141  Economy / Economics / Re: The dream of getting rich with bitcoins on: March 01, 2018, 09:23:19 PM
Since the OP was made in July, it is sufficient that you have held all your Bitcoins and by now that drea could have already become true. I too am hoping to "become rich with Bitcoins", however I'm perfectly aware of the insanity of all of this.
142  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do big corporations accept BTC? on: March 01, 2018, 09:21:43 PM
I must confess that I was not aware that the corporations that you have mentioned (Microsoft, Paypal) are accepting BTC. For real they do? If they do, which I still have some problem to believe, that could possibly be a first step towards a much wider adoption of cryptocurrencies.
143  Economy / Economics / Re: Crypto Is Contamination - ECB on: March 01, 2018, 09:19:22 PM
Since the global financial system is the biggest Ponzi scheme ever seen on this planet, I wonder how and in which sense anything would be able to contaminate it.
144  Economy / Economics / Re: Bill Gates says crypto-currencies cause deaths on: March 01, 2018, 09:17:22 PM
If Bill Gates is saying that crypto-currencies cause deaths, I'd be very curious to know how many people in the world must have died in the past decades while they were sitting at a computer using Windows. Just out of curiosity...
145  Economy / Economics / Re: Whats the ranking of bitcoin in terms of currency on: March 01, 2018, 09:15:08 PM
The question put by the OP is so stupid that one have to answer just to state how stupid it is. There is no ranking of currencies, and it there were one it would be calculated either by user adotpion or by capitalization versus concurrent currencies, even though it's not clear in which currency you'd calculate the capitalization. Gold? In any case, Bitcoin would rank very low in the list.
146  Economy / Economics / Re: why bitcoin is banned by the government on: February 16, 2018, 11:17:23 AM
is not that bitcoin able to change the state of its users which effects also on the state of the country's economy, why even banned hemzzz Grin Huh

This forum would be a much better place without this sort of shitposting - this OP makes totally no sense in English, and it's ridiculous that so many people are even replying to that.
147  Economy / Economics / Re: buy high and sell low. or hold which one is it? on: February 16, 2018, 11:14:50 AM
I think people opening thread in International part of forum should make an effort to write in more proper English. This being said, when BTC reached 19K the most reasonable thing to do would have been to sell so as to re-buy it lower. But of course, this is easy to say in hindsight.
148  Economy / Economics / Re: Holdings of gold vs Holdings of btc on: February 16, 2018, 11:10:45 AM
Gold has 5000 years of history as a store of value, Bitcoin slightly less. So for the long term I'd still rather go for gold. Which does not mean that we shouldn't allocate a part of our savings in BTC, of course. On the contrary!
149  Economy / Economics / Re: when you sell out of panic, you are contributing to the dump! on: February 16, 2018, 10:56:49 AM
Many of us here are saying, why is the cryptocurrencies market is getting a dump these days. Some are saying is because of the FuD, others are saying it is because of regulations laws in south Korea and India which is also child of FUD. But did you know that  when ever you sell out of panic, you are contributing to the dump and you are also attacking the blockchain technology!

There are two sorts of panic selling: those who just panic and sell, and those who have no choice but sell, because they cannot afford to lose what they have invested. Of course, this second category is even more in panic, but they simply have no choice, since they have violated the first rule of crypto: don't invest what you cannot afford to lose.
150  Economy / Economics / Re: it is possible fiat currency will crashed? on: February 16, 2018, 10:53:41 AM
I heard Robert Kyosaki is talking about the crashed of FIAT CURRENCY? when this thing will happen? how are we going to respond?

Sooner or later this is an INEVITABLE scenario. FIAT currencies are totally debased from any real good and their supply is spinning out of control. This fact does not produce hyperinflation YET, because big banks are in fact hijacking this colossal money production and keeping it for themselves. But sooner or later this house of cards will crumble.
151  Economy / Economics / Re: Economy in your country on: February 16, 2018, 10:49:34 AM
No significant impact on the economy of my country either. Bitcoin so far has only an impact on the economy of single individuals who are becoming wealthy for having bought Bitcoins early.
152  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: February 16, 2018, 10:47:19 AM
Is it better to save money in bank or invest it online, in real estate or maybe gold?

I see the OP is from 2015, but it is still an actual question. Well, had you invested your money in real estate or gold in 2015 you would have gone nowhere. Had you invested in Bitcoin & C. you would be rich by now. But tomorrow, who know, the opposite could be true. Timing is crucial.
153  Economy / Economics / Re: You missed all the trains, not just bitcoin on: February 16, 2018, 10:44:51 AM
I have read many posts of people saying they are sorry to have missed Bitcoin. But I wonder if they realise that there have been more than 20 trains out there that could have made them millionaires.

They have managed to miss at least all these, some of them as recent as July last year. It is not that you missed Bitcoin, is that you (and I) just missed many many others Roll Eyes

Be honest to yourself... you did have a chance!

Totally true. And there are so many more. Just to mention one of the latest: Oyster pearls (PRL), listed at less then 1 cent in November 2017 and in January 2018 rose to an ATH of about 4.5$.
154  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think bitcoin redistributes wealth or just makes the wealthy richer? on: February 16, 2018, 10:37:45 AM
Both the effects are in play. BTC whales get richer and a lot of people which had no money could now improve their economic situation thank to BTC.
155  Economy / Economics / Re: Is bitcoin a good way to invest your money ? on: February 16, 2018, 10:35:33 AM
It is funny how people are answering NOW to this question that has been put by OP in June 2017, while conditions have totally changes meanwhile. After the recent parabolic rise and ongoing sharp correction, investing NOW in Bitcoin is quite a gamble.
156  Economy / Economics / Re: Will there ever be a Bitcoin Bank on: February 16, 2018, 10:21:50 AM
Sorry, but a Bitcoin bank is an oxymoron. There have been lately a few ICOs trying to sell something like that to the public, but I really cannot see the point in something like that.
157  Economy / Economics / Re: Being a Smart Person or Strategic on: February 16, 2018, 10:20:15 AM
I guess you are clumsily trying to outline the difference between people who are good in a tactical approach and those who are good in a strategical approach to things. Different ways to be clever. You were just missing the right terms, which are tactical vs strategical.
158  Economy / Economics / Re: Do we need regulations? on: February 16, 2018, 10:17:09 AM
The history of the world proves that regulations are never fair, but they are introduced to favor one part or another part, and usually it's the usual suspects. Therefore I'd vote for no regulations. Let the Far West continue, at least it'll be fair Smiley
159  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [Pre-ICO] Sphere - Decentralized Social Networking >200,000 users on: February 16, 2018, 10:11:14 AM
Unfortunately we are still in the stage of persecution and defamation, for sure we will have better days, and those who are pursuing today will surrender to Crypto and everything related. Sphere is a step further and will have its large share in this process

if sphere can get at least 1M active users and open ads platform, it will great. sphere can fight with big platform subh as fb and twitter


they will have 1m in zero time

One million users is not a joke - and I guess you have to address also people who are outside the crypto space, which requires an entirely different marketing approach - not to speak about financial means.
I agree, is not that easy to reach 1 million users. To be succesful sphere will have to become popular among people outside the crypto world.

I would like to know which are the concrete marketing strategies planned for reaching out to so many people outside crypto. If there are no strategies then it is just an empty talk about fantasy numbers.
160  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ZEN] ZenCash: Private, Secure, Resilient CryptoCurrency with zk-SNARKs on: February 16, 2018, 10:09:13 AM
Any news about the project of making the process of node-setting more easy to achieve for everybody - and not just for computer freaks and nerds?

I am in the same boat as you. Had enough Zen to make a couple of nodes but too scary of trying the guides that i think are to complicated....
I am working on a video series that the goal is to allow anyone with no knowledge to be able to setup a secure node

Awesome...how to set up a sec node is probably one of our most frequently asked questions. Will be great to have a high quality video tutorial on it...

It would be about time. I am sitting now for months on enough ZEN to make a node but I am on Windows 7 and I didn'y manage so far.
