why is it ok for a group of people calling themselves the government to force everyone to buy their services?
if enough armed people refused to pay and told the government to go fuck itself there is nothing they could do.

I believe that people agree to pay taxes because it is said to be our obligation. If we disagree with it, we can't still do anything against it because we might face different consequences.  The government put taxes in every products the we consume no matter what our financial status is. As a member of the society we are obligue to pay taxes.
I think every one of us hesitate to pay taxes but we have nothing to do on refusing it because it is a government mandated for it help build our economy, even on the smallest goods that we have bought then it have tax, if i have to choose to pay taxes or not then i'd rather not to pay but what i have said we cant change the fact about taxes, only government can do control about it.
402  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why compare BTC to USD? on: February 20, 2018, 11:18:45 AM
When people talk about Bitcoin price, they usually refer to its price expressed in dollars. I really don't understand why...

US Dollar is going down in price, US economy is collapsing. There are many other countries which has more Bitcoin users, like Russia, China, Japan, Philippines and the whole Eurozone. Even ICOs are forbidden in the USA. It's not a so Bitcoin-friendly country, its national currency is not so strong. So why price Bitcoin in $?

There could be many other more appropriate currencies like EUR, CNY or RUB...

Compared to other fiat currency, by far on record, US Dollars have been the most stable currency and globally regarded fiat currency. Since then, financial analysts have used Dollars to value a lot of things including crude oil. It's easy to value bitcoins when gauged to dollars.
Yes, it easy to track when both most popular currency have been value for its reference. Dollar is the most popular real currency and Bitcoin too in crypto currency then the fact that on this day still there are few establishment accept bitcoin as medium of exchange therefore every individual must convert it into real money regardless of what currency.
403  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why kyc is even required? on: February 20, 2018, 09:19:23 AM
I bet all will require KYC in the future for certain amounts, as it happens with exchanges, and the same way you can’t have an unverified pre-paid bitcoin card above certain (ridiculous) limits.
KYC is the process of knowing the identity of such particular user that is why they required national identification of their requirements and that is to control the illegal activities in bitcoin, i think that is a move from government to control any money laundering or track bitcoin activities of a particular person and that is to avoid such crime in using bitcoin.
404  Economy / Economics / Re: Cashless society on: February 19, 2018, 09:14:44 PM
I don't think that cash will completely be replaced with cryptocurrencies in future simply because crypto don't work offline. Crypto is mainly for the educated class who know how to use Internet and can't be used by everyone so i don't think cashless society is possible.
But cashless doesnt only mean crypto. Visa cards, credit/debit cards and cheques are also cashless but you are still right visa cards are still electronic cards and with out internet and electricity we cannot used them. In daily and easy transactions like dropping off the kiosk for a box of milk, crypto will not be advisable.
Yes, but the world is evolving into its peak for digital technology and we are fast in technological innovation. It doesnt signifies that crypto is only for the knowledgeable and computer literate individual because time will come that we are going to be a cashless society.
405  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Any tricks available in gambling to won the bet? on: February 18, 2018, 01:38:41 PM
Yes there are tricks.Here's some that i personally experience when i playing gambling.

1. Scout as possible search for the nice team,stats and condition of the player.
2. Prepare your self when you gamble don't be greedy,stick to the plan and strategy, bet low so that it will not hurt you if you lose.
3. Stay what game or played that you have.If your playing basketball then focus on that.
I don' think these are the tricks to win in gambling. Huh

You are telling some strategies to cut out the losses for the OP,but he is asking any available trick to win a game.Obviously there is no perfect trick available to win in gambling.

I agree! There is no shortcut to win and there is no assurance that the trick he wants will work out. That's why it's called gambling because you will gamble your money without any assurance of winning.
Yes that is it, gambling is all about to win and to lose and we have no control to win the game. Winning cannot be done through tricks and even experienced because it was design to have profit for the gambling bankers and not for the bettors.
406  Economy / Economics / Re: Why people scam on: February 18, 2018, 10:12:00 AM
Everybody has target in life to achieve those goals some people do bad things to get easy money that is why bitcoin reputation to others become negative and they think all bitcoin users is a scammer because of those people devoured by greediness.
Yes, because money drives for most people's ambition and they will do everything to come with it, others tend to do an easy thing to have money without spending an extra effort and that is to scam others and due to bitcoin popularity there are also many people that want an easy money so they grab on it, not knowing they are already a victim of scam.
407  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Benefits from Gambling on: February 18, 2018, 05:18:42 AM
Those people play gambling are fun they can get extra benefit if gets the winning bets
Because people play gambling for fun the benefits for them are to enjoy the moment while playing specially the rich people not making money in the gambling.
Certainly the only benefits of gambling is for having fun and enjoying the excitement in every round of a game but aside from that like earning profit is maybe hard to achieve because to win the game is not within our control therefore in the long run the win and lose moment is always alternating so profit far to happen.
408  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: do you day trade or prefer a long term hold? on: February 18, 2018, 02:45:59 AM
So I'm slowly going into crypto and I want to know if any of you trade altcoins daily, or you prefer to hold it for long term? What do you think it's better and why?

Thanks

If I see opportunity and I have enough time to monitor the market, I do day trades. But only a portion of my cap I use for day trades. More than half of it I hold for med-long term investment.
I have not yet do a day trading since i always participate on bounty campaign and usually i hold my reward token for atleast 3 months hoping for a any value hike of a particular token but still im gaining profit for it. As what i see in day trading i think it is more profitable but only we need to have a full time on the online activity.
409  Economy / Economics / Re: Tell me a secret: any way to earn 0.1 BTC per week? on: February 17, 2018, 05:04:23 AM
Its possible to earn 0.1BTC per week, you can get by trading but you should know if you hope can earn much of money, there is a risk for you lose much money too. You need huge capital for it.
Yes, maybe that is possible since all of us here has the same goal to earn that amount or greater but the question is how? then maybe the answer of that is really depends on you, your skills, strategy and dedication towards your goal on crypto world will give you what you want because there is no such easy money without spending an effort for it, and one thing i am pretty sure that there is a big opportunity to earn big on crypto world and that will start and begins with you.
410  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do people want Bitcoin? on: February 16, 2018, 09:38:58 AM
For me people want bitcoin because they want to be financially stable like everyone else who started doing different cryptocurrencies. They want to earn even in the simplest way. Not only that but to people who are knowledgeable about bitcoin they know the advantages they are going to get when they start using it. We all know that the users of bitcoin is being benefited by these advantages.
Yes, mostly people who work for bitcoin has the same purpose and goals and this all to have financial improvement to be rich or more richer, because the facts about life is all about money as the world is surely run through money. money makes every people busy to used in daily expenses.


411  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: what to do if bitcoin decreases? on: February 14, 2018, 03:34:55 PM
it is time to buy more bitcoin for me because the price of the bitcoin was cheap and also i believe that the bitcoin will be 1 million dollar each bitcoin so i prefer to hold it and then sell it once it reaches it
If bitcoin value decreases then just stay cool and relax and don't be panic for it will be back on its track again. Positive minds brings positive result, but actually i believe in bitcoin because this not the first time that it reaches its value as what it have for today, and there are still many bitcoin believers that grabbing the opportunity to buy more bitcoin for the preparation of the awakening of the bitcoin.
412  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Bitcoin is better than Cash. on: February 14, 2018, 02:46:54 PM
What are the reasons, why people use Cash or Credit Cards / ATM / Banks?

Look at the benefits of bitcoin.

* Works online 100%, 100%transparent for private and commercial use. Total control of private or public money for it's holder or holders, investors, governments etc.
* As It's works online there no need of expensive steel safes or bank deposits to keep your money safe. Any password or time code can be used.
* No fees. Unlike cash, hasn't 2%-3% of inflation every single year.
* Accepted for Food Shopping & Micro payments via electronic card.
* 0 confermations time, with introduction of "instant pay" function.
* 0 exchange risks in use of proper securities and competent insurance.
* any entrepreneurs is able to understanding of the value of payment.
* No need for pay terminal for small businesses. For small entrepreneurs it's a high expense of 70 bucks every month.
* Theoretically it's would not be needed to have an expensive licensed cash register, for small entrepreneurs, as every transaction is totally transparent. So cases of black money flow would be easily found and proven.
* Banking and gambling. No need of any verification for CFD,Stock,Currency or gambling services.



Most of what you said is true and I really like what bitcoin is giving  its users, but the one that you said (no fees), trading sites are just overflowing with fees, and last december is the highest transfer fee that I have ever seen, traders are actually shoked by the fast increasing rates of fees, because along with the increase of butcoins value, is the increase in rate of transfer fees.
Well, bitcoin is better than cash in terms of profit that we get in a short period of time but still i cannot used it out without the real money because the fact is that there are still few establishment that accepts bitcoin directly as payment for goods and services for every purchase. Real money is the outside world for the crypto currency as we all convert it into our real local money in order to use it in our daily expenses. But still time awaits for the full execution of digital currency maybe not now but in the next generations.
413  Economy / Economics / Re: what is the worst thing did you did in crypto world? on: February 14, 2018, 01:29:05 PM
i sold my NEO bag around 43$. my worst case ever i did because 2018 will be the NEO momentum .
pls give your experience also.....
 Huh Huh Huh Huh Huh Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes
the worst experience that i ever do in my cryptoworld life is that when btc is like a hundred dollars i sell it immediately because i was thinking that time that iv'e already taken profits and today i regret it because the price was too high.

it seems the same as my experience. 2013 ago I had 25 BTC from mining and faucet I collected that much Bitcoin for a year more as my part-time job. but I sold all the bitcoin I had for $ 100 $ at that time. if I hold all these coins up to now I think I will be able to buy a ferari  Cheesy and another one I lost 200 ETH on gambling  Cry I felt that ETH was worthless just like Waves right now  Tongue
I also have that experienced but i don't consider it as worst because it gives me some lesson that i need to remember for the goodness in this crypto world, that is when i first receive my first bounty reward token and due to my excitement i sold it with only little amount and 1 month later the coin hit its highest value, so start feeling regret but now no more because there are still more opportunity coming from crypto.
414  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think you are a gambling expert? on: February 14, 2018, 06:29:15 AM
Gambling expert is not the person who win many times in gambling of particular game.It's may be there imagination.
Upto me the gambling expert is the person who can able to control after the loss.They should not continue to play after the loss to get back the lost money.

Precisely. And there's no gambling expert exist because if there is then he will always win because he already knew everything. But rather a experienced gambler exist as he uses his experience to avoid unnecessary losses and emotions.

There is nothing like a gambling expert, I have seen so many of the so called experts loosing out in stupid ways, rather than being called a expert I would like a gambler to focus on understanding its risk, its gain. Many times I have seen people are having excellent hands then, they believe they have mastered it, and next time they loose double of what they make. People there're no experts, just be logical and reasonable when you're playing and ahead and you're good.
Yes, gambling cannot be mastered or even experienced can't make you an expert because there is only two fact about gambling its either to win and to lose without our control, prolonged experience in gambling have make you a lot of moment in losing than winning as they say that gambling's reality is to win a little and lose a lot. All i refer is the online gambling because the system was design to produce profit and not to lose.
415  Economy / Economics / Re: Is Bitcoin Money or Currency on: February 13, 2018, 11:59:40 PM
Bitcoin is both currency and money for me or in my opinion because some people use it to buy things which is what money is used for and sometimes a currency; because people usually refer bitcoin as a monetary system wherein people have to convert bitcoin to a local currency depending on which country they live in to pay bills. But there are other countries who are accepting bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies as payment, so for me it is both a currency and money.
Yes, i agree bitcoin is a digital currency or virtual currency circulated by means of internet and at the same time it is money because we can use it as a medium of exchange to purchase some goods and services and above all it is all convertible into our real local money.
416  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do not invest in bitcoin if you don't know anything about it on: February 13, 2018, 10:23:12 PM
I did try putting hard earned money into it and now still awaiting its recovery! All these happen because I didn't get enough info. But the best bet is to earn the bitcoin here via digital marketing then you could use the money earned to reinvest into other ICOs.
That is why we should familiarize first all the way points in crypto world and its strategy prior investing so that our asset will not be compromise and gone for nothing, as there is no such easy thing in earning money all of it needs a tricky way and good skill prior having it. Therefore plan everything and make alternative strategy.
417  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambling ends on: February 13, 2018, 09:13:21 PM
can this world stop in gambling?
someone who like to gamble hard to escape from the gambling trap. almost like a drug addict. Even after they went bankrupt still struggling to gamble by borrowing money for gambling. Actually what do they expect?

There is no reason to stop. There are people who do get addicted and can't stop themselves. But the majority of people are pretty well-balanced when it comes to gambling and playing casino games. The best is to seek help if you are addicted.

Actually there is, you are just ignoring that reason because you are thinking that you could win the jackpot if you are not going to give up playin gambling, which is wrong. There is a lot of possibilities where you could end when you not stop playing gambling even though you are losing, the worst of them is you could get broke, you have lost all the money that you have just because of that single thought that you have, that you could really win gambling.
it's easy to say but definitely hard to do because if you try to control yourself in a way that your mind doesn't want it to then it will be definitely hard. you would really end up the way you don't want to. People can expect with addicts that they are not going to stop even in the long run.
Gambling is hard to end because in todays generation its already a part of our life and that is the norm pastimes and source of entertainment for everyone of us. Maybe there are many left becauase they will realize something not good but still there are many start to involve, so everyone wil goesby and enter that activity that is why it is very hard to end gambling.

I can only tell you to improve your rank to min Jr.Member to be eligible for some rewarding tasks.

Study and acquire all necessary skills and strategy with time dedication to meet your goals of earning big in a crypto world.
419  Economy / Economics / Re: Cashless society on: February 13, 2018, 07:50:26 AM
Cashless society is very hard to implement.It was already tried in india and it failed to deliver the expected results.Instead,it ruined the indian economy and its GDP rate fell from 7% to 6.1%.There are still lots of illiterate people who don't know about digital transactions and also internet is needed to make digital  transactions.
Yes, it is very hard to implement for now because our world is not yet an internet of all things, there are still many society that are not exposed in digital technology
but we all know that we already started that in our society like ATM card, debit card and credit card and that is the basic system of cashless operation and there are many establishment adopted on it. Department stores, restaurants and even gasoline station are already have that system but we can't deny the fact that not all of us can used that system because we are not the same levels on the society from where we live.
