When i see some new "fashion" on fashion tv, I seriously don't believe that even the most insane artists won't wear it...
Also, i look at todays "fashion" on fashion tv same as modern art... Pile of crap.
Mostly, Fashion shows are for the "Fashion Interested High-Class" people and Celebrities, not for the rabbles, obviously. They wear those strange clothes for special occasions, not for their normal day routine. But you are right, the clothes seem more disgusting than fashionable. I hardly digest those Tv Fashion Shows.

Also, you were right about models aren't the most pretty faces (especailly, in fashion shows). It's because faces are the least interested in the business, they would care about the way they walk, their bone structure and sizes of chest, hips, thighs, waist and legs more than face. A relativaly normal beautiful girl with awesome body would beat a more beautiful one (even if she was a beauty queen), unlike advertisments products where beauty is a main factor.

How can you see future of BTC when humanity will able to colonize different planets like Mars?
Will we have the same blockchain for all the human empire or splitting blockchain is needed for colonized planets?
We are not going to Mars right away, it's called "The Millennial Project of Colonization of Mars" (I don't think we will live to see it. 1000 years!!!). So, let's call it the far/distant future, for now.
Forbid that you can not control - it is common to most countries. However, many experts believe - the central bank and the government should provide citizens with the opportunity of choice, especially when it comes to the preferred means of payment or investment.
And you really think that a central bank and/or a government would welcome Bitcoin with open arms. Central banks might think of creating their own digital coin that can be controlled/controllable and back their governments (such as Canada and Ecuador), but they wouldn't give that support to Bitcoin.

well world without bitcoins will really not go well because some people has JOB with it, making a living from it so a world without Bitcoins is really not good.
That's the case for me here. Undecided
Bitcoin is accepted in most countries except a few. smaller countries with small economies that can not compete with Bitcoin. In a few years it will be in everyone Bitcoin
 Wink
Where countries accepted bitcoin? Until now, I never heared bitcoin accepted by the government. We must know, if bitcoin accepted surely jeopardize the country's national security, because the existence of bitcoin can divert the use of official currency to the bitcoin.
Seriously, mate? At least, you should have done some very tiny miny niny searches about it.

1543  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When did you begin using Bitcoin? on: December 06, 2016, 01:13:50 PM
Well, I knew about Bitcoin since 20th October 2016 (complete oblivion, I know Undecided) and started using it since 28th October 2016, because I saw a lot of potential benefits and advantages about Bitcoin that hooked me fast in its world.
1544  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What would happen if BTC was Banned? on: December 04, 2016, 11:44:50 PM
I just read that Russia just made bitcoin legal. Probably because they could not stop it and so that they can tax it. Ha ha. This is a good trend. Wonder what they are going to do now about the trend to anonymous.
It's good to hear so after so many rumours and negative news about bitcoin being banned in several countries or about the government trying to stop people from using bitcoin. This will surely affect bitcoin in a good way and this may change people's thoughts about bitcoin. I used to assume that everybody loves bitcoin but the more I ask people about bitcoin, the more I feel that they just don't want to have anything to deal with bitcoin. So I really hope that this will change soon in the future.
I saw that coming, that one day, Russia would legalize the usage of bitcoin, just knowing how many russians are interested in bitcoin is intriguing.
I foresaw the russian legalization of bitcoin due to much evidence:
After months of hearing rumors, plots, conspiracies, demonic possessions .......etc about Bitcoin all over the media, it's good to hear something as cheerful as this. Cheesy Cheesy
1545  Other / Off-topic / Re: How many times have you've been scammed? on: December 03, 2016, 10:52:51 PM
Well, So far, I haven't been scammed  Grin (and I hope I will never be), but I can tell you that greed and enthusiasm can drive people to trust scammers and throw their money off to them.
ONCE   Grin

Though I can't really say it's been scammed. lol.
There was one time, over a year back, where I got to talking with a guy I've seen around on some site we've both been playing at. He was probably winning a good amount as he just suddenly gave me about $90 worth of bitcoin at the time. Then he got to talking that he was the owner of some cloud mining/hyip site and I should invest with him so I could make some money.
I was like, 'What the heck, sure, it's his money anyway.' So I went and invested $30.  Grin Grin
Not even a week after, no one's heard from him again. and I never saw a trace of those 30 bucks again..
(Quite a sad story,huh.  Grin Grin)  Haha.
Anyway, that was the only time I invested in those kinds of things.(that I can remember)
Slummy Bastard! Grin Do you call that a scam? Tongue (who scammed who? you or him). And where did those $60 go?! Tongue (Although, I still don't understand why would he run with $30 bucks only?! I mean he could have made you invest more by giving you some profits at first, then take your bigger investment and run off. Really seems like you scammed him Tongue Grin)
1546  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: From your own selfish perspective, where do you want bitcoin to end up? on: December 03, 2016, 05:56:51 PM
From a selfish point of view, I would like to see "Bitcoin never dead". Bitcoin has become an essential part of my life now and I hope it will continue growing, not just for the price, but for I (and anyone else) can use it everywhere in shops, markets, public services places (such as restaurants, Cafés, Hotels .....etc) and more. I hope Bitcoin can really become the most popular currency in the world as USD is now.
1547  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does bitcoin help your life in daily needs? on: December 03, 2016, 05:38:35 PM
Honestly for me bitcoin has been and will always be a way to get extra income because it is something that changes from time to time that has no fixed price so if i don't depend on bitcoin to provide me with my daily needs , the funny thing is that i know a guy that sits all day in his house trying to get bitcoin and he ends up with more money than i do that i have to work for it.
Lol. Well, As I think of it, I got 4 years to graduate from college, then another 4 to establish myself as a reliable engineer (meaning, I can gain the maximum that I can get from my job after those latter 4 years). On the other hand, If I earned 1 Bitcoin/month, I would probabaly make triple my salary (maybe even 4 times more than) as an engineer. So, I could think of his approach LOL.
1548  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What would happen if BTC was Banned? on: December 03, 2016, 05:14:19 PM
First of all Bitcoin cannot be banned by any single entity. Bitcoin is a decentralized International currency even though it doesn't have the characteristics similar to any other Fiat currency.

One country or two countries can ban Bitcoin for themselves. But they really cannot Ban it for everyone. So I do not see that Bitcoin will be banned in near future. Stay calm and keep earning bitcoin.


It will only be ban by majority if not all of the countries if they see that it has been abused and it is widely use for illegal activities raising them to declare the action. Base on the current situation, although I am not certain but I believe bitcoin should not be ban as only a few portion of users are using it for illegal activities.
If it happens that a government bans Bitcoin usage, then, that government isn't banning it for illicit or illegal activites, it is banning it because the government is afraid of what potential benefits and disadvantages/drawbacks Bitcoin may come with (benefits for users and drawbacks for banking system).

1549  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Necronomicon thread: Altcoins which are dead. on: December 03, 2016, 04:15:55 PM
Is there a way to relaunch this thread ?
I would like to update it with the help of some people. It is not my original idea, here are the details.
Today, the increasing number of new Alts makes it difficult for the users to find reliable informations on the forum because of all the events happening at the same time, that's why it would be great if the community to relaunch this project i think.
You are right. Especially, in trading, one can barely find any information (if not at all) about new altcoins. There are a lot of altcoins being traded or being announced every single day and keep tracking those altcoins can sometimes get frustrating and exhausting. Relaunching this project would be really useful.

1551  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you hate muslems? on: December 01, 2016, 02:13:21 PM
Among my friends also have a lot musuliman. We have never had a conflict on this basis. They are balanced people who respect the tradition of others.

I have a lot of Muslim friends as well. Never had a quarrel with any of them. But then, almost all of them want the Shariah law to be imposed (even for Non-Muslims), and want non-halal food banned. I can never support such people.
If they are in Foreign lands (Non-Muslim countries), then, they have no right to ask for such thing. They must impose Shari'a on themselves, not others. On the other hand, If they are in a Muslim country (where Muslims are the majortiy), they have to impose Shari'a on Muslims and Non-Muslims and to ban the non-halal food (like Pork, Wine and Alcoholic drinks). That's what Islam told Muslims to do. 
1552  Economy / Services / Re: A task you may or may not be interested in! on: November 30, 2016, 03:07:07 PM

I could only do this for 45000-50,000 satoshis please.
PM me back if you can do this.
I'm getting some payments tonight, so, maybe I can sort that out for you. I will PM you when I can.
1553  Economy / Services / Re: A task you may or may not be interested in! on: November 30, 2016, 02:59:01 PM
I have a specific task (Sign up) that I would like anyone to take.

Requirements:
A valid PayPal account.
60 seconds of your time.

Rewards:
0.0001 BTC to your Bitcoin address.

Risks of taking the task:
Maybe, After doing the task, you will get a Welcome e-mail (delete it and forget about the whole thing).

Payment:
You will be paid, once you confirm the task done and I check it (please, consider the delay between sending and recieving your payment).

Anyone interested shall PM me for specific details.
What paypal you are looking for? A verified one or not? And what country too.I have paypal but its not verified. Send me pm if your accepting non verified paypals.
At least, an e-mail verified one (not a bank account or a credit/debit card one).
Any country is welcome except USA, Canada and UK, they require a final step of verifying a phone number (so, it will cost the applicant and that is something I don't like).
1554  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / I can't see the full picture here! on: November 30, 2016, 02:14:58 PM
I'm new to the world of Bitcoin mining and I have never mined before (neither using GPU/CPU nor using a mining hardware). So, here is my humble (if not stupid) question, why do miners (ordinary people, like you and me) mine bitcoin? (please, don't tell me, you are doing it for fun). I can't see the profits here (if I'm blind, don't hesitate to inform me).

Here is a simple example of what I don't understand about mining:

The most powerful and efficient SHA-256 mining hardware out there is the Antminer 2016 S9 @0.10W/GH 14TH/s which consumes 1375 watts at a price of nearly $2300 on Amazon.com. The approximately BTC earned is 0.5BTC/Month, excluding electricity, mining pool fees, contracts costs, cooling costs and hardware expenses. But I have searched a little and found that 14TH/S is just advertised and the real hash rate is 12.93TH/s±7%, also, found that all 12.93TH/s Antminers were sold and the remaining ones are of 11.85TH/s.
Also, I found that Bitmain (Antminer's Manufacturer) doesn't make all hardwares the same, every single mining hardware is different from the other.

So taking into account electricity cost $0.1/KW and the other demands costs like cooling, pool fee ...etc plus an additional PSU priced $150 from Bitmain's website as the Antminer can't be plugged directly to the wall, all this sum up into a cost around $3000 which is a big investment (at least, for me).

I know that Bitcoin miners contribute to the world of Bitcoin and their Bitcoin mining serves the purpose of disseminating new coins in a decenteralized manner as well as motivating people to provide security for the system, but seriously, what does Bitcoin mining contribute back to the life of Bitcoin miner (on a personal level)? Sorry for the long post.

Disclaimer: The Example above is for an explanation purpose (so that my subject can be clear enough), I'm not promoting nor recommending the product to anyone. Just asking for opinions and answers.
1555  Economy / Services / Re: A task you may or may not be interested in! on: November 30, 2016, 01:29:22 PM
I would do this task for 50,000 satoshis.
Send me a pm with what you need to have done with this requested task needed to be complete.
Just hope it is a one time only registration with a paypal account and not receive countless emails from them afterwards. Undecided

How about 30,000 satoshis? If interested, send a PM.
They usually don't bother you with annoying e-mails, but if they did, you can simply login to your account and uncheck the option of sending e-mails to your e-mail account.
1556  Economy / Services / Re: A task you may or may not be interested in! on: November 30, 2016, 01:30:02 AM

Firstly, I have never seen someone paying 10,000 satoshi for a sign up only task (if there is, please, inform me).


You "never seen someone paying 10,000 satoshi" - you mean so low, or so high reward?

It was not difficult to find thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1680548.0

There is a lot of threads with similar tasks and with higher rewards.
If you want it to be fair, Choose between 10,000-50,000 satoshis for this task.
1557  Economy / Services / Re: A task you may or may not be interested in! on: November 30, 2016, 12:55:31 AM
and increase your amount then hope you will have your required referrals from here
Firstly, I have never seen someone paying 10,000 satoshi for a sign up only task (if there is, please, inform me).
Secondly, it's a sign up task which doesn't require any other commitment like clicking on anything in the site, just sign up, get your 10,000 satoshi and forget about it, plain and simple.

Tell you what, I will send you a PM about it and you tell me the price.

1560  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 21 millions bitcoin in question on: November 28, 2016, 01:59:57 PM
To my great surprise, thread starter obviously has never heard about a phenomenon called "inflation". You can increase the number of total Bitcoin and miners may earn more Bitcoin, but the buying power of every single Bitcoin will decrease proportionally to the increase in the number of total Bitcoin. For example every citizen of Zimbabwe was a multi billionaire at the height of hyperinflation a few years ago, however nobody had any reason to be happy about it...

The absolute total limit of 21 million coins is the holy grail of Bitcoin. Changing it would lead to immediate death of the currency, because it is one of the foundations of Bitcoin's value. If that is ever done, Bitcoin would have become a fiat currency. Therefore any attempt in that regard is considered devil worship and will unlikely be approved by miners.

ya.ya.yo!
Kept reading and couldn't find a better reply than this. It summarizes the whole thing.
