Bitcoin already become cyber space gold. It is the de facto standard for cyber cash. It has large adoptions and is going to all domains. I'd expect bitcoin to hit $2000 in a year or two.
As the economy of bitcoin is becoming stronger, we must also ensure that our wallets are very secure so the moment we will decide to cash out with a big profit, we will be able to realize our dreams. We cannot stop what is happening now, it seems like people are really coming in and they are creating demand which dictates the price go to up consistently.
7482  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin better or paypal? on: December 27, 2016, 01:10:36 PM
In many ways, Yes it is. Way better than Paypal. The main advantage is that Bitcoin is not a company as Paypal is. Paypal does whatever it wants, takes a lot of fees, chargeback process is hectic and service is pathetic. Angry
but then why a lot of merchants adopt paypal rather than bitcoin?
okay it is just the matte of time that paypal older than bitcoin ,
but can you see a good thing happened in bitcoin development recently?
i don't think so , there is a very slow development for merchants to accept bitcoin, how can you say bitcoin better than paypal now?
Simply because paypal is govern by the law and regulation and users feel comfortable with transaction where government are supporting, in bitcoin some of the transactions we can make are a shady one, we can use bitcoin in gambling and it's also rampant in the dark web for illegal transactions like selling of drugs.

A legitimate businessmen is at fear on the weak side of bitcoin as they do not want their business to be compromise in the future.
7483  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling be considered a "high risk investment"? on: December 27, 2016, 12:42:08 PM
Gambling always come with a risk to loose , and the risk is getting higher at the current bitcoin price with a daily big increase so it is better to hold till the price of bitcoin steady at all level.
I think increase/decrease of price doesn't matters, folks don't stop gambling if the price rises/fells down. bitcoin price won't be steady, it'll keep on fluctuating. atm the risk is high so is the reward.

Yes, the risk doesn't have something to do with the price increase or fluctuations of bitcoin. As long as we are going to invest your time and bitcoin with gambling by simply playing it. Then your are putting yourself into a total risk and there is no guarantee that you will be able to get some profit especially if you are chasing your losses.
Gambling with lower advantage is a complete risk, only gambling sites are making money because they have a bigger advantage than us, they can make money in the long run while we lose in the long run as well. It works that way, and there's nothing we can do to change our destiny in gambling.
7484  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Worst mistake in gambling on: December 27, 2016, 12:32:28 PM
Worst mistake in gambling is gambling lool

No it isn't, we are the ones who are making gambling as a worst mistake but simply not being a responsible gambler. But because we think that gambling is going to be the source of income is that the worst thing that we are always thinking. And upon having a lot of lose then the blame will always goes to gambling but not to ourselves.
It won't work if you even consider gambling as not source of income.
Slowly but sure gambling drive you to something that actually you don't want, yeaaa an addiction.
Gambling is addictive, if you have no idea to handle gambling in right way it will always be a big mistake IMHO.

Yes it is addictive, but if you are an addicted responsible gambler you will set some amount that you afford to lose. But if you are just an addicted gambler and you gamble all the way, then for sure you are going to make yourself drag into the borderline of losing a lot of your money.

Lol there is no such thing as addicted responsible gambler. Addicted and Responsible contradict each other.

Code:
ad·dict·ed
əˈdiktəd/
adjective
physically and mentally dependent on a particular substance, and unable to stop taking it without incurring adverse effects.

Code:
re·spon·si·ble
rəˈspänsəb(ə)l/
adjective
having an obligation to do something, or having control over or care for someone, as part of one's job or role.

Did you see the contradicting Idea?  There is no such thing as addicted responsible gambler.  It is either you are addicted or in control with your self.

You can never be both sides of a coin. You can either be responsible, or addicted to it. If you're addicted to something, I think you can't be responsible and would just gamble and gamble whenever you get the chance to do it. There's no way that you would be a responsible but addicted to  it.
Addiction in gambling is the worst outcome of what we are doing, and that is not a good outcome as being addicted will make us lose more than we can afford to lose, and when we are addicted, we devote more time in gambling and we will not be able to live a balance life.

As a person, we have a responsibility with our society and to our family but when addicted, we will not be thinking of that anymore as what in our mind is just gambling.
7485  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do Bitcoins have Tax?? on: December 27, 2016, 12:26:09 PM
BTC Paying taxes on any earned income or anything with value is good. You can record all blockchain transactions showing proof. Pay your tithes, pay your taxes. BTC
but the government will not know how many bitcoin address you have mate and they will not know where is it your bitcoin address? bitcoin will never fit to apply the tax mate. so do not push it
If the government approved, I think the country must accept bitcoin as one alternative payment. For now, I sure this is impossible, because can make other problems and regulations.
If ever the government will regulate bitcoin, it cannot still be fully regulated because we will continue to be anonymous since the system is designed to be decentralized, once decentralized it will connect us with being anonymous and maybe when the government will make strict polity towards it, people will not continue to support bitcoin.
7486  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: December 27, 2016, 12:14:28 PM
I wouldn't recommend you to gamble for profit as you will always end up losing.

Gambling should be a fun hobby that you do for excitement,not a thing that you do to earn money.

If you keep gambling for excitement and not for profit, you won't find yourself at a situation that you lost more money then you planned.


That is just a the same thing there are people who are gambling for entertainment who are also losing a lot since they are having fun. They really don't care at all no matter how much they lose because the important thing to them is that they are enjoying the money that they are worked hard. So whether we gamble for fun or profit, just gamble what we afford to lose.
Gambling for fun is just to think you can lose your money but that does not mean that their loses does not matter to them anymore, they still do care of their loses but they are just good in accepting the loses, and a gambler who do it for fun is also a budget gambler where he only spend what he can afford to lose.
7487  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: what is definition gambling in your mind? on: December 27, 2016, 12:08:11 PM
It's also called betting with a result in either a gain or total loss of wager, the money or asset. Some experts also considers some type it is investment particularly the stock market and real estate investments a quasi-gambling activities that can be used as opportunities to gamble. Gambling is also a combination of excitement and level of involvement.
I will be very happy if I will become an expert in gambling, I guess of the total population of gamblers in the world it is only less than 1% are the expert of gambling and they can make a living in gambling which every gambler who aim for profit is wishing. This is a hard venture if investment is the basis so I would say it is totally an entertainment just to invite myself to play for fun.

someday you will be one of 1% population of expert in gambling just think positive and always play . Well if you are playing for profits then I dont know if you can achieve those but if play with passion, dedication and hardwork by the end of the game you will gain more and earn more. Just play and play .
It's going to be a long wait and you will be putting your money at risk while doing it, to be successful in gambling, you need to sacrifice your job and your business maybe because you have shift your interest to gambling and you can consider it as your new job or business. Me, I do not really think I'll ever belong to the 1% but I still do not lose my hope as anything is possible in this world.
7488  Economy / Economics / Re: If bitcoin price is $10.000, will fiat be worthless? on: December 27, 2016, 12:02:39 PM
No. That would be kinda stupid to say so. Even if it reached the price of 1 000 000$ per bitcoin, why would it be worthless ? There will always be central banks, like there will always be fiat money, because bitcoin is not suited to the will of the finance world. You can't manipulate it, you can't increase the supply... This is a deflationary currency, and by this uniqueness, it can't overthrown the fiat money.
i even think that bitcoin the only thing can be worthless in the future ,
people are too optimistic and make a speculation like this ,
i don't think this scenario can heppened not now or later ,
bitcoin are a strange stuff while fiat have been established for hundred years.
Being positive is good but not to the point that we are not being realistic anymore, the price of bitcoin solely depend on fiat so without fiat it is worthless. We are a community who are a users of bitcoin but as a member of this community we still value fiat over bitcoin as we see it is risky to rely on one currency only that is not even controlled by the government.
7489  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2016/17 NBA Season on: December 27, 2016, 11:52:13 AM
Memphis somehow win against big teams and struggle against the small ones

Really couldn't see such solid loss today against Orlando

What is wrong with them?

Probably tired? Or just isn't in game mode, it's a post-Christmas game so they're probably not at it too much.
i guess its just another bad luck for us mate i bet with them thinking that orlando is just easy for them to defeat now i realized why the odd is too good to be true 1.73 very nice only to find out that this bet will lose and its a blow out lose, got lucky with my second bet +7 for sixers only lose by 2 points against sac.
Sometimes that's the problem with us, we think a certain game is an easy bet and we do not do anymore capping games carefully, Orlando is not a good team offensively but with Ibaka, they were good defensively, they surely are another team this season and they have proven they can beat strong teams as well.

if I remember someone has observed that with the same team, if I can remember that is with pistons. No matter how good a team or strong it is, lose will be always there. Maybe yeah, just because its Christmas season and the new year is coming Memphis just wants to give a a very good gift to the whole team of Orlando.  Grin
In a world of gambling you cannot expect an easy win, we are just being played by the odds maker because they think that when the line is easy for the Memphis, we will easily bet on the Memphis to win. I mean, who are Orlando anyway, they maybe improving this season but they are not a playoffs caliber team.
7490  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where to Invest BTC? on: December 27, 2016, 11:03:17 AM
Bitcoin seems to be no different from stocks, oil and gold where supply and demand dictate price
They have the same features when it comes to supply and demand but bitcoin is an online asset which is not physically touch unlike the asset you have mentioned, what I like with bitcoin is that people can easily invest and when it is more popular we can get more investors and users which will eventually affect to the increase of value of bitcoin.
7491  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcoin Gambling Investments on: December 27, 2016, 10:53:54 AM
A little bit late this week but it is the festive season Smiley

We have now made over 1 Bitcoin in profit in less than 5 months from our Bitcoin Gambling Investment. Or our $3,000 US investment is now worth $5,528!

Nice! safedice is performing really good. usd wise profit is almost double(sooner or later it will be) lol.
 have you considered investing in bitdice?
What a wise decision. If I knew that they would be very profitable, I would join them from the beginning. Near 100% interest after 5 months. This is really really awesome
Congrats mate, you made it. Your investment method will imprese more people to think about investing on casino sites. Safe dice is really making a nice profit in recent days. If I have enough money then I am sure I will follow your steps, and I will make the investment. all the best for 2017.
Good journey my friend, that is like almost 100% profit for a short period of time, you surely have a very good Christmas and a New Year. I believe you will increase your investment for the year to come since you have already proven how profitable investing in an bitcoin online casino.
7492  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Dice Games Are So Much Fun on: December 27, 2016, 10:37:27 AM
Sports betting is also a good way to have fun to gamble your money and no doubt that the chance of winning there is even more higher. And that is an advantage for those people who are in their favorite game and for being an athlete. But you must wait for the game to be finished unlike in dice games it is an instant game, with instant result.

Agree unlike dice games it is decide on a matter of seconds if you win or yyou loose bbut the thing is if you are not lucky and you dont have enough strategy in dice games youll end up loosing in sportbetting if you know the team well then you have a high chances to win but it takes time . Im lucky in sportsbetting than dice games

I guess there is no truly strategy that we can apply in dice games because it is a total game of luck. And the game is totally being controlled by the house and always the favor is with them. However, many of us are getting addicted and sees it very fun no matter how much we lose in the long run as long we dice,that's making us happy.
Exactly, whatever you do you will not win in the long run in dice games. It is designed to take our money and to give us a little excitement, now if you are not enjoying dice games, you better stop doing it as you are not getting the value of your money.

If you really want to be more serious, choose a game that fits your interest and your skills that has no house edge at all.
7493  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the best source of bitcoin nowadays? on: December 27, 2016, 10:17:02 AM
i think trading is much more easiest way to get bitcoin because there is a lot of people are earning bitcoin in huge amount through bitcoin and trading has too much lower risk than other investment.
trade will need skills to be able to get a profit, so this will not be an easy method if you do not have the skills in trading, if you want to earn the easiest, is to faucet or PTC, everyone can do it

you are right trading isn't an easy method for us to easily get a profit, in that way the are chances that we can get a good and even huge profit but still it isn't that easy as we can think like what you have said we need to apply our skill in this business .
If you are a full member and more better, you can join any signature campaign and earn bitcoin. This is the best and 100% safe bitcoin earning method. Trading, gambling, investing all requires capital to make a profit, and it's not easy to make money from these methods.
It's safe but not really a decent source of income especially if you have a bigger family, you need to seek for a better job that can give you a better income and a constant one. However, if you do are not professional enough and you are just satisfied with a little earning you can make here, maybe you can still survive but have to exert more time and effort to be able to survive.
7494  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin make Banks disappear? on: December 27, 2016, 10:12:57 AM
I think Banks will not disappear
but maybe they will use Bitcoin.

Yes, in fact we are looking forward for this thing to happen.
But bank will not replaced by bitcoin because of its government's support and even there are many people who are truly using bank.


see government very anti with bitcoin. because bitcoin have decentralized nature and can not be controlled. I think it will be difficult for bitcoin to be accepted or adopted by the bank, saw the banks are owned by the government and with the permission of the government
Government will always want to have a transparent transaction for their people so they can spy on us but we cannot see what they are doing, I remembered in our country that some politicians proposed a freedom of information but until now the law was not pass, I believe if it was pass it will make us taxpayer comfortable but it clearly see that they just want to see what they are doing but hide theirs.
7495  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: do you can control your self when playing gambling? on: December 26, 2016, 10:36:59 AM
In the past when i was still new in gambling i play in a casino even i win i still play, I only stop when i don't have enough money to bet. But through the years of gambling i was able to learn to stop or should i say control myself in order to win or not to lose everything. Sometimes even if i am lucky as long as i have enough profit i call it a day. Thus, the result i am positive profit from gambling.
Having a control in gambling can be proven if you have the ability to stop when you are winning or you are losing, it is necessary to minimize your loses and to stop with a profit, stopping all the time at a lose is not a good sign of a positive gambling activities, with it you will be accumulating big loses and might be frustrated towards your journey in gambling.
7496  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling problem on: December 26, 2016, 10:29:37 AM
I see there is so many people trying hard to stop gambling their money because they've losing so much
If you not ready to lose your money, then don't even try to gamble!

So how about people that already try it? Or even already addicted and being bancrupt because of gambling, do you any advice or sugestion??
There is always a solution for everything, your life does not end by the moment you get addicted with gambling. It is our will to change that would help us to get out the mess we make, in the first place, we are not force to gamble and we know how risky gambling is, so it is just right to ensure that we will be able to take care of our finances by minimizing our loses and enjoying gambling at the same time.
Exactly right, it might be hard but soon enough you can find yourself no longer involved on it. So better not start gambling to those who were not into it yet. Its hard when addiction attacks. There's lot to lose doing it money, time and efforts.
As a smart person, we can always tell if such activity is good for us or not, we have to be futuristic also and it is the only way we can realize what will happen in the future if we continue doing things that are not bringing good benefit to us. Bear in mind that gambling is a very risky game, and in fact it has ruin the lives of the many also, therefore we have to be responsible enough if we do not want to have the same faith as them.

Bitcoin isn't dead so you have been proven wrong. Next time when you feel bitcoin is going to die "for sure" just leave the bitcoin community don't need you. Peace.

Surely it is not as we can see the price of bitcoin is now getting higher as expected by many of us. Those people who are saying that btc is dead, they are now the ones who are going to dig their own hole for them to buried there. I am waiting those peple who are saying that will show up here and prove that it is dead.
They are dead and not bitcoin, if they can see how the price of bitcoin currently perform they will be amaze and they will realize that they have a wrong meaning in the definition of dead, lol.

It will be a long journey and bitcoin will always be here to amaze us and we have to trust it even when crisis strikes.
7498  Economy / Economics / Re: Why have Bitcoin instead of cash? on: December 26, 2016, 10:10:50 AM
yeah trading is very much profitable nowadays and a lot of people are earning bitcoin in huge amount through trading and people really like to online jobs and they are earning their profit through trading and other activity .
Trading is profitable but not for all of the traders, I believe with a huge number of traders only few of them are profitable, it is a risky venture that requires deep knowledge and proper time management to succeed and most of us cannot do that as we have different focus in life. I think we are too comfortable with having a job since it has no risk than risking our money to make money in trading.
7499  Economy / Economics / Re: Sell Everything? on: December 26, 2016, 09:58:29 AM
Selling everything is not good at all and I think it can really let you lose a lot of profit when you do this right now.
you are right that selling bitcoin is not good for right now because bitcoin price going to rise too much faster and maximum people holding their bitcoin for the future and i am sure they will be get a big profit from bitcoin in the next year when bitcoin more rise its price .
yeah you are right that selling bitcoin is not good for now because bitcoin increasing its price too much faster so its good hold your bitcoin and people getting profit in big amount through holding their bitcoin.
Sell a portion of your holding when you see you can make profit, we always seek for a better income but it is not good anymore if we are too greedy as we might end up losing everything we have. I know the price will increase but we cannot be sure if this will increase a bigger amount as we expected, we have to be realistic somehow and always take your ROI before experimenting to have more profit.
7500  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: how strong is bitcoin really? on: December 26, 2016, 09:51:53 AM
Bitcoin is unstoppable.
That's why til now its alive even though not everybody supports it.
The support that we are giving to bitcoin is already enough to survive in the long run but we are not satisfied with it, we want to see more supporters so we can push the value to increase, and when that happens we can also benefit as an investors.
