It's depend. If my salary received in US Dollar but can exchange it into bitcoin, maybe i want try to receive my salary into bitcoin. So, i can select my salary in USD or in BTC.
I would'nt like to receive my salary in bitcoin because your salary is what you pay the bills with i suppose and if you want to convert bitcoin back then that costs alot of money too. But have you thought about the risk that it can take. You can lose one month of a salary if ever a big fall happen. If it doesnt go so down it will be a big lost. Indeed but I would love to receive bitcoin in salary though still. It's a big risk I take but can potentially earn you tons of money if all happens right so I think I would take this risk. Theres no guarantee though that you would make huge profits on bitcoin since we dont know what would be the price in the future. If you intend to accept your salary in bitcoin form then the price goes down then you effort and all of your hardwork would be useless . Well, its might happen or not.

I do believe even with some people really hating bitcoin, because they joined the buble expecting to it reach 2000 or 5000 dollars in weeks, something that hasnt happened, besides those people only corporations loosing their costumers to bitcoin as wester union and some others companies those can be unhappy with bitcoin but well, the future has arrived, bitcoin.
I think that is a childish reason and a selfish reason why people hates bitcoin. And we know that the price of bitcoin is not really stable. So in able to get hurt. Don't hope and expect too much for the price of bitcoin because no one can tell what is going to be the exact price of bitcoin. And for the people who hates bitcoin. I guess they are the ones who sees bitcoin as threat to their business. Exactly and you got it right, people who would definitely hate bitcoin would those business owners that would be affected on bitcoin existence since the competition would add up and sees that bitcoin would be a big rival against them but overall there no thing that we could possibly hate bitcoin in any way.

I think that btc does not die soon. It's possible that the price will drop or an alternate digital currency will overtake it. But it will struggle for existence.
Bitcoin wont die there is so much money in bitcoin that it cant die that easily it will be atleast years from now that it will still exist and I wonder how high the value can actually go to. I cant tell how far it will go but I know this is not its limit. Many things will happen including projects that will open up for the purpose of making bitcoin more popular in many countries. Most of us have the same perception about bitcoin and majority of us here have high hopes for bitcoin to last for more longer years since its already developing and adoption is increasing and we cant stop that to happen, in fact the more its adopted the more would increase its price and somehow it would make bitcoin last longer.

It is unpredictable and I would never advice someone to do it full time. Trading comes with a lot of risk. Too much if you ask me. Therefore I would advice to trade what you can afford to lose and having side job too, just in case all trading assets are going down.
There are a few people in my area and they are doing trade full time and I have noticed that they are making a huge amount of money with that trade and I never heard that they have lost money in there. So I think expert traders can go full time for trade. Yes there are many people who benefit from trade, but we also can not rely on trade to work full time. Because the income earned is uncertain and it is not good to use as a primary income. I am sure the professional trade definitely has a definite work in addition to income from trading. I agree with you since we cant really fully rely on trading earning because we wont know when the prices would move in able to make us profits and also we couldnt assure if we could win or lose a certain trade thats why its risky to rely on it on daily basis. Trading is really an unpredictable job because of price movements.

I do tend to rage hard when I gamble alot and lose. I punch the laptop monitor thinking it will help the wager go my way but it doesn't. I should really stop because I tend to also rip out my hair when I getting close to losing and I am thinking if I continue that I will be bald very soon. ![Lips sealed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/lipsrsealed.gif) Seems you have a hard time on controlling you temper there pal. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) .. if you dont want to experience these things then quit gambling because the further you would lose the more damage you would make, in your laptop or any things around you and even you could hurt yourself. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Hello guys I am addicted to gambling.How can I quit this?
Hello. There might be different ways to quit gambling but, as for me, you need to find something to replace gambling. Something that also involves some risk and enjoyment of victory. I think you need to take up some sport activity and try to become the best in it. Sport also involves risk of being damaged or of just losing the game and get excited if you win. To find something else to do is the right choice, but I think replacing gambling is incorrect since you will just become addicted to this new activity, whichever it is, that is why is important to receive professional help in order to overcome the reasons that push you to become addicted to gambling. the activity you choose as a replacement is important not the replacement itself. you should only choose an activity that is good for you and helps you grow not a bad addictive other activity. for example that replacement can be excercising or some sports that is really good for your health and also good to forget about gambling. I think you are missing my point even if you chose an activity that in theory is good for you, if you don’t get professional help you could get addicted to almost anything and any addiction is bad for you. For example exercising is good for you, but some people have become addicted to exercising and that has brought a lot of problems to their lives. You have good point almost all if you abuse your self you will sick in the end so before it will happen do something to fix your life.. If you can control your self from being addicted you can gamble but for past time only not for making profit because it can trigger your self to be greed. The main thought here is everything in this world is being abused would surely give some bad effect on you thats why we should do things moderately in able to balance . Self control would be a very big help especially when you are playing gambling because if you are aware with your decisions and good money management then you could surely fight addictiveness on gambling.

because you think that it can make you endless money but you actually would lose a lot of money in a short time
this the common idea coming from those very lazy people who loves to earn in a easy ways thinking that they can easily doubled their moeny in such a way of gambling but unfortunately ending it up losing it and feel sorry. We just have to respect their idea, maybe we will just make our good comment here if that person comes back and blame gambling for ruining his life, the thing is there is no easy money and we cannot win in gambling in the long run, it should be realize by every gambler early. Well we have different perceptions and motivations in life and sometimes we do create some non sense aims like doing gambling hoping for big money so easily thats why most people do get easily broke in the end because of their lack of knowledge in this kind of industry. Gambling is design on this way and remember its business not a money milking machine.

I dont like to put all of my coins into a wallet so i dont think i would buy a hardware wallet and that is just because i know how bad the security of the wallets are.
I disagree that the security of the bitcoin wallet providers online has bad security at all. Do you think blockchain has a bad security? I guess you are just putting out a statement without basis but I can't blame you if you think that online wallets does have poor security. For me, I won't go to buy hardware wallet it is just going to cost me another bucks. You are right the blockchain as a example has a good security but it stays a online wallet, who knows what will happen. With a paper wallet you are safe from hackers, a hardware wallet is okay but I would never buy it. in my opinion it is more secure and easy to use blokchain wallet, I suggest enable all existing security to avoid incidents that we do not want How could it ever be considered safer to store your bitcoins online than offline, i wish people would stop posting shit they know nothing about. Newbies reading this may actually take your shit advice seriously and end up losing their coins to a hack. Correct, this is somehow misleading especially to newbies out there and believing all of these things that are mostly answered here and that would possibly lead to a loss. Online and offline wallet do differ in security basis. I could say that offline wallets would be much better than online.

Bitcoin supposed to be anonymous, that's why even the founder won't show up because he/she knows what does it mean to be anonymous.
You are right, if hes project is completely anonymous then for sure hes anonymous too and also he wouldnt intend to show himself on public because of many reasons, one , his life would be in danger because he would surely arrested by governments on creating bitcoin and there are lots of things and thats why until now theres no one knows where is satoshi nakamoto nowadays.

I do earned around 0.00001 daily from fucent site. Though I join bitcointalk 4 days ago hope to increases my earning.
1000 satoshi daily from faucet is nothing bro its like a waste and which faucet you use.I think you choosen the wrong faucets because still with faucets you can earn a bit more than that.But good that you joined here,you need to spend some time here to learn and may be get some earning oportunities. 1k satoshi a day is really not worth for your effort, but the good thing is you are here now in these forum and for sure you could earn more than with that just search here and you would surely find some good stuffs , 1 thing is joining signature campaigns you could possibly earn 5k- 30k per post depend on your rank which is far more better than those faucets. Currently im earning 0.006 daily with my campaign which is not bad at all.

Ebay is ridiculous you pay alot of money to the company itself. The same goes for paypal they take such big cuts it's unbelievable. I always refuse to use paypal nowadays then I rather use my creditcard directly instead of trough paypal who takes all your money.
Because it is their business to charge their users ridiculous high fees. And the customers that able to complain to their customer service and once you are going to complain to them you can't do anything with it and what they are going to do is that they are going to show you their terms and agreement. So I stopped using paypal already. You are right no matter how hard you complain to them about their fees they would really show their terms and same as yours i experienced such situation because im one of their complainants regarding with their huge fees. Im thankful now that bitcoin was invented , and no doubt i easily switch.

this now bitcoin price still stable in 600 dollar every one bitcoin, is very long can down until reach under 500dollar because next trend bitcoin price can up
i don't think that bitcoin down until $500 because its really hard to get that rate but no one can knows if it can happen or not, better hope that the rate will not go down too far from $595. i think it will be around in $595-$598 for the down and i hope its not down too deep and will gets increase in next week. but its only my prediction and i hope its gonna happen to go increase for this week. Going down from $600 to $500 is just 16.6% down. That is very little in terms of Bitcoin. I know that it may seem much, but taking into account the volatility of Bitcoin it is not that unexpected. Bitcoin has seen huge drops and rises, and one have to be able to live with that to play this game. You are right, everyone who engage with bitcoin should not be surprised if bitcoins price would go down or up because it really a normal thing for bitcoin. We should expect deep price drops and huge inflation spikes everything is possible on bitcoin. $500 wouldnt hurt soo much though.

Can you please tell in brief that why bitcoin rate is stuck at around $600. I am confused wether to buy bitcoin or sell. I am very conscious about its future. So please stamp your own views here.
IF bitcoins price is stuck in $600 price then theres no sellers and theres no buyers since the supply and demand isnt there thats why the price wouldnt move too much. If i were you dont worry on selling your coins , for me its better to buy as of now on bitcoin price its cheap already.

I find sometimes that the blockchain is really constipated and it can take ages for my payments to be confirmed so something needs to happen to get the blockchain moving faster and I don't know if developers are working on this or not but it would be nice to get a fix on it I think.
What was the longest time you waited for a conformation? I'm asking because it never was an issue for me: all the transactions were going almost immediately or were taking 20 minutes max. Just make sure you've included a decent transaction fee and then it should go fast. This doesn't mean you should pay big money to have a fast transaction, in most cases 10k sats (which is $0.06) is enough. It really depends on what wallet are you using , for me im using blockchain.info wallet which automatically deducts fee from each transfer , as you said confirmation/transfer times are not too slow just like what you said 20 mins would be the max but sometime i do experiencing much longer like for 30-45 mins, i dont really know why but the most important thing for me that i could able to recieve the money.

I think you should get a list of the things where you will spend your money, and try to avoid wasting it on unnecessary expenses.
therefore I strongly recommend for all people to have a note to the financial manage them. they should have a black list to something they should not buy. and of course they have to write down the maximum limits spending money they could each day. it will be very important If you can write it down the better because you will be able to check and follow what is written, actually it is not hard to manage you money if you have the will to do it, we need to have our goal and do it without hesitation, the temptation is the main hindrance to success so we need to beat it. Even if we dont have list we could able to manage our money because our mind is like a computer which could automatically remember the things that we must suppose to do. The main thing here is our emotion because temptations are everywhere and if we have a good self control then we could able to avoid it.

If I were to hire you, would you prefer 14 Bitcoin for one months work, or one Satoshi the 1st day, then that Satoshi turns into 2 the second, then 4 the third, then 8, and so on for 31 days. Don't do the calculations, just gun to your head quick answer.
i would surely choose 14btc for one months work only compare on choosing 1 satoshi doubling in 31 days , it wouldnt even touch on 1 btc , try to calculate it, if you are continuing the work for longer years i would choose 1 satoshi per day doubling forever then i would be rich. lol ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

you cant hack bitcoins away from an address from the bitcoin network side. (its why people trust bitcoin)
but your friend obviously had a computer or phone to send transactions. so gaining access to that device is something you should talk to his family about.
This one, you could recover them through computer. No chance to do it with any other method. Agree, this method would possibly work or find some left behind passwords from his pc or mobile , bruteforcing wallet addresses/ wallets would be impossible as of now since no one could ever do that and thats the good thing about bitcoin thats why be sure to keep passwords and keys . Feel sad about the situation of his friend though.

Bitcoin as salary, i dont think so! As we all know bitcoin price is volatile. And almost store here in my country doesnt accepting bitcoin in terms of buy goods and services. Let us stay at it is that bitcoin may used in the online services but not applied to be as salary.
You are right bitcoin wouldnt be considered on using it on making it as a salary to workers on physical worl because price of bitcoin is to volatile and for sure no company would intend to purchase bitcoin just to make it as a salary for their workers they would surely suffer loss. maybe for now, bitcoin will not be our salary because bitcoin for now is not already accepted it by company, but who know in future bitcoin will be one of the most currency that all people using for their payment, it could be happen and if this is happen, then i will be happy to accept bitcoin as my salary. There will never be a time where all people will use Bitcoin. That's simply impossible since not everyone is in need of Bitcoin, and not everyone is willing to use it. If we at some point manage to get 1% of the world population to use Bitcoin, then it's already a great achievement. That's were our focus should be at. It's realistic and achievable in the coming 5-10 years. I certainly agree with your statement bitcoin is not simply for everyone because it is also complicated for others, only those educated people will use and understand bitcoin and they are mostly who have the interest because they are doing a regular transaction. This is the major thing which bitcoin couldnt be used anytime soon on making it as a salary to company workers because not all people are already aware of bitcoin and some even didnt hear about it and if they intend to accept bitcoin, the question is how do they gonna spend it directly? then for sure they would exchange it to fiat.

there's many ways to get BTC. - faucet - trade - mining - campaign - ads on blog/website - do some task - gambling (i dont suggest this one, too many risk if dont have godly luck ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) ) Faucets too low to get bitcoin mining hard enough yes gambling not recommended is very risky I think that the best way is trade and campaign. Want to add,. mining is soo hard since you would need high amounts to start with it and mostly dont have the capacity to buy mining rigs, faucets are just waste of time and doesnt worth for your effort, gambling is risky and also trading but you could do smart trades to be profitable, signature campaigns is the most common way to earn bitcoin without any risk.
