It's really shame what Chavez did with Venezuela. Venezuela is so rich country, specially with oil and all people could benefit from it there. Instead, Chavez started socialist experiment and destroyed whole country. Now, people don't have food, security, heath service, nothing. I really feel sorry because of them.

Today world is becoming battle ground for all the countries .....Everyone is trying to destablize others and to gain regional dominance they are using terriost groups for their cause
I think that you are to pessimistic person and believe media to much. World is not ideal, perfect place to live, it's true but also is not hell or dark place for living. World is more like gray place, with god and bad things mixed. You have many world organizations and politicians which helping people, as much as they can (for example Merkel in Germany accepted a million refuges from Middle East) but, of course, you have people as Assad, president of Syria, who attacking his own people in Syria and don't want to give them peace and freedom. Terrorists are usually independent and have their own agenda, like ISIS. In fact, all the world united against ISIS now.

Nothing. I will still use Bitcoin, as before. I don't think that my local government have resources and time to check Internet activities of all citizens. Of course, I will not be able any more to exchange my BTC funds to my local currency and cash out to my bank account or in some other, official way, but I will find the way. They will not stop me to use Bitcoin, no way

For me, Bitcoin is not only about the money or investment but more way of life. Bitcoin is true revolution which will change the world and help people to achieve their vision and become financially free, and get rid from banks. I don't want that anybody control my finances, government, tax agency, banks etc. Bitcoin is solution for it so yes, even if I become a USD multi millionaire, I will still use Bitcoin.

In my opinion, we don't need more religion because, in fact, all religion talking about the same God and about the same common idea: God is creator, people failed and separated from God, Messiahs, salvation, creation of new world, love, peace, harmony etc. So, we need unification of today's religions, and they should work together to achieve world peace, harmony, restoration of moral values etc. All religion share many common points so religious leaders should really repent and start to work together in order to restore and rebuild this world. They can influence people much more than politicians. It will be good also to create religious council at UN, so that religious leaders can work for world pace together with politicians. So, I don't believe in the religion of the future but I believe in one, united religious council in the future.

Yes, but mostly people don't understand what I'm talking about or they just don't care. It seems people have attitude: ''show me the money'' and after that they will start to believe that Bitcoin is something special and unique. In fact, most of this people are even afraid to use their credit cards and buy something online, or afraid to change their life. It's sad but it seems Bitcoin is not for everybody.

I think that Bitcoin really gives us a lot. I like sense of financial freedom here, anonymity, like to be part of some vision and idea which can change the world. Bitcoin really started real revolution and, what is the most important, is decentralized, nobody control Bitcoin. So, we are all equal here, no differences among us. Also, Bitcoin is very safe to use and if I have to buy something online, I prefer to use Bitcoin, if possible.

Well, I can't answer for others, only for myself ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I use my Bitcoin funds partly to cover some of my expenses as my new online business, to buy some digital staff etc. BTC funds I don't need now, i just keep in my bTC wallet and waiting for price increase. In long term, I'm sure that BTC will be very profitable.

No, I don't think so. Why? Communist failed completely as social and political experiment. Just research what happened in Soviet Union, China under Mao, Romania, Yugoslavia, East Germany and many other former communist countries in the world. World communism as idea and concept collapsed in 1989 in Berlin (remember story about Berlin wall?) and nobody can restore this idea any more. Forget Cuba or North Korea, when their old leaders die it will be over. After all what communism can offer today? Nothing. It's nice theory but don't work in real life.

I think that many of people who judge Obama as bad parents probably have children who are even worse. It's not easy to be daughter of the US president, specially if you are teenager. Yes, she did something wrong but still didn't kill anybody ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Many successful people today, in business or politics, did the same when they was young. This story became interesting only because she is daughter of US president. There are so many kids out there who are doing even worse things but nobody care.

You have 3 options. Buy, hold or sell (spend). If you have available funds and don't have good business or idea where to spend it, than buying BTC is good and long term idea how to earn. If you don't like gambling, trading or don't need to buy some digital products online than just simple hold BTC funds in your wallets and you will be fine.

I don't have Bitcoin related business yet but plan to open it in next 6 months. It will be advertising platform and users will have opportunity to pay for their ad packages with Bitcoin and some other payment processors. Will let you know about details when business will be ready to launch.

Thank you guys ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I'm doing my best and really waiting for the day when I will achieve financial freedom, have more free time for my family, friends, travel around the world etc. It's like the dream now but I believe it will be reality, soon or later. It's important to have vision, long term goal and fight for it.

Honestly, I don't believe in trading, HYIP opportunities with BTC, gambling etc. It's to risky in my opinion. Of course, some people may earn good money but most people will loose their ''hard earned'' bitcoin. I suggest to invest bitcoin only in your ''own wallet'' ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) In this way, you will not earn fast, but eventually will earn based on price increase, without to much risk and possible frauds in this risky ''get rich overnight'' SCAMS. Well I respect your opinion. But we all know that holding bitcoin for a long time have its risk. If you remember during bitcoin peak. People bought it at around 1000 - 1200 USD. Now tell me it's been more than 2 years, and yet if they just hold their bitcoin at this point, they are still at most 50% deficit. As for if they learn how to grow their bitcoin, at least at this point they already ROI and the bitcoin they are holding is just the profit from that venture. Well, I also respect your opinion. In fact, everything is risk in life but we have to think how to minimize it and get profit without to big risk. Yes, BTC price going up and down but, in fact, you loose only if you sell for smaller price than you bought. I'm here long term and, if necessary, I will wait 3,4,5 years or longer, until BTC price go up to the level which gives me good profit ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Well, I also agree that they are not the best candidates for the next US presidents. In fact, I don't trust Hillary and also don't trust Trump. But, people decided, in the election and it's nothing we can do about it. It's democracy, not perfect political system but it works already last 200-300 years ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Basically I choose Hillary not because she is good candidate but (in my opinion) she is not to bad choice as Trump.

We can have any opinion, that Hillary is the best, or Trump or anybody else, or nobody, but we can't change decision of American people. People clearly expressed their desire and opinion that next US president should be Hillary or Trump. In November we will know the winner in this election, new US president. We may like him or her or not and can even think that someone else was better candidate but in democracy most people decide in election. Person who win election is legitimate national representative and have mandate from the people. It's all we have to understand about democracy. If you don't like the winner, you wait 4 years and vote again

I'm not yet on that level but, day by day, I'm coming closer to this long term goal. Part of my BTC funds I will invest in my own online business and hopefully this will speed up whole process I'm still optimist and believe that very soon I will be able to get rid from my regular job and that earnings from BTC will replace my regular salary 100 % and even more.

Bitcoin can't be illegal because most countries, governments or state laws don't even recognize Bitcoin as money, currency or financial assets. In my country, for example, nobody recognize bitcoin. Even if I want, there is no way to report earnings from bitcoin to the tax authorities. I can only report earnings if I sell Bitcoin and exchange to other, ''hard'' currency.
