So that's pretty sums up who's who are embracing or adopting bitcoins around the world....

I remember it vividly. Here's how it goes: I decided to invest my precious btc to a btc investor site. Got their wallet address and then I click "send". My btc then went to 0. After a few minutes I checked my account in the company and still it's still not credited. I got nervous and then doubts sets in. Waited a few more minutes and still not there so I panicked and don't know what to do and its already like 1:00 am our local time however I can't sleep because I don't know what happened. However, I decided to check blockchain.info to see what going on. Only that time that I understand that I have to wait for few more minutes or hour to get my btc to my btc invest account. So I took a nap and then viola, it was already there. I was so happy then so the next time I try to send, I just stay patience and not worry about it like I did the first time. 

Landline based casino area already saturated, that's why some of them are going on-line now.
But online btc games are not yet saturated. Go for dice game!!!I think its the most profitable games right now. But In order to actually make it these days you need a site with a lot of features, no downtime, a great customer support and an new idea. Good Luck!!!

IMHO, Travis Browne can be a legit heavyweight contender still. His problem is more of a mental thing.  I still remember his KO's win over Barnett, Gonzaga and Overeem, wicked elbows!!!. I hope he can still recover his old form and win against Lewis so that he can still prove that he still has some in his tank and a win would obviously put his name in the title contention for the HW title in the future.

Portland overcame a 21-point deficit to make the game interesting, but Evan Turner missed a corner three-pointer at the buzzer to ensure a Golden State win.  P.S. I also had my money on Portland, so lost also!!!

Went to the casino for 2 days won big then went home. The next day try to play again but lost including my bankroll!!!.

In our country we also have similar betting system as yours, we call it WTA or winner take all. Its like 7 out of 7. Horse racing here is almost everyday  . I always had the same experience as yours like every month at least I got 6 out of 7 although I get some consolation price if If no one won 7 out of 7 and if you got 6/7 winners.

The main reason? "Money".

They don't want to go to stocks because they can't afford it. If they have the money, they won't invest it because they think it is a gamble so they fear that they will loss their money. While others won't because they don't understand it. simple as that. Or they believe that stock markets is not the place to get rich. Some have other prioritize like homes, cars and their children's education before they are willing to go to invest into something.

If bitcoin become accessible to traditional investors and mass adoption then I speculate that the price of bitcoin could reach 2100 USD. I think stability and wider participation are more important for the long term to get the price increasing to 1600 USD then slowly getting to 2000 USD at the end of the year.

Perhaps he just wanted to stay out of the public press and be private in real life. Its like winning a jackpot, you should never exposed yourself because you will fear for your life. So keeping a low profile keeps you out of danger. Going public would mean giving up his privacy and paying large sum of money because of taxes.

I don't think he will convert this fiat because he know he will be caught.. The only likely scenario is to a bitcoin mixing services. The question is who's mixing services would accomodate such tainted bitcoins?

I was in the world of Internet Marketing before so Bitcoin was always at my radar. Got involved again last year and Bitcoin was introduced to me by someone and I joined this forum. This forum then really strike my addiction to Bitcoin because of the discussions, debate and the knowledge you can gain just by browsing thru the thread. Someday, I wanna go to a Bitcoin convention and meet other cyptho enthusiast as well.

I know a friend who invested in a gambling site but I don't know how much he invest. Last time I checked with him, he said he already withdraw his invested because he is not happy on the ROI for a month. He said he got between 98-100% of his investment. So that's a month of investment and the return is 100%.

I think Nadal vs Federer will be much more exciting. 2 players with multiple titles and experience behind them. I will have to pick Nadal because he is really playing amazing and the momentum though we dont know if he has still some in his tank after his gruelling win over Dimitrov, but still I have Nadal in a classic win to win the AO 2017.

If this has to happen, I think a lot of programmers would love to continue and take over the coding and probably improve it. Its open-source so I think a lot of programmers are currently contributing aside from the core/dev team. Merging and testing are another thing, but if is unlikely scenario would have happen, bitcoin will still continue to exist and who knows in the future.

Initially, criminals think that they can get away and because they think it anonymous and can't be track. But, they are dead wrong. Example is the creator of Silk Road, he thinks trading and selling illegal drugs in the dark market is ok, however he was caught and sentence to life imprisonment. However, I still believe that majority of bitcoin user are law-abiding people. Only a few just manage to take advantage of it.

I'll pick DC to win again. DC has proven that he has a iron-chin and can take Johnson punch as evident in their first fight. Cormier should be able to mix in his strikes, clinch, and takedowns enough to grind it out again, enough to take advantage either standing or with takedowns. Plus Rumble is not known for conditioning and will easily gas it out similar to their first fight. DC by decision.

Dislodging Bitcoin is a difficult task but not unachievable. There have been a lot of other alt currencies (litecoin, etc) that have been popping up, but don't seem to have what Bitcoin does. I think down the road potentially, it may replaced bitcoin. Although, we must not forget that it’s been just a few years since the bitcoin came into existence and there’s still a long way to go.

By joining sig campaign you can earn btc because you will be paid by the advertiser. After all, it is important to post constructive things which add to the conversation, and not easy as you think. Investing but if you are don't have the skills, knowledge and time you might end up losing your money.
