1121  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: November 23, 2016, 06:51:39 AM
I don't know why but I always get a feeling to gamble, after then losing my money, I quit for some time and then continue, but I know I will lose my btc Sad

Why is it so addictive?

I know why gambling so addicting, I think because we always have hope of winning big in short time..
If we lose it makes us want to get back what we lost..

when greed hits you that is what will definitely happen because you are trying to make big money with just a short period of time you will end up losing, this attitude will constantly gives loss not profit you need to be patient and to be in a limitation and should never go back quickly after a loss because I guess you are less likely to retrieve all money you have loss.
1122  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin help poor countries? on: November 23, 2016, 06:40:30 AM
Not just hard working people, in order to help them we first need the proper infrastructure, that includes proper household, good internet connectivity and minimum knowledge of the bitcoin network along with its advantages and disadvantages.

It is very tough to get this done in poor countries, considering the sheer fact that they are "poor".

It is hard to believe, but even in the poorest nations, a majority of the urban dwellers have access to internet and smartphones. The situation has changed a lot in the past 5-6 years. If Bitcoin takes advantage of this rapid transformation, then it can evolve as a truly universal currency. 

if ever they has smartphones and also an internet access so they have the opportunity to adopt bitcoin but for sure most people in the third world countries doesn't have the same stuff maybe they have smartphone but i don't know how many of them has internet access and I guess these people will be having a hard time to discover and understand how bitcoin works.
1123  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Great way to make Bitcoin! on: November 23, 2016, 05:32:36 AM
i think joining a signature campaign is the great way of earning bitcoin.

participating with signature campaign could be also good way to earn bitcoin but for me there are lots of other ways that is best for earning bitcoin not only signature campaign and when we say great way of earning it means that these certain activities can make you earn such huge amount that is larger than what you can spend so meaning to say earning from signature campaign is not yet a great way but still it is a good source of extra income while you are learning here in forum.
1124  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: So, why do we need to use Bitcoin? on: November 23, 2016, 05:21:19 AM
It's a matter of free choice, you have the possibility to choose between Bitcoin, fiat currency, or both. But if you're looking for good reasons to use Bitcoin, I think one of the reasons is that Bitcoin can protect you against inflation, since the system was designed for this. The other reasons are convenience to use it, and the possibility of having more control over your own money, since it's a decentralized form of payment.
Another reason is no government backs your coins so no government has any claim on your coins unlike fiat, so the bitcoins in your wallet are yours and only yours to do as you wish with them.

and your money in bitcoin is distant from the big taxes, as what you have said the government has no control to your bitcoin and they cannot manipulate it also they do not have the access to your bitcoin wallet information. the advantage of using bitcoin is that it seems like bitcoin is letting us to manage our own bank.
1125  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is CHINA CONTROLLING Bitcoin? on: November 23, 2016, 04:29:03 AM
I'm come from china, but I'm not sure that China can controlling Bitcoin. When I was in a public area, I never found the discussion about bitcoin. even now I still have not found the Bitcoin ATM, it seems this assumption is wrong.

I don't think that have a lot of ATMs in the world so it don't mean much.

Probably most bitcoins are with few people(big miners) and that's why you don't see too much people talking about however for sure China have a better adoption then others countries.

I've tried to find a Bitcoin ATM using the wallet app before then I've found that most of the Bitcoin ATM are in china especially in Hong Kong by the way maybe you haven't seen or heard some people discussing about bitcoin but it really seems that china has a large mining owned by few people but i am not saying that china has a control on bitcoin .
1126  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What are the main problems bitcoiners face? on: November 23, 2016, 03:13:51 AM
I am conducting a sort of survey on what we all see as problems in the bitcoin community.

I hope to spark an open discussion that eventually reaches a consensus.

We should probably focus on only the top 7, or maybe top 10, 5 etc...

What are the MAIN problems you face, or you have seen others face, with bitcoin?





I will list what I think are the top problems. NOTE that these are my personal opinions...
1. Still not adopted by enough of the masses to appear in local businesses
2. Too many god damn scam websites,
3. Coinbase closed my account for no reason, a law should exist to prevent businesses denying individuals key services
4. Coinbase currently is the only way to automatically send RECURRING bitcoin payments - recurring transactions a must
5. no transparent, openly white hat bounty hacker police for problem #2 - an internet police white hat hacker network would be nice

"Identifying problems leads to solutions to those problems.
I have the passion and drive to find people who can solve said problems.
Thank you for any input you may have to offer. Long live Bitcoin!"
~ The King

the only problem that I've always complain is that bitcoin is not yet adopted by other local businesses and the only way to use and spend it is to cash it out  into fiat and so far nothing else aside from that. i do not bother myself to those scam websites as I am not F*ckin dealing with them.
1127  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: experiences of BitMaker? on: November 22, 2016, 06:12:54 AM
Any experiences of the satoshi generator BitMaker? Claims on it's website to have paid out a total of over 150 btc  Shocked

This article seems to have had a good experience: http://bitcoinbabble.weebly.com/bitmaker.html

What you guys think?
I have tried BitMaker long time ago and for right now i don't use it, because in my experience it is just waste my time and i didn't not got enough bitcoins, it is like other faucets that give small amount of bitcoins and all of faucets is like that.  Grin

of course because BitMaker is also considered a faucet that doesn't need to solve a captcha it only shows up ads that you should play for a certain seconds/minute so we should expect something big from as the developer of that app isn't gaining big profit from his creation. actually it ain't a waste of time as it helps newbie to earn some amount during their hard time to make enough profit.
1128  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: is it possible to hack your bitcoin from your wallet? on: November 22, 2016, 06:00:51 AM
definitely yes, it is possible to hack your wallet and took away your bitcoin if you have been attacked by a phisher/phishing sites therefore some services including blockchain is advising us to secure our wallet with a passphrase and two factor authentication in order to be safe from the hackers because with 2FA it is very impossible for unknown person to access your wallet.
1129  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to win gambling with no lose? on: November 22, 2016, 05:37:41 AM
You can't. It is impossible to win in gambling and be on the plus always with no losses. Gambling is not made so you can make money, it is made so the casinos or sites can earn money from you throwing it away on gambling. If you win once, do not think you can win again, you will just lose money trying to make more.

lmao. it seems like it is the real thing that happened, we think that the casinos/gambling sites are only having a benefits of from us betting our money on gambling but i'm sure that it isn't because i think while you are losing your money there are some people who gaining profit as they win. but you are right once they won from gambling it is not a good sign that they will win again at second time Grin
1130  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your aim in gambling???? on: November 22, 2016, 05:18:23 AM
Well, personally i just gamble sometimes for fun and i haven't the intention to make real profit from gambling. Gambling should be treated as a play not really solid source of income

True, and people should not took it seriously when they are gambling as it should not be treated as a source of income because it is only supposed to be for entertainment and leisure. but it contradicts the reality because most people do not actually looking for fun or entertainment but they already treated it as a source of income.
1131  Other / Off-topic / Re: How kids can "earn" Bitcoin ? on: November 22, 2016, 05:06:22 AM
They don't. Kids should not spend their time in earning bitcoin. They should rather focus on their studies.
they actually can but there is no reason to allow them do that because it would most probably be really boring and kids wouldnt like doing that for sure

Kids likes to have fun with their friends and family, so I don't think they will show any interest in earning bitcoins and they may also find it complicated.

I agree, they will be having a hard time to understand how bitcoin was working and how they can make it into real money although some kids want to earn money but teaching them to earn bitcoin will be very complicated for them even they do know how to use and explore the internet so they will end up losing their interest to earn bitcoin. let them be a child and have fun with their family and friends because they will never go back once they reached their adulthood.
1132  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you consider trading as gambling? on: November 22, 2016, 04:51:21 AM
I do not consider same because their different ways of losing in the sense that in gambling the chances of me losing is higher which could also be unfair, even after the "provably fair" slogan and I could not verify or I'm not even sure of that unlike trading when I lose, then I know I'm not the only in the box and I can even win back my losses overnight unlike gambling...

Well in both you are playing against others, being just a casino script or whales, as you are putting your coins into a risk i would consider the same, even knowing a small difference between, that is be able to control the loss or winnings when you risking to gamble.
Base on facts, in gambling we have a less chance of winning while trading we have a great chance of becoming successful if and only we will have to work for it. In gambling it's different as most of time you rely on luck but in trading you cannot rely on luck alone as the more you are knowledgeable you will develop your skills.

yeah I think so, we have more chances and more possible to earn from trading than gambling because when it comes to gambling we are more depending to our luck not to knowledge, method or experience and that three aspects are more needed when it comes to trading i know that when we are dealing with that two we surely need luck but we can see it obviously that they are really different from each other.
1133  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Buying Drugs with Bitcoin ? on: November 22, 2016, 04:28:37 AM
Never touched drugs in my life. (Actually if you want to be technical I have had pharmaceutical medicinal drugs). I would never buy it with Bitcoin, fiat or anything. Drugs are very harmful, even medicinal drugs are not exactly beneficial to your health. Smiley

Same here,  even on my dreams  i wont  intent to try drugs. As you mentioned medicines do really have drugs but it would effect only if you do take  excessive amounts of it and get overdosed. Buying drugs with  bitcoins is possible  and its  commonly used on the dark market  , bitcoins  is the main currency there  because of its anonymity features thats why syndicates and criminals do often use it  in able not to traced so easily.

Yeah, all the things that you are indeed correct. That drugs are very bad thing and something that will ruin our lives and also will not provide hope on the descent we get better. because of the addictive drugs we definitely won't have a good thought that dna can cause interference on mental our descendants while talking with us. Better do something thing better than having to make or consume the drug
I agree, drugs are really bad for your health and your mental condition and by using bitcoin to buy drugs you will provoke the government to ban bitcoin, so please stop using bitcoin to do illegal things, some people depends on bitcoin to stabilize their economics condition, if the government ban the coin it will affected their life

it has mixed with so many dangerous chemicals so it could be bad for individual's health but mental health is the real concern for the users of these illegal drugs especially when they had excessive use, there are possibilities that they would commit different kinds of wrong doing/crime such as robbery, rape, murder etc. by the way if he/they want to buy illegal drugs with bitcoin then it's their choice just to make sure that they will never be caught by the authorities.

lmao. Grin eating a dead tree's root or plant leaves will be my last option i will choose to become a herbivore just like other animals but if ever i am at the situation where i have nothing to eat but human meat in order to survive maybe i would rather die than to do something disgusting i don't want to live like a cannibal.
1135  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Drug free in the Philippines on: November 21, 2016, 06:56:58 PM
He is now in economy. He doing it for the betterment of the country because he knows that Philippines will be rise soon. Philippines will take a lead in Asia when the time comes. And it is good to see that in the future. I hope I will be the one feel that development.

lmao. you should hope that all Filipinos will feel the development of the country as far as I know all Filipino are hoping for it to happen and most of them believing that president Duterte will give his best effort to do what he promised but of course he can do it with our support and cooperation, we need to be disciplined if we really want a change for our country it is not only the President's job but all citizens of the Philippines.

russians did the same in the second war

yeah they did it during the world war II but it is not only the Russia who did this tactics but all of the member countries of the soviet union and i think they did different way of using dogs to carry a bomb and the only purpose of these dogs is to drop a bomb near the Tanks and then the soviet will detonate it but I have no idea what happened to the dogs after that Grin
1137  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: The best cloud mining site !!! on: November 21, 2016, 06:35:35 PM
If you hear the different advice you will realize that this is not the best way to invest in cryptocurrencies. There are options that can give better returns, just by holding or trading, but we need to put some effort into it.

yeah. there's a lot of advice posted here in this thread so he should be aware now about these cloud mining websites but it will still be his choice if he's going to put his money to some service so we should just let him decide and let him try some such as hashnest or hashflare but just a friendly reminder if you are afraid to lose so much then you should not put an amount of money that you are afraid to lose.
1138  Other / Archival / Re: Do you know legit websites to buy cigarettes online? on: November 21, 2016, 06:25:55 PM
Suddenly, i just wondered recently who does the OP need to buy cigarettes online when he can buy on their local stores or grocery ? is it more cheap to buy online than to buy on local stores ? actually i am a slight  smoker but i really don't how much price would it be for one carton here in our local stores. I've seen on CigSpot website that the price of one carton of marlboro reds is $36 it could be cheaper.
1139  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Cloud mining with Hashflare still profitable on: November 21, 2016, 06:09:47 PM
Still, Hashflare cloud mining ROI is not even close to profits users can achieve with other types of bitcoin investment methods.
I am talking about casino bankroll investments, they seem to be far more better option: after 3 months you can achieve return of 43% in the best case (BetKing investment)

Reference: http://bitcoingamblingreviews.com/bitcoin-gambling-investments-312/

We all know that there is no legit cloudmining. I learned from my mistakes on the past. Just dump it. It is better to gamble rather than invest on cloud mining site that run byy anonymous group of person that you didn't even know if they really have mining farm Grin

very well said, I also prefer betting rather than investing on cloud mining services it really feels good to have passive income but it is not going with for a lifetime as we all know that it is actually operated by unknown group with no possible proof of mining farm. So much better to risk on gambling rather than risking on cloud mining.
1140  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Any tips im new in trading on: November 20, 2016, 10:51:45 AM
any tips there guys im new in trading

edit: also best altcoin to invest

try to read some article regarding trading/alt coin trading you should learn a lot of things about it as alt coin trading is very risky because cannot totally predict its price movements whether it will be pumped or dumped i don't know what will be the best alt coin to invest but try to find an active alt coin to invest or check it if there are many people who are buying that certain alt coin just an opinion.

don't trust anybody, that is my mistake to believe people who said to hold my coins , after i hold my coins he dumped his coins and i'm not sell mine yet

it feels like i have been a victim of this same tactics and i have been on the same situation where i bought an alt coin and then she sold hers. Grin
