9441  Economy / Economics / Re: The dream of getting rich with bitcoins on: November 28, 2016, 11:14:32 AM
Maybe not to get rich, but sure as hell to earn a decent amount of money with bitcoins.

How much money did you earn with bitcoins? Or did you lose some?

Not actually getting rich but I'm getting decent amount from trading altcoins and mining some coins,actually I lose track on how many bitcoin I earned in the past two years ,but bitcoin made my life much  easier than when I'm still do not know how to use a computer.

Me either I don't think that I will be able to become rich with bitcoin. But I am just aiming to get some decent profit or acceptable that can be good.

Because earning with bitcoin is just my part time and I don't get too much of my time with it because I have some other things to work to.

But let's see if one day will change my mind that bitcoin will give me a way to become rich, what I just do is hold some of my bitcoins while collecting.
Why not dream high at least when you cannot achieve it, you still on your way on making great profit. I make it a point to consider bitcoin as my inspiration to become rich because it drives me to work hard for my dreams and be positive despite of the trials in life.

There is no problem if we will dream higher than the normal expectation. But there are a lot of inspiring stories in bitcoin that made me keep on believing in bitcoin that it can make someone rich but that is also depending on your capacity. If you can have high investment to spent with bitcoin then you have possible chance to become richer, that's why rich people are becoming rich.
Correct we do not limit our dreams, me i have dreams that i can get a house in bitcoin someday that is why i always here continuous collecting bitcoin as many as i could for my dreams to be come true.
i think we should be realistic and not to be idealistic, dreaming high cannot make you rich you must take some practical step if you want to become succeeded in your life,
It's not bad to dream big and yeah we have to be realistic in real life. Getting rich will not take overnight unless you won the jackpot in a lottery. But for us we really need to push our limits to work harder and invest more so in the future we will receive a good amount of money.
Well it has to start somewhere though. Dreaming to be rich is going to be a foundation so you have your motivation in whatever you do. And it is actually possible with bitcoin. I've read a couple of posts saying that they started when they set up a goal of earning 100 btcs in 5years. Some already earned half that in around a year or two. So it is possible you just have to work for it.
9442  Economy / Economics / Re: What percentage of people on Earth will own Bitcoin by 2020 on: November 28, 2016, 11:01:52 AM
I think that it will be slightly greater than 2% just because of the law of increasing returns, ;p if you have 100 people each tell one person thats 100 if those people tell one more person and etc.
But you must understand there are also limitations to that especially because bitcoin can be difficult to people to accept, for example I have been unable to get a single one of my friends to open a bitcoin wallet and to use bitcoin, and I have some who are avid gamers and could have benefited by the cheaper prices on games given in the forum,
Yeah i think that would also be a major factor. Having people educated about the benefits of bitcoin. Even here where i am, people are a bit pessimistic when i tell them about bitcoin basically because it's the first time they've heard about it. For sure by 2020, more people would have heard or known bitcoin but then there's also the factor of online accessibilty. A large percentage of people around the world still doesn't have or very limited internet access. So yeah for me 5% would already be a big amount for people who OWN bitcoin by 2020
9443  Economy / Economics / Re: what your plan for future ? and how to manage your time ? on: November 28, 2016, 10:50:53 AM
hello Im sure every one have "plan" for future
and please share what do you do to manage your time? to get your dream ?


i have dream to have 100BTC at 5year, but it's very hard to realize it


~Elyas772~

Well i think the first thing you have to do here would be to have a goal set up and good for you you already one in mind. I think 100btc is possible in 5 years if you really work for it because really there is money in bitcoin. You just have to really plan on how to do it. For me, well i dont really have a specific amount in mind but i am planning to make bitcoin as one of my major source of income next year. Currently im studying day trading and where to better invest my bitcoins for maximum return. I think it's possible to have bitcoin as my bread and butter in the future
9444  Economy / Economics / Re: Why have Bitcoin instead of cash? on: November 28, 2016, 10:38:32 AM
For now i see the advamtages of bitcoin investment than cash we need to take it to earn lots of money because bitcoin value is very strong it can helps.us to get rich if we put big investment in bitcoin.
I would not say that this will make us rich, but I believe that, although it's not something easy to do, it's possible to make big profits from it.

In order for that to happen, the investor has to strive to understand the cryptocurrency space, to make good market projections, trying to identify the possibilities with an acceptable risk-reward ratio.

Quite true mate.. we need to work if we really want to make rich using our bitcoins and that wolill take a lot o work and time to spent as well to do it. So that's why it is also important that you'rexnot only relying in bitcoin but also having another job or any means of getting extra income.

Well that right. Bitcoin i think is better for investments as prices go up pretty often than when you invest on cash. But for now, cash is more important in the real world as that is what we use for daily consumption. And third comment would be correct as well for me as for investing to have better results we need to have a pretty decent capital. So aside from being well educated in bitcoin, i think its also important that you have another more secured source of income
9445  Economy / Economics / Re: Will governments create their own cryptocurrency that will replace fiat? on: November 28, 2016, 10:32:19 AM
In the next 100 years, do you think Governments will create their own cryptocurrency or digital currency that will replace fiat currency, i.e. coins, paper money, the paper dollar,  etc.?

If it does happen, will it be like bitcoin or will it still represent gold like how today's money works?

Well fir me it depends on how available being online is for a specific country. Its very likely that things will be very different in 100 years and most likely majority of transactions can be done online but for me governments would still be using fiat. Also, they may be creating their own crypto but not to replace their country's currency but as a support or for alternative use. Although 100 years is a very very long tine from now so we really would never know
9446  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin can not replace fiat on: November 28, 2016, 10:24:41 AM
I see bitcoin and fiat to be the perfect compliments of each other as the can be used interchangeably whenever we want to cut down on fees when trying to make a transaction so both will co-exist
yeah , and also there is another reason to not to replace fiat is use of fiat in real world .
Because the fiat and Bitcoin ( online ) are useful but fiat works as a important role in practical world and in practical world everyone looking for fiat only so it is about not possibly to replace fiat by Bitcoin .
Indeed. I like the term compliment each other. Bitcoin as we know only exists in the digital world so thinking of it as a replacement to real money is a bit off as people need real money for everyday expenses. Although it makes things really easy and convenient for online transactions so i also think there needs to be a replacement as bitcoin will be another option for people's convenience
9447  Economy / Economics / Re: Do You Think Bitcoin Will Replace Dollar Soon? on: November 28, 2016, 10:18:15 AM
i think its hard for bitcoin to replace dollar soon because we all know that bitcoin is still young for now, beside that we know the dollar history and its need many thing if bitcoin want to replace dollar and i don't think its could be happen in 5 years until 10 years especially bitcoin is in 7 years from first launching. so maybe not so soon enough but if we can see the number of people which using bitcoin is growing from time to time, then it could be happen for someday.

I think you are right. Bitcoin is to hardly too replaced dollar. The dollar is international currency and a dollar was accepted in All the world. I think if you say someday it can happen but don't know when surely. I hope bitcoin does not disappear although not replaced a dollar.

Well good for us of that wpuld happen since we're right now enjoying the benefits of bitcoin although as both of you've said, it would be fatfetched that bitcoin can replace any fiat currency anytime soon. Too many factors to consider. There's a possibility but i don't think we'd be able to see it happen in our lifetime
9448  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UFC 206: Cormier vs Johnson 2 Prediction and Info Thread on: November 25, 2016, 01:11:50 PM
No McGregor bullshit this time, percect. Just pure fight not marketing.
do you still think Mcgregor is still talk after seeing the performance at UFC 205 if so you are just a dump fool . Conor Mcgregor is real as it gets and he is probably the best fighter in the world .

That is why I love Conor McGregor we walk the talk itself, he already proved at UFC 205 and dominated New York. I am looking forward also for his fight if he is going to challenge himself at welterweight or defend his belt. In my opinion, I would like to defend his belt at least once  Roll Eyes

For the upcoming UFC 206 this will be massive looking forward to Ronda Rousey for her comeback against Amanda Nunes. Especially the fight of Daniel Cormier vs Anthony Johnson 2. This will be awesome. Waiting for the poster. 
Well concerning connor, i think he's already proven that he can live up to every inch of the hype. Lets face it, he guy is that good. Though i still think there should be a mcgregor-aldo 2. Now my bets on rumble this time. I don't know what happened to him the last fight but i think we'll see something different this time.
9449  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you believe that win in gambling is depending on your luck ? on: November 25, 2016, 01:06:26 PM
None of the people who can find out about gambling, opportunities won and lost as same. So if we win it's only because of luck, there will never be an ability and the analysis in terms of gambling. Are you still gambing?
Not all gambling depends on luck, there are some gamble games use by skill. Yeah you may sound right because almost here believes that gambling depends on luck as we see it on the result of the poll.
Well in a way, even those games that doesn't entirely rely on luck is still influenced by it. Take poker for example, even if you are so much experienced already there is still a chance that your opponent may get all the good hands so it wont really matter if you have a superior style. Although that's not the case most of the time for poker, still goes to show that luck can still alter the results regardless of experience and skill
9450  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To Gamble or To Invest? on: November 25, 2016, 01:02:15 PM
Gamble a little and invest bigger. Make gambling just a fun moment and dont let it succumb you. Investing is far more better than that easy money with gambling which also offers easy way to being broke.

I also like investing and i have a long history of investing in btc. There are investment that really go way bad and i lost everything. I also have tried investing and it prove that the result is actually quite impressive.
Well that's why you have to study and research thoroughly first where you'll be investing your money because if you invest in something that you have no idea with, its the same as gambling already. I've also made quite an amount investing in altcoins though it takes a bit of time. The difference with gambling though is that investing can give you a clear picture about what you're going to get if you prepare for it while in gambling theres no assurance in whatever you do
9451  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Gambling vs Real Gambling on: November 25, 2016, 12:56:16 PM
the feeling of real gambling cant be beating in more eyes the buzz you get when you get the cash back in your hands feels great. when you online it can feel like you just playing for fun.

Real gambling can be very satisfying if you have real cash every time you win. However for online gambling, there are chances that you win big. So you can win a few btc and you will be equally as thrill cause a few btc is worth thousand of dollars which in real life is extremely high to get.

Yeah also it would be safer for online gambling if you win bigtime compared to when you're in a casino. It maybe a bit dangerous when you cash out on a big win with so many people around.
9452  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What you like when gambling alone/ with your friend? on: November 25, 2016, 12:52:22 PM
I like playing gambling when im alone but i still prefer to gambling with my friends. because it can be our bonding when we are stressed in office and like the other said its not boring to play alone but it would be more exciting if you and your friends are both winning in gambling and together losing money haha. after playing gambling with friends we're gonna grab a drink so we can release our stress successfully.

When it comes to bonding time, gambling is good with your friends but if you are aiming for something profitable and you think that it can't be done successfully with your friends, then just gamble alone. Because I'm thinking that way and its harder to gamble if you are with your friends which is probably going to be an headache for you.
Well healthy gambling anyways would be about enjoying and having fun so i think gambling with friends would be a bit better. Also, that way you'll have someone who would tell you or influence you to stop when you're already going beyond your means. Your emotions can easily get the better of you when you gamble with just yourself
9453  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling problem on: November 25, 2016, 11:20:55 AM
The real problem in gambling is we don't limiting our self to gambled our money and letting our self to be addictive in to gambling site's for me settting a goal in gambling or not chasing our losses is just a example that you can really dicipline your self controling your self to not in gambling everyday.

That is where problem is entering into a gambler when he is setting goal as he gambles. Thinking that he can be a very rich person very fast if he will do gambling. Most of the people who are earning jackpots in gambling sites are the people who have the most bankroll as they play. An addicted gambler will not control himself if he has a goal like I said.
Setting goal in gambling is not a problem and if you guy's know how to stop playing when you win and if you lose then stop too there are no chance that you can get back your lost money and the more you lose money the more you get greed in gambling and very fast to lose money.
Yeah i dont think it's a very good idea as well. I mean i think anyone who starts to gamble already has a goal in mind be it small or big earnings. Its just that it would be very hard to stop once you're already there even if you know that not hitting that goal is inevitable. As you play, there will be times when you may lose control of your emotions. Of course there are people who have enough self control to do that but in general i think this is the problem, knowing when and forcing yourself that its enough gambling already
9454  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can I use my small amount for GAMBLING? on: November 25, 2016, 11:14:16 AM
Yes you can use your small amount for gambling right now i just grown my bitcoin 0.001 into 0.1 this is from satoshigames and i was lucky today i don't expect that i will win this big amount i just want to waste my time in gambling and trippin my 0.001 bitcoin and then i make it turn into big one.

9455  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Drug free in the Philippines on: November 25, 2016, 08:59:03 AM
The President of the Philippines is trying to establish strict dictatorial regime. I think that this will not lead to the fact that something happens. I think that soon there will be civil war.

It's far from what you think. Actually very far. There are no restrictions in the Philippines except illegalities which is actually annoying and intolerable. If you try to update Philippine news both from media (usually anti regime) and social media you can see some people are even trying to pull Duterte down. Rallies are permitted and even those bullshit bias media were not even warned or at least regulated. There will be no civil war unless the west will try harder and ready to spend billions of dollars to unseat Duterte. Umm civil war may happen if Duterte gets removed thru coup d'etat because he's got the people's support.   


If people extrajudicially killed, I doubt very much that such a regime is very popular among the population. As soon as someone will give all dissatisfied, then the situation may escalate into a civil war.

I do not think that the new government allow it. Yes, the situation is complicated, but in fact under control. Without such radical measures is not possible to change the old world and build a new

Yeah i think the government is quietly in control over whats happening in the ph. Majority of the people are still in full support of their president and i agree that civil war may break out only if the president is forcibly removed from office

The say that every US President knows whether aliens exist or not.

you think trump will tell us as the first president if there are Aliens if there are really any??



Well if there is a president who has the characteristics to disclose that kind of information, it's trump. It's not impossible that the government is keeping something from the public concerning aliens.
9457  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you believe in god? on: November 25, 2016, 08:54:17 AM
Ofcourse i believe in God.
God is the reason why im still here creating a posts here everyday.
To see is to believe that is the common answer when i interviewed  a non believers.
But when i said " did you see your breath, your mind or your feelings? ". They were stunned.
I don't believe in God. More recently I see more and more how people who promote faith in God fall into such scandals even scary to imagine. This suggests that they do not believe in God.

That's because the devil already has you. He doesn't need to tempt you into unbelief.

The devil is after those he doesn't have. So he tempts them a lot more.

Just because a Christian is involved in some scandal, doesn't mean he is not saved. Being a Christian is being forgiven... as long as he doesn't go so far as to deny God because of the scandal.

Of course, those involved in atheism are involved in one of the devil's biggest scandals.

Cool
How can you believe in what is not? Moreover, look at Catholic priests. Constantly there are scandals with not traditional orientation and pedophilia. Or former employee of the KGB Patriarch Kirill. Once they don't fear God it means it is not.
Well i dont think the actions of priests or any other people would determine if there really is a god or not. People are solely responsible for the things they do. If people will do something evil, it doesnt matter what they believe in or not as they will still do whatever they want.

I have about 70% faith in him to do the right thing for all.

Yeah i think so as well. Its becoming a bit scary with the situation with russia prior to trump being elected and i think the election of trump pushed us a bit farther away from war. Hopefully this continues and though i didn't vote for him, i trust he knows what to do
9459  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Should the United Nations send inspectors to America to help Indians on: November 25, 2016, 08:44:41 AM
Obama did it for the blavks

Obama has done absolutely nothing for blacks, he only played the race card when it was election time. America is more racially divided than it has been for decades. We have basically been set back to the 60's.

I will agree with you on that. Obama was a puppet of the Clinton crime family and Soros. He couldn't do anything for the African Americans, because he was too busy playing golf. Right now, the blacks are much worse off than they were in 1992.

Well it can be observed that the situation with black people didn't go well in obama's 8 hear term. This goes as well with the indians. I think the u.n needs to interfere already. Look at whats happening in standing rock. It seems that there is very little respect being given to the indians there and there should already be intervention

Some country are getting saturate to use paper money,  its value is decrease eveytime becouse of inflation. I think people in the future will choose another thing to be a currency.
I agree but i don't think it would be with this generation. I don't think some countries are ready to move on to a different type of currency especially third world countries. There may be other forms of currency that may come up in the future but i think we would still be using paper money for quite a long time
