With the current trend in bitcoin prices, it's much better if you buy bitcoin in the past days than today but still if you really believe then take the guts of buying it. Investing in BTC is worth to rake the risk than other risky method. Don't just monitored the prices. Act now.

Just buy an amount you can afford to lose and see what its worth in a year or two



Investing in bitcoin is intense and stressful. Patience is really need if someone want to invest in btc as it may take time to see the ouput. The output is noticeable over a year and if the bitcoin economic is on the rise, one can feel it less than a year.

i feel we need to hit 320~350 to say the down trend is broken

I will be happy with $300 (if it is maintained).  Smiley

i will agree on you with this hope to see it goes little up but not to go down if this happen price might be going to below 200 and i hope that this will hot happen

Stability is really important. Let's just hope that price are maintained around $300 and not that much down. After the holding period at that range I can see bitcoin will push forward much more up to $500 mark in the next 2 years.

Carders were one good example of criminals that loves bitcoin as they used to buy stuffs with hacked credit cards then sell it to someone with bitcoin as payment.

That's why the legal status of bitcoin varies from country to country and is still undefined because of that illegitimate use of bitcoin. Monitoring the possibility of bitcoin usage in money laundering and other illegal purposes are really the first priority by them rather than the benefits of bitcoin is. This is the reason why regulating bitcoin in some Central Bank per country is not yet present at the moment.

Yes if we have to based the current and past movement of the bitcoin price this month, rising even @ $400 mark is possible. But IMO the important here is we must hold longer @ $300 mark before jumping to much high prices.

Yap its better to have double investments.we never know when would our worst time. i am on my to becoming a teacher and i think i wont have time to be with u guys but i also dont want to waste the opportunities that is within here. Smiley

I'm constantly accumulating (when I manage to earn some) and holding (never sold a single satoshi for FIAT currency): bitcoin is my complementary retirement plan ...or somethiing to leave as inherit to kids

That's really nice. I'm not saying I have enough coins to to think of it as a retirement plan or as somethiing to leave as inheritance to kids, but I also never sold a single satoshi for FIAT currency and I'm not going to in the near future. The less people sell the higher the price.

I'm constantly accumulating (when I manage to earn some) and holding (never sold a single satoshi for FIAT currency): bitcoin is my complementary retirement plan ...or somethiing to leave as inherit to kids

Awesome you managed to hold your bitcoin with no single satoshis converted to your fiat currency. Well with the current price kick I think the value of your saved satoshis now have grown a lot. Keep it up and hope for more price kick in the future that will sure gave you a big money.

Thanks for your replies. First of all I don't have enough coins as well for that plan....at the actual value; my hope is they will go higher and higher, to da moon and higher  Grin

Then I will enjoy my retirement plan or give a huge gift to kinds and nephews.

Maybe I'm too much optimistic but ,hey, you can't win if you aren't in  Wink

How much is enough? Smiley

Well considering you didn't convert your satoshis into your fiat currency since you entered bitcoin world (that's a long time ago since you are a Hero rank now), I will guessed that you have a nice value of bitcoin right now (except you experienced the $1000 mark). Good thing to you unlike others like me, you are able to save it 100%. In my case I used bitcoin in some of my spendings so sometimes I can't feel the price kick lol.

Maybe at the moment their busy with some other matters that need full attention and that's why they can't give us a sub-forum, perhaps some interference with the development of the new forum... And if the problem would be the translation of the sub section, i'm sure many would help to contribute on that matter and to the last known problem ( who should be the Mod? ), If the problem is not so many active high ranks then maybe some Could contact those members to come back and help the sub-forum being built and if not enough perhaps some sort of voting to who be ( If ever there will be a sub-forum built )

IMO the moderator should be very active not only now when it is needed in the subforum and even if there are high ranking and know the rules well but not active in the local then its wrong again, he should have time to spend in the local so why choose a user that is not really active there? And voting isnt really needed as the position is need to be a trusted user

Look like you are just posting and not reading. Can't you read sbgovac last post? It can discuss later if ever the subsection will be on hand. Also he said that Croatian board got their moderator later after they have been granted their own section. And how did you know that our Pinoy high rank are not active today? You are just making conclusion that they are not active. Are you basing for their daily post to be consider as active?

I am a filipino. Can you tell who is active and high ranked user that is active in the local board? Even Dabs isnt active right? I mostly see member and full members for almost 1week now, Sr members are less than 3 in all active users there. Im just saying the truth, no offence buddy

Is this your first forum to visit kabayan??? Activity of a user like posting in a local thread is really not a basis (perhaps in every forum) for a user to be considered as INACTIVE. And for your example, Dabs last activity is October 23. And he is not the only one qualified for being a mod. Im not posting too much in the local thread too but I watched it everyday, let's say Im a legendary rank now, so you can consider my status as inactive?  And FYI not all moderators are legendary and need to be high rank as long as it is trusted like you said.

Nahhhh no worries and even that's a truth Im not a kid that can offend easily with that small thing Im just post because you are mislead in some of the post.

Edit : You edit your post thats why I didnt answer the last part. Well our topic is moderator. Dont include other matters here you are out of line with the discussion I replied of. I posted because of the moderator thing that you post.

Sitting stable at $290+ range is the best here. Even it doesn't reached $300 at the end of month, it's good that isn't lowering much at the said range. All factor about the price movement is really interesting. This will test the skill of some traders out there.
13551  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: People become believers when they see you pay IRL on: October 27, 2015, 05:33:22 PM
So my friend was in Canada and it was really cold, none of his friends had change, he had some Bitcoin in his phone. Happened to find a place where they would accept BTC. He bought some coffees and warm chocolate and invited all of his friends with it. A quick payment into the guy's Bitcoin address which was printed in a piece of paper, delivered a nice breakfast for him and all his friends. Then they understood how Bitcoin is money no matter what others might say. They stopped seeing it as some geek weird thing. I think using Bitcoin in real life in return of some useful service in front of clueless guys that still think it's not real money, is a great way to teach them how Bitcoin is very real and the real party hasn't even begun yet. Thats why we must never forget about the importance of small transactions like those. Buying some coffee in exchange of Bitcoin impressed them more than any of the revolutionary protocol tech stuff you could explain them.

I had the same experience on a lunch appointment with some clients. I took them out for lunch and I paid with Bitcoin. They were very amazed and intrigued and we extended the

lunch to talk about Bitcoin. I helped them to setup a wallet and transferred some coins to them and to thank me, they paid with Bitcoin for some desert.

Out of the three of them, two still use their wallet regularly. { I still have their Bitcoin addresses, because I transferred coins to their wallets, so I can check up on them }  Grin

Im really amazed with both of your story. What a nice place there. Directly accepting bitcoin in some of your physical stores there just like how fiat is moving. Hope someday my country will have that too. Even bitcoin debit card are not accepted here afaik. The only good thing here there are lots of online merchants here accepting bitcoin and converting our btc's to fiat is just one click away. Hope physical store here are will adopt bitcoin payment too.
13552  Economy / Speculation / Re: Next target: 260-270 on: October 27, 2015, 05:18:26 PM
time to update the thread title OP, we are entering the $300 level  Grin
you can forget about the $260 - $270 rate for now since I have't seen $270 for the passed few days

Currently quiet stable @ around $288-$295 mark.

Yes it's too far now from the target in this thread title. Still kicking and I see price will rise to $300 mark at end of this month. Actually it already reached today in other exchanges but not stable so let's see if we can hold $300 mark after this month.

It is only few dollars away from the next target of 300.
I think with a little pump the price of 300 can be reached easily.
What i am worried is about the altcoin which exchange rate has been decreased.

Well for me it doesn't matter as long as it not throughly down. I want to see the kick of bitcoin price than other altcoin since bitcoin is tested for years and those promising coins are just promising. Need more development to surpass what bitcoin is now.
13553  Other / Off-topic / Re: DO YOU HAVE 1 BITCOIN? on: October 27, 2015, 05:16:15 PM
yess i have 1BTC some day ago
but i sell it ~0.8 now i have only ~0.3

i split it to some address (paper wallet)  Grin
Why did you sell it? We are about to cross 300.... bad move in my opinion. I think people should hold their Bitcoins for 10+ years, of course not everyone is willing to wait that much to sell some, but if you are too impatient you will regret. Wait at least until 2016 Q2 to see where we are at with the halving, everything else is losing money pretty much guaranteed.

Well it isn't a bad move if someone really needs to convert it in fiat for really a serious purposes. Like in my case, I always monitored price everyday when it reached @ $260 just a month ago then now it's near $300 mark. I see bitcoin price will rise and today it's happening. But I used some of my btc because I purchased something important and I really need to buy it now. If people will just convert it fiat with no general purpose then that's what you called a bad move and a wasted one.

Still playing around$300 mark as of this time lol. Many are excited. Look like holding @ around $290 mark now is quiet stable. If Im not mistaken today's low is not lower than $289*.
13556  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Methods of growing your Bitcoin? on: October 27, 2015, 12:23:48 PM

In our culture, there is an old saying that money came from bad things will result to bad luck to people who will receive it. The one that didn't know that the money came from bad doings are excluded since they have no idea about here. The targe here is the people who really did this for a purpose.

There's no wrong to believe in that sayings since basically it's true. Smiley

Somehow old saying are true if you will look deeper into the meaning of it. In the case of your shared old saying this is somehow true because in case in my part I can't really take to received and earned money thru bad things. I preferred to work for money to earn more than doing a shortcut.
13557  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will BTC reach $300 this month? on: October 27, 2015, 12:21:19 PM
Seeing the recent price moving upwards, I am a bit optimistic about btc reaching till $280 or so, but I don't think price can continue being stable after that. What are you guys' opinion on this?

the current price has reached $291.33. there are still 4 days to end this month, we should be able to reach $300 this month Smiley

Actually it reached more than that price this past days. Hope it can keep up so the $300 month will happen this month. But if ever it will happened, I think it will just goes down to less $2 in the upcoming days. Well Im really hoping we can hold @ $300 mark.

Even they know that the company is a ponzi why people still investing to it. Some knows the risk but others just go and go then will cry afterwards. There are lots of people who want to earn btc's without doing much effort whew.

Many people want easy money and they don't want to put effort for it.

I've seen that kind of people several times especially in money making groups or facebook group. They are amazed of what bitcoin value is and thinking they can get that easily without doing much effort. Bitcoin is Money so like money, there is no easy money and one should work on it. Your lucky if you can got it for free.

Agree in what you said.

Working for money in a legit way is much better than earning it fast thru illegitimate act. Someone who profits from Ponzi can considered illegitimate way since the money he earned here is thru the new investors expecting for a return.

It's nice to have and received money which came from your hardworks and efforts. You will have a peace of mind that this money is a reward for your doings and you can spend it peacefully without worrying that this money came from scammed people.

Greedy at first when Im new to gambling.

Believing too much in beginners luck has a limit. I earned lots at my first try resulting my greed to be awaken. After that ........ like others experienced.

So I will say maturity really matters to control greed.

Stake******  still alive? Cheesy ( Don't want to state the name here because I don't want newbies to mislead in my post)

Got my first 0.001btc from them after I deposit a required minimum investment I think 4 or 5 months ago back when Im new to idea of cloudming. I was surprised because I never expect a return here. ROI here is very long. Im not recommending it. Hope I can achieve my ROI but it's only a penny and I get over with it a long time even they didn't pay.

it's ver crazy, you invest at cloudmining ?  Cheesy
i hope you can get ROI Smiley

some month ago i get ROI + 20% from bitcoincloudservice (ROI ~6month)  Cheesy

That's the time when Im still new to anything happening in bitcoin world including cloudmining. Yes I invested in that cloudmining a month ago and I was surprised they paid me automatically after months of investing with them. I think ROI here is almost a year lol.
