7121  Economy / Economics / Re: Do You Think Bitcoin Will Replace Dollar Soon? on: June 05, 2017, 06:52:51 AM
It will not happen so bitcoin can replace the existing dollar in fact bitcoin will be the same position as the dollar because the value of other coins should be exchanged into bitcoin as well as the currency of all countries increase in price following the movement of the dollar.

It's not going to happen as dollar is in the world a lot of years already. People will choose to use dollar instead of bitcoin. No matter what happens, bitcoin will be used digitally and when it comes to fiat, that's the place where dollar will dominate almost all countries from their foreign exchange rates.
Bitcoin could be a great fuel to increase dollar circulation in this world and the same with other legal currency, there is nothing to compare and both can help a faster online transaction. Bitcoin is limited only for online transaction and it is not regulated by the government, it has its unique purpose and it's a compete opposite of dollar so it will not surpass the value or popularity of dollar.
7122  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin make Banks disappear? on: June 05, 2017, 05:23:55 AM
I think anything could happen, depending on market conditions, when there is no bank customer and everyone switched to the bitcoin and then bank will disappear soon.

Anything could happen but I doubt that it will happen with bitcoin. As we know banks are powerful and they are with the government. This type of scenario is not going to let happen by the superiors because big income tax will be slashed to the annual tax income of the government because of bitcoin.
If we really think of the realistic thing that will happen I believe you will not come up with that imagination, bitcoin is never superior as real money because it is only funded with fiat to make it worthy. With the government in control in this world, bank is the major financial institution for them and I don't think they will let that replace by anything not under their control.
7123  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do you manage ur emotions? on: June 05, 2017, 05:12:02 AM
Emotions are a natural part of human nature. instead of trying to control them, acknowledge that they are there and will affect your decision making. once you can do this, you can compensate for emotional influence in your trading. Your emotions when trading will get better over time as you gain experience.
It's doable, you can control your emotion and you will be making a good decision along the way, all you need to do is acknowledge your mistakes and learn from it, the more mistakes you make the more you become stronger as long as you understand fully your purpose in trading.
No guaranteed money in trading so do not be frustrate when you have a bad time because time will come you can get what you are aiming, it needs patience.

I agree woth both of you. Patience is the key so we don't panic when we get negativr results. Always be positive when you make trades as you're more likely to make bad decisions if you're upset. Just keep yourself in check and don't let the results of your trade direct your decisions, you must have a plan that you have to follow

and remember to buy low and sell high. Hence, don't sell too early even if you are on the losing side because you get afraid on the price outcome because it will really go up and down, just capitalize on that fact and enter at its low price and get out at its high price.
Weak hands lose in the game because they will choose to sell to take a loss to trade with other assets or some just enter without educating themselves. I never sell for a lose because I can still trade with my other assets using the diversification method, it would be easier if we keep reading so we will not panic and make a wrong decision.
7124  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: June 04, 2017, 10:17:09 PM
I play for fun, I can get overly excited though and make stupid moves but I rarely gamble so it works out in the end.
Gambling rarely is a really good thing to do as i have personally noticed you get better chances of winning as the seeds are likely to be reset and as we gamble more there is more chance of us losing. But I'm not saying this works always. Only gamble for fun as gambling for profit mostly gives loses
That is what you called a superstitious belief in gambling, I know there are people doing that but in reality it does not increase their chances of winning, it may work for awhile but we know the reality will also exist which is we will still lose in the long run. I never think there is a method to win in dice if you are aiming for a consistent and long term win because with house edge are made for sole entertainment for the gamblers.

Cleveland Cavaliers Vs Golden State Warriors - Game 2

Although the Cavaliers have lost Game 1, previous records show that the loser of Game 1 won 4 of last 6 championship. It is not over yet.
James and his team know that Cavaliers need to win Game 2 so that they can return back to home court with a 1-1 tie. If they lost Game 2, it would be an uphill task to tie the Series.
I believe James will not give up without a fight so I will bet on Cavaliers +9.

This may be true but in the face of the players that the Golden State Warriors have I doubt it's going to happen. Cavaliers need to reinforce the team next year,I don't see any hope for them this time around.
What actually happen in game 1 challenges the cavaliers to give their best in game 2, the line is too high considering both teams are the best in the NBA. Game 1 was a blessing for the cavaliers bettors because of impressive performance of the warriors the line now is gives is favorable to the cavaliers.

If the cavaliers will lose in this game, I do not think it would be the same result in game 1, they had 20 turnovers if I remember it right, I think it will not happen again. Also, when both teams are playing good offensively, the over should hit in this game, I'll go with over 220 and cavaliers +9.

Waves break into top 10 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization


It was just lately when I saw waves hit 1 dollar and now it's already 5 dollars, what a very fast progress, it was not that good last year but this could be the best year of waves since it has increase this far.

I hope I was not too late to add more waves in my wallet, price is currently pumping, I need to do a good timing before buying more.
7127  Economy / Economics / Re: Reason why you should Buy bitcoin now on: June 03, 2017, 06:11:28 AM
I hope the price will continue to rise and get profit in the future day, I'm sure that the price of the bitcoin will continue to skyrocket because of the number of users who continue to surge.
Just continue believing, it will rise over time and it is good to see the price will slowly but steady rise than a pump and dump game.
What makes me believe it will rise is that because there have been new investors that are coming in and bitcoin is getting more popular at any part of the world, imagine what the value is if people will consistently use bitcoin, we can have that in the future so right now we have to start buying and holding bitcoin.
7128  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: June 03, 2017, 05:38:38 AM
if you want to make your money grow, invest it in bitcoin and hold it for a long term. saving in banks doesnt give you much, instead save your money in bitcoin. in short its better to invest your money than saving it aside from give you higher interest its also allows you to beat the inflation.
That's the thing we should be doing, however not all people are convince with the idea because they do not fully trust bitcoin itself.
It's hard to convince people if they are not interested in knowing bitcoin, what gives us the confidence to invest is our knowledge in bitcoin and because we understand what is bitcoin it gives us the guts to hold it for a longer period of time, we are all expecting an increase of the value of our holdings.
7129  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you like best about bitcoin? on: June 03, 2017, 02:22:30 AM
I really like this bitcoin. Because the bitcoin is acceptable anywhere. And more practical to carry because it is digital. The conversion is easy to change to local currency. What's more over time running the botcoin price is getting higher and this is what makes me more love to bitcoin
Besides, it's very easy to make a profit from bitcoin, and so many ways to make it more. This makes people feel better about finding bitcoins than others. In addition, the coins are also so expensive, so that makes people more excited to look for it.
Not all the time, it could rise or fall so it depends on the situation, if you are working for bitcoin you need to be patient not to sell your coins right away if you want a bigger income. The good thing here is we will get a competitive earning because we are basing on global standard and if you are living in poor country I'm pretty sure you will earn a decent income here, however it depend on what you do and how you utilize your time.
7130  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: June 03, 2017, 02:07:36 AM
I'm laughing about how right everyone here was about Durant playing a key role this year in the championship series.

Cavaliers were down 0-3 last year before they came back to win.

I'm thinking they may be down 0-2 or 0-3 before they start to comeback.
You're wrong their last year was 3-1 defecit. Game 1 and 2 won by GSW. Game 3 won by Cavs and Game 4 won by GSW that make the series 3-1.

Last year is different from the currently series. All are healthy and with KD addition in GSW line-up. Look at game 1 only LJ can match with KD and the rest are mismatch to him. If they make a switch KD is almost unstoppable. GSW will win in this series.
You people are hyping the first game win by the warriors, no wonder the line was up now and I will be glad to pound that because the warriors are overvalued on game 2 due to what happen in game 1. I am a gamble myself and I like to fade what with the public's perception so if you want to win take the point spread in game 2 or moneyline then if you lose double in game 3. I don't think the warriors will sweep the cavaliers, there's a way to win if the league will allow this to happen.
7131  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do you manage ur emotions? on: June 02, 2017, 06:21:06 AM
we are not a machine, but you can define hard principles and keep to it. Intuition is also emotion, but it is also based on your individual experience, so emotions can have a positive value.
You are giving a general definition, what we are discussing here is the emotion that will cause a negative result in our trading, it is when we will not gonna follow our plan because we let our weakness in trading manage us. This is a common problem for some traders especially the newbie because they are too aggressive when they do not have enough experience.
7132  Economy / Economics / Re: Best way for steady income on: June 02, 2017, 04:03:25 AM
Getting a job is the best option for getting a steady income, after that you invest some money into any business you want and thus this will eliminate some pressure from you.

This is the best way to get a good and steady income and even you will get a minimum payment. As long as you will get salary on weekly/semi monthly or monthly basis its a good thing. And while you are having a good salary, you can still trade with altcoins and use salary as your capital for it.
Many people have steady income because they hvae regular job or permanent job like military they have permanent job they cannot apply again to another company . If you have regular job i think your salary start with the business because if you do this you can earn a lot of money but it depends on the business you can create . Many people create good business so many people like this.
The business will not give you a fixed profit or income. Because of course your business will go up and down according to the circumstances. But the business will provide great benefits. Greater than a fixed salary


It will not for sure but it will give you a security for your future and but you will be limited, there are people who are easily contented with their lives so they do not need to venture into business and they are safe. However, most of us wants a good life where we will not experience any financial problem, with that goal we need to take risk which is to venture into investments.
7133  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: June 02, 2017, 03:41:40 AM
Cleveland Cavaliers downed at 12 from 21 point lead deficit as of Im typing this. Lebron James seems not getting on aggressive mode in every plays but he already made a decent contribution out of his relax movement.  They are on slow phase and now trying to minimize the lead by the Golden State Warriors. I thought after those 21 points lead they will on bench mode but not yet. Steph Curry now with 6 3's out of his 26 points. Let's see until the end.

EDIT: now at 19 pts lead lol
GS warriors wins for this first match with 3 digit points with Warriors with 20+ points lead with total of 113-91 points, and still warriors is still undefeated. I guess the cavs are less fortunate for this match there are so many mess even james can't play well. And Kevin Durant played well for this match. And yes curry improves a lot.
That was a pretty easy game for the warriors, Durant got his first win in the NBA finals in warriors uniform, looks like this guy is so motivated and he wants to have his first championship. Good decision by Durant, I was so surprise with the way he defend Lebron, he is an all around player now, congratulations warriors backers, I got money today.
7134  Economy / Economics / Re: Make money from money on: May 31, 2017, 01:00:47 PM
The knowledge of the market and I can tell you that personally from my experience. The one of the most important things is to know the market and to be patient, luck is just a factor we have no control of but you'll need it too.
No knowledge of the market can't generate income without luck. Any coordinated actions of speculators in the market may trigger the fall and rise of prices. This nobody can predict except the speculators. In their multimillion-dollar amount which a few days can completely change the situation.

I agree with you it seems luck factor is more dominant to earn income of course for those of us who tend not to have big capital. And definitely different from speculators who have large capital and dare speculation in trading or other activities
When it comes to investing we need to be serious and be realistic with our approach, luck is not the determining factor to succeed otherwise we will not try our very best to improve and be knowledgeable or we will just all be gambling where at the same we are also entertain.
Making money from money is a common phrase, it is the words describing what the risk takers do and they succeeded because they are smart not lucky alone.
7135  Economy / Economics / Re: Can Bitcoin also lead to corruption ? on: May 31, 2017, 12:26:11 PM
Yes and that's for sure, we remember the past where bitcoin prices soared up in 2011, there are drug cartels buying bitcoin to launder their money, bitcoin prices are getting taller until finally the silk road comes up. The world's first tor market that provides online buying and selling of drugs and transactions using bitcoin as its currency. If a corrupt person thinks of saving his money into bitcoin, then it can happen and it is very sad

Many launder their money through bitcoin or engage in illegal purchases, but this does not mean that everyone is so determined to use the crypto currency. Corruption can be with any currency.
It's a decision, every user has their own and even if with paper money money laundering is possible, there is nothing wrong with bitcoin, it simply shows how powerful the system is and because it's anonymous users has the confidence to use it at anything they like to.
The simple answer is yes it can lead to corruption but then again you cannot blame it to the currency itself, the person who is using shall be responsible.

I personally feel, ETH is a real threat to bitcoin growth....
Not ETH but all cryptocurrency. I am sure, future of bitcoin economic will brilliantly, now a lot of people and companies who believe in the existence of cryptocurrency especially the bitcoin. prices will continue to rise because of the bitcoin users continues to increase.
You have to be ready for the possibilities in the future, start buying all the coins that are listed in the top 10 in coinscapmarket, they have all the potential to step in bigger stage in the future,while bitcoin keeps increasing its value the developers of the alts continue to update their project and that will lead to a bigger value in the future to come, you know how the investors react, they tend to hype the news.
7138  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Giving up gambling is not easy on: May 31, 2017, 05:56:47 AM
If you cant control your feelings related to gambling,you are  addicted to gamble. Ask from betting site to block your account Smiley

This will go near to a severe gambling addiction. But I doubt it that gambling site will block your account, you are their customer and they will not allow a single customer to stop playing and passing out to his addiction. No gambler means no profit for them so as a gambler you should do something about it, just don't believe gambling sites so that you won't be tempted.
Definitely they will not, they don't care about what you will feel because they are in the business and their main objective is to be profitable.
It should be the gamblers initiative to treat what he is doing, he need to be matured enough before entering in gambling to ensure he will not be easily addicted and will enjoy gambling as it should be.
7139  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is Holding Bitcoin a long time good way to make money? on: May 31, 2017, 02:03:19 AM
Seeing the growth rates of previous years, holding a Bitcoin is a real great way to make money. Holding them for 3 to 4 years can increase your principal amount many times.
yeah a lot of people holding their bitcoin for long time and you are right that its great way to make a big profit from bitcoin and people strongly believe in bitcoin price that bitcoin price increasing too much faster because people holding bitcoin for the future.
i agree with you about holding bitcoin for long time , i think that holding bitcoin for 2 or 3 years will be profitable because bitcoin price increasing too much faster and i hope bitcoin price will be $4000 in the next year so hold your bitcoin is much more better for our future. 
Being optimistic will encourage us to hold more, $4,000 is very easy this year, we are halfway there with the current price and I don't think people will not be aggressive to buy more when they continue to hear good news about bitcoin. If Ethereum were able to have a good increase this year, I think bitcoin can surpass that success.
7140  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the best source of bitcoin nowadays? on: May 31, 2017, 01:41:21 AM
I think the best source of bitcoin nowadays is trading, then the signature campaign. If you have good experience and knowledge about trading I think it can help to generate good amount of bitcoins weekly.
Trading is the best source for me although I have some supplementary income coming from my job online but it does not pay as much as I can earned in trading. What's good in trading is that you just need to look on the right timing to buy low and sell high, the same process is done all the time and when you can master it you can consistently make money.
