2281  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to teach someone about Bitcoin on: April 05, 2016, 03:24:12 PM
A cool thing to do is to tell about the advantages between banks and blockchain. About the bordless thing. Anything that could make the unknown (and sometime untrust) world close to the normal (ordinary) people. It's hard, but at least there are few books to help in this "mission".

Mate if they are not tech friendly then it will complicate them by teaching about blockchain, as they are very new to it so we need to keep it simple at the primary stage, if they find it simple then will surely try it.

i agree. in my experience a lot of people will stop listening if you start talking about technical stuff no matter what you are talking about (bitcoin or anything else) when it gets to technical stuff you will bore the hell out of them.
2282  Other / Off-topic / Re: How to motivate women to use Bitcoin? on: April 05, 2016, 03:20:56 PM
It will be nice if there will be more women indeed that is going to use Bitcoin, because how more people will use it how better it is for Bitcoin and that can be very nice for Bitcoin.
But first you have to promote it will so more people will get to know about it and that also more clothes stores or something will accept Bitcoin.

It will take time until there will be more people that is using Bitcoin.

there is no difference between men and women when it comes to using bitcoin. i promise you that there are a lot of women using bitcoin right now. i think it is more depending on what they think about bitcoin if they like it as a currency, and payment method then they will surely use it.
2283  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do you buy Bitcoins? on: April 05, 2016, 03:18:40 PM
By buying bitcoin, people are into investment. This is one of the major factor and reason why people buy.

Taking a risk to gain profit in the future.

yeah, i agree. the biggest reason that most of the people are buying bitcoin is that they want to make profit if the price went up like last time.

which is a pretty good opportunity if it happens again.
2284  Economy / Speculation / Re: When are you selling your bitcoins? on: April 05, 2016, 03:13:46 PM
i will only sell my bitcoin if i see a bubble.

otherwise i will hold all of my bitcoins in cold storage until bitcoin becomes famous enough that i can use it as simple as i use fiat.
2285  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will rise? on: April 05, 2016, 03:09:21 PM
Bitcoin will rise in the middle of this year as I can see the trend if it keep stable , it will be increase at the first and go down afterward.
Also rumor about halving affecting market with positive attitude so most people got optimist for bitcoin

the hype of the block halving this year has been the biggest hype i have seen for a while. and i think the closer we get to the actual halving the bigger the hype is going to get and the price will rise because of that even if it is slow rise.
2286  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The Art of Trading BTC to ALT Coins-Share your Experience for Noob on: April 05, 2016, 03:05:09 PM
i also use bittrex for trading altcoin and it is mostly because i used to trade on poloniex and since they changed their rules i switched my exchanger.
2287  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum v. Bitcoin - parity on: April 05, 2016, 02:59:51 PM

Who wants to publish their estimated date they think Ethereum will pass Bitcoin in 'market cap'?

I say: June 21, 2016

in Ethereum Vs Bitcoin one thing is important to me in order to speculate the price

available supply
EthereumBitcoin
78,000,000+15,000,000+
----------------------------
Maximum Coin limit
Not Clear21,000,000

you do the math

The number of supply does not matter. I remember one coin called 42, there are 42 coins in total. I do not see it any more.

lol
nice comparison my newbie friend with only 1 post.
42Coin has a 0.2BTC price but there is another important thing that you didn't mention the trade volume which is like 10 pathetic dollars.

2288  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Litecoin is what you want on: April 05, 2016, 02:29:55 PM
the only way i can see Litecoin rise is another Chinese incident like last time, they come and pump it so we can become happy and then dump it all in an hour.
2289  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you consider trading as gambling? on: April 03, 2016, 11:23:49 AM
Yes, trading is a form of gambling, especially if one is speculating on futures.  Any situation where one makes decisions that involve a risk, a reward, and a factor of probability it can be considered gambling.  In fact, when one evaluates their terms with an insurance company, they would have to concede that their insurance premiums are a disguised form of gambling also.

trading is only considered as a gambling if the trader has no idea what he is doing and just buys randomly and sells randomly whenever his gut tells him to do so.
but you can actually do some analysis, research and speculate the market knowing all that information so it is not a shot in the dark
2290  Economy / Speculation / Re: What if we sit at $310-$340 for 2 more years? on: April 03, 2016, 11:19:33 AM
If the price will be at $310-$340 for 2 more years then i have a feeling that the transaction fee will be increased because the mining will not be as much profitable as it is now or it was before.

the price range has changed a lot from the time when this topic was started back in end of 2015
and it seems this level ($420) is stable enough to stay and not go any lower. and also the miners are mining ever so stronger and without any complains about the fees+rewards.
2291  Economy / Speculation / Re: Getting closer to Halving but .. no increase ? on: April 03, 2016, 11:13:35 AM
Block size debate will conviently be resolved around the block halving so whales can accumulate more and keep the price low, once resolved the price will shoot up, probably see $3500 by 2017

i agree with this.
it sounds more realistic because so far i feel like the block halving debate has caused a lot of trouble for bitcoin and that is why the price is stuck here. that and the fact that whales are accumulating for the moon.

so solving it would be a good launching pad for the moon.
2292  Economy / Economics / Re: I'm not gonna sell any coin. on: April 03, 2016, 11:10:27 AM
I have been collecting coins for more than four years now. Until 2015, I refrained from selling any of my coins. Even when BTC touched the $1,000 mark, I held on to my coins. That was a very very bad decision. I lost my job in 2014, and for around 6 months I didn't had a revenue source. I sold 80% of my coins in 2015, at average prices of $225 to $235. 

wow, that is indeed a very bad decision, i am sorry to hear that.

i have never though anybody could hold bitcoin for this long from $1000 to $200 (~$800 difference) is a long way to go. i would have sold my coins long before than on the way back down probably around $600.
but for the good or bad i have entered bitcoin at $400 (>a year ago)
2293  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum pump and dump? on: April 03, 2016, 11:06:42 AM
There is a gulf between an outright scam; and promises of a future that may never be.

Exactly. The same could be said for BTC, weren't we supposed to be at $10,000 coin now or something? Must be a scam....

if we are to make decisions based on everything we read on the internet written by random people then there would be chaos in the market.

there is a lot of difference between promise of success and real world application from an altcoin dev and a random speculation of 10K price/
2294  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Litecoin will see 10$ and above 2016 on: April 03, 2016, 11:03:39 AM
Stability can be good. I remember when everyone was complaining Bitcoin would never go anywhere because it wasn't stable enough to be used as a currency. Well now both BTC and LTC have been fairly stable and now all of a sudden they are dead...

haha, good points. although people saying stability is good and those who call it dead and want volatility are two different groups of people

the traders and those who are just interested in fiat, want to to get in and get out quickly and take the cash and run. so they don't care what bitcoin or any altcoin is all about and what can be done with them.

the rest want stability for more adoption and ease of mind that your money is safe and your buying power don't change with volatile price each day.
2295  Economy / Services / Re: Offer worth minimum of $0.3 worth of BTC on: April 03, 2016, 10:58:24 AM

please send me all the links and i will sign up ASAP and report back after completion of each then send me the payments only once.
2296  Economy / Economics / Re: How too get rich on: April 01, 2016, 01:49:02 PM
in order to get rich i think you have to get lucky!
i am not talking about getting lucky in gambling and winning the lottery (although it is one way to do it) but i mean you have to get lucky in life and hit the life's jackpot, like your businesses blooming and making you more money or finding and investment that pays off soon with a lot of money, etc.
2297  Other / Meta / Re: Why all the "uᴉoɔʇᴉq" words are up-side-down? on: April 01, 2016, 01:44:04 PM
the Athereum was for sure the most confusing for me, i though a new altcoin was released and pumped and i missed it Cheesy
2298  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price Increase Incoming. on: April 01, 2016, 01:40:53 PM
There will be a price increase soon or later, its just a matter of time before it happens, and maybe it will even happen this year but this is not predict right now.
The halving will maybe help us with this but this is also still the question because overall the bitcoin itself is not even to predict.
Overall I hope it will, there is a already a good sign and that is that the bitcoin is growing.

i think the halving alone can not move this market now.

some new force is needed to increase the bitcoin price this time. it has been steady above $400 for so long. the force can be block size increase.
2299  Other / Archival / Re: $1000 by 1q 2016? on: April 01, 2016, 01:35:46 PM
Q1 passes and price is good and stable let predict this 1000 for some other month

yeah, that was disappointing for those of us waiting to see the price rise in the first quarter of this year.
now my next target us summer!
