Your best bet is to buy bitcoin and wait a year. Surely then, your money will almost double.
I think not necessarily bitcoin prices could rise two-fold within one year. bitcoin is very likely that the price may fall from the previous year. hold within one year is not necessarily beneficial to you. investing in bitcoin is high-risk so much better off investing the amount can you tolerate
It is hard to trust that big amount in investing in bitcoin when you have a target to double it in a short span of time, we do not know the outcome of our investment as we do not see the future, the best way to do is just to make a business which you can make use of your passion, at least you can guarantee that you will double your money if you manage your business well.
2402  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your gambling strategy on: August 30, 2016, 04:49:56 AM
What do you think is better - gambling on smallest bets on games with jackpots or just gambling high rolls? Playing marginal hi lo - odd 2 with 100% or odd 3 with 100%? Slots or cards? I like to gamble, share with me your strategies, wining or losing...
There is no better strategy in gambling, just need luck or something positive think and as the others say if you're still green then stop now and withdraw it but if you're in red line the best option is don't greed and stop for now then play later.
you are right, actually there are no good strategies on it at all and i think that it will just make you lose money

I agree with you that there is no good strategy at all even if you are going to use martingale strategy that is not going to work out.

What you need to have is the luckiness, because even you are not going to have a good strategy as long as you are luck by the time you are going to gamble.

No one can stop your winning streak and take the advantage on it.
Martingale is good in sports gambling, you need to bet on the heavy favorites all the time as there is no way they will not cover until the end of the season, I use to do that in NBA sports gambling where I bet on the warriors to cover every game and that is profitable for me.
2403  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: August 30, 2016, 04:46:26 AM
gambling is wrong there is no any doubt. in gambling people loose their money and they will waste their time also. and when they get addicted to gambling the situation get even more worst. better to don't go near gambling if you want to live your life with peace.
Because you lose your money in gambling? I would not call it wrong because in my experience I have so much fun gambling. The fact that we can entertain ourselves even with a little amount of money that is already the benefits we can get in gambling.
2404  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: August 30, 2016, 03:23:42 AM
For me there will be a time that i will quit my job and go full bitcoin i think when i retired on my job.But this time i think no i will not quit my job and go full time bitcoin.Full time onbitcoin can be a lose of you dont know how it works
So how old are you now? If you will retire in your day job you can do full time in bitcoin and you can use your retirement pay to use as capital in bitcoin, that would be awesome if you can make more money than in your day job today.
2405  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is their any safe methods to gamble? on: August 30, 2016, 03:05:20 AM
The best and safest method that you can do while gambling is to have rules for yourself.  Gamble only with the money that you can afford to lose and do not chase your losses, that only leads to more gambling and eventually losing. Some people say in dice game bet small and earn big.


That is what you called setting up your own limitation as you gamble so that you are going to minimize losing. There is really no way to become safe as you gamble the only thing is that you can minimize it. And if you are going to do that you have higher chance that you are going to lose big amount with it.
Minimizing our loses if more possible that not losing at all, once we enter in gambling it is expected that we lose already because of the house edge, but still to be safe we can get as much as entertain as we want but we only lose a little amount, that is the safest thing to happen for me if you know your goal and you know how to control yourself in gambling.
2406  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: August 30, 2016, 02:54:27 AM
Last days I was thinking of the same question, and I think that investing will be more profitable than only putting it in the bank.

We all know that if you are going to invest you have the chance to get profit. But if we are going to relate it with bitcoin both of it are useful. If you are going to save or hold your bitcoin, you have the chance to get some profit too. As the price of bitcoin is going to increase then your profit is going to increase too, but it is risky.
Of course, and you also have a chance to lose your money, that is both possible in investing because it is like a gambling when we have no control of what will happen. If we invest, we need to bear in mind that we only put the amount we can afford to lose so we can still continue our life if the outcome does not favor us.
2407  Economy / Economics / Re: Should I believe in Bitcoin ? on: August 30, 2016, 02:50:29 AM
Should I believe in Bitcoin ?
I have 10k $ and maybe going to buy  , but I doubt the further development of Bitcoin and I'm afraid to lose money! Can you convince me or dissuaded from buying?
Ofcourse you should believe in bitcoin because bitcoin can grow your money that easily if you are going to deposit your 10 thousand dollar in to your bitcoin wallet theres a chance that the bitcoin are going to increase so that you can earn profit instantly and if you are going to trade your bitcoin into another currency Cheesy
The reality is, there is a chance to increase while there is also a chance to decrease, what matters now is we need to believe in bitcoin so we will be able to invest an amount that is decent enough to give us profit once the value of bitcoin will appreciate. Since we are risking our money, we will only believe and appreciate bitcoin when it will give us profit.
2408  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: People hate Bitcoins? on: August 30, 2016, 02:45:28 AM
probably the mass media doesn't take a good picture of bitcoin or people that using it...
anonymous, "terrorist" , drug dealer, and so even (scammer etc etc)
so people (ignorant!) doesn't have a good opinion about it !
Yes this is the one reason why people don't know about the bitcoin because it is not in the news or media doesn't care about the bitcoin people uses bitcoin because they want to stay anonymous so they choose use bitcoin as a currency to do some activities hoping that people who has interest on bitcoin are going to search for it
People who knows bitcoin are those who are constantly using internet because we have massive advertisement in the internet, in the media there is no such advertisement because it is anonymous and they do not want to invite people to adopt due to no assurance it will benefits the people with some legality issues.
2409  Other / Off-topic / Re: 2017 Year of the Bitcoin on: August 30, 2016, 02:42:06 AM
its going to be huge, believe me bitcoin is going to grow a lot really fast, maybe to a new all time high
Because your neighbor Fred said so? Every year is year of the bitcoin... despite after 2013 where we had ATH (artificially pumped, but still ATH) nothing really changes.
Adoptions is almost not existent, codification and creation of bitcoin laws is not existent, people argue what bitcoin really is... Do you think that these problems will be solved soon?
What do you mean adoption is almost not existent, we are increasing in numbers right now and more people are adopting bitcoin as the more it exist the more it becomes popular, the price is the living evidence that adoption is real.
2410  Other / Off-topic / Re: Earning a living with bitcoin? on: August 30, 2016, 02:30:53 AM
I am honest, I only earnig a living with bitcoin
I started to earning bitcoin a few years ago and I'm grateful I can buy something and live with bitcoin.

Soo you are a early adopter or had or has several bitcoin that you had exchanged into fiat, and now just living from those profit you made in the past, kindly share those with us. I get some income all months but nothing enought to make a living from it, i hope the projects im working will allow me to earn a decent ammount.
It is hard when you do not have a capital to invest dude, as a mere worker we are only dependent with our salary in day job and that makes us secure so we cannot invest that amount as no assurance we will make a profit. In addition, if you want to earn a living with bitcoin you have to do a high paying job online.
2411  Other / Off-topic / Re: Bank or Bitcoin Wallet? on: August 30, 2016, 02:12:21 AM
I would put half in the bank and half in Bitcoin.
That is better, knowing your plan let me conclude that you trust bitcoin. It is very rare to see people trusting half of their assets in bitcoin and we know how risky doing that since anytime our money will be lost due to some hacking but I commend you doing that as you will also be rewarded for your faith.
2412  Economy / Economics / Re: How would you double $100,000 safely? on: August 30, 2016, 02:07:39 AM
Almost no one can double that huge amount safely, using legitimate methods and in a short period of time. But if you really want to double that money, my suggestion is for you to create your own business.
Much safer, at least you can ensure that the outcome is based on your performance. Having that amount of money for investment is very risky if you will trust it to others just do your own business with your passion so you will effectively grow your investment.
2413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Off-Season on: August 30, 2016, 01:53:34 AM
yes mate it will be as expected that in west possible to see again the warriors and san antonio as i guess coach pop already made the team as a solid and for the time period of their break off season they might include pau and his position to this team while gsw might also conditioning durant to his position from their line up.
Theres a big possibility that they would face each other in west finals and that is very entertaining to watch if ever. I see Durant is very thirsty in getting a ring.
That is probable to happen because thunder is not the threat anymore for the spurs, they will make it easy to reach in the west finals and Spurs will face the warriors, I am sure with that and that is very fun to watch though, I hope spurs will beat the warriors this time.
2414  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it a good long term investment to buy 1 BTC today? on: August 30, 2016, 01:33:37 AM
From my point of view, I would say medium safety, as bitcoin is still in the early adoption stages. This may be a good sign, a lot can happen to boost the value of the currency in the times to come.

i think investment 1 bitcoin for long term is very safe, the each halving will make bitcoin more strong, then im sure in future 1bitcoin can rise to $1000 again, and now the price of bitcoin only $5xx
but to me investing one bitcoin for a long time is not a good investment, if you really going for long term investment then you should invest some good amount of money so as to buy some good amount of bitcoin for long term investment.
This also depends on the market situation at the time that you want to invest. I believe we are now going through the so called all time low, then I believe it is a good time.

Yes you are right with it, the price of bitcoin now is at low state. So, if you want to buy bitcoin then you must take the opportunity today and you must buy so that when the price is going to increase you are going to get a profit. And that is going to be another time to buy depending on what is your strategy with buying and selling.
I think some people are afraid of the current price because they think that bitcoin will not recover anymore, we have seen a great increase for this year alone and that is a big achievement already so maybe they are thinking that the price will not increase anymore.
2415  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you can control your self when playing gambling? on: August 29, 2016, 12:55:57 PM
I'm a person that can't control my self when i playing gambling, especially on sports betting. Because everytime i lose, i will doubling my bet until my bet is win and it's always make me busted.
I have experience that many times in sports betting but I like sports betting because the gap of results is not that fast so for some reason we can lessen our aggressiveness in gambling by doing sports betting, when you have a problem with controlling our self we will not achieve success in gambling so we keep losing and will only enjoy temporary victory.
2416  Economy / Economics / Re: What percentage of people on Earth will own Bitcoin by 2020 on: August 29, 2016, 12:49:08 PM
by that year 2020 my guess was  only 5% because the population of the world is so huge and  as of now only a little percentage or partition of  it  maybe 1% or less than are people who knew bitcoin. Somehow it would be added up in upcoming years since bitcoin is becoming popular.
but to me 10 to 20 percent of people will be using bitcoin, they will have both the options, they will use fiat currency as well as bitcoin, in present time we can see that all most in all countries of the world people are using bitcoin so i am hopeful that this percentage will increase so much in next few years, therefore i can expect that 10 to 20 percent people will be using bitcoin .
10 to 20%? Do you have an idea what is the total number of people who are using bitcoin now? I think that is too unrealistic, we cannot achieve that number of adopters in a short period of time and thinking that 2020 is just 4 years from now.
2417  Economy / Services / Re: Post on social media networks for 0.0002btc+ Easy money (Under 20 seconds!) on: August 29, 2016, 12:44:54 PM
That is too low dude, maybe you can offer like 0.0015 per post, that would be a competitive amount of money for doing this very hard job of yours. I do not think you could attract people to work for you with that amount.
2418  Economy / Economics / Re: Best way to manage money? on: August 29, 2016, 12:41:17 PM
this is my step how to manage my money :
-listing all source where you get the money
-listing what your needs in 1month
-prepare some budget for unforeseen circumstances
-saving some for future sudden need
-invest some for growing your money


That is a very detailed listings, I am sure it could help someone who wants to save and to effectively manage his finances, actually that was easy but the problem for every individual now is, do they have the discipline to consistently follow all that is listed above.
2419  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you Rich from Gambling? on: August 29, 2016, 12:26:55 PM
if you want gamble to can rich i think is very dificult
gamble only happy fun and hope win can mucth money
gambling not every placed bet can win and to rich


You are right with it that it is very hard to become rich with gambling and there is going to be a hard way in gambling if you are going to depend on it.

Because mostly gamblers are just going to lose money from it, but I know that there are some few that became rich by gambling.

The only personalities that I can think that can be rich with gambling are the gambling site owners.
At least we should try so we can prove it by ourselves. If you are afraid to try you will never know if you have the skills to be rich in gambling or not. We can be rich because it is possible and who knows if we are one of the gifted people who can be rich in gambling.
2420  Economy / Economics / Re: Loans too risky? on: August 29, 2016, 12:22:49 PM
yeah it might be really risky thats why i never give any loans or take it
I think the risk will always be there if you make an investment or trying to grow your bitcoin. example of borrowing money. there will always be a risk that they will not pay it. therefore you must be smart in selecting the right person who will give you a loan?



What kind of smartness is required to take the loan? I didn't understand the meaning of smartness in your post. Most of the lender will expect some % of profit in public. Otherwise, you may not get the loan and also you must provide a valid collateral to get a loan.

To give loans, if you lend money with proper collateral, then I don't see any issue in lending money. But don't collateral which you can't liquidate easily for cash.
You will only use your smartness if you are a borrower who is planning to scam the lender. It is the lender who should be smart at all times because it is his money after all who are at risk, as a lender we are a profit oriented and we cannot allowed ourselves to lose even a single centavo.
