The script is BS, and will lead to your account being banned, if the house figures out what you doing. In any way, why would someone give out the script to other people? If you knew about a way to earn FREE money, would you share that secret with the world, and risk losing that opportunity when someone notice it and close that loophole?

It's just a scam to get people to pay for worthless information, so just ignore it. ^hmmmm^

You will always have naysayers and pessimists in this world. They said the same thing about the internet and look where we are today. These people are even pessimistic about bigger companies like Microsoft and Dell and Apple, so it's nothing new for us to have negative statements being released about a early/experimental technology like Bitcoin.

Just ignore these people, and join the positive people with a vision for the future. Talk positive on forums and on social media and the people will come. ^smile^

Bitcoin will only be allowed in some countries, if these governments can have some sort of control. They have a duty towards their voters to protect them as consumers, even though they forget that role, when it comes to banks. In some sense regulation would help merchants to adopt Bitcoin quicker, because they will not accept a currency, if there are no future for that currency and they will lose money from this endeavor. ^hmmm^

The scaling question will always be with us, and I am not sure the solutions provided by the Core developers at this stage, would manage to handle such a load. To be honest, I doubt if even one of the other currencies would be able to serve that role. Yes, they can print money without limits, but people like diversity and own identity; so I doubt if this will ever work.

In a way you are 100% correct. Bitcoin will only be useful, if people still use it. If you take gold for instance, it has two of the same characteristics as Bitcoin, namely :
~ Store of value < People investing to store the value of their wealth >
~ Currency & commodity < People still trade with gold, even if that has been diminished over time >
Bitcoin might take the same route, if one of these characteristics are watered down over time, and only one remain to keep Bitcoin going. ^smile^

Agreed, but he is still young and needs to concentrate on his education, rather than concentrating too much on making money online. My kids started this project at school, introducing people to faucets. < Pimping their referral link > This quickly took off in school and in no time, they built up a sizable faucet referral network.

They now earn passive income, without having to solve a single Captha. Very impressive indeed. ^smile^

Something we need is for someone to create a online site, where you can post photo's of coins and then professional numismatists can for a fee, determine the value of these coins and then offer to buy or sell it. I think there are millions of people, with coins in their cupboards, who do not know how valuable these coins are.

I have collected many coins over the years and the books on the valuations of these coins are mostly outdated or do not offer proper information on the grading of the coins. Do you know of any site that offer this service online? 

I think gambling touch the most basic instincts of many people, and that is the release of powerful endorphin in the brain, when they get exited. These chemicals primary function were to inject adrenaline into the system, when people were threatened in nature.

Lately no real threat has pushed people to release this adrenaline in their every day life, because we are at the top of the food chain, so people get a taste of that rush, when they take risks in gambling and then get addicted to that feeling. This push them to take bigger and bigger risks, to increase the release of this reactions in the brain, and they get addicted even more, until it get out of control. 

  

I have see a similar concept somewhere with Bitcoin, where the low quality image were shown and then the users pay small quantities to receive the higher quality pictures. You also have online streaming sites, where people place content on the internet, and then in the back end, the user can distribute the income to the contributors in percentages as predetermined between, say the photographer or the producer and the person posting the content.

This can help, to decrease piracy, if a content provider can offer this material cheaper online, and then have millions of people paying small percentages to the creator of the content, bypassing all the middlemen that makes this so expensive.

I agree with you OP, the verification process is a burden. The type of information being needed to verify and also the process to send this electronically to some of these services, really bugs me too. That information has to be stored in digital form on a centralized server, and will allow, when hacked <because it will happen> people to create fake accounts in your name on other services.

This kills all pseudo-anonymity Bitcoin has for the user of this technology. Where did Satoshi say, we need to link real identities to the Blockchain? The banks and financial systems and their governments force this onto people.   

We can debate this until we grow very old, but the point is this. The can can only be kicked down the road, until the road ends. At some time in the future, once everything have been tried to bypass the block size problem, it will have to be increased. Only time will tell, when this situation will be forced and not asked for by the people. ^smile^

The road will end soon, LN and side-chains will not be the ultimate solution. 

People have a way to circumvent things they do not want to conform to, be it in the form of formal protests or riots or just creating applications to bypass these restrictions. We have several examples of this, private VPN's / Tor / p2p networks and also Crypto currencies.

In the end, these people are voted into these positions and they can also be removed from these positions, if they do not conform to the needs of the people. ^smile^

If the discussion is based on a question, if Bitcoin should be used by this or that religion, I figure it should be allowed. Bitcoin is just as border less when it comes to real borders, than it is to religious borders. If someone decides tomorrow, based on wrong information that a specific religion should not use Bitcoin, it would influence the whole community.

We should debate and discuss the merits of the use of the technology, not the differences between the religion. We all use different currencies, but it can be exchanged for other currencies. 

The highest earning for random stuff online, makes about $5 to $10 per week. For example signature campaigns and faucets combined. The best option for you will be to find a job that pay in fiat and then to convert that into BTC or to ask that employer to pay you in BTC with the help for 3rd party services that does that. <Bitwage??>

Online jobs paying for micro tasks does not pay very well unfortunately. ^hmmm^

Do you still take that self-proclaimed shit seriously? Roger Ver cannot turn around now, and say he supports Core, because he created a whole alternative forum for people who are against it. He now profits from this venture with the  hosting of a Casino from the same site.

His whole angle seems to be for profitability and what he can get out of the deal. I would think twice before I follow him into oblivion, like the disciples on his site. ^smile^

The power produced from the process you described would offset against the extra cost it would require for more cooling. The higher temperature requires more cooling and cancels out the production of cheaper electricity. Most of these Chinese miners are located in cooler regions and combined with cheaper electricity, they will still have the edge over any other operation.

So you allowed to trade with Bitcoin, but you not allowed to earn interest from the currency you use? Interresting So what happens with volatility, if the price goes up? Is this not seen as interest? Do your religion prohibit interest from commodities too or only from commodities where illegal goods are concerned?

Sound very complex and restrictive to me. ^hmmmmm^

Nobody can see into the future, but we can learn from the past and make predictions for the future based on that. We know from experience that disruptive technologies takes time and much resistance. Bitcoin compared to other technologies are still in it's early days, but it's growing very fast.

Most other technologies like radio, telephones and the internet took many years to penetrate and make a difference. Bitcoin also have some strong competition.

The volatility can count in your favor too, if you only sell BTC when the price increase. So this is not a big problem, if you have enough reserved funds to tap from, if the price is low. I am lucky, because I have a part-time hobby where some of the goods produced from that, also generates income in BTC.

So you do not have to be paid in Bitcoin for a extra job or even paid from your primary employer in Bitcoin, but you can generate a BTC income from your hobbies too. ^smile^

Why do you need more detail than this? It is clear from what he posted that Bitcoin mining will never be profitable with this. We use specialized Asic chips now to do the mathematical calculations for Bitcoin mining, and CPU's and GPU's will yield ZERO results, because the difficulty are much too high for computers to mine.

You could visit the mining section of this forum, and see if you can mine some Alt coin with it, but the value of these Alt coins are so low, it might not even pay for your electricity once you done. ^hmmmmm^
