That's true, being decentralized of bitcoin it cause of huge price value. Since the bitcoin is a crypto currency no taxes can get by the government (only fee). But beauty of the bitcoin is the volatile price that gives an additional profit on those who have.

Additionally, can use also in some transaction like buying of load and as far as I know it can be use to pay in some online shopping (like lazada) and no hassle to use in payment.

True, investing is one huge income now adays of investor and with bitcoin the profit is totally hefty. But if you want to grow your bitcoin you can choose the trading which is the same of investing. Difference is time, investing is for long term and trading will give you a profit in short term that is actually working in growing of bitcoin value.

Agree, additionally the price is volatile that result of losing income/profit. Imagine if you put all your money in bitcoin how about your budget for your needs especially in the time you encounter unexpected expenses? I'm sure you have no choice to trade even the price is low.

Actually yes, when did you plan to buy bitcoin? If the price is so high? If you think that this price is too expensive how about in the future? Bitcoin never come back in the low price this is because bitcoin is become popular around the world and the result is increasing of volume/price. In other word, bitcoin price will become better and better in the future.

It will not anymore become national currency. It is digital currency, yes it beneficial in some user but I think not in the society it is because I'm sure some people use this in illegal transaction that cause of bad image of crypto-currency.

Even the volume are increasing, the fiat money can not replace by bitcoin, the popularity of fiat is high than the digital currency.

I never use the bittrex and hitbtc is the one I use.

In my experience, my mentor said that hitbtc is scam but I did not try to stop to use, in beginning the transaction is good, fast to trade but lately I am disappointed ( I don't know if the hard pork is the reason) because my transaction is almost 2 weeks of pending and until now it is loading to main account. I ask to the forum but some people encounter same with me, but nothing changes until now. I think hitbtc is a scam exchanger.

It is the beauty of bitcoin, it will help us to improve our life by using this as source of income.

In fact, bitcoin is good opportunity on those people who want to become rich in fast way. By investing, trading, campaign and etc. it will gives a huge profit if you have lot of knowledge about crypto-currency. It is very lucrative, it helps my life to survive in problems/challenges by earning money using bitcoin.

At this point where the price of bitcoin is high, it is not advisable for us to invest in it and if we do, earning profit might take a long time. But there are people who thinks that investing in bitcoin now might be a good choice since the price of bitcoin will probably continue to climb up. Yes there are altcoins that can be considered for investment but of course one must study first and know if the coin shows possible growth or gain in the future. Choosing a coin for investment is a risk also and if you are not sure about the coin try to look at its history and see if people demands it over time.

I remember my professor saying that those people who have succeed in their life are those who decided to take a huge change and risk, and I humbly agree with him. I think that it can also be applied in trading because I also took risk when I decided to start trading. I have no knowledge nor any idea about so I try to learn the basic things about it until I tried and learn from my own experiences. Honestly, not all trading and traders are always successful so there is a big challenge if you will continue trading after losing and taking the step to try again is a risk already. Moving on and learning from your own trading experiences will help you become a good trader and a successful one so don't be afraid of losing money.

I believe that those long term hodlers are the ones who have benefited the most from the huge growth of bitcoin. We all know that and calling them idiots because of that is absurd. In fact, many people are envy for those who have the chance to hold as much and as long as they can and wishes that somehow they have also known bitcoin at that time. We know that because the price of bitcoin reaches a new level for this year, its popularity has also grown and for those who have their bitcoins in their wallet for a long time surely have made a fortune out of it.

True, even basic things that can be found and answered by the "Beginners and Help" section are being asked again because many new members are that lazy. I think this is the reason why moderators decided to delete old posts and are active on catching spammers. This is not a big issue but since there are many people getting affected, there is a drama existing and it is just so annoying. If they really want to earn money through this way this should also try to read things about it and not just think about the money.

And to answer the OP's question, yes there are real people in this forum. 

Most of my earnings are also spend for me and family expenses and there are times when all of it are trade even at low prices when there is a big need for money. I think that we who earns for our family cannot avoid this kind of situation and we should just be proud about it. I am happy helping my family even if there are times that most of my income is consumed and even if I trade at low price I do not regret it as long as my family is eating a proper meal at proper time.

Yes this is possible, I have heard that commercial enterprises are planning to adopt bitcoin and if this happen,  the demand will surely increase as well as the price. Bitcoin had a huge growth in 2017 and this had made its name popular that even people who highly doubted it is trusting and investing in it now.

Still, 2018 will be a long year and many things are possible with bitcoin,  it may continue to grow but we know that there will be forks that will affect its price but as long as many people demands and uses it,  bitcoin will continue to rise.

I can suggest to start in bitcoin, the price is expensive but the profit you can get is huge. Most of altcoin is dumping, right time to buy but no assurance to earn big profit. And think the bitcoin dominate all the crypto-currecny and it is so popular to the user it means the bitcoin has good future.

Lol, gambling is one way to earn profit but not profitable. Since it is money involve we can't assure the profit it means make an stable job. If you think it is a job I disagree with you cause job gives you a sure income and gambling can't do that. Gambling is a nightmare in the end.

Investing only works in long tern investment but we can't avoid to get our money because of unexpected needs. For me that situation is not short term investment it's trading if crypto currency was discussing.

Long term or short term investing is both profitable, we are not deciding if we know that we lose our money instead we think the consequence to avoid losing.

Agree, even the price of bitcoin is high/not affordable we are not too late to buy.

The volume of bitcoin will increase and increase if you think that your money will be lose I think NO, it will become gold in the future. People says that bitcoin will fall in the future but based on what I observed as long as bitcoin become popular more people are crazy to use this as investment or source of income.

Yes, why not. It is one of the reason why I choose to earn using bitcoin for my future and to my family. I can't avoid to spend some of my money coming from bitcoin but saving of small bitcoin gives a huge value in the future. It is not because of profit that will earn it is because we want to secure and have a big dream that maybe happen because of bitcoin.

I am one of those who was annoyed by the pending transactions in ethereum. The game called Crypto Kitties who used Etherdelta for the transaction have cause a lot of trouble and imagine if another game will be doing the same thing too. I just hope that the Etherdelta won't wait for another fork before solving this. As of today, the transaction seems normal and the processing is back to normal but what if it happen again? I just hope that there would be a proper announcement or something from the Etherdelta so that we would be aware.

If that is the case, then the panic selling of the newbies is caused by naiveness. Newbies decided to find ways to earn bitcoin even if they do not completely understand what they are doing. Their mistakes are maybe caused by the narrow knowledge they have. I am once a newbie and before I decided to do trading, I asked some other people first and do research. I have experienced failures but I don't dwell with it long since the time for improvement is long. Trading is not easy and if you have little knowledge about it you will always end up not earning.
