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.
4883  Other / Off-topic / Re: When is Bitcoins going to die? on: September 27, 2016, 08:59:09 AM
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.
4884  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is unpredictable job. on: September 26, 2016, 11:08:08 AM
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.
4885  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Controlling your temper in gambling on: September 26, 2016, 11:05:49 AM
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

Seems you have a hard time  on controlling you temper there pal.  Grin .. 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
4886  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit Gambling. on: September 26, 2016, 11:02:50 AM
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.
4887  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: September 26, 2016, 10:58:20 AM
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.
4888  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Would you buy a hardware wallet? on: September 26, 2016, 10:54:36 AM
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.
4889  Other / Off-topic / Re: Who is the Founder of Bitcoin?! on: September 26, 2016, 10:51:47 AM
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.
4890  Other / Off-topic / Re: How much do you earn per day on: September 26, 2016, 10:43:35 AM
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.
4891  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Ebay/Paypal's ridiculous fees on: September 26, 2016, 10:35:03 AM
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.
4892  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin down to 500? on: September 26, 2016, 10:30:11 AM
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.
4893  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why bitcoin rate is stable since june 2016 on: September 26, 2016, 10:09:01 AM
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.
4894  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is big problem in using of bitcoin on: September 26, 2016, 09:55:34 AM
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.

4896  Economy / Economics / Re: Best way to manage money? on: September 26, 2016, 09:39:49 AM
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.
4897  Other / Off-topic / Re: 20 Bitcoins or 1 satoshi multiplied time 2 everyday for 30 days on: September 26, 2016, 09:34:48 AM
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
4898  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it possible to "Hack" a known bitcoin address? on: September 26, 2016, 09:28:22 AM
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.
4899  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you accept bitcoin as your salary? on: September 26, 2016, 09:10:33 AM
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.
4900  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to collect BTC ?? on: September 26, 2016, 09:06:08 AM
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)

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.
