People who accept bitcoin as a salary tend to save it instead of spending it seeing it has potential to grow so they view it more valuable than money from their salary.
I think it should be paid as a 401k option instead as salary. In that way it nly makes sense to save it.
I think you mean for those people who have a lot of source of income and their salary would be their saving cause your recommendation is to hold their salary but that is not applicable to those people who only depending on their salary to spend in their daily expenses and also hassle for them to exchange bitcoin into fiat.

You got a point there, it is easier to say that it is good to accept bitcoin as a salary, but the real downside of it is that most of the commodities, bills  and other expenses are payable with real money...Having a bitcoin as a salary, would be a little hassle.. You have to convert it back to fiat just to buy your needs... Lucky if you are not eating (kidding aside)..  Grin and only saves your salary most of the time...   Smiley


It's not only about hassle on exchanging btc to fiat and also it has risk if your salary would be payed at Bitcoin In that case your salary would depend on Bitcoins price which is really risky. As you said it's easy for some to say they accept Bitcoin as salary because they're stable enough to sustain enough their needs without depending on his salary but what about to those who fully depend on their salary? They would probably refer to receive fiat than btc.

That's right... The value of your salary would change from time to time...So maybe today you could pay your loans and tomorrow your loans will be increasing its interest and that would keep on happening to you til the price of bitcoin would not move too much...  Smiley

I'm just wondering, how would the government impose income tax on us if we would receive our salary as bitcoin?  Cheesy I think lots to be done...
Right, in switching on paying Bitcoin as a salary there would many things to be adjusted and needs to be change before implementing the system of Bitcoin as a salary. Government would have a big problem on collecting taxes if Bitcoin would be implemented as serve as a salary.

Hi, bitcoin users i am from the Philippines. Willing to know if bitcoin is accepted to in your country. Because right now i have used one service that allows me to pay online or shopping buy steam and load so i am wondering if bitcoin is being used or known in your country.    Huh Huh Huh Huh

I'm also a Filipino like you. Bitcoins to our country is not that accepted yet, only few businesses accepted bitcoins and we have only one merchant so far who accepted it which is coins.ph, And some are using bitcoins to our country for their own interest. Just like what they create in onecoin, and bitclub. They deceived many Filipinos about bitcoin, they collected money to them. And others they attach it to MLM etc. but all of it are Filipino deceiver. I'm just stating the fact.

Mostly, we use coins.ph as a main way to cash it out coz it is easier to use it when it is fiat, and coins.ph is now accepting payments for amazon orders...That's a good move, and most probably soon, they will be accepting payments for other online stores..  Smiley Can't wait to see that...


I'm waiting also for that service would be offered soon in coins.ph, it would be very great and useful to many users of that site and it would give you convenience in purchasing online goods thru online stores out there. We'll let's wait for its development and sure many people would love it.
9343  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is stealing Bitcoin illegal? on: July 29, 2016, 05:34:07 AM
Let's say I generate a new address and by some miracle it has Bitcoin already in it belonging to somebody else. Is it legal to just take it? I understand those odds are very low, no need to lecture me, I'm just interested.

I don`t believe in miracles.If somebody sends btc to your wallet by mistake this isn`t stealing bitcoins.
It will be ethical to return those bitcoins.
I would return them,if i receive large amount of btc.

Not a lot of people will do that anymore. This world have been corrupted since it was created. But with your choice that would be correct and I hope after you do that at least the owner should give you a reward.

Returning of property doesn't happen in the real world.
It is even more unlikely to happen in the virtual world.

As of now you're definitely right, returning someone's possession that you steal is nearly impossible since no one would never give you a reward unless if you find those things and don't have the intention to steal maybe you'll get a reward if you return to owner but if you have an intention to get those things then you l surely. Decide not to return because you have planned it already.
9344  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin worst decision you will ever make? on: July 29, 2016, 05:26:50 AM
Someone said, “If you fail to plan then you plan to fail”. My worst decision is not making any decision which might sounds funny but that’s true.

I heard about bitcoin long ago and I really didn’t paid attention at that time (and I think bitcoin was available at comparatively low price at that time).

I am not disappointed because I believe that ‘better late than never’. Bitcoin is still undervalued and we are still in early stage so I find that I’m one of early adapter when it comes to long term. In my country less than 0.05% people know about bitcoin so I think I’m early adapter.


I totally agree, it's better be late than never were. Still on the young age of Bitcoin it's not to late to invest and save Bitcoin as of now that we didn't do in the previous years I heard first. About Bitcoin. There are times that I regret to buy in those times and didn't pay too much attention to Bitcoin.
9345  Other / Archival / Re: Do you have paypal account even though you have bitcoin? on: July 29, 2016, 05:20:13 AM
I have a verified PayPal account but I haven't log in since I started here in Bitcoin because as of now I usually use Bitcoin to purchase online game credits in steam. PayPal is still use full in many ways on online purchasing but I decided to focus more on Bitcoin since you can't only use it as a payment also you can earn it unlike PayPal it really depends on you credit or debit card.

One needs to have a planned budget as well long term schedule. Also capability is a must to focus much on the different earning and make the targeted saving which is more important to fulfil the long term or short term plan. This helps in avoiding unwanted spending.
Planning is very important on setting your future goals either short or long term plans. You must search another ways to have a source of income so that you could make a saving at least for future use or investment it would very helpful. If you have a fix plan or set up you won't look into other things that would lead to unwise spending as you also said.
9347  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin can not replace fiat on: July 29, 2016, 04:34:19 AM
There's no way that Bitcoin could replace fiat because most of us used fiat in everyday living and it's used very very long time and it was adopted for how many centuries have passed even it evolved but still a paper currency. I can't see any possibility that Bitcoin could replace fiat in any way. Maybe they are the same in terms of they are both money but they have differences since Bitcoin is a digital currency and fiat is physical.
9348  Other / Off-topic / Re: What to do with my signature campaign earnings ? on: July 29, 2016, 04:17:00 AM
Just save it. If you don't need money and kept it for a long time or if it's big enough you can invest it to trading so that you would have another source of income. Some people. Usually do with their earnings they convert to. Fiat and used for their daily needs and some make it with a living like me. I used my signature campaign earnings to. My everyday living.
9349  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: 0.3 btc in a week on: July 28, 2016, 03:55:42 PM
Hey Guys,

Is there any way I can find 0.3 btc in a week? I can stay at the PC whole day. And for gambling I don't have money to gamble. Investments are scams. I won't ask for loans because I'm a newbie.

Any other way I can find 0.3 btc in a week.

Thank you.

As I've said a few times before, the most common thought with newbies is that you can earn something fast. I mean you can, but that's eather gambling or starting your own business and even taht takes some time.

you can earn through gambling fastly if youre lucky but if not youll lose more rather than gaining more. Yes, it takes time and really hard work to achieve 0.3/week but it seems impossible mostly of us earn a little by week except to those big investors or big time traders out there for sure they can reach that amount.

That amount is only achievable by trading and with a big capital with enough knowledge and experience, except that nothing can earn you that much in a week, maybe gambling can do it but not for everyone.

Gambling would be a very wrong decision if you try to earn money in daily basis or your have a amount target for a week since it can't guarantee that amount easily and you'll also need money to gamble which is a really bad idea it could lose all away your money from it instead of having a goal of earning and then you'll end up nothing. So stay away on gambling.
9350  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to make money on bitcointalk? on: July 28, 2016, 03:52:09 PM
There's so many ways on how to make money in this forum. If you do have a skill then go to services section and there are lots of job there, if it suits to your skill then it would be an opportunity to make money but if you don't have such skills then joining signature campaign would be better since it would give you money In each post you made but according to your rank you'll gain small pay rate.
Other skills are risk i think..... it have a time bound.... we can earn money simply by signature campaign....we can be affiliated to any advertisement and earn BTC in every single post   

Skills are never risk, with skills you can earn as much bitcoins as you want, because if you have skills you wont be jobless online, and you can find work everyday if your skills are liked by the community.
There's no such risk if you have a skill on something that relates to those job in services section in fact it's an advantage to you if you have these skills because you can easily make money with your talent which you can't found on everyone. Be thankful if you have expertise on anything because it would be very helpful to you for the rest of your life.
9351  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Dark marketplaces? on: July 28, 2016, 01:45:26 PM
As far as I know Bitcoin started evolving after the huge success of Silk Road (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silk_Road_(marketplace)).
Be extremely careful if you set a black market. The first clients can be secret service agents. They can come with hundreds of BTC and become your friends. Few month later you can be in a prison  Sad.

You will only be in prison if you are doing something illegal, which is why most people explore the dark web anyway. I wonder who invented it in the first place Undecided

No one know who create darkweb  and even those  people there  also we dont know so its hard to trace  them to that place which that place is the best for doing illegal activities because when youre  there  youre invincible and that dark web so be careful if you try to surf deep there.
9352  Economy / Speculation / Re: If bitcoin dropped to $1, what you do? on: July 28, 2016, 01:39:01 PM
Most people would buy as many Bitcoin as possible because the price has never been that low ever.
But would it make sense to buy if everyone is going to buy as many as possible and hold on to it.

I don't think that bitcoin can drop to just $1 by looking at the user database of it, because the coins that drop wildly are those which has no users to buy or sell them and if a coin has countless users and investors or sellers then how can that drop to that point?

Yes there would be a big problem  if bitcoins price would drop low like that and surely many investors would lost its faith in bitcoin or some may  panic buying if the price gradually decrease its price. There were still  high risk takers still hold or even buy more bitcoin if the price would drop to the lowest.
9353  Other / Off-topic / Re: If i give you 10 BTC what will you do? on: July 28, 2016, 12:45:45 PM
I doubt I will just let the coins sit in a paper wallet for too long if there is no movement in the price of Bitcoin. After all it takes money to make more money.
Better to save your paper wallet into safe place or you will lose your amount on easy way.
Better to store your bitcoin to multiple wallet , and hold it or invest on some sites.

Paper wallet would be risky if you dont have a private place to hide you bitcoin, unless if you have a safe on your house then it would be okay.
You can store it online or hardware wallet  but still risky just remember all the  important things  specially the key and passwords so that there would be no problem in future.
9354  Other / Off-topic / Re: bitcoin affects life a lot on: July 28, 2016, 12:42:38 PM
Well bitcoin is taking my free time almost, at home its affecting a bit my relation, i try to control it but its bigger then me, i may say im addicted to bitcoin, and i love internet two problems to handle at same time. But the other side is making my dream come true soo, i cant complain at all.

It wont be a problem pal, Its just time management to handle those things properly and you wont destroy any relations inside your family. If you  spent all your free time on bitcoin just  remember to lend  some % of your time on your family or either friends then go back again. It just like that.

9356  Other / Off-topic / Re: Earning a living with bitcoin? on: July 28, 2016, 12:36:31 PM
I think there's a lot of people who earn a living with Bitcoin in 3rd world countries. It's not very hard to earn $100 in BTC over a month, which is a minimum income in many poor countries.

$100 a month is achievable with just signature campaign, and if someone do skill works i mean if he sells his skills for bitcoins then he can earn way more then that, and if someone also does trading then he can make a really comfortable living with just bitcoin.

Right you can achieve $100 just joining  to signature campaigns alone which is  very good to those people who have less income or having hard time to find some job. You can do signature campaign instead but there are lot of ways to make money h just  search in this forum youll find which suits to you.
9357  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you accept bitcoin as your salary? on: July 28, 2016, 12:34:09 PM
if it is like a second job's salary then yes but if it is supposed to be my first salary and as bitcoin only then no i don't like it.

mainly because i still need fiat to live my life and spend money so receiving only bitcoin means i have to do a conversion every day that i want to spend also the price is so volatile that i can't feel safe if i receive everything in bitcoin.

Well yes I agree with you. As a secondary source of income it is very acceptable, maybe we are from the same country.

Second is I need fiat currency as a salary since there are no stores or shop here that are accepting bitcoins and if u convert bitcoin to fiat currency there are additional charges so it is a disadvantage to me.

Exactly theres no guarantee if you would recieve bitcoin as a salary. Inspite of hassle of exchanging into fiat everyday you would be still worried about the price, if you decided to accept bitcoin as salary it would be useless though if shops on your country doesnt  accept bitcoin as a payment atleast you can exchange it to fiat.
9358  Economy / Speculation / Re: If bitcoin dropped to $1, what you do? on: July 27, 2016, 09:08:09 AM
Many people would got confused what happen to bitcoin if it drop to $1 bracket maybe some would not buy or either buy a little amount of it but to those risk takers for sure they would buy Thousands of it and hoping the price would increase and i think many would be millionaire. Just my opinion.

when it happens at least there will be a lot of people are panic buying as much as possible, and probably most people think like that. but it is a risk, but if you dare to take the risk, you will become rich. I also probably would take that risk Cheesy

There would a panic buying indeed since they dont want to have negative profit out of their investment especially to big holders of bitcoin. If bitcoins price would drop to $1  definitely many risk takers would take the risk Grin as you said hoping for another price increase even $2 you have 100% profit to that.

Welcome aboard Patrick
well since you spend some money for TREz , i would advice you to buy some BTC and start trading with small amounts just to test the waters
spend some time here on forum, put your input where you can, rank up your account and join a sig campaing
-WARNING-
Everything with investment & easy profit 98% is scam, ponzi, HYIP so take a closer look in to that in order to learn avoid this bastards


This is the best suggestion  its better to stay away from ponzi or hyips because it would definitely lose your money. Yes trading together with signature campaign could give you decent amount in a month more than 0.1 btc. In trading just play smart out of it . Just remember trading has a risk also in losing money but less than compared to gambling.
9360  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: MOST COMMON MISTAKES OF A NEWBIE on: July 27, 2016, 08:58:35 AM
When I Was a Newbie I made the Following Mistakes:-
1) I invest my whole Bitcoins I Earned From Faucets in a Hyip Website and Getting Scammed by the website..
2) Once I Invest in Dice webeie and also Lost My Funds....

Im sorry to hear that. Better far from HYIP pal, because they are nothing more than a Ponzi scheme that pays old members with new members money. And if no deposit is entered it is ascertained that the site will be closed.
Moreover gambling, I think gambling is only going to spend our money in vain, because there is no strategy in gambling only luck factor alone. Thabk you

Yes its better to stay away with hyips and ponzi because both would scam your hard earned money in the end. Hyips and ponzi cant sustain for so long because they cant pay for their clients as the day goes by in that case they easily ran away and gone. Gambling is a matter of luck theres no such strategy.
