6061  Other / Off-topic / Re: Any safe way to grow my bitcoins ? on: September 04, 2016, 03:23:26 AM

Since when did cloud mining become a safe way to grow bitcoins? More like the laziest way to get scammed and not grow bitcoins. Cloud mining sites are 100% scam, they might be paying you for now but you don't know if they would still pay tomorrow. Trading alt coins might be a good idea but you have to make some research about the coin that you're buying before you do so. A lot of alt coins have become dump coins, you don't want to buy a lot of alt coins and find out the next day that the coin has become a dump coin.

Agreed as cloudmining sites have the same red flags, as any other hyips out there. They always claim that they are a real business but they don't have any proof that their business exist such as where they are located, who is the real owner, and even the look of their mining equipment. You can't also recommend altcoin trading as a safe way to grow BTC as what you said there are more dump coins than the profitable one. Best to study altcoin trading first before trying to invest your money in it.

There is no easy way to success bro. You won't get a proper answer here as your question is to complocated even old members can't answer. Also the title says you are looking for a way to double you btc? And there is no real proper way (stay out of doubler sites). You won't get a decent amount of money if you don't work your ass of to it.

There is no site in the world which can double your coins in a quick time and if you come across through those sites then make sure that you don't invest there as almost all sites are scams.
There is literally no site that can properl make you rich? Want proof? Ask the people who use to "invest" in the so called cloudmining site hashocean , which recently scammed 700k people l. Please don't believe hyips are real companies because they aren't  you don't know when will it stop paying you.

CreditCards aren't that "free" you pay interest on long-term, with Bitcoin you just pay an initial voluntary fee and that's it, I think this is pretty fair in itself, Also bitcoin offers many other advantages like having no-strings-attached payments, no documents or personal linkage to your purchases and account in most cases.

Some people thnk that they are paying with credit card and they totally ignore the fees they pay to their bank from where they get the credit card, at the time of purchase we do not pay any fees with credit card but at that we pay different types of fees at different stages to the bank.

But I still feel that credit card transactions goes hassle free and it is very convenient to use as it is accepted everywhere online as well as offline and people are used to it.
Actually some companies now take 0% interest when you pay in credit card, like cars you can pay them for up to 5 years monthly without interest. The reason is banks reward car companies bigger than the interest for their car as it is a way to promote their credit card that it has more uses than others, other benefits such as more freebies when you pay in credit card compared to cash.

I might say that not only poker in gambling requires skill other games suck as Baccarat and BlackJack gives you nearly 50% of the chance to win but that only is when you give skill into your game. However online betting is different not only you are playing against other players you are also challenge by the computer, well I just want you to put that in mind.
6065  Economy / Marketplace / Re: How can we encourage local businesses to accept BTC? on: September 02, 2016, 01:32:55 PM
I also would like to add the issue about the concern for local business accepting bitcoin as what will they right on their income statement for the issuance of their tax? For example as a citizen of a country that don't accept btc don't you think it will be fishy for the government that they always have 0$ in their income statement yet the business is still open until now.

Yeah I think you are right. As we use bitcoin in daily business It will produce false case in income tax statement and for that government should accepts the bitcoin as payment and they should centralised that, Till that it will not work at all.

You guys are right that local businesses cannot accept bitcoin unless bitcoin accepts it as the taxes that are applied for using dollars wont be there if someone is using bitcoin because it is not controlled by the government so there would be no taxes and if the government finds that they can possibly ban that business.
Until the country's government does not recognize btc as sort of a 2nd currency of the country, Local Businesses wouldn't dare to consider BTC as a mode of payment. However they do have the option too convert it to Fiat for the sake of transparency. But then again the government will really gonna be on your back with all your transactions.

6067  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst mistake in gambling on: September 01, 2016, 02:27:01 PM
Worst mistake in gambling I made so far was when I thought I only put my 0.05 btc for betting and when I start playing I saw my bet was 0.5BTC, and I lose it..  Cry Cry Cry  it made my day so down, totally down and cried out so loud,
Maybe what Betting/Gambling Sites needs to develop is a stop or permission signal when your bet suddenly gets bigger than average, example : a bot will ask your if you are really betting .5 btc in one bet and simply answering a yes/no before proceeding to the bet. Or you having the personal setting your own  limit in which you can play max or vice versa can make it safer for you loosing all of it.
 
6068  Economy / Economics / Re: How too get rich on: September 01, 2016, 10:02:01 AM
in order to get rich with bitcoins just do some trading and if you will be successful you will earn a lot of money
That is a big "If" bro there is no sure fire thing in being rich in BTC even with real money unless you get dirty with it. You are suggesting a big if on how to get rich, trading altcoins takes serious time on studying technical analysis and what it does it lessens your mistakes but the volatility of the altcoins makes it hard for people like us predicting the real outcome of their prices.
6069  Other / Off-topic / Re: Why we must trust with bitcoin? on: September 01, 2016, 07:40:45 AM
In terms of security and privacy Bitcoin is number in cryptocurrency, it won't have its value right now if there is not trust in it. Also look at it's reputation some businesses started accepting btc, heck you can even buy a website domain with it. What you must not trust are hyips who will make a run with your btc look at the recent scam coince they run a lot of money, Because there are still no laws protecting btc users from scams.
6070  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If prices crash after halving, what would you do? on: September 01, 2016, 05:35:21 AM
I will definitely buy more BTC as I will purchase them on  a discount. It is a win win situation for me as every price crash comes an increase afterwards and it is inevitable. Ever hear the words " Buy The Fear" it is always a sure fire shot on people in trading whether what thing they are trading as everyone else is panicking selling some brave guys buy the panic because they know the increase will happen the day after that or even sooner than expected. But yes there is always a chance that it won't go to its normal price back but you can still make a lot of money with it.
6071  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin better or paypal? on: August 31, 2016, 08:17:49 AM
I prefer Bitcoin over PayPal because of the missing chargeback. At the same time, I prefer PayPal over Bitcoin because of the popularity Bitcoin doesn't have.
What do you mean by popularity that bitcoin doesn't have? Well maybe they are tie in terms of popularity at this present day,  Or paypal is ahead just by a little bit , they gained advantage because paypal is older than bitcoin but now it will change as btc wallets are now all over the world.
6072  Other / Off-topic / Re: If i give you 10 BTC what will you do? on: August 31, 2016, 02:26:47 AM
If you invested in XMR or ETC before the pumps, you could have turned 10 in what... 30? or even 100 if you had luck.

So keep looking for an altcoin pump and you can get rich.
I am interested in how you get rich in Altcoins bro. Let say you have 10 BTC what altcoin will you change it into? And what do you do in prospecting the next altcoin that will increase in value? I have no Idea how you choose them. I am interested in earning extra money with that. Like in stocks, stocks in IPO or initial public offering has its early days of having full growth , but that is when the IPO stock is a good company. I am hoping to know what does a good altcoin looks like?
6073  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much can you earn with gambling? on: August 30, 2016, 06:25:26 PM
Money is really the cause of all evil, we are here in gambling because we want to try our luck to make more money so we will not work hard anymore and we will be just sitting and making money in front of your computer. The question is very easy to answer by the way, we can earn money as much as we want but only if we are lucky.
no its not, thats bullshit, money allows you to live a better life and usually only people who dont have money tell that it is not good to have a lot of it, no offence
What you all said was true. But yes for us common people living in an urban are we won't last a day without money. As money is our way to survive in this world. Also money can't always be the root of evil, there are many factors surrounding it like how the person struggle to survive the day. Also on how they feel the envy on the life of others.
6074  Other / Off-topic / Re: How to motivate women to use Bitcoin? on: August 30, 2016, 02:07:31 PM
i think you should motivate her just like everyone else, tell basic good things about bitcoin, don't tell any bad things about bitcoin, and i am sure that she will like it

bitcoin is good overall. it have no bad things except the scammers of bitcoin industry. and I think we should warn them to be careful from scammers. if we only tell her good things of bitcoin and avoid these scammers. and by chance she got scammed(which is almost very possible) then she'll lost her trust on bitcoin again and will never be convinced again.
Mostly women falls victim easy to scammers because they do not use their brain so much, they can easily be deceived and most of the scammers are men, I think it is hard for the women to live in crypto world. No offense to women but that is just my opinion.
Well you must separate your facts from your opinion bro. As I don't see any relationship of how the difference in gender can be taken victim into scams. I don't see any article about woman being the larger victim here. We are created equal and what I can say woman can adjust to physical activities too such as sports. There are woman who play better than men. So bro get your facts straight.
6075  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do the peoples use the Bitcoin? on: August 30, 2016, 11:31:52 AM
There are many reasons why people all over the world use bitcoin, It the ability to earn them online. There was a time where you need paypal and other payment processors just to transact with other people and there is also the hassle of verifying your account. Now there is bitcoin wallets in where you can not only transact but is also a universal money in where many people accept it. It has features like earning them online that can be attractive for people who are looking to an opportunity online.
6076  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do people keep saying BTC is dead?! on: August 30, 2016, 10:23:52 AM
My strong understanding for the term "BTC IS DEAD" is related to mining them. Yes BTC has been long dead for miners with no equipments to mine them as it is now very hard just to get 1 BTC even if you are in a mining pool. And that is according to my knowledge and experience in BTC, I don't if there are other meanings to it.

This logic is flawed since every ten minutes on average 12.5 bitcoins are mined. Someone is evidently mining them, and we know that these are mining pools that consist of individual miners. Thereby, Bitcoin mining is not dead, by any means or to any extent...

But this doesn't mean that it might not be dead for you personally, of course

Well knowing a lot hash is required to mine 1 btc, and its growing all days the hash required to mine 1 bitcoin. This makes bitcoin system works well, as less reward and bigger prize. Bitcoin mining still very active in fact the prediction to mine end at 2100 is because the big farmers keep with their hash and some are getting more.
Doamader is right as many people need more hashing power in order to get those 12.5 Bitcoins which is previously 25 BTC. Can't you see it they are limiting the reward for each block. Also can't you see post about people closing there mining farms , selling there mining equipment? Well I'll change my statement for your satisfaction "Bitcoin Mining is slowly Dying"

Hashing power required to mine 1 Bitcoin doesn't grow by itself. It grows since miners (i.e. the ones who mine bitcoins) are either adding more efficient equipment (in terms of hash-power) or their sheer number increases. As you can easily see, neither of these cases provides a viable reason to claim that Bitcoin mining is dying. Hashing power (per 1 BTC of reward) is effectively doubled only at the moment of halving, but this happens just once in a four year period. And this time the reward halving was very well compensated by the growth in Bitcoin price...

As it seems, you should change your statement once again to something like "individual Bitcoin mining is slowly dying"
Deisik suppose I change my statement to "individual bitcoin mining is slowly dying" do you think It won't happen to big farms/pools. Because what I know there can only be 21,000,000 BTC in existence, And that number is a finite countable number. So I am sticking to my statement. The only thing BTC can do is to double the amount to be mined to 42M but I guessed it will create a lot of more problems than solving one.
6077  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: People hate Bitcoins? on: August 30, 2016, 06:34:48 AM
People who hate bitcoin are just un-informed. My dad thought it was only for illegal markets and the dark web, but that is not true at all! My father now owns bitcoin and uses it daily! We just need to educate the people that don’t have the information they need!
What is the reason that your dad previously hate bitcoins? Because when old people think of new stuff about money/investing they get irritated fast and all they are thinking are scams. Also what is the reason that your dad use the bitcoin today? How did you influence him in using BTC?  BTC will be love by people if they only know where to put their money and also staying away from hyips are a good idea. It is not the btc's fault it is your way of thinking that there is easy money.
6078  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: August 30, 2016, 04:53:36 AM
Investing nowadays is much better if you would compare it to savings, as investments are returning great...
I invested my money in XMR (Monero) and never thought that it would just get spiked above 600% and I got my investment's return...
I invested too much less, but happy already with what I got... Smiley
So what are your plans/decision making ideas in order on choosing Monero among any other cyrptocurrency out there? Because other than that it either luck or you have studied on what altcoin to choose from. Because studying it makes your chances increase on gaining money from your investment. Sorry im pretty new with altcoin trading.

Legal and Moral are two different kind of words. Some even use lawyers to bend around the laws, but are they moral? Of course not. Moral is what you know is fair for them or what is right to do. There are even laws that make bad things unpunished, for example if you are married , you are not valid for rape charges, so are these moral?
