9081  Economy / Speculation / Re: What could make bitcoins price go up again? on: March 19, 2017, 04:36:32 PM
I was wondering how BTC's price dropped pretty hard the last few days and how it was most likely the result of the ETF rejection, the possibility of a hardfork and the panic selling that resulted after these two events. In the past however, after bitcoins major crash in january '17, it rose quite quickly in  less than 2 months back to a new ATH. Why did this happen, and what could make BTC's price go up again in the upcoming weeks/months?

First of all the price was not even bothered because of the Etf rejection, it's is the news of hardfolk and the miners desire to make love to Bitcoin unlimited which has resulted in the crash. However all is yet not lost. One global economy uncertainty event, will trigger up side chart again for Bitcoins. However till then, there nothing but patience for all of us. As the uncertainty will continue for a while, let's be positive something good happens for Bitcoins.

If you really need to know then you need to buy it and use it. However to be more specific it is cashless Firstly. It is highly secure 🔐 and you can use it any time any where. The constant price up though sometimes it goes down to but that's another important reason to use. Then you can trade it for Fiat and make some good cash. You do not need to pay any tax whatsoever. You are anonymous means no one will know who you are when you send a Bitcoin payment. Plus you can buy local goods from Bitcoins also.

Hi all, wanted a quick opinion if you all are seeing the current test match between India and Australia as we can see India has taken lead, and time is only one and half day left. The pitch is already started detoriating, so does it makes sense to play a big amount on the draw? Or will either team script a victory. I am planning to play a big hand, and I am getting confused where to play on, as draw looks favorable but then the pitch makes me worried there might be a result. Any one playing a call.
9084  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BU + segwit on: March 19, 2017, 05:01:08 AM
As logical and good it may sound, it is unlikely to happen. The miners sadly do not care about block size all they want is control and high fees. They want to influence the price and take away the decentralised features, they want to rule it and it's sad that the community is weakly giving it up to them. The community should have fought back but no why would we. We don't want segwit or bu. And if we don't take a stand now, it will be too late.
9085  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think the transaction fee will kill bitcoin? on: March 19, 2017, 04:41:29 AM
I never had really bothered about transactions fees as coinbase.com was not charging any for the same. But suddenly coinbase.com has announced it will be charging a transaction fees, for accounts different than than coinbase.com. Definitely this will kill the interest for many users like me, who were not charged the transaction fees. As of now the only way to beat is to. Make sure that I trade with a coinbase.com user to save on the fees but not all use that. I think this will effect the use of Bitcoin users.
9086  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Was the SEC right after all? on: March 19, 2017, 04:31:42 AM
SEC was right in a way that it could not give permission to Bitcoins Etf but is It right to assume that the prices will crash if it didn't was wrong. The fork statement has taken the steam outside the market of Bitcoin and now it's a matter of not when but if the prices of Bitcoins come crashing down. Once again the community has divided itself and we are going to be paying a huge price. The SEC would obviously not allow such kind of Etf to be passed away, they are bound by their regulators and rules do we all should just pray, that better sense prevails.
9087  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How much of your wealth is in Cryto/Bitcoin? on: March 19, 2017, 04:26:06 AM
Why would any one tell you that information. It is classified and if any one will tell it increases the chances of that person being hacked. I don't really think one should write this kind of information or ask for it. What you could have asked for how are you investing in Bitcoin, have you tied it to any goal. What are your long term plans. But no you are asking how much Bitcoins one have, which means I am getting suspicious of your intentions, I. Would advise people not to reveal their Bitcoin holding to the Op.
9088  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin Sound Money? on: March 18, 2017, 11:38:43 AM
I don't even understand how and why do people compare gold and Bitcoin. Bitcoin is a crypto currency and gold is a commodity. Both are limited one can say but both are different so they should not be compared. As for the price hike gold is controlled and in many ways it's prices are manipulated but Bitcoins is decentralised and it's prices are not at manipulated, while the oldest yet prefer gold the young do like Bitcoins. They feel they can take risk and try something new. And with Bitcoin now you can buy so much stuff so would suggest people treat it as a currency.
9089  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens to the Bitcoin Network if a World war Starts? on: March 18, 2017, 11:28:25 AM
I'm starting to get very worried about the state of international relations. Trump is a potential threat to world peace, and growing tensions with China and other countries are becoming a real threat.

So, if a World war starts, there are all sorts of scenarios we can consider, but what do you guys think it could happen to Bitcoin?

You are not alone to think war could happen, definitely I see a war coming. Usa has president Trump, we all know these countries have their policies and for some reason many countries are trying to undermine them, with Asian countries never friends like China supporting Pakistan and India getting support from Japan and China and Japan locked over disputes. Yes it's a scary scenario and trump has added fuel to the fire by making a huge pay for the defense budget. In that scenario Bitcoins shall shoot through the roof, but let's hope common sense prevails among all.
9090  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to explain bitcoin to teenagers or children on: March 18, 2017, 08:20:42 AM
It is not easy to explain a child a Bitcoin, he has just taken baby steps in financial world and to. Explain him Bitcoin could indeed prove difficult. The only real way is to make them more enthusiastic to learn about it, is to reward them in Bitcoin. Then show them facuets, and then help them buy goods with it. Second way would be to introduce math problems based on Bitcoins and that would help them learn more of it. Thirdly you could try graphics and make them see where it was and now where it is and try to make them like it and understand it.
9091  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin has no competition on: March 18, 2017, 08:14:36 AM
I wonder if the Op words now. Hold true as we all know Bitcoin unlimited is gaining lot of support and it's a matter of time if not years that they will take over Bitcoins, it will be a sad end but that's what it looks even monore is gaining now on Bitcoins, of course their rates are different, but this particular altcoin is gaining a lot. I only wonder won't the alt coins make a big sale as they are far affordable then a Bitcoin is and I feel this will be a major turning point going forward, if the fork happens and it splits then what. It's about time we understand that bitcoin has competition.
9092  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Europa League/Champions League Lounge on: March 17, 2017, 11:57:58 AM
here is the draw of the quarter finals of Champion's League:

At. Madrid vs Leicester
Bor. Dortmund vs Monaco
Bayern vs Real Madrid
Juventus vs Barcelona

Atletico madrid can go even in the final!
The four best teams are on the same side


I have a feel Leicester will play a surprise on atletico, they already beat a Spanish side and they will play without worry. Would favor Monaco to win, bayern and Real is a tough game especially for real who will welcome a ex coach. Barcelona should defeat juventus. Now turning to europa cup Manchester United looked hazy last night but I did expect them to won it. And should Leicester and Manchester United win respective cups it shall be really interesting to see who looses out on champion leave.
9093  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin money? on: March 17, 2017, 09:46:19 AM
Definitely for me it's money, though asked in 2010 this question is sure shot to divide many users opinion that it's not money. Well Money is something for me which allows you to buy or sell goods and receive a monetary value for. Bitcoin does that, it allows us to buy a vide variety of goods and then allow us to sell it and receive money in Bitcoins itself. For that very reason for me it is money. To some it may kept as investment also, but how would you keep it as a investment of it were not money you could bought for, I mean for any investment money is needed. So any day for me it will be money, let's see where the vote ends in.
9094  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: China Bitcoin Rules Would Require Exchanges to Verify Clients’ Identity on: March 17, 2017, 09:02:49 AM
i think in this way china want to find satoshi lol Smiley

What does satoshi mean?

Satoshi is the one who created Bitcoins and no China government is not doing this to find satoshi. To some extent I like the idea if it's implemented, it will make sure the exchanges are kept in check, that will help the popularity of Bitcoins and will get more Bitcoins users in the system. Then it could pave the way, for China market to accept, Bitcoin as a payment. But my concern here is will people be happy to disclose themselves identity. The whole point of Bitcoins is about mainthing annomonity. I think this may just scare the users away, I think this point most of people are not understanding, as people would be at risk to having their incomes exposed.
9095  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Satoshi Studios: the first knowledge hub for South East Asia on: March 17, 2017, 08:39:13 AM
The article looks good. So basically you are targeting Asians countries. And are you promoting some course, now what exactly is this course about. I feel you could write a short summary, I am bit confused reading and understanding it. And are you promoting your course here then I would suggest to have it move to local board India or other Asian countries you are targeting, that will help you reach a wider audience. You can keep here also, but I felt your desired audience could be out in local boards. Anyways consider writing in one liners more details so people like me can understand.
9096  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: BIT.AC :: MULTICURRENCY WALLET :: BUILT-IN INSTANT EXCHANGE :: Affiliate Program on: March 17, 2017, 08:33:26 AM
2FA shoud be implemented for log in. This feature is like a "must" with those type of sites. I think it's easy to implement within the site, for any dev. Started to promote now to take part of the affiliate program. Wish me good luck  Cheesy

That's a great idea for the site owner to consider and from the comments it looks like all want this feature, I am sure the site owner shall take a look into it. This will help quell any security issues that people might have and increase more users to be involved in it. Let's wait and see if the Op will give us a update if this feature will be a reality or not. If yes and when will it be available for all or maybe he could pick some testers to make sure it all functions well.
9097  Economy / Speculation / Re: So, what's up with the price? on: March 16, 2017, 03:16:06 AM
The Etf was always bound to be a reject, and all the hope of it being accepted and Bitcoin being shoot up was spread by newbies so that was OK. Now that bitcoin unlimited is gaining momentum, and they have recently gained support of 15% miner which I feel shall be bad for us in the near future. Cause it would result in splitting Bitcoin into two which would be the sole reason for its price downfall. Apart from that, the global uncertainty will push the prices up and up. Let's wait and see how more support, BU gets. I don't think there any reason than BU if the price crashes. It's support level is 1000$
9098  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin bring any country on its knees? on: March 15, 2017, 09:58:39 AM
Are you even serious, how in the world would it bring a country to its knees. First of all no country owns it, it is measurable in $. Maybe one could sell all the btc and wage a war against the particular country, but how long will they last, they won't even last even a while. Plus even before such agencies try they shall be destroyed. So no I don't think any one can do what you are assuming to. But can they cause trouble yes sadly yes they can cause lot of troubles. They could finance terror activities, the thought only sends a chill down my back, what if btc got banned due to these fools.
9099  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If money would not be a problem, would you still gamble? on: March 15, 2017, 06:46:49 AM
I would definitely gamble  Grin cause gambling is not only for making money, it's my passion. If I had more money I would have divided into parts where a certain part of it was to make sure I had enough to gamble. From the profits I would prefer to teach people how to gamble better, like provide them the education they needed to gamble safely and smartly. How not to loose it all. I want to go once to Las Vegas and gamble entire day and night without being worried that I could go bankrupt. And even if I did, I would bet again that's what betting is to me.
9100  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin will save the elite. on: March 15, 2017, 06:16:44 AM
The question reminds me of a story and I hope op will understand it along with others. A person came outside a village and saw a saint and asked what kind of people live here, the Saint replied what you think jealous angry maybe he replied saint nodded in approval, another man came same question same reply by saint, the man said happy and prosperous then the same live in. Morale is what your perceive is what you believe. There are so many I know who got rich thanks to Bitcoins, and they were not elite. The so called rich are yet to come in Bitcoins directly. People are getting rich because they are timing it well, earning for it. Look around so many of us earned Bitcoins through hard work and that's what you need to do.
