2821  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is the existence of bitcoins a threat to jobs and national currencies? on: August 11, 2018, 10:57:05 AM
Bitcoin was not created to destroy jobs and the national currencies but to harness payment methods in business through its decentralized nature. Bitcoin offers smooth transaction without any interruption from third party, affordable transaction costs and fast transaction speed.

It is just sad that this "affordable costs" is not really a reality. There are still some people who transact Bitcoin that complains about the high transaction fee. If I will be using Bitcoin to pay something, I guess I'd rather use other means of payment than Bitcoin. Also, that is the reason why a lot of platform did not accept Bitcoin including Steam.

Hi everyone!

I am Niquie, a representative of Coins.ph, ready to help you with your concerns/inquiries/feedbacks regarding Coins and our services. This is going to be the official thread from now on. Some of you might have noticed that I changed my username from NiquieA to Niquie@Coins. NiquieA will no longer be available.

Thank you and looking forward to hearing from you all. Smiley

Hello , Maganda to na meron nang thread ang coin.ph para mas madali nilang mabasa ung mga hinaing ng mga users.Hoping someday matutunan ko pang mabuti ang paggamit ng bitcoin at ng coins.ph.Salamat.

Matagal na itong thread na ito at wala pa din naman nagbabago since hindi lahat ng services is perfect, nagkakaroon talaga ng mga diperensiya paminsan- minsan. At hindi naman isang tutorial ang coins.ph since isa lang itong exchange. Better na dito ka magbasa about sa Bitcoin at hindi sa coins.ph.

Looking at the current market, many people are disappointed in the market price, bitcoin prices stomping at the $ 7000 level, altcoin prices are falling deeply. Recent good news, however, shows that the market continues to grow and has great potential in the future. What would you do this time: Buy bitcoin, buy altcoin or do nothing?

Yeah if you look on the market current price is very disappointing so sad all are going down. But for the investors this is the right time to buy a coins and hold it for the long term investment.

If you are holding for a long term, how can you say that the current price is disappointing? How can you say that the price is disappointing when the price is not really low and the price last year is far more higher than the price right now? How is that a long term investment if you will quickly judge the price of Bitcoin in just a couple of month? I don't know how you keep your self from holding your Bitcoin in a long term if you can quickly become disappointed to the price change.
2824  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you still continue? on: August 07, 2018, 12:56:11 PM
What will you do if after losing several times in gambling, you are left with only small amount of money and that money will be for your fuel or for transportation, will you still continue with the little you are left with? What if you lose?
Well for me after losing amount of money I won't stop I will continue to play and with that I will win it I will win a lot of money after winning I will stop and make a business and invest at bitcoin.

That is a nice view of what will not happen if you continue on gambling. Gambling as said by a lot of gamblers themselves are so bad when you want to win a lot. They said every time they went to gamble, and desperate to win, it will not happen and the other result of it, the bad result will happen. You will not really win in gambling, you might not feel it but you are losing a lot of money from it.
2825  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does convince people to enjoy gambling is a wrong idea? on: August 07, 2018, 12:13:50 PM
I guess this depends on the individual that you will be teaching. There are a lot of gamblers out there gambling for source of money and what bring to them is not wealth or riches but regret and depression. If that individual can control himself, is responsible of what he will be doing in a gambling site or casino, I guess you can. Everyone has their own way of releasing stress and some of them are being misjudged since they are gambling.
2826  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling addiction mainly due to loneliness and dissatisfaction? on: August 07, 2018, 11:13:33 AM
Yesterday I watched a video about addiction on youtube: https://youtu.be/ao8L-0nSYzg. It was a real surprise to me that according to recent research people are addicted to drugs mainly because they can't bond well with people and are not able to live a satisfying life. The research shows that when an addicted person appears in a loving and caring environment, the addiction kind of disappears (even heroin addiction). I wonder what are your thoughts on this matter and whether you think you could say the same about gambling addiction.

People are really finding what's best for them specially when they needs to have to listen there own problems and to comfort with them too. We can't control what people's like and want to do in their own lifes. Play gambling with a self control and not to waste with your life.

If people are finding the best for them then why would hey go to a casino or visit a gambling site to gamble? Are they thinking that gambling is a solution for problems? Gambling is just gambling, it ruin lives, it leads you to bankruptcy and it will take away all your loved ones, is that a good solution to a problem? No. Being responsible is the solution for problems.
2827  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin has no competition on: August 06, 2018, 12:18:45 PM
BTC is the king but remember someones always wanting the kings throne unfortunately btc day will come to an end but not for a while yet.

Well, a lot of people said that even popular developers but nothing succeeded. I think Bitcoin will be staying on the top until the end of the time since Bitcoin is the first and the most popular of them all. It is been 10 years since Bitcoin is used but nothing can surpass it in terms of it's value. In terms of it's efficiency, to be honest there are a lot of other crypto currencies that is better but not as overvalued as Bitcoin.
2828  Economy / Economics / Re: Wise thing to do with your savings. on: August 05, 2018, 03:49:58 PM
All we wants and need someday will rely on it. Spending on the right time and have a valued for you is the best thing/move to do with it. So don't waste our savings.

well maybe I will use well the savings that I have received for a better and more useful future.

A lot of people said that, I heard it in the class I usually attended and a lot of my elementary classmates saying it but it did not happen. You know, you don't need to rely on money that you have or you will have, you need to rely on yourself to have a better and more useful future. I am saying this to my class everyday and well, I don't know if that is getting through them.
2829  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you find Success in Gambling? on: August 05, 2018, 02:11:45 PM
yes of course if we have big capital and have a gambling site it is obviously very profitable and can make lots of money quickly, but unlike people who gamble, most people do not feel the success of gambling because they do it just for fun and just make it just entertainment that can earn good luck

Really? Most of the people gamble to do it for fun? To be entertained? To earn good luck? No. They are there since earning money on gambling is easy. You bet your money on gambling, you depend or rely on your luck that you might not know if you are or not all you need to do is to win and earn money that don't really happen most of the time. You can't be successful on gambling, there are times that people are but not all of the people or gamblers will be the same.
2830  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin cannot be a global currency on: August 05, 2018, 02:08:19 PM
yes i really agree. according to me it is not suitable as a currency i would rather consider bitcoin as a digital asset. in my country also bitcoin is not considered a currency but as a digital asset

Well, Bitcoin is volatile and these days, there are a lot of hackers and scammers than the total of sites and informations you can trust online. People on our country look at Bitcoin as a scam since there are a lot of scam companies, ponzi schemes that are just pointing the problem to Bitcoin and make it an escape route to take their money. It is not suitable, but there will be a crypto currency that will be suitable.
2831  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What to do when being scammed on: August 05, 2018, 01:33:40 PM
That is just sad but that is your fault clicking on those links that is warned by a lot of people here in the forum. Never or try to be careful on clicking on links since scammers are very tricky and creative. They are so smart on what they do so you really need to be careful on what you do. There is a lot of instances that this happens and it is not only BTC that is scammed.
2832  Economy / Economics / Re: When bitcoin prices rise up the market also will on: August 04, 2018, 01:52:16 PM
When bitcoin prices rise up the market price will also rise up because the bitcoin is the leader coin in the coin market cap , and it is considered as reference value of tokens and altcoins so if bitcoin rise up ,the other coins will also follow.

Most of the altcoins today has a price based on ethereum which is tether to bitcoins so obviously some of the altcoins will grow its price as well.

Well it don't really happen all the time. We all know that since the price of Bitcoin and ethereum is not proportional to each other all the time as we had seen it in the starting months of this year. The price of Bitcoin in that time is having a great decrease, a lot of investors are worrying that the bubble popped but it is not since that is the normal movement of the Bitcoin but the thing is that while the price of Bitcoin is continuing to fall down, the price of Ethereum is continuing to go up and that is the time that the price of Ethereum reached it's peak at 4 digit price.
2833  Economy / Economics / Re: Be greedy when others are fearful... on: August 04, 2018, 12:10:59 PM
I certainly agree with him. If that man is then certainly he is greedy and certainly noy fearful. The principle is an instinct that everyone or has for his ownself. But it always matter when you can control it. Greed is good only when your aim is to get rich but if you wanted to help people then share at least.

Just when did greediness became a good thing? If greediness is a good think, that will not be a part of the 7 deadly sins. Greed is a sin and no matter what you do, it is a sin it will never be a good thing. A lot of people are blinded by it, instead of being greedy why not just follow what you want to. Greed is a sin but it is a part of it, no matter what we do it will always be with us. And we all know that most of the greediest people that is alive never shares, the reason? They are greedy.
2834  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are some of the best movies based on gambling? on: August 04, 2018, 11:14:28 AM
What are some of the best movies based on gambling? My favorite is Rounders. What about you ?

There are a lot of movies revolving around gambling, one of my favorites are 21. I think that is the first movie that I've watched that is really all about gambling. The other movies I love is not about Gambling but there are some moments there about gambling that I love.

Focus and The Hang over has some gambling moments that I will never forget. I don't really like Gambling genres since we all know how will they end up, trouble on the casino or either with their families and friends.

Yes 21 is an excellent movie, actually me and my friends planned to visit the real casino that time we refer some movies in our list my best movie is 21 superb screenplay and ideas are incredible but in real time those ideas will not work but one strategy helped us. in 3 card game how the group of friends can cheat casino we tried but we failed.

Never thought that this movie will be left out but in fact a lot of people posted about it. I don't really watch gambling movies until my father suggested this certain movie since I really like movies where the MC is so smart or intelligent. And this is a movie, I don't think it will also apply on the real game, well, no one can beat the "system" on the real casino.
2835  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To quit gambling is to quit yourself on: August 04, 2018, 10:34:29 AM
It completely depends on them because some people won't gamble after losing money but people who are addictive to gamble will not leave the gambling even after losing a huge amount of the money. Everything depends on their nature because when it comes to me i used to gamble when i have free time and will not spend more on it.

then they will be hard to quit gambling, and they will lose all of their money. and if we want to stop gambling, then it will start from ourselves, and if necessary, we can ask the other people to always remind us and get us to leave from the gambling places. maybe this is difficult for the addicting gambler, but I believe that he realizes that he needs to quit gambling, then he will try to leave no matter how hard it will be.

Well, the best thing to do really here is to ask for help, and yes, we must really accept the fact that we are not really doing anything good for ourselves but feeding our greediness by putting our money into gambling. It really boosts the greediness into us whenever we hear these games, and even if you are avoiding this game will not help you because it will just make you more hungry for it. There are a lot of people that can help you and you can start by asking your family, your loved ones or your friends.
2836  Economy / Economics / Re: Why spend time in bitcoins? on: July 31, 2018, 04:32:14 PM
Bitcoin is a blessing for people like us who want to earn money quickly and in an easy way.Cryptocurrencies are the future of money.Cryptocurrencies will thrive and live.Bitcoin is the best option in today's date for investment purposes.

Well, Bitcoin is made and I think it is not a blessing to us people or users or investors and traders but just a way of risking our money and earning them. If I am asked why am I spending some of my time here, I give a quick and easy answer, because it's worth it. While time progresses, the price of Bitcoin and other crypto currencies do too and that is a good thing especially to investors that invested early on it.
2837  Economy / Economics / Re: The dollar affects Bitcoin? on: July 31, 2018, 03:34:00 PM
US dollar affects not only bitcoin but the whole economic system, dollar is used as payment method and tangible asset which used in everyday transactions while bitcoin mainly used only for investment nowadays. If we compare bitcoin transaction / day with government or banking institution combined then surely it affects much. As people need more cash money they will sell bitcoin and going for dollar.
What you say is true in a certain sense. The dollar is now regarded as the world's common currency. So when the price of the dollar goes down, it will certainly affect the market.

But even if the dollar make a change the price of Bitcoin will not change because the only thing that can make a change on the crypto currency price are us users. Dollar is just the given value of Bitcoin since it is the most traded currency in the world, even if the price of dollar goes down, I don't see it affecting the market especially the crypto currency market.
2838  Other / Archival / Re: Have you ever won a Jackpot? on: July 31, 2018, 12:34:09 PM
Jackpot is something which occurs only during dreams. Neither have I won any jackpots, nor have any of my friends had such a fortune. I am not saying that I am a gambling addict. I play only once in a while. But even then, my experience has been largely negative.

to win a jackpot, we must have a big luck and we are in the right time and in the right place. without having of these, it is just only in our dream and it is really difficult to get a jackpot. many of us don't have an experience of winning a jackpot but many of us can win some money from many games so we still make money from the gambling games. but it feels different if we can win the jackpot than win some game and it makes us wants to say "yes, finally I can win that jackpot" Grin
Of course winning the jackpot is still different from winning in a single bet or a single session. Simply because when we say jackpot, the amount you're about to get is huge like in PD, currently they have 112BTC jackpot. Imagine winning such amount will give a one person a satisfaction. If ever I won such jackpot. I'll stop in gambling.

Yeah a 112BTC WIN.) That would would turn any Monday into a Great Day Smiley

Not only a Great day but the most epic and and best day ever of my life. 112 BTC is enough money to start a great business and will really make a great investment not only on Bitcoin but also on other crypto currencies and projects. I have no experiences on winning any jackpots or main prizes but I do know the feeling of winning on good days and times. I guess winning a good jackpot will really drag me back on gambling more.
2839  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does positive thinking affect your edge in gambling on: July 31, 2018, 11:26:52 AM
Sometimes luck is better than knowledge because how much you are knowledgeable about gambling if it is not your destiny to win you will lose it. Yes, we need knowledge and it is usable but the luck is much more better we have than knowledge.
Knowledge in what? we do have enough knowledge about gambling, strategies, luck, etc. Knowledge in positive thinking? there's no need for knowledge on that thing, what we need is to have a positive mindset and depend on the games destiny. If you are lucky, you will win but if not it's okay.

Well, depending on "game's destiny" or the outcome is not a good thing. Having your own way on gambling is the best thing and not really relying on the outcome. It is like life, if you don't dug your way out you will be just depending on what will happen and that is not a bad thing. Digging your way out is good since you will not just create your way but you can also just make your dreams come true.
2840  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Why is bitcoin doing better than bitcoin cash? on: July 30, 2018, 03:44:04 PM
Bitcoin cash does not have the consent of the bitcoiners because it doesn't have the consensual power of btc. Bch is too little decentralized.

Well, for a common user of crypto currency, they will only say that BCH is not really the Bitcoin we know. Even if we can say that BCH is the real vision of Satoshi Nakamoto as a crypto currency, it is still not the real Bitcoin. As said in the past BCH is still another altcoin like any other else that wants to create their own Bitcoin. As bounty hunters say, another fork, another free money.
