Do some Amazon mTurk then sell your Amazon credit via Purse.io, you'll get straight up BTC but at a discount to your Amazon credit. But hey if you believe in BTC like I do and that the price of BTC will keep going up - then it's a very good idea.
other than that you can sell your services or your skills, you can sell goods online by adding the price for you to profit. there are many ways you can do to get money out of bitcoin.
In my opinion earning bitcoin is easy through faucets, which doesn't require any investment. At the same such income cannot fulfil our needs. To have an earning which at least help to pay few bills we need to think some unique methods of making money. One such is the creation of online stores accepting bitcoin. It need more money and takes years to be popular but the profiting is an assured one.
4502  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Technology on: February 07, 2017, 04:48:05 AM
Is possible to upgrade the blockchain technology solving issues like the transactions taking too much time to finish without compromise the currency we have now or without creating a new version devaluing the currently one?

Yes, Segregated Witness is the technology you want to know, it only requires a soft fork to enlarge the block size to 2MB, the opposite technology is bitcoin unlimited, which requires a hard fork, it will devalue the bitcoin price. But SegWit is only supported by 20% miners, we will wait for 50% to get SegWit soft fork.
Segwit is the technology that's to make bitcoin move forward towards growth. As most users mentioned fork is the better if the blocksize gets increased. Its not getting support from more miners just due to the mining difficulty they experience. Mining will be more profitable for large scale miners, where small mining farms won't get much profit. For this reason blocksize increase is not supported much, which is the cause for transaction and confirmation delay.

i lost 1 btc at the old edition ,  it was very hard to win and no provably fair as now
When it comes to gambling loss happens with everyone, you have lost just one bitcoin. There are users who have lost very big number of bitcoins. Recent example is wonton, who even after winning 300btc lost around 50btc on the consecutive game. So its not with the edition that you lost, your strategy might have gone wrong or you might be unlucky.

Satoshi Nakamoto is some where around and watching the Bitcoin Community from the shadow.
Ask Satoshi any questions in this thread ? Deffinitely Satoshi will answer all your questions.

What's the key factor that driven you towards the creation of such an innovative technology, when people were thinking of several other inventions. The better part is the implementation of the technology in all sectors, which makes it an innovation which has got endless value.
4505  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin can not replace fiat on: February 06, 2017, 08:37:30 AM
For today to talk about the replacement sounds wired, cause of just some little present of people on the Earth know about bitcoin. I think after mass adoption of bitcoin and other crypto currencies such option will be possible and paper money will go in the past. But it needs many years to something like that to happen.
Yeah, it's weird, but that what some people wants, they think if fiat will be replace by bitcoin, the world would be a better place to live. I believe we should be more matured so we will have an idea of what would be the world would become if fiat will be out of circulation. That sounds crazy if it will happen and i don't think even if the value of my bitcoins is big, it will still be worth to spend what I need.
As said fiat won't get replaced by bitcoin. Always bitcoin or other virtual currencies act as an alternative for fiat, but never becomes mainstream. Only certain countries will officially adopt bitcoin as their currency in the future where population will be very low.
4506  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you know when to stop? on: February 06, 2017, 08:06:39 AM
when gamble I always prepare the profit target, I stop gambling when I lost and my money runs out or I already benefit in targeting

Yes these two things are good in knowing when to stop gambling. If you think that you had won enough already then just stop and if you think that there's no way to keep on winning and gain some winnings then just simply stop.
Knowing these two things is the difficult task. One in ten has a fulfilment that they've earned enough, others just try of earning more without the fear of losing as they have enough amount in the backing. If there is no way to make winning too people just with hope try to compensate the losses happened in the past.
4507  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel shameful for being a gambler? on: February 06, 2017, 07:33:06 AM
People will have different feeling while playing gambling because they will feel shy to share the news to his friends and family when the won money through gambling. Because many people have feeling that gambling is an illegal activity.
That's the biggest problem of today's society. They don't let people enjoy their life or let them do something they actually wanna do. I think the people who say to you that gambling is bad, illegal , etc they should ignore those people and enjoy their life.

Gambling and drugs and all the other things that are illegal are bad for the individual and/or for the society. Some believe that one must be able to do whatever they want to do as long as it doesn't affect other people. For example, one can do drugs and gamble whole day long as long as they don't hurt other people. It's their body, let them do whatever they want to do, right? That's what people must be thinking. When democracy was implemented, freedom was taken in a much different way than the government expected. Today, freedom means the sky is the limit. Freedom means that doing whatever you want without anyone interrupting you at all.

That's the very reason why people say "YOLO" and then do some shady activity that might put them to jail.
What is illegal in one country is legal in another, so you can't really say illegal things are bad. Smoking is legal and it's bad. Marihuana is illegal in most country and still it's been used in medicine. Gambling is not bad if you can control yourself, but if you can't than it is bad. Also, you are wrong, if you have problem with drugs and gambling, it wont affect only you and your body, it will affect others as well(your closest family)

Yes that is true, gambling has been viewed by different country differently.  Some even ban gambling while other use it to fund the government stash thru tax and other fees.  Gambling is not bad and there is nothing to be ashamed of if you are doing it. As long as you do not affect other people negatively and have yourself sane all the time. Else, it would be bad and the person should be ashamed of himself not because of gambling but because of him unable to control himself.
Different countries have different opinion on gambling as said. There are few countries where lottery is officially permitted but gambling websites were banned. So nothing is there to feel for being a gambler, if you feel ashamed of being a gambler you too need to be ashamed of being a human.
4508  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will bitcoin trap more new user in coming years on: February 06, 2017, 06:45:53 AM
As of now bitcoin have been found attracting more and more users continuously. By the last year end bitcoin's market capital was found to reach high of all time. Op needs to Change the thread title that will bitcoin traps more users. Nothing is here to be trapped just need to get the attention of public to realize the importance of digitization and growth.
4509  Economy / Speculation / Re: it IS time for rise on: February 05, 2017, 08:14:25 AM
I dont see a lot of strength in the rise, maybe its just the start and we have an all time high, or we go further down than 900, we will see shortly. But this rise is more steady

The volumes are pretty high - at around $150 Mn. And this is after the fake chinese volumes have been eliminated. When we rise with strong trading volumes, a support base is usually formed at these levels.
The volume is high enough eliminating the fake volumes of bitcoin in exchanges. But the inspection has given bitcoin a stability with good support base. By the ongoing price variation the floor price is expected to be above $1000 and move towards the ATH.
4510  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: February 05, 2017, 08:00:41 AM
there's no wrong with the gambling.

if no gambling, bitcoin industries how to survive?
Gambling is not the only one industry that is using bitcoin, i think majority of bitcoin is being used in darknet marketplaces however gambling is also one of the biggest bitcoin industry.

Without gambling also there will be bitcoin.
Other than gambling bitcoin is used in lot other industries. Gambling too contributes a major portion in the circulation of bitcoin. Early days other than trading, bitcoin is much used in gambling. Later on things got changed as a potential investment and for other needs. Gambling is not wrong whether its done with bitcoin or fiat.
4511  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What would be the best legal / illegal ways to earn Bitcoin? on: February 05, 2017, 07:42:08 AM
I think it would be interesting talk.

There are many legal ways to earn bitcoin. Like Collecting satoshi in Faucets, trading, mining, by completing task on websites, Signature campaign, Social campaign, designing logo, creating signature code, managing threads, managing campaign and etc..
Illegal ways to earn bitcoin. Trading drugs, weapons in darknet, Hyip, and Hacking.
I don't know if gambling is illegal or legal way to earn bitcoin.
In countries where bitcoin usage itself under their own risk can be considered a illegal way. So earning and trading too is illegal. Several countries similar to UAE have ban on gambling which can be accessed with the help of bitcoin. So depending upon the country legal and illegal earning differs.
4512  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The reason why people do not get Bitcoin. on: February 05, 2017, 07:14:34 AM
Those people who do not get bitcoin, perhaps, they are lack of knowledge about the information in bitcoin. or even they had an idea still their eyes are closed unto it.

Only little were known to bitcoin and other digital currency. Even Information Technology people are just feeling new to the bitcoin community. So it takes more time to reach the common public who lack in technical knowledge. Governments showing interest towards their own digital asset help people understand about digital currencies and start using the one they are convenient with.
4513  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin is banned on: February 05, 2017, 06:33:28 AM
How can bitcoin become global when not so few countries, including Russia and China, ban it?
What is the source of this claim  Huh
China and Russia actually love to use bitcoin and china is the heaven for bitcoin miners. No any country have banned use of bitcoin, if some government want to ban than they can just ban local bitcoin trading platform. Nobody can stop/ban bitcoin transactions and nobody can shutdown whole bitcoin network.
Yeah, China is the heaven for bitcoin users and miners. Recently just because of them a small chaos took place due to fake volumes. No country has made official bans on bitcoin, Russia announced bitcoin use as a crime and now considering the technology it has proposed for the use in financial administration.
4514  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When did you start gambling? (Because of BCT Promotion?) on: February 04, 2017, 08:44:05 AM
In the past used to take part in offline gambling along with friends as the bet amount seems to be high. After being a part of bitcoin and other digital currency started online gambling in which even a small amount can be used.
4515  Economy / Speculation / Re: What is the maximum price in the next 12-18 mo? on: February 04, 2017, 08:07:46 AM
As most users described I too think we might get closer to $1200. If situations were found good we'll reach $2000 to the maximum. Else the price could be seen to increase periodically. Possibly this year the price might stay above $1000 for a long with minor variations.
4516  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin's TOYS, do you like it??? on: February 04, 2017, 07:21:27 AM
Toys were the attraction for kids, these days kids don't involve into the earning of bitcoin. Personally for the purpose of making bitcoin popular its good to add it to the accessories that teenagers use it commonly.
4517  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin on: February 04, 2017, 06:59:24 AM
No more users? Are you kidding? Everyday there are many people buying and using bitcoin. How can bitcoin will run out of users? About the fluctuation. Actually i love it. It could go up and down. But its worth of my time and money. You can earn huge profit from it.
Yes eveyday many people, corporations that make investing on bitcoin and
 there are people who building projects for bitcoin usage become more easy
 today is era of digital currency where every one can participate in bitcoin
they can become miners, traders, developers or investors.
Every day the user profiles were increasing little by little though it is decentralized as well don't have an assurance of tomorrow. People getting into it due to the increased pricing as well the increased profiting investment. Also the increasing acceptance by several merchants make common men to start using bitcoin for their goodness.
4518  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Still getting hit with 1+ hour confirm times, sometimes 6+ hours... on: February 04, 2017, 06:40:35 AM
..so nothing is going to be done... STILL?  Roll Eyes
I think something must be done. We must decrease block size to 0.5 mb
You will be waiting for over 3 hours for a single confirmation and sometimes it will be going over 12 hours..... because you're decreasing the blocksize.  Roll Eyes
Then we increase block size to 1 mb and all will be happy  Cheesy
Increasing blocksize just for the faster confirmation is not good. If blocksize is increased several other conflicts gets initiated. Based upon this several hard discussions were going on just without increasing blocksize.
4519  Economy / Speculation / Re: Sell or wait? on: February 03, 2017, 06:52:20 AM
I prefer to wait, the coin value is still increasing it is now 1000$ so, for sure it will rise more.
If you are in a plan to make the sell after $1000 then it looks like the right time. Now it has crossed $1020 and nothing gives an assurance so to benefit more and more. Based upon the unpredictable nature of bitcoin as well other digital currency anytime price could fall or increase. Better is to make the best move to hold the profit.
4520  Economy / Speculation / Re: Say bye to Triple Digits on: February 03, 2017, 06:35:35 AM
People have started to speculate of getting hold in the four digit value for a long. Everything is uncertain with bitcoin which makes people to believe in it. As the price variation has been going without falls , expect a fall soon. It would be good if the price stays in the four digit price even after the fall.
