6061  Economy / Speculation / Re: sorry what is halving the price will rise e or reduce? on: April 08, 2016, 08:44:53 AM
I think that the value will not rise and not reduce after the halving, but I think that the value will keep stable and that can be bad for the most people who wants a higher value of course.
If you are now looking at the moment, you can see that the value is not rising and that is already bad.

no offense but you know nothing about how the market and the price rises work.

there is always a period of time before each rise, and the longer this period lasts the bigger the rise will be. this period is the accumulation phase where everybody is buying bitcoin at an stable price which is low enough that they can earn a good profit from the rise.
6062  Economy / Economics / Re: Do You Think Bitcoin Will Replace Dollar Soon? on: April 08, 2016, 08:13:46 AM
No I do not think the dollar will be replaced anytime soon by the bitcoin because the dollar is simply a step to big to take over by the bitcoin.
I also think this will take years over years to even try this, many banks will also stop this in my opinion.
Plus the last problem is also that the bitcoin is good but the banks are also gonna be fully digital and be something like a coin in my prediction.
It will replace it sooner, the banks already preffering the digital system, just think about ATM, and dollar will be replaced as only USA is supporting dollar while bitcoin is supporting from a all over the world.

the banks will never embrace bitcoin because they have no control over it like the control they have over fiat. bitcoin was created to replace banks.

and about your "banks preferring digital system" comment, i think you mean the news about banks working on blockchain, which has nothing to do with bitcoin and they are just working on their own altcoin with separate blockchain technology.
6063  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin worth to you or not... on: April 08, 2016, 08:08:06 AM
bitcoin for me is the digital gold, even better than gold or any other valuables.

the best part about bitcoin is two things, one is the fact that the price of bitcoin is so undervalued right now so in the future what i have now is going to be worth a lot more.
and the other is the fact that bitcoin is a currency that i can use to buy stuff online. so with the price rise in the future i have a lot of purchasing power.
6064  Economy / Speculation / Re: Where do you see bitcoin in 10 years on: April 08, 2016, 08:03:56 AM
I see Bitcoin being even more successful over 10 years. I think that you will be able the pay at more stores with bitcoins. This needs to happen because it is the only flaw that Bitcoin has at the moment. 

If our local stores will start to accept Bitcoin as form of payment in the coming years, then that will be something amazing! I can see myself already buy my daily needs here and use my phone to drop the store a few bits. Cheesy

well, that is the dream of any bitcoin user in the world to be able to spend their bitcoin's directly in any physical store around them.
anyways in 10 years i think this can be possible, since we can see that the adoption has already begun and there are small shops (coffee shops,...) accepting bitcoin here and there.
6065  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price rise is over on: April 08, 2016, 08:00:31 AM
the real price rise has not even started yet.
all these small rises are temporary because of small jumps due to accumulation phase and day-traders making a small profit from the little change.
the real price rise would be at least twice the current price ($700-$800) and can go even further.
6066  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If Bitcoin is First currency, so what is the name of Second currency??? on: April 08, 2016, 07:57:09 AM
you are looking for what is called Altcoins or Alternate cryptocurrency. you can find all the active altcoins on coinmarketcap with their price, link to their website and block explorer. also you can check the altcoin announcement and discussion boards to find out more.

the second popular crypto-currency is always changing but some of them could keep up with bitcoin like Litecoin, Ripple, Dash, Monero, Doge, and a couple more. but nothing could be as big as bitcoin yet.
6067  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: paypal or bitcoin? on: April 08, 2016, 07:47:25 AM
I think it's obvious that PayPal is accepted almost anywhere. But when traded with another user, in my opinion Bitcoin is a lot better as there are no  charge backs.

If Bitcoin was accepted at any store it would be a superior currency (IMO)
in some case chargebacks is good for customer/buyer, so buyer can protect his money if seller scam it, of the product not in accordance with the agreement he can chargebacks his money.

yeah, there are some cases that the charge-back feature is actually a good feature on paypal but those cases are so few and mostly there are individual sellers that are getting screwed over this feature and there is nothing they can do because paypal doesn't solve these sellers problems with charge-back.
6068  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: April 08, 2016, 07:27:55 AM
I think gambling is not addictive unless you start taking it too seriously and start think to earn with gambling.
Whatever you do related to money I think you are very serious, yes whenever you gamble its said that you should not take it too seriously, but that actually is not true. Because when you gamble, inside you a greedy gamblers waits for a win.
100% right, I have never seen anyone gambling and then not even checking whether they lost or won. Yes we do it for fun but thats just a saying and later that fun becomes addiction and when it turns into greed we dont even know.

well, it is different from person to person. so i think it is more dependent on the personality of different people. some are more stable and can stick to same rules of not getting addicted to gambling but some are not so determined and can lose control and lead to big losses.
6069  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What makes a new gambling website stand out? on: April 08, 2016, 07:15:59 AM
there are still some areas of gambling that the casinos have not covered yet. for example i think the dice games is full of different gambling sites so there is little room for new ones but they can still be innovative with new features like accepting altcoins.

but other games (new games) are still a new area that there is little competition in them. for example i think there is not enough casinos for e-sports gambling.

Also the HYIP investments sites dont let us start with small amount of investment, so that we can try with less Santoshi and double them and gain trust. There is always a limit for minimum bitcoin deposits in such websites.

Most HYIP are scam. They may stay months but in the end,same ending: SCAM or not paying.I advise newbie to stay away from this program,they may pay you at first to encourage you to invest more.

Even in mining now,there are site i see that they are scam at first look,they offer ROI in days pretending as mining site Smiley

Actually all HYIP always end up as a scam but just like what you have said, some may stay months that and you can take that advantage to make profit. That's basically what I am doing right now. But of course I wouldn't recommend it to newbies, it will be too risky for them

HYIP is very bad for most people. There will be no ROI for most of us. It will have some ROI for the people earlier in the game.

this is not a good suggestion at all.
and you can't ever assume that the early people are going to get paid. because nothing is set in stone with these things that is why they are called scam. it is best to stay away from them, it is not worth the risk to lose.
6071  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Taking Advantage of Poloniex exchange on: April 08, 2016, 06:54:05 AM
the coins dont leave the exchange .

it is not just about coins not leaving the exchanger. when you lend bitcoin on exchanger you are lending it to someone else so they can trade with it so if they lose money, it is possible that you get screwed because they can leave and never log in that account again.

there are better active platforms for lending bitcoin
6072  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Freelancer who accept bitcoin? on: April 08, 2016, 06:50:30 AM
apart from the above suggestion you can find freelancers by creating a topic in the services section with info about the job and payment and escrow.
also you can find many freelancers on reddit jobforbitcoin subs.

In addition, every redditor who will make a bet via OneHash on the Falcon 9 landing, and will post last 5 characters of the betting address, will have a chance to win a free bet of the value of 0.1 BTC to use on OneHash.

The giveaway ends when the bet closes - Friday, April 8th at 20:43 UTC.

Will you give it a try?

edit: betting address = deposit address

interesting bet, i will check it out later.

but when you say have a chance do you mean like a random lottery type giveaway of 0.1BTC to random users? then how many will be chosen?
6074  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to play gambling in a smart way? on: April 07, 2016, 09:25:38 AM
i am going with this cliche that smart way of gambling is not gambling at all Smiley

but if you want to still gamble (like me) you have to have a limit for yourself, like they say gamble what you can afford to lose. going in big means losing big too. so set aside some amount that you can lose then play with that much.

also remember to quit while you are ahead.
6075  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: how to earn 5lac satoshi on: April 07, 2016, 09:08:21 AM
start earning btc from faucet it's a good way for newbie and from faucet is still possible to earn 0.005 btc if you're consistent with what you do and if you still confused to find new faucet i suggest go to micro earnings board https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=212.0 because in there you will find faucet who have good rewards
I guess .005btc can be earned the whole day if you will going to use faucets I mean really the whole 24hrs and the consume electricity and your time is not worthy, it is just a waste of time mate. if you have skills try to sell your knowledge go to service section and you'll be able to find some that possible gives you more than what you are looking.

exactly. even if the faucet payment each time is 1000 satoshi (which is rare and they are mostly between 100-500 satoshi) it will take 500 claims to reach that much which will take a lot of time and energy that could be used in better constructive ways.
0.005BTC is ~$2 which you can earn a lot more just waiting tables at a local fast food.
6076  Economy / Speculation / Re: Halving guide for noobs: Why it's not possible for halving to be priced in now on: April 07, 2016, 09:01:07 AM
it is the same story all over again.
if i wasn't so lazy i would have searched the forum and listed all the topics from the last halving and people saying halving has priced in and price is not gonna rise. now we all know how that ended by that time.

Yes, it rose substantially before the halving and then was fairly flat for a couple months after the halving until the Cyprus bubble began.

I think Litecoin's halving is more relevant since it was just last year. In that case, there was a bubble caused by all the halving hype (plus the steep increase in general crypto prices). The bubble popped just before the halving and the slide continued past the halving. It stopped falling and has been flat ever since.

I believe that Bitcoin will behave similarly except that any halving hype bubble will be limited by the block size drama and the "death spiral" hysteria.

it is always like this, there is a flat line with a nearly stable price (maybe small sparks here and there) and everybody accumulating and then something happens (and it doesn't matter what if you ask me) and then price explodes.

i say this time it is going to be the block size after halving. whether it is segwit, lightning network or classic; as soon as it becomes certain the price will explode.
6077  Economy / Economics / Re: Best website to give out loans? Btcjam or ? on: April 07, 2016, 08:55:41 AM
btcjam is very slow, i've sent the verifications request and they are still hanging there verifying all the stuff, after 4 fucking months, unbelievable

4 months, wow. you should contact their support or submit your request again. i am sure that nothing takes that long. there might be some kind of problem with your request. maybe lost in the middle of other requests, and their staff overlooked it.
6078  Economy / Economics / Re: Block reward halving and BC price on: April 07, 2016, 08:53:02 AM
It could go up when the supply from mining is cut by half, it seems kind of likely. But if the market thinks that it will it should have priced most of it in already. It tries its best to be ahead of the curve after all. Or at least that´s the theory.

the market doesn't think that at all (if that is even a thing)
don't just repeat what you have read in an FUD topic without any reasoning. there was the same arguments going on last time for the last halving, they kept saying it is priced in and not gonna go higher, now check out the charts and see how wrong they were.
6079  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why Bitcoin price could hit all time highs in 2016 on: April 07, 2016, 08:42:26 AM
It depends on the halving and the block size increase. Halving can drive the price to $700. The block size increase could drive it to $1300.

How did you even come up with these numbers? I think if we manage to stay above $600 then it can be considered a great achievement. Everything above that is a nice extra bonus for all of us. It will be a real challenge to see the price reach $1000 again as there will be a lot selling pressure created by whales to prevent it from touching the $1000 price level.

why the last part? it is exactly the opposite. the whales would want the price to go to $1000 and above more than you and me, for every 1BTC we have whales have 100 so if we gain $600 profit they earn $60,000 you still think whales will put sell pressure to prevent the rise?!!
