2561  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin or gold? on: July 31, 2017, 11:51:11 AM
I would probably go 60% bitcoin 40% gold.   I think bitcoin definitely has more potential upside to go to astronomical prices, but gold will always remain as a valuable store of money.  Coincidentally, I think a lot of people have transitioned into investing into precious metals after investing in bitcoin, and vice versa.   I for one, was not invested in gold before bitcoin (but I have other investments).   I am definitely now going to purchase and hold some gold and silver bars.
I agree, maybe I will also do the same thing. but it may be greater to the gold because of the bitcoin on bitcoin folding many times more profitable while the gold will get a fixed price from year to year. and to invest myself I prefer a bitcoin can be used as a long term investment. Gold will be stored valuables at home which is temporary only.

I also agree. Grin  But maybe you mean that gold will be stored only at home is not the thing because you could buy stocks or buy a share of gold in market not actually having the real gold as jewelry.  But of course jewelry are assets and investment so it would also gives you a profit.  Though you will really make an effort to buy some gold unlike bitcoin wherein you could actually only earn and then invest it.  You could buy gold through the earnings you made through bitcoin.  Anyways I would also go for the investing of bitcoin and gold as these two are real investment.

Yes, bitcoin reduces unemployment because bitcoin has a potential and has a value . It gives opportunity to the people invest and earn money. It requires patience and spend more time to earn bitcoin.  More people are already invested in bitcoin and helps to earn extra money for their needs. I Bitcoin is a good way to earn money and helps people can work. I think right now many people have already invested in bitcoin and they have already have worked.

I may say that it does not reduces unemployment because the one who decides if a person is employed or not is the census or the statistics office.  They are the one who declares if you have a job or not.  So basically if someone asked you what is your job and you will say that you are working online, most presumably they will put you as unemployed category.  But in reality considering the employed was earning money is just the same when you are doing money through bitcoins.  So technically yes, it helps reduced unemployment in the sense of having and still earning money.
2563  Economy / Economics / Re: bitcoin benefit of saving for a long time? on: July 31, 2017, 11:42:35 AM
Of course it got benefit, most of the people store bitcoin as investment and because there are so many scammed investment, it is better just put your coin in your wallet and keep it safe and because bitcoin price is keep on rising so saving it for a long time is going to bring big profit for the holder
It's always better to store your bitcoins in a wallet than investing them in scams. The best thing about bitcoin is just storing it for a long time is a sort of investment and we have seen it and some of us might even have experienced it in the past when bitcoin was only $400 or so and raised up to $2800 so that's why people hold and keep storing their bitcoins and that's how people make profit and have made already in the past.

Certainly agreed on this.  It has always been safer to store our bitcoins in our wallet and even doing transactions with bitcoin because of its unique bitcoin address.  I was scammed before and I would never do that again considering the feeling I felt when I was scammed.  It is like losing your favorite thing and was stolen by people who have no hearts at all.  I bought that bitcoin and someone just stole it from me.  Even if you will put only your bitcoins on your wallet it will really grow everytime the price of bitcoin will rise.
2564  Economy / Economics / Re: bitcoin provide income on line? on: July 31, 2017, 11:39:11 AM
Yes I agree bitcoin provides an extra income online and one can earn some money by joining signature campaigns here but that doesn't mean one can be dependent on it. If one has some skills or services to offer then one can earn good money not only in the form of bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency but dollars too so basically it's totally up to what one has to offer to this world if it's useful and has a value then everybody will be interested in paying for it otherwise bitcoin is not like a magic which can bring one a luxurious or comfortable life easily.

Anyone has to work hard and give some effort to earn online.  There were jobs on line where you can opt to be paid with bitcoins so if you matched their requirements and skills they are looking for then you can go and earn some more bitcoins.  Like what you said, joining signature campaigns are good actually it is less stressful and more easy and less risk compared to trading and investing.  Though, trading and investing will surely give you more income than just by simply doing signature campaign.
2565  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is it too late to buy bitcoin? on: July 31, 2017, 06:01:21 AM
It is never too late to buy bitcoin,the price keeps increasing and with August 1 being tomorrow,we will know its fate.Even if the price falls after tomorrow its will definitely increase. I have a feeling the price of bitcoin would reach 50k one day so buying bitcoin now "will" be of profit to you in the future. let's wait and see what August 1 brings though

Yes I agree there is no time for buying bitcoin as long as you have money to buy and invest it.  But of course it is advantage if you buy bitcoin or own bitcoins before it become a huge success.  Bitcoin as you said its price continue to goes up thus, buying or owning one would be a good investment.  Maybe if you have money then you can start buying now.  I wish I could buy some after the split of bitcoins for I know that bitcoin is a good investment.
2566  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How did you first hear about bitcoin? on: July 31, 2017, 05:09:43 AM
First, I am still confused with bitcoin but after I learned more about it bitcoin can help my life.
I am very happy with it. Until sometimes I forget the time for tradding Grin

We are always been confused at the beginning what bitcoin is for or where it began.  That brought me to delay my use of bitcoin since I do not trust it and was confused about it.  Then when I saw that many people are using it maybe it is time to at least try it.  I was scammed at my first try to invest and since then I do not invest anymore.  I heard then that the site I invested with was really a scam since then I was not doing any investing.  I am more of signature campaign.
2567  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [BREAKING NEWS]: Satoshi Nakamoto Is Dead!!! on: July 31, 2017, 03:43:42 AM
If Satoshi Nakamoto is dead the bitcoin will continue to spread, there is no effect in bitcoin and it will continue to grow. I think the price is become stable and profitable. Even if he dead the people will increase to invest in bitcoin and it become popular all over the country. There is no change to the bitcoin will continue to spread and it in demand to the people. We should not worry and continue believing in bitcoin.
Satoshi does not even revealed hs self ,so we don't know if that news were legit, no matter what his invention will still continue and still many adapts it, thanks to him for making such wonderful masterpiece that benefited us all.

It is true so there is no way we could know that he was dead or not because we do not even know if he really exist.  Whether he exist or not or dead or alive, the thing is his legacy will continue as he is such a brilliant man who gives everyone an opportunity to earn.  His creation was so wonderful that everyone can earn as long as they have access to computers.  We may not know him or if his name is real but until Bitcoin is around Satoshi exist and alive.
2568  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How many people are asking you about Bitcoin now? on: July 31, 2017, 03:33:55 AM
I've been talking about Bitcoin to family, friends and random people for years and nobody seemed to mind when BTC was under $1000. But now that Bitcoin has reached $2000, people are starting to realize that owning 1 BTC is beginning to be out of reach for the average person.

I've had more people ask me about Bitcoin lately and wanted help buying Bitcoins. What about you?

They're just asking me where did I get my income and my answer to them is from signature campaign that being paid by bitcoin currency. But I think nobody is asking me about bitcoin so far. I think the reason why they not asking about bitcoin is they didn't know it yet.

They asked me the same questions whenever my mother asked me some money and I have money to always give.  They were amazed and when told them about bitcoin they were skeptic to it.  They were afraid to try as they think it was a scam.  No one asked me about bitcoin aside from my love ones.  Maybe bitcoin is not yet that popular here in our country. 
2569  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if, we advertise bitcoin on T.V.? on: July 31, 2017, 03:22:25 AM
This idea would be great for those who want to make a real investment in Bitcoin but it will be a threat to governments, especially banks. I think the banks will definitely link up with the media so they limit the good news about Bitcoin

I do not think so that it would be a threat to the government and the banks.  Actually banks here in our country supports bitcoin because whenever I will buy bitcoins it is either I will give the payment at the convenience store, cash remittance, or banks.  Actually almost all banks here can be used to buy bitcoins.  As to government it would be good because they will earn more to it.  They will have another way to earn especially if bitcoins will be used by many people.
2570  Other / Politics & Society / Re: A GANG of women kidnapped a man and raped him for three days on: July 30, 2017, 02:43:08 PM
that is a lucky dude, just hope they provided him some good nutritious food and viagra pills so he could better perform, i mean for they own good right xD

WTF? Dude, this is no joke. If some men were raping a woman, would you say the same? Rape is rape, irrespective of the gender. It will have an irreversible and permanent effect on the mental and physical health of the victim.

I agree as long as that person do not like ehat he or she being done to him or her or without consent or permission then it is a crime.  The story is not that usual story of rape as the victim here is a guy.  And it is not just he was raoed but raped by a gang of women.  Sad that this kind of story happened to this man being kidnapped and raped for three days.
2571  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Negative effects of technology on: July 30, 2017, 02:25:48 PM
Technology does not have a negative impact on its users. But the users themselves who make it so negative impact. His example, a parent who is negligent to his or her child who is using technology causes his child to visit pornographic websites and other violent videos.
Technology has a built in good and bad effects in collaboration to its usage ,It is not always a parents consent because accept it or not Technology is a part of our new modern days and it will be more technologies that will be suppose to created .Day by day there are new inventions not only in technology but also in drugs and medicines .So we canno't blame the parents.

Yes technology is always updating and there were new inventions almost everyday.  We cannot deny the big help or influence of our parents because in the first place who are the capable of buying these new inventions?  It is our parents right.  They are the one who have the ability to give their children gadgets so we can partly blame them.  Actually can blame them. 
2572  Other / Politics & Society / Re: How to be contented on what you have? on: July 30, 2017, 01:45:26 PM
It is not a problem for me actually.  I easily got contentednon things I already have.  I do not understand people who continuously buy the same things like for example keep on upgrading their phones.  Some who buy watch but already have a dozens of it.  I easily appreciate things that I have maybe that is what I should br thankful for from my father who taught us to be contentedbon what we have.  As a child we livenon a simple life and appreciates everything we have.
2573  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Anxiety and Depression on: July 30, 2017, 01:29:11 PM
Yeah, early adulthood is the age depression most commonly occures. It's at that age that you think of the future, you get rejected, you develop anxiety and as those feelings are new to you you are more vulnerable to it. My belief is that every human has some form of depression and for a different reason, some can manage it, some are able to bury it with other things and some just live with it. There is a small percentage of people that will have a lethal or life threatening form of depression.

Those who falls into too much depression do not have someone to trust to.  They tend to keep their secrets or problems all by themselves.  Usually those people came up from broken family or no one he could share what he is feeling.  You are correct we have different forms of depression and sometimes it is really hard to cope.  But everything will fall into proper places.
2574  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Money 💰💰💰 on: July 30, 2017, 12:45:48 PM
How do they say it? Money makes the world go around.

Just like, when money speaks everyone listens.  Money is the answer to all the problems as someone said it.  Though best things in life are free, still everything is ought to be bought by money.  Money makes us happy.  It can make our family and loved ones to live a comfortable life.  It is what our lives needed in these life where nothing is free.
2575  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why do people pray? on: July 30, 2017, 12:11:07 PM
In my opinion, praying is just another way to run away from the problems without resolving them. Someone who prays believe that the "god" will solve the issue for him, rather than he putting some effort in that direction.
I don't pray. But I have the suspicion that praying was never intended as a "fix my problems" type of thing, and more as a means to get people to subconsciously steer their lives into the direction that they want to move towards.
If you constantly focus on what you want, you will base your life around that even without realizing what you're doing. Praying is one way to achieve this for those that run through life mostly unconscious. I do believe that "prophets" and what not actually understood how reality and humans work, but needed a specific way to communicate it to them to make sure that it would be followed.
Unfortunately a lot of greedy shitheads realized that it could be used to manipulate people as well, so religion went down a bad road.

There are a lot of very valuable lessons to be found in any religion though, even if you don't believe in God.

I agree with you.
Prayer is kind of internal reflection, communication with inner self.
It can help us to focus on real issues in our lives and to realize priorities.
Many times, after such internal talks, inspiration comes, or answers to our problems.

Yes I agree it just means that we need to reflect and have some quiet times.  Quiet times that we used to talk with our creator God.  It is good to talk to Him on whatever we want to say like things that happened in your life the whole day.  Thank Him for all the blessings and ask Him for whatever we want and facing.
2576  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do Love really exist ? on: July 30, 2017, 10:54:37 AM
Love exists between family but if you are hoping to get love from outside in terms of girls then you will never get anything as they would be interested only in your money and if you don't have money it will take no time for them to leave you and start going around with guys who have lots of money.
Are you from America?

To answer the original question. yes it does seem to be that way. The solution to this issue may be simple, but people aren't anywhere near to finding it.

Women have always been attracted to Money, wealth and Power, and I don't think that is about to change any time soon. Gives them a feel that they are secure and safe in life.

I think that money and wealth is important to both man and women.
We have to understand that money and wealth are only foundation for our lives, means to achieve something and not the purpose or ultimate goal of our lives.
So, money itself can't make you happy but can help you to achieve happiness.
Love and happiness is possible to find only in family.

I would agree with you that money or wealth is important in our life and it would make or be the foundation of a family.  Through this, you can have a good harmony in your family as you can provide the needs of your family.  Everything that is possible to give a good life for your family is easy to achieve.  All because of love.  All because you love your family or someone that gives you the strength to earn more money.  To give someone your love a good life.
2577  Other / Off-topic / Re: punishment for rapists on: July 28, 2017, 10:19:12 AM
Rapist should suffer more; they need to get in jail first before to their death.
I mean they need to suffer and make them a punishment inside the jail so that they experience a hell in there.


Yes I agree that they have to suffer first before killing them.  Because when they already dead then their sufferings will end.  For sure they regret that they did or committed that crime of rape.  And it is a torture for them to think what bad they become especially if the victim is of their own blood or it is an innocent one.  Then after all the sufferings, maybe they should be slowly killed.  I mean, little by little torture is enough until they die.

2578  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think billionaires invest in BTC? on: July 28, 2017, 10:16:21 AM
I just always wonder if those billionaires still invest in btc. Do they even know btc exist?

Maybe others know bitcoin but they didn't try it because they are a rich people already. I think they focus only in their career on how they earn and become a billionaire.

I am thinking the same because they are already rich and do not need to venture to something that will waste some of their time.  Not actually waste but I mean, to think of bitcoin is not their thing.  They know it for sure because they are well informed on what are the happenings in the world especially to the new things in technology and to finances.  They are maybe richer if you will combine all those bitcoins in circulation. 
2579  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin reduces unemployment on: July 28, 2017, 10:13:45 AM
In addition to reducing unemployment bitcoin can also be an alternative to find additional money for those who already work

I dont think so, first thing first , bitcoin is not a job, financially speaking it may give you extra income but not totally reduce unemployment since bitcoin is not registered to the government for them count it as possible way to increase economy of a certain country.

Yes, it will not reduced unemployment because as you said it is not a job.  But it can help people to at least have a decent income while they are unemployed.  They will not need to worry about expenses on their household considering that they have money.  Bitcon is a good way to help people who were currently unemployed.  It could help also our community to stop or at least lessen a crime committed by people who were jobless.
2580  Economy / Economics / Re: If you have a lot of bitcoin, should you spend it or save it? on: July 28, 2017, 10:11:05 AM
Let's say I have 2.1 BTC And I don't spend it. Will it go up a few cents if I save it? Cause in my wallet I have up to about 50 cents worth of bitcoin. I started up with 13 cents 7 months ago. Now all of sudden I have bitcoins worth 50 cents. What do you call this? I only made that one 13 cent deposit. Nothing else!

There is no problem if you want to spend it or save it, the decision is yours. Two things  can happen, If you save it for a long time, maybe the time comes that its price rises so high or maybe it will gone soon. I probably want to happen the first choice. But to be safe devide it into two, in cryptocurrency and to real cash.

I would do the same thing, to convert my bitcoin into cash and some to keep in my wallet.  We do not know what will happen as time goes by with bitcoins.  It can continue to goes up or it will be gone.  I also want to enjoy the hard work I put into earning bitcoins that is why I will spend some of it.  Just to feel inspired to go on and earn more bitcoins.  I will give some to my family for them to believe that bitcoin is a real thing. Because they do not believe on it right now even if they see me earning through it.
