221  Bitcoin / Group buys / Re: Would a group buy of solar panels be allowed in this forum? on: March 11, 2015, 04:32:52 AM
I think a group buy like this would be really cool, except i don't live in America... I think if someone could get these at good prices they would be a great investment log term that would work well with mining hardware.

3% is not too bad, to be able to buy bitcoin with my bank account in my country cost me nearly %15 above market price! It is not great but I should be able to make this money back easily when I go to sell more.
223  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What did you do with your bitcoin today? on: March 10, 2015, 11:54:15 PM
Made a little bit extra fiat money with the price rise  Grin
It's always nice to see your purchasing power go up, hopefully it doesn't stop.

I think the idea of doing a parlay for a few of the upcoming games will be good as you can make a nice tidy profit betting on games you should be able to pick fairly easily  Grin
However as for pakistan ireland my money will be on pakistan.

Why does he need to know my phone number?
Weird.

Same, this is the only thing putting me off joining... Bitcoin is meant tobe anonymous..if someone has my phone number.. i am no longer anonymous..

You can easily buy a sim card for like a dollar or two and recieve a new phone number you can use for many things or even just use an online service.
226  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: So Peter Thiel isn't as negative as before? on: March 10, 2015, 11:37:37 PM
I don't think a price change would change someones negativity that much in my opinion. Jut because somethings cost goes up does not mean it is any more effective, it is the same bitcoin as before with a few more buyers than sellers.
227  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Cannot Succeed (heres why) on: March 10, 2015, 11:33:46 PM
If one bitcoin is worth one million dollars, how is it remotely imaginable that these exchanges will not just run off with the coins?

Assuming that trade volume would be on current level, BTC-e for example would earn 15396*0,2%= 30,7BTC = over 30 millions $ of daily income. Still tempting to commit robbery?  Cheesy
But volume in single exchange couldn't be as huge as it is now, because:

- in most cases people will change some satoshis only
- world's BTC exchange volume would be dispersed on much more places and services than now, because such valuable asset surely will attract everybody's attention

I think by that time that happens the volume on many exchanges will fall massively, we may even go back to the talk of using mBTC for everything rather than whole bitcoins.

Did you really expect him to payout? He was a member with not a lot of credibility who can easily just leave and never pay... In these situations if the bet is serious escrow is a must... Atleast this is a lesson learnt for next time Tongue
229  Economy / Auctions / Re: [Auction] Silver Wallet - You pick! on: March 10, 2015, 11:08:41 PM
I guess I will start you of with 0.15, this is pretty cool. What kind of shipping do you use?
Goodluck with sales.
230  Economy / Speculation / Re: OMG Its soon going to be $300 on: March 10, 2015, 11:01:20 PM
290 on bitstamp. I hope we see it going up a bit higher and remain optimistic but honestly I think it will settle around this price for a little while or maybe even dipping a little bit. Although I don't really trade much.
231  Other / Politics & Society / Re: "Geopolitical Situation Most Dangerous Since WWII" on: March 10, 2015, 10:55:38 PM
Each day we see the world looking more and more like it is headed to another big war... For all we know we are already half way there and it is only a matter of time. it is quite sad to see...
232  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Entry-level Scrypt Miner? on: March 10, 2015, 10:54:01 PM
Honestly anything you can find pretty cheap are good, you will find it easy to learn how to pull the most out of the hardware. Are you looking to profit well or just get started and hope for the best? (It may depend on what miner I recommend based on wattage etc.)
233  Economy / Goods / Re: Buy GLITTER BOMB GREETING CARDS with Bitcoin on: March 10, 2015, 10:50:09 PM
These are cool but I think they would be better in like a capsual thing where it springs up and goes everywhere, from what I can tell this will just fall in front of them and be a small annoyance Tongue
234  Economy / Economics / Re: why do people agree to pay taxes? on: March 10, 2015, 10:48:29 PM
It is generally to serve the masses. You may not get the full use of your money but others do, Is this fair? Maybe not but it helps your country you live in. It reminds me of a story of a farmer who's whole property got destroyed, when people came they gave him money for it all and he said he did not want to take charity they replied have you been paying your taxes all your life? If so this money is already yours, you've been paying for it all your life.
235  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Should I start an Escrow Service? on: March 10, 2015, 10:38:31 PM
You can if you wish but from what I can see with most people if you are in it for the money you are unlikely to make to much for a bit of time and effort.
236  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is anyone still living out of Bitcoin? on: March 10, 2015, 10:37:21 PM
There are many big sites that accept bitcoin but are not related, an example being dell and dish who both accept bitcoin.
But I guess those sites accept Bitcoin as an experiment, but make their living out of fiat money.

The whole point is that when I think about bitcoin, the only people I know who admit to make money out of it are gamblers and speculators.
And their final goal is to use bitcoin as a temporary method to increase their fiat money. That is a symptom of failure.
Small companies like shops are really skeptical and some of them declare to have lost money by accepting bitcoin,
If real and honest work is being exchanged for bitcoin, for me that is a symptom of success.

Most wil keep cashing out in fiat due the fact Bitcoin is still in its infancy. As merchant adoption arises it will be more and more pointless to cash out for deprecating fiat.

Exactly, especially when a business needs to pay for things such as tax they will need to hold enough fiat to pay that of along with other costs that arise.

Alright, I recieved a vouch copy of the game Advanced Warfare and got the game quickly and tested it. All went well.

238  Economy / Speculation / Re: You Waited Long Enough ... $300 Bitcoin Happens Today!!! on: March 10, 2015, 10:45:27 AM
It looks like it is going to happen finally. This I think is great news for bitcoin to see the price going up over time since the last major bubble.
239  Economy / Speculation / Re: RISINg BTC on: March 10, 2015, 10:24:32 AM
I think some people were fearing that the silk road bitcoins would be instantly dumped however this has not happen and there is a number of buyers now.
240  Economy / Speculation / Re: 100 bitcoins. Will I be a millionaire by 2020? on: March 10, 2015, 10:22:27 AM
Unfortunately I do not think you will be a millionaire however I think you might have a fair amount of money by that time. It is not impossible for that to happen, I guess this is like when bitcoin hit $150 for the first time and I thought that would be the highest price we would see for a long long time Tongue
