Our country just recently held a seminar introducing bitcoin in our country. The said seminar were facilitated
by bitcoin experts and government officials in pursuit of using bitcoin as another form of payment and regulation of it as well.

Your points are very clear and well articulated. That's some of the basic truths in ICOs that are still unknown to some persons, especially the newbies. But on the other hand, when you get a good ICO to invest in, it is always a thing of joy. Especially projects that have a prototype of their working product and those ones promising things that are so abstract.

I agree on that everyone of us really think about the future. And I think we must think about the future and do some action today in preparation of the near future . Maybe the correct used of today is the best preparation of the near future that is why we are now doing things that is really productive to gain huge amount of profit  for the near future, in short we are all care about the future.

Investing is good, but when deciding to undergo into something you really don't know, well it is such a beating of your head. It is better to have a full of knowledge about it. I suggested you to do some research about many topics regarding to this. Take note. Regret is always in the end. Having assurance is much better. This is money involve so it's good to you to be careful in making your decision.   

Yes but currently that is the issue, there is a chance for that to happen but it is not a sure thing, I do not know how things are in your country but in my country it can be difficult to find a job, if you get fired or you quit it is  not rare to be looking for a job for some months that is why most people never quit their jobs unless they already got one locked down elsewhere.

after buying bitcoin I started to be a little patient for some time and hold it because I hope that the price will go up and I will get a good profit but it takes a lot of patience to get satisfactory results

No not at all it is not good to even think about selling or to get panic your bitcoin, there is no need to panic or specially at this time when price is low and it is at steers to get high, as we can see gradually it is increasing now, if you notice the present condition of bitcoin we will find bitcoin price going high every day. It is not the permanent drop as bitcoin has the potential to overcome this price fall in few months.

I am sure bitcoin will get its old position like it had at the end of 2017 and price will cross 30k dollars very soon, so have patience and never think to sell it even if the price is getting low, because it use to increase and decrease all the time try to buy more when you see price is low.

This is NOT a good idea. I personally would be thankful if another member sees me worthy of a merit. But suggesting for campaign managers to give out merits to their participants is inappropriate. Once campaign managers starts giving out merits to participants, every other participant will surely ask or even demand that they be given merits as well. Why? Because they would see it to be bias and unfair. Their argument would be, "Hey! I’m also promoting the
same project! Why shouldn’t I get a merit?!" Now this will just be a big headache for the manager considering the # of participants that will be bugging him for merits. Also, do take note that asking or demanding for merits will most probably be counted as begging for merits which many of the high ranking members easily gets annoyed with. Now anyone can be tagged for doing this. Merit begging is a big no no!  

There are many people that can hold bitcoin for more than 3 years and I'm also one of them. I can't promise that holding the original amount since the beginning will remain but I'm doing my best to add when I have spare money and when I'm about to cash it out, I'm also returning it if there's a chance. I'm a long term holder so this is an easy decision.

I don't think I can fault anyone with a dream from pursuing their dream, but to me most pf these guys to want to be in control and incharge of the fiancing but it is not their fault if people keep giving out their money at will to any project without thinking twice if the project can duely delivere

[/Since crypto currency is decentralized there is no control to create a coin as long as the purpose is to acquire fund to produce a good functional product that would enhance the living standard of mankind and aside from that creating currency will also fave the way of stopping un even distribution of wealth because it make everyone to participate if they wanted. But for those unscropolous people they use to acquire money as a scam. These should be role of the government how to finalized this kind people.

In some cases it helps to minimize the corruption. And it all based to the people who are valuing the money. We need to to know how important money and used it in a good way of living . Dont just try to used for illegal thing or some politician who used ot for corruption dont do the same thing to make our world better.

I quite agree with this, in fact before donating in some charity institutions why won't you start first by giving food for the homeless. I have spread some knowledge of bitcoin and some cryptocurrencies to my family and close friends and I really feel like it is my responsibility to tell them so in a way I am starting to help make the country productive. Once you get wealthy with cryptos or through digital currencies it is your social responsibility to spread the word to those who are interested and are willing to be successful in life.

Yeah you got it mate working product really matter at all when you are investing an ICO with good working product even if it is green or red that ICO will surely prosper .when you are investing ICO with working product it seem that you are involved in the capitalization of the product once the product will in into the market and will get profit 30% of it will go back to the ICO holder and make jt more valuable .

If you are not a trader and you are not sure of the position to ride with the flow, then you are better off holding. So many people in the past have ridden with the flow of bitcoin not even passing $1000 and they ended up buying at the peak while waiting for the $1000 they never ended up seeing. If you cannot follow trend, then you should not bother yourself trying to gamble your position in the market. Best to stick with long term position.

it is true but not application in some coins. you need also to know which coin you need to buy . the flow of the prices of that coins in previous weeks or days. you all need to do that. But it is good to buy when in red because it will go up again soon.

I think we've gone too far with some countries thinking they are better than other countries because of their wealth, before we can all unite on a financial front we need to eliminate many of the things that keep us apart, for example how can we have so many people starving and dying in parts of the world while the rest of the world sits by and allows it to happen.

I know it's exciting to see someone put a Tesla into space but if we could give every human an equal footing wouldn't that be more exciting?

As basic as this example is, it is just one of the things that need to be sorted out before we can unite globally.

Although, maybe if everyone did operate with one currency then we could help these countries out as there would no longer be pressure on those countries with more wealth to put more into these situations as we would all be on the same level.

Who knows, but for us to work on anything at a global level there needs to be drastic changes to the way we operate and think, perhaps bitcoin and cryptocurrency is the start of this.

That's their only possible tool against bitcoin, together with banks, governments can ban the access to exchanges where people can buy/sell bitcoins. This is a kind of 'last chance' for them in my opinion, first governments will try to tax the profit coming from bitcoin related transactions. If they can't identify the tax payers effectively, then they can force exchanges to verify the users and share their data to the national tax authorities. If everything goes wrong, they can freeze the account of the exchanges to prevent them using fiat.
Despite of the above mentioned things, authorities cannot stop cashing out from bitcoin to fiat but they can make it to be a real pain and risky (using localbitcoins only and meet with the seller/buyer in shady environment... etc...) This is the situation where the Lightning network cannot solve the situation (if they ban bitcoin totally, but I don't expect this, as governments can have huge incomes from taxes in connection with bitcoin, so it's not their interest to stop taxing and just ban the whole thing).

I know that most of us are now depending to the bitcoin because bitcoin became our sources of income. I am using the 60% of the money that I earned from the bitcoin to pay all of my liabilities and also my daily expenses. I am using the other 40% of the money to improve my business.

Bitcoin concept is really great. That is why it's community continues to grow. But if we are going to use Bitcoin as a normal payment system today, I guess it wouldn't be effective and efficient now. Sending money instantly is one of the important things we need today. That is why technology is getting advance every day. In the case of Bitcoin's network today, I think we cannot achieve that instantly sending and receiving. So It depends on how the developer team will fix and improve the technical issues of Bitcoin. The future of Bitcoin lies on its platform itself. If it can possibly achieve what its objective, then many will use it.

I think volatile is good if we are daily trader. Depending on our trading style. But I am prefer hold for long on my investment so I am not distracted with high volatile
