The best thing is to find some kind of balance between holding and investing/spending so for that you shouldn't be passive and just sit and wait but watch the market closely and participate. On long term I think you could only profit but for more substantial one you have to take the risk from time to time.

This doesn't represent any actual threath to bitcoin so why be worried. Many information are showing at the moment that spliting could be avoided and nothing spectacular and dramatic will not happen. But I expect more irrelevant and panic news in the upcoming days so nothing unusual.

Business world it's all about the data today and that is one of the most important and relevant fields today. As soon as you realize that you can get your advantages in business so it's not wise to miss the opportunity.

Exactly, I.think only early adopters got realy rich. Today it's not so easy anymore. You have to be a hell of the trader, very skilled and experienced, have a bit luck too and you probably only have decent profit. I don't beleive in instant profit anyway, lik they say easy come, easy go.

I would like to join

Will add signature if accepted.

I beleive that experienced and skilled users haven't even lost the confidence. And for them panic selling was out of the question. We will see how the situation will develope but maybe there is also chance to avoid spliting which would be the best for all.

It's complex questio. Because of western countries who got involved in many arabic/muslim countries because of oil or political interest in a way that harmed that countries and their people many radical resistance groups have appeared. It's not islam that promotes terorrism but some very bad and corrupted people who think violence and killing innocent will solve their problems.

I say you are brave if you want quit your job for bitcoin. I mean bitcoin is good investment but.is it enough to make decent living every month? I.don't know what kind of job do you have but I suggest to keep it and make bitcoin your additional source of income, this is the best option.

I beleive this is a very close future. Banks have already shown their interest for bitcoin and some are activley ecperimenting with it. They are looking for their own interest and profit and they will be ready to offer to the clients Bitcoin services at the moment they find it profitable and with risk they can take.

I wouldn't dare to rent my computer, not to some person I don't know. This is very risky, who can guarantee that the computer will not be used for some illegal activities or hacker attacks? It's so convenient. I don't beleive that someone would take that risk for so little money.

And how would that be functioning? Every political party is organized according to some hierachy and loyalty so not everyone if he is member of the party can't do what he wants. But that doesn't mean this is not democratic approach. I have a feeling that people just have too much expectations of decentralization.

Even bitcoin is not so good to invest all the funds in it. There is a risk despite good chances for even biger profit in the future. But situation can always change and secure investment just don't exists. Don't ever put all eggs just in one basket even if it's about bitcoin, diversify you investment and you will be more protected against the loss.

Arbitrage trading could be very profitable but it's very risky at the same time and you can ebd up with losses. It's not so easy to monitor all exchangers and be fast enough to trade with success. It takes a lot of experience and time invested so I wouldn't suggest it for beginers.

Only few can make money on forex, the majority are in constant loss. Making money on forex is for experienced, those who are dealing with that kind of trading for a long time. Besides there are so many scam scheems tied to forex and I know few naive people who have lost big deal of money.

Actualy we don't know what will exactly happen at August 1, these are all speculations and rumors. The whole story is just exaggerated and even.now some users begun to panic. This is probably the goal to make some users sell their coins.I don't fall for that.

I don't know anyone who has managed to stay a recreational drug user, how you have called it. Drugs causes addition and sooner or later you will not be able to stop that habbit anymore and that leads to all kind of problems, so stay out of it. On drugs you will spend a fortune and get nothing but troubles.

I wouldn't suggest that, there are other platforms where you can buy bitcoins and get more protected. I don't think ebay will take some action in case of some problems with sellers, trading bitcoin is not part of the usual business. Rather choose localbitcoins, it's better and.more safe.
