Very helpful, thanks for the list  Grin

Yeah but if you had 50BTC and it went to 5000USD, are you saying you would cash out 100% of it just to retire? Could you live with the doubt of it reaching 10K and missing on legit gains?
And if you do not cash out, could you live off the doubt of it crashing after 5k?
It's a psychological game.
303  Economy / Speculation / It only takes breaking the psychological barrier of 1K twice to go several moons on: August 26, 2014, 05:24:16 PM
The 1K milestone was the psychological barrier, and it was beaten. Given the moment in history we are, and given the intrustive technology behind BTC and what it all means, once we break 1K again, consolidation will ensue, all these ridiculous doubts will vanish, and those that sold will be butthurt in levels unknown to mankind. Once that barrier is crossed again, sky is the motherfucking limit.
304  Economy / Speculation / Re: When will bitcoin hit 252,000 USD? on: August 26, 2014, 05:21:36 PM
I believe that in the future 1 full BTC will have a value too high for the regular people.
They will can afford to purchase only fractions of 1 BTC, like BITS  ( http://www.coindesk.com/breaking-down-btc-bit-by-bit/ )
Only the lucky ones who are holding will hit the jackpot  Cool


Do you think in 2024, you'll be able to buy a car and a house with 1 BTC? thats what matters. It's all about purchasing power, not some USD equivalence.  Cool
305  Economy / Speculation / Re: What possible events would make bitcoin go to $0? on: August 26, 2014, 05:19:19 PM
Exactly, there will always be someone that will try to collect all of them. Imagine owning an entire currency, even if a deceased one, it would be the first crypto currency. It would have historical value. I think there would be people wanting to pay a big amount for it, just like a museum.
306  Economy / Economics / Re: The best way to invest Bitcoin? on: August 26, 2014, 05:17:42 PM
Yup, the best that can be done is to buy a decent amount, say 10, then cold storage it, FORGET about it, then come back 10 years later, see what happened. You either wasted a lot of money or you either won SHIT TONS of money.
Of course, the tentation to not follow the BTC world once you are in is almost impossible.
307  Economy / Economics / Re: People In Australia Have paid over $150k In Bills With Bitcoin on: August 26, 2014, 05:16:32 PM
Actually thanks to Stunna im paying some bills with BTC, is not much but the little im making with the sig campaings is a very nice help for me. Thank BTC  Grin
308  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is Freedom on: August 26, 2014, 05:15:38 PM
Bitcoin is freedom you can actually buy. Cheesy

I hope it will remain free and not perverted into something else by lobbyists. Freedom is on a decline trend globally. So we should remain watchful that essential aspects of bitcoin (full fungibility) are not destroyed by the authoritarian and ignorant.

ya.ya.yo!

How in hell could they pervert something that is open source tho? Everyone would lose trust as soon as it went closed source in future updates so that is a nono.
Henceforth, as long as it remains open source, regulations are kinda pointless, since you are free to do whatever the fuck you want with your BTC, no matter how many regulations they come up with.
309  Other / Off-topic / Re: BTC Balance of BitcoinTalk Members on: August 26, 2014, 05:12:54 PM
My BTC balance is a secret  Grin

But I can tell you that most of what I have has been put into altcoins,
the majority of which is Monero (XMR)

I still have my XMR which I bought ages ago. Still not seeing legit gains. Of course I had to buy in the middle of the first bubble, fucking bad luck from hell damnit.
310  Economy / Speculation / Re: $10,000 when? on: August 26, 2014, 05:11:36 PM
I would say Never even if I'am new on Bitcoin ... but I see that it was about 600$ last month ... and it's dropping badly this month 480$-520$ so .. yep  Cry
It's rising, 518$ now. These flucuations are normal in bitcoin. If we have a big rise like in the beginning now, we would end at around 2000$. 10.000$ is far away but I wouldn't say never. At the same time, fiat is suffering from inflation.. so I hope BTC rises faster than fiat inflates

I really don't understand how someone Annonymus made this BitCoin .. they don't even know how he looks like .. & all the world is using it Roll Eyes dosen't make a lot of sense to me .

but I really wanna see BTC rising haha , I started buying some

Why do you need to see how he looks like to use it?  Roll Eyes

Exactly.

Also, the bitcoin core program is open source, and so you can check every line of the code if you want to.

Yeah, thats what you need to see, the code, not how Satoshi looks like. Is this Ms Bitcoin Pageant or what? lol.
311  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: FIRST Bitcoin ATM machines in Missouri and Kansas on: August 26, 2014, 05:10:30 PM
Most people are really curious when they see these machines, they are usually dumbfounded, im just hoping they aren't as shitty as the ones on this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vnm4xFC2xNo

Because shit like this can ruin Btc adoption.
312  Economy / Speculation / Re: Crossed 500 USD - Bull Market returns ? on: August 26, 2014, 05:06:48 PM
I see a nice support now at around that area. We shall wait and see to see if we are walking on legit waters or not. I would HODL for sure.
313  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: question related to Escrow. on: August 26, 2014, 05:05:42 PM
If you want to do escrow without reputation, you can always make a deposit with a trustworthy escrow, this way people will trust you up to the amount you deposited. Slowly, people might start trusting you even without the deposit.

But then why would people use your new escrow service instead of that experienced trustworthy escrow?

Yeah, there is always a risk when you use a escrow that hasn't been timetested by a lot of people, but with this paranoid mentality there would be no new successful business ever, everyone has to start from scratch once (unless you are born rich  Roll Eyes)
314  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Help Bitcoin on: August 26, 2014, 05:03:07 PM
What you need to do is to do a backup of your entire Bitcoin folder (located by putting %appdata% in the search thing in the windows icon)
so you dont have to constantly download the whole blockchain everytime you format or reinstall windows.

Or just get Electrum.
315  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Need help implementing Bitcoin project at kids’ high school on: August 26, 2014, 05:01:32 PM
I have thought about what would happend if you gave every kid at class a decent amount of BTC.
Would they keep it, or would they inmediately cash out and buy the new Xbox One videogame?  Grin
316  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What bitcoin myth you want to see us bust next? on: August 26, 2014, 05:00:23 PM
Will Bitcoin ever be popular among the average joe and young people (teens, a big big part of the internet generation)
317  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Any reference books or scholarly books about cryptocurrency? (Bitcoin) on: August 26, 2014, 04:59:00 PM
I havent checked it out but, what about this one?

318  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is an Altcoin on: August 26, 2014, 04:58:12 PM
bitcoin was the first one, so everything else is altcoin. Cool Cool

It was not actually the first one, I remember there were other people trying to come up with a similar thing.
Bitcoin was the first one to do it right tho, and get the bigger adoption. SO yeah, I could understand people that say its the first one.
319  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are girls using Bitcoins? on: August 26, 2014, 04:36:18 PM
I don't think the number is wide by any means. If we had actual data, girls would be a minority IMO. Most people active in the BTC world are still legit geeks.
320  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin Ready for the Major Leagues? on: August 26, 2014, 04:34:55 PM
I always wonder how the hell the world will be like in 2140. We'll never know  Cry
