Everything spreads gradually so does the bitcoin, no matter if there aren't a lot of people using it right now around the world (though they are a lot but still less considering the population of the world) but there would be more with the time and as the adoption level increases the users database would increase automatically.

Wise people use gambling just for fun or having some good time while having a chance of making some money as well, but foolish people gamble for gaining profits with the money they have as a capital and has nothing else beside that, so if you gamble the amount of money which is your everything you will probably ruin yourself.

That is actually not something to be told if someone is wishing to invest money he should probably see everything before doing that, but still i think sometimes you don't know if this could happen, so if someone bought bitcoin when it was above $1k then he probably have thought that it will go higher but he did not think it will come lower later on.

You can actually do that right now with a bitcoin debit card which can be achieved easily but the thing is they have a limit for usage for unverified users, until you verify your identity you wont be able to use it for a lot of time because they limit the spendings to $1000 for unverified users, if you know you can verify yourself then just go for it.

The most used thing for getting rich in bitcoin world is trading altcoins as far as i know because mostly people accumulate bitcoin capitals to start trading altcoins with that so that they can earn some good amount of bitcoins for future when the price might be way higher then what it is now.

Obviously, everyone has a different thinking or different various plans are roaming around the minds of people having bitcoins as they think they would earn quite a lot of profit in long term holding so it depends on an individual if what he wants to do with his bitcoins later on.

That's right, if there are 3 people selling or spending their coins then there are 5 on the other side buying more, or if there are 2 people buying bitcoins then there are quite a lot more who are selling their coins or spending them somewhere so that is always balanced i guess.

I guess only people with extra money would prefer buying bitcoins and then gambling them because mostly people come to bitcoin to earn some more money because they need extra cash so if someone can gamble the amount he buys he probably does not need more money but already has extra money.

That is actually the way of saving but there are some people who does not have patience at all when they have money in hands, because they just spend them anywhere they want but not only where they need so this thing never lets them save anything for future.

I don't believe that altcoins help bitcoin to grow but actually altcoins are used because they are connected to bitcoin and the users of bitcoin trade altcoins so that they can earn more bitcoins, so the prices of altcoins depend on bitcoin but not the price of bitcoin depends on altcoins.

I wonder why someone having such a huge amount of money is looking for ways to earn more money on internet while people come on internet for earning extra money so that they can run their lives in a better way, isn't it better to start some real life businesses with that money instead of giving loans or trying some other things? Though trading can be a good option to be tried with some bitcoins.

Holding bitcoins is just an alternative but it is not a full time way of earning or growing bitcoins, but someone should always keep earning and then growing so that the amounts they are earning could grow gradually with the time.

I wonder how you predict such a high price for bitcoin to be in just a few months and cannot predict any prices for a complete year coming ahead, may i know on what bases you say the price will go above $1k in just those 3 and a half months?
It might go like near $800 if it did not face any serious problem as the price is slightly growing now, but i don't see any reasons for it to go that high in such a short period of time.

Compared to yours, my losses are nothing, losing 1.3 btc in just a single day is really a bad feeling, i saw someone crying around somewhere in the forum for losing something similar to yours and wishing to kill himself.
Well my mistakes were always investing in hyips which never turned out to be good obviously, though i did not lose much but according to what i used to earn that time it was a lot for me.

12 bitcoins itself is not a small amount so i don't feel he should wait just for them to grow and then to be used as a capital for investment but he can just use it as a capital right now and if he does not feel safe doing it with all he should try it with just 1 first of all and do some trading and later on if he finds it profitable he should go for more.

It looks easy but its not really easy to convince someone who hates bitcoin because the technology of bitcoin is quite complicated to be understood verbally unless someone uses is himself for sometime and takes interest in it then they might understand what it is and how it works, otherwise they would ignore your words and keep hating it again.

That's right but the question says is if it will be beneficial for bitcoin if the US dollar crashes? What do you guys think about that? Will those countries consider using bitcoin instead of those currencies for international market transactions?

Exactly, lets suppose if someone earns $600-700 a month and he saves 10% of it every time after getting his salary, and a year has 12 months so 12x10= 120, which means he will be having 20% more than what he earns in a month after every year which he can use for anything if needed if does not need anything then just keep them safe and keep the process going, and after some years you will have a good amount saved.

It depends on the price, and the price of bitcoin have grown in 2016 to some extent and it is still growing which proves that the year has been good for bitcoin, it is not important that bitcoin should go too high and then it would be the year of bitcoin but even if the price goes 10-15% from what it was in previous year then it means the year was good for the coin.

Cloud mining sites are mostly like ponzi schemes if they promise for big returns in less time which is not possible in mining, and cloud mining or ponzi schemes both are not a way of earning steady income as they might pay you at first but they have to end paying you at the end.
