No need to invest in apple using bitcoins. Cash out your bitcoins and buy from any online trading site. And you avoid your terrible fees!
BTW, apple is doing fine overall. Even if sales slow down, they have enough cash to buy the next great thing(s).

The investors would have to be in the wine industry, would they not? I can't just go reselling wine without first jumping through a lot of hurdles.
Also, I am from the U.S. I would imagine that shipping wine to me would eat up any profits, and it would require even more hurdles to jump.
If you are going to start with planting the vines, that will take at least 5 years for the yields to mature. Add a couple more years to produce the right vintage. This sounds like a long-term investment to me.
Why are you looking for investors on a bitcoin site and not a wine site?
I'm not trying to knock your idea down, I am just thinking like a potential investor. I hope your business plan accounts for questions like these.
Good luck!

Good idea for a site name! http://www.worthofweb.com/website-value/www.bitcoinwallet.id/ values your site at less than $100, and you're asking for more than twice as many bitcoins. How do you explain your asking price? Also, this is in the auctions section, and you have a fixed price. Is this the right section of the forum for this post? Good luck with your business. |

If so many people have gotten scammed by OP, why isn't his trust all red colored?

I'm interested, but I have a few questions:
-How much of your own money are you putting into it?
-How do you plan on overcoming all the legal red tape. Yes, you plan on working with licensed people in the pharmaceutical industry, but in terms of brokering/selling, do you have the proper license to sell the pharmaceuticals?
-If you're getting all of these pros together to make cheap Xanax and undercut the competition, why hasn't anybody else done it yet?
-Can you explain the 300% in 2 months? Won't it take you a few months to just get off the ground?
If you want to give me your full identity and business plan, then yes, I will look it over.
Thanks!

I thought of a few more, and this goes for buyers as well as sellers:
- Don't give your cell phone to your trading partner, even if he asks, until he has built up trust. With that info alone, he could pull some social engineering (con) and take over your phone account, your email account, and even your exchange accounts. I know of at least 2 people who have had that done to them. Sometimes it takes a trade or 2 to build up the trust, and even then, you may not want to give out any of your personal info.
- Which leads to another point: make sure you have 2fa on (nearly) EVERYTHING! Yes, it can be a pita but do it at least for your email account that is tied to any banks, exchanges, and obviously, any bank, exchange, wallet and anything else of value.
-If you do give your cell phone, and you get a text, if it includes a link, use extreme caution. It could have malware in it.
-Don't use whatsapp to talk or even text with your trader. He could send a phishing link or invitation and hack your phone/computer. Other apps to avoid: skype, teamviewer, etc. Where there is an app, behind the scenes is a hacker. Don't be tempted to make trade easier by using an app like skype to arrange a meeting.
That's all I can think of for now!

There are a lot of online sites that accept bitcoin as payment. I googled and got this site: http://www.bitcoinvalues.net/who-accepts-bitcoins-payment-companies-stores-take-bitcoins.htmlThe list is outdated though. (I looked at other sites and they are all outdated.) For example, Microsoft stopped accepting bitcoin. But many of the companies on the list still do: overstock, gyft, and Tiger Direct accept bitcoins. And, if you're in the need for a new car, Tesla accepts bitcoins  |

For first time buyers, I would avoid any online trade. There is so much that can go wrong.
A lot of people say to avoid localbitcoins because it is too expensive.
While I agree that you won't get the best rate, I think it is a good starting point. The reasons include: you can meet someone in person, which, if you meet in public, and you use common sense (like dealing with an established trader), you should be ok. Also, you may be able to find a trader who will allow for small trades.
Buying btc from an exchange can be expensive too. Although the rates may be lower, you will probably be paying bank transfer fees that can wipe out any savings you would get.
Most of the exchanges also require you to hand over so much personal info, that reduce the anonymity. Some people factor that in as an "expense" not worth paying for.
I would start off with a local trade, whether it be from localbitcoins, paxful, or from someone advertising elsewhere on the web. LBC has a good escrow so you can reduce your risk of getting scammed. Even if you don't use escrow with a local trade, at least you can agree face-to-face that when you hand over the $, the seller is going to send it to your wallet. Check the blockchain to see if confirmations go thru.
Deal only with reputable traders!

So my Latino friends are tough to get in touch with. They view the concept of time differently than from where I am in the U.S.
I am supposed to have a skype with one of my friends in Nicaragua Thursday (tomorrow for me). I hopefully will have answers for all of those who have inquired.
Also, I won't be going there until June or July, so if you have any older phones and you don't need an answer asap, please keep posting! I plan on bringing as many phones with me as I can.
Thanks!

I think it looks really good!
Here in the U.S., the biggest challenge you will find is cheap versions of that coming from Asia or south/central America. And even though they might not be as nice, they are so inexpensive cheap.
I would pay a couple of dollars for it.
I think you will have luck if you sell them locally. Also, if you sold them on this site, if you had more color options, that would help.
For example, if you made wrist bands with college school colors (example: Syracuse = orange) or even professional sports colors, you might find a niche.
Also, if you made them with colors representing other popular subcultures, like maybe a popular video game, or colors of a flag, etc. it would add a personal touch.
You could market to online web communities that are associated with team/country/etc. colors.
Good luck! Always good to see new entrepreneurial ideas!

What a rant! You must be jobless if you have that much time to post this much! This whole thread is full of haters! It starts with the Jews, then moves to blacks, and circles around with Muslims. And the conspiracy theories! I am guessing most of these posters are white males- the most privileged people on the planet doing the most complaining! Get a life! You can not point out people for being racist and then say they are most likely whites! Generalizing like this is not going to help you win a argument in any context because you will surely end up pissing off some one you hit with friendly fire. The member you quoted does seem to have a agenda but bashing Jews is a side act for the most part. Of course I can. The Jew haters are mostly white or Muslim. The Muslim haters are mostly white. The black haters are mostly white. It's just the way it is. Now, I am sure there are plenty of Muslims who are deplorable. I'm sure it's the same with the Jews and with blacks. But this thread in particular is filled with hatred towards those groups I mentioned. Use some logic. The hate on this post is, and, I'm going on a limb here, is probably from white guys. And, the guys part- cmon, we know that most people involved in bitcoin are guys. |

First i must say that Jews are invaders in Palestine.
And i can turn to main subject;
Jews were living like gipsies around world in history. They were always cautious for being exilled by society and governments because of their manners and behaviours.Therefore they always kept their fortunes light and expensive things like gold, jevellery and mostly they made trade of them. What was their behaviour and manners? They were very good merchants but foxy and liar. They also were keeping each other well. By this way, they were monopolies in trade. As much as they earned, they began keeping money in their hands. So, they began making usury. In few years, they were very rich and rest of poors. Enough? No, because they are very greedy. They began manage governments. They bought men in governments and bribing was their tool. Finally governments and societies they libed in killed or exilled them. We can look 1500's Spain for example. Spain King Ferdinand exilled 500.000 Jews in 1492 and Ottoman Empire accepted them.
A group of Jews gone to America after discovered. That group grown stronger in America. In years very big jewish population migrated tu America. So, America was like their second escape from Egypt. Did you know that first American Constution written in hebrew?
America is second Israel. Jewish Lobbies keep under control everything in America and wherever is there American effect.
They can do everything for their profit and they are already doing. Jews are murderers of their prophets. Did you know that Jesus was sent Jews? And John (Yohanna) who denounced Jesus was jewish.
The last prophet Mohamed (AS) was arabian and Jews been jealousy of it that why not jewish. Therefore they hate islam and muslims.
That hate and desire of manage world made them aggresive and violent. But jewish population is not big. Therefore they support terror and their hit men like USA, UK or etc.
Believe me, wherever if there's terror, there's a Jew behind it...
What a rant! You must be jobless if you have that much time to post this much! This whole thread is full of haters! It starts with the Jews, then moves to blacks, and circles around with Muslims. And the conspiracy theories! I am guessing most of these posters are white males- the most privileged people on the planet doing the most complaining! Get a life! |

What if you floated the idea on LBC forums, but don't reveal the username. Or what about Paxful? Or what about also posting the trading section? Anyhow, I know at least 1 poster on LBC who got his account banned. He might want it. If you wanted, I could float the idea around. I'd do it for free.

 How much could I get for this? BTCBTCBTC only! You will pay for escrow if you wish to you it, no scammers! I'm on LBC a lot, I don't think it's worth that much. But, I guess you could get $10 worth of btc from a scammer, your target market. Good for you for using escrow! |

Hi. Your bid still stands and I might accept it if there are no other bids for that domain. The reason why the price is higher now is because previously there was no set price, just a minimum starting bid of $30 to get the auction going. But, clearly the traffic here doesn't justify an auction of this size so I had to create a regular listing instead. Well, you need to state that here then. An auction doesn't need to have a set price, but it does need a minimum price. If someone bids more than the minimum bid, that bid is valid, and if no one bids after that, the first bidder wins. The last minimum bid was at 30$, you cannot suddenly change that price to 250$ and open another thread, completely ignoring the last bid. If the domain doesn't get sold to dogeditital for whatever reason, I will leave you a negative trust rating. BTW, move this thread to "digital goods" Hi there, I wrote in the auction listing at the very top that I reserve the right to refuse any bid at the end of the auction. Which is standard approach if the bids do not meet the min reserve price. I did not ignore the $30 bid, sorry if you got that impression. I noted it and as I said if no one else bids for that domain I will consider it. Although arguably selling that domain for $30 would be very generous. You are of course free to leave a negative feedback if you want. Again though, I haven't really done anything wrong I read the prior listing, and it does say that he reserves the right to refuse any bid. So, you're going to give him a negative trust rating for what? If he refuses a bid, then he is being honest, right? He is keeping to his word. |

Are there any meetups in the United States?
Hmm let's see: http://bfy.tw/4xYo  I attended 1 meetup in Massachusetts. There were about 10 of us. I was expecting to see some trading, but it was very low key, kinda boring, kinda awkward, like it was a first date. Some people were talking some interesting technical stuff, but not sure if I would attend any more. |

fwiw, I just checked to see if any deposits were made to address mentioned in OP. Nothing in it. So nobody, even the OP hasn't fallen for these scams

From a perspective of someone living in the U.S. The bitcoins or fraction of bitcoin you own are yours. You can do whatever you want with it as long as what you're buying/selling is not illegal.
It is the same as U.S. fiat: you can take a dollar and light it on fire, and it is legal (as long as you don't cause a forest fire).
So far, in the U.S., it is mostly legal to buy and invest (check with state laws first). When it comes to selling, however, it becomes a gray area in a couple of ways:
1) How is it taxed? I believe any profit is taxed as capital gains. But what if you trade bitcoins for a living? Do you have to then pay income tax?
2) What kind of licensing do you need? MSB, MTL? None? Based on my own forum reading on trading sites, it seems as though there is no clear answer. Traders are currently on the bleeding edge of owning to selling, then back to owning and back to selling, and on and on.
I think pending and future litigation will determine who owns bitcoin, and after you've owned and either spent or resold, what kind of taxes can be levied on it.
