401  Economy / Economics / Re: What is your best investment strategy? on: November 11, 2017, 02:27:17 PM
Since I'm new with the concept of Bitcoin and is still learning its structure and concept, I think the best investment strategy with this platform is to be patient and adaptive. Bitcoin can be a lot of work but it leads to advantages that are worthy of your time and hard work. Risks will be involved in many circumstances, and with that you should be ready to take on it any time and be adaptive to its outcome. Patience on the other hand is what I believe to be the key to earning something of great value. With the right amount of time, patience and flexibility, your Bitcoin will multiply abundantly.

It's hard to make money, you can say it's not when other people does the job for you. However, this would not be achieved if it's not because of hard work. Money is the fruit of your labor, no matter how difficult or easy the process may be. I think that in order to gain more, one should learn how to be strategic in doing so. To make more means to have more. Why should you settle for one source when you can have multiple source to increase the amount of your money? All these sources may come from different aspects, may it come from an office job, passive source, gambling, investments, business, you name it. Just do more to have more by being strategic and smart.
403  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you like best about bitcoin? on: November 10, 2017, 02:12:06 PM
There are just so many things to love about Bitcoin. I love how unpredictable Bitcoin is. I love that this unpredictability has challenged us to be risk takers. I love when it's price is high. It's not just high, but for me I feel like it's rate goes above and beyond.  I love how flexible it is. It can be used to buy various goods in a simple click that allows an efficient transaction. I love how progressive it is. Overtime, it will develop to the money of the future due to its development. I love how I have my freedom in it. Above all the things I love about Bitcoin, what I know for sure is I love the security it gives the most.

I honestly don't like your thread with a bad combination or red and yellow while... just its ugly (sorry for the word but no offense). It is not implying a good impression especially now that you're just starting. Just fix that and it would be nice if you just order list instead of making it a paragraph, I mean the green-lettered words.
Bump
Judging my thread based on color combinations and font color of my post and not based on the content is simply non of my concerns as it is your personal opinion and not everybody has the same view as you have on my thread.
If you don't read my post carefully, gou will see that it is more than that. I have point also the content. As they say, first impression is important. Overall, it is sloppy. Don't take this as offensjve but rather a constructive criticism for this to be improved and attract those who want you to hire as a campaign manager.

About the content, I suggest you to be more specific. How many participants can you handle? You can't just let them assume that since you don't said anything about that means you can handle any amount of participants. You should state it as a matter of fact. Try to look at the threads of other campaign manager and you'll get what I'm saying. Just be specific. It would be nice to display it in a list like this:
  • example
  • example

P.S. Try to put some effort since it reflects as how they will perceive you. Be straightforward.

Give Harlot a break. He actually has a goal in his advertisement and that is to provide good and reliable service. His graphics alone should not be the sole basis of what he can do. Did you try to check the quality of his posts aside from what is written here? Have you seen how many campaigns he has been part of? I guess your advice worked with him being straightforward, as his banner is now in list form. However before you criticize him with his "sloppy" grammar, you might want to check yours first. Stick to a single point of view and make sure that your tenses match accordingly. I know I am new here and I hope you don't take this offensively, but rather constructive. Peace!  Wink
Have you read my post? Rather have you comprehend it? No. I didn't point out his "sloppy" grammar or what. I'm trying to say is to put more effort since it will reflect who he is and what he is. You basically just a brainless newbie that pretending you have some construtive feedback to give which in fact you don't take time to understand what I'm saying. He should be specific which will reflect how straightforward he is. Have you heard the phrase: how a person speaks and writes reflects his personality and character.

As you see, I have not seen a single campaign yet added to his portfolio. As long as there is no campaign added there then that proves my point.

Oh, I am sorry. I apologize if I was not able to fully comprehend what you were trying to say. Maybe I should have just read pass through the misspelled words, bad grammar, and lack of usage of the correct punctuation marks so that I did not have the "wrong" idea with what you wrote.  Don't worry, next time I'll read and read and read until I understand.  

Here's a quick fact for you: after attending numerous recognition rites and honor assemblies in my life, this is actually the first time I received a recognition for being a "brainless newbie". I don't think it's in any way similar or even close with what I am often awarded with, but nonetheless if this is what "constructive" is for you, then I have nothing more to say. Smiley
405  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do Banks fear cryptocurrency on: November 10, 2017, 11:06:59 AM
Banks are not scared of crypto currencies, they are only trying to keep safe their country's currency.
Instead of crypto currencies to make banks disappear, they will work together to achieve one aim.

I love the optimism of this post; positivity is shown which I think is a side that is often ignored by many. When a warning is given, many would think that one may want to simply ask those who are involved or may be involved to be careful about a certain situation that may lead to disadvantages. On the other hand, the party that was issued the warning about would think that they are threatened by them. One thing they always miss out is how these two aspects can work together to actually function as a unit for a better future. Bank's would have their reasons for issuing a warning about Bitcoins. What we don't know is that maybe in the future, banks would start storing Bitcoins or have banks ffiliated with Bitcoin transactions. Let's try to see the good in everything, maybe now people won't see a relationship with bank and Bitcoin but naybe the future is bright for them.
406  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: do i have to pay tax on bitcoins ? on: November 10, 2017, 01:04:04 AM
Here in the Philippines, the government does not hold any control over Bitcoin which is why it is not taxable. The wallet that I also use does not have a transaction fee when I want to send Bitcoin to someone who has the same wallet. When I want it converted to fiat however, a minimal fee applies but I noticed that it is just this certain bank that requires that fee. Other banks that is in partnership with the app does not have any transaction fee for withdrawing.

408  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: how can i withdraw btc for cash on: November 09, 2017, 12:19:06 PM
There are various ways on how you can convert your Bitcoin to cash. I think the most secure way of doing so is downloading a dependable and flexible wallet to store your Bitcoin in. I'm from the Philippines and I use an app called "coins", wherein I can select a certain amount I wish to withdraw and then have that amount converted from Bitcoin to Peso, which will then be wired to my debit card. It will only take a few hours of for it to process then you can withdraw it as soon as you can. Based on my experience, there is only one bank that has a transaction fee when using this app to convert to fiat. Other banks are connected with the app and does transactions for free. I knew the app was secured since they had a lot of verification processes without being invasive while assuring security.
409  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin can not replace fiat on: November 09, 2017, 09:23:17 AM
It will be hard to convert all the current existing fiat in the world with Bitcoin at a snap. People would not easily be able to adapt to its structure and system, which is why you can say that Bitcoin can not replace fiat. Also, the fact that everyone has no or minimal access towards Bitcoin is also a disadvantage to this circumstance. What will they use to pay if fiat was exchanged and they have no idea what Bitcoin is about? However, we all know how much the world has evolved over time with regards to the digital and virtual aspect. If a time will come that Bitcoin will rule over fiat then hopefully everybody has access and knowledge towards this platform.
410  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Saving Bitcoins for your Children. on: November 09, 2017, 02:39:46 AM
I made a paper wallet for my son and I deposit a smaller amount of Bitcoins there every month. I kept it in a secret place that only me and another person knows.


This is actually a great idea. When I start earning enough Bitcoins, I would probably put a portion of it in another wallet  for the future or for my kids, just like how you did. With regards to the access to the wallet, maybe I'll have a family member or a lawyer to keep a hold of it until my child is right of age. Maybe there would come a time that wallets for family are made where you get connected to each other so you could easily wire in the Bitcoins to each of their respective accounts, who knows.
411  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: How blockchain is changing the automobile industry on: November 08, 2017, 01:59:42 PM
An interesting read on how blockchain reshapes the $1.8 trillion auto market. https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/carfix-reinventing-the-auto-industry_us_5a01fb2fe4b0b422a3c5ccec
The role of the blockchain is something that can be used throughout the entire lifecycle of auto ownership, from purchase to liquidation. When you buy a car, your title, bank loan, and your insurance can all be associated with the blockchain, confirmed and validated. The main idea is that by using blockchain, all the critical elements of a car history are confirmed and traceable: ownership rights, loans, maintenance works, changed parts, etc.

With this statement, you will automatically know how efficient and promising this company will be. What's more interesting is that even though they haven't fully launched the project, you will already feel their transparency and that they are a genuine company who has a goal of giving everything your car what it deserves. In the automobile industry, it is hard to find partners who would be honest with everything that they do with your car, it's also hard to find someone who is trustworthy. With this, you will be secured for the entire lifetime of your car and I think that is totally a great deal!
412  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How long bitcoin will survive ? on: November 08, 2017, 11:05:00 AM
There is this uncertainty when it comes to determining how long Bitcoin can survive, however with all the progress it has made over the past few years and how technology and the virtual world has continually evolved, I think Bitcoin will be here for a longer time than most of us expects it to be. As most people would say, Bitcoin is the currency of the new era. As the world continues to develop towards a more technological and innovative future, Bitcoin will be there to aid its users. It's the challenge of obtaining Bitcoin, no matter how volatile it can be, that keeps the people from using this platform and that's what will make it survive over time. 
413  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What are your plans with your Bitcoin? on: November 08, 2017, 09:00:28 AM
I will never convert my Bitcoin into fiat again, because it makes no sense at all. Bitcoin is sound money, not subject to centralized control and inflationary devaluation. Fiat money is a debt-based scam, fully exposed to the lunacy of monetary policy by central banks and fully exposed to capital restrictions by governmental control freaks. So, Bitcoin is simply a vastly superior form money. Anyone converting Bitcoin to fiat is out of his/her mind.

I hold my Bitcoin to spend them on my future necessities. I really hope that there will be an increasing number of businesses that will accept Bitcoin directly - which means without intermediary fiat conversion. That would be the precondition for me to pay with Bitcoin.

ya.ya.yo!

Point taken. You will definitely defeat the purpose of Bitcoin if you solely earn it just to convert it to fiat. However, I understand why some people choose to convert their Bitcoin to their local currencies as some countries may not have fully accepted Bitcoin as a means of payment. Bitcoin may be well known in some countries, but in others it is just starting to develop and be accepted. So basically, it does not have value that it owns in certain places. As I see it, in the future people will regret converting their Bitcoin to fiat, but for now it may help them get through their everyday lives if they do so.
414  Economy / Economics / Re: Why the world really needs virtual currencies on: November 08, 2017, 08:19:22 AM
The world needs alternative currencies because the current financial system has ceased to be economically justified and turned into a political one. It promotes unfair distribution of income and does not allow itself to someone who deserves decent pay.

This is exactly why Bitcoin is needed in the world. We should not be dependent on fiat alone since it has been centralized by the government; which means that certain limits are established and what you gain cannot sufficiently supply your everyday needs due to certain matters. With Bitcoin, we could have an aid to our regular income and we definitely have financial freedom through this platform. We get what we work hard for in full, unlike in the real world were taxes and other fees are deducted.
415  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin or gold? on: November 08, 2017, 05:00:45 AM
If you had to convert all your wealth to either Bitcoin or gold and keep it there for 10 years, which would you choose? Keep in mind the fact that Bitcoin has only been around for 5 years, and could be fundamentally different in any number of ways in 10 years.

Bitcoin. Here is why

Let us go back 110 years to say 1904 and ask the following question: If you had to convert all your wealth to either horseless carriages (otherwise known as automobiles) or horses and keep it there for 10 years, which would you choose? Keep in mind the fact that horseless carriages have only been around for 5 years, and could be fundamentally different in any number of ways in 10 years.

By the way humans had been using horses as a primary form of transportation for millennia, yet in a period of 50 years between 1900 and 1950 they virtually vanished form the transportation scene. Will Bitcoin do the same to gold?

This scenario is the perfect example on why you should choose Bitcoin than Gold. Bitcoin is new, progressive, innovative, and will definitely (someday) be the money of the future; because the world has been evolving in the technological department and has this dependency on the internet. However, I think I would have to do both. Gold is timeless and it shares somehow a same scenario with Bitcoin. It is preciously limited to which I think its value would be worth. I get to have a win-win situation as I get to own things that gradually increases in value over time.
416  Economy / Economics / Re: Is bitcoin dead? on: November 07, 2017, 02:34:03 PM
This thread was made 2 years ago and after some time has passed, I believe that Bitcoin has come through and is now back to establishing a dignified stature. Bitcoin is far from dead. It may experience certain phases that may be considered a gradual downfall, but this currency will always have a way for a great comeback. The volatility of Bitcoin is a given fact, however the state it is in brought by the fluctuations in rates is only temporary. With Bitcoin, patience is truly a virtue and you need this in order  to stay alive in this platform. If at one point you think Bitcoin is dead, wait until it has risen, it will surely bring a great impact.

This project is something to be very proud of since it promotes innovative actions and efficient services to cater to one of the most essential object almost every human being uses: cars. Automobiles are very important in our everyday lives as we all are dependent on it in transporting us from one place to another in the shortest time possible. With this advocacy, the cars are given a priority. With just one system, everything there is to know or actions to partake in relation with your car can be obtained and done with just one transaction. Kudos to the great minds behind this project!
418  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin transaction fees fair? on: November 06, 2017, 12:34:03 PM
Volatility comes with price. I think that there are some issues with the transaction fee having a direct relationship with the rate of Bitcoin, however there's a part of me that also agrees that this kind of system is just and fair. The transaction fee is highly dependent on the network you are involved with. Given that scenario, the amount of your transaction fee is not solely based on the amount of Bitcoin you want to send, trade, or convert. There are some networks that offer free transaction fees when sending Bitcoin (i.e. transactions done with the same wallet to send Bitcoin). There are also some systems that charges a greater amount of transaction fee rather than to what will be sent. I believe that these rules are established in order to maintain the value of Bitcoin. Maybe if this would be improved, a certain or fixed percentage of the Bitcoin that is to be wired should be the amount of transaction fee to be paid to establish a centralized system (i.e. no matter the amount of Bitcoin you want to transfer, a 10% transaction fee should be charged on you), no matter what network is involved. If this was considered then I think a consensus for everyone would be established.
419  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is holding bitcoin Greedy? on: November 06, 2017, 09:32:29 AM
I don't think that holding on to Bitcoin for a long span of time can be considered greedy. Greedy is such a severe term to describe being smart or strategic. Holding on to something that you've worked hard for and earned rightfully should not be immediately coined as greedy. There's a reason why some people would rather hold on to it rather than put it's current state at risk. I believe that these people are also aware of the consequences it may result to if the desired results are not met from keeping it that long. Everybody has their own way of handling things, and I think as long as others are not affected by your decisions to hold on your Bitcoin for too long, then you are not being greedy but rather clever with the way you are handling it.
420  Economy / Economics / Re: bitcoin benefit of saving for a long time? on: November 06, 2017, 06:58:29 AM
Bitcoin is naturally designed to be a deflationary currency, it's the same as any normal investment in that people buy it in the expectation of the price rising so they hold it until it does (or trade it, if they're clever/brave enough to handle the volatile market).

I agree. The volatility of Bitcoin can be so unpredictable that is why you have to wait for the right moment to sell, trade, or even have it converted to fiat. Holding on to it for a long time may bring so much benefits. It will test your patience and decision making as to how you can take risks. The strategy involved in doing so can be compared to the usual investments that most people are into or are familiar with.
