2381  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: is it possible to hack your bitcoin from your wallet? on: November 05, 2016, 04:56:21 AM
I think i never heard any news regarding an account being hacked, so the security of bitcoin wallet is still solid, the one that being hacked usually it's from phising site and suspicious link
And hopefully it will never being able to be hacked so we don't have to worry about our account

Most of the time yes the house always wins. But sometimes whales beats the house because they have lots of bankroll to use for recover. For me and others who have limited bankroll, The house will always win against us unless you know when to stop when you win something. Casino are not created to give money but instead casino are created to get money from people who loves to gamble.
House is not always win but most of the time the house will win,but when the player win at gamble they don't exposed it,  but it is true that casino and gambling site is the place for fun not for looking profit because the house got better odds in winning

It's fantastic,  i would like to see more and more company accepting bitcoin, maybe next year some country can implemented subway and monorail payment using bitcoin and i can sense that companies already feel the bitcoin potential, there are so many company that start to accept bitcoin
2384  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Difference between Bitcoin and real money? on: November 04, 2016, 06:06:55 AM
I've discovered Bitcoin few days ago, but I am skeptical about few things, why would I invest money in Bitcoins at the end of the day,why would I convert money into Bitcoins?

If I want to buy stocks or invest money I can easily invest with real $. Why would I convert my $ to bitcoins?
If I want to gamble , I can simply gamble on websites that require $ as currency, why would I convert it to bitcoins?
What's the difference between Bitcoins and dolars? What does bitcoin bring to the table that real $ don't, less taxes, more income?

We used bitcoin because we want free from centralized system, you want to invest in stock using your fiat is fine but does your stock is better than bitcoin, in this year bitcoin price already rise almost 100%, you can used fiat to gamble but you need identification to deposit and withdraw, bitcoin doesnt need any of those, the difference between dollar and bitcoin is nobody controlling while dollar is control by government
2385  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Investing in Gambling Sites on: November 04, 2016, 04:32:23 AM
The biggest risk is a casino running away with your coins, that is why is recommended to invest in several different casinos instead of investing just in one, the other risk is that the earnings can fluctuate wildly since there’s the possibility of a big whale winning big and you could be underwater for months.
There is always a risk in investment, that is why before you try to invest you need to find all the information, investing in casino seems quite promising but you can't expect you will always gain profit, sometimes you can lose your money, and i prefer to invest in casino rather in other investment
2386  Economy / Economics / Re: WILL BITCOIN BE USED BY ALMOST EVERYONE IN 2022? on: November 04, 2016, 02:56:22 AM
If I must be honest, I do not think that the bitcoin will be used by everyone in 2022, we cannot also not predict this either but its just something that I do not see happening these days.
The bitcoin has a great future a head of course but I do not think that other currency's will me less more used.
I think everyone already knew that it would be difficult for bitcoin users to be able to have everyone in the world, it is very improbable, even fiat takes a long time to be used by everyone, hundreds of years ago

If the bitcoin is used by 10% of the world population, we can regard that as one of the top 5 currency.

You have the point, but I don't think that 10% of the world's population will be able to use bitcoin in 2022. But we can't say what is going to happen exactly, it is still going to depend on how the people will able to see the bitcoins benefits and its price will able to encourage and convince people from using it.
Yes it is, but predicting from the bitcoin user growth and bitcoin potential, i think it is possible to generate 10% of world population to use bitcoin, and it is our duty to keep on introducing bitcoin to new user, just hope people will not use bitcoin for a bad and illegal things
2387  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is a revolutionary currency but a fairly inefficient payment network on: November 04, 2016, 01:20:42 AM
Well i am quite agree with op, bitcoin is a pioneer to the new era of digital currency, but in this early stage we still have some problem to handle, the one that still become major problem is the transaction speed, this is the one that's make some local store doubt to adapt bitcoin
2388  Economy / Economics / Re: Tell me your predictions about Bitcoin on: November 03, 2016, 09:44:20 AM
Two months ago, I was very skeptical about the price even reaching $650 by end of October. Now we are at over $700. Guess my prediction would be a miss again if I say that the bitcoin price will be at $800 by the end of the year. But overall, this has been a pretty good year when it comes to the price increase. We have seen it surge, plummet, idle and now back to breaking new monthly highs.
I also feel the same, i don't what is the trigger that makes the price keep on raising but it sure motivate us to earn more coin, and hopefully bitcoin keep on rising and my prediction on december the price will pass 800$ and next year it will be 1000$
2389  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What game do you prefer? on: November 03, 2016, 05:20:53 AM

2390  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do people around you think about Bitcoin ? on: November 03, 2016, 04:05:29 AM
People around me thinks that bitcoin is a waste of time. Some of my friends thinks that this is a pyramid scheme or something like that. They don't even want to try it for the first time. They also think that bitcoin money is a scam.
The first time i try to introduce to bitcoin, they said bitcoin is mlm, i am confused, then after a brief explanantion they finally understood that bitcoin is a currency almost same like money, and most of the person that knew bitcoin said it makes their transaction so easy
2391  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Bank??? on: November 03, 2016, 01:18:38 AM
Do we really require a bank for bitcoins as we are already well secured with wallet systems. The wallet system is so comfortable and adequate. It reduces our time and energy. We do not require to reach a place or someone for any transactions. All are inbuilt in wallets. 

Internet banking is as convenient as the wallets you mention. Smiley
If you use a web wallet, then banks can be considered much safer as well.

I am not convinced with the internet banking here in my country, because many banks was breached of hackers easily as their customers are complaining that their account was hacked and from with a maintaining balance it became zero balance as the clients checked it. So I am not really convinced with the security of internet banking and if they will adopt bitcoins, then I will still doubt them.
Where is your country? if a bank is easily breached by the hacker it's mean the bank security is not strong enough, and usually things like this will be a national issue and become the government concern, because there are a lot of transaction using internet banking, but i think it will be different if you are using bitcoin because up until now there is still no report regarding hacking from the system
2392  Economy / Economics / Re: The dream of getting rich with bitcoins on: November 02, 2016, 07:45:10 AM
It's a dream to be able to get rich with bitcoin and i think it is possible, judging from the first time i joined bitcoin the price still 400$ now already reach 750$, and from my speculation it will be getting higher, just hope nothing bad going to happen to bitcoin
2393  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you budget gambler? on: November 02, 2016, 03:54:39 AM
I dont really save up some  money   for  playing gambling  on the vacant time or  on weekend  i just  usually get directly from  my pocket and  this  is somehow a disadvantage for me  because  i  end  up   on  lossing all  of  my money on that particular day. Its better  to  really put some  limits.
that's the first thing that you should know mate placing your limits will allow you to control your possible loses
make sure also to know whether you play in the long run or its just for fun and you don't really care if you win
or not because if you play for money you should place your target amount then stop after hitting it.

Well, I believe that it should be every gambler's first rule: NEVER gamble with money you can't afford to loose and don't gamble if you can't control yourself.
Sadly, there are many people who don't follow this rule and it usually ends up badly. And that's also why, so many people think that it is dangerous to gamble. It is similar to alcohol. As long as you are responsible it's okay.
It is so true, limiting your bet is called smart gambling and it should be implemented for every gambling, by limiting your bet you are saving yourself from bankruptcy, so gamble with responsible, dont gamble with the amount that you can't afford to lose
2394  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: November 02, 2016, 02:28:15 AM
The best way to stop gambling is to being honest with yourself about the reasons of why you are gambling, fi you are and you accept the truth then you will be able to overcome your gambling addiction, is not easy but nothing in live is.
It is true, if you want to be healed in every addiction the first step is you need to accept the fact that you are addicted and you want it to change, then slowly change your gambling habit, the most influence thing is the environment, so you need to stop hanging around with your friend that had gambling habit and stay away from activity that can remind you of gambling
2395  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to explain bitcoin to teenagers or children on: November 02, 2016, 01:17:45 AM
To be honest i don't really know how to explain it to children, maybe open 1 wallet for them is the fastest way for them to learn, because in order to introduce bitcoin they need to understand banking system, but if explain to a teenager will be easier just say its digital money like the money that appear in your bank account and the bank is your wallet, and bitcoin is like another country currency so in order to change it into fiat you need to go to local exchanger
2396  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Trust in altcoin and cryptocurrencies on: November 01, 2016, 07:53:25 AM
New coin and alt coin really hard to get trust and i kind of confused with so many alt coin being created, i dont know which one should i used and which one i should invest and alt coin reputation become worse when a lot of coin developer try to scam, so it need more time for alt coin to be trusted
2397  Economy / Economics / Re: What will be our new world currency? on: November 01, 2016, 05:42:20 AM
I really hope that bitcoin will be the answer, it will be cool if in the future we will adopt digital currency, unfortunately there is still so many obstacle to achieve that, i think dollar will still become world currency the most make sense currency to replace dollar will be yuan, because china economic growth is really good
2398  Other / Off-topic / Re: For how many people you introduced the Bitcoin? on: November 01, 2016, 04:03:05 AM
I tried to introduce bitcoin to my friends but their response is not too good, they only active for a while and then they forgot about it, i only succeed introduce my family into bitcoin, now my sister and my brother is active in bitcoin
2399  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin trusted to put your real money on: November 01, 2016, 02:42:11 AM
Bitcoin is just a currency. It will not do anything to convince you to trust it. The whole system/network of bitcoin is decentralized so there's no scam that will happen when you invest in it. No one will take away your funds since you're the only owner of it. No one's above you. The only way your money will get stolen is if you let a hacker get into your system.
Up until now i still haven't heard any leaking account from bitcoin wallet, so i think the security from bitcoin wallet is quite strong how ever alway take precautious, when you got scammed in bank you can track but if you got scammed in bitcoin then it is gone, so i will say i trust 60% my money to be converted to bitcoin
2400  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where to Invest BTC? on: November 01, 2016, 01:07:53 AM
Stay away from most ICOs, only a few make profit. I mean there is a decent amount of ICOs that end up lower than the price they sell for at the actual ICO phase, and there are a lof ot swings in the exchanges that you can benefit from and buy at a lower prize before a big pump. Of course some ICOs actually end up being a great deal.. you never know.
Actually ico is one of the profitable investment if you're lucky, the problem is it is too risky, most of the ico will fail and end up become valueless, so if you are newbie and you are lazy with updated news then ico is definitely not for you, and before you try to invest in ico make sure you check all things properly, there were a lot of scam coin developer
