Most gamblers experience bad things for their lives. There maybe a few who can benefit from gambling, making them enjoying life like god of gambler (in movie). But we can't deny, many incidents of crime which one of them based gambling addiction.
yes i agree the only one thing that gambling affect in a good way is that decreasing a stress from the stress of our daily activity.but mostly gambling is really not making a good effect in life. A break from daily routine is good to get refresh and feel alive again. Gambling provides this opportunity if someone is not after profits. Else, situations get even uglier than before. I don't gamble on regular basis but whenever I do, it is with my friends and we have food, music, gossips and bets. It's fun. |

OP I don't advise you to play any form of gambling if you can't control yourself. Dust gambling or whatever is no good because you'll still have the bug, you could relapse & go back into your old ways.
I think cold turkey is the way for you bro.
all you need when it comes to quit from gambling are a strong motivation. yes when you are motivated by something that you really love more than anything like your parents or your wife . that time you could do anything to completely leave gambling habit and start a new life story without gambling which considered harmful for you. People become truly strong when they have someone precious to protect. If a person really wants to give up on gambling then he must stop thinking about just himself. He ought to think about people who are worried about him and care about him. This will surely help him in getting rid of this curse. |

Recently put on the victory in the UEFA Champions League Real Madrid. But I do not know the result until next year. Most often it's on football matches that I make bets.
I love football more than anything and Real Madrid is love. Now that MSN is broken, I wonder how is Barca gonna compete Real Madrid. Also, I am happy for Neymar that he is no more under Messi's shadow (don't mind me getting off the topic). I have always put my bets on Real and now I think I can win all my money back... :p |

I do not think bitcoin will replace fiat money, because sometimes fiat money there is a historical value that concerns the country, for example Indonesia where money will always be pictured heroes or historic places. Besides the bitcoin that is always changing and the government can not control it is certainly not suitable to build a country's economy.
When gold was used for buying and selling and then fiat was introduced for the first time, gold was stored as an asset than but never got replaced. Now bitcoins are here threatening paper money but this time there are chances in long term that fiat may die forever. |

That's a great move for Vietnam to finally legalize the bitcoin like Japan a while back ago their successfully legalized cryptocurrencies and we all know that Japan have a strong economy I think more country will realize the potential of accepting bitcoin more people will favor for this.
So we can expect that bitcoin will continue to rise and spread all over the world.
Finally, Vietnamese government is paying attention towards digital currencies. I have heard that it would be legalized by 2018 and for the time being, Ministry of Justices and State Bank of Vietnam is just going through the pros and cons of all digital assets. Obviously, main focus will be Bitcoins. |

The people behind Ransomware might decide that Bitcoin is not anonymous enough and they might request people to pay them in another Alt coin, for example : Monero
Bitcoin is currently used as the default payment option, because it can be easily acquired by the people that has to pay the ransom. These people also request Bitcoin, because it can be used at more merchants to buy goods and to pay for services.
Are we talking about WannaCry, I think it is and old news now. SambaCry and one of the latest that belongs to its family and is made for windows, its name just skipped from my mind are new in market now. Anyways, never pay the ransom especially not in bitcoins. |

I assume sooner or later Uber will be issuing it's own tokens for the payments within its platform. It would make things easier.
Oh… a bitcoin fan you said? That’s really nice, and you expect them to start issuing out a tokens ? Man that’s really crazy. Do you think the CEO will just come up with decision like that, without letting the board of directors know about it ? Don’t you know there are people that makes decisions in the company and not just the CEO, and these people might as well not be bitcoin fans. There is a great possibility that this might happen. Without the support of other seniors, it is not possible for CEO alone to take such big actions. Nobody can risk the grudge of his employees and other colleagues. Also, if Uber has accepted bitcoins that implies, many of them are already in love with bitcoins. |

my reason was only 1 for investment in bitcoin, high prices make me interested in investing in bitcoin.
Well there are so many advantages for people depending upon what they use bitcoin for. Top 3 reasons which I feel are as follows :- - Part time/ Full time income through different sources like Trading, Joining different camping, Escrow services, Freelancing etc - Easy to transfer btc form one country to other within few minutes with some fees to be paid for transfer. - New opportunities for so many people . Its a boon for unemployed and also for people who want to do something of their own and want to quit their jobs, I know people who have left their full time job and are into bitcoin related activities now. Without doubt Bitcoin makes much easier the relation between employer and employee, we can skip the greedy banks and save more money by paying less fees. Unfortunatelly many of us are already having a difficult time to exchange our Bitcoins into fiat and vice-versa. The regulamentations will come sooner or later for everyone or most countries and the situation will become worse for Bitcoin users. It was too good to be true with many advantages, but won't last forever. I think btc can last long,as long as it can be uses by almost everyone who are in technology. I don't see yet btc falling even there are lot's of alts and even in its split. Innovation and developments in btc will soon to happen for it is acquired already by businessess that are in technology industries. Yep! It is really absurd to give a statement about the death of bitcoins. They have not yet bloomed at their best. They have just started their journey towards moon. They are definitely going to be soon used in businesses and I guess soon there will be bitcoin banks as well. They are ever lasting innovation. |

Is it a currency really? or it´s current value comes from being a store of value asset? the use cases as a currency can´t explain nearly part of the value of BTC. But speculation and store of value...
most of bitcoin holders treat this as an investment not really using it as currency because of the current movement and the value really placing investors to a good position those who got in earlier and already got a lots of bitcoin for sure they are already millionaires and having a great time but even they got a lots of it I think they are not considering it as currency but an asset instead. Yes! This is latest trend in the crypto market where bitcoins are no longer used as a currency rather they are treated as investments. People are collecting bitcoins so that they can treat them like assets in the near future to fulfill their dreams and live a life full of all luxuries. Even for me, bitcoins are no longer just currency. |

Steady income can be achieved by many ways but according to me i am quite sure that its not possible with bitcoins right now, These days due to lot changes in rates makes the trading unpredictable.
Indeed! For steady income you need a source that produces steady profits and this s yet not possible with digital currencies. They have unstable natures; the prices are fluctuating all the time. For steady income, we need a day job but for grand profits I am investing into bitcoins. |

My prediction would be bitcoin will replace the fiat system or change the system on how it operates. It will be a digital cash in the future.
There is no doubt that bitcoins are very much popular now worldwide and there are maximum chances that within score, they will be made legal around the globe. We are surely going to observe the digital cash era soon. Bitcoins are going to lead all sorts of currencies but not going to put an end to paper money. |

Andrew Haldane said one solution would be for the Bank of England to issue a state-backed digital currency based on bitcoin. Supporting this initiative would be a negative interest rate levied on paper currency relative to the digital currency, with these measures do you think there is more possibilities that sometime:
Paper money will be banned entirely?
How long do you think that happens?
would it work?
What security and privacy risks would it raise?
And how would public and privately issued monies interact?
the future of paper money will not last long, because paper money made of paper and paper made of wood if the banknotes are still in use in the future the amount of wood will decrease as well as the world will experience tremendous heat, therefore the digital money is the answer to money in the future, That is not a valid reason, if woods is only the problem then its easy to plant, we should be discussing here a more deep reason why paper money will not gonna stay which IMHO will remain in circulation. The world is changing but you cannot change all the people to adopt with the new technology or what they called digital currency, it's a free world and anyone can use what he feels he is comfortable and paper money gives that convenience. Lol! That’s really ludicrous if paper money is going to disappear just because world is going to run short on plants or wood. That’s not going to happen anyway. Paper money will remain there forever along with digital money. People are going to use both for their convenience. Both have their own attributes. |

Maybe when the crypto-world stops reinventing the blockchain it will stop.
Yep, that’s one of the several possibilities under which bitcoins can vanish forever. All these cases are special ones. Blockchain technology is not going to stop ever. The technical teams of the crypto world will keep upgrading them to improve this technology further and attract more investors. |

Already proven to be so, Bitcoin it seems defeating the gold value that continues to moving/leads in an increasing and more superior than gold in general to everyone and can giving good hope for the future. Believing or not not, Bitcoin will be increasingly highlighted by more peoples to push individual finances.
Many investors already put their trust on btc, their trying to develop their projects thru cryptocurrency and funds through btc. It will be a great help to everyone in the future since it doesn't limit who can have it or use it. Those projects in cryptocurrency will not totally defeat Gold because there are some projects which are made to improve and develop the use of gold not only in physical but also to be use in some matters. Bitcoin and Gold have a good great value in the future. Indeed! Gold has been serving us for centuries and still has not lost value. Bitcoins are the latest invention but have become one of the expensive assets of the world. Bitcoins are not less than gold now; we can call them digital gold. Bitcoins and gold both are going to serve us together in the near future. |

Small merchants could benefit from this because the bank charges for purchases using cards from 3 to 5% of the incoming funds. it anticipates a bright future for the currency and makes a parallel with social networks, unknown 7 or 8 years ago and unavoidable today.
Banks are the most hateful commodities in the today’s world. They are all time making new bloody policies to garb as much money from customers as they can. On the contrary, digital currencies are giving complete freedoms to masses and I can see that merchants will prefer digital ones in the near future. |

I think it's better if you will invest it. If you will just save your money, there's a tendency that you can get it easily everytime you see something or you want something to buy. It's hard to save knowing that you have it in your hand. But if you will invest it, it's hard for you to get it. You will just get it when you need it for your future.
Haha! I guess you are facing this problem and are not good with saving money. Investing and saving depends on the nature of the investor and his/her financial condition. If you are not good with saving capital, invest into multiple businesses to have grand profits. Better invest into bitcoins. |

Imagine how many people got veryy rich from Bitcoin and crypto so far. Definitely lots... I would say thousands. However, it is unlikely that even thousands got extremely rich (I mean multi-millionaires) because most people did not believe in Bitcoin strongly enough to bite the bullet and buy it when it was worth very little. Myself included... ugh.
There are so many ways to get rich, so it's not important to get rich from what is important, the way we get rich and reach out. There are some wealthy people through luck, but also so many rich people because of their ability. Try to do well. Yes being rich is not easy it need you to enhanced your strategy in life. It is better to become rich in the way of your ability than luck because when you experience all the struggles by using your ability you are easy to solve it in the future. Bitcoins are truly a currency that needs to be dealt with knowledge and wisdom to make huge profits. Dealing with bitcoins is a profession not a gambling where a good luck is required and we should really be thankful to bitcoins for generating new rich people. I am also investing into bitcoins with the same hope. |

1. It’s gaining mainstream credibility as industry players consider it as the new gold – Bitcoin has many of the same qualities of gold, whose value is not controlled by governments. 2. Many investors and finance industry experts are serious about the promise of Bitcoin – A large number of mainstream investors and entrepreneurs already consider Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as a legitimate asset class. 3. There is only a limited amount of Bitcoin – There are only 21 million Bitcoin tokens to be mined and no new tokens will appear until after 2140. This makes Bitcoin a deflationary currency whose value increases naturally with time. Source here. These are interesting big reasons why it is so wise to invest in Bitcoin. I am sure that many people are still doubting Bitcoin whether it can be a good investment vehicle or it is just another risky venture that can collapse anytime. Of course, we know better. So in case someone would be asking you this same question, you just have to enumerate the three big reasons above. To me, the biggest two reasons to invest in bitcoin and use bitcoin, is you can do it over the internet to anyone anywhere for a reletively low fee You can also count on the blockchain ledger to be accurate for the amounts sent/receieved as being correct and not able to be changed/edited/reversed. Good for people who want to buy /sell things online, where ebay can screw you over because someone lies and complains, you cannot do that with BTC So many advantages in using bitcoin. The price is always up alone, has become the reason why we use bitcoin. In addition, investing in bitcoin, always gives us a bigger business advantage than investing elsewhere. A fairly fast transaction rate is also one of the reasons. Yep! These are few of the reasons why we should keep investing into bitcoins and preferring them over other crypto currencies. The main role is played by its continuous increasing value in attracting people. Bitcoins are furthermore acting as mainstream investments as well for those who want to use fiat for transactions. |

if you are really in need of money plus you have some bitcoins in your account i think you can cash with in minutes if you are really in need of money
I will sell my btc and some altcoins which I hold to cash out into fiat. In need of money for emergency this is I think I will do to have money in this case. Lastly, joining social media and signature campaign would help. Yep! You should your savings and investments when you are in desperate need of money. That’s why people save their money because misfortunes can hit you any time. Yes, cashing out our coins at that time will be the best option for immediate collection of money. Campaigns will take time to pay you off. |
