It is still worth to use bitcoins because the value has increased and satoshi's will still be on the same track. Before you are thinking that 0.005 BTC is still a cheap amount of Bitcoin but right now the price is high and you may think it's gold and you can now reduce it to lower amount. But if you don't want to do this, you can just simply use alt coins.
Yes before I use to bet min 0.005 BTC actually I will place 0.01 BTC when ever I play sports betting. Becasue I will get a decent return. But what you said it is right it becomes too costly if I convert 0.005 BTC to our fiat currency it is approximately one day salary for two years experienced IT people.  Now tell me is it fine to play gambling with Bitcoin?

BIP91 activated and lock-in, we just need waiting result from this Soft Fork for decivision buy or sell Bitcoin in next time. In my opinion, maybe have some bad news about BIP91 lock-in failure when processing and make the price of Bitcoin crash in short time, but it will recovery soon
This question I also have maybe within this weekend we will get one more price crash in Bitcoin. This is a just expectation it may fall or may not be. But after that, the price must increase. The exchanges are buying our coins $150 less price to compare present price I don't know why and what their intention.

Hmm. Nearly a year since thread started. I wonder how much btc this guy earned now. That would depend on his investment volume of course. I started to focus on crypto trading just nearly the same date this thread started and I can say I gained at least x30. I am still far from earning 100 btc. But still hopeful and I can make it maybe next year.  Grin
It's great man you have x30 bitcoins? how did you make these bitcoins? any good strategy you used or in trading you've done or else you bought coins before only and that coin worth is now x30. And one more thing you are telling you can make 100 BTC in net year hands off for your confidence. I Don't even make 4 bitcoins in 1 year of time. And don't know when I will reach this goal. 
784  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin or Ethereum ?, on: July 23, 2017, 02:08:25 PM
My take is that Ether will be the most used coin, look at the persistent volumes lately.
Yes, Bitcoin was first and it was a pioneer, while ETH is the next generation coin.
Ethereum is a token creating platform and can be used as a smart contract and it is not a next generation coin. Tongue Bitcoin is and will be the lead coin no matter what and no other coin will be out classing bitcoin,to make Ether the most used coin,it has to be a scalable solution,lets see what their plans are and lets see when they will be switching the consensus protocol of Ethereum to POS.
Yes Bitcoin is the master for all altcoins. ETH is a fast growing coin, but it will not beat bitcoins in the race. But now investors put more confidence on ETH, and they are making that popular in the digital market. One day it will become another Bitcoin but it will take some time. Maybe in future, the litecoin will give competition to ETH.
785  Economy / Economics / Re: How Bitcoin will reach $2000 to $10000 in 2017 and $100k by 2026. on: July 23, 2017, 02:02:33 PM
10000 dollars in 2017 is very impossible for me because thats price is very big. Yes bitcoin will reaxg 10k dollars but it will takes few years I think before they reach that. And thats very impossible 100k reach in the year of 2026 because  thats prife is very big and for surr many people they did not believe that. But everything is possible to happen. More bitcoin more money so hold your bitcoins.
Yes this is over expectation. in 2017 max to max the price will reach $3500, but it will not reach $10000. But you can save your bitcoins for a long time then there is a possibility the price will reach your goal. I think to achieve this amount we have to wait min 5 years. I will try to save my bitcoins to make a good profit in future.
786  Economy / Economics / Re: When to buy and sell bitcoin on: July 23, 2017, 01:46:43 PM
When is the best time to buy bitcoin and when do you think is the best time to sell?
I think its a great time to buy now but when is a good time to sell (if you have any idea please share)

The best answer to this for me is, before was the best time to buy bitcoins, like back on 2011 where bitcoins are not that popular. If you buy bitcoins that time tou are probably rich today because the value are way too far today. But I know it is not too late for everything, we can still buy bitcoins and make money out of it.

In selling, as simply as this, sell bitcoins if you needed to, do not sell it for the reason that you're panicking and you're afraid that it might crash.
The Past is passed I thin no one guesses that Bitcoin price will increase this much in 2017 that is why many people, not bought this coins. But who ever invested that time they are really become rich. Now I think it is very difficult to buy bitcoins because the price is too high and many people will not afford that money. If you are looking for the long time investment, then you can buy.
787  Other / Off-topic / Re: Young people should go all in on bitcoin on: July 23, 2017, 01:33:38 PM
Going all in may not be a good idea, especially for them. Few are those prepared psychologically for the high volatility in the market for Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general.

Why it is not a good idea? Crypto's are the future in currency and digital transactions. And if you don't want to take the risk of volatility of bitcoin then don't invest with it.  I think it's a good idea if young people are going to go all in with bitcoin because they are the future of this world. Once they have bitcoins it's going to be their future assets.
I agree. The volatility is not an important issue for the people who invest their money for long term. This idea is for the future of young people. and In my opinion, this is a very very good idea. The profit potential of bitcoin for the long term is indisputable. Small amount of bitcoin investment for young people can make them rich in the future.
If they start in their young age they can earn big in the future ,though they should set their priorities ,maybe putting their extra money on it can be the start then studying it little by little can be a help too.
I included joining bitcoin as a teenager, I joined bitcoin in 2013 when I was 17 years old. And for the past 4 years I've gotten a lot of things from bitcoin and it's changed a lot in my life you know. Even bitcoin can pay my tuition to college, teenagers should try it

Great ,Bitcoin is truly a big help for the young people nowadays to support not only in school but also might do in the future if you save some amount of it.But going all isn't a good way and not advisable by any investor tycoon even they are rich they do not make that move.
All in for youth actually this great move because according to my knowledge Bitcoin will not die soon. It will live the number of years in and in future the price of the bitcoin will double and triple but not fall. So young people must go all in and make some money. Save that coins for future use it definitely helps them.
788  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What Altcoins do you want to hold in 2017? on: July 20, 2017, 02:03:51 PM
I think I would try to hold on some Ethereum,Waves and MGO,
I think this coins have some great potential to pump up so I would try to hold them.
I agree with you. Ethereum, Waves and MGO will definitely have a very high price in the future. I think I should buy now because the price of 3 cryptocurrency is very cheap. I hope by the end of 2018 it will be a good price so that we can sell it and make a profit
Yes now the prices for these 3 coins are very low before the ETH price was bit high but it is reasonable to buy, and other 2 coins are low price. With this, if you possibly buy some monero and zcash these coins also very promising coins and after 1 or 2 years it will give good profit. I had eth and monero, and I am planning to buy some other coins.
But I hear some news in next time Monero will have big crash as history, maybe crash to 1 digit USD. The reason make that is alphabay in present offline down Monero in their system and some user panic with that. I still holding Monero from $12 but still scared with this news because I not take profit in long time Embarrassed
Did you check price today now it's $40. So if you scared to hold Monero, then this is the best price you can sell it and buy some other promising coins. I do have some confidence in this currency let's wait for some time. I will not do any panic selling now because if it's stuck on the network, it's a big loss, I will miss the future profit.
789  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is it over? on: July 20, 2017, 01:58:33 PM
no one can know what will happen tomorrow, but i think the dump is not over, there will be a deep fall before 1 August, and its that time to positioned
This is 100% right no one can predict what will happen tomorrow. But now the Bitcoin price is increasing as well as all altcoins price also following Bitcoin. But there is assurance that this price will keep on moving up. It may fall down anytime. Becasue of August 1st. If you do any transaction now, there is a possibility that your coins will be struck in the network so be careful.
790  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investing in ICO, still promising? on: July 20, 2017, 01:54:55 PM
The fall is over I guess, most of altcoins has now started to climb back to the price where they used to.
Bitcoin has recovered and it's expecting altcoins will follow, bloody market is already over and it's a green market is what we can see now.
The fall is not yet over, in fact it might just be starting. Even if altcoins are starting to climb back to the price where they used to be like btc, there will be uncertainty until august 1 is finished so for now I will watch market movements hoping that I made the right decision. There's a high change of alta tanking again if BTC goes down in price again.
The bitcoin price is increasing it crossed $2500, and I think today night it will reach up to $2700. With this hike, all altcoins price also increasing the ETh price is $230. Maybe the dump is over now, and we only see green numbers in market cap.

2nd semi final match started, India women won the toss and opt to bat first. And the match reduced to 42 overs both side due to rain. India women made 55 runs and lost 2 wickets 15 overs completed. Mithali Raj India team captain and this season highest scorer are playing she made 6 centuries in this tournament I am expecting good fight b/w both teams.
792  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Social aspect of gambling - do you ever gamble with a friend? on: July 20, 2017, 01:43:45 PM
I gamble for fun so i usually play with my friends. I also make some friends whenever I gamble with strangers. So, gambling can also be a way to socialize.

playing gambling with our friends is also fun while we can talk each other and play together. sometimes i am playing with my friend too but unfortunately, my friend is better for playing gambling than me. still its another experience for us if we can played with our friend so we can share our experience with them.

Well for casual.gamblers like us, yeah it really is a lot better to gamble with friends without any pressure and high expectations. Gamble for just the fun of it. No stress so losing won't hurt that much and winning would be lot times more fulfilling.

All people bet with their friends in different things. Especially the atmosphere for betting is high on sports bets when there are popular tournaments.
People will bet for their favorite team to win over others. (or vice versa)
If only I could bet with my friends all the time then I will surely do it, at least I do not have to pay for the juice in sports betting or accept the house edge like playing in the casinos. Unfortunately, we cannot have it all the time, the last time I played with my friends was when we have a reunion in college and we played cards particularly poker and it was fun although I did not really win the game.

Also, there are times I gamble with my office mates when there is a big event in the NBA like playoffs time or NBA Finals, and it's more fun than gambling online.
This kind of gambling I also did many times when I was in the college hostel. But I did not play card games because I was not known that game very well and tried to learn but not possible I lost few times and I stopped to play cards game. I did many sports betting with my friends it was so fun and I won many times. But I realise one thing we don't play any money involved game with our friends because we will lose our friendship.
793  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: July 20, 2017, 01:36:21 PM
I don't really think so. It is ok to gamble as long as you do it wisely and don't lose lots of money...

We can only not lose alot of money if we gamle with small amount for fun. If we gamble for profit then we must use high amount and that means we should be ready to lose alot of money. I will not gamble for profit however alot of people will gamble for profit so it is wrong for them to do that unless they can afford it
Well, i don't believe that you are playing gambling and spend money even you can afford it to have fun .No people will go into a gambling alone just for it . Let's accept and be honest to ourselves what we are trying to make .Its our fault in the last and not in gambling.
I'm also not sure if people who gamble for fun just want it and do not expect anything else. They expect to make a profit too. Because seeking profit is an inseparable goal of gambling.
You do gamble to win your bet, not to lose your bet. So obviously people do gambling to win money. The player's mentality is not same. You play for fun you will look both enjoyment and money if any of one you will get you satisfy. But you play for money you only happy when you win your bet.
794  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What to do with the people who don't like Bitcoin? on: July 19, 2017, 02:50:32 PM
Most people I know of are neutral on this subject or they're hating because they didn't buy it when it was low. You can ignore them or educate them with counter argument or better yet, gift them small amount of bitcoin so they can start caring.

You would think that they would start caring about bitcoin or that they would start giving out their hearts to bitcoin but they will not. With that action, it just shows how desperate you are to persuade them. You are literally giving them money and that's something a desperate guy would do. That's what they will think of you. It will seem lame to most people and I don't think it's a good way to convince people to use bitcoins.

They will think that it's funny that you're giving out "samples" of the product that you are advertising. This is so relatable to an MLM scam so it's really hard to counter their arguments. Personally, I wouldn't waste my time on them.
do you seriously gift your bitcoins to educate others? you are great mate, and we are here fighting to make bitcoins and struggling lot how to make bitcoins. in that you are saying we have to give them some free bitcoins and make them to bring this Bitcoin world. I don't want if they don't like I won't force because it's not a loss for me its loss for them.
795  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Wallet recommendations for Aug 1 - segwit / bip148 on: July 19, 2017, 02:43:35 PM
Maybe a mobile wallet such as Mycellium which is easy enough to install and then you get your private keys and you can direct your mining to your own wallet, Coinbase along with most other online wallets own your private keys which in turn means they own your bitcoin in a similar way that banks do.
Yes mobile wallets are good but now I am getting emails from our local exchanges website they are telling to withdraw all our bitcoins. The reason is if anything changes in server and it affects to bitcoins they are not responsible. I also thinking where to shift my bitcoins can I buy altcoins or what don't know.
796  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What are your plans with your Bitcoin? on: July 19, 2017, 02:37:45 PM
I have no specific plans to use the bitcoins. Now for me it's like entertainment. It allows me to have extra income and I have all this income is use as a Deposit. Maybe someday I'll gather up a large sum and buy a house.
Wow you're planning to buy house are you planning to use your bitcoin in the future to buy a house? or a luxury car because there is one company who is now accepting bitcoin payment to buy an sports car and this is good news for those who willing to have an interest to use bitcoin. Im still holding some of my bitcoin for my self in the future too.
Which company is accepting Bitcoin? A sports car means it's too expensive right. Anyway, it's good news at least some people are started to accept Bitcoin. I also have many plans but don't have that much bitcoins with me. Previously it was easy to collect more bitcoins, but I was not sure the price would go high I convert it into fiat. Now I the price is high but collecting Bitcoin become difficult.
797  Other / Off-topic / Re: Would you give bitcoin as a wedding gift? on: July 19, 2017, 02:33:01 PM
No I wouldn't give bitcoin as a wedding gift, all bitcoin available to me is mine for long term investment strategies Grin
They can have stinking fiat Grin
Hahah funny lol, why would you need to give it on wedding gift. keep it with yourself and if you are interesting to giving bitcoin as a gift try to give another altcoins instead bitcoin. Because we know that bitcoin is a useful while altcoins are useless. So in my opinion introduce them a bitcoin what is bitcoin. But give them altcoin.
According to me, bitcoin is not a suitable gift for wedding couples. Ofcourse everyone needs money especially newly wedding couples to buy house things. But they will not keep it in their mind long time. The old people will gift money to couples. If your friend wants to remember your gift for a long time better buy something that he is looking to buy in future. If he or she is your best friend, then you may know what they want to buy. If you gift them what he/she is expecting no money will replace that thrill and enjoyment.

Tomorrow we have India vs Aus Women World Cup Semi Final match. It would be interesting to watch out how does India change their plan now to play against OZ. In league match India lost to OZ by 8 wicket. This time they would have to play to their best and strategies it differently to beat OZ and reach finals.
For me, Australia women team is favorite to win, they are too strong to beat India women team, it doesn't matter what strategy India will take, if Australia women will be able to perform following their capacity then India will not get any chance to get in the game.
Yes Austrailia women team have a good squad, and they have the capability to win this match, and also they will beat England in finals. But over confidence is dangerous did you see CT men final match b/w India vs Pakistan. Indian team over confidence made them lose the trophy. But tomorrow the best team will reach finals all the best for both teams.
799  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you would win a Jackpot what would you do with the money? on: July 19, 2017, 02:13:45 PM
If you would win a large amount suddenly, like a jackpot or a lottery, what would you do with the money? Especially if the money is coming to you suddenly, unexpected, and you were not prepared to win such large amount.

Let's say you would win something like 200 BTC or more,  which I have seen many gambling websites payout from time to time. What would you do with it?

1) You would gamble with it again, trying to multiply the bet, to get even more money
2) You would withdraw the money, and invest it into some financial investment: maybe some cryptocurrency investment, maybe some fiat investment
3) You would spend it:
    A) Buy a car or a house
    B) Spend it on women or wife
    C) Spend it on your kids
4) Donate it to charity
5) Start up a business
6) Hold it in Bitcoin
7) Other


If I would win a large amount, I will invest in nitrogensport,my favorite casino online and what I like about them is  their good services with the customers. Secondly, I'm going to put my own business to double up my profit. Third is I am going to build a house for my family. And also  I want to travel so I can see the beauty of the world with my family.
You have many dreams dude, best of luck. I don't have many dreams if I win big jackpot 1st I will settle in my life. That means to lead luxurious life what all things I want I will buy. The remaining amount I also have a dream to go for a world tour. Still, money left in my bank I will just put fixed deposit and enjoy my life.

Us Open 2017  (August 28 - September 10) Prize Money Rises to $50.4M! This is the tournament with the richest prize pool in history

How much will players earn?

Winner             $3,7M
Finalist             $1,8M
Semi-finalist     $920K
Quarter-finalist $470k
Fourth-round    $253k
Third-round      $144k
Second-round    $86K
First-round        $50k


Tennis game is also becoming the richest game in the world. As per now, i think football is the richest game I am not sure or else base ball these players are getting millions of salary per month. Now tennis players also started to earn huge money from big tournament. Who will become the 3.7M dollar baby any guess?

Wow this is what tennis players need . There are tons of players out there who spend all their time on tennis:) I am not talking about big guns and yeah you are right Soccer is the richest game right now in the world and if you take individual game then Tennis is the first.
Wow that's indeed a lot of money to be won by playing tennis, Even the money at the first round is really impressive,  I wonder how much money Serena Williams have won throughout the years.I am betting for Roger Federer to once again scoop the top  prize with major tennis players currently out injured.
Yes it is huge money. If you play one game, you will get $50k. Which company will give us this much salary? That is why now every youth wants to become sports player. And I think Boxing is the highest individual pay game. The boxers will get more than millions of money from just game one.
