This is the never ending problem with an unregulate free market. If you regulate the market, you will get hate because you are quote limiting odds of something good popping out.
If you do not regulate the market, you risk being flooded with shit. Its a double sided sworded.

As of to date, XMR is still the king of alt coins my friend. Let me say that there are other proyects out there coming up with interesting stuff but let's be real tea for a second here, if you are not going to use the coin to buy commodities, your coin is pretty much dead. XMR has the anonymous side covered and is working with i2p, henceforth is the most solid anonymous alternative to Bitcoin. Other coins really haven't got a legit place to exists.

Well any legit new technology is going to be a pain in the ass to use at first, just like early ass versions of Bitcoin were a pain in the ass to use. Well in fact, Bitcoin is still a pain in the ass to use if you don't know what you are doing, it still needs improvement. Also look at that Tested video where they buy a BTC on an ATM machine and they get literally scammed. This needs work before we going 10K mainstream.

Well not really, unless you own a big amount of BTC, and most people don't even own 1 BTC.

The most inmediate way is probably Virwox by using your paypal account but the fees are insanely high.

Dude if you are risking your actual graphic card I wouldn't risk it specially during summer, unless you know for certain the coin you are mining is going to blow up and that's impossible to know, on this scenareo then it's clear you have more chances at blowing up your GPU than you have to make any relevant gains.

Scammers use dollars? Scammers use euro? scammers use any gold? Scammers gonna scam. They are going to use whatever medium they have to get gains with minimal efforts, and if they don't get caugh well, they won.

Most definitely your best chance at making any relevant amounts of BTC (aka NOT what you can get out of faucets) is pretty much offering your services similarly as you do for FIAT by working or doing whatever you do. The only other option is moving FIAT into BTC.

I have not tried Cryptsy again since my AUR dissapeared for 7 hours of of nowhere only to find out them back again when I wake up next day. That scared the shit out of me and I decided not to participate on Cryptsy again. It's good to hear they have fixed their shit and got their shit together finally but I feel it's still to early for me to decide to move all my shit in here again. Might as well stick with Poloniex.

You are missing IconicExpert on that list.

Still big upping this coin. Deserves a bigger spot for popularizing the merged mining technology. We need merchants to accept the coin, without this any coin ever is fucked. Someone needs to get in Tor and I2p and try to get services there as well.

I've been ignoring the Stellar thing as another alt coin bullshitcoin. Is this really something? can anyone sum it what the fuzz is all about? I dont stop seeing Stellar this Stellar that lately.

1 million dollar per bitcoin sounds insane to me. Yet again, 1000 dollar per bitcoin sounded insane to anyone in 2009. We never know where is the limit with disruptive technology. It could go to 0 or to 1 million, who the fuck knows tho.

Daytrading is all luck unless you have inside information to get on the nice pump and dump scams and take profit out of it. So my advice would have been: get your fiat money in BTC in small doses monthly, dollar cost average seems like the best. You can also get paid by doing services for BTC related businesses.

I wonder if Facebook is trying to somewhat buy Bitcoin as in the brand? They bought Oculus Rift and these guys seem like they have no limits on their ambition. They have shitloads of money and im sure they are looking into Bitcoin as we speak.

What is freedom tho? Free will is an illusion. Henceforth, what would we qualify as freedom? Bitcoin reduces barriers, but there is no such thing as freedom. You are always subject to the amount of BTC you have, to your hormones, and to your genetics to adquire these BTC.

Primedice is one of the oldest and most solid ones. For me guaranteed payday is everything, of course decent ammount to be paid as well. For this I trust Primedice. Dicebitco.in looks good but I do not know if they've paid a single time yet since it's new.

And what is talent? Exactly, luck.

Dollar averaging seems like the solution, spend 100 dollars monthly and get the best of both worlds. Imo 10K is too risky now, it could go both ways.

Bitcoin in itself is a risky enough investment to worry about investing in altcoins. There isn't a single altcoin besides Monero (and it would be a secondary altcoin) that's worth holding long term, absolutely no other coin has a point to exist, beyond pump and dumps (fuck my life, didn't bough on that Supercoin thing.. but then again, it's just all a lottery).
So yeah, focus on dollar averaging on BTC.
