Our standard answer to people saying that Bitcoin is too complicated used to be, " Bank customers do not need to know how the internet ledgers of a bank work, to use their service " but now with the introduction of things like UASF people have to approach their merchants and exchanges and services to figure out what services will be safe to use, depending on what route those services will be going with this scaling option. Are we over complicating Bitcoin for non-technical users of this technology? < They have no clue what chain split and soft forks are, and should they be that involved? > Our goal should be to make it very simple for Granny to understand and to grow adoption. ^hmmmmmm^ Imagine if the reserve bank issued 2 different types of $1 notes and one type of note was accepted at specific merchants and not at other. This will create a lot of confusion with the general public. Example : https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/6e25yx/im_investing_on_bitcoin_for_some_time_but_what/We are not over complicating bitcoin. It's just that some non tech-savvy people are trying to understand a quite complicated technology. People don't need to understand it, just trust it; but yea understanding it is a big plus and a big knowledge advantage. Laymen people don't under the internet or the world wide web either, but they still use it. It should be the same for bitcoins.

... mostly towards newcomers i see an increased activity in people advertising altcoins as good investments which are going to be such and such in the future and do wonderful things! specially in the main board. and it is only going to increase as the bubble of said altcoin grows bigger. just remember to think before investing in any of them, don't fall for the emotional hype. also a good idea to educate yourself. start by reading this: http://www.investopedia.com/terms/b/bubble.aspMost of these altcoins are just sort of "pump and dump" anyway. They hype the altcoin so much that people invest in them, then they dump all their coins on exchanges. Huge profit for them, but investors lose money. It's a sick way to profit off crypto to be honest.

I am curious what you will do that day, when this post gets replied and all those people wish they started in the time that we did. The day when you, me and all other Bitcoin buyers basically have won the lottery, what will you do?
What I would do? I would go to my friends and family and tell them "I TOLD YOU SO". LOL. It seems like for all the people I know irl I'm the only one who believes in crypto. They laugh for now, lets just see who laughs in the future with all those profit from crypto. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

What are the chances of living in a world with no actual money ? ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) Low. I think personally that cryptocurrencies wont make FIAT useless, but I think that cryptocurrencies will work hand-in-hand with FIAT money. Especially in countries like the United States, and the other first-world countries; I don't see FIAT going anywhere soon.

Wow that's pretty tight. I imagine alot of unaware members get banned. Since sometimes these are normal behaviors but are detected as 'spammy' by the bots.
Classic gibberish. The bot absolutely has nothing to do with spammers nor any kind of bans. Each and every ban is applied manually, by me. If one does not know that this is a strict campaign with a lot of bans, then one has clearly not read the whole thread before joining and thus should be booted from the campaign right away. There should be considerations about these.
No. Rules are rules. Alright. I understand, rules are rules. Just gotta make sure I don't break any of em. I just wanted to make sure. Thanks for the reply.

As an example you can take my situation: After few months of participating in this campaign one night (three weeks ago) I come back from party and i wrote three (3) low quality posts - it was enough to kick me out, and put me on list of spammers. Rules are rules..
Wow that's pretty tight. I imagine alot of unaware members get banned. Since sometimes these are normal behaviors but are detected as 'spammy' by the bots. There should be considerations about these. Ohwell. It means I gotta keep my conversations on private message then.

Posting in short bursts (which results with a permanent ban). Hi @Lauda. I'm a new member of this campaign. How frequent can posts be to be considered as "short bursts"? I had some uncommon instances before where I reply like once every 5-10 minutes in a single thread if I'm talking or discussing with somebody. I'm curious if I could possibly get banned for that reason.

Huh. User Interface looks alot like Copay's. Can you give me some features you have that Copay/Bitpay doesn't have?

Parang pamilyar po sa akin ang pangalan ng site nyo sir, ito po ba yung Pinoy Bitcoin sa Facebook na mina-manage po nila Allien? May nasalihan po kasi ako dati na site na ganito rin po ang pangalan. Isa po siya dun sa admin nun. Pero hindi ko lang po alam kung ano nangyari dahil hindi na po ata active yung site.
Ngayon kung ito po yun, isa po pala ako dun sa admin nung Bitcoin Philippines na extension group po nung Pinoy Bitcoin.
May available position pa po ba kayo sir, tignan ko po kung may libreng oras sali po ako sana pero hindi ko po mapapangako na ganung ako ka-active dahil sa may regular na trabaho din po ako. Kung mayroon lang po. Salamat!
Good afternoon. Yes unaware ako nung umpisa na meron palang pinoybitcoin na forum dati. So now under new management na. As of now ako at si boss Dabs. Yes currently naghahanap ako ng moderators para macontrol ang spam pag dumami na ang tao, atsaka para makatulong narin sa pagrecruit. Dropby ka lang, pinoybitcoin.org. Pakibasa nalang po posts about sa rules at sa staff hunt. Salamat! Sige po sali ako sir pagmay libreng oras. Medyo busy din kasi.
Nga pala, ayos din po sir yung ginawa nyo na contest para makahatak ng mga bagong registrant. Ganun din po ginawa dati nung sa allcryptotalk, cryptotalk at freebitcointalk tapos ang laki po ng nadagdag na mga new members sa kanila. At lumaki din po yung community nila.
Maganda rin siguro sir kung mapro-promote nyo yung site nyo sa iba pang forum na hindi lang crypto-related tulad po ng symbianize, pinoyden, pinoyexchange, at iba pa, dahil may section din po sila dun para sa money making opportunities.
Pati naipost nyo na po ba sir yung site nyo sa mga bitcoin group sa Facebook? Try ko din po i-post kapag nakapag-online ako sa account ko sa FB.
Muli salamat po, dropby po ako sa inyo kung wala masyado ginagawa po dito sa trabaho namin. Salamat. feeling ko nung una magiging effective ung competition, pero as of now flop. Parang 1 palang nakagawa ng decenteng guide. haha. Mukhang ad campaign lang ata talaga ang makakapag dala ng traffic. Yes nag aadvertise po kami through facebook. Also, pag interested ka: PinoyBitcoin Staff hunt

We know that Satoshi Nakamoto coined the termed "Bitcoin", but who coined the term "Satoshi" for the one hundred millionth part of a bitcoin. I had read somewhere that it was in honor of bitcoin's creator in 2010, but who first started using the word ? Just asking out of curiosity ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) It was definitely to honor Satoshi Nakamoto. I don't think it was decided by a single person though. I imagine it happened like a member suggested it on a sort of forum, then most members liked it. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Hello po. Tungkol po eto sa app na telegram taps gumagamit po ng bot. May nagtetelegram po ba dito? Or natry na magtelegram? Waste of time lang po ba to? or scam ? o may kumikita po from this app? Thank you po sa help.
As much as possible stay away po sa mga cloud mining/investment sites. Kung gusto niyo kumita through bitcoin, either join kayo ng ad campaign, or hold lang kayo ng bitcoins, since mataas ang chance na tumaas pa ng tumaas ang presyo ng bitcoins.

Nice, mabuti na rin to para makatulong sa ibang hirap mag english, good luck and sana maging successful by the way ang swerte mo sa domain at nakuha mo ang magandang site name, more power at magtulungan tayong mga pinoy para ma spread ang knowledge tungkol sa bitcoin.
Salamat. Sana nga po talaga umunlad, kahit mejo naluluma na ang pagkauso ng forums dahil sa facebook. Sadly spamville kasi ang facebook pag sa bitcoins ang pinag uusapan. Tama ka po, spam talaga pag sa facebook kasi walang nagbablock sa mga post nila doon kasi hindi masyadong strict ang mod doon sa facebook at puro invest lang doon kagaya ng MLM at ponzi scheme. Marami pa silang dapat na malaman tungkol sa bitcoin. Kaya dapat umunlad itong forum para sa mga pinoy dahil nandiyan lahat ng dapat nilang malaman lalo na sa mga nabiktima ng mga ponzi at nakatagalog pa. Sana nga po. Para sa general knowledge po sana sa bitcoin. Para naman sana pag tinanong ang mga iba kung ano ang advantages ng bitcoin e may masasagot sila.

I put in about $100 into ETH yesterday and plan on putting another $100 in today. Last I checked, it was around $3 per ETH and now it's at $19 which is absolutely great.
How many of you have invested in ETH and how far do you think it will go in the next couple of years?
It's currently going great. But guess what. Bitcoin was the same in the past. Not because Eth is going consistent now doesn't mean it's impossible for Eth to have a huge problem in the future. But to answer your question, it will go far. Maybe as far as bitcoin, or more. Completely depending also on bitcoin's BIP fiasco.

Not because Eth is doing very good right now it doesn't mean it's not gonna go through some problems in the future. Who knows? It might even have worse problems.
It's just that Eth is currently alot younger than BTC.

Ethereum is no way a scam. People would have found out long ago if it was. Eth is currently one of the top5 or even top3 cryptocurrencies today. Even though both are cryptocurrencies, it just doesn't work the same as bitcoin.

Bitcoin is not money, but can be used as money as an alternative, just like gold. It's not money, but a type of currency.

magandang plan to sir, para sa mga pinoy na ndi pa hasa masyado pagdating sa english kagaya ko . gnda din ng npili mong domain name website. Sana po e mka atract ka ng mdaming member. Dami pa kasing d maxado maalam pagdating sa bitcoin. Sana ndi puro spammer sumali sayo na ang alam lang eh mg spam ng mg spam ng referral link nila.Good luck po.
Maraming salamat. Mejo mahirap nga po humakot ng members sa ngayon since puros ad campaign ang hanap. Mahirap kasi ang mga tao dito mostly signature campaign ang habol. Iyong iba di talaga maforum or iyong napasabak na sa adikang forum nung kalakasan pa ng mga Pinoy forums. Try mo ipromote sa mga local forums natin gaya ng Symbianize at Pinoyden. Diyan ako nagsimula bago ako napadpad dito sa bitcointalk at di ako napadpad dito para sa signature campaign di gaya ng newbies dito na first post pa lang sig campaign agad ang hinanap hehe. Nalaman ko na lang siya habang tumatagal. Goodluck sa forum mo kabayan! Yes. Iniisipan ko ngang mag advertise dun pero baka masira agad ang reputasyon ng pinoybitcoin.org kahit umpisa palang
|
|

Expect mo na talaga na maliit ang ibibigay sa sig campaigns, since wala namang required sayo gawin kundi magpost lang ng magpost para makakuha sila ng clicks sa website nila. Feeling ko nga personally mataas na ang bigay dito eh.

No it's not. PayPal transactions are instant. The only delay is caused by the transfer from PayPal to bank, whereas I'm sure PayPal doesn't have control over. Paypal transactions are cheaper too when transferring low amounts.

Right now? I would go all Ethereum to be honest. I would invest on bitcoin but bitcoin might crash a bit next month at the end of just due to BIP148.
