I think the India Vs Bangladesh will be a clear whitewash. Bangladesh don't really look strong or as I can say they are really struggling and it's evident. It is pertinent to note that I feel Kohli would like to crush them with a big margin so as to make sure India stays No. 1and he gets more accolades for being the brave captain he is. I was expecting India to rap it up In 3-4 days but I hope they do it even sooner. Though if Bangladesh does offer some fight back will be interesting but I really doubt it will happen.

Theres a very popular saying a gambler who looses will often gamble more to recover his looses. It's natural instinct that we will go to play for to recover already looses. In this process we sub consicially prepare our mind to try till we at least make up for our looses and in the process we end up making more looses, that's the way human brain is wired up and it's more like a subject of human psychology. This is my personal experience be it on sports or bets I have always done it, and in casinosi literally go mad took me a while but manged to tone it down, but once you loose stop for another day don't loose it all on the same day.

Satoshi I feel clearly knew that if he would made himself public, he would have been first humiliated and then tortured to death and Bitcoin would never have evolved. It would have ended and that guy took a hit for the future of Bitcoin, but no all we have to do is criticize him for hiding without even understanding that his identity would have meant a sure death for Bitcoin. It is every day we should thank him, for staying anomous and making sure Bitcoin lived forever. We should just respect it and move on.

You are talking like a politician here trying to make people go away from banks and all. I feel it's a bad idea, targeting banks cause the fact is Bitcoins is not accepted by all, maybe in future it will. Coming to your point on how to make Bitcoin more attractive I think give away is one of the best option. Secondly we should market the idea of Bitcoin strength. I feel we should use charts and colors to show where Bitcoin was and it's rise since then. Get financial advisors, to ask client to invest in Bitcoin this is often ignored by people here. Bitcoin has to be promoted as a saving tool and once it is done, instead of gold and silver. I think we should get financial planners and ask them to promote it, then we shall see a huge impact.

Agreed with op that Europe bank transfers are free but that's Fiat money we are talking about and Bitcoin is a crypto currency. Paypal is going to take a big hit as it has stopped payments to entire ptc industry even the reputed clicksense and neobux were not spared. I had a horrible experience and trauma of loosing all my funds, so even if I need to wait I will choose Bitcoin any day. Now you say banks offer free transfer but do they give price rise like Bitcoin does no right. Bitcoin is really good and one should stick to it irrespective of the delays which I am sure will processed out someday.

Ya I agree with op this is happening suddenly. Last few days the transactions were going so slow and suddenly they are now speeding it up. Last night I received a good amount of btc at quick speed. Looks like good days for btc now just the price also shoots up it will be more merrier for us. But is my logic right that higher the price slower the transaction and lower the price higher the transaction. Or it has been nothing to do with price cause even after paying the fees people were not able to get quick transactions so ain't it linked to price then?

So it's that time of the year where it's a make or break time for the teams either they win or manager gets sacked. In particular let's focus on Leicester manager Ranieri and Aresene wenger. Which one do you think could actually be sacked if their team loose again. Or let's say Leicester are relegated and arsenal are booted of top 4. Though both the clubs have publicly supported them, but the word on the streets is they will be sacked. If performance doesn't improve. Want to know yours views I feel both shall be may Aresene wenger maybe in the end of season that's my bet on, Ranieri if Leicester loose anytime now. What's your bet on.

I partially agree with op here. There is no doubt that those who pays the fees get vip treatment but then the people are not really rich. They earn like we do and pay a price I would not call them rich just as of now, I would rather call them smart as they have learnt the art of making more money than we have, otherwise they would not be able to afford the fees. Bitcoin was never about the rich and poor. The core values were a decentralised currency and people are free to choose to earn it or pay fees with it so for me they are not rich at all ya but they do get vip treatment cause they can afford it.

Why would you want to do such a thing in the first place until you are in some deep trouble. I would suggest you not to do this kind of stuff cause it would bring Bitcoin a bad name and if you are caught this would help the agencies who are already pissed with Bitcoin. I really don't appreciate people using Bitcoin for this kind of activities, why do you all want Bitcoin to have a bad name. Please it's a kind request refrain from this and don't do this or give other people such ideas. I am sure many newbies will be tempted to use this and then they mess up and bam the entire community could be effected.

Why does this kind of thread keep on pooping every now and then? Not the man op claims or Craig is satoshi and it's better to get on with life rather than argue. No one has any solid proof it's just one words. They are just saying big and not matching proof. I think this forum really should ban this question until someone gets major proof. There a bigger issue that you should look at like the unconfirmed transactions. I don't think we will ever know who created Bitcoin and that's how it was meant to be.

I feel the Bitcoin is fundamentally strong now and it won't crash anytime soon. The global economy looks shaky and that's why Bitcoin is being favorable. I feel if Bitcoins hold this strong it shall keep on going up. So far so good looks like the Bitcoin wagon is continuing it's golden ride. Now if there's something bad in our economy Bitcoin price will just shoot up and that's what we all should wait for, cause something will happen I just feel it should. I think 1200 by March looks a reality and 1500 post June.

Not at all addicted I would say if he can stop for a day or two then he can definitely stop for the long term. This I feel at his age he's liking the game. For eg Candy crush when it came In all went crazy to play it and after a while it faded away. Similarly for him this is just a phase it will pass away. I would not really be worried about this at all. Addicted would be if he would invest his own money and loose. Maybe it's just he has nothing else to do and he wants to kill the time. I don't think you should make such a scene cause he likes to play a game.

I know this condition been there, every time we keep on saying it's the last time and it's never the last time. Either we win or Loose we can't just stop it can we. So I did try a experiment on the my friend and would say you can try it to. First of all make a budget of your gambling, how much do you want to gamble, then how much can you afford to loose. What is your break even point going to be. How much profit are you looking at. Once your finances are clear, you can make a safe choice. I would tell you don't stop gambling, trust me it won't help. Keep a budget like I told you and play once in a while, and over a period of time try to get into other things. Phase yourself out.

Not sure if this really works but you could say it does sometimes atleast. Look it's all at the end I would call it superstitious belief and like I would say it's just that one  feels comfortable like I have a habit of wearing same clothes, same band taking wishes from similar people when ever I have exams. This I believe is kind of cycle that we all love to believe will work for us and if the woman that is besides them helps them win, they will choose to believe it's her luck that helps them, but do try it before you actually try it. Not all woman are lucky lol.

As the title suggests I need one voucher of Rs 10000. I shall pay in bitcoin, once I know about that you have it I will escrow the funds and you shall pass on the voucher to me. If the voucher fails I shall not pay you, but if it passes you shall get your funds. Only reputed guys post your offer here so if you are a scam people can tell me. I don't want discounts, just get me the voucher post here. Once I post the funds proof you have to do send me. No more information is required and no pm. Thanks.

Update : working on getting funds transfer once that happens and I have escrow in place will unlock the thread.

Hi i want to sell 103 paypal usd for 94$ in Bitcoins. I do understand that normally seller charges a huge margin but I don't have extra funds at this time hence keeping a 8% for the seller.  My friend is getting his gf a fitbit charge 2 and since he is low on funds I can't give margin, as 14th February is just round the corner and I have already taken loan to fill up the remaining amount. If you are a honest seller I shall send first, only if you are engaged in this kind of business. Please let me know asap as I want to make sure he can have it before next week. Sorry and thanks.

Well I really am finding it difficult to answer cause being a passive gambler I would like to take that thrill one more time, feel the thrill of winning or loosing, get my senses refreshed. But I would not play everything cause I would play another bet what if I would survive I am sure I would need to use it to bet the other day. And then as you rightly said we need to save for our family and friends too. So I think one can gamble some part of his part if not all. One need to think of others too, they could use the money

I would totally advice you against it. This is one of the most wrong way to loose your money and you surely will. Cause you are getting into something you don't even understand. It is very risky and highly not recommendable. Maybe you will have some luck and get a bet right but most of the times you will get it wrong and you will end up paying a price. I would suggest you instead select a sport soccer or cricket, watch it understand how it works and then go for the kill.

Hi, I need a Indian to do work, if you are not a Indian but know a Indian then you can also apply.  I need to order a fitbit charge 2 for my friend in India. When I tried shipping from USA at their customs the price became double so he had to return it. So I need a Indian to order it for me. I shall pay a total of 180$ and the fund shall be escrowed. I shall pay 103$ via PayPal and rest via Bitcoins. That person shall order from online site I shall provide pay via bank or cc, and have it shipped to address I send him. Once I get confirmation of my Friend receiving it, the escrow guy shall give you fund. I need only one person to confirm. Once that person confirms, I shall lock this thread till the time I work on escrow guy. Only Sr member and legendary allowed will consider other ranks if they have a high reputation will be considered. I shall try and pay 2-5$ as reward if I can save but that is not escrowed and i am not promising I will, if I will be able to save I shall surely pay. Thanks and Regards Juggy777.

If paypal is not accepted I can try and convert it to Bitcoin but please try paypal as converting can take time and I don't have extra funds.

Why do you even believe that the so called guys are actually satoshi. Not even one of them is satoshi they all just want to enjoy the like light. They know they are conning people and worst is people are even falling for it. If they were satoshi why not give some proof rather than make baseless claim. At a time when transactions are getting stuck they are choosing to hide away for what. Why not come back and try to fix the mess or at least reassure the people. I feel community should ban such people and wait till real satoshi returns.
