9381  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do bitcoin accepted in your country? on: July 25, 2016, 07:42:45 AM
I live on a small Island and because one company here made a bitcoin debit card bit ripped everyone off, people are wary of it so I haven't seen any shops here take bitcoin at all. I know the University of Nikosia takes it for student fees. It was the first university to ever accept bitcoin in the world I think but among the lay people, no one barley uses it. I am for sure the minority here.

I dont think so sir if the university in your place was the first one,  we also have 5  universities here in our country that accept bitcoin i think since then but yeah this kind of service makes me love bitcoin

Wow! Universities accepting bitcoin as a tuition fee? That's kind of new to me. May I ask where is that? For I may research some and maybe share it with others.

Yes that thing is possible and i have heard that universities accepts bitcoin on paying tuition fees. Ive heard its in philippines an application they use, i know because i have a friend here online from philippines and saying its possible to pay its tuition fees at university on where he study. Thats a very good innovation of bitcoin to offer such service would give convenience to anyone.
9382  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What's your biggest loss gambling? on: July 25, 2016, 07:37:33 AM
Mine is BTC0.1. I felt absolutely devastated after that...

Please do share your experiences and your biggest loss.
I loss in a gamble for about BTC.0001. Hehehe, no hurt feelings though. I have not try to gamble any higher than that cause i hate losing in a gamble. I tried faucet on a gamble site and bet it on game then i lost. Seems like i cant win any gamble. I'd rather invest than to gamble. Its not instant but sure you will earn from that.

Good decision, you must not gamble at all its such a waste of money its so hard to end gambling if you got hooked into it lets say your already addicted to gambling. Im also skeptical of holding my bitcoin i really dont like to lose bitcoin especially to gambling , your coins would be come to waste in the end.
9383  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin being used for illegal activities on: July 25, 2016, 07:34:53 AM
Gambling itself is illegal. Scamming is illegal. Selling accounts and trust is illegal. Selling phone number or bank account is illegal. Selling drugs is illegal. Selling contact numbers is illegal. All these can be done anonymously with BTC. Hence, this answers that

Strong agreed to that, since bitcoin is used commonly because of its anonymity and its hard to trace to the purchaser or the owner of that address. Thats why bitcoin is used in deepweb  because they cant be track in each illegal transaction. Thats the  disadvantages of bitcoin but overall bitcoin is very usefull to us in many ways.
9384  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If you had suddenly 500 BTC on: July 25, 2016, 07:30:14 AM
if i had 500btc then i am gonna leave bitcoin world any put all the money into bank and will take only the interest till i die. at least it will be more than enough for my pension.
LOL? your sound like you're have no any planning in the future when you got those BTC500 . Dude, if i had same amount like yours, i'l open new bussiness for my family. (i think this is better than just put all your money in bank and wait for interest?)

Its a better choice having a business than to put up all money on banks and waiting for the interest. Are you contented to that? Smiley   If i were you  invest into something that would give you more money, more than having a pension out of interest of banks as you stated.
9385  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Buying Drugs with Bitcoin ? on: July 25, 2016, 04:29:01 AM
Yes its possible to buy drugs using bitcoin you can go to deep web and try to purchase there but if i were you dont even think to try it or else youll end up in prison if fbi would caught you there. I wouldnt do such thing thats illegal even if i buy in fiat or in bitcoin. Drugs is illegal and it can destroy your whole life too.
9386  Other / Off-topic / Re: If i give you 10 BTC what will you do? on: July 25, 2016, 04:20:35 AM
I want ask anyone if i give you 10 Btc what will you do. because i want investment but i have no any good idea to invest it (except gambling) but i don't like dambling.So i want ask you viewS.
If some one give it 10 btc or I have 10 btc I choose only 1 option trading, I think my experience is enough to dont lose so much money in it. but seriously no one can give that amount to me I just work and wait to have it on my own.

10btc is a good amount in  trading it would give you good profits in each trade because 10btc is big enough. We have aim to gain profit not on lossing it. As you said no one would give us 10btc lol. If someone does then it would be the best day of my life. haha. We have the same perspective in terms of thinking a better future on investments.
9387  Other / Off-topic / Re: bitcoin affects life a lot on: July 25, 2016, 04:16:46 AM
Yes it bitcoin affects my life since it is already my source of income of everyday living. It can already sustain my needs ex. food, bills etc. Im really thankful that bitcoin was invented its very helpful especially to jobless person because its so hard to find job if youre a undergraduate person. Hope bitcoin would last forever.
9388  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you accept bitcoin as your salary? on: July 25, 2016, 03:58:15 AM
Its okey for me to accept bitcoin as my salary. Because in fact , Im converting my local currency into bitcoin, To have a great profit in it.
As long as bitcoin in allowed/Legal in my country i will be happy if that happen
I think you only consider the value of bitcoin now but you do not look if the price will goes down i do not think you will be happy in receiving bitcoin as your salary. It is good if you work in online and you pay for bitcoin but in regular job i do not see it will be great for the workers. That is only my opinion.

Thats what im thinking also, maybe hes watching on the  current price of bitcoin as he accepts it as a salary but it would be difficult  thing if the price would go down  maybe you would change your mind if you know what we are talking about. Its better to recieve the paper money salary than bitcoin because of its unstable price at the moment.
9389  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling made for kids???? on: July 25, 2016, 03:53:37 AM
Yes, gambling is for kids. Real men earn not gamble to survive. They are not fools to hand over their income to the house.
18+ is only a lie. Kids can gamble anytime online. Their account is registered without even asking their age.

Exactly even kid can simply register  easily because gambling sites dont even mind to ask their age but its useless even they put such verification even a kid would put that their already 18+ years  old and no one can stop it. Let them play we dont have the right to stop them except if i do have a son i would probably scold him if i caught him doing gambling. Shocked
9390  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: ARE NEWBIES CONSIDERED AS FOOLS? on: July 25, 2016, 03:49:19 AM
For a long time on this forum, I see people demonizing newbies for anything. From What I see, a new is considered as someone who doesn't 'know anything and is not supposed to say anything. Whatever you do, you will be told that "you are newbie". I ask myself, does it mean that newbies don't have a voice?

I realized some people build up their accounts and sell them when they are on a higher rank. They then start another account of which they will definitely start as a newbie. Can this person also be considered "worthless"?
it is a part of a newbie strategy to make money. And they are  the worthless human who already step  up in this forum.

Sad to know there are people are after only to make money in this forum by selling higher account then back to newbie. They think only how to make money and thats not a wise decision, for me its better to make high rank account then build another 1 then another, in that case they can make money joining those accounts on campaigns.
9391  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Funny thing I'm learning... on: July 25, 2016, 03:21:34 AM
Not really surprising. If you spend a lot of time on the Internet, chances are you have clicked into a website that gives you 1m satoshi. We usually just ignore stuffs online that we think are a scam or too good to be true. Maybe you signed up on one of those kind of offers or maybe a faucet site that you are in is giving out bonus.

I think you have surfed the net a lot and just can't remember where did you get the bonus.

Getting 1m satoshi as bonus on websites is nearly impossible since no one would give too big bonuses i think. Maybe some of his friends or another person just accidentally send the amount to his address. Well it must be his lucky day and recieve that amount, In my entire life in bitcoin i didnt recieve even once. lol  
9392  Economy / Economics / Re: Sell Everything? on: July 25, 2016, 03:16:48 AM
Its not advisable to sell btc right now, it is better to save btc until the price reaches to 800-900$ this year.
I believe that bitcoin will reach that price.

Sell everything can be good, but it also depends on the point if you think you will make more profit in the future, I would not do it.
I even think because of the halving the bitcoin will go to a much higher amount and after that halving now bitcoin is now stable around the market places.

But I still feel that this is not the right time to sell everything and say bye bye to bitcoin, as we will experience the effect of halving later in in this year where will be seeing much higher price.

As quoted by above mate selling doesn't indicate that user making an end to the bitcoin usage. The price has been fluctuating and going down with certain time interval. Possibly one with a panicked mind can go for a sell for requirements.
Yeah if you are satisfied with the current price you can sell, if your target is reached and you got good profits then it is better to sell than to be confused with the price whether it will go up or down, predictions becoming very difficult.

Yes its really difficult to predict the price of bitcoin in future but if you current price has reached to your desired level then I think you should sell your coins to secure profits.

We can choose when to sell now or wait for the right time. Yes its hard to decide specially you see the price of bitcoin as of now it goes up then suddenly goes down, It your own decision if you would to decide sell everything now to gain some profit. For me i would still hold and wait for the right time when bitcoins price is soaring up high.
9393  Economy / Economics / Re: Sell Everything? on: July 23, 2016, 07:44:04 AM
We will definitely see mass adoption in future which will take price to a next level so I think we should buy as much as possible right now as in future it will be difficult to invest money into it.

The biggest adoption news about the bitcoin is that Steam accepts the bitcoin. Next year, it could be Amazon.

Steam already accept bitcoin to purchase on their site, buying games, game credits and other. Its a good thing to me since im also a gamer i could use my bitcoin there to purchase what i want. It would be possible that amazon would  accepts bitcoin cause there are rumors that it would happen then its really a good news.
9394  Other / Off-topic / Re: If i give you 10 BTC what will you do? on: July 23, 2016, 07:39:47 AM
i will thank you and i will keep it in my wallet, because in history bitcoin has practically only increased its value, for me it's a very good investment Grin
yes and that is what i am also thinking. to me in present time i even cannot think about to use bitcoin. i am only going to hold it for the price increase. because it is expected that in next few months the price of bitcoin will increase so high. i think that it will even cross the 1200 USD level.

Majority of users are hoping that price by the end of the year and that is the reason they are holding it and not spending it to earn higher profits.

You are right with and that is what I'm hoping for. Hoping that the price of bitcoin before the end of the year is going to be at $800-$1,000. And if that happens that 10 bitcoins for sure is going to be big bucks at all. And after holding it, I'm going to convert it to fiat very fast.

$1200/btc is impossible to reach this year i guess since bitcoins price is stable for now $680+ mark. Who knows it might increase its price drastically that would possibly reach that mark then many of us would be happy specially to those holder of such big amount of bitcoins in their wallet.
9395  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: WHAT CAN I DO WITH 0.1 BTC ?? on: July 23, 2016, 07:31:18 AM
To be honest 0.1 btc is not too high amount but still you can invest it in trading, and if luck favors you then you would be able to grow your coins in long run.


Trading is not so much about luck, but paying careful attention to the charts, gathering information and taking calculated risks. The potential for growth is high.

Exactly, trading could be risky if you dont have knowledge about it it may lose all your coins in a single trade. Luck comes  in on a trade if you made a right decision either you buy or sell a such coin on a right time, as he suggested paying attention to charts and information could make the potential for growth would have a higher chance.
9396  Other / Politics & Society / Re: what is your position in society? on: July 23, 2016, 07:25:52 AM
I mean like what is your class?

I consider myself belongs to the lowest class because i didnt even finished my studies and now im in  my mothers house facing in front a computer and searching everyday for a good possible source of income thats why im here coz i earned bitcoin in joining signature campaigns. Its okay thats life. Grin
9397  Other / Off-topic / Re: How to motivate women to use Bitcoin? on: July 23, 2016, 07:12:54 AM
Just thought about something... make her a wallet, send her $250 and show her how easy it is to buy clothes & make-up with BTC.

She'll love BTC, trust me Cheesy
you are right and i think it good idea if you want to motivate women to use bitcoin , first you prove about the bitcoin and show her how to use it easily for online shopping  clothes and makeup stuff then i also sure they will also use the bitcoin .

That would be a good idea of convincing them to learn bitcoin unless those services are available in your country then it would be great. Some of countries offer those services like direct buying clothes unto stores  and any other wants of a women, dont know in other specially in 3rd world countries which is  very hard to adopt bitcoin because they are usually behind in technology stuff stuff.
but i personally hate women and that will be really a big problem for me to convince women. actually most of the women do not like to admit that they are less intelligent than men and they have  more knowledge than me. and other thing is that they never admiit their fault.

Thats one of the characteristics of a women that i do also really hate. Theyre fighting their right even its obviously wrong to anyone. They dont like complicate things and they like to do easy things in their life  they also dont like hassle thats why i didnt introduce bitcoin to my wife cause i know what she will answer if i tried to do so. Its a big "NO".
9398  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Will my method be a good steady income? on: July 23, 2016, 07:08:43 AM
~Snip~
With an profit of around 430 Satoshi per 1000 rolls(tried it myself, have lost almost everything while trying Grin ), and assuming that each rolls take 2 seconds, it is approx. 700-800 Satoshi per hour.
~Snip~


If you look at it, this shouldn't be such a hassle on OP because as he stated, his laptop is always ON. But doing the calculations, you would earn roughly 1$ per week. Is 1$ more than what you'll pay for making your laptop ON all the time? I hardly think so. Electricity is expensive in majority of countries.

700-800 satoshi per hour? You might want to just solve a captcha in any faucet site. 1000 satoshi/hour is the average reward for doing faucet. I think this is much better than keeping freebitco.in tab on your browser.

You might want to think of other ways of earning as well. 10$ per month is so little tbh. Also, drop the martingale thing. There's a possibility that your allocated losing streak will be surpassed in the long run, making you lose all your hardly earned money.

Those earnings would be even  of the cost of electricity he consumed  Grin so in short its a total waste of time. Im not discouraging the OP but he had a very terrible stragedy income add on the martingale as you said, those are pointless techniques youll still lose in the end. your 1 month earning $10 would gone in a blink of an eye then youll better start crying. Cry
9399  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How greedy you are ? on: July 23, 2016, 07:01:12 AM
I think that being a bit greedy is good because those people save there money the easiest way because they do not want to lose there money.
Sometimes I also have does day where I am like why I am spending so much money so after that I go in my greedy mode for a bit.
yes that is right to say. and to me i think every person must be greedy up to some extent. but people are not ready to accept it. i think every person want to make money. and that is the first proof of greediness.
Being greedy is alright but never be greedy in gambling because it is not good to practice it when your chances to win is very less. You can be greedy in investment, in your jobs so you will be encourage to work hard and earn more.
I am disagree, i think greedy in every life sector is not good, greedy can lead to many devastating things, some people can do everything because of the greed, the one that you can make you work hard and earn more is motivation not greed , and greedy in gambling is the worst because in gambling you will eventually lost
Never use our greed in gambling because the gambling sites are also greedy, in the end you will still lose because the odds favors them. We should focus our play to gamble for fun only and never expect to bag huge money from gambling.
the fact that all gamblers are always greedy, because they think they can earn a lot of money quickly.
including myself, who always play greedy. but really it does not mean anything, and did not have good results.
so play for fun and just get some benefits that are not too large it may be better.
Even if you just play for fun, it cannot prevent you to think of money also. Who does not want money anyway? Money can give us great comfort in life that is why we love to have as many of it but some gamblers are stupid to think they can make it in gambling.

Right, even we are saying we do gambling just for fun we cant hide to ourselves the motive or target to gain more profit is there always. Big amount or small amount would hurt us in the long run. I agree to what they say, people loves money and yes thats the reality. whos the one who doesnt love money eh? No one since money is one of the most important in this world.

Right now i am earning close to 0.01btc per weak with my signature campaign but i just dont know what to do with them.I want to grow them and reach a good amount of btc but only collecting will take a long time to reach a good amount.So i start to gamble with them and till now since 3-4 weaks i have lost all my signature campaing earnings.I win at the start but i become greedy and gamble more and then lost them.
So i decided not to gamble with them can any one tell me what are the other options which i can do with my earnings.

Thats a sad thing what happen to your earning on signature campaign. Its hard to earn those bitcoin and you let them lose in gambling in a fast way. Gambling is not good  if youre planning to make your bitcoins grow, if youre lucky enough then it would grow a decent amount but if doesnt then say goodbye to hard earned coins. Just try to save again your earnings and invest on trading maybe theres a chance on making such profit.
