Women in general are not interested in technology. They may understand Bitcoin and know hows it works but they may find it more difficult to use and they would probably find it easier to use cash. As Bitcoin popularity increase and as there is more adaptation we will see more and more people use Bitcoin. I predict by 2018, Bitcoin will have become mainstream.
562  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are you holding your bitcoin for a price increase? on: October 05, 2015, 02:26:44 AM
I usually sell my coins when there is a price increase (going through a pump on the charts). I make some money but more often than not I need to spend the bitcoins I have on things I need. Bitcoin I figure comes and goes and anyone using it like money is going to be rich some day.
563  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: October 05, 2015, 02:23:33 AM
I'm *trying* go to towards fulltime Bitcoin income but I still am not making enough to make ends meet. I hope once I get my loans site up I will begin making a commission from lenders.

I've heard of trading before. I haven't looked much into trading bitcoin with other altcoins but I do have experience trading Bitcoin for fiat. I am interesting in learning more at this and learn how to do more of this myself.

Everybody loses in gambling in the long run but some clever and successfull bettors can make their living from sport bets. It's like a profession. If you have great game plans and your discipline is at max, you can make a lot of money from betting. Don't mix your feelings when you bet.

I have won 7-1 sports bets on NFL that a way.

I completely agree with that, that teams and emotions should not mix.
If you are betting on your favorite team against a good team, you will lose.

You have to bet logically.
Cold as a machine.

However, I do it for practice, and entertainment.
Never for profit.

As I only bet 1-9 mBTC on something, so if I lose, I don't get bent out of shape.

My problem is when people gamble money they loose then lie to others to get more money to gamble with. For some it's a bad habit. For others it's an enjoyable passtime

HYIPs are not worth the time. The minute you find out a site is a ponzi scam the best you can do is stop investing new money and get whatever you can out of the site and consider it a loss. There is no point in worrying about collecting that money because it ends up becoming exactly the same as gambling. There are way more stable ways to make money.

I've been busy coding a personal website project so I have not been as active on this forum. I figure once I have a decent portfolio up and on the internet people will want to hire me as a coder. I also hope I profit off the application I'm programming as well.

569  Economy / Gambling / Re: Where are you Gambling right Now !? on: October 03, 2015, 09:48:33 PM
I'm doing all my gambling online ATM. I banned myself from all the casinos in my province since I was spending too much time at casinos a year ago. I mostly play slots and Pai Gow. I don't do online gambling as often as I did, but with all addictions, it can be hard to kick the habit for good.

Some people do not have that capacity. They end up borrowing/stealing money from their friends without telling them it's to go play poker. Some addicts destroy the lives of everyone around them, and I am I admit one of those people who may end up doing that. I won $3000 at a casino all at once one time and I thought it was a way to make money. Never hit that jackpot again since.
571  Economy / Gambling discussion / Everyone looses in the long run on: October 03, 2015, 08:32:01 PM
Let's be honest. Gambling should only be considered for entertainment purposes only. If you are in need of quick cash, doing hard dirty work is more often than not better than hitting up the casino sites. I see way too many people in this section try to justify their gambling habits by saying they have strategies to always win. Others on this forum will go as far as to say that they are professional gamblers, and they always win. You're fooling no one and you look stupid.

All the gambling addicts I knew in real life who claimed to win from casinos all the time had serious mental issues. I went gambling with that guy once, and he ended up blaming me for him loosing at Pai Gow poker, a game that's 100% chance.

And just to let you guys know, ALL the casinos in my jurisdiction say the same things in public advertising campaigns. So far, my sig campaign manager has not PM'ed me telling me to quit bashing gambling. Nobody wins gambling, so lets stop pretending anyone here makes a living gambling online.
572  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you play loteries ,did you won something on: October 03, 2015, 08:24:45 PM
I used to play Keno, which is a lottery ticket based game. You pick ten numbers and there are different rules of winning a prize. I used to win quite frequently, but now I barely win when I do decide to play. It's always an option available to me if I only want to spend a dollar on entertainment.
573  Economy / Speculation / Re: quiet before the storm. $18000 coming! on: October 03, 2015, 08:07:05 PM
There is no way this is going to happen anytime soon. I predict it will be at least another 10 years before Bitcoin becomes that valuable. As it stands right now, we're stable for now until the blocksize limit debate is figured out. Personally I think XT is a joke of an altcoin but who am I to say.
574  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Would you consider this as a possible threat to Bitcoin? on: October 03, 2015, 07:00:59 PM
I don't see this as a threat to Bitcoin itself, but a threat to the miners who are not keeping up to date with the technology. What is a threat to bitcoin is the price (the fact that it could crash) and the slow adaptation rate.
575  Economy / Exchanges / Re: The best bitcoin debit card on: October 02, 2015, 06:31:14 PM
As Mickeyb said: Bit-X announced some new cards!

If you buy the 'Named' card, it'll cost 19.90 USD/EUR/GBP (issuance, shipping and activation). From then on, the only fee is the ATM fee of 4.95 USD/EUR/GBP. The first year comes with no monthly fees and from the second an active fee (minimum of 1 transaction in a month) is 0.95 USD/EUR/GBP and the inactive fee (no transactions in a month) is 4.95 USD/EUR/GBP. Those don't apply until year 2.

The 'Named White' card costs 99 USD/EUR/GBP (issuance, shipping and activation) and it includes all monthly fees for the card's life. The only fee is a 3.95 USD/EUR/GBP fee if you use an ATM.

You'll also benefit from cashback rewards. 10 satoshi for every 0.01 USD/EUR/GBP you spend through the card!

Here is the official thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1006153.0

Check out the guide too for information on everything!

Bit-x is definitely an interesting option. I'm not into prepaid credit cards, but if I were to get one I would go with Bit-X. They're pretty much the best in the industry.
576  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: BTCjam - Any Thoughts or Experiances on: October 02, 2015, 06:27:03 PM
I think a lending website that works on the concept of trusting nobody except reputable escrows. The amount of borrowers of your website who are con artists is staggering. In addition, I think a social lending website should be able to develop a mechanism that enables the sale of ownership of debts. Any information would be provided and a good hacker/detective can probably recover a purchased debt. There is far too much leverage for borrowers on BTCJam.

Appreciate the feedback. We are working hard on getting great borrowers & I think over our growth we have made advancements here. Fraud rates are down which is good thing. As blockchain tools/services keep growing I think one day something you mentioned might be possible.
I'm actually developing my own website which operates on the concept of trusting no one. If I were on your dev team I would be looking into a way to crack down on scammers and require collateral to sell if lenders default. There should be consequences for defaulting.

So many people are trying to scam others for Bitcoin. This is so sad. At least coinmixer doesn't have too many complaints against them.

580  Economy / Service Discussion / How much do you make with your current signature campaign? on: September 29, 2015, 11:27:27 PM
As the title says. I am currently earning around. BTC.012 per week from my campaign. I've been busy coding and trying to get my career started in that direction. I've heard of people making $500 a month just from campaigns. How much are you earning? Is there any Legendary account owners why are able to make rent by posting here?
