Nothing wrong with comparing Bitcoin to Paypal... if the right "aspects" are used. It is already very close to matching market cap and will maybe reach it this year, of course not everyone agrees that market cap is a good thing to compare.
But Bitcoin is still so far behind with merchant use, not to mention transaction time. This is what is still the big gap for crypto.

A small sum of each Bitcoin, Ethereum and maybe one of the POS coins would be a very nice gift. It should not be a lot of coins or they won't appreciate the value of it. Something that can get them started but small enough it will not spoil them.
P.S. teach them to spell carefully also

It's quite amazing to see this is almost four years old... amazing because I only heard about it from reading this thread. If circulating numbers for this coin is fixed... then what happens when all coins have been mined? I see all of you posters support the coin: tell me honestly, is it too late for us who want to join now and maybe will only have a small amount?

You spent $132 to get your 4 ether. I would sell 1 ether to recoup your capital (yes! that was your capital!) and keep that as proper savings. You will have 3 eth left, which you can continue to hold or diversify into Bitcoin (I really think you should!). Whatever happens after this, you have already made profits - always keep something to save, and never all in one place.

I didn't have very good experiences trying to "spread" Bitcoin knowledge. One guy who worked in banking started asking me all sorts of technical questions and after admitting I didn't know, he happily said I was proof people who used Bitcoin know nothing about real money workings.
I try not to bring it up if no one is talking about it:)

NVO wants to be fair with the whole crypto community, either Altcoins or Bitcoin.
The large investors who are looking for early bonus have to understand that the strengh of a currency comes from it's community, NVO isn't here to create social divisions, NVO is here to serve everyone from smallest to largest. Do not forget that 90% of the community tested at least once a faucet to understand bitcoin by micro payments.
This is something that will resound with a lot of people like me. I am definitely part of that 90% of community who was curious to try Bitcoin and of course got my first payments after a few days of using a faucet. I am sure 90% are also like me who don't have much and are waiting so long for a chance to put our small coins into something we can share equally if it grows. NVO looks like one of this, and I am very close to making the decision to make it my first "real" choice for supporting.

Back in bitvest after a few days missing. Chain for quest is broken but happy to see that the margin bankroll is now almost 2k BTC. That's at least 4 million USD right there! Well done all:)

It's the age old question isn't it? And we will keep asking this as the price keeps going up. I wonder when is enough though. 3k? 5k? 10k? It was 4,600 in Korea and still there wasn't enough to go round!

Decrypto - people who decry the use of neologisms in cryptography.
E.g. Call me a decrypto if you want but immutabledger sounds as silly as Brangelina.
(pulling your leg, but this is funny)

Why $1 million, when it can be $1,000 or $1? Predictions should not be taken seriously even if they are from big personalities (or in fact, especially if they are from big personalities:) ).
Should we not buy if 90% people predict $100? Should we buy if 90% people predict $1 million? No and no:)

Not just those feature has the other site. You can also played with altcoin on them and there are people suggesting it to pd but I guess it's no need to add such feature, btc to play with is enough.
Although, at least one altcoin would be nice, which can be exchanged to BTC inside the system. Nowadays a lot of gamblers will deposit or withdraw with the alt and gamble with BTC. Why? Simple. Fast confirmation and cheap fee. Nobody likes waiting even 30 minutes for 300 sat/byte fee tx now!

Quite pleased to see the devs active in responding. I'm *really* very interested in the decentralised wallet/exchange. The problems of Gox and others in the past caused me to stay away from exchanges with large deposits before.

Just to announce, I made it into the big leagues with a very nice Level 0 Tag. A big thank you to very generous nbit and badger for your games which funded my wagering streak! Up next is 0.05 man that seems so far away.

Hope they all wake up as not doing anything at all on this scaling problem can be liken to killing the goose that lays the golden eggs. Right now, miners are so happy with the turn of events...who would have thought that the same problem can bring them windfall of profits? It is on their favor if no solution can be done for now. But this situation is almost reaching a boiling point and miners should not wait for that to happen. They should wake up on their senses and unite with all stakeholders now to stop the mountain of clogs right now.
Exactly... it's so strange to see that each problem Bitcoin has faced this year has resulted in the price only getting higher... or maybe it is just simply that nothing can seem to stop the rise. I have mixed feelings. Happy that my small amounts are worth more but not so that I cannot go out and get more. Let's hope August really sees SW.

OK I am a very normal user of Bitcoin. How will this decision affect people like me? How will we know what to do or which decision to take (if we are allowed to make a choice)? Are we supposed to do anything?

Wow 60% profit in one hour. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Time to deposit 10 BTC and retire this year, no? Let's see how many hours this strategy lasts before variance eventually busts you:)

You have to do better than this to prove it isn't a scam. All the other details you provide sound exactly like what other hyip scams are like. Why tour and ask all us small people for our money? If you are a legitimate company, go for the big exchangers and miners. 1% a day is double in 2 months and 10 days compounded.

I guess for people like me, we don't have enough means to store wealth and in fact even if I can get 0.1 BTC it is worth more than my salary. So it's simple. I just keep collecting what I can find. I recently reached my personal target of 0.01 and have just joined a campaign.
Maybe one day I come back and vote for #2:)

I can't believe I have never seen this site even though it's more than 4 years old now! And looks like I also missed out on a great giveaway. Considering now if I should add another dice site to my daily visits... I already spend so much time on them:)

Hi! Am very happy to have been accepted on my first signature campaign promoting NVO. It's got a good concept but the only thing I would like to see is support for at least a few other major alts. BTC, ETH and XRP are great except I don't have any ETH but that doesn't mean I won't consider moving over to a new wallet.
Good luck - let's hope we see more competition in decentralised exchange.
