421  Economy / Economics / Re: Can Bitcoin also lead to corruption ? on: November 14, 2017, 11:31:32 PM
We all know that there is corruption everywhere, like in government or any other organization. Because of money, corruption can always happen with greedy people who always wants more money to them. Since bitcoin can be considered as money, can it also lead to corruption?

Corruption by greedy people but not by government, yes.  It is evident because there are many investment sites that promises high profit, high return of invested btc in just a short period of time.  It is like 10% interest on your btc everyday.  That percentage is really big that is why many will invest.  After awhile or just before a month, it will turn out to be a scam.
422  Economy / Economics / Re: Is bitcoin a good way to invest your money ? on: November 14, 2017, 11:28:10 PM
As for me, i believe bitcoin is a good way to invest. With its rising popularity which, by the way, attracts investors, its value is constantly rising and promising at the same time. Although, there are times when its value goes way down due to certain fluctuations and factors, yet it eventually goes up so there is no need to worry. Bitcoin is perfect
For long term investment and returns or profite will definitely be huge.

Bitcoin has been proven to be a good investment in these past years.  Although it was just launched less than a decade, its value rise up more to the valie of certain commodities.  Plus it gives a huge return when done in long investment. 
423  Economy / Economics / Re: Can Bitcoin End World Poverty? on: November 14, 2017, 11:24:15 PM
I think YES. If someone who teach others about bitcoin and how to used it, some of us will not suffer the poverty. But if you don't work for it and leave
 it behind,poverty is always exist. And don't blame the government because laziness is kill others.

Although the government should help citizen who are poor, still we should not be dependent to them.  We have to do ways to earn income.  Bitcoin is a good way to atleast lessen poverty.  It helps people by giving them lots of oppprtunities.  Computers or devices that can have internet is all we need.
424  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What Are Your Greatest Fears As a Bitcoin Holder? on: November 14, 2017, 05:49:28 PM
My greatest fear of bitcoin. If the bitcoin disappear down the value of it.  Mostly the hacker of the wallet. If you rate me the security of the wallet, I think will  50-50. the biggest fear is your self you know why.

I also think this way and am afraid that thr price of bitcoin will goes up.  That we will no longer need a pyramid or bitcoin. We do no know him much and what we so how much is it.  Bitcoin can turn into a good investment and not.
425  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why aren't there more women in Bitcoin? on: November 14, 2017, 02:49:43 PM
Take a look around the crypto community, both in meatspace and online, and it would be fair to say that the majority of participants are male. This is borne out in a recent survey of 2,000 Americans which shed light on the makeup of the bitcoin space, highlighting a stark gender divide. In fact Google Analytics data estimates less than 4% of bitcoin users to be female. The question is, why?

Source: https://news.bitcoin.com/why-arent-there-more-women-in-bitcoin/?utm_source=Why

Maybe because women are doubtful and that they are not really into risk.  Although I have friends who are into bitcoin and they are girls.  It just so happened that bitcoin is much known by male because men are always into games.  But I am sure, women can do it and much more what men can achieve.
426  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why are so many people against bitcoin? on: November 14, 2017, 02:45:50 PM
I'm trying to understand why are so many people against bitcoin?  is it the innovation that scares them? the feeling of staying behind? the fact that that money will go to the wrong hands?


It is just they are too afraid to go outside their shells.  They are afraid to trt soemthing new.  We cannot blame them but if you will see that there are many people who invest in bitcoin and that many earned.  Then we can say that it is true, bitcoin is real and not a scam. 
427  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if, we advertise bitcoin on T.V.? on: November 11, 2017, 04:42:16 PM
It's a great idea, because people who have no knowledge in bitcoins will benefit from it. But bitcoins is already popular it's already advertised in social media and pick up by mainstream media. And anyone who have access to the internet eventually they will know about bitcoins.

Given the fact that bitcoin is already advertised on social media, then the need for it to be advertised on television is zero or nothing.  Social media or any forms in relation to internet is a good way for bitcoin to be known by those who have no knowledge about it.  Besides tv advertisement is so expensive and who will shoulder it incase?
428  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Am i too late on: November 11, 2017, 04:35:11 PM
is now too late to invest on bitcoin ?

Actually now is the best time to buy bitcoin considering that its price goes down.  And there is no late time when buying investment.  If you are positive with bitcoin then you are willing to take a risk to buy some as investment.  Anytime is the best time.
429  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Countries Banning Crypto Currencies on: November 11, 2017, 04:04:46 PM
Unfortunately, many counties have banned and will be banning the use of crypto currency.

So far, these countries have banned crypto:
Vietnam
Bolivia
Ecuador
Kyrgyzstan
Bangladesh
Nepal


These countries however do not have a major influence on crypto as they are third world countries and most investors/influences come from the West/China.

Do you guys think as it becomes more of a reality that crypto is the future of currencies, more countries will ban the use due to fear of losing control? Do you think as it becomes the normal form of currency, these countries will lift the ban?

What do you think?

They might be protecting what they should protect.  They fear that it might affect their economy something like that.
 I live in a third world country and yet our government does not ban bitcoin.  It is legal, though I did not heard or see any announcement about legalizing it here in our country.  It is legal because if we will buy bitcoin we can do it on banks and remittance centers. 

430  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin legitimate or illegal? on: November 11, 2017, 04:00:39 PM
Bitcoin is legitimate and legal. Money is legal when it is used for legal transactions and it becomes illegal when it is used in anything illegal - BTC is just like your everyday paper money.

The money and bitcoin itself are legal.  Just like what you said, the transaction or crime is the illegal.  Bitcoin is very legit.  If it is illegal or scam or fraud or whatever you want to call it, bitcoin will never be in the position where it is now.  Its price will not goes up like that and the government for sure will issue warning regarding digital currency particularly bitcoin.
431  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: is it good time to buy. on: November 09, 2017, 02:53:04 PM
Its good time for sell (If i were you).I already sold all of my bitcoin.Now I am waiting for dumping bitcoin.If it dump again $7000 than I would buy 1 bitcoin.You can also buy now bitcoin.It can hit $1000 anytime.

How can we even know if that will happen because no one exactly knows when its price will go up or down.  If I have money, I will just buy bitcoin whichbI can afford to lose.  Because if I wait until bitcoin price goes down, I will lose opportunity when I buy bitcoin now and its price continje to climb up.  So anytime is the best time to buy bitcoin.
432  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Should I invest now or wait a while? on: November 09, 2017, 02:44:49 PM
Let's say bitcoin would still be around for another 20 years, the way bitcoin works is it rewards early adopters more as it is a deflationary currency so one should expect that prices would only be going up(unless some major event unfolds). Say for example, you have invested now at this price, surely you have obtain a nice amount of profit by then.

Just do not waste a time of opportunity to invest in bitcoin.  Do not wait when its price will goes down and then buy to invest because no one knew when its price wiill goes up or down.  It is really a good opportunity or the early investors are lucky to have invested when its price is still low.  So just buy bitcoin and believe that you will earn a good profit with it.
433  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Google results show more people searching for Bitcoin than gold on: November 09, 2017, 02:31:24 PM

Because people already knew gold.  And considering also that bitcoin is becoming talk of the town and many are curious on what bitcoin is.  Plus the fact that bitcoin is much and have higher price than gold.  Bitcoin can be earned unlike gold wherein you have to buy some just to have it.
434  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin be replaced by another cryptocurrency? on: November 09, 2017, 02:26:48 PM
Yes there is a chance to replace Bitcoin by any other cryptocurrency.But replace Bitcoin is never be an easy task for them , because Bitcoin is already keep their flag as a most profitable investment in each and every Bitcoin users.To distroy and win over Bitcoin is really harder for that cryptocurrency.

So it would be like your answer is no, it cannot be replaced right?  Just like what you said, it would be hard for them to beat bitcoin considering that all their prices were based on its price.  I mean when you buy new altcoin, you will use bitcoin to buy some.  Many people who are into digital currencies have bitcoin as their investment.  Since bitcoin is trusted, proven and guaranteed to give you real profit.
435  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How did you first hear about bitcoin? on: November 07, 2017, 02:07:57 PM
Yaeh I first heard / read about Bitcoin from my friend, then I search for articles on the internet. Now I'm a bitcoin fan, and until now I keep following the news.

I also learned about bitcoin from a friend whom I met online.  I was looking for an extra income then and then they told me about bitcoin.  Since then I make it a point that I earned a good amount of bitcoin.  It is such a great help for me and to my finaces.
436  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think Bitcoin will survive after 100 year ? on: November 07, 2017, 01:59:50 PM
I am not really 100% confident that Bitcoin lasts 100 years. Especially now that more and more projects with solid technology are in the market. What I am confident is that Bitcoin will most probably continue to rise in few years. 

I also agree with you.  Bitcoin can give us a good future for now but I also do not think that it can last for 100 more years.  It is because its price is really high now and it will  continue to goes up in case.  And if it continue to goes up maybe the government will do something to stop it or maybe its price will go down and people will pull out their investments.
437  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Money can buy happiness? on: November 07, 2017, 01:45:10 PM
not at all. Happiness does not depend on money. It is more like a psychological thing which is more connected to the human minds. Don't you think so?

Yes money can buy happiness but not joy.  Happiness is brought about by small things in life but after some time it will gone.  According to people, best things in life are free and indeed it is true.  But most of the time, things that will help us to go on can be bought by money.
438  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Working Abroad is a lot of sacrifice. on: November 07, 2017, 01:34:53 PM
Leaving your country and going to abroad for work really is a lot of sacrifice. You have to adjust in a new place and new environment.You have to adjust with the working place and people and have to make many new habits.So its a lot of sacrifice to make in the abroad.

Plus the risk of having an employer who have no conscience just like what we always saw in the news.  Those who were treated their employees as animals.  In our country, we call those who work overseas as modern day heroes because of the sacrifices they make for their families and for the country.
439  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who wants to be a Bitcoin Millionaire?! on: November 06, 2017, 11:13:13 AM
I think it will be to everyone's desire to be a billionaire through bitcoin, because bitcoin in fact is getting more and more expensive

Bitcoin can makes us rich and will give us the hope that we are all hoping and dreaming of.  We can become millionaire especially those who trust bitcoin even before it was just launched.  They can become even billionaires.  For us who just met bitcoin and knew it can become rich, but this time through perseverance and working smart.  Bitcoin can gives us richness and can gives us all the comfortable life we all wanted.
440  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why people are holding Bitcoin? on: November 06, 2017, 11:07:12 AM
just like me they want their investment to get big in value plus im also using bitcoin to buy my stuffs online and have my electronic load its good to hold bitcoin

I will not anymore use my bitcoin to buy stuffs and have my phone be loaded using bitcoins.  It is too precious for me to spend it on things which I can use my money to buy for those things.  Just like you said, holding bitcoin is almost the same as having an investment.  Bitcoin even when just placed in our wallets gives us income which if we put on bank will not gives us the same interest.  So I will be glad to hold my bitcoins and wait for the time when it reached my target price.
