I would agree with this, its challenging enough being born in the UK and living here, i cant imagine moving here.  Yes it is one of the safer countries to live but i wouldnt choose it if i wasnt born here. 

Try a couple of internships in the Central African Republic and then report back.

Meh, knew i'd get that.  I never said anything about picking any unsafe or unstable country.  Are you saying you'd pick UK if you could choose to be born/live anywhere?

Mannn.. I sold over 15000 LTC at 1$ when it flew from the low $0.40 range.
Dont cry over spilled milk.

Wow ! And I sold 800 BTC for only 8000 Perfect Money in 2012 for depositing my Liteforex account.

The lesson here is buy and hold for as long as possible. I held 5000 and 7000 LTC at a couple points in time before it went to $50, so sick i could have had over $250k.

I would recommend you to complete most of your formal education from your city, and try in university here for higher studies. If you study well and are talented, you can get an admission through scholarship. Your education will be discounted and there might even be hostel facility, which makes things cheaper for you. As you study here, try getting opportunities for work, there always are opportunities for work. And then work hard, save, get a job, marry someone from that country and stabilize your life there Wink

for the marrying thing I guess it's the easiest to get visa and citizenship but that would be hard because I'am a muslim and there isn't that much of muslims in UK or USA to get married with .

Living in UK/U.S can be hard, why don't you consider some other place for living too?

I would agree with this, its challenging enough being born in the UK and living here, i cant imagine moving here.  Yes it is one of the safer countries to live but i wouldnt choose it if i wasnt born here.

So whats the point using a blockchain without decentralisation/mining  Huh  Why not use a simple encrypted database lol.   

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery as they say.  If they make fake bitcoin maybe people will buy into it they hope.

Litecoin had a great advantage as the second big crypto currency but it has not attracted a lot of development or infrastructure.

Litecoin is not the no.2 crypto-currency anymore, in terms of market capitalization. Right now, Ripple is in the no.2 position, followed by Litecoin at no.3. The market cap of the major crypto-coins are as follows:

1. Bitcoin: $ 3,801,462,349
2. Ripple: $ 304,714,223
3. Litecoin: $ 209,122,583
4. Doge: $ 18,752,522
5. Dash: $ 16,431,987    

Ripple isn't a true crypto-currency, i dont think we can read much into it.  Looking at the trading volume, litecoin is miles ahead of ripple.
ripple !!!  Tongue isn't a centralized crypto currency  Huh

Of course it is, i heard that had to pay coinmarketcap to even be listed on there.  They can make more ripples anytime, its not a store of value.

Here basically you pay first like 2700$ , then give you the house and it's yours . then you start paying like 80$ or something for each month for the next 20 years or something like that . I personally found it good and fair enough . not complaining Grin (from Government of course)

Also I thought you was speaking about USA on the first place though that's why I said New york & Los Angelus , I will keep this thread open in case you guys want to give me more informations , appreciate the help . In the mean time i WILL be making more money for the next couple of years maybe and do more research about it .

I've heard living in LA can be very expensive, i cant imagine new york being much different.  All these fancy places cost alot.

Here in UK you cant buy 1 brick of a house for $2700 lol

You think a bank developing its own cryptocurrency will have any impact on Bitcoin?

https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/citibank-developing-cryptocurrency/

What do you think?

Its probably bullish for bitcoin, anything that brings in more people to digital currency is good.  We just have to make sure bitcoin is a better alternative to whatever centralized crap they put out.

Also when you say "With $5k You will eat well and have money to do what you need to do for 6 months" , I'am really thinking what's the definition of "eating well" does it mean buying stuff and cook my self or fast food is good to go ? Grin isn't faster food expensive then normal food on your country ?

an a good place to live = split rent between roomates (how much would that cost in different cities and towns (just estimated) ) ? correct ? I'am sorry if I'am wasting your time etc .. but in our country only few people rent , most of us buy


Eating well is home cooked meals mostly with occasional eat out.  You'll never been able to eat as good eating out regularly vs making some food at home imo.   I just moved house and during the move i ate out 7 nights in a row, i felt like shite after.  Felt so much better when had a few home cooked meals.

Fast food is just junk, only eat it occasionally or not at all if you want to be healthy.

You wont be able to buy anywhere to live in UK unless you are rich as fuck lol.  Renting costs in somehwere like london are insane stay clear of london unless you have a career there.  All the costs of living in the other major UK cities/towns are somewhat similar. 

If you want to live in a remote place then it can be cheaper but you have little access to work.
892  Economy / Invites & Accounts / Re: WTB Legit ebay account on: July 08, 2015, 10:03:48 AM
i'm looking for an ebay account, not hacked, i not use for scam or something, i want to sell some products on ebay and my account have limit 500usd 10 listing /month
i also can return account back in one month
account should be from US
i wont change the password while i use it to not rise the flag


Why not just create a new account or if they can track that use a friend/family member.  I run 2 accounts, i like to keep 1 account with high quality service with fast postage.  The other takes 3-4 days postage and will occasionally get bad feedback because of this.

Problem for him is that there is no way to spend a lot of his cash as he is being watched constantly... Say a new car would probably be seized..

Well he didnt hide the fact he was living in a high end appartment too much when he posted all the pictures a while back.  Generally i dont think he is the type of guy to flash the cash.  He will just be a geek businessman or in jail maybe who knows.
894  Economy / Economics / Re: How much Bitcoin to move to the UK/USA ? on: July 08, 2015, 09:23:12 AM

However for what comes to USA , yes It may be a lot harder for me . also for what comes to the job , I'am not asking much beside I know a lot of people with no degree at all and doing some decent jobs with like 3k / month  , also how bad is it to work in McDonald or something like that ? Shocked
We don't even have such fast foods here so not sure what is the payment and how hard is it to get such a job .

It would make it so much easier if you could find a way to make a wage online before moving.  That way you haven't got to fuck about with trying to get some bullshit job.  Its not easy to find ways to make a living online but its possible, i've made a living online firstly via online poker (dont do that) and after that i've made a living via ebay.   If i were younger and starting out there seems to be a ton of money in coding, i'd do that.

I knew many people who moved to UK from abroad where i used to live, i actually used to hang out with a bunch of them.  All worked in factories and warehouses etc, they worked pretty hard for not that much money i guess.  

I dont know the specific laws on algerians moving to UK so cant help with the legal side of things but if that all works out.... ideally you want 6 months living expenses, get a room in a house share with internet, you'll be good to go.  I'd say to be comfortable you'd want $5000 or £3000 gbp.


That's exactly what I want to do, and that's why I'am making money and keep making money right now and yes it's online , I'am just a high school teenger as I said however I'am doing good for what comes to money . and I'am really good at saving it instead of spending it at each thing I like .

For what comes to the 5000$ mentioned , is that enough to live on a room with internet for 6 months ? Shocked Also do you know how hard is to find a decent job as I said nothing big like McDonald or any other famous fast food that pays well .

$5000 is a good amount to cover you for 6 months living in a decent house share, you can do it for cheaper if you have friends, i knew a guy who came with nothing and stayed with friends until he got a job.  

With $5k You will eat well and have money to do what you need to do for 6 months.  Dont go for the very cheapest living standards, try to find a nice quiet place that looks nice in a nice area, with nice people living in it, its worth the extra 20% etc you'd pay for something like that.  If you try and find the very cheapest living accomodation you'll end up living with idiots playing loud music, drinking at all hours, generally pissing you off left right and centre.

Its very easy to get a basic job like factory/warehouse/fast food/data entry job if you a physically able, you can just sign up with employment agencies who can probably have you in a job in under 1-2 weeks.   Every town/city has several employment agencies, you have 1 interview with them and they deal with all the rest as they have contracts with employers.
895  Economy / Economics / Re: Dodging taxes helps pump bitcoin price? on: July 08, 2015, 08:53:26 AM

So when people move from bitcoin to fiat in an exchange and transfer to their banks they likely have to pay capital gains tax since there is nowhere to hide at that point.  Does it make it more likely they just buy back into bitcoin again in one of the dodgy exchanges which the tax man would have a hard time policing?  

Why would you sell your bitcoins first and then buy back on a 'dodgy' exchange?
You can move your bitcoins to the another exchange immediately.
You might have to move via a personal wallet in-between, but that's about it.

To be clear when i say "dodgy" exchange i guess i mean dodgy in the eyes of the mainstream.  I dont see the tax man getting access to a site like bitfinex or BTC-e to check your earnings ever.

Hello, people! Grin

Do you remember price of Bitcoin when you heard about BTC at first in your life?

When i first read about it i think it was like $10 but i just ignored it as some fake computer money BS.  Then about a year after it was @$50-$60 and climing that is when i read about it properly and was blown away.
899  Economy / Economics / Re: How many coins would a digi. currency need when it is used worldwide by eveyone? on: July 08, 2015, 08:16:03 AM
I like the idea of bitcoin, but buying an egg for 0,00000000000000000000000000000001 in 50 years is kind of stupid. In my opinion a digital currency needs the capability to be useable by everyone world wide and it should be possible to use one coin to buy something small like an egg. How many coins would a digital currency need if every person on this planet would use it?

Is there already a digital currency that could accomplish this?

You wouldn't need to put a price label on the eggs of 000000000000000000.1 etc, you could either name lesser denominations below satoshi or i should imagine all product would be coded for price so you just scan over them.

Extended 1.5 month AFTER the deadline was elapsed? It was more like a target Date if you ask me...
Not very professional for a trustee/lawyer to extend it.

Sounds like they are just trying to drag the thing out to take more out, they will drag out each stage and probably see payments end of next year i bet.  Oh well at least its another way to store some bitcoin.
