Just by using your phone, you could purchase almost anything. No need to withdraw on an atm. No more heavy coins on your pocket. Paying bills, and purchasing tickets without standing on a line. Very convenient and less time consuming. I know we're already using credit cards right now, but using a single currency like bitcoin world wide could really help on transaction, having less error than the normal and faster transfer and of course the security. Do you guys think this could happen in the future of bitcoin?
Currently , I do not think that can happen because a lot of people still do not know bitcoin, especially many people still do not know how to use the phone or use the technology  .But if this idea is realized, it will be  the new innovations of the governments that will make all activities more efficient as all activities are controlled by technology. I hope to see it in the future
Technologically advances I agree, everyone just sits if they want anything for everyday life. But in humanity I will never agree, people will be lazy, daily activities only rely on technology world. This will result in socialization to someone else will be gone. The development of technology is not all positive will always be your impact felt by everyone. I would not imagine if in the future we just be friends and socialize with robots. Our human function will slowly crumble, we will not do anything.

Gambling really does not bring real value to the society and the gambler itself. The first thing to gamble is to transfer money from one wallet to another. Gambling takes us time and destroys our health, losing our passion for labor. Gambling makes people greedy and vicious.
That is just one plain truth and whether we like it or not, even some of those who keep saying they are in for the fun, is just a way to keep oneself in check from becoming an addict. With the way gambling has turned some people into liabilities in the society; it has done more harm than good and has only enriched the pocket of those who own the casinos as they keep making money off people's greed and carelessness.
There are many consequences and serious impact of gambling. It includes emotional, physical and financial health of individuals who gamble and not only to them personally but to their families also. They lost control of themselves, the lost control on time and money and even ignore other important responsibilities in their families.
That's right is the serious impact of a gambling addict, but for someone who is just looking for pleasure to unload it will not happen. Need for someone who wants to start gambling in order not to make gambling as a daily activity this will cause addiction. Although the nature of people is different in response to gambling, the point is you have to control yourself. You need to be able to distinguish between your life's needs and the temporary pleasure you will experience when winning gambling.
4463  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much have you won/lost on bitcoin gambling ? on: April 25, 2018, 11:27:45 AM
In the last few months I've been playing dice gambling. I don't know for sure the amount of money I won and the amount I lost if calculated to this day. But obviously I lost some money but I dont want to count it. I play just for fun, if I win I never take the money from the gambling result I will save for the next gambling but if lost I set aside bitcoin from signature campaign. I guess that's fair enough, because to overcome my saturation because every day I have to focus on the development of cryptocurrency.
4464  Economy / Speculation / Re: 3 Reasons why Bitcoin is Going Up! on: April 25, 2018, 11:03:05 AM
Today, I worry that Bitcoin will continue to fall after reaching $ 8,000. New York's law firm has issued a notice examining the digital currency exchange industry. This will affect the psychology of many people are accumulating Bitcoin in the past. They fear the risk. And they sell Bitcoin to get back some of the cash they invested in Bitcoin. It will reduce Bitcoin prices in the near future.

Go away from investment in cryptocurrency if you worried the price bitcoin will fall, this is not your place.

The increased price of cyptocurrency is normal, it can happen all the time. If you are afraid of falling prices why you are happy when prices rise. Many of the causes of bitcoin prices will go down, not just bad information. Day trading will affect the price of bitcoin every second. You should know, cryptocurrency have a fluctuation price if you want to be comfortable at investing cryptocurrency then you have to familiarize with the volatile price of cryptocurrency.
4465  Economy / Economics / Re: Prices will some day fluctuate less? on: April 24, 2018, 06:34:15 PM
Do you think that someday the prices for Bitcoin will fluctuate less and ppl will be able to use more as a currency, and not only as a form of investment?

With volatile bitcoin prices it is very difficult to set up the users (investors) to use it as a payment system (currency as appropriate). Unless if the prices of bitcoin is not volatile (they will most likely not happen) they will use bitcoin and altcoin as payment systems.

But if you look now and most likely will continue for the next few years bitcoin users will continue to use bitcoin as a place of investment and trading. The main factors are volatility price, and volatility price is a property that cannot be separated with the world of cryptos.

4466  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: What Do You Think About Social Media Campaign Bounty Program? on: April 24, 2018, 06:09:25 PM
Actually this problem is very confusing, the other hand we need social media to serve as advertising cryptocurrency. But the other side many our friends who still do not know the world of cryptos, most likely they are will be disturbed by everything we have done.

The main factor is they do not know what is cryptocurrency what is ICO project and what is Airdrop. So, the people who did unfollow or give an opinion that they do not like the activity that we do is those who do not like and do not understand cryptocurrency.

But all this time I have never followed bounty campaign with social media. I can not sacrifice a personal account that I have used as a cryptos ad. I prefer to join the signature campaign and focus on this forum.
4467  Economy / Speculation / Re: Expect price to go up or price down? on: April 24, 2018, 05:33:56 PM
I am still thinking that bitcoin prices will stay up high. I always predict like that. Moreover at this time, bitcoin prices show a significant increase. it is possible that bitcoin prices will continue to rise until the end of this month.
Everyone will always remember history, they always believe that history will be repeated in the future. All we know, bitcoin history from year to year has a significant increase. It is supported by several reasons that cryptocurrency systems will always be the most important part of human life.

Logically your opinion can be understood, and everyone will have the same desire. For intance, someone who knows cryptocurrency late and he believes bitcoin will have a high price at will want the price of bitcoin back down drastically because want to buy at a cheap price.

But in fact there will always be a thought that repudiate the cryptocurrency system, for another reason.
4468  Economy / Economics / Re: Blockchain and AI will improve the world economy on: April 24, 2018, 05:16:13 PM
Sooner or later will happen.

Blockchain technology has grown rapidly since its creation in 2009. This technology offers many high-security systems, forming trust and transparency. Therefore, many world companies are already exploiting and developing blockchain technology that can be used to assist their operations. By using blockchain technology the company can prune intermediaries to send administrative processes.

AI (Artificial Intelligence) is a system to optimize computer system in assisting human role. At this time Artificial Intelligence has been widely developed as in the field of economy, education, security, court, transportation, military. I'm sure in the future this system will be believed to be in all areas of work. So for me, in the future blockchain and AI just not improve the world economy, but the human mind to the technology world will not be separated.

4469  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Cut losses and re invest? on: April 24, 2018, 03:54:48 PM
There's no a safe way to save money on cryptocurrency even if it's stored in bitcoin, that's really no safe. Pump and dump is a false strategy that we will never know, no one knows it will come true.

It would be a little safer if we invested in the coin that we had previously analysts. So with any negative comments or positive comments on the coins we hold, we will not be affected.

Believe in the decision you have decided, ignore the chirp about the negative comments that you see, it's not good for you to input in your trading or investment strategy.

And you need to know TRX is a good coin, hold or buyback if you sell now.

4470  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling: The Seven Deadly Sins on: April 24, 2018, 01:59:36 PM
then what do you mean? does opening company to get rich? if yes, I guess that too gambling. because opening the company was the same as gambling with the hope that the capital can be re-issued and can benefit. because if the business you open fails. it will make you lose. and in conclusion it is also a gambling
Oh please! Why do we even get to talk like this sometimes? These two should never be placed on the same level. When you are opening a company, you have one sole purpose, which is to use your idea and skills to make profit and even though things may not turn out as you want, it would be rare not to make it work if you have quality skills and an idea that can sell.

However, in gambling, this is a totally different case entirely, whereas you have no idea, clueless as f**k, no skills and all you have is luck, and in that case, you are really prone to losing everything unless you are just some very strange lucky man and even at that you have also been able to dish yourself some brains in the process.
Maybe he is a gambling addict, so he likes making a company (maybe he means to make a business because the company is too broad) like it's gambling. Logically gambling and making the company very much different, such as land and sky is too much to compare it.

Making a company needs special planning, while gambling just needs a capital to bet on. Making a company needs special skills while gambling just needs luck (I have not found a specific strategy to win any gambling) only. Making a company needs a lot of consideration while gambling just needs greed.
4471  Economy / Economics / Re: Is this basically just another way to make money? on: April 24, 2018, 01:39:15 PM
Every trader or investor wishes to end up making profit after any transaction. The same principle applies to Bitcoin. It is another lucrative means to earn money. But there is more to Bitcoin than just investing into it. Holders and bullish like me, believe strongly that Bitcoin is the future. The era where most trading will be done with Bitcoin, both online and offline is yet to come. I suggest you read more into Bitcoin and you'll get to appreciate that there is more to Bitcoin than just investment.
I see reasons with the OP, but generally in the world, this is unavoidable. No one is supporting a project without expecting to get something from it and at the end the early adopters are always the ones with the chunk of it because they believed earlier while some just had to join at some point. The thing is everyone is here for the money, and that is the reason why we do business anyway, but that still does not change the fact that blockchain technology is the future.
I really think that the early adopters were not looking for profits, they were interested in bitcoin as a project that could change the world and just out of luck they were able to benefit economically out of bitcoin but most people that came after them have only one thing in mind and that is to make money through bitcoin, there is nothing wrong with that but I think that is why many people are here.
I guess is not like that, those bitcoin developers are definitely thinking of the future. If we talk about 'money' will definitely culminate with the profits to be had. And now it has been proven that they have changed the world and changed their economies. I do not see 'luck' on this project, but I see their future thinking (what will be needed in the future) far beyond me.
4472  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trader or Gamblers. on: April 24, 2018, 01:03:02 PM
As human nature, we all want to make a bunches and make it fast; too much temptation that incites us to gamble with our account.
Same with gambling, the greatest enemy is yourself, only you will decide between losing and winning.

Well, you will decide which to choose. Trading and gambling are different, I mean have the same way but have different functions. Trading will make you think about the benefits because it can be used as a source of income. While gambling, just as a place to have fun, cannot be used as a source of income. I'm not sure if there is someone who claims that gambling is a source of income for his life.

Therefore, I argue gambling and trading have the same way but different functions. So I'll answer your question I will choose to trade to be a source of income, while gambling, I will make a place to find pleasure only. The intensity of trading than gambling in my life more often I use for trading. Because trading will support my life in the future, I'm not too focused to gamble only about twice a week I go to site dice.
4473  Economy / Economics / Re: let us promote BITCOIN on: April 24, 2018, 12:35:44 PM
Bitcoin promotion, if you want to promote bitcoin a good thing is the promotion of the government. You can create a community in your country, and invite others to use bitcoin. With so many bitcoin users in your country, you can to give a statement to the government that bitcoin is worth using.

Keep in mind, they (the people who don't like bitcoin) just see bitcoin from the negative side only. Reading interest on cryptocurrency is lacking, so in the form of a large community, they are likely to be aware of the importance of cryptocurrency for life. My opinion, promotion about bitcoin in this forum just as you trade in the mini market, it will be useless.
4474  Economy / Economics / Re: Recession vs Crypto World on: April 24, 2018, 12:22:54 PM
Definition of recession according to National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) a recession is a significant decline in economic activity spread across the economy, lasting more than a few months, normally visible in real GDP, real income, employment, industrial production, and wholesale-retail sales'.

If you look at the explanation of the recession above then if the recession occurs in a country that has a major influence on the world of cryptos is, they owners of investments in the world cryptos will sell some of its investment to support daily life. Because if a country is in a recession their income will be reduced so they need for capital to live their lives. I'll say yes, that will be a good time to buy cryptos.
4475  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you set up limits for yourself? on: April 23, 2018, 06:11:15 PM
of course, because the gamble I make just a hobby and not as a job. because if it makes the job has a big enough risk. so it should be smart to limit the gamble better for our money
I guess gambling is a place to spend money, not a place to make money. I have not heard of anyone rich because of gambling, or there are rich people with a source of income from gambling.

Gambling is just for fun, if you get won from your bet you can save in a while for the next bet. But if you get lose from your bet you need to stop a few day and comeback for gambling again.
4476  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling: Culture on: April 23, 2018, 05:51:59 PM
Been part of out tradition on some countries which it isn't really complete if we don't see those things specially on occasions like "fiestas" where those kind of small scale gambling do exist.I do see some countries which do prohibit this but I do see most of the them do really allow this thing since it just really for the purpose of entertainment for those people who do visit or stroll into that area.
Even it is prohibited, there are exceptions when it comes into being used in it, I know that some "perya" were only allowed if that municipality permitted them, same in some wakes. Maybe it just depends on how strict the implementation since as long as people can do it without being arrested, then their fun continues.
Gambling has been around a long time and can not be destroyed and some are made as a tradition, and almost all countries ban gambling because it will get a loss and even become addicted to those who play it .. but it is difficult to ban it because gambling will always be there forever and their various ways will still gamble despite having to hide because it has become a cultural tradition of our ancestors
Gamblers will always have many ways to find that idea gambling. Gambling is not just playing casino or just rolling dice, far from that everything we guess will be made a bet. Do you hear Ludo game? in my country that  is very popular. They gamblers find a new places to serve as gambling establishments.

Gambling is not a tradition anymore, but gambling is the root of tradition. No one can afford to find a way to stop in gambling, the old way that can be replaced in a new way. Regulation and religion only as a means to awaken the gambler in a moment.
4477  Economy / Economics / Re: Cost of Living Comparison on: April 23, 2018, 12:20:31 PM
Cost of living is something everyone should consider and even more so for those of us who can make our living anywhere in the world, but there is more to life than just cost of living, you also have to consider how happy you will be in a certain place. If we look at the countries with the highest happiness ratings we'll often find that they are also among the happiest countries.
Yes, absolutely true. Talking about countries with the highest happiness rating, this is just simply because everything works perfectly well for them, they do not have to live and worry a single day about how they want to cope for the next one and so on.

It is good to always consider this a lot most especially when it comes to trying to migrate with the way things are going, since I can after all, like you have said, do my freelance thing anywhere, as a trader.

That's right, most people who live in developed countries will have high happiness compared with people who live in developing countries. Although he have a lot money but he lives in a developing country he would be less happy. The measures of happiness not by money, many other factors such as general physics and circumstances will support the level of happiness.

I live in a developing country with an average monthly income of about $ 400, for $ 400 I can spend it for a month. The cost of one's life will be determined where we live. Each region will definitely be different in spending money. However, with $ 400 I feel always less to face my daily life and I choose trading for help my income.
4478  Economy / Economics / Re: Low BTC price is good for Bitcoins at the moment. on: April 23, 2018, 11:21:32 AM
Low price of Bitcoins will attract new people to join the rally, now that a lot more people can afford to buy a ''Full Bitcoin''
There are several opinions about buying bitcoin, people who don't understand before about bitcoin will be confused about when to start investing in bitcoin.

Some people think to buy bitcoin is cheap but we cannot be sure when bitcoin is at the lowest price before rising high. There is always another speculation to make sure that bitcoin prices will be lower at that time.

And some people think a good time to buy bitcoin is when you have money and then buy it without thinking the price will drop lower when you buy. This type of person is going to decide on long-term investments, so they think buying bitcoin prices from any price will be profitable. There will always be a lot of stories about investing in bitcoin, sometime I feel bored about that.
4479  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The consequences of gambling on: April 23, 2018, 10:31:06 AM
I'm not a gambler addict and I just did try playing hi-lo betting sites but I already felt all those consequences and it's really the worst feeling when you lost. I tried to recover my losses but I still lost. That feeling stayed in me for 2 weeks. It's really makes me very weak.
It made you extremely weak because you ended up deceiving yourself into the idea you are going to get lucky with your gambling and rather hit it big than you owning up to your action and accepting that the path you are about to take, is actually the path that most of the time, you are going to be losing a whole lot.

It is normal to always that kind of feelings when you are looking for so much from gambling and you should be lucky you are beginning to realize that now before it ends up too late.
Yes.For sure everybody here has already experienced great losses which will make us think that gambling can cause us too much bad impact.But no one will quit from gambling instantly,we tend to think first how to recover losses and when lucky enough,we will win the game but if it turns on the other way around,then for sure another losses will only make us more frustrated and depressed.
There is no doubt that gambling has bad impact and it will never give you happiness even if you win some times. In my society a gambler has no respect and all the people take aside from gambler because gambling is forbidden in my country and the consequences ends behind the bars. One should think about this before entering into gambling.
Ever since gambling is always treated as negative activities, but as for me gambling is just an entertainment, a source of leisure and pastimes much more that gambling today's is a normal recreational activity of the people in every corners of the world and it should be treated not more than just for fun because too much of everything will lead to addiction and the fact of gambling addiction will leads to suffer such consequences in mental and spiritual health.
I'm not sure if you gamble for entertainment but you do gambling every day or every week. If gambling is for entertainment only, you will do it uncertainly. Addiction is one activity that someone likes to do.
4480  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Best Alternative To Coinmarketcap on: April 23, 2018, 10:00:55 AM
CoinGecko is also good. It includes Github activity and community activity as a measure to know how "healthy" a cryptocurrency is as a project in general.

Other nice complementary sites are CryptocurrencyCalendar and CryptoMiso.



I didn't see the movement cryptocurrency price in one site, Indeed coinmarketcap.com is the most popular and widely seen by users of cryptocurrency

But you are right, aside from coinmarcketcap.com I see the movement price in CoinGecko. That's a good site beside coinmarketcap.
