6861  Economy / Economics / Re: How much are you willing to pay in fees for a Bitcoin transaction? on: February 06, 2017, 10:40:24 AM
Fees always should be based on the amount we are sending out. Still if the minimum amount is lesser than 10 cents means more cheaper and convenient to use for day today life needs.
But bitcoins works in different way, fees are determined by size of transactions and willingness of miners. So,  we can not expect cheaper tx fees without considering how it works.
6862  Economy / Economics / Re: Passive Income on: February 05, 2017, 08:51:35 PM
I think the best way to have guaranteed passive income (if we aren't talking specifically Bitcoin) is to invest in bank stocks. In general, they give 3-5% yield per year in dividends, and the value is very steady. Plus, investing in something like a bank provides a lot of security; they'll always be around.

That's more of a low-effort method. If you are willing to spend a lot of time and energy, then looking into something like app-dev is definitely worth it.
3%-5% annual yield is an average rate of return, plus these are usually the rates that government bonds and treasury bills also yield. But to make more from passive investments, it should be able to beat inflation year in and year out. Money loses a bit of purchasing power due to high inflation rates. If your investment are able to beat inflation, you are on your way to greater passive income.
Given that inflation is fast going double digits in most climes, it leaves the 3-5% yield per year dividend worthless and might actually end up in a loss. That is why consideration for investments in assets outside of government control like Bitcoin is now gaining much more attention. the inflation and devaluation that have become regular features with fiat currencies, is not known with Bitcoin.
Yes, passive income must generate more income than what we are losing through inflation. Some country people are happening accepting less than 7% passive income trades and unfortunately people will people keep on their faiths. But over period of times, they will start regretting. Passive income through clod mining will be near future revolutions but it is highly dependent of how much mining difficulty will be increasing on next retreatment  of hash power.

I have really understood the importance of this principle in all businesses, and I have tried to apply it in my own business career. I started with $17 USD bonus gained from a Forex forum to open a trading account, and after a year I had earned $2,000. I withdrew a half and reinvested the other half in several accounts and nowadays I am reinvesting part of my earnings in new projects, and that is why I learned to make more money from money (or in this case, from bonus Grin )
Inspiring. Thanks for sharing. From $17 to $2000, it must be a reward for your hard work and dedications. Through trading it would be possible. Yes, making money from money will be possible if we learn trading. But trading is not that easy for all people. We need to be good in skill and strategies to excel in trading. Working for ourselves with our money must be a better way for making more money.

I am interested to be a signature campaign, but I do not know the rules and how to apply. Can anyone tell me?

Signature campaign is best way to make money but managing signature campaign is tough job, you need to take care of all the participants and payouts. Before applying to that job i you need a experience of managing spreadsheet and giving updates daily.
I don’t think that being a signature campaign is not that really hard I mean once you have passed the signature campaign enrollment and looking into participant’s profile before accepting them you are done the rest is for the one who holds the escrow and pay the participants every week.
6865  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Could a nation completely control a cryptocurrency? Good or bad on: February 04, 2017, 07:30:28 PM
I doubt that a nation would adopt an outside currency but probably would be willing to create their own. Could they completely control such a system, would it succeed, and would it be good for the current community?
A country specific country is totally different from what we are enjoying with bitcoin system. I guess almost every country might be having digital cash system for their people (only cryptography part might be missing probably) which will never able to compete with bitcoin.

The purpose and benefits are complete different and unlimited with bitcoin which never be possible by country specific currency (even cryptocurrency). So, they never impact on current bitcoin community.
6866  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think are the biggest disadvantages of Bitcoin? on: February 04, 2017, 06:00:53 AM
The only big issue around bitcoin is the time to the transactions get confirmed that are out of being normal and fair, with the current delay miners are forcing people to raise the fees, this might became a big problem in the next years if a suitable solution wont be found. Miners rewards went from 0,5-0.8btc to 1 btc and above ammounts, and bitcoin price is at 1000 dollars, looks like miners are controlling bitcoin at the moment.
That is true the bitcoin transaction time is really becoming a problem and I don’t get how are we supposed to go with this, I sent around 0.1 btc and it took like 4 days to get confirmed, that alongside that the bitcoin is not being used everywhere and not having the best reputation among the investors because it is highly fluctuating.
6867  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Gambling vs Real Gambling on: February 03, 2017, 06:50:25 PM
It used to be before the existence of online gambling, I did real gambling, that is by collecting a lot of friends and then playing cards or dominoes cards in the other. When losing a lot of quarrels that happened so it makes me fight with lots of friends, after the online gambling then everything becomes more secure, and better. now, I only play at online gambling and leave the real gambling.
indeed one of disadvantages from real gambling is you will facing different people with different characteristics too and some of them cannot accept their losses and start the mess and fighting with their friends but i think not all people to be like that however indeed most people will more comfortable using online gambling right now because they can do that everywhere and everytime and no need to wait casinos opened first
I also agree with you that in real gambling you will face different problems, you will face different people with different nature. Some times people disagree with the result of the gambling and it lead to big debate and even lead to fight with each other, therefore such kinds of problem we may face in real casino. While in online casino there will be no such kind of issues.

It may help OP or may not but on the topic some users may get some benefits.
Can you explain what benefits some users can get from this topic?
OMG. Are you kidding ?
Benefits always do not need to be in terms of money, certainly he would have meant the knowledge benefits.

Probably I can say this must be a very useful topic regarding investments into gambling sites. So when some people are sharing their knowledge/experience on different investment programs with gambling sites it must be a big benefits to this community.
6869  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: February 03, 2017, 03:38:42 PM
We know for an addicted gamblers, isn't easy to instantly quit for good. For others, losing too much and they will stop.
But you should try to stop expecting to earning through gambling, first.
Then, find another profitable activities or allocate your energy to something else such as sports or learning something new.

You are right if we stop thinking that gambling is a place of gambling then we will not go there for money and if someone want to earn money only from these gambling sites then he have to start his own casino online or offline as only that is the business in gambling while playing is not a way to get money but is a way to get entertainment.
Do you think an addicted gambler will stop gambling by becoming an owner of gambling site. I do not think so, we will keep on gambling and he will not run the business properly as he could not find enough time to take care of business.

All the above, I do not think an addicted gambler will be having enough money to start a gambling business.

Dear BoXXoB,

Last Tuesday I got my new rank : Hero Member. I guess it would be a right time to inform you. Thank you.

You'll be paid as senior member this week as I don't automatically update those.
Yes sir, I am well aware of that and glad to accept that.

I mentioned about my rank for below type of situation (for accepting new members). I am sorry if I have assumed wrongly...

Sheet has been provided to Alex.

For next week a Hero member slot has opened because Arcteryx has received Red trust. Post your applications below and I shall make my decision later today or tomorrow.
My Rank just turned Hero so might has well close that one. Smiley

That's true. I'll give you the spot and... since it's already thursday I'll probably not pick new members till next week. No open slots (until next week).

Keep in mind that online, one can always make money even though it might be relatively small. With that money, a gambler can still satisfy his gambling needs.
There would be nothing wrong when a gambler will be earning up to his satisfactory levels.
But, due to their addictions they are not considering the real life expenses hence even they earn small they are enforcing family members to lead a life within that. I guess that must be a wrong approach. An addicted gambler may start affecting his family slowly with these kind of reasons too.
6873  Economy / Economics / Re: Is the economy situation in your country that bad? on: February 01, 2017, 08:15:56 AM
It seems there are bad news all around with doom and gloom. Trade figures going down, jobs cuts, security situation not going well, and bad loans.

Is the economy situation in your country that dismal? Or this is just some fear mongering?

I think that in many countries the economy is jot as bad as we see on public statistics but this is affected by the people who are "bosses" in their countries who do not pay the taxes.

Even though most of people pay the duties that they have to the government still someone in a good position there will do anything to get a small percentage in their pockets.
Yes, those kind of people are not paying taxes and government starts put extra taxes to salaried people. Bank loan is the another area where those people are playing with public money. If government takes strict actions against these people, the economic growth will definitely find good progress for any country.
6874  Economy / Economics / Re: why is it so hard to buy bitcoin on: February 01, 2017, 07:24:38 AM
It is not too hard to buy bitcoin in my place. Although the exchange I am buying it from requires some details about me, that is not a big concern for me. I think the problem is more of my lack of funds for buying a huge amount.

Its good that you can buy bitcoins but generally for most people its not that easy.Most of the exchanges requires verification before they issue Bitcoins. In my country i have only one Website which gives me bitcoins but for that i first have to deposit money in my local bank and then transfer it to their account and they issue me coins and also detects fee.
This way, at least you have one sure shot way to buy bitcoins. But we do not have any such services and to buy bitcoins all the times I need to find a local seller through some services and then need to meet them in person if I want to buy using fiats. Buying bitcoins instantly using fiats still a dream for me.

Not sure where you live but I'm sure as hell that there's money remittance center somewhere near you. There's an internet connection so you must not be from a cave or a forest. Buying bitcoins might not be that convenient in your part but once you get your capital in bitcoin form, you can start experimenting to which field of bitcoins suits you the most (e.g. trading, investing). Buying bitcoins don't have to be instant. The most important thing is that you persevere to have all the knowledge needed to earn bitcoins. There are people that have exchanger, can buy bitcoins in an instant, and have a really fast internet connection but it all goes to waste because they don't make use of it.
No. Buying bitcoins should be instant for me all the time, you cannot say anything on this according to your circumstances.
(When I am able to load my payza/netteller instantly why not I think about buying bitcoins instantly ?)

Earning bitcoin is completely different from buying bitcoins, you should not confuse these two. I already earn decent amount of bitcoins still I prefer buying bitcoins from my day salary.

6875  Economy / Economics / Re: Where can i invest my money? on: February 01, 2017, 05:25:54 AM
With money in hand , invest them in buying land and real estate properties .when understanding the market in mind ,it is advisable to invest them in it and otherwise u can invest them in bitcoins .it is also a good business to invest them .
Real estate must be a god option to invest, but in my country there are no options to invest using bitcoins. I am already investing part of my salary into bitcoins. Now I want to invest bitcoins. But there are some real estate promoters also offer installment options to buy properties, but compared to them bitcoin's promises on returns seem realistic.

6877  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I have about 50$ where to invest ? on: January 31, 2017, 06:24:25 PM
I believe, as per current trends we do not have any other investment opportunities expect investing into bankroll of gambling sites. Sometimes back, we had opportunities in the name of cloud mining, but now they are less profiting or many scam from that industry made us not to consider that as an option.
Yes, it is really unfortunate we do not have enough options to invest our bitcoins.

But I believe clod mining industry may back again due to recent bitcoin price surge. I also wonder why altcoin cloud mining also not booming to get us investment opportunities.

Still, I do not prefer any centralized investments as I am believing only decentralized bitcoin ecosystem alone.
6878  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to know about next pump? on: January 31, 2017, 05:48:06 PM
There's a group of most coin holders and they called themselves as whales since they can manipulate the market, but for small traders like us, I don't think we can easily join them.
I guess this does not need to be true with all the altcoins, but there would be some coins which are being highly manipulated to trap other investors/traders. Well established coins are always the exceptions from this.

Maybe the least we can do is just to predict the market based on the previous trends and get more relevant information that could help us.
Yes, being a trader I am doing this up to the level I am able to. But, it would be really unfortunate to get struck in the middle of sudden pumps by inside people. Our trading strategies are helpful only to some levels, beyond that we are just unlucky traders most of the times.
6879  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I want to learn on: January 31, 2017, 04:29:59 PM
it is different with trading binary we must do cut lost or the system of market will do it automaticly because we have made decision at the beginning.
Yes, we must need a complete different strategy to make profits with binary trading, that is the reason many traders are not into it. All the above, the risks also completely different from other types of trading in binary options. I guess, it would be right that binary trading is another category like gambling and trading.
6880  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Gambling vs Real Gambling on: January 31, 2017, 02:21:29 PM
It is so difficult for the government to trace those online gambling because even they ban some of them, a new site  will be created; they will not succeed on vanishing it. Programmers and developers can make a change easily to their gamble site.

It is why many people choose online gambling because in countries that are banning gambling, they can just simply play it through online. The anonymity of bitcoin gambling made it better because many of the gamblers does want to hide their identities so that no one will find out that they are into gambling activity.
Well that is correct. I have to say that bitcoin is an awesome invention because it helps us to hide our identity and there is no way the government or cyber police can catch us only because Bitcoin is anonymous. In my country, it is a shame if you are found involving in gambling activities and people will insult you for gambling. I hate my country because there are too many restrictions
Yes if we caught in gambling case it is a big shame, so we have to say thanks to bitcoin, why means because of this we are playing online gambling without any issues. There is no tax and no credit card payment, and no any other legal transaction is required. But the only problem is to converting BTC to fiat some exchanger company will send money to bank account. So if you govt track this you will be in problem.
But online gambling can only be possible in such areas where the facilities of internet with good  browsing speed are available, because in most of backward areas people always face the problems of internet and some time the 2G and 3G problems also present there. Due to these reasons, online gambling cannot be succeeded there.
