2161  Economy / Economics / Re: The Halving - Good or Bad for Bitcoin? on: September 13, 2016, 04:35:02 AM
after halving price bitcoin is flat
because accident bitfinex, but still is enough good not bad
and i think its now bitcoin price trend up
i think can reach price in end year 800 dollar every one bitcoin
That's possible and i think it's very easy for bitcoin to reach that. This month the bitcoin is still going up and i think before this year ends the price would $900-1000. So it's advisable to buy more bitcoin while its cheap and keep it for long term because just after a few more months our investments will really pay off Roll Eyes.
I am so confident that our patience will pay off before the end of the year, investors are starting have high hopes that their investment will grow on the bitcoins they bought before the halving because the price is starting to surge, this will continue and we cash out by the end of the year.
2162  Economy / Economics / Re: What percentage of people on Earth will own Bitcoin by 2020 on: September 13, 2016, 04:31:06 AM
Anybody want to do the math with me?

There are 10.5 million bitcoin addresses in existence and 5.7 million with balances equal to $1 or greater, according to this site: https://bitinfocharts.com/top-100-richest-bitcoin-addresses.html.

Let's be generous and assume that of the 5.7m addresses that a different person owns each address. We know that's not true so this will be a very generous estimate.

5.7 million people with a bitcoin address (therefore using bitcoin) out of 7.4 billion people in the world. That results in ~0.0007% of the worlds population using bitcoin!

So the scale of this poll isn't very realistic, but it's still fun to talk about.

Let's lower our population to just those that have access to the internet, because without the internet you can't really get your hands on any coin. (You even need the internet to buy one of Mike Caldwell's Casascius coins!)

There are 3.2 billion people with access to the internet.  http://www.lmgtfy.com/?q=How+many+people+have+access+to+the+internet%3F

5.7m people with a bitcoin address out of 3.2b people ups our digital currency savvy share of the population to ~0.0017%!

Crazy small percentages. But that's ok. It means there's a lot of upside! We all just need to keep spreading the word.

Thanks for this simple math, not simple either but this is much more realistic than the other statistics that are coming out.

So the total of the users of bitcoin as of today are not even reaching 1% of the world's population, I'm not surprised either.

But if we are going to think about it since 2009, good thing that there are already 0.0017% of world's population in total who uses bitcoin.

That is really fast if we are going to think and technology is been very fast when it comes to adoption and innovation so for sure in 2020 this percentage is going to increase.
What is more important there is we are increase in numbers on a yearly basis, as long as we see a good price, for sure more people will be interested to adopt and us bitcoin, I don't care if we are just less that 1% of the total population in the world as long as we are increasing in numbers.
2163  Economy / Economics / Re: How too get rich on: September 13, 2016, 04:23:32 AM
To get rich like really rich only one way is to wait for the right time if it ever happens that bitcoin goes below 100 dollar again be sure to buy alot if its right.
Then if it goes up again to 1k then you sell them all and then maybe you can win alot of profit this is how most bitcoin people got alot of money but you have to be there at the right time.
Yes to get rich we really need to wait until the bitcoin price goes bellow to 100 dollar more maybe down agian and 100% sure that all of us are going to buy lots of bitcoin and wait till the price goes up, Up to 1 thousand dollars or more and sell them thats the biggest profit you will ever made in your whole life.
You need to wait forever because that will not happen anymore or if chances will happen though very slim there is no guarantee that the price of $100 per bitcoin will increase, because I see once in that state bitcoin is already dying then.
2164  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: People hate Bitcoins? on: September 13, 2016, 04:18:43 AM
Do you think that people hate bitcoins why?
Are you hate bitcoins or like it.........
But my answer is I LIKE BITCOIN.
bitcoin is currently unusually high price increases. the higher the price of Bitcoin more people hunting, many people will like it because the world today more and more hunting bitcoin. I like bitcoin as income from bitcoin can change my life.
This is what I am hating that there are more people who are supporting bitcoins that its haters and there is no argument with that because the price itself can prove already how valuable bitcoin is in the eyes of the money and this price will continue to increase.
2165  Other / Off-topic / Re: 2017 Year of the Bitcoin on: September 13, 2016, 04:15:53 AM
We are seeing that important people in the world of technology and innovation are preparing to announce services in the next year, involving the use of Bitcoin. This leads me to believe that we may have a great opportunity ahead.

Thanks for this encouraging words, then I do believe that 2017 is going to be innovative and amazing year again for bitcoin. Because if these important or famous people are the one who are going to advertise and introduce bitcoin to a lot of audience then for sure that is going to have big impact in the economy and the demand of bitcoin is going to increase for sure.
2016 has helped so much on pushing the price, so it is a guaranteed progress for the year 2016, I have speculated that the price will rise up to $1,000 this year alone and if that will not happen then there is 2017 to do that, for sure we can surpass the best price of bitcoin so far by year 2017.
2166  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin or gold? on: September 13, 2016, 04:07:58 AM
If you had to convert all your wealth to either Bitcoin or gold and keep it there for 10 years, which would you choose? Keep in mind the fact that Bitcoin has only been around for 5 years, and could be fundamentally different in any number of ways in 10 years.
i will use half money is to convert btc in gold and half in bitcoin ..because i think to turn the money in gold is not much powerfully profitable than bitcoin . so i will use the both as saving currency to get a net profit instead to get loss .

What I am thinking that profit in gold is slow,imo. But I know some people are getting good profit with gold but for sure they are already in the business for a long time. So if ever I will going to enter gold the competition is already tough enough, but if I will going to choose bitcoin the competition is not that tough enough as only the people know bitcoin are still few.
That is because investing gold needs a great amount of capital to be successful, if you do not have a great amount of money as your capital then there is always a better option which is investing in bitcoin, for sure you will be satisfied as the coins is now looking good to be more successful in the future.
2167  Other / Archival / Re: Do you use bitcoin as currency or investment? on: September 13, 2016, 03:42:45 AM
Right now I only use bitcoin as an investment. I haven't accumulated enough to start spending on a larger scale with it. I plan to get a few more bitcoins before I can start using it for purchases.

Good thing that you have investments already with bitcoin. But with me, I am already using bitcoin as type of currency. Good thing that we can use it here in my country for buying in an exchange website for their service.

I have only few investments with bitcoin, first is that I am holding some amount and waiting for the price increase that is going to come.

And the other is with trading of alt coins.
At least your choose to invest in bitcoin which I believe will give us a good future, the good thing with bitcoin is we will be able to use it as currency also and if we love to spend online it would be easy to use especially when you love gambling online, there are variety of casinos to choose from.
2168  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: September 13, 2016, 03:20:01 AM
Gambling is like medicine that we need to take everyday gambling can be addicted if we are going to play it everyday and we gonna lost profit or money or bitcoin there too gambling can't make us rich by betting and loosing money instead of holding that money for purposes in life and buy some thing.
It is never a medicine, it is like a drugs that we are looking for it all the time because we are addicted with it but never a medicine because it can never cure our disease in gambling,  it will only give us a future problem if we will not be able to control ourselves.
2169  Economy / Economics / Re: Why have Bitcoin instead of cash? on: September 13, 2016, 03:14:56 AM
We generally invest in bitcoin not because of high and encrypted security or digital transition.we invest them as they give us profit directly or indirectly.yes bitcoin have compact parameter which make it more flexible and reliable.

That could be right. Most of us invest in bitcoin because it has limited supplies, so the value will increase later.
\

I invested also because of that and also because I believe in the blockchain. I believe that blockchain has unlimited possibilities that is why it will rise in value in the future.
You invested also yeah you're believing in blockchain? the reason and the reason you are using bitcoin instead of cash well for me im prefered to use it both because we need cash to have bitocoin if we are going to buy some and we need bitcoin to have cash also so that two are very important.
Earning bitcoin online is a great opportunity regardless of what you do, bitcoin is worth to us because for now this is a good investment opportunity but at the end of the day we will cash out or bitcoin into fiat so we also need cash, they are both important I guess.
2170  Economy / Economics / Re: How many Bitcoin do you have saved? on: September 13, 2016, 03:10:29 AM
I have no bitcoins saved, just wasted everything on my new laptop, i believe it was not bad idea and i will not see bitcoin's price $700 tomorrow.

Well that is not a waste if you have used bitcoin for buying new laptop. That is what we can call as investment too, you have invested in gadget.

Because everything that you have used with bitcoin or money as long as you want or need that, it is already a good investment.

And regarding my status, I can't tell of how many bitcoins I have saved. I didn't reach 1 btc at all.
Definitely a lot is a good investment if you are going to use it in a profitable way, you can work online to earn as we know we are in the digital world now and most of the transactions are online so basically you can find great opportunity online.

2172  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: September 12, 2016, 04:12:48 AM
Recently i have read an article in smartrecovery.org and there is this one way that really caught up my attention " Visualize what will happen if you give in to the urge to gamble".  Very simple if you can do visualize what was the worst thing would happen if gamble.

This is very interesting, I'll go take a look about the article. Visualization is really important - to visualize what we really want our life would be. I remember when I was just in high school, I read this book creative visualization by shakti gawain. I can still vividly memorize its definition (I am not copy pasting it, promise!) Here is the definition: Creative Visualization is a technique of using your imagination to create what you want in your life.
You can always visualize but I doubt it would work in gambling because what we visualize is that we can win a big amount of money and we always gamble even if we are losing, our aim is possible but it is hard so we need to stay away if we cannot stand the loses.
2173  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Off-Season on: September 12, 2016, 04:09:45 AM
iam choose golden state warior can champhion NBA season 2016/2017
stpen curry is till good performance, and i hear kevin durant from oklahoma city thunde
can join to golden state warior , so warior can much big star and fantastic team

second place iam choose cleveland cavalier
Good luck to you, I hope your team wins, golden state warriors are getting stronger now but I do not think they will work the chemistry easily, it is not individual game only that will let a team get the championship bit it is more on the team work and cavaliers have that that is why they are champion.
2174  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you were rich, would you still gamble? on: September 12, 2016, 04:06:51 AM
i will not gambling for make money, but i am gambling for fun because i know that gambling will not give good money, we only get lose. so if i am rich, maybe i still gamble but i do gambling just for fun and not for make money.
It is fine to lose if we have a lot of money as when we are rich we will not be able to think of the money we lose but more on the entertainment we can get, satisfaction is our main concern to be happy so we can afford to lose and enjoy more in gambling because we have a lot of money to burn.
Of course, as rich person we should learn how to spend and not just receiving income, if we spend that is when we are getting the happiness when want and doing it in gambling is a good way to entertain ourselves because it can give us a great entertainment when we are rich.
2175  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: September 11, 2016, 02:28:48 PM
Try to invest it since by investing will made exponential profit rather than saving money that mostly providing constant profit

You can try investing by convert your 10% salary to bitcoin , as we can see now, bitcoin value are increased
That's right, because when you save you cannot grow your money and only in investment where we can have a great chances to grow our money. I know people are afraid of investment because they do not wanna go out of their comfort zone and they are only contented with the salary they are making and savings they are doing.
2176  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling loses and wins on: September 11, 2016, 02:24:06 PM
This is an open question it depends about what you're willing to play for is it just a  little bit or
you want to play for a hundred dollars. But i can tell you on a long run you will always lose winning is just sometimes.

Losing is the most likely outcome when you are gambling. It's not nice to lose money so if you care about your money you keep away from gambling or if you are looking for entertainment, don't make very large bets.

Exactly, that's why I play most of the time with faucet only. I can't afford to loose money, at least not hundreds of bucks, so I don't deposit money anymore. Gambling isn't for profit - that's just optional.
Yeah we cannot really treat gambling as our source of income and for me, gambling cannot help us in our daily lives. You cannot make gambling as if you can make money all the time. I think you must really focus in your work so that you can enjoy your money in the end from your hard work.
Not all can treat gambling as a source of income but I know that majority of us cannot do that, instead of source of income as the dream of the many, we are treating it as our expenses in reality because no matter how we tried and all the experimentation is done we still lose.
2177  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Turn Gambling into a Profitable Activity on: September 11, 2016, 02:20:27 PM
I hope we could, but gambling alone is not profitable because the word profitable is only good for the gambling operators, they are making money while we are contributing for their success so their is no way we can turn gambling into profitable activity if we are just a typical gambler.
2178  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: DigitalRupees [DRS] Twitter Bounty Campaign on: September 11, 2016, 02:14:55 PM
Is this COIN already in a certain exchange sites?  I have a suggestion, it is better for you to pay the participants in BTC so they will not dump their bounties which most likely the problem of the developer and will lose their avid investors, if they will dump the price will be affected so much so better with BTC. Anyway that is just my suggestion, OPAIR do it but until now it was not able to pay its participants yet.

2180  Economy / Services / Re: CoinMixer.se | Signature Campaign on: September 11, 2016, 02:02:42 PM
People should really think twice before joining this campaign, since OP doesn't mentioned for escrow and that one should really thr main requirement for a campaign so their participants will have assurance so they can get their payments on the right date and time, and also their is a scam campaign already happened here before,so people should really be more vigilants since he is offering also a mixing services.
There was actually a new thread for this campaign which was manage by SFR, I wonder why this thread was not close yet when SFR wants this thread to be close already by the OP to avoid confusion among the applicants.

I can't find the post from coinmixer.se that announce the managing had been handled to SFR, nor i can find SFR post to claim it. If I'm not mistaken, SFR will always made a post to state that he had given the position to handle a campaign. So I think coinmixer.se is still the admin.

Do you talking about different campaign? Do you mean bit.ac instead of coinmixer?
It is not actually BIT.AC campaign, maybe he was just mistakenly see it, by the way the campaign for BIT.AC is at here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1612970.0

But do not try to apply if you have no good writing communication because the manager is very strict.
