with 1.5BTC i would only get more into trading and mostly in trading altcoins, but that is just me.
there are other options like investing in casinos bankroll which can be profitable but still risky, you can also start lending bitcoin to those who need it which can be safe if you take a good collateral.
3482  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is this what we called "addictive to gamble"? on: April 10, 2016, 02:07:35 PM
we know that most of the times we lost on gambling, but instead of stopping we keep on playing for the next day

after we lost, we got frustrated but we still back to play, is this called "gamble addiction"?

not completely but it can be the definition of a gambler addict.
it depends on a couple of factors. for example if they come back everyday and lose again in the next day and the amount they lose is also big for them and they don't or can not stop this routine then yest it is an addiction to gambling.

NoDiggity vs Power Rangers. Both teams last meet NoDiggity win, and i think NoDiggity can make it again today.
DB vs Empire. Empire is not in good shape, but i trust them on this match.

hmm, interesting but i have held off from betting on these two matches. i was rooting for Power Rangers before. and also in the DB vs Empire match i love the Empire team lineup but they have disappointed me in the past and i couldn't decide what will happen to this match so i didn't make bet.

it depends on you and what are you planning to do.

for example you can start trading like a lot of us just by going to the exchanger's website and placing orders on your favorite altcoin and the price you like to buy/sell and make profit that way.

but also if you are interesting in alternative ways of trading and making it easier on yourself you can use bots, but they are not magic they just offer a couple more features that may or may not be even useful for you per se'.
3485  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Can international wire transfer be reversed? on: April 10, 2016, 01:28:03 PM
It can not be reversed, excepted if the money transfer is missing somewhere, but even then it would be a lot of headache for bank workers  Wink

that is wrong, it can in fact be reversed.
but since it is a bank and they have their customers contact info, they will contact the receiver and tell them there is this request saying you ripped them off and they want their money back what do you have to say to that.

they don't want to lose their customer (receiver) afterall.
3486  Economy / Economics / Re: Loans too risky? on: April 10, 2016, 01:25:01 PM
I would definitely not be doing anonymous loans over the internet with that kind of budget. But if you can meet someone in person with good credentials, you might be able to broker a good loan agreement.

With 800BTC he can start a small sized bank in most parts of the world, no need to be lending out BTC in an online forum.  Smiley
I guess 808 BTC is not that great fortune in the US, but as you said - you can move to some pretty amazing place.
And this amount of money will let you live until you die without need of working and in moderate luxury.
For now 808 BTC is worth $338,600 but until 2017 the price will probably double.

that's right 800BTC=$339,000 is a big amount of money but not big enough to start a bank anywhere in the world. you need a lot more than that to start a bank.
there are some other small businesses that you can start with that amount though.
3487  Economy / Economics / Re: Most crypto-currencies values went down in the last 4 days? on: April 10, 2016, 01:21:08 PM
the biggest one is the ethereum dump, it has gone down to $8 (0.019BTC) and the two other altcoins that i saw rising with ETH is also going down the maidsafe which is down 24% to $0.05 and the one is factom 21% down to $0.09
and they are all showing the end of the big 2016 hype that led to their increase in the first place.
3488  Economy / Speculation / Re: Stable, stable, stable! on: April 10, 2016, 01:16:54 PM

i think it's normal to think the price may go to below $400 levels as bitcoin has surprised many of us plenty of times already. i think this month we'll make an attempt to reach $450 as we're heading towards the block halving. but then again, i don't think we will be able to hold $450 for long as the price will get dumped down again.

Why $450? Has there been a lot of buying around $450? Apart from that possibility, I'm not seeing anything about $450 that suggests there'll be resistance - the only significance I can see is that the last peak reached $450 - but that was in the context of lower peaks, higher troughs.

I expect resistance around $500, however, due to the November high.

the market is currently in state of repeating. we have seen the price move in the direction of $450 before, and it didn't even make it to that price level. for some reason it won't go much above that price level, and yes, i agree that the charts don't show anything special at these levels, but i find it very weird though.

the reason is because of the sell walls that was placed in order to keep the price from going any more higher which i find a little strange but i have seen this happening.
3489  Economy / Speculation / Re: Hold onto your balls gentlemen , the halvening is coming! ;) on: April 10, 2016, 01:02:30 PM
I was told to hold "onto" my balls... thought it'd be exciting. Didn't know that it'd be because they'd been repeatedly kicked, me, left writhing in pain.  Angry

Holding onto ones balls requires some balls to begin with so already you  don't qualify, but nice try anyways.... 
This pretty much sums this thread all up. Nothing new to read in here, yet another new topic about halving. As correctly stated in here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1410022.0, we will have more than 100 new topics about halving, as most of the users in here don't know how to use search option.

people keep repeating everything because literally nothing is happening lately. i think by the time that the block halving has been completed, there will be close to 200 threads about it. searching for an already existing thread costs time while creating a new thread is done in a few seconds.
Yep, horizontal trends are boring unfortunately and this is also reflected in all these 'new' threads about halving.
We have to simply wait until the resolution, but even then I wouldn't expect fireworks, if we do not have any extra developments.

what extra developments are you hoping to see this year that will bring the action back to the currently boring market? i really can't think of any beside the block size increase.

the block size increase is such a big development on its own that bitcoin will not need any more exciting things for a while in order to push the price up. it has gone on for long enough and should come to an end soon.
3490  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Japan is starting to love bitcoin again... on: April 10, 2016, 12:38:35 PM
i think this is just pre pump accumulation by the japanese people, they have sensed the rise is near and now are accumulating as much as they can before it actually happens. nothing strange either.

3492  Economy / Speculation / Re: sold my alts, all in BTC on: April 08, 2016, 12:05:33 PM
Selling altcoin could be a good idea. Now, even the most popular altcoin, the Ethereum is dropping in price.

nah, i would never leave the altcoin market, it is too good to get out. when Ethereum goes to hell there is 10 other coins to get into and when those 10 go to hell there is another 10 or maybe ETH again with a dead cat bounce.

anyways i think it is too soon to move back to bitcoin 100%, but i am monitoring it closely Smiley
3493  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price rise is over on: April 08, 2016, 12:02:07 PM
The price rise is over for now but it will not take a lot of time before it will rise again in my opinion.
Its just all a matter of time before its gonna rise again, it has a pretty good future also because of the halving so because of the halving it will also rise at the end of this year.

this topic was created a long time ago. and was meant to be a FUD. and ever since there has been only one down and a lot of small size rises for day-trading. and the real rise is not even yet happened.
3494  Economy / Speculation / Re: How many bitcoins do I need to retire in 20 years? on: April 08, 2016, 11:56:38 AM
perhaps if bitcoin can back to the price $1000, i think 1000 bitcoin is enough for you retire in 20 years.

1000 btc is really a huge amount and honestly speaking its not easy for anyone to hold that huge amount, we need to be practical and accept the reality.

In 20 years, the price of bitcoin could be around $200,000. So you need around 10 bitcoin to have good life.

meh, as much as i love this to happen since i am holding bitcoin and will continue to hold even if the price passes $1000 mark, i don't think $200,000 for 1BTC price is at all possible. there is never going to be enough demand to push it that high.
3495  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: how to start trading with a very small amount on: April 08, 2016, 11:51:06 AM
the most important to do when trading anything is to stay aware of the market of that thing, and all the news that is happening with it. for example a developer team change or release of a new feature can shoot the price up.

and it doesn't matter how much you have for trading because most exchangers will let you make orders as small as 10000 satoshi.
3496  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: simple tips for newbie trading bitcoin pair altcoin on: April 08, 2016, 11:45:31 AM
- don't put all your buy order at 1place,
- don't buying altcoin in ICO, IPO etc.
- don't buying altcoin when the price rising (+100% or more)
- sometimes we must sell our altcoin, even we lose for buy back at lower rate
- don't buying altcoin with not active dev, potentially scam is higher.

very good set of points for trading. although each of them can be argued and may have exceptions, the general rule for trading is this.
for example sometimes i buy when the altcoin is rising to catch the rocket to the moon and gain at least a portion of the profit, although this is risky i haven't yet striked out.
3497  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: help my problem, i send some bits but not showing at block explore? on: April 08, 2016, 11:31:05 AM
this is the problem with blockchain.info website.

sometimes they are not connected to their nodes so they can't receive the new transactions.

if you look at the bottom of the page (number of the nodes connected) sometimes you see that it is red or even zero, which indicated the problem.

i had this problem but only with unconfirmed transactions. you can use any of other 100 block explorers to check this out. and be sure.
3498  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [Poll] How do you back-up you private key or secret seed? on: April 08, 2016, 11:25:37 AM
i think it is best to keep it in multiple forms like storing it on paper and offline pc. and i am looking into it.

but so far i am only keeping it in my cold storage, in an offline wallet only.
3499  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are you holding your bitcoin for a price increase? on: April 08, 2016, 11:21:49 AM
I mine altcoin and convert them to bitcoin. I think the bitcoin price will rise faster than most altcoins.

you are doing the safe thing here. because bitcoin price has a better chance of rising than altcoins.

but the rate at which the price rises is so much higher with altcoins, for example they can easily go up 3x-4x of their current price while bitcoin goin up 2x means reaching $840 which is hard.
3500  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Doubling Bitcoin? on: April 08, 2016, 11:17:52 AM
if you are talking about doubling bitcoin in the fastest way there is gambling  but its very risky you may lose in seconds,you ca also trade some alt coin ,trading require skill I saw many have succeded in trading.
but if you want to double your bitcoin with patience just hold it for long term and wait for the price to skyrocket.

i would prefer trading over gambling any day of the week for earning money or doubling my bitcoin since that is the case here.
gambling is just so risky with no way of changing the risk and if you lose, you lose all your bet money but in trading if the price goes down you can sell before losing big
