2201  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Launched : CryptoGiveaways.org - Faucet - Claim BTC, OK, EMC2, OZC, GRN and DMD on: April 11, 2017, 04:35:59 PM
There are many coins out here but none of them are the big altcoins. I mean you can add eth, ltc, dash, ripple, monero and so forth and gain a lot more exposure if you ask me. Not in a marketing way but core development way.

That is the only thing keeping this website, with those additions I think this might take off to new heights.
2202  Economy / Speculation / Re: Imagine how the guys that sold at $800 feel now on: April 11, 2017, 01:21:18 PM
Aslong as we get some profits with this well nothing wrong for selling on whatever price it is we have different decisions and surely our ideas will not meet and be the same and i believe those peoples who bought on 200$ level is sold their coins already for a long time. Remember  their are long time stability when price goes on 500-600$ up and surely people sold what they got and i am one of those seller for that price before.
You are right, active trader never mind about potential profits of future. They will always look for the profits which are possible within the day.

Always on one can be sure about future hence booking profits at any desired level before it will become late must be a meaningful action. Maybe those decisions turn wrong in future but we cannot be sure they again did not enter into bitcoin after seeing prices were running through $800 levels.
2203  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Can Hit $2K ? on: April 11, 2017, 07:37:16 AM
Lets fix bitcoin first. Dont pump when the fundamentals are shit. Otherwise it would be a pump&dump. It all depends on SegWit activation. Otherwise bitcoin wil be good for the homeless population.
There is nothing wrong with the fundamentals of bitcoin but with the number of transactions increasing we need to increase the block issue to include more transactions with every block and i am not sure whether segwit is the final solution but it is good to see some upgrade to counter that issue at least for the time being.
I too believe as of now if segwit will be getting activated, we can see bitcoin prices going beyond $2000 price levels.

I'm sure in near future segwit will come up again with some other solutions to solve scalability issue when the current solution of shrinking transactions will get its saturation levels. Instead of going with non-tested harforks, going with well-known soft fork seems a good solution for me.
2204  Economy / Speculation / Bitcoin will get half million dollars prices by 2030 : Blockchain.info CEO on: April 10, 2017, 04:50:23 PM
I believe everyone will love this speculation. Read on this here : https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/bitcoin-price-hit-500000-2030-says-snapchats-first-investor

They are not just throwing blind balls but come with solid evidences to support their speculation.

Usually both positive and negative speculations will occur quicker than expected. We may speculate price levels some what accurately but not the time frame. So, time of 2030 may  shrink to 2025 too, what you think ?
2205  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How i can Start Trading !!!! on: April 10, 2017, 03:02:18 PM
You can start trading by trying it first is choose a trading site then deposit and then start trading just use 0.001 bitcoin became it's your first time with that 0.001 try the trading an know how trading works and after that maybe a 1 week start the real trading with a big money that is involve.
But but no one should start trading, once decided to do so. We must ask ourselves whether we are already for risking our capital ? Because losses is part of trading and how we are going to tackle the risk levels by showing our knowledge and skill is the key whether we need to start right away or after getting ready.

Choosing site and depositing money are things, anyone could do, but the catch is how effectively and how profitably we are going to do trading is really matter and we need to get ready for ourselves for these things.
2206  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How is trading *not* gambling? on: April 10, 2017, 02:13:37 PM
The only thing that gambling and trading have in common is that they both have a (big) risk factor. From there they can't be viewed in the same light imo.
But I believe only the risk factor and how we are going to tackle those risks makes some people here to think about both trading and gambling as one similar thing. When risk is common and how we are managing it is common why not both of trading and gambling could be performed in similar way ?

Gambling requires alot of luck and isn't as profitable as trading in the long run, the house wins in the long run most of the times. Trading can be quite sustainable in the long run if you've done a good technical analysis and a complete background check of the coins you're trading. Just because it takes risk doesn't make it gambling imo.
When people using their luck to make profits from both trading and gambling, they are somewhat successful and they could not distinguish these two as two different fields. In my personal experience, I could not make profits in trading only by having strong skill and knowledge. I believe I must need luck in trading too.
2207  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Hold or Sell on: April 10, 2017, 01:49:13 PM
I decide depending on the coin i will be trading with.If the coin im with in is fast moving,i always buy as many as i can and just sell it at profit margin and i dont wait for higest possible price.And if the coin is slowly moving i just buy small quantity and just wait for the highest possible price i can sell it into.

That is the right strategy to follow especially when you are trading altcoins as you need to be very active in it and should have a close watch on the price movements but as far as bitcoin is concerned I will prefer to hold ti for some more months.
You mean you want to hold altcoins four months ? I'm sorry to say it will be a wrong decision because you cannot be sure when altcoins will find their next rally.

Holding will be advised only in the case of bitcoin trading and for altcoins, like you stated, we need to be very active every day to find a right prices to book profits, holding may get you losses in most of the cases.
2208  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Prediction ligue 1, france football league on: April 07, 2017, 04:25:11 PM
I think it won’t be even close. Nice is like 3rd in the league being closest to PSG and Monaco, they will probably want to win this tos tay close, I don’t think they have a championship chance but they don’t want to give up neither. I think they will want to destroy Lille, who is 13th in the league and has no hope for anything. Easy game if you ask me.
2209  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: April 07, 2017, 04:04:17 PM
Warriors guard Shaun Livingston hit his first three of the season Wednesday night vs. Phoenix and it was an amazing one because it was actually a bad lob that hit the glass and turned into a basket for mighty Golden State.

For the record, Livingston has only made 13 three-pointers in his NBA career. Teammate Stephen Curry made 13 in a game vs. New Orleans last November.
He has not been able to develop an outside shot over the course of his career, partly maybe due to the injuries that could have kept him from playing years ago. Although Livingston doesn't really shoot much from the 3 point distance, he has proven to be a valuable player off the bench for the Warriors over the last three seasons.
You know what I find weird about the 3 point stats of Shaun Livingston? He is actually a great mid range shooter. It is not like a Center who can’t shoot and only can dunk. He has a silky smooth shoot from mid. He hit like only 13 total on his career with that talent.

I think it is kind of related to him not wanting to shoot or something else. If a person can hit from mid range that good I am sure he can be AT LEAST %30 from 3’s, its interesting.
2210  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What Is Bitcoin Trading and Why It's risky? on: April 06, 2017, 08:18:45 PM
Trading market always risky. You must have good activity the whole trading market and will experiment, make right prediction, otherwise it will become high risk. Skills yourself where a very basic level, there are obvious sources of risk.
Yes, when we are capable of making right predictions, there will be no risk in any trading.

Unfortunately making accurate predictions will not be possible for all the traders unless they are good with their technical analysis. We must learn skills and gain experience before entering into bitcoin trading otherwise it will remain so risky. I guess profit in bitcoin trading is so easy but we should be enough skilled for that.
2211  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are You Disappointed In Trading? on: April 06, 2017, 08:00:32 PM
we should treat those mistakes as a stepping stone on our trading career because it would mold us to be a better trader and we should learn new things on our past mistakes and dont easily give up when we do experience lose and we should think that we are paying for our learning.
Yes when the trading materials are not versatile enough to teach us as the aspects of trading environment, we do not have any option other than learning from our own mistakes.

Honestly no teacher could cover all the possibilities of what are the mistakes one trader may make or how one trader will get disappointment in trading. Literally there are millions of variations.
That is true. How market prices are showing ups and downs, similarly traders life also will be fluctuating ups and down between happy moments and disappointed moments.

When we are agreeing like losses are also part of trading, we also must admit that disappointments also part of trading. We must make use of disappointment for improving ourselves to make good decisions in future trades. When traders are failing to make use of those lessons from disappointments, they could never find improvement in their trading.
2212  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin money? on: April 06, 2017, 07:40:07 PM
I maintain that per these definitions, Bitcoin cannot possibly be described as "money". And further, I think that those who do describe Bitcoin as "money" are doing this community a disservice.

But that is just my point of view. Are there any that can convincingly argue otherwise, that Bitcoin IS money?
I don’t understand what your backing up your argument with.
All the definitions you gave seem to me to suggest that it is a new form of money. Money is like you said a payment for goods that both parties can agree on.

I don’t believe it has to be universally accepted for the same reason that confederate dollars during the Civil War in the United States were still money even though the Union didn’t honor them as currency. Also, how is it a disservice?
2213  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin better or paypal? on: April 06, 2017, 07:32:23 PM
100% bitcoin is much better than paypal,

In paypal you have to disclose all you identitys and you have to give your identity proofs , in paypal transaction reverse is very famous to scam. and i personally saw paypal and the procedure of it is very bad. and their charges also heavy.

In bitcoin you dont have to disclose your identitys , you can just create a hardware or online web wallet and give your wallet address where ever you want to receive or pay the bitcoins. the transaction charges are also less. and more it is irreversible, and about converting to fiat currency their are so many exchanges where you can convert it one is like localbitcoins.com which is having so many user who are ready to buy or sell and do transaction through bank transfer.

But you have more protection using Paypal. You can reverse a payment if you are scammed by somebody else.
Paypal is good because more people know what it is and use it. The problem is with the scams that occur like those posted above. Bitcoin, if you can find someone who will accept it, is way better. Scams are harder especially with escrow and transactions are quicker. I would not use paypal unless the person I was dealing with didn’t have bitcoin...its just not worth it. Be careful if you use paypal basically in summary is my advice.
2214  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC Ban on: April 06, 2017, 07:20:12 PM
All people deserve internet freedom, and banning bitcoin at this point of time is almost equal to banning internet freedom.

Well I think they will not ban bitcoin without a just reason. And freedom does not mean do anything, it comes with limitations and responsibility.
I don’t think a ban on bitcoin is very practical. It definitely won’t stop it’s use. It will just go underground and can’t be used at the corporate level. I mean even if your in a communist country like Russia or North Korea and the block access to websites outside the country you can still get around them very easily with a VPN. I don’t see a reason for a ban on the currency either. If a government doesn’t like it, they don’t need to implement it.
2215  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin make Banks disappear? on: April 06, 2017, 06:36:55 PM
I think bitcoin can't make bank disappear because banks are still more useful than bitcoin and banks are run by the goverment and the government are more powerful than the people who runs bitcoin. But if no one are still using the bank there's a big chance that bitcoin can make the bank disappear.
Bitcoin and banks are totally unrelated. Bitcoin is a currency and banks are a financial intermediary to facilitate borrowing and saving of money. They also keep transfer fees down. If bitcoin were to be used by everyone they would still keep banks for the same reason we have banks now for every other currency.

The only difference between Bitcoin and other currency that would affect banks is that Bitcoin is decentralized. That may be the confusion. Just because a currency is decentralized doesn’t mean it doesn’t need banks.
2216  Economy / Economics / Re: The future of the paper money on: April 06, 2017, 03:28:26 PM
Well you should be ready for the change and you will actually have electronic economy / cashless society very soon. You feel unfortunate about it, well AU gov't want to nail out your taxes properly. I'm thinking that countries that are nearby Australia will do the same thing and they'll think it as a success with their technology.
There is no doubt that we are going toward a cashless society and more and more going to use digital money to pay for thing s instead of paper money, but I think it is going to take some time because people are used to using paper money and changing that is kind of hard.

Besides electronic money encourages more money theft, I mean what is easy stealing money from your pocket or from your digital wallet.
2217  Economy / Economics / Re: Which one is good, trading or investing? on: April 06, 2017, 02:18:11 PM
Most of the investment things are simply ponzi schemes which are illagal and tries to steal your investment. So, if you're very keen on trading, just go ahead. Otherwise, it is not meaningful to lose your bitcoins in trading.

Most people who have never invested just always compare an investment with something deceptive.

You should try it first in one of HYIP businesses, of course with a lot of consideration, after which you can assess the implementation of the real situation. Trade is better than investing because always be actively encouraged in any direction, while investing only entrust our money to be managed by a group of people/companies. This is not a problem because it truly be our own decision to take risk to accept the offer.
That is it you said it yourself, trading is working on your own with your money, investing is giving people your money and except profit, we are the kind of people who learned from the past experience and don’t really trust others anymore.

The problem with investment is if they promise you with good profit it is too good to be true therefor they are scam, and if they don’t promise with anything too good they are not worth investing in, so that leaves trading the only safe option.
2218  Economy / Economics / Re: The best time to invest. on: April 06, 2017, 02:04:46 PM
Wait for the price to go down at 700$ before you invest, but the problem is bitcoin will never go back to that price again,so if you have the time to invest in bitcoin do it right now before its too late.
I think it will not happen make bitcoin price goes back to 700 dollar, that is why if you want to invest in bitcoin just do it now until the price are on 1130 dollar because it will increase more than of that current price and you would get great income on it.
It is possible that this will happen this year, the increasing demand and the effect of the halving are things that will continue affecting the price in the coming months. Even so, Bitcoin is still a risky investment, mainly because of the uncertainties that still exist about how the scaling issue will be resolved.
I think it is about how long are you planning on investing, if you are in it for the long term it is risky and you might end up with the same price that you have started with or maybe even less if things get really bad.

But if you are in it for the short term that defiantly bitcoin is the best investment the amount of money that you can make from buying at a low price and selling at the peak is very high.
2219  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: why people use dice bot? on: April 05, 2017, 07:27:52 PM
There are free ones if you do not pay for a bot. Seuintje was free if I remember correctly. Hell let alone free, it was open source, it was done with C# if I remember correctly. So use that if you don’t wanna pay.

But do not expect a bot to make you rich, I mean gambling is gambling, a bot can’t do anything a human can’t do, its basically doing what a human does but much faster, so if you are going to win anyway, you are winning quicker, if you are going to lose, than you lose faster, since the the term “house always wins on the long term” gets shorter term thanks to faster gambling, you end up losing. No need to put the blame on a computer program.
2220  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you save bitcoin for fun or for future purpose? on: April 05, 2017, 06:11:40 PM
I'm not saving it for fun. I do it because I need it. Also, I'm saving and investing it to achieve my future financial goals. I'm expecting to have a huge amount of bitcoin in the future because I put it in auto-reinvest whenever I received the interest on my investments.
You must be doing great. When bitcoin is having all the buying powers, I guess no one will be saving it for fun. Only in early days people would have saved it for fun by without knowing what will be the future of bitcoins.

We must save bitcoins now a days consciously because the future is just belongs to bitcoins as Japan government decided to legalize bitcoin payments and big number of merchants in Japan will be accepting it. Maybe Japan will be leading rest of world to adopt bitcoins.
