I ment collateral haha, I was planning in using an Escrow anyway, thanks for the input. I was planning on asking alt coins as collateral which may mean slow business, but a not so devastating outcome when I get scammed :/

Once you build up enough rep/trades you'll be able to take collateral without escrow, though using as escrow will be time consuming just for loans. I'd take forum accounts as collateral as most people wont even need to loan money if they've already got the sufficient amount in alts though there are lots of people doing this already so people would likely choose another user over you.

I actually think this is a great idea. I also don't have a dataplan on my mobile as it is very expensive and I just try find free wifi but they're not always available. I think offering to pay in bitcoins would be great for both users and also for the owners of the wi fi to get hold of some bitcoins for free (assuming you have unlimited wi fi anyway).

My only worry with companies jumping on board and accepting bitcoins so quick is after the initial excitement and buzz of them accepting it interest or use will taper off so I just hope they don't decide to just ditch bitcoin all together. I think its early days for bitcoin and sales will pick up eventually. Personally I can't wait to spend my coins but wish to hold until they're worth a bit more than would love to spend them at places like expedia and travel the world on bitcoin.

Hoarding is sooo boring though.. I do not feel part of the action, when I am not doing something with some of my coins. Take the leap and trade a small percentage of your coins. {Say 20%}

A friend of mine, bought some bitcoins, to experiment and "play" as he put it. He started with 1 BTC and traded his way up to 8.4 BTC within a year. The highest interest he could get from banks for that amount

was +/- 6% for that same period. Trading BTC is becoming an obsession with him now, and I constantly warn him to keep a little back, from the profits he makes as a trader.   

It's not boring to me. I like knowing I've got a nest egg and it is fun watching them fluctuate and I think it's good to save. I can't wait to spend them but feel bitcoin has a long way to go before it reaches its potential so will keep on saving them until bitcoin is at a point where I can actually buy things I want.

By just sitting on your coins, instead of using them, Bitcoin won't grow!
That is a myth, sir, and I mean to slay it!

Wealth held in bitcoin represents wealth that was formerly held in fiat. Every satoshi - every cent - makes the network stronger and more valuable. We're growing a baby black hole here, the more mass we feed it the bigger the event horizon. In other words, HOLDING IS GOOD FOR BITCOIN AND DEADLY TO FIAT!


Exactly. It's basic supply and demand. Take more coins out of circulation and the value goes up. Don't some diamond companies hoard lots of diamonds in an attempt to push the price up? I think this is the same.

awesome, Mike Tyson will be the rep of bitcoin ATM? Or is it his own brand?

They're not his. They belong to someone else he's just the publicity figure.

Uh, is this even a legit Mike Tyson undertaking, or is someone just appropriating his image as a marketing gimmick?

I think this is exactly what it is. Tyson will do pretty much anything for money these days and makes a living just from doin personal appearances and signings etc so I'm sure he just leased his name to these machines. Personally I don't care as any news is good publicity for bitcoin and gets us into the mainstream media again.

Hi,
So something I've been thinking about is lending Bitcoin. For me to conduct trades over Bitcoin Talk, I usually ask the other party pays first (which usually means the trades fall through).
  • Is it actually profitable?
  • Will I get scammed to death?
Cheers.

It can be profitable but the margins are small and the risk is great if you don't get sufficient collateral. How can the other party pay first though if you're the one lending the money? Do you mean send collat first? Most people wont trust you yet to send collateral first so you'll need to use escrow. Personally I'd avoid getting into the lending business as it's likely not worth the hassle and one scam is all it takes to ruin your total profit.

In my opinion it's best to just buy bitcoin and hold. I think ina few years or so the price will be worth multiple of what it is now.

well i did not see anything written about farming the bitcointalk accounts, i know some people do it and earn money from that, i think its the best way to earn after sig campaigns
if by farming account you mean spamming with multiple accounts in signature campaigns, i'd say don't worry about it they all will get banned eventually.
but there are people who buy bitcointalk accounts with or without potential activity and sell them later with higher price, and earn a nice profit through that.

Farming accounts isn't really worth it any more due to the low prices accounts get, but you can have as many accounts as you want as long as you don't spam rubbish from them. Probably best just to have a few and make decent posts on a  signature campaign.

Coffee with a cigarette (Malboro Red). Damn so good.

Do you blend the cigarette into your coffee or just dip it in?  Grin
