81  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is there a quiet redistribution / accumulation going on? on: July 28, 2015, 08:39:32 PM
Do you think in the past year and a half (since ATH), has there been a quiet redistribution of bitcoins?

Redistribution? Not really. I can't see a major flow of bitcoin from large holders to small users. Early miners who holds thousands of bitcoins aren't really selling. May be a few to buy things and gamble a bit. Some have sold all their holdings and exited the scene, I believe they are a minority. New bitcoin users are buying and gathering small amounts, that's tiny amounts compared to the large holders. Large holders still have lots and newbies still have too few.

Do you think major players are quietly accumulating right now?

I would think so. I base my optimism on the diversity of investors from the bitcoin auctions. Major players are certainly interested and there are MANY of them. Most of these investors aren't buying from exchanges, it's too slow. There are 3600 bitcoin minted everyday by miners. I believe a large portion of these minted coins are sold to these low-profile players.

the distribution of the base of the people who are accumulating Bitcoin is becoming much much broader
This is Bulls and a diversified base of new buyers coming in.

It is not possible that one country adopt bitcoin as its currency. With bitcoin it is not possible to do monetary policies and without that politics it is very hard to govern. ...

It is possible. There are many countries that do not have their own currency.

No country will adopt bitcoin as its country, since its government cant control it and cant get something useful for them. The government is just a group of politician, not bitcoin enthusiast.

but what if , it is adopted from the citizens of that country, and they say basically fuck you government? surely their GOV can not stop them if they decide to move in this way

it's not like we are living in dictatorial regime

In theory, sure. A country can generally implement whatever internal economic policy they want, including specifying the official currency or even two currencies.

Loaning is not a good option IMHO. default rates are pretty high and you could lose money, Furthermore the volume is very small to make a good profit
84  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's your biggest problem with Bitcoin on: July 28, 2015, 08:14:12 PM
getting scammed by ponzi - while i was supposed to have my first payout and they collapsed. in fact, i shouldn't invest unless they have enough data in which proves they aren't scamming.
This is not specific to Bitcoin. It ultimately boils down to "How much should attempt Bitcoin to protect  people from themselves?".
85  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Citicoin on: July 28, 2015, 07:56:56 PM
I think all financial institutions are going to need a cryptocurrency in order to eliminate inefficiency. They'll need it to just to be able to compete in the market.
86  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is there a quiet redistribution / accumulation going on? on: July 27, 2015, 07:18:21 PM
I am thinking this is the beginning of accumulation leading into the next halving...  as the supply runs dry we will begin to see the price become temporarily parabolic again.
87  Economy / Speculation / Re: I am short... on: July 27, 2015, 07:07:24 PM
Since 285 and want to commit suicide now.
which number should i call?

Please help me and all other bears!!!!!
if you want to follow a day-trading type pattern, you can try and ride the high and lows for quick profit; however, this is obviously risky.
88  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life? on: July 27, 2015, 07:01:51 PM
Gambling btc in my opinion should be something you do on the side for fun. It shouldn't be something you should try to invest in multiple times to make profit.
89  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How greedy you are ? on: July 27, 2015, 06:57:50 PM
I Won about a 5 on PrimeDice myself. Hardest part is to know when you should stop.
Went back  later and lost everything so yea rip
90  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much BTC have you gambled? (anonymous on: July 27, 2015, 05:14:13 PM
the total sum of losing is much more than 10 btc. I have consistently losing small amounts in gambling Dice and Sportsbook .but I'm stopping to play
91  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is wealth boring? on: July 27, 2015, 05:12:25 PM
I think people are boring, wealth brings options that's all.

What many people do when they have money is do the same thing as before just a more expensive version of it....money is wasted on people like that and they often find themselves just as unhappy with it.

This is the best answer. Some people is just unhappy no matter how much money they have.

If you are rich and you are bored, then is your fault, not money's.
yes depends on how you handle wealth
Rich people also commit suicide a lot.
Your happiness depends on your attitude towards it.

93  Economy / Speculation / Re: 100 bitcoins. Will I be a millionaire by 2020? on: July 25, 2015, 11:21:35 PM
If you're willing to risk it considering your can sustain yourself through other sources of income , it may be worthwhile, but as someone already mentioned, by 2020, you can either become a millionaire
94  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Warren Buffet saids: “Stay Away From Bitcoin” on: July 25, 2015, 11:16:50 PM
Warren Buffet doesn't get technology nor does he invest in technology companies. I would be very surprised if he even handles his own emails.

The prophecy will soon reveal itself, and we shall all take our rightful places on the moon Verily To the moon!!! , it is written
96  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Mainstream Adoption on: July 25, 2015, 11:07:44 PM
education and understanding (i.e. people don't care, they are too busy for this). But really it is still too complex for most people to bother with Bitcon
97  Economy / Speculation / Re: Panic sellers and non-holders beware: This could be you in the future. on: July 25, 2015, 11:03:25 PM
I have no plans to sell anytime soon, I'm fairly certain this is only the beginning. Sure there will be ups and downs but in the end I would be very surprised if the price didn't reach several thousand USD per coin or more.
98  Economy / Economics / Re: Price stability on: July 25, 2015, 10:56:41 PM
Some people might argue however that price stability is a prerequisite for a flourishing economy. I'm not saying that I agree with that position, but it's something to consider.
99  Economy / Speculation / Re: How many bitcoins do I need to retire in 20 years? on: July 25, 2015, 10:54:19 PM
This is interesting. If you can get a lot of income on BTC you can retire early and enjoy life early.
Just invest what do you think you can afford to lose since nothing is sure in the future.

SJW is usually used for people who have a very extreme view on ideology.Many of them are authoritarian in in their mindset. They believe that there is only one right way, and it's theirs
