As per we can see the interest in bitcoin of people is increasing at a high rate...I believe it will be our future...but will the shoppingsites like flipkar,amazon be able to accept bitcoins?
may be in the next generation.......thanz fr reading
yes , there's more people has interesting in the bitcoin since this months. i think its because its BER months? (i think only) when the ber month's come some people has got a problem in their financial assistance they cant provide their own needed their need extra income because they're salary is enough for the budget of the family they don't have a budget for they're luxuries and we know the bitcoin can help our financial problem just to earn with it without investing. so many people now are get interesting

That's true, many people have been gaining awareness on the high potential of bitcoin and the positive effects it can bring a person individually and the market through augmentation of trades and transaction. It's a new way that has never been seen before; dealing with cryptocurrency. Especially now that it commands a very high price point, it would call more people's attention to try their hand on it.

Fair can have two meanings, one being justice and the other equal. An equal society is exactly what is sounds like when everyone is equal in everything from rights to money to clothes. A just society is one where everyone gets what they deserve. If you work hard you get money. If you have good habits you will be healthy.

To me an equal society kinds of sounds like socialism but I think that I would prefer to live in a society where everyone is equal. I think however that we live in a more just society than a fair one. So many people are not equal but just as many do not get what they deserve.

What do you think? Do we live in a fair society? Is it more just, equal or something else entirely?

Thanks for the thoughts!
a fair society is a society who does not look own to others. It is having an fair and equal treatment whether you are poor or wealthy. Black or white. Famous or not. Known or camouflage. Equality over identity. that is a fair society for me.

I think a fair society is a society where rights and opportunities are equal for anyone and everyone. It's not only available to those who are in the upper tiers of society. In our world today, only the people who are already in the higher ups are receiving an abundance of opportunities while people on the lower classes do not. I know some may lack education, but if only they can be given a chance to succeed and prosper in life, that would improve their lives ways better.
3363  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Is Global Warming Real? on: December 01, 2017, 08:55:00 AM
Yes, absolutely it is real. Actually we are still experiencing it today. Signs that the Earth is warming are recorded all over the globe. The easiest way to see increasing temperatures is through the thermometer records kept over the past century and a half. Around the world, the Earth's average temperature has risen more than 1 degree Fahrenheit (0.8 degrees Celsius) over the last century, and about twice that in parts of the Arctic.

I agree. It's real and its effects are being felt all over the globe and is legitimately happening right now. The sad part is people keep doing the things that aggravates the already harsh effects of global warming, more so they keep on insisting that global warming is not real. Unfortunately, if we keep this up, the world would increase it's temperature in a significant way that the effects would be catastrophic.

I am new to Crypto market. There are too many ICOs out there. How do one decide if an ICO is good or bad?
Ico is a good project but not all the ico is good. So that before you inter their project you need to be careful, read and understand to avoid wrong way to earn money.

It depends on the ICO you are investing or joining. Generally, ICO is a good thing because it let's small time business people to have more people invest in them for it to prosper. However, the bad side is, many people are using it to take advantage of other people and scam them of their earnings, if not, trick them into working for them without getting anything in return. That's why many people think of ICOs very negatively.
3365  Economy / Economics / Re: The dream of getting rich with bitcoins on: December 01, 2017, 08:23:17 AM
Maybe not to get rich, but sure as hell to earn a decent amount of money with bitcoins.

How much money did you earn with bitcoins? Or did you lose some?


you must have the courage to invest with bitcoin. if you do not dare then you will never get bitcoin. I recommend not only save on the bitcoin wallet, because it requires a longer period of time. use bitcoin you have to get more bitcoin.

I think that's the goal for everyone. It would be useless to invest your time and effort, plus your hard earned bitcoins or altcoins for nothing. However, the bitcoin market, like many replies say, is not as easy as it seems, you have to learn its ins and outs to be able to succeed or see progress at least.

What do you think?Motivate is really motives our mind.Another thing, when you’re inspiring people, you’re not telling them exactly what to do or giving them precise directions. You’re empowering them to be their best, trusting that they will then do the right thing. And the right thing they do may not be what you were expecting; it may be something beyond your wildest expectations.

Well, i still believe that the carrot is better than the stick. If a person is motivated to do something for that person's gain. If we're talking about employer employee relations then setting rewards for certain goals really sets motivation on. Much like how we always want to achieve everything in xbox. But for personal motivation, i make smaller goals to make way for my bigger goals then i reward myself with every goals achieved. The one that actually keeps me motivated are the records i keep of my goals

Well there's lots of ways to motivate a person towards work extrinsically; however, I believe that the best motivator is intrinsic. A person apart from oneself can only do so much to motivate another, but if the motivation comes from within it's easier because it's more potent, and it drives the person better while feeling happy about what he is doing. However, as a manager, you can provide rewards systems, you can make them feel at home at work in the sense that they can work freely through their own personal styles with feeling fulfilled with what they do.

Litecoin is faster, monero is more private, ETH has smart contracts and there are much more altcoin with much more features, even Bitcoin Cash is faster than Bitcoin, but BTC keeps rising much faster.
Don't you think it's just because of the name?

It may contribute as to why bitcoin has been increasing value. Come to think of it, people, when talking about crypto mostly know only bitcoin and not other altcoins. So, I can say that the bitcoin name helps in promoting it, therefore helping in increasing its value. It's potential is off the charts as well that's why more people trust it.
3368  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If bitcoin will be used in our daily transactions. on: November 30, 2017, 11:58:42 AM
If bitcoin will be used as our daily payment is it possible that schools will be accepting it as payment for tuition fees? And if it will be accepted they need to teach the students the use of bitcoin and give the knowledge to use it and how it works.

It may be possible in the near future but paying it with fiat seems more convenient than most families since not all of them know the existence of bitcoins. Another thing, bitcoin's nature being digital, this limits the number of families who will pay using bitcoins since again, not all families are connected into the internet especially the marginalized ones. Teaching bitcoin to universities or schools is certainly a great idea to educate the youth about the value of money, investments, and knowledge to be able to produce revolutionary technologies that may contribute to bitcoins in the future.

It's very much possible, if not, already in the works. Bitcoin has been becoming a big player in the market through its high price point and marketability. It is not surprising that one day, in the near future, that it would interplay with cash money or other online transactions on being used as a prime option to transact and do business.

3371  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think billionaires invest in BTC? on: November 29, 2017, 07:48:00 PM
I just always wonder if those billionaires still invest in btc. Do they even know btc exist?

I believe billionaires would be involved one way or the other because being a billionaire by virtue of work or inheritance means a lot of risk people are not seeing or tapping into is being taken by the decision maker in which I feel bitcoin is also one of such as those of us who are involved are taking and the billionaires while some are seating on the fence waiting for the "ponzi scheme" to fail.

I also do believe that billionaires have set their sites on bitcoin. It's not a bad thing to do since the price point of bitcoin, especially now is very high, and it actually continues to increase reaching more than the 10k mark. Also, billionaires have more asset to invest in the bitcoin market that small-time players don't have.
3372  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 10k Bitcoin upcoming!? What are your plans for the Alts? on: November 28, 2017, 10:33:52 PM
The Alts are doing well because Bitcoin is doing well but the main reason is the thousands of newcomers to Crypto each day.

Look at the total market cap it is now at 240 Billion and 6 months ago it was at 60 Billion while those figures a peanuts compared to the Stock Exchanges, there is no denying the number of new investors continues to rise therefore so does the price of Bitcoin.

My prediction 10k by Early January if not before Christmas.  

News flash: It's already reached 10k. On that note, I agree with the idea that the prices of altcoins are correlative with the price of bitcoin. Although it may increase in different paces, it would soon follow suit because that how the market goes. However, I think there will be some exceptional altcoins that will increase at a more steady and faster pace, and that's where most people should invest in.
3373  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: $10K bitcoin: It is now official on: November 28, 2017, 10:18:21 PM
Whether the price will stay there is the important question for me. We have crossed the $10K threshold a few times now but couldn't manage to hold on. If bitcoin gains a foothold past the $10K mark, then that would be really huge in my opinion.

I am very happy with the development of bitcoin's price. Many has been long waiting for the price point of bitcoin to reach or cross the 10k mark. And now, it has, it's pace has also been unbelievable, to think that just a month ago, it was only in the 6k mark, with actually some predictions that it would experience a dump. But now, evidently, like many seasoned crypto users have said that it's just a matter of time until it will regain its value and continue to rise up.
3374  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why is the price of bitcoin so high on: November 28, 2017, 10:02:15 PM
Bitcoin is the original one, so is it superior. I beleive that altcoins are followers of bitcoin and should be put after bitcoin.
When a person newly gets involved to cryptocurrency, he must know the bitcoin first in order to understand crypto world.
The reason of price rise in bitcoin, is because bitcoin is nominated worldwide and is acceptable at most places, whereas people are mostly not aware of altcoins


That's right. It's always better to be the pioneer, the starter, and the initiator. Bitcoin has introduced cryptocurrency around the world, that's where all other trends and tokens are derived from. Having said, it commands a better marketability, value and potential. All these characteristics contribute to its continued rise in price. Also, it has proven its strength against many changing trends that why it can adjust easily and get back its value even after depreciation.
3375  Economy / Speculation / Re: price of bitcoin in december? on: November 28, 2017, 09:47:36 PM
I think the price of Bitcoin will increase More . Bitcoin can be worth 14k + and at the end of the year

I agree with this, I think it can be around 12-15k or even more, the pace of its price point increase has been very quick. Just looking back one or two weeks ago, its just in the 6k mark, now, it's already passed or in the 10k mark, which is about a 70% increase. That is already a staggering and never-been-seen rise in the bitcoin market. I think it would continue to rise with a few halts here and there.
3376  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoins will intensify to over $1,500 in our lifetime on: November 28, 2017, 09:31:01 PM
Here is my constructive criticism.

The essay could be more focused. There are only a few statements that support your premise, directly or indirectly. The rest seems unrelated.
A more complete essay would anticipate counter-arguments and address them also.
By picking a specific value, $1000, the reader expects you to describe how you arrived at that value.
Minor mistake: the title says $1500, but the body says $1000.

Good point, I agree. Also, it was quite a long but good read, if I may add. You should try to arrange your thoughts first before making an essay about this topic or any topic for that matter. Although you have mentioned good points, your thoughts and train of mentioning them seemed to be in disarray. It would support or showcase your point better if they are in a better arrangement and order.
3377  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin gambling is legal? on: November 28, 2017, 09:14:53 PM
Is Bitcoin gambling is legal?

Why won't it be. Bitcoin is practically another currency that is like any money out there that can be used as a wager or can be gambled for a profit. I think its legality depends on what country you are talking about, some countries use gambling as a big revenue-generating machine and gives massive amounts of tax. In that sense, many countries have already used it for profit, except those that are controlled by underground mafias, I guess.

Tomorrow I'm going to kill myself, and everyone does not care.

You know this is not true, there is always someone who do care for you.
Just think about him/her/them ...

Take care, mate.

I agree, I may not know you, but I am pretty sure that there is somebody out there that looks out for you or looks up to you. Don't waste that. Also, even if you have lost a massive amount due to your deals, it would be better if you would consider that as a learning experience that would give you valuable lessons that can help you actually not commit the same mistake with your deals next time. Just fight!
3379  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Shift price by end of 2017. on: November 28, 2017, 08:41:30 PM
this looks like a good coin to invest in with a good spread. the technology behind it seems promising. the team is active as well.

what do you guys think the price will be by end of the year.



I think so too, I am just hoping that it would gather enough steam to keep on moving. Many coins have been like this, they gather momentum and seemed to have the chance to increase its value tenfold, only to see it dwindle and never to recover or reach it's projected price point. I think it still needs to prove itself, if it can endure the market trends and the introduction of many other coins.
3380  Economy / Economics / Re: Is bitcoin now the strongest currency in the world? on: November 28, 2017, 08:26:33 PM
Nope, it wouldn't take a whole lot to get the numbers to start going down (compared to other currencies).

As much as it pains me to say it, this is the truth.

Now, it does have the capability to become the strongest, so do take that into account.

That's right, one characteristic of bitcoin is its volatility. Having said, even if it may seem that it already reached a good enough price point reaching 10k dollars, it can increase or unfortunately decrease in a glance. That how it goes with the bitcoin market, if we can remember, only a few weeks ago it's just in the 6-7k mark, and now, it's in a staggering 10k. Judging from that, you can actually see how unpredictable it can be.
