1981  Economy / Economics / Re: What is your best investment strategy? on: June 22, 2016, 02:39:53 PM
I think that the best investment strategy you can make is to hold onto your bitcoins until the halving. Price is still cheap now so you still have a chance to get into the market.

Don't be late to the party Smiley
what if halving Any and had no effect on the price? apparently what happened is a decrease in the price? it might happen? no guarantee the price will rise when halving bitcoin
It should have an effect because if the price will not increase and because of halving the difficulty in mining increases, the miners will not be in the business anymore and that would render the blockchain less effective, in order to progress, we need to help each other and the price increase is a big help.

If you just want to keep your coins safe you don't must go to some gamble site.
And you shouldn't invest them because there are a several thief's who wants to steal them from you.
and you are not secured enough.

That's right it is better to avoid those gambling sites if you really want to grow your bitcoin safely. And I guess only trading and holding your bitcoin
is the way of safely growing your bitcoin.

The safest way to "grow" your Bitcoins is to just hold it as a stock, eventually you'll make profit but it was a better idea to buy it at $200 because it makes a lot bigger room for growth.

Keep you Bitcoins!!!! Save you won't regret it!
Holding bitcoins is risky but it is the safest way to grow your bitcoins. And because you take the risk if bitcoins price will increase due to the good news within the community and lot of adopters are willing to use bitcoins then it is very simple, the value of bitcoins you are holding will accordingly increase.

Getting rich is never easy, and never should be easy. My philosophy is that a boom must be followed by a bust, and there is no exceptions. So don't be greedy, and take your winnings when possible.

Work hard on something worthwhile and you'll be rich one day.

yes of course being rich is not easy. really takes work hard. but I think being rich with bitcoin easier than from your daily job.
because on bitcoin you can get unexpected results, such as bitcoin prices rise very high or you get a jackpot of bitcoin.
I totally agree with you, we can easily be rich with bitcoins if we know how to maximize our earnings. The truth is you cannot be rich on your job as you cannot maximize your skills because you are bound to follow orders from your boss. In life, we need to explore our passion and we can only do that if we can live freely which will give us a chance to do everything we want.
1984  Economy / Speculation / Re: How many bitcoins do I need to retire in 20 years? on: June 22, 2016, 07:52:10 AM
Lets say I want to buy bitcoins today and store them for 20 years to use a my retirement fund.  Live comfortably, but don't need to buy a yacht or anything.  How many do you think I would need to buy?
I think that if you have at least 100 and we have a price in the future that we somewhat expect now then you should be all right. But do not rely on the Bitcoin only try to save ass much money possible from your day job ass well.

100 btc is a really good amount to hold for the future, even if price doesn't reaches to the moon you can expect good and luxury life with that amount of bitcoins.
100 btc is still a gamble. What if 5 years from now, the price of  bitcoin dropped to 50% of it's current price. You better make a good amount which you need will have a excess so that when bad thing or unfortunate things happened, you have nothing to worry about.
Dropping to that percentage or even when that time comes that bitcoins will become worthless is always a risk but I am a real bitcoins believer and I am willing to gamble my future with it. I am a one sided person when it comes to bitcoins and I only believe that the price will increase in the future.
1985  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016 NBA Finals on: June 22, 2016, 07:47:16 AM
What a great series, shame that someone had to lose. The chess match was amazing. I honestly thought the series was over after the first after game 2. Unbelievable effort for the Cavs to win 4 of the next 5 vs the defending champs who just won 73 games.
They are both making a history but the biggest history made was on the cavaliers, they have won the championship even being the underdog to win the series. Lebron is making a lot of effort to win in the game and to think of the effort, they are making outstanding job coming from a 1-3 deficit to be able to win the NBA Finals.
that's correct getting the first champion crown is a big achievement for cavs and it is a history making the first team to bounce back from 3-1 series
very impressive performance let us see if they will aim for grandslam hehehe.
I presume you won big in that series because I feel you are a cleveland cavaliers fan and you are a gambler too,LOL.

For the next season, I think the cavaliers will make it easy to the NBA Finals again with the same team in the east it would be easy for them. I hope by next season it will not be warriors vs cleveland cavaliers again because I want to witness a new team in the finals.
Yes also me i want to see in the NBA championship is new team i do not like cavaliers and golden state again too boring to the watchers because 2 consecutive season is enough to them.
I want to see new teams in both playoffs eastern and western

I guess Cavs will stay but in the West that's we unsure of. There's too many good teams in the West that can compete against the Cavs.
Most exciting part is, will we see Love next season as a Cavalier?
I think love would be still in cleveland cavaliers, I don't know if he plays with injury because he has been consistent in all the games in playoffs except the warriors series. He is still vital to get the best record in the regular season so for me he is still an asset.
1986  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it a good long term investment to buy 1 BTC today? on: June 22, 2016, 07:40:29 AM
I think it's not a good time to invest 1 bitcoin right now, because as you can see the price of bitcoin is decreasing now and keep going down, better you wait first until the right time.
So you are directly saying that the price now will still fall back on the following days? if that will happen then it is good to wait for that time. In my honest opinion the price that we are saying now is just normal and there is nothing to worry or panic selling because it will rise accordingly.
1987  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is their any safe methods to gamble? on: June 22, 2016, 07:31:47 AM
I think there is no safe methods on gambling. Even a method also have a high chance to lose though. It's like 90% luck and 10% strategy on gambling.
To be honest, the way of our chances in gambling depends on how we see it. If we think that we need extreme luck to win in gambling then most likely you will lose in the long run, those people who does not consider luck as a big factor in winning in gambling most likely to become successful because they rely on their pure method to win.
1988  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: June 22, 2016, 07:27:21 AM
Focusing on BTC, I'm not sure what that means. Since I see BTC as a currency, that would mean like focusing on $ or € and I don't see many people being successful with that. You can only focus on a business, and frankly I hope there will never be a successful BTC-based business. I want BTC to be successful, not a few fat cats in London, or in California.

I wish some clients would pay me with BTC, but that hasn't happened so far.
Maybe that would simply mean that doing bitcoins related work and businesses which involves like, doing online jobs, trading, and investing. With bitcoins people are attracted to consider it as means of payment because they believe that bitcoins will appreciate its value in the long term.
1989  Economy / Economics / Re: Are electric cars bad for the oil industry? on: June 22, 2016, 06:54:42 AM
In my eyes they are bad because there will be less more oil needed and due to that the market will collapse soon or later.
For now its not bad due to the fact there are a lot of things depending on oil.

no that will never happen there will still be a high demand for oil , do you think that car is the only thing on earth that is needed an oil , well no , because some other industries are also using oil for a efficient power for production especially those factories .
However if you will analyze cars are the major consumer of oils and gasoline, so if cars will shift to electric cars the demand will be low and the profitability of the industry will be badly affected.

1991  Economy / Speculation / Re: bitcoin continuous rising? on: June 22, 2016, 06:43:10 AM
I think the bitcoin price will continue to rising even after the next halving , and that's in fact good for the Bitcoin's holders .
No it wont last till next halving event. When halving ends thats the time price will get stabilize as the hype we feel will also appear.
yeah I think so too. when halving ends I think many people will lose their sensation, and if that happens then bitcoin demand of the market would be automatically reduced. and you know the consequences?
prices down slowly? perhaps it is a cycle that must happen

And when the excitement dies down, I think that is one good opportunity to quietly buy. When the price has stabilized and all the partying is over and when we are over and done with the halving, that is the time to buy because we would just be starting the count down for the next halving event four years from now.

That's really a good strategy if you are going to invest with bitcoin. But for sure, bitcoin is going to continuous rising and no one can stop it.
Once the halving happens, we will see the result of it and it is nearly to come.
For now, the bitcoins price is dropping a bit and this is good for those who have not bought bitcoins yet, surely it will increase in the succeeding days as it is already the trends in the past few days. Now that the halving is nearing we will expect more investors to hold their coins and would affect the price to increase.
The bitcoin did drop drastically and I think it is because of the rumor that bitifinex has been hacked thats fomo surround the bitcoin users and force them to sell without confirming if the rumor is true. That's what I think the reason why the price of bitcoin dropped.
I think not, but whatever the real reason is, I am pretty sure that the price of bitcoins will rise in the future before halving. I like the rumors that is not true which will lead them to sell their bitcoins because I will help those strong people to buy bitcoins and to earn more profits in the future.
1992  Other / Off-topic / Re: How kids can "earn" Bitcoin ? on: June 22, 2016, 06:35:47 AM
My kid wants to make some money.

I never cared much of those easy systems but seems it would work for him.

I gave him 2 faucets but i ALSO remember there was servers/games where one could make Bitcoin [or altcoin] just for playing.

Would you remind ?

For kids I think u need to find a game that pay bitcoin . For example bitjoy.io there is 3 games available in bitjoy u can have bitcoin just for playing this game but  the value of the price is not  so high. But atleast the kids still enjoy playing and earning bitcoin, hope its help
But we need also to consider the time spent on playing because as a kid they have their focus in life, they need to study well and enjoy their childhood to be a better person when they grow up, if anything would distract their focus is not good even if they are earning from it.
1993  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you were rich, would you still gamble? on: June 21, 2016, 02:02:23 PM
if I were rich, I'm not going to gamble. I will use my wealth for more useful things and go on holiday with it to get pleasure

And don't forget to make more money out of that money!
Because anyone may get broke by just spending money without an income.
That is a completely different topic whether rich people should invest or just sit idle. The thing is that he will not gamble if he was rich that means he is gambling for money and that is not a great sign from a gambler. In my view, anyone can gamble but should not invest more, like that could change his status from rich to poor.
That is tantamount to saying that only gamble what you can afford to lose, rich and poor are completely in a different status so if a poor gamble an amount that is big enough for him that it could his life regardless of the result but maybe for the rich it is just an immaterial amount to him and he can stand if he lose his bets. That is the big difference, rich has the financial freedom.
1994  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should I invest in bitcoin casinos? on: June 21, 2016, 01:56:30 PM
investing in a bitcoin casino in my opinion is a good investment but it surely is not the best investment that you can do with your money.

this kind of investment is risky but has the potential to give you back a pretty good return if you are lucky and do it in long term.
Yeah long term investment is feasible, you won't make profit in the short term. there are schemes with short term profit most of them are probably scams(like those hyips).

Honestly they are not trusted and its better to stay away all of them are scam never heard that there is a legit one.. if you are lucky that you are making profit in investment site better to don't invest it again instead just hold it or use it in other activity..
Not really all the sites are scams. I have invested a few times with bitdice and others and have made quite decent profit. Yes but I agree that rather than investing saving is better as when you invest ( or just me ) then I get temped and gamble too Sad ending up divesting all money.
That's the problem with some people, sometimes even if we already invested and see our investment grow but we are not contented only seeing a small amount of growth and sometimes we tend to try to increase our profit in the riskiest way which is being a player to gamble. Just a very simple analysis, many are losing so if you are the house you are in profit therefore stay discipline and stick to investing only.

1996  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin worth to you or not... on: June 21, 2016, 07:07:01 AM
You should be stupid if Bitcoin is nothing worth to you and that is because you can even make some money with it so that is really important.
And it is hard to know what is going to happen later in the future with Bitcoin of course but it is now rising.
Whether you are an investor, trader or frequent users of bitcoins in online transaction, you will easily determine the benefits of using it base on your experience. That is that bitcoins is worthy because it allows us to transact fast with a minimal fee, no one in the market can compare with BTC that is why it is gaining the support of the masses.
1997  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: June 21, 2016, 06:32:59 AM
Gambling should not be blamed but we should be. We gamble, gambling does not ask us to come and do it.
It is wrong when done without any control, and fine if you know when you should get out.

yes, we should know what our weaknesses and strengths are. For us to also know how to discipline ourselves or to control ourselves in doing gambling. we all know that gambling is not good at the 1st place. But gambling is just for entertaining ourselves when we are bored.


And I think this is a kind of entertainment that's gonna take all away your money and you will never know that you have already lost so much you will regret it in the end, actually it is entertaining alright but on doing this a hundred times it will bore you soon enough if it doesn't involve money but when there is money at stake then I think people are getting interested with that more that the game itself.

Very wrong kind of entertainment for that matter. Well not really cause genuine people actually enjoy gambling and not lose much from it. But I guess what im trying to say, is if you don't think you can't handle that then just don't get in.

I am talking about how do they get entertained by gambling if they keep on repeating the process on it!? well I am thinking that is because of the money that involves in gambling well gambling revolve on money! if there isn't money to bet on then people would not have an interest at all and it will not be called as gambling!
Yeah! but gambling without money involved is boring, the money at stake is the measurement of our success in gambling. This is risky but people love to take risk as it is a different feeling taking the risk but sometimes when it is excessive that's when the bad things happen.

Yeah a lot of people want Polo to be next
If this will be release in polo, what is the benefits? Does the price will increase because we will have a good volume?
1999  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should I invest in bitcoin casinos? on: June 21, 2016, 06:17:35 AM
I am not sure if you think that you can make some money with it and you see potential in this Bitcoin casino then you could invest in it. Take it slow first and start of with a low amount of money to feel it out a bit.
if you are a lucky perosn and can win any game then you should invest in bitcoin casinos.
I quite got confused with what you said, if he was lucky and win any game he would not actually invest in casino but instead prefer to play at that casino. Yes if you feel unlucky at playing then investment is your next best choice in the case, gambling is your one and only industry you prefer to stick within.
Luck will not give you a guarantee to win in the long run, most people who failed in gambling are those believer of luck. If you cannot win in gambling which is the reality is hard to win then you should just invest and even if your return is low but it is consistent.
2000  Economy / Economics / Re: The future of the paper money on: June 21, 2016, 06:05:54 AM
You see now indeed that there are now more people that is using Bitcoin as their payment method and that is really nice for the currency itself of course but there are still a lot of people that is using paper money.
So it is not that bad for paper money and you have to make Bitcoin more popular if you want to let it disappear.
Regardless, bitcoins will not sill replace paper money. As of now, we have a lot of users of paper money and the users of bitcoins is just minimal in area because some people are not comfortable in using the complicated bitcoins. I know in the future bitcoins will be popular but only for those businessman out their who use internet online payments to fast track their transactions.
