741  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin money? on: November 28, 2017, 06:08:14 AM
I believe it's the opposite. Bitcoincash may be the gold coin that's really lifeless y now fter tcgold appeared. People are again hyping an additional bitcoin fake so bcc is actually from the scene. All of these btc replicates doesn't remain a chance using the unique and they're just likely to die quickly and get delisted.abb
I think they will not gonna be strong as bitcoin but right now we have to acknowledge their success especially bitcoin cash.
I have invested only in bitcoin and other altcoins except bitcoin's fork so my confidence are on the coins I have invested.


Bitcoin is a money that can really change lives forever. It is very strong that can really help other people on anything. Bitcoin is a money in the internet were you able to purchase something you really wanted online. It is used too to pay your bills by the help of bitcoin. Bitcoin really help secure your future and I really adore bitcoin for being like that. I am really thankful of bitcoin because it can really help other people who was really need this.

Bitcoin is the most valuable coin on internet. Its price at this moment 9500 $ Usd .. the price is still increasing.. The one of reason to choose bitcoin is to hope for a profit in the future. I chose bitcoin because it is a remote possibility of earnings. And it is a great investment and an opportunity to shop online and other good stuff .

Yes, I agree Bitcoin is a digital cryptocurrency were you able to work anywhere with the help of your gadgets and you must be have an internet to connect with bitcoin. You must choose bitcoin because bitcoin is much easier to other currencies. It also help you secure your future lives and give everything what you need if you continue working in here. The transactions in here is also fast and you can pay your bills with the help of bitcoin. I also adore this, so much better to try this.
743  Economy / Economics / Re: How to teach kids about Bitcoin? on: November 27, 2017, 09:51:18 AM
For me teaching kids how bitcoin works is easy. Im a teacher so i have an experience in teaching kids. the first thing that the kids should know is what bitcoin is. and how does it work. what its value and where do they earn bitcoin. kids are the most easy to teach among the ages. right ?
then we will teach them what is the factors of bitcoin and where do earn bitcoin. first of all I will teach them faucet method. so they will be interested cause no money will came out on their pocket. then i will teach investing and trading.

That thing you are mentioning are teens and not toddlers. Teaching children is not easy, believe me, I know it. Beside the concept that you are about to inculcate into their mind is a bit complicated. I know that those teens love new things, they could really learn about it as a "subject" but when you are doing it at home, well it's different. They might think that you are forcing them to work for money.

If they don't want to know about this, I think better not to force them, they might have another forte.

Yes, I really do agree on this, it is too difficult to teach kids about bitcoin and I am pretty sure it is not compulsory to teach kids about bitcoin because it is not a subject in schools that you can get a high grades. Because bitcoin and schools subjects is different. For you it was easy but do you think kids can cope up that fast on your discussion about bitcoin? I guess not that fast but if your willing to teach them then make it step by step for them to understand more about bitcoin.
744  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why are so many people against bitcoin? on: November 26, 2017, 04:51:20 AM
I'm trying to understand why are so many people against bitcoin?  is it the innovation that scares them? the feeling of staying behind? the fact that that money will go to the wrong hands?


Probably, the idea of that people doesn't understand what bitcoin is and what it can do. People should be more understandable and be more curious on what are the positive things that it can help us than thinking of the negative things that which make them feel that bitcoin is not safe and it is dangerous. The reasons also behind this is that news, bank companies and any other online websites that are against with bitcoin spread a fake new around the globe and that manipulates the people of thinking the only negative side of bitcoin. There are many things that we can do with bitcoin and we just think of the advantages we can do and help each other to prevent bitcoin with the wrong hands.

In my opinion, I guess they are not informed about this kind of job. They always think that this work was just last in a short period of time thats why they wont continue to study about this. There are many reason why they were against of bitcoin. There are some people who works in here didn't inform others about this. They dont know that by holding bitcoin they have a lot to do about this. I guess we must not spread yet the news about bitcoin for us to avoid this into a wrong people.
745  Economy / Speculation / Re: Another Fun Poll for BTC vs BCC on: November 25, 2017, 09:03:41 AM
I still keep the BCH. But the price is getting lower. It is quite worrying.

why is it worrying? it cost you nothing. if it goes to nothing then life is gonna continue. i don't think it'll be permitted to go nothing. there's a few extremely deep pockets with a vested interest in keeping it alive.

I stopped worry. The price is rising. I might convert some more bitcoin into Bitcoin Cash. But not very sure.

Should be the other way around. Dump your Bitcoin Cash for Bitcoin. You may never know when is the next dump of Bitcoin Cash and you might be trap inside and the only way to get out is to suffer a lost. While you still have the time then I advise you to get out. Well its worrying because just like any other altcoins, Bitcoin cash and for pump and dump purposes only. Just a few weeks ago we already see how they pump it so hard to reach more than $2000 then immediately dump and take the profit. Those deep pockets that is keeping it again is the same people that is trying to manipulate the price to their advantage.

I guess in the next five years bitcoin will be the most popular cryptocurrency that really helps many people in their living. In the next five years, I think it will be more useful because right now, bitcoins price really continue on increasing and it can help many people on their daily needs. I really adore because eventhough not all people knows this but it can still help because if there is a people who is a kind hearted that willing to help other people who doesn't know this, It is just like bitcoin helps them.
746  Economy / Economics / Re: Would bitcoin help teach kids about saving? on: November 25, 2017, 07:37:44 AM
So I have 2 cousins. One of them doesn't save and is a huge spender while the other is a saver and spends only once a year. So would bitcoin be a good way to teach them about saving? Since, mining bitcoin is the only way to make alot of bitcoin, I would use a alt wallet to show them what happens if you spend and don't save. What do you think?

I believe it is a good thing in general to use as savings, but I don't know if it will necessarily teach kids about it.

Here is the thing - Bitcoin isn't easy to cash out yet. Sure, there are ways to do so within 24 hours, but not for children.

With that said, kids can give their parents money they want to save, or better yet parents can save 1 Bitcoin for their kids. Eventually, it will appreciate into a lot of money which can pay for their schooling, and help them start a family by the time they reach that age.
if the children as breeded to be saving they will save even if not bitcoin,and this is a mature thing because here in crypto they could earn more than their parents can if they lucky enough to make good trading or airdrop from then their mind can be full of chances of not going to school because they earning more than being employee.so better let the children play.let us teach them to save by the things they seeing on us parents

But kids can learn also here on how to save. They can save for there future because in the years came by, I guess this will be the source on how to get money. Then its really good that they will save for there future. Because in new generation, Technology were the most popular wherein other people have their job online. So I guess its not that had that kids must know this because we all know that it can help them.
747  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is changing the world. on: November 24, 2017, 06:32:28 AM
Bitcoin has started to change our lives and change the way we pay. Now prices have become so high that we do not know if this is a good sign. A convenient means of payment will not be reduced to a means of speculation profitable.
Yes indeed there is no doubt that bitcoin is changing world as it changed a life of thousands of people around the world and that’s why world going to accept bitcoin because bitcoin is now very stable and popular in market and its price is also very high as compare to any other currency so I agree with you that bitcoin is changing the world.

Yes I agree, Bitcoin can change the world and especially to our lives because in the near future, I am really sure that Bitcoin is the one we will always use. I agree that it can really change because having gadgets right now is very popular and bitcoin too is a popular cryptocurrency that is very stable. There is no doubt that bitcoin can change the life of many people.
748  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is it good time to buy Bitcoin? on: November 23, 2017, 10:34:00 AM
what we need to know about bitcoin is that it still has lots of room to grow in value and right now which ever price you choose to buy it at, after 1 or 2 years the price you buy it at now will be peanuts in the future.
True, bitcoin prices will continue to rise, never assume today's price is expensive, because tomorrow's price will be more expensive, this is a good time to buy bitcoin because the future of bitcoin will continue to improve.
I agree with you on this one, prices are not static and if you are going to call bitcoin an investment then its okay to buy now.


Yes I also agree on this because bitcoin price is not always high, then take a risk to buy bitcoin. Bitcoin price is continue to rise then much better to take a risk on buying because not everyday bitcoins price is expensive, we dont know that there is a possibility that it drops but we must have a patience, beacause we all know that bitcoins price will be more expensive in coming days and years. It is the time to buy for bitcoins future will continue to improve and the price in this will continue to became expensive for this to help many people.
749  Economy / Economics / Re: How to teach kids about Bitcoin? on: November 23, 2017, 09:25:28 AM
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/9-ways-kids-smarter-money-100050132.html

This article doesn't talk about bitcoin but it got me thinking how to get kinds interested in bitcoin within the context of appropriate money management lessons. Think of we could teach kinds about it. The growth, the adoption, the inflation and retraction. The allure of the "internet money".

...what other ideas come to mind?

In teaching kids about bitcoin, you can give examples to them, let's say the games that they play and then try to relate bitcoin into that said game. You need let them know that once you have bought something in that game using real money, they value it so much as they can sell it in the future. The same procedure applies when it comes to bitcoin.
It's easy to teach the kids, but the question is do we really need to teach them as their young age.
Bitcoin is a serious matter, there is a risk in using it because they will have freedom to use it in anything they want, this is like money
when you teach them how to spend and they have a lot of it they might use it in a wrong way.

For me its not easy to teach kids,I also got difficulties when my first time in here. I guess we much teach kids on this because for sure in their generation, they will use this kind of money. I guess its time to teach them so that they will know how to save even in their young age. But we must teach them step by step, not that really fast so that they will not experience difficulties just like me.
750  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why use Bitcoins ? on: November 23, 2017, 07:04:42 AM
Why use Bitcoins ?

I keep seeing threads on “why don't people” ? The real question to me is Why would they ?

-The average consumer will go way out of their way to save money. Bitcoins cost more.
-The average consumer will usually pay a little extra to have convenience. Bitcoin is less convenience and more hoops and complications.

I just cannot see any reason for the average consumer to use Bitcoins. Until average consumers start using Bitcoins they will just be an experiment and a small speculative bubble.

I have my personal reasons, I am interested Bitcoins them as a tech person, speculative investor and person that follows evolving treads and markets. I am just struggling to see any.. benefits for the average consumer at this stage.   
You should use bitcoin because in bitcoin you can gain so much money and with bitcoin you will be able to make your time and your effort so productive. You an be a millionaire with the help of bitcoin and you can be it using the less of your time and the less of your effort.

Yes I agree that because of bitcoin we can gain so much money and can buy any item you wanted online. Its very easy that you will not waste your time and effort on thinking where you buy your daily needs, it makes your time and effort productive. You can store an amount of money here in bitcoin. Just what I say a while a go, bitcoin really helps you on something.
751  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are you surprise by bitcoin price now? on: November 23, 2017, 04:24:30 AM
to be honest, I was so amazed, and a bit sorry for always selling bitcoin that I have at a low price. well, maybe this is a lesson so we always hold the bitcoin we have whatever happens, as long as it is in need.
Stock markets and currency exchanges transfer money from the impatient to the patient. Smiley

Absolutely, I am beyond surprise, infact I am really shocked. I am happy that bitcoins price goes up because it really help many people. I am happy because I can help many more people who was needed this. If bitcoins price drop then have a patient to wait because maybe that was our lesson if we can wait and hold bitcoin whatever happens.
752  Economy / Economics / Re: Can Bitcoin End World Poverty? on: November 23, 2017, 03:11:46 AM
I don't think it can end the world poverty but i believe it can lessen the poverty. Because there are a lot of crypto related jobs created by bitcoin and the other crypto related currency. Because if some people know how to used internet then he managed to get here and looking for a extra job. He can search here and look for services that fits him/her. I think people need to educate their self about bitcoin and how they will benefit from using it.

Bitcoin is not a magic wand that can end word poverty. If you will do your best then I guess theres a possibility that it can end word poverty. It can't end but poverty must be lessen. If there are many people who knows how to use internet then I guess it can end, I mean poverty can be lessen. First you must have to get information or you must gather data about bitcoin. People need to educate theirself about bitcoin for them to have an extra job and an extra income.
753  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to explain bitcoin to teenagers or children on: November 22, 2017, 05:47:55 AM
[ author=mitchr4 link=topic=1600381.msg24991950#msg24991950 date=1511318764]
Knowing Bitcoin is as easy as regular learning. If they have special skills in technology or computers they will more easier to learn about bitcoin. Moreover, we can also access and learn on the internet. Bitcoin is the first currency that can be used as an investment, payment, and others by knowing Bitcoin early they will get feel the benefits.
Everything is easy with the help of the internet as you can access information for free.
Bitcoin is all online and children can easily learn if they will listen, however, we need to ensure we are not wasting our time, bitcoin could be useful
to them in the future but maybe not at his early age.
[/quote]

Yes it was easy if there is internet but teaching childrens about that? I guess its difficult for them. I also have difficulties when my first time in here because bitcoin is really difficult to explain but if you wanted then teach them about bitcoin but in step by step. If you will teach them so fast then I guess they will experience difficulties too, just like me.
754  Economy / Economics / Re: So, you want to be rich? All of you ? on: November 21, 2017, 01:01:07 PM
Just imagine. If ALL OF US would be rich, that means we would live our lives out from dividends, or any passive income of at least $1k a month. Then it would be jawesome, right ? Well, but then I do have a question.
WHO on this Earth would bake the bread for ALL OF US ?
Robots, you might say?
OK, nice idea.
But then, WHO on Earth would maintenance these robots ?
Another robots ?
I don't think so.
Even if so, even if there would be a Skynet of robots, who would not just bake the bread, but also harvest the grains, transport it, deliver to our doors. What then ?
We could eat for free, as much as you want?
Cool, but what about overweight then.
Doctor? But hey wait, NO ONE on this Earth work, so we have no doctors.
OK, we have Doctor Robots.
Who would teach our kids? Robots! Who would change the diapres? Robot!
Even if humans would master all this, we would need to have all the knowledge to teach our robots to work for us. To be slaves for us. (no minds, just pure robotic hands/arms and so on, Tesla's and autopilots)
But even then, there is one huge problem.
I do not want to touch any country, or race, or group of people, but imagine, if you put infinite amount of resources to any kind of animal (including humans), they would reproduce themselves to infinite. Because they simply can. Because parents do not need to parent their kids anymore, because we have robots! So we would need a limit of reproducing, no right to reproduce as much as you can handle (infinite resources), because we would simple have like 50-100billion people on this planet, and there would be no robots who could grow so much grains to bake bread. (perhaps hyper dense pills could be the away).
So, back to the original question, why do people believe, they all can be rich ?
It was, is, and will be, ALWAYS about that who is going to earn more, not enough, but more than the others.
Why?
If there is only one mansion on the Bahamas, which is large enough, sunny enough, sexy enough, there is no freaking way, ALL OF US could buy it. Just one. 1. One. And if only 10 buyers come with their million, to who would seller sell this mansion to? First ? But second also have million and ALL OF US want to be rich (own that one mansion). So second would have to offer 2 million, right?
Wrong.
No one would want to sell such mansion in the first place, as he is already rich. We all are.

This is one of the great unknowns, in order for the balance of system of the universe to be obtain, one must be good and must be bad. Like the process of yin and yang, black or white and good and bad. You're referring to the general Idea and the sad part is that people or this society won't function that way. I don't know what is the force that is binding humans why there must be rich or poor but the balance I think will collapse if that happened. We can't really have it all and sad to say. Humans can't be just like that. We want but can't. Embarrassed
that is true , op just expresses an imaginary opinion . it is more like a sci-fi lol . we won't become rich equally . it is just normal when someone have a dream to become rich , as money nowadays feel like a god . why god?

because god can do anything , and with money you can do anything too.

Yes, I also agree on this. All people was dreaming to became rich, but who will be the one that can teach on our future children if we are all rich? The robots?. I enter this kind of job not to be rich or something. I enter this to help my family through financial and I really want to help other people who really need something. I dont want to be rich, Yes, I dont want too because I am already rich, rich for the love of my family. They taught me on how to help others thats why I really wanted to help other people.
755  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is BTC for you? on: November 21, 2017, 12:07:24 PM
BTC for me is a currency,well from the word cryptocurrency itself. Bitcoin is most likely a money we can use bitcoin to buy in some stores that accepting btc and that's what bitcoin uses for.

It's not a currency for me. It's actually an investment instrument for me. I don't want it to be a world currency. It should stay as this, because we all want it to be $100.000 at the end.

Its not a currency? But I guess it was, Bitcoin is a digital currency wherein you can gain something working in here. It was created by the name of satoshi nakamoto that we must to thank because of the great opportunity that has given to us. Bitcoin helps through our financial needs. Bitcoin was not control by anyone. It was more likely a money where you can purchase something online or buy something online.
756  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to explain bitcoin to teenagers or children on: November 20, 2017, 06:19:57 AM
It's probably a good idea to teach kids about how to get rich, but I think you should teach them when they're 16, which is probably a reasonable age.
my advice is better to tell as simple as possible,because they still need developments about his education and must finish school first.Because to understand BTX requires good insight and education to quickly understand it san after they finished school may be time to understand deeper to know about BTC,but stick with its stance and give suggestions stay focused with what is in its ideals and make BTC as a side or addition to what we want to achieve.Do wisely for generasai us and give the best example for them besides make motivation as helping his needs to achieve his goals.

That was my Idea too, because bitcoin is difficult to understand, just like my first time in here but if you will study it step by step, I guess we will understand it. In our country 98% of children or teenager dont know about bitcoin. In fact, Bitcoin is a future money. My advice was if we will teach them or tell them about bitcoin then my suggestion was, we must tell them step by step or should I say the simple thing about bitcoin for them to understand just a small thing. If we will not teach them then who? we must tell them about this to get involved in digital era on the future or should I say to know this better.
757  Economy / Economics / Re: So, you want to be rich? All of you ? on: November 19, 2017, 03:18:42 AM
Not me dude, I dont care for this notion of rich. I want to live and lead a simple life with good people in it and good food. That is about all I want out of life, oh and travel a little bit too. Dont need to be rich to do these things

gotta have good people around mainly to do them and I have this.
But that is being rich, to have a life with no worries of where your next pay is going to come from, that is why there are a lot of persons that have a lot of money but are not rich since they have a lot of material possessions but instead of them owning stuff, the stuff owns them since they are heavily in debt and they are going to be like that for the rest of their lives.
Yes. being rich is the struggle of every individual in this world, that is the reason why most of people sacrifice their time for the family just because to earn money and aiming for someday to get rich in money to support in every family's financial needs. i know some people working 16 hours a day just to seek more money to free him from debt, therefore dreaming rich is always  the goal in every people around the world.
Yes every one want to be rich and I also want to be rich and I think bitcoin is the only hope for me to make me rich and for that I’m doing hard work here so I’m sure end of the year bitcoin will make me able to buy a new house because one of my friend he already bought a new house just because of bitcoin so I’m sure that I will be success in my dream.
Bitcoin is not the only way for you to become rich because the only way to become rich is to have a great determination because if you have that determination then even though with or without bitcoin you will be having a great future and you can be rich like what you want. Bitcoin is indeed one of the way to become rich and become the way for us to reach our dreams if we will just do it right.

Hate to burst your bubble, but having a lot of determination is not going to guarantee that you will become rich. Tons of people have great determination but they will never become rich. Becoming rich take s a certain set of skills and or actions that one does like saving money, developing a trade, becoming a highly skilled professional like a doctor, lawyer, etc. and in general knowing how to run a business. Going to McDonalds working 9-5 will not make you a millionaire or rich no matter how much determination one had.

Yes bitcoin will help you became rich. All of us were dreaming to be rich, all people wanted that. But for me? I dont want to be just rich because my goal is to help other people thats why I was doing my best to have many bitcoins to save. Helping other people makes me happy especially helping my family in there daily needs. All I want is to help other people to be the reason of there happiness. Having this kind of job really enjoys me the most because through this I can support my family financially and help other people to make them happy.
758  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can the value of bitcoin raise in 10,000$ in 2018? on: November 18, 2017, 07:41:21 AM
Bitcoin is surprisingly rising its value. Can it achieve a 10,000$ exchange rate?  

I was really wondering!  

Your thoughts guys!

I believe so. I'm stating this based off the fact that more people have come out of the fork seeing that bitcoin is able to stand its ground against attacks like segwit. Furthermore, we will see more technological support for Bitcoin from sites like Amazon and perhaps even large companies like VISA. If this is the case, this large amount of support cannot hurt bitcoin. Instead, we'll see some nice spikes upwards and hopefully that can give way to the bitcoin explosion!

Right now we are breaking $8000 if we can reach that amount then why not right? I really believe it too, I guess just a month later we can reach $10000 if we break that $8000. Bitcoin price will goes higher right now and my guess was, there is a possibility that it will goes higher and higher for the coming yearss for this to help many people who was needed this.
759  Economy / Speculation / Re: what do you think about bitcoin price in 2018? on: November 16, 2017, 09:34:48 AM
I think this bubble will end before the end of this year or at much the first half of 2018. Resulting in a long lasting bear market. But before that there will be some more bull runsans and price will touch 10K or even 20K.
My crystal ball said it.
Many people have imagined a lot of bubble ending and then we just kept seeing the value increasing over time. I remember sometime on this thread that someone said bitcoin can never go past $15 and then even if it does, would come back to 5-10$ and stay within that lane. Well, we are here today and it has even gone far more than anyone back then would have expected. I guess so many people sold a lot even at that value back then and they must have been regretting it now.

For me, I guess bitcoin price in 2018 will goes than this year. Sometimes there is a possibility that bitcoin price goes down but I guess in this kind of job, we need patience for us to gain more for the following years. Bitcoin is a big help for many people who was working here. Eventhough bitcoin's price will drop then there are many people who was selling there bitcoin's then I guess I agree that they regret on what they do. They regret because they dont know the word patience. So for me in 2018 bitcoin price will be much higher as now. That was just my opinion.
760  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin money? on: November 16, 2017, 08:31:20 AM
In my opinion Yes, Bitcoin is money because i can buy things i want using Bitcoin of course i need to exchange it first to cash but that is easy to do as long as you have a virtual debit card like wirex. You can exchange Bitcoin to any currency fast and easy and used that virtual card to shop online.

Yes me too, I agree that it is a money, money in the internet that you can use to buy things you wanted online. Bitcoin already help many people, for there financial and everything they need. Some other people tell that Bitcoin make them rich, On the very first place I got really confused about this but when I already know the uses of bitcoin then I was really surprise. Bitcoin can exchange into cash like what they say and that was a very big help for us.
