ganyan talaga. Politiko nga talaga ng pilipinas. Wala naman tayong magagawa jan kasi walang masyadong competition dito. dapat talaga may mga magbukas nang foreign service providers.
Sa katunayan ay meron nang nagoffer, tinatawag itong 'Telstra'. Pero sa kasamaang palad hindi na ata matutuloy ang proyekto nila sa kadihilanang hindi 'daw' pinayagan ng mga nangunguna kompanya sa Network Service sa Pilipinas. At dahil dito nawalan nanaman ng opportunidad na magkaroon pa ng mas mabilis Network Service at Internet dito. Hindi parin sapat ang magkaroon lamang tayo ng Fiber-Optic Cables, mas mainam parin ang pagkakaroon ng madami provider dito, ng magkaroon naman ng kaginhawaan dito.

In fact,most casinos do falsely claim that they adopt provably fair gambling for which every player is not able to verify whether they are provably fair or not.
I doubt such gambling brands also have no legal licence for their service.
You see in gambling it is more chance that you will tend to lose than on winning, so basically the casino is cheating on you right from the start that you've played. So the players tend to cheat or in other terms it is what we called 'cooperation', they will play the game as if that they don't even know each other but what they're doing is that they're letting one person to win by signalling the other members, they had this planned so the chances of winning is very high. So if you can see its obvious that every casino has so many cameras and securities. Even if they knew that their profit is at the top.

So far as Bitcoin can be converted into any other money(fiats) and vice versa I think it's money. It has all the properties of money and even more through the decentralized blockchain technology backing its usage.
Then how would answer about Gold then? Its value can be converted to Fiat and also vice versa. It doesn't have all the properties of money since it is 'decentralized', I don't know why even said that. Bitcoin is somewhat more close to Gold than being money. It is an intangible object that has its value whenever we convert it to Fiat, we can also mine it; trade like gold. But as I've analyze it, its somewhat like  a hybrid of the two, I mean combining Gold and Money is equals to Bitcoin.

The only games I can think of where a decent sum of btc can be won are fantasy sports games related to gambling similar to draft kings or fanduel.

RPG's, MMORPG's and other games involving btc usually payout similar to faucets. You can earn btc that way but for most it probably wouldn't be worth the time and effort if you're planning to use it as a way to earn income.
Well it would only be the famous game platform that can have Bitcoin as means of their currency, but there's still space for the those games that you've mentioned you see the thing that it would have its advantage of is that it is less risky that those of what the gambling games. So its still possible for other games to have their chance to take over the Bitcoin as their currency.

The Internet has a lot of work for skilled workers and not qualified. Just the offers are too scattered in the network and they are hard to find. When will the specialized labour exchanges in the Internet payment in bitcoins the spread of bitcoin will be much faster.
Hmm your opinion is not as bad as you think it is, its not hard to find online jobs. You really just need to have such knowledge on where to find them. But you have to be weary because the availability of online jobs increased as well as these scammers.

Even if they offer Bitcoin as payment it will not make things easier as you still have to have knowledge about it.
226  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin Sound Money? on: September 16, 2017, 12:22:48 PM
I don't understand why people keep comparing gold to bitcoin within the context of currency. Gold hasn't been used as currency for over a hundred years. People wear gold and the buy it to keep as an investment (store of value). When was the last time you saw some one buying something with gold coins? The only reason gold coins are made is for investment purposes, it's nostalgic to have it in an actual coin form.

Further gold is a metal. Bitcoin is electronic, not tangible, it's different on so many levels.

actually you get it i dont know too but they are still comparing it gold cannot be bitcoin anymore so why they believe that bitcoin is better than gold?
Actually it is mate, if you analyze what is the current news about bitcoin vs gold you would've realized it already. I mean just months ago the only thing that makes Bitcoin better than gold is its availability since you still need to mine gold (literally) in order for you to get it, not only that you also need to process it before you really get your hands on 'the gold'. Whilst in Bitcoin its availability is easy, its just right around the corner. But now it is not just its availability but also its value that have its advantage over gold.
227  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin has defeated gold on: September 16, 2017, 11:44:46 AM
Bitcoin: $1260/BTC
Gold: $1241/xau
Well, I can not believe that the Bitcoin prices has crossed over gold sooner than I expect. I thought the process would be finished in April. Wow, Bitcoin is truly worth and everyone who has sold their Bitcoin has made a huge mistake. Nothing can stop Bitcoin right now.
It is really awesome that with just a short span of time bitcoin has already made its way to the top to reach the highest rating mineral in the world which is gold. It is just a proof that bitcoin is really a fast growing currency that has been established in the world. We are still hoping and expecting that this will continuously rise for it to be more beneficial.
There is no doubt that bitcoins are going to rise further in price soon, making all the holders new millionaires of the world. Bitcoins have by clear margin beaten up gold in the race of most expensive investments. Bitcoins are not only currency but a digital mode of investment.
You're quite right there mate. As of now, Bitcoin has defeated gold in the means of value by beating up the clear margin for gold. Well there's no doubt about it that it will a chance to have so many millionaires around this year since the price of Bitcoin really hit the spot of the moon.
228  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin money? on: September 16, 2017, 11:12:58 AM
I do not think I do not think of bitcoin as money. I think bitcoin is something of great value. Bitcoin is something of great value if it is in exchange for money. Just like gold, gold is something of high value if in money. But bitcoin is not visible a.k.a virtual. I think money is money, bitcoin is bitcoin.
You compare Bitcoin as it was Gold because it is not money because it was like a thing that can have a value when converted to fiat, is this the way you see Bitcoin? Well personally, you might have a point, but if you would think about its a currency, that's why it is called a cryptocurrency because it is a currency existed digitally.

I think it can, as you can all see bitcoin is gaining wide variety of influence all over the world. I think it's popularity can help in making bitcoin legalized all over the world. When bitcoin is legalized already everywhere, the increase of investors and users will surely follow. As it grows up, the number of people whose life will be changed will also follow until it reaches almost everyone and that's when we can conclude that bitcoin has ended world poverty.
Did you know about the supply and demand? If there is too much supply then it will like to have less demand, so the price will come into play. If there is less demand therefore the price is also not that high. That's behind the economy of this.

Even if it will be legalized worldwide it will still not be enough to make a difference.
231  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin just an asset ? on: September 11, 2017, 04:38:33 PM
I think Bitcoin is asset for many peoples and specially for me its my future assets.Beacuse still now i can not my life is imagine without Bitcoin.I am fully depnad on BTC.
Making it as an asset is not a bad thing really. Yes eventually Bitcoin will be your savior in the brink of being broke. It can change one life especially in his financial status.

So you fully depend on Bitcoin, therefore you made as your job right now, to make a living not bad for starters.
232  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin reduces unemployment on: September 11, 2017, 04:22:25 PM
For me bitcoin does not reduce unemployment because there is no employee-employer relationship that take place rather bitcoin helps does unemployed people to earn income even without permanent job and while at home while waiting for job opportunities.
Exactly, bitcoin is not a factor that cause for unemployment rate of the country but it could be a big factors to change our life. The reason of having unemployment increase is that of limited jobs opportunity given by the government or by establishment but the population still increasing. That's why some of unemployed person go somewhere else to find a job and earned money, and they found bitcoin that could solved their problem. In general bitcoin is just an opportunity to unemployed person to have an income, not causing them to become jobless. 
in fact many people use bitcoin for their income and I also use bitcoin for my work and my main income. I have no other work at the moment and this is proof that bitcoin reduces poverty and unemployment in a country
No mate, in fact you're still unemployed. You see the government has these survey things, AND if you're working in either public or private sector then probably you're working under the government but if you don't have any job at all then the government will consider you as an unemployed citizen.

No matter how much you earn in this community, you will never be considered as employed because for one the currency is decentralized - the government has nothing to do with it.

In my opinion unemployment is bad for one reason only - you make little to nothing money and it's hard to live like this. If Bitcoin provides you with enough money, who cares how the government calls you? deppil said that Bitcoin reduces poverty and unemployment in his country, and I'm sure he's right about that. In his and in my country too Bitcoin provides jobs, real jobs from which you can get above an average wage, so yeah, Bitcoin definitely reduces unemployment.
Well there you have it, you've already said it mate. You've answered what I really mean but then at end of your statement you disagree with me. I'm confused.

The main point there is that, the government are the ones who determines if you're employed or unemployed. For God's sake, its very simple to understand. Bitcoin is decentralized so the government have nothing to do with it. So no matter how much you earn from Bitcoin the government don't care about that because it is decentralized. So the status of being employed is you having a job under the government - public or private sectors AND you having your salary FROM the government. ALSO having tons of taxes out of how much you've earned. Do you experience such things when you earn Bitcoin? I think not.

SO, I'm gonna ask you a question now, are you an employed citizen UNDER the GOVERNMENT's premises?
233  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin money? on: September 11, 2017, 03:52:11 PM
i think Bitcoin is not money, but Bitcoin is a new way to earn money, like we plant rice and then we sell to earn money, gold mining then we sell to earn money, and that's how we are today, looking for bitcoin and then sold for money , i think so
For God's sake mate, do you even realized why Bitcoin belonged as one of the cryptocurrencies? Because it is money, a different kind of money, a digital money to be precise. Digitally speaking, Bitcoin is like data that is being gathered in order to make reliable information, we mine it and can be earned by using different platforms. As we gather these data we combine all sorts of data and create an information, now that is profit. As we go on and learn how to make information we make that information somehow be readable by the users, so we convert that information and become the graphical user interface or what we called money. And as we are using that GUI - since it is understandable by the users the transactions will be easier for them.
234  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why people are holding Bitcoin? on: September 11, 2017, 03:36:05 PM
by holding bitcoin, people us getting profitable, its better than they stock their money into their bank accounts. bitcoin price changes hour by hour, it can pump anytime, and withdrew it if needed, anytime, anywhere.
Have you ever heard the term HODL? It means that you're dramatically holding your coins to the extent that you knew when will most likely be the highest peak yet of a certain coin. So lot of speculations and even knowledge about this is required in order for you to achieve that. But as of now, its not always a good idea to hold those coins that long, I mean years? Well probably it will have a great result but the best thing to do is to just use what you're earning maybe 1/2 or 3/4 of all of what you have then HODL the rest. The best investment is by spending it.
235  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is Becoming a Global Currency on: September 11, 2017, 02:27:25 PM
Yes indeed it is. Every moment that passes is just getting better and better for Bitcoin. It is growing more and more and more, with each Facebook share, each Twitter post, each ICO, anything to promote Bitcoin and cryptos is good for us. Smiley
Despite being involved in these social medias and even in the media itself, it doesn't mean that it will also help to grow the community even more. You see the investors and traders already knew these cryptos and have already acquired the knowledge that is need in order for them to have such profits, without the help of social medias.

The social medias are only the bridges or they're just advertising their coins, Bitcoin or not, that is the only purpose it provides. But that doesn't mean that it will make these cryptos grow, I mean there will always be competitions.
236  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What to do with the people who don't like Bitcoin? on: September 11, 2017, 02:11:25 PM
dont mind it hahaha, dont tell him again about bitcoin, but show him about you story in bitcoin and good things about bitcoin, i think they will regret in in a year or 2 years, because bitcoin will more popular in a years on 2 years again
The truth is we don't need that kind of popularity in out community as long as the people participating here has the same goal as others then it would be enough. We need people who knows and understands the concept of Bitcoin and how it works.

You see people discovers Bitcoin, and not vice versa. These investors and traders that have already participated in community are the ones who're the heart and soul of it all to make this community even more developed.
237  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin money? on: September 10, 2017, 03:59:37 PM
The type of each currency is quite the same, but the existence, not so much. Also there are so many things that differ cryptos to Fiats don't you think? There are still few countries that have accepted Bitcoin as means of payment so for sure you could say that they have the aspects as Fiats, but also consider also that there are still many things that can not be covered by Bitcoin, especially in the governments premises.
238  Economy / Economics / Re: Can Bitcoin End World Poverty? on: September 10, 2017, 03:05:51 PM
I feel Bitcoin can not conclude globe poverty but it can lease poverty. Not all know BTC and use BTC like inadequate people do not have mobile or laptop computer to be utilized. But like us that we know BTC we can lease poverty by helping men and women around us. 
Inadequate you say? What do you mean by that? Can't you just say that there are still people that are not computer literate or those people who doesn't have that kind of knowledge or they still don't have that kind of technology. I think it is not an issue right now because almost all countries already have such technology.

Setting that aside I think even if we have the knowledge in earning Bitcoin that is not enough even as if we wanted to just lease the global poverty I mean this a major problem. There roots of this problem, I mean the first step in eradicating this major problem is to figure out what's causing the problem and make solutions for it.Therefore Bitcoin can't even reduce world poverty.
239  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why some people prefer Bitcoin over fiat ? on: September 10, 2017, 02:44:27 PM
Among other reasons, and I think why bitcoin shines, is the fact that it is not regulated by government agencies.
It is because it is decentralized and all, the fiat economy is very different from the cryptos even if the governments also have digital currency (through credit cards). The reason why government can't get their hands on the Cryptos is because it is too difficult for them to crack it.
Quote
There is freedom of its use among its holders.. Whether it be used for bad or good, it is fine.. because after all, even fiat money are being used for either good or bad transactions as well.
It is because it was made to be used freely, that is mainly the whole concept of Bitcoin all in all. No matter how you use it, you're master of what you wanted to do with it. Its not like the Fiats where so many questions will be asked if you wanted to use large amounts of it in just one go.
240  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is Becoming a Global Currency on: September 10, 2017, 02:29:27 PM
Bitcoin will become global currency even though their country has not legalized bitcoin, bitcoin makes it easy for us to transact and bitcoin is also very easy to use, there is no special requirement to start using bitcoin. so bitcoin into global currency makes a very of sense.
Well logically speaking, it is already a global currency so to speak. I mean it was created to be used freely in many different platforms. And not to mention its availability is obviously worldwide. Even when many countries have already banned this currency still they can only ban its usage in that specific country but you still can access it, if you're skilled enough if you know what I mean, but once they've discovered that you're still using it you'll be considered as a criminal so take caution bout this.

Yes it is true there are no special requirement for you start using Bitcoin, just the basics I guess, a device (phone or PC) and an internet connection.
