yeah below $100k is cheap if you buy it. but if the value of bitcoin pump over $100k it is difficult to us to buy some of it, it is up to us whether to buy or work to have a bitcoin. but for me its better to work instead of buying it. i admit that i cant afford to buy any single digits of bitcoin to hold until it pump much more than its value from now.

i suggest to explore all about bitcoin first and learn all about it, for your sake. mostly all newcomer are totally got greedy when they heard about it, but take it slow dude, just take some search research before you go thru for the guidance. and for the wallet you looking for, you can learn a lot in this thread for more info.

here at our country we can buy cellphone loads, we can pay some unique bills even electric bills and some convenient store are accepting bitcoin as mode of payments. but restaurants? i never encountered yet before. i hope soon it will be, and NO your not only one (your country) have this feature in terms on convenient to ease some transactions with bitcoin.

because of some reason i guest. but many other country are already accept this so called bitcoin, and many of them (from their country) are getting lucrative from this bitcoin to ease their some transaction outdoor.

and i think those country that really not accept bitcoin are country that not understand most the value of this bitcoin for their countrymen, they got banned bitcoin from using it or got no exchanger because i think they looking forward of the mass scam or something if they accept this but they are wrong.

confirming that i receive my payment for this week. thanks sir yahoo62278.

i think its because of being inactive for many times. after updates(every two weeks) even you have a lot of post, let say you post a 2k post before but you didnt post even 1-2 post per update it would be not counted to gain +14 activity again, i thought. after so may weeks for being inactive and not posting even 1-2 post it will not increase your activity as you thought to legendary and remains you at full member status.

i think you can post it here Announcements (Altcoins) because as i know you are in early stage right? announce first all about your project to attract/got interest to other investors/partners on your project. if they think that your project has a potential to grow im sure you got them interest in your project as if you have a good amazing formal announcement. i thought.

activity increase/added for every 2 weeks. even you post more than the activity you have, for now it will not added because you will wait for the updates to gain you another 14 activity. it cost almost a month to complete a 3 updates and you become a jr member. at the rank you have which is 28 activity, so you almost a jr member this coming updates tuesday 08/29/2017..

you need to have/reach to 30 activity. first from the creating of your account, you only have to reach 14 activity, after you reached that it will not added another 14 activity until the next updates (updates every 2 weeks) 14activity + 14 activity = 28 activity after 2 weeks, you have a complete 30 activity to become a jr member. every updates you will gain a 14 activity. so you have almost a month to reach/become a jr member. as is you posting a constructive and informative post.

rely on this for the next updates.

Updates

yeah i got your point. but who knows? no one of us can see the future, maybe your right but we can hide the other side that could possibly happen. like this bitcoin if it can survive for 100 years. i come for yes of course bitcoin exist just a few years ago and its all the beginning of bitcoin in our society, although there are no acceptance of this in the other country but it would be happen so soon.

i feel you dude, but how about those people who cant afford to buy a huge amount of bitcoin? yes maybe in your own definition that those who bought a lesser/little amount of bitcoin and they got a lesser/little amount of profit, i think they happy on that just the way they do because they cant afford to have more. so the mainstream is its too late for those people who cant afford to buy a huge amount of bitcoin because of it huge value and it isnt too for those rich and can do afford to buy a bunch of it.

i think if it reached its maximum potential of 21,000,000 bitcoins, it has be another cycle of mines to be mine to have a another round on this business. and i think the creators of this bitcoin are aware on that. so they have another round to catch up us again and again to make us them more profits.

nothing is impossible. and the possibility that bitcoin could be replace by another cryptocurrnecy is probably possible, but for now by means of popularity and demand even bitcoin has a limited quantity/volume, bitcoin is cannot replace by the other cryptocurrency maybe the cryptocurrency (OP mentioning) will/would be the shadow of bitcoin but to replace is never gonna be happen i thought.

i think this issue is not yet prioritize of other hackers. because blockchain has a solid and very secure system. the only thing that was able to believe is that if you reveal all of the information of your bitcoin wallet to someone/somewhere, you breaking your own security protocol  when you do that. and it cause of loosing all that you have.

i strongly recommend you a hardware wallet. hardware wallets are very secure in term of looses. if you want to invest a huge amount of your money to btc and you want to keep it safe for about 5-10 years, hardware wallet is suits to your need. but it is really expensive. or try to have a sofware wallet they are also secure in terms of loosing.

i think both of them are profitable. for now you can do both of them because with a job you can earn constantly at the same time work with bitcoin, not totally fair in terms of time but it would be equal or more over unlike your job but you can have those profit from both of them, so i suggest not to quit on your job and do work with your bitcoin at the same time.

why? because the next update is not happen yet. just keep posting first if you want to loose your newbie status. i gladly suggest that you would read first some threads that relying on your questions. because most of newbie are has the same question rolling on their mind. the only key is to study first all useful and informative threads here.

here are the threads that i think it will help you a lot.

as i know. from the first day you create your account your activity is only up to 14 activity, although you post more than 14 post your activity wont added until the next update. update is only happen every two weeks.

so on your question that How exactly do I have 5 activity in my first day? just make a post but not in burst, make your post more constructive and informative. then you will see that your activity is going up until it reach 14 activity.

confirming that i receive the payment. thank you very much sir yahoo62278.

Did you stake your old btc wallet address here?. Stake means probably post your bitcoin wallet address with a sign message from your bitcoin wallet for the future purposes like lost/hacked your account. staking your wallet address is strong prof that the account had been posted is yours. if you do that before and post it in that thread, there is a chance that you can retrieve your old account. but if its not. there's no other option,

additional,
if you staked your old bitcoin wallet address  and did sign message before you got hacked. then check it if there's anybody quoted your stake for the strong prof. you needed to retrieve your old account hacked.
