every day there is a new thing coming out and claiming to (or media claims to) have an effect on bitcoin and be the bitcoin replacement. there are altcoins, bank and financial groups creating blockchains,...
but i think they are all just altcoins that can not grow big enough to be considered a competition. besides if China or any other group creates such a thing it will only be used locally (like only in China) and never be used all over the world like bitcoin does.

i think it is only logical that cia or any other intelligence agency of other countries keep an eye on bitcoin.
just as they are keeping an eye on every other payment processor, money movement, many websites and services and social media,....

for profiting in the future through investing in bitcoin there is always two things that come to mind
- the short term investment, this can either be the day-traders that trade bitcoin every day and earn from small daily changes or buying in a dip and holding for a while to spend at higher price after a while.
- the long term investment, that is for a couple of years and for the time that bitcoin reaches a big popularity and everybody knows and used bitcoin in the future.
both of them have good profit which can create you a good wealth but the second one is where the real money lies because this price now is just a fraction of what it can be by then.

I don' get it, why should demand for bitcoin increase because of this?
because the halving usually bring a good expectations and a good hype it's the same reason why humans are happy only in the festivity.... people just need a reason to be encouraged to do something exactly. i was thinking about this the other day. the hype alone can cause a lot of demand that in turn can cause a big price rise. also add the rest of the speculation to that, then there will be a guaranteed price rise in the near future.

i prefer to trade on bittrex and poloniex and some times on yobit for stupid coin that will die in few week
I can add BTC-e and trading with LTC. I bought at Bittrex LTC and sell them on BTC e and i was good few LTC and again i waiting for my orders to be filled. I don't know why people don't trade more with LTC? It is perfect if you asking me! not sure but as i remember from when i was trading on BTC-e their markets (the first couple of markets anyways) was quite active. and LTC market was one of the active markets there. maybe things had changed there since i last visited. now i only trade on bittrex and kraken

I bought bitcoin because it is the coin to own. It is not inflationary, so the value will not be eroded like the fiat.
this is true only if some whales don't manipulate the market. After being indexed as stock bitcoin is continuosly being manipulated. The whales are manipulating the market all the time. But the value of the bitcoin rises in the last 7 years as we can see. The whales might always continue to try to manipulate the bitcoin market but they cannot do it all the time. yeah, their effect is going to fade away as times goes by because there will be more investors and the spread of wealth makes them weaker but they still will be powerful enough to move price just smaller then.

nothing is for certain. for all we know the bitcoin price can stay here at $410 level for the whole year and just move a little.
but if it is half as it was like last time, the price will go up to 600-700 and more because of it.

i bought bitcoin as an investment for the future price increase, just like others did. I think it's still a good price to buy now. And i also constantly spend some of it.
Yeah and we are hoping that price will rise in future so that we can get good returns and that is the reason majority of us are buying at a moment. i agree. my biggest reason for buying bitcoin was the price rise and the fact that i wanted to get in on the possible profit. but also i came to like bitcoin as i became more and more familiar with it and used bitcoin to purchase some stuff.

|
|
it depends! if bitcoin takes a hit because of the change and major developers leave and give the development of bitcoin to some few that lead it to ruins i would not stay because i don't want to watch something i liked die.

i personally have always preferred diversifying. i spread my investments between multiple things (bitcoin and gold included) and also some promising altcoins. i have played around with stocks but the profit was not good for me so i left it and especially these days i prefer bitcoin more than anything else.

I'm sort of new to bitcoin, I've made a couple bucks already from visiting ad sites, doing faucets, etc, but is there any other way to earn easy cash? Anyone got any suggestions?
As far as I know, there is no such thing as easy cash. If so, everyone could be a millionaire/billionaire/etc. by now, and the term " millionaire/billionaire/etc." will no longer exist. The fastest way to earn Bitcoin is to offer services to people and accept Bitcoin as a payment method. If you look in the services section there are some who offer jobs that they cant do,if you have that skills then you can bid for it. Just dont bet on ponzi as it will just take your money away. for freelance jobs you can also check out reddit there are a couple of subreddits that people post if they want to hire or be hired for a job online. i think one of them was /r/doitforthecoin and /r/jobsforbitcoin or something similar.

1. make sure that you have downloaded the wallet from a trusted place like their official website and not from a third party link because those can be fake. 2. check what your balance is in the wallet app, it might just be that the wallet gave you a new address after you used the first. 3. contact the unobtanium developers (or the wallet developers) and ask for help after you did 1&2 EDIT: here is their announcement topic: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=527500.0

if you are talking about the exchanger called bter.com then i am so sorry to say this but it is your own fault.
bter is a dead exchanger, after they claimed they were "hacked" it is all down the hill from then on. i don't know why you even trusted then in the first place when they had such a negative point in their history.

... I think if some oil producing nation start accepting bitcoins for exporting oil than Bitcoin price can shoot to $1 million..
nah, this is never going to happen. at least there should first be the mass adoption stage then there should be regulation and governments all over the world to set rules for using bitcoin then after that there is still a small possibility that that country accepts bitcoin as payment. but what randy8777 above me said is the key to ridiculously high prices. if bitcoin enters wall street then there is going to be a massive demand that will shoot the price up.

it depends on your country and the banking system rules. i have never had any problem for amounts as big as 5 or more bitcoin. but here the banking system is a little bit more flexible lol
you should also be concerned about taxes. that is the issue that i mostly see people have problem with authorities.

i look at bitcoin as a currency and i would love it if the day comes that bitcoin is used as a currency just like fiat.
but also until that time comes, i consider bitcoin as more of an investment rather than a currency so i am like 80% invested and will sell and hold 20% of it until bitcoin is mass adopted and i keep 100% of my bitcoins for using to buy goods.

Any ideas or suggestions?
there are multiple options for investing bitcoin. - cloudmining : mostly are scams and a couple remaining are not so profitable - casino bankroll : this is risky but more reliable than the last one with decent profit. - trading : this last one is my favorite. because the money (bitcoin) is in my own hands and i don't rely on anybody else to give me profit. if i can make profit with trading i do and if i lose money it is on me and not because of a scammer.
