I had the opportunity to buy Bitcoin when the price was below $200 but I hesitated thinking it would go down even more and in the end I missed a golden chance to double up my investment. Now I am hoping for another rally to $1200 like in 2013 

I think whatever you end up with will keep your coins safe. Even a paper wallet is secure when you take proper care of it and store it in a safe place in your house plus it's virtually free. Just get whatever solution makes you happier.

I have a friend who is mining alt coins and he told me he only sells enough to cover his bills, rent and food for the month and saves the rest. He is investing in more hardware if there is profit to be made like with Ethereum. Unfortunately he lost a lot of coins on Cryptsy when they stopped paying out. I think people should be very careful where they are selling coins now as the hackers go for the big exchanges.

I am not big into politics and I am not even American but today I saw on the news Trump and Hillary won big in Ney York City and I checked online and allegedly Hillary has a big lead over Trump. Is she going to win the election? I think Hillary would be a better choice than Trump in my opinion.

I prefer Bitcoin sportsbetting to fiat sportsbetting because I like to be anonymous with my withdrawals and don't need to provide any identification. Even though the odds are lower sometimes being incognito is more important than the profit for example if online gambling is regulated in your country or you need to keep your activities secret from your family or the bank.

Yeah what the heck does he mean by real people? Aren't we all real people around here? Looks like he is talking crap out of his butt to besmear Bitcoin without paying attention that there are a lot of people who use it on a daily basis and do business online. I don't understand why he doesn't just keep his nose in his own company and stop talking about everyone else lol.

I haven't met a person who hates Bitcoin yet. I have friends who know what Bitcoin is but don't use it and are just neutral to it. I think only people who got scammed with Bitcoin probably hate the crypto a little bit now like those who lost money on Mt.Gox and Cryptsy. Most people who post nonsense about Bitcoin on the forum are probably alt coin shills. After all it's Bitcointalk not Altcointalk.

I care more about how much fun I am having while betting and not how much I am losing or winning. I have a job I don't need that profit from gambling urgently. I can bet with little amounts and still enjoy myself and don't bother keeping track of wins and losses because in the end if you are not a professional gambler who cares?

Yeah mate if the Internet goes down for real chances are we would be having very serious problems in the real world and no one would care much about Bitcoin because we may have things like a war or a global catastrophe or an alien invasion for example looming over us 

I am looking forward to testing the full version of Brave browser. The concept looks really interesting and the feature of getting paid to see ads may work well or crash and burn and I am curious to see what will happen. Still the current version has a lot of way to go.

Actually it's not a speculation Valve wants to run a beta test within the US Steam shop and then they will expand the feature to other parts of the world. As I am not a US citizen I can't participate but I have seen screenshots of people being able to buy games directly from Steam with Bitcoin.

Everything is cheaper in China even the electricity. I don't know if there is another country with cheaper electricity though. Maybe if some rich guy invests a lot of money into renewable energy like wind turbines or solar panels and try to mine alt coins with that powering his rigs he could make more money than the Chinese. By the way Chinese Yuan is fully backed by gold apparently so people may start buying Yuan instead of USD or Bitcoin.

If Bitcoin comes to Steam in Europe this will probably be the death of me because I am already buying too many games I don't even play with cash on Steam now imagine the shopping spree I would go on if Bitcoin is involved. I have a backlog of games I need to play and no time at all. Gaben hits all the right bases with the constant discounts and holiday deals that sleazy bastard 

I prefer betting little amounts on higher odds than big amounts on safe odds. I have started a challenge now in which I am betting every week on a couple of games in a parlay with really high odds 20-30+ and I am trying to see what profit - negative or positive - I will be at in December. If I win just one of these parlays I will be massively in profit, if I don't then I will let the losses pile on until I am too deep in the red and want to stop. I believe luck plays a crucial role in gambling and if I am lucky then the sky is the limit on how much I can earn.

I think there must be at least 1 person in every country in the world who has heard about Bitcoin. Now how many of them are actually using Bitcoin every day is a whole different story. I don't know how we can determine the general usage in ever country unless we hire a statistician to run a research in every country in the world and then compare the results. Who is going to fund such an endeavor? 

Yes Bitcoin can disappear in the deep pockets of greedy Bitcoin exchange SEO's which seems like a completely normal practice nowadays. Because Bitcoin is not regulated yet people can get away with it while in the fiat world if PayPal or Skrill try to pull a similar stunt they will get buried by lawsuits. I think there is a higher chance you will lose your Bitcoins in a bad investment or getting fleeced by an exchange at some point before Bitcoin completely disappears which will happen if the whole Internet goes down.

Bitcoin is a variation of digital money and as such it can't have printed bills that same way as government-issued banknotes are generated for the population. But I think paper wallets can act as paper Bitcoin money. You give someone a paper waller with the desired denomination in Bitcoin and you have transacted Bitcoin physically in the real world.

I have only used online Bitcoin wallets till now and haven't been a victim of any attacks yet. I don't take any special precautions other than running an antivirus program like Nod32. I am trying not to click on any shady links from emails and such. I think it's not the hackers who are dangerous but the Bitcoin exchanges which can always scam you and blame a random breach in security.

Haha  mate I love your sarcasm! I am putting everything into Bitcoin as well before the halving. We need to get the big bucks before it's too late right? But I am selling my house plus my computer plus my dog and cat so I am literally going all out and am going to sleep in the park waiting for the money to start pouring on me. See you guys after the halving.

I don't think you will make anything offering just basic skills on freelancing sites. The competition there is fierce and there will always be people who will try to underbid your quotas so as to steal your gigs. Not to mention no one would like to work for peanuts or under minimum wage for something like graphics design for example. Just don't believe you will find easy cash on freelancing sites.
