4021  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Win using martingale system? on: April 05, 2017, 09:32:17 AM
You can win in martingale system but for that I have read here an infinite bankroll is required. You can always double your amount when playing roulette and keep betting on the red for example. Same can be applied in sport betting, find an odd 2 and double your bet after every time you lose.

Winning your gambling activity using martingale system is really possible though, it do not really need an infinite bankroll, it still depends on how you bet. If you don't have big bankroll, stick on betting small, then double it making it bigger and bigger every time you lose. If you have a big bankroll, don't take the advantage of your big bankroll and bet big, just bet a medium one, betting big even if you have a big bankroll doesn't mean youbare close to winning. Gambling has risks and that risks are really really dangerous. Just dont make bets you can't afford to lose.

Why force them to do anything ? If they dont want to use it, they dont need to. Most people who dont like it are in the first world and really dont have any problems that bitcoin can immediately solve for them.

We can't force them to like bitcoin, and it doesn't really matters if they like it or not. In my point, they must have a valid reason why they don't like bitcoins, or if they are even using it. And I don't think they hate bitcoin because it gives a lot of opportunities especially to business mans, entrepreneurs and investors.
4023  Economy / Speculation / Re: SegWit losing Bitcoin Unlimited winning -> Moon soon on: April 04, 2017, 12:31:50 AM
In my opinion segwit is not losing yet. In the long run though there's a high probability that bitcoin unlimited will lose since right now it got many flaws but btc will go up in price even if none of these two is implemented. I really do hope that block size problems be resolved soon, I want to see bitcoin again having fast transactions just like the old days where the block confirmations are fast and transactions are settled within less than 30mins.

That is true, Segwit is not losing the fact that there are some that do not vote means they are okey of what are bitcoins now, they do not like the Bitcoin Unlimited either the Segwit though they are comfortable to what is bitcoin right now, I am not saying that even with the problems about the transaction and fees the users are still comfortable, I mean the way the bitcoins are used. There will be no fork and these debate must be ended soon.
4024  Economy / Economics / Re: bitcoin benefit of saving for a long time? on: April 04, 2017, 12:26:32 AM
Most of the Bitcoin long term holders I've seen so far have not been disappointed by the currency. I think that seeing your holdings going up in value should be something good, but something even better is the possibility of having total control over your own money, without having to depend on third parties.

That is right, there are a lot of long term bitcoin holders who are really making a fortune from it. Having such a fortune and not dissapointing them as a investment, bitcoin is really a progress. Having bitcoin as an asset is really unpredictable because of its volatility making it a big challenge to the investors. I think if I also invest on bitcoin the time I have heard of it, maybe I am one of these guys that made a fortune from bitcoin.
4025  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin or gold? on: April 04, 2017, 12:17:27 AM
I dont like gold because its not finite in a way that we know, like bitcoin is. Last week they just found a massive mine in China which will be pumping gold out like crazy now. Not to mention that everytime the price of gold goes up, a bunch of miners start up operations again until the price gets pushed back down and they become unprofitable again.

Bitcoin is finite, dont like gold. Gold is a natural resource that is why it can be formed underneath us without us knowing it, so that means there are infinite gold that can be mined, but the one who will suffer all of that is us humans. There may be an infinite number of gold but while they are mining, thinking about their money, they are ruining our earth and that will really take a toll on us, I agree with you liking bitcoin much than gold, I may be voting gold as a good asset, but in these terms, I dont like it.
4026  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin has defeated gold on: April 03, 2017, 11:47:21 PM
Bitcoin: $1260/BTC
Gold: $1241/xau
Well, I can not believe that the Bitcoin prices has crossed over gold sooner than I expect. I thought the process would be finished in April. Wow, Bitcoin is truly worth and everyone who has sold their Bitcoin has made a huge mistake. Nothing can stop Bitcoin right now.
At the present gold is leading the price now into bitcoin, its because of the volatility, or sometimes there is a rebound happened into bitcoin. But bitcoin is going up now which is ready to take off again to resume the highest peak amount he made which 1300$plus, but it doesn't bitcoin defeated Gold, no is not like that of course it will always be gold as gold.

The bitcoin may have a good and higher price than gold, but it will never run past gold because it is gold. Bitcoins price is really volatile and it is not really stable, while gold are still gold, having such good price and a better asset than bitcoin. It may reach $1300 in the future, still gold will be a better asset than bitcoin because it is gold, it is known everywhere and can be used to buy everywhere, while bitcoin is a digital currency and not a really popular asset. I agree with you, gold is a better asset than bitcoin, gold will always be gold as gold.
4027  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: how strong is bitcoin really? on: April 03, 2017, 11:40:43 PM
I guarantee bitcoin has very strict security if you're taking advantage of all the security features that have been provided by blockchain.


That is right, if someone can use a calculator to hack it, then I think there are a lot of news about bitcoin getting hacked by some Casio calculator or wierd stuffs like that, if you think of it, even hacking someone's private key is really hard the possibilities of hacking these bitcoin wallet and private key is almost close or equal to zero. So bitcoin's security is really top notch and can't be hacked easily buy some matimathecian or some sorts.
4028  Economy / Economics / Re: bitcoin prices go to the moon? on: April 03, 2017, 11:33:50 PM
Can anyone tell me what is the exact definition of going to the moon? Is it $10k or $100k and so on? As everyone will be expecting different price level and no one knows what will be the highest price of bitcoin in future.

Going to the moon means the increase of the bitcoin's price that the people are getting crazy about it. There are no exact price because there are a lot of price that will make the bitcoin users really happy. And I think too that it is also the expectation of the users to the price reaching another level so I think that may be $10000 which is really still so far from the current price now, it is still 10 times the current price. They are expecting a lot of prices, though they are the same on one point, that is the increase of the bitcoin price.
4029  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcache & Megaupload 2: A first look at encrypted anonymous content delivery on: April 03, 2017, 11:06:06 PM
Is he just paying to download files? If so that doesn't really seem like anything new or innovative.
The fact that you can sell your files or content for Bitcoin and will be able to monetize it, is pretty innovative for me.
AFAIK, there is no other service which is allowing you to do that now.

I wonder how Kim will solve the fact that bitcoin transaction fee is more than minimal price of a file you can buy from his service.

That is right, I think that is the problem that must be solve first, or they will not get any profit from these project. I think they need to have a good file or a minimum pay out so the costumers will not abuse the files that are not really worthy of getting paid. If the price is not really profitable, the costumers just can add another file so the bitcoin that will be sent is proffitable for the both sides including the fees.
4030  Economy / Economics / Re: You should never trust banks on: April 03, 2017, 11:01:26 PM
The whole concept of banking is just a big sham, You give them your money and they use that very money to make profit afterwards they charge you all sort of taxes from the money. They can close your account at any time and freeze your asset at any given time.
These rates make things complicated for many people. Things could be much better if such banks did not suffer so much influence from governments. If such institutions did not have to pay high taxes, customers would benefit from it.

Many people really are being deceived by these activities of the banks earning a lot of money from them. That is the reason why I use bitcoin, it is a decentralized digital currency which is really great because no banks and governments are related to it, there are no taxes and we can send bitcoin anonymously. With these matters I think I can't really trust banks and their services, the fact that they are related to the government which means they are not really trusted.
4031  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: When do you plan to sell? on: April 03, 2017, 10:26:30 PM
Right now I don't have any plan to sell my coins as the price is not too promising for me at a moment and my target price is $2000 so I will sell my all coins only when the price of bitcoin reaches there and till then I am trying to grow my bitcoins with trading altcoins.

That is right, fhe bitcoin's price now is really promising that it is still going up. I think that it will be breaking its own record these year and surpass it more. I am planning to convert them after I save up a few amount to buy something I really want. And also I need to pay my internet bills using my bitcoins savings.  I also want to trade now, though I sometime lost my incentives because of what is happening and my Laptop is broken and can't do shit now.
4032  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is no longer a currency on: April 03, 2017, 10:19:14 PM
It's still a currency, but right now the price was changing really fast. I think better to sell right now your coins and wait for any dumps, if you read the last news we had a lot of issues with lost bitcoins 3 billion bitcoins been wiped. Indeed, we know that anything can happend in this 2 weeks better to buy some fiat money and save them for next invest

I dont think that it was treated still as a currency, when is the last time you paid for something using bitcoin? It is treated now as an asset especially to third worlds that do not have that much information bout the digital currrencies. In my country there are no bitcoin ATMs and there are only few stores that accept bitcoin, which is really dissapointing. So what will you do with your bitcoin when you can't use it to buy something, you save them, and the very good way to earn is to wait for a good price and sell it or convert to real money. It is an asset.
4033  Economy / Economics / Re: How to teach kids about Bitcoin? on: April 03, 2017, 09:48:08 PM
the system teach to kids not diference another people is same
the first learn about bitcoin wallet, make bitcoin addres, safe addres and more
is about wallet addres is known, so learn about find bitcoin

I do not think that it will be interesting for children to learn such things. That they wanted to learn something they need to be very interested. And I do not think that children will be interested in blockchain

Me too, I don't think that you can teach a children such boring terms ( for the kids ) about bitcoin. They will be just giving you a face frowned not knowing what you are saying or either llaying while you are telling them which is a sign of they do not care. If you really want the kids to learn them, try to introduce them to a faucet game which will they enjoy. Games like the blockchain game and the Alien run is popular on android, they will be asking questions about it when the time comes.
I have to disagree with you because if you inplement the same system to kids as adults are using it they will absolutely won't learn anything. For example how about you are teaching college algebra to kids would you think they would absorb anything after that? Of course not you have to teach the basics first before you enter rhe hard lessons especially money (Bitcoin included).

You don't get it. I am recommending them a game that is a faucet and they will enjoy playing it. I did not say i will teach them anything about bitcoin. Kids likes to play and know new stuffs, after playing games they will ask something about that, but I still dont think that they will still understand it. I did not say anything about teaching them about money and bitcoin, I said to introduce them to faucet games. (sigh)
Among everything that a kids may learn why would you ever pick Bitcoin to be the main subject to the their learning? I think it is not ideal even at introducing kids the idea of Bitcoin, they are not even recommended to touch anything internet related yet (facebook and other social media sites) as it can hinder the experience of kids having fun socializing with other kids which is better compared to sitting or lying down using a tablet or phone. My point is there is a right time for Bitcoin to be open up to the person and that is maybe when they are teenagers where money or investing can be introduce to them properly as they will know the importance of money clearly at this puberty years.

I don't get it why the one quoting my posts are saying always that I will teach them about bitcoin, I just said that I will introduce them to faucet games, and let it enjoy it, I did not say anything about teaching them bitcoin, unless there will come a time that they will realize something, not now that he/she is a child but when he grew up and be a teen or an adult. When he realize that I am letting them play faucet in their childhood they be asking about bitxoin to me because he knows that I know about bitcoin. Is my explanation confusing?
4034  Other / Archival / Re: Earning "free" bitcoins on: April 03, 2017, 09:39:21 AM
The days are gone where we could easily get huge amount of free bitcoins from faucet sites and now if you are looking for absolutely free bitcoins then you will not find any single method to get it and if you want to have bitcoins in your wallet then only way is to work hard to get it.

It's better to say that you can get free satoshi's instead of saying free bitcoins from the faucet. And you are right with it, when we say about earning for free, there's no way to earn as free, you need to work hard for it. Maybe there's no investment included but your hard work which is going to generate earning from it.

That is right, the thread must be earning free satoshi not earning free bitcoins. Faucets just give small amount of satoshi that is why we don't really recommend one if you are not patient and hard working. But nothing is free so the title must be earning satoshi not earning free satoshi. I disagree with you saying that there are no investment, eventually you are investing your time earning this satoshis on faucets, not all investments are money, some are time and attention.
4035  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Daily use of bitcoin? on: April 03, 2017, 09:16:45 AM
That is great knowing that they are accepting bitcoin now, but I dont think that all of it's branches are accepting bitcoin, are they accepting bitcoin? I mean all the branches in the world? And I dont think that there will be problems about paying them because there is a lot of way to pay it quickly like scanning the QR code of how much they will pay, it is really quick and we don't need to wait foe the confirmations or think about the miners fee. I think these will be a problem if you are paying the cofee accross the world.
4036  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: April 03, 2017, 04:51:31 AM
It is better save money on the bank,while the others is i'll put it on invest in bitcoin,you can sure that your money is the value is high.And when you are having a an invest and saving you have more money someday you can buy anything if you want.If you more invest you can invest you'll can get more of the investment you want.

It is realy good to save money, whether you do it on a bank or do it ourselves. I dont really get what you are saying,  but I think you are saying good things about saving and investing. The more we invest the more the profit, the more you save, the more you can get from the future and the more your savings amd investment, the more money you can get in the future, I think that is what you are saying. But in these two I prefer to save than to invest, saving is a way of investment too, though in saving you take care of the money while in investing, you gave it to someone else.
4037  Economy / Economics / Re: Which one is good, trading or investing? on: April 03, 2017, 01:45:39 AM
I am more engaged in trade than investing. Just now there are very few reliable projects in which it is not terrible to invest. However, it is not very profitable to trade cryptocurrency.

I don't really know what you are saying and it is not really making any sense. You are engaged on trading that investing right? You said that there are few reliable projects in which is not terrible to invest and you said that trading cryptocurrency is not very profiitable, you are engaged on trading but you said that it is not profittabke, then why engage on something that is not very profittable for you? And you said that there are only few reliable projects to invest, then try to invest there than engaging on trading crypto currency which is not really terrible to invest.

I am sure that this is a very important step for the whole world. Now I'm interested in watching the economy of this country. I want to know how the crypto currency will affect it.
yeah if bitcoin provide this opportunity around the world then it will be more beneficial for us then we do not need to use fiat then we can be use our earning bitcoin and then we do not need convert our bitcoin to fiat.

I agree that bitcoin can provide us a lot of opportunity around the world, but saying that we do not need to use fiat is a different thing. Even if governments accept bitcoin, we can't still avoid the fact that bitcoin has still it's flaws. And bitcoin's volatility is one of the most reason why many people can't just accept bitcoin as a payment.  There are still instances that we need to use fiat or real money like when we are on a place where bitcoin is not really known. Here in our country, bitcoin is not really popular and just a few knew it, saying that we can't just pay a digital currency they don't know.
