This time I get a lot bitcoin of some work. I kept trying and the result is very satisfactory. I earn more money than when I was working in the office. I admit that bitcoin give me a better life.
So you think you can live right now in bitcoin.. what work do you do can you share it with us.. so that we know about how to earn bitcoin easily that we can live in bitcoin with in real job..
i dont think that it is such a good idea to depend on bitcoin for living, because its income is not fixed and not reliable. i think it will take some more time to depend on it, in present time depending on bitcoin for living is a foolish idea. i personally do not believe on bitcoin for living. i have a good job and i am pretty happy with that but i am doing earning from bitcoin as a second option it really assist me in completing my expenses but it does mean that i am going to quite my job for bitcoin.

It depends on a person, we have different standards of living  some may depend on bitcoin earning since price of $ in their country is big enough to support their daily needs especially to 3rd world countries. They can make a living with bitcoin to those who are jobless and  some who needs an extra income. Its not bad  to earn in bitcoin and make  a living with it.
In a first world country, earning bitcoin fulltime may not be very smart of a choice since the cost of living is pretty high. Unlike in a third world country where the cost of living is low, I'm thinking that even if you earn at most 0.01BTC/day, you're able to survive the day and even get to save most probably half of it's value.

hello there,
i was newbie to bitcoin.
already collected some from faucets, service and giveaway.
is gambling worth to try for me?
or it can be double edge for me?
Of course yes, it is worth for every people and make sure play gambling with you can lost it because it is high risk and always remember gambling is just for fun not for active income.
I do not agree, it would not be worth to try gambling. From my vague experience of gambling, I would suggest any new comer not to go for gambling for ever in his lifetime. Because living a life without knowing about gambling must be happier than searching for your life after you got gambling addictions by trying to quit it.
3543  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What keeps you coming back??? on: July 27, 2016, 08:19:17 PM
I always keep coming back because I'm hoping that the next time I bet, I would hit the jackpot or if not at least I will recover my losses but then I keep losing. When I won, I keep betting even if I already hit my target profit suppose to be for the day hoping that I can recover it all and in the end the opposite happens, I lose it all. The greediness in me.  Angry
It's not only you who gets greedy almost everyone does, it happenes with me too i can't stop even if i've profited enough.
When you are having greedy, you will never think about stopping your gambling regardless of your profit or loss calculations. Greedy must play an important role for getting back gamblers into gambling always. That is the reason we do call emotion control must be the essential factor for the success of gambling life.

What you like when gambling alone/ with your friend? gamble with your friend or alone playing in your room/casino. i would like to play alone because i think i must concentrate when gamble.

If I'm playing poker or betting on sports, I prefer to be alone so I can concentrate, but for casino games, since they are pure luck I normally do it with friends.
But regardless of the gambling type I go for, I have to gamble always alone. Because most of the time I do gamble from my home but in my office only I am having some friends. But, it is restricted to gamble in my office. Also I believe, gambling alone is always better option to enjoy those gambling thrills.

no i didn't try to spend my real money in bitcoin world because i can earn bitcoins for free without investing my money i don't risk my real money to those investment website it feels like i always donating my money to those illegal user's but i really like spending my bitcoin into gambling website and shop so that i can use my random staff to help me daily
Your view shows how you are treating bitcoin and your fiat.
I'm sorry to say you're not considering both are as equal. That must be a common mistake most of the bitcoiners are doing now a days. You are protecting your real money without spending them. But you are ready to spend your bitcoins in gambling.

For the reason of you are gaining bitcoin in your free time, it is not low in value nor in it's usage. Try to use them equally or at least love them equally.
Might be, he tries to say, he has only some specific opportunity with the respect to bitcoin payments which are not available for his fiats. But, with the reason of getting bitcoins for free without any investment, we should not treat bitcoin as a low valued currency. I will spend my bitcoins in real time only when fiats are not safe to use there.
3546  Other / Off-topic / Re: du you spend coins on real life. on: July 26, 2016, 09:02:00 PM
iam use bitcoin is real my life but iam exchange fiat money in my country
because is real life is my country not support bitcoin , nothing is real store payment support bitcoin
That is one of the weakness of bitcoin but if you are in brazil 150 stores are accepting bitcoin as payment like coffee bucks..
But you can be still use bitcoin just to withdraw it as fiat and buy anything you want..

Everyone is giving same example of 150 stores in Brazil, no one actually knows what is the exact scenario and at a moment if you want to spend it then you need to convert it to fiat first.
It is more convenient to convert our bitcoins to fiat in order for us to spend it in different stores as bitcoins is only good for online transactions and the reality is our transactions are not only limited online because we still have our social responsibility that we need to spend fiat to comply with it.
Converting bitcoins into fiats, then spending fiat is not equivalent to spending bitcoins on real life.
Moreover, you should be avoid converting bitcoin for the sake of spending unnecessary for converting. Instead of converting why not you just hold and wait till bitcoin shops are getting into regions. While you are waiting you might get your bitcoin's value goes 10x more too.
It is not possible for all the people to hold all the bitcoin saving, as they must need to spend some of their bitcoins to fulfil their life's demand. At the same time, converting bitcoins and spending it in fiat format is more convenient if you are having bitcoin debit cards.

-snip-
That's true the price of bitcoin will be lot higher in coming months, so its better to save them for future and I don't think that price will go below $500 now.
You don't need to be worried about bitcoin just trust it will increase more we still waiting for it to happen , if you afraid of loosing some money then dont buy more and stay with Fiat. I will not be worried if it will decrease a little bit I know it can be recover.
If it falls to $350, I don't see any use of owning bitcoins then as I have purchased almost 70% of my coins at $700 and $650. It would be almost $300 loss which wouldn't be a small decline to accept. However, I don't see it coming as it has increased during halving which was a natural process that led to the increase.
3548  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: POKEMON GO LIKE SITE TO PLAY FOR BITCOINS? on: July 26, 2016, 08:04:38 PM
this is funny
Why is it funny? If it didn't involve some sort of way to make money then less people would not be interested as this is a game intended for children and adults would see it as a waste of their time if it was just for "the fun of playing".
Many gamble as they get the fun to play the game more than they get to make money but thinking logically, I don't see how pokemon go would be possible for bitcoin gambling websites. The cost would be too much to handle and like we are seeing so many negative reviews about this game, it doesn't interest me to have bitcoins associated with it.
3549  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: “RISK” - Motivating factor rather than a Prevention factor in Gambling? on: July 26, 2016, 07:37:59 PM
I play with money can afford to lose. also playing with free money, in fact I never think about the risk, when I play to have fun. I bet when I'm sure, and not think of any risk of loss. unless I put my money for gambling and I will definitely think twice to bet and always think about the risk.
There is no money that one can afford to lose and even I used to play with free money and the losses used to affect me. When I see people winning big by investing very less in gambling, I just keep thinking that they must be experts in the game.

"Risk" factor is not always a motivating factor and even though I earn money from giveaways from these gambling websites, I don't bet it but just withdraw it. Motivation can be the money given just to gamble.

Never have I rolled 8888 in the multiplier game in freebitco.in, but I have already won the Lucky Number 9998 in their faucet once. At that time it was around ~0.029. That happened about a month ago I think, and I have only gotten the usual amount ever since.
3551  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you accept bitcoin as your salary? on: July 25, 2016, 06:42:17 PM
For now, I cannot accept bitcoin as my salary. Its better to accept real and cash money from your company, however bitcoin has so many advantages here in our country. You can pay your bills (electricity, water, internet, tuition fees) without going to their offices and without hassle. If bitcoin has a chance on getting introduce in our country and if our government accepts it, then I will choose bitcoin as my salary.
That's a valid reason. You can't really accept bitcoins as your salary if your boss/company doesn't even know or is interested in it. Although even if I did not have your problem, I'd still prefer to be paid in cash. I don't want my salary to be changing everytime. I just want it to be stable so I don't have to worry about it losing value, even if there is a high chance of it gaining value.
3552  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin to be international currency on: July 24, 2016, 08:33:19 AM
Bitcoin has had a difficult road as it endeavors to become a replacement digital currency. The mainstream propaganda has been mostly quiet about this crypto-currency.

Remember silk road? it is one of the biggest reason on why there isnt any cryptocurrency propaganda right now. Also there isnt any use of promoting cryptocurrency if there isnt any real world usage, it is like promoting thin air which obviously cant be of any use therefore the words " international currency " is nothing more than fairy tale right now

It needs to have a dramatic story to even be promoted into the mass media. Something maybe from a dirt-poor person to a billion-dollar rich person because of bitcoin. Maybe, just maybe, it would get their attention.

But bitcoin will work on it's own. I believe all countries have already gained the attention of bitcoins and some are already planning of how to officially legalize them, plus the adoption and integration stuff.
3553  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst mistake in gambling on: July 24, 2016, 08:03:40 AM
The only big mistake i regret is to had invested into a bidding website, auction site penny i had invested soething like 600 dollars, i had won once but the prize went to charity, and it were the only prize i had won, then the company closed the doors and took my money away.
The money that you won and went to charity, I do not think that it is such a bad thing if at least it was used for something good. But wow. I know it is already common for these kinds of sites/companies but I still get awed to how much confidence they have to do such a thing.
3554  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to quit Gambling for good? on: July 24, 2016, 06:31:04 AM
You will need to get some professional help because I do not really know how to get someone to with with gambling.
That person is going to guide you and you should approach it the best way.
Yes, with the help from well experienced trainer, I too believe one gambler would be able to quit his gambling addictions. But without help from any external help from other people, I mean to say only having self-confident will not help any gambler to come out of gambling in that much easier way.
Yes only your self-confident is not enough for quitting gambling. It is very much tougher task than making profits from gambling. In order to protect your bankroll and to prevent your future losses you need to quit gambling. For that you need to take that pain of quitting gambling to make good cause for your family and yourself.
Yes, quitting gambling will save your future losses. That is the very big advantage one addicted gambler can get at least after leaving gambling. Once you enter gambling you will not find the anything in favor of yourself other than facing losses. But, quitting gambling could be one possible favor thing that might be the starting point of your new life.
When you are in search for your fortune with gambling, you will find everything is against you. When you are facing continuous losses with a gambling, only quitting it is the right choice to regain your life.

Recently I read an article about the recovery of an addicted gambler, he too mentioned it as 're-born'
3555  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do bitcoin accepted in your country? on: July 24, 2016, 06:09:25 AM
There is really no regulations about bitcoins here just yet, and people are just freely using them.
So far, this has not posed any problems. But if there is any theft involving bitcoins, it is really hard to have it brought to court because just as there's no regulations, there's no support from it either.
3556  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is their any safe methods to gamble? on: July 23, 2016, 08:09:42 PM
Instead of looking for safe method to gamble, if you decide to gamble then go for it without having any other secondary thoughts just to enjoy your gambling moments. Because many gamblers are looking for safe methods and leaving their bitcoins loosing with gambling but without enjoying it.
3557  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: July 21, 2016, 07:29:12 AM
I simple thing if you addicted to much then just carry a limited amount so that even if you lose that and want to play more you will not be able to play . But ideally it difficult for those who do not have control on themselves.
I agree, carrying small amounts for your bankroll might lead to stop your gambling after few rounds.
But when you are getting profits from your initial rounds which might make you to gamble more if you do not have how many hours of gambling or how many rounds of betting to be done for that day. This is usually happening with the every gambler like making profits in initial rounds and losing them at end of day.

Is stealing Bitcoin illegal?
While I read the topic, I was like 'wtf did I just read  Huh'. Tongue Maybe you should make the topic a bit more clear? Smiley

Well, if you generate an address and some coins were already there and you use those coins, then it's illegal.

Let's make this even more simple.
Suppose, you generate a private key and somehow it turns out to be the private key of a very large exchange. You transfer those coins to your address. Then the exchange announces that it got hacked and will take legal steps against you. So there you have it, it's illegal Smiley
The chances of that happening though is about ~500x less than winning the grand lotto.
If that happens though, well, just don't steal 'em. It's illegal and morally unacceptable. And if I am in that situation, definitely I will try to contact that address holder in different possible ways. But most of the bitcoiners keep their bitcoins in cold storage and finding them is a highly hard task.

What are your plans(besides buying things)if bitcoin price skyrockets and makes you a millionaire in USD
Do you have plans such as starting a business? a restaurant?bar? making art,movies,fashion,etc? creating something?

My long term dream is to make a luxurious home for my family, so If the price of bitcoin goes skyrockets and it reach to that much value of my dream destination then I will be able to buy a luxurious house for my family then I will buy only that first of all with my bitcoins.
3560  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Please teach me how to grow my bitcoin on: July 20, 2016, 04:40:13 PM
Hello guys please i would love to learn how to make a living through bitcoin... I don't have much but $200 to invest in this, a regular computer with Internet and a very good head for learning thanks I think anything from 2Btc weekly is perfect... I need a source of income badly
Whatever you decide to do with these 200$ don't invest them in any of these cloud mining/ponzi sites cause it is almost sure that you gonna lose your money if you do it.
If you have any skills like programming,designing etc and you are good you can earn a decent income but it is very difficult to reach your 2 btc weekly target.

I do agreed  with what you have said, you better be wise where you going to spend your 200$,.
if you really want to earn big amount of bitcoins you must be skillful in programming for you to earn bitcoin quickly. Wink
Obviously investing $200 to cloud mining sites wouldn't fit his goal of getting 2BTC weekly. And we all know that cloud mining sites are just ponzis in their core. Besides, that goal is nearly impossible to make with just $200 investment. Well, not really but it would take quite a lot of time to get 2BTC a week.
