4381  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have You Been to Macau? on: August 29, 2017, 07:38:19 PM
It's like a gambler's paradise there. About 33 casinos squeezed into a small island.
If given a chance I would love to go that place, when you are a gambler that will give you another achievement in life to finally go to the place you love.
There are only two places I would like to go, I want to go to vegas but right now it seems Macau is more possible as it's closer to my location and not too expensive when finally have a trip there.
And I wouldn't.
I haven't been there, but the trip would be too expensive. Has any of you guys actually checked how much the flight would take and cost you?
London - Macau would take me 19 hours, with 2 stopovers, and would cost me £1,5k. That's more than I've ever waged, and I'd have to add a hotel and meals... I don't think i'll ever take that trip, even if someone agrees to go with me.

Mayweather will win this battle because mcgregor doesn't know how to boxing.
Are you from another planet or are you spamming here to increase your post count?? The fight has taken place already, it's over!
4383  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: How to check scam site??? on: August 29, 2017, 07:19:19 PM
No need to promise much to turn scam.
My U2 is too good to be true and is not a scam...so long I decide that it is not a scam...
Scam does not depend on  all non-sens and wrong thing are told here on this forum...
I have no idea what you've just said. Also, your trust seems to point out that you were running a scheme before, so I'd take your opinion with a grain of salt.


If you want to know whether a site is legit and paying the easiest way is to look for opinions. Always focus on the negative ones and read them carefully, because the positive ones, especially short opinions by new accounts tend to be fake. If there are 10 people saying they had no problems and the site is legit and 1 person saying they were scammed, don't invest, look for more opinions and try to verify if that 1 person can prove it.
4384  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Hashflare and Genesis on: August 29, 2017, 07:15:24 PM
I have contracts with Hashflare and Genesis (if you have any recommendations I would love to hear them)
I have one for you. If you gave them your money despite all the negative comments it's your decision (and IMO your mistake), but don't get greedy and don't put more money into this scam. If you want to invest buy the coins you like and hold. Look what happened to LTC. This year it pumped once in Spring and again this week. Your profit from investing will be much greater than from fake mining.

ISIS can declare what they like and nobody will care. They have no country, they can't declare wars.
Their threats are like "submit to us or we'll suicide on your land!". Crazy assholes!
4386  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and governments on: August 26, 2017, 02:04:25 PM
Government don't want that their people use a decentralized currency with anonymous transactions because government can't keep an eye on the money of public and there will be also tax issues. Many countries have already legalized bitcoin but they regulated it first. Yes they can strongly affect the economy of a country if majority of the people in a country use them.
Bitcoin's transactions aren't anonymous! They only seem to be anonymous, but you can track every single coin and at some point somebody will have to exchange it for fiat or goods. At this point he will become a target if somebody decides to put enough effort into finding him. Cash is more anonymous and almost impossible to track.
Governments are trying to ignore it for now because they don't need it. They have their currency that works and implementing unstable Bitcoin would mean a lot of work.
4387  Other / Meta / Re: Why does having an Alt account deserves negative trust? on: August 26, 2017, 01:58:24 PM
I honestly think they're overdoing it sometimes with trust. Having an alt account may deserve a comment in the form of neutral trust, so that if the person decides to back his arguments with his alt ol vouch for himself people won't fall for it. Negatives are an overkill.
There are situation when somebody should get a negative on his alt, but this should be limited to certain actions he did with that account (giving his other accounts trust, abusing signature campaigns, evading a ban, escrowing for himself, and other similar infringements).
4388  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Police raids of miner homes? Should I expect one soon? on: August 26, 2017, 01:50:22 PM
Somebody is definitely messing with you. I'd invest in security a bit. Get a security system with cameras that tracks movement and sends messages to your email and phone every time it's triggered. These things aren't expensive, you can get a decent one below $1000, provided you'll set it up yourself.
It may be some weirdo, a curious neighbor, one of your friends, the government... Don't get paranoid, but secure your investment. Better locks might help too Wink
4389  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why you should focus more on saving bitcoins than selling your bitcoins on: August 26, 2017, 01:24:33 PM
I'm not selling because I still have some fiat to live off. It's a simple math, really. I have an asset that keeps losing value due to inflation (fiat) and I have an asset that keeps gaining value due to deflation (Bitcoin), should I sell Bitcoin and keep holding fiat? I don't think you have to strain your grey matter too much to come up with the answer.

"For our design We have 1000 square feet of space in a cool atmosphere."
Haha it looks like they posted a photo of their basement. Doesn't look huge or outfitted with anything capable of sustaining the miners. I could post a similar photo right now ( I have a spare room, completely empty, dry and cool) and say It's my hosting space, ready to receive some miners. And I'm way cheaper, just $80k should be enough Grin
4391  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: How to join to a campaign and how to earn money when you join? on: August 26, 2017, 01:06:40 PM
I've checked out some threads and you generally have to fill out a form with all the details of your account. And then you have to wait until you get accepted. Just make sure you post constructive post since spam won't get you accepted into signature campaigns.
That's right. You post that you want to join and the manager checks your account and decides if you're a decent poster.
Treat this as a warning if you want to be a member of a campaign in future. Don't spam to level up your account, even if you're not posting for a campaign at the moment.
Post like you normally would, not to reach a certain number. Avoid repeating and shitposting, necroing threads, copying. It all can be found in your account later on and decrease your chances of getting hired.
4392  Other / Politics & Society / Re: How to be contented on what you have? on: August 26, 2017, 12:55:06 PM
Do not get jealous on what others have. The reason why you are contented is you are easily attracted on what others have and because you want to compete with them.
That's the most important thing. Don't look at others, don't watch commercials thinking you must have some new gadget. Life is very simple and you don't need many things to be happy. Don't buy  things to impress other people, buy things that you need and that you will use. Don't look at labels, you don't need expensive tags on your stuff!
4393  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Christians think they are the most persecuted religious group... lol on: August 26, 2017, 12:52:55 PM
Well.. 54% is a tiny majority, but if they are Trump supporters that explains everything. What always surprises me with these religions is, if your God is so wonderful, why is there so much suffering in the world? Why would you want to believe in and follow such a hateful entity? It makes little sense, if there was a God, surely they would spread love and happiness to everything?

What about the 77% of the Hillary voters who think that Muslims are the most persecuted group? 99.99% of the religion-based terrorism is of Islamic nature, and even then these guys claims that Muslims are discriminated against?

Muslims carrying the burden, being killed every day and called terrorists Cheesy Somebody should tell them they're working hard for this label.
I don't like religions in general but no religion is as full of shit as Islam. Whoever believes in that is mentally still in the Dark Ages.
4394  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Mayweather Vs McGregor: Info and prediction thread on: August 26, 2017, 11:47:22 AM
Dday is here; McGregor came across as a bit manic and, dare I say it, nervous. Floyd as usual cool, calm and collected. Been here many times and knows the drill. Wait for the first time he smirks as he sidesteps McGregor's left and nails him with a stinging right hand. All the hype will be taken out and we'll realize what we should have done all along: this isn't even a contest.
I've seen that. McGregor is trying to intimidate him by screaming jumping and all that, but you can see he's nervous. It would be great to see him win though.
I don't like wife beaters, so I'm not going to bet on "money" and I also like underdogs so that's another reason. If you bet on Conor and he wins you'll get a load of money. If you bet on Floyd there's not much to gain.
4395  Other / Politics & Society / Re: What are the Most Peaceful Countries? on: August 25, 2017, 05:00:56 PM
Historically those would be the countries that rarely attacked anyone and tried to stay away from conflicts. There are countries like The Czech Republic and former Czechoslovakia that just weren't aggressive compared to other countries. Poland also tried only to defend its borders and was attacked from all sides in 18th and 20th century. 
Nowadays you just don't know when and where a conflict will start, but we are living in the longest era of peace in history. It's a blessing.
4396  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price by December? on: August 25, 2017, 04:41:49 PM
Why $5000+ is the lowest option? Don't you accept more bearish opinions? I expect it to keep jumping between 4500 and 5000 for the rest of 2017 and never break $5000.
You're expecting too big jumps too early. Bitcoin has gained a lot this year it will take time before it regains the momentum.
4397  Economy / Economics / Re: Do we need blockchain technology? on: August 25, 2017, 03:38:24 PM
Yes we do. Why would you think that we don't? Because there are many things being developed in connection with BC and some of them end up being failures? What about all those that end up being gamechangers? I think we do need every technology, because it can always be used as a base for future development.

1. What''s the difference between fantasy and reality in your opinion, do not tell me you have never fantasized about anything?

Fantasy is my own view of things. My imagination, the way I'd like tings to be. I actually fantasize a lot to break away from reality and forget about things.
It's better than drugs Smiley

Quote
2. Does your imagination/or your fantasy influence your decisions in reality?

Always. I frequently dream of things I want, and I actively pursue those dreams in life.

Quote
3. What do you think, is holding on to your fantasy would make you successful or embracing the reality and surrendering to it is the way of success?

I think it is. If you fantasize about a girl you're in love with and want to impress her, you'll try to do things in your real life to achieve something. I think this is how it works, don't you?
4399  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why people are holding Bitcoin? on: August 22, 2017, 11:20:34 AM
People are holding because there isn't much that you can do with Bitcoin at the moment. In most countries it's not officially accepted and you can't pay your bills, taxes or buy groceries with it. The only thing left is to hold or turn it into some other online valuables like altcoins, or domains. The situation will change once it becomew sidely accepted but it will take years.
4400  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Genesis-mining Legit ? on: August 22, 2017, 10:55:55 AM
I have read this question a lot of times in the forum with different approaches of asking it. So I started teaching over the internet and found that there are almost 7-8 top reviewing websites who state that mining with genesis is completely legit and they have very transparent ratings. The thorough study about the genesis site looks very perfect and it is one more proof for us to believe in the genesis. I know cloud mining could be tough decision but we can't just ignore the reviews by these sites.

and many more are there.

Note: Im not involved with any of the service links provided above and neither they ref links. They are just review about the genesis mining.

There are as many negative reviews and warnings as the positive ones. The problem with this is that positive ones can be paid articles or made by people involved in the operation, while negative ones are usually written by burned users who lost money. Which one would you trust more? A warning by a former client or an interview with GM owners who claim everything is great and bloggers saying they aren't a scam because they aren't taking your money and giving nothing in return.

At the moment I have 1.19 TH/s with Genesis mining which would cost a new customer around $170 (0.139BTC at today’s exchange rate). This mining capacity generates around 0.00035BTC a day after maintenances are is removed. So at the current BTC price it will take me around 400 days to break even.
