9481  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Would you buy a hardware wallet? on: September 24, 2016, 03:28:09 AM
I dont like to put all of my coins into a wallet so i dont think i would buy a hardware wallet and that is just because i know how bad the security of the wallets are.

I disagree that the security of the bitcoin wallet providers online has bad security at all. Do you think blockchain has a bad security? I guess you are just putting out a statement without basis but I can't blame you if you think that online wallets does have poor security. For me, I won't go to buy hardware wallet it is just going to cost me another bucks.

You are right the blockchain as a example has a good security but it stays a  online wallet, who knows what will happen.
With a paper wallet you are safe from hackers, a hardware wallet is okay but I would never buy it.

in my opinion it is more secure and easy to use blokchain wallet, I suggest enable all existing security to avoid incidents that we do not want
yeah they're having security features to prevent hacker,but the thing since they're an online wallet service,then if they turn out to scam thousands of people because this service is actually owned by someone then what you can do? don't expect the security features would prevent it
even though i don't think they wanna do it because they're just a popular service and wasting the popularity such a useless thing

Yes, the possibility of  being hacked or stolen funds are there since its own by someone and have access on each of the accounts being created  no matter what security feature you activated on it. but  in  blockchain.info its impossible to happen in fact  they are one of the most commonly used  online wallet as of now.

They wouldnt  destroy their reputation  just  on a penny hacking coins on  their members account. Blockchain is  famous and almost  bitcoin users  does use this  online wallet for their transactions. It not possible  that they  would commit such act for sure. Blockchain does have  strong security  i could  recommend it  to others but if you do hold large amounts of bitcoin then  it better to  buy  hardware wallet in my own opinion because  its somehow safe.
9482  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin rising to 600$ , pure manipulation ? on: September 24, 2016, 03:24:08 AM
If this is not pure manipulation then I don't know what it is , how do you guys explain decreasing back to 599$ in a few hours ?
I'm sure It has nothing to do with Bitfinex as that exchange is pretty much dead for what comes to the trading volume (compared to the old trading volume they had), everyone switched to Poloniex => https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/volume/24-hour/

Its indeed no manipulation some people are just trying some theories but its just all bullshit if you are asking me.


I believe  the same thing too that there no manipulation involved here those are  just some nonsense  theories, Bitcoins price does normally moves it price up and down because of circumstances that is happening  in bitcoin  ecosystem. Just  like on what we  saw on bitfinex hack it did decrease  bitcoins price because  those  hacked bitcoins are being sold on cheap price  then  after that  incident  price of  bitcoins  start to rise up gradually because people  do  purchase  bitcoin in cheaper price.
9483  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why bitcoin rate is stable since june 2016 on: September 24, 2016, 03:17:30 AM
Can you please tell in brief that why bitcoin rate is stuck at around $600. I am confused wether to buy bitcoin or sell. I am very conscious about its future. So please stamp your own views here.

Bitcoins price is  never been stable since its moving, you could assume that its stable because  its playing around these price brackets.  In  my own view on  bitcoin price stabilize because there are no sellers and there no buyers and traders  does only  minimal trades  on bitcoin. I assume that  most people   just  holding their bitcoin and waiting for  the price increase but theres nothing to worry since  bitcoins adoption is unstoppable  and  for sure  people would  invest into bitcoin.

In my opinion most of the channels that are open for earning some money with bitcoin, earning from faucets, especially with the now low rates, can be a very frustrating way to earn. Perhaps trading is the best option, despite the risk.

faucet is very low earning if we compared with the current rate, but in future if bitcoin price rising to $1000, i think 1000sat is a good amount for solving 1 captha Roll Eyes


Agree, faucets  do  give only small amount because owners does  make   adjustments  depending on the bitcoins price. As you said   it would increase $1000/btc then for sure those  faucets owners would  decrease their  rate per captcha solve since  they matter on bitcoins price.  Faucets  are just a waste of time for me , its better  to  join in signature campaigns than to waste my time  om solving captchas Tongue .. Theres a lot of ways  in fact to earn bitcoin here in online world.
9485  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin or gold? on: September 24, 2016, 03:06:05 AM
Many people pick both bitcoin and gold, and me too. Both are good and why not pick both if you can pick both. Using bitcoin for investment and currency, for gold, using gold for long term investment, good combination right.
Both are really good, but let us be realistic here, majority of us here does not have the capacity to invest in gold because we are not born rich and that's why we are here because we are hoping that bitcoin can give us fortune, so in short we are only capable on investing with bitcoin.

You are right,  majority of us  doesnt have the capability to invest into  gold since as we all know that  gold is expensive and we  couldnt afford  to buy  huge or bulks amounts of it. In fact in bitcoin we could able to buy small amounts. Regarding in  price increase they both increase its price but in bitcoin does  have an edge since  price movements is seen almost everytime unlike on gold which  its value moves a little  in a period of time.
9486  Other / Off-topic / Re: What will you do if you own 21 BTC? on: September 24, 2016, 03:02:28 AM
There are two scenarios:

1) You hold the 21 BTC for a long period and retire as a millionaire. This is the safe, but long term (10 to 20 years) target.

2) You start taking high risks on the altcoin market and become an overnight millionaire or lose your ticked to guaranteed riches in those 10-20 years

Thought call.

Scenario 1 is good but doing some simple math gives you 1million/21BTC = 47617.04 dollars per bitcoin, that is an increase of almost 80 times at a bitcoin price of 600 dollars, in my opinion this is too much of an increment, but that is just me

why? bitcoin price is slowly going up, who knows what it's price will be in 10 or 15 years. I'd say thats not so far from his post. I'm expcting bitcoin to be a lot more than about 600$ as it is now. I'm seeing somewhere between 40k-50k per btc in about 15-20 years, maybe a spike in price but still.
Considering a lot of factors and implementing about 40 000 - 50 000 it's too highly target and especially considering the bitcoin situation in this time, okay everything is can happened in the future but we don't forget for putting the realistic reason for that.

True, 40k-50k seems to unrealistic to achieve since as we saw on the  price of bitcoin as of now there are so many factors does affect its price it may go down sometimes and rise  up sometimes but  it doesnt guarantee us  that it would suddenly  reach that amount anytime soon. Some  speculation are  too much to consider. Well,  we really cant predict on the price of bitcoin since we dont  know what would  be the things that would happen in near future.

I dont know if OP is really serious about this,offering something without any explanation how much we got paid. your already thier why you don't answering any questions here.

Im thinking the same thing too which OP  seems  not serious regarding  with this matter since he  just  post  only  about the  job and  also the payrates were decent enough  that would able to attract  potential members  but  same as you said   op doesnt even have time to answer all the question and queries regarding  on the said project that he  proposes which is  somehow  considered as trolling for me. In fact he doesnt even show  on the funds  that  would be used to pay for the workers.
9488  Other / Off-topic / Re: If i give you 10 BTC what will you do? on: September 24, 2016, 02:45:39 AM
I would hold part of it, but I should also invest. There are currently, in the cryptocurrency market, projects related to blockchain as a service and blockchain applications, with potential to grow in the long-term and that I think worth some investment.
Holding is nice idea and part of earning bitcoin but you should invest that while waiting to increase the price of bitcoin and you can use trading also and do not depends on the investment where you could lose your money with investment .
Investing it into questionable investment is risky you have the more risk you are taking rather than the result you are anticipating. My advise for you is that You hold all of it until the price of Bitcoin one day get comfortable for you to sell, you may need not to worry about the price going down now as it is steady as of the moment.
That sounds safe but if you want some action you will only spend or use a certain percentage of that total btc in short term investment, trading, or even in gambling investing related, when we do that we will be able to learn and we will be active in the community.

This is much better that we must  get a portion of  our  total money to invest on short terms so that we would able to learn new things and  also we could able to grow somehow our  money even in small amounts atleast it grows and not on idle at all.  Holding  bitcoin would be  a good ide if you dont know any investments  that you are knowledgable  its better not to risk at all since you wont know  what would  you must do which results  high risk on  lossing all your money.
9489  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: how to earn btc fast on: September 24, 2016, 01:56:03 AM
i found this new coin fissioncoin, and i want to invest in the automatic mining there but the minimum deposit is 100 coins which is about 0.002 btc does anyone know a quick way to earn that much.

I already tried  this site which does have solo mining features but one thing  i noticed with this site is which  you need to deposit first before   you could able to withdraw which is  somehow suspicious for me, looks like  a ponzi scheme since fission coin isnt listed  on any exchange sites ive tried  to find one  but i failed. Some people  claimed that they are earning  there but they already made  huge deposit of  bitcoin on their site.  Earning btc in a fast way seem not possible .
9490  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How to make money on bitcointalk? on: September 24, 2016, 01:50:38 AM
I am earning on bitcointalk with signature campaign and many others here so that is the most common method of earning bitcoin in bitcointalk.Right now i am just a student and learning web designing may be after that i will also provide my services in this forum in services section and could earn even some extra amount of bitcoins.

Yup signature campaign is the best way to earn bitcoins and it is taking best care of our pocket money and now we don't need to depend on our parents for our basic expenses.

I agree with this , signature campaigns earnings somehow help us  on our  expenses on school and  other things which we could not  depend  already to our parents  on small things which is big help and we must be thankful to bitcoin. In fact  we could  make money here in this forum  on many ways not only on sig campaigns but also if we have skills to offer then it would be a good source of  income too just  go to services section and we could also sell stuff here.
9491  Economy / Economics / Re: How to save money. on: September 23, 2016, 05:31:50 AM
I think its easy to save up some money, just put a certain amount every month into another bank account and do this every time.
You are on that way saving money on an easy way.

Easy? Then the problem about saving money should be exist today.

Remember that to save money, you must have a source of it. Not just a source but it must give you enough earnings. You can't save more if people's earnings are just enough to support their daily livings.
But we need to control our expenses as well because we have a chance to increase our earnings but if we also improve our lifestyle we will be spending more than we used to. I think we need to be discipline and have focus on savings.

Cutting  up excessive spending's  would surely  contribute to  make  more saving because  you could able to  budget and put in bank and  do this thing for  long term  then for sure you would benefited in future in emergency purposes and  in  future  investments. You would  able  to  maximize   your savings if you  do  some investment because   of diversifying  your money  into other things would potentially give  you more money.
9492  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling loses and wins on: September 23, 2016, 05:22:35 AM
So.... how much have you win or loss gambling ?? And what did you stake ?
I've lost about $60 so far but im planning to win it back. Pigs get fat and hogs get slaughtered.
A saying well said, however i still need to learn it since my greed is my downfall. Guys and girls
how much money have you made or lost gambling ? Any pointers or warnings ? 
It is typical gambler's behavior, when you lost money once all you want to do is recover your loss. It is called sunk cost fallacy.
You just don't want to "waste" money you already spent on the game. Usually it causes you to lost even more money and create spiral of debt/losing streak.
Because when we do that we are not already analyzing the game, instead we are letting our emotion to dictate us and would decide on doing such things, based on my experience, every time I chase my best it mostly ended up me losing more money.

So, I would say, control is really important to last in the game.

Its really  easy to say control your self   in playing gambling which  almost of us here says the same thing but in  reality, especially when we are  in the middle of the game its so really hard to control yourself  especially when  your emotion  tries to  control  your mind which causes for you to do  wrong  decision which  you intend to bet without control then  lose even more and also you would surely  deposit  again to recover your losses . It really depends on us   on how we treat  gambling and  how we control our emotions.
9493  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be considered as a Sickness!! on: September 23, 2016, 05:19:19 AM
Nope, gambling  can't be a sickness at all lol. At the first place it is made for people to enjoy and release some stress the problem there if you do not gamble for moderation then you really are sick
Those people who think gambling is a money making a machine for them gambling should be considered as sickness. But those who play gambling just for fun and entertainment they will get relief from their daily stress. I will play just for time pass, and it will give good relief to my mind.
But even the people who are playing gambling for the purpose of entertainment will get addictions after long stay with gambling, in this time we can consider gambling as a sickness even their approach was different from other people who are gambling for making income.

I like to say gambling is overall a social sickness, which affects of a social activities and personal life too.

You are treating this subject as if anyone that gambles once will get addicted to it and that is not true, you are treating gambling the same way as drugs and they are not the same.

Are there some persons that got addicted to gambling when at first they gambled for fun? Yes
Does everyone that has gambled for fun become addicted to gambling? No

They are not the same but gambling addiction is the worst thing than drugs. because if you will addicted in gambling you will lose a lot of money that can bring your self from rich to be poor so always check it and better to stay away in gambling.. or stop gambling no future in gambling.. 
Did I read that right? Gambling addiction is worse than being addicted to drugs? Although both have addiction in their names gambling addiction and drug addiction are two completely different things.


I complete agree with you  , those type of addictions  have difference  to each other although  they are considered  as the word "addiction"  but  completely different. Gambling addiction would somehow wreck your life in terms of financial and  in Drug addiction it would completely  destroys your life not only  on financial  but also it would  heavily affect your  body  and also to the  relations on your family and  in your relatives which is  really devastating. Gambling sickness is an emotion which you pursue to play gambling no matter what.
9494  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I never made any profits in dice game.. whats is your opinion on: September 23, 2016, 05:14:08 AM
Hi. I would suggest you to stop playing those dice games.
I also never had any profit from them, in fact I have lost some small amount.
This is pure gambling, designed to give profit to owners/house not to make us, users rich Smiley
Not to mention those witch are unfair or just straight fraud.

Run when you still can.
This is the only good advice you're ever going to get about these games. Or casino games. Or pretty much any type of gambling, because they are all set up mathematically to fleece you of money. You just can't win, and every gambler should know this.  You might get lucky, but if you play long enough you absolutely are going to lose.

Gambling sites are businesses  which they would definitely  create  or invest to create that site to make  profit not giving money on their players. Therefore we should expect that  we lose our money on the long run, there are some circumstances  that you may win some  because of luck but  it wouldnt last  in the long run which your winnings would lose  including your  capital for sure. I would recommend  to stay away from those dice games, if your aiming  profits with that  then its impossible thing to happen.
9495  Other / Off-topic / Re: When is it useful to borrow bitcoin? on: September 23, 2016, 05:08:15 AM
both of you right , but here i will suggest to everyone that always borrow loan at btcjam because there you can get bet offers and trusted person . here you need to beg but there you will find at you bidding .

Yeah you can get offers from trusted person but you think it's easy for those to trust you?

It's hard to build a reputable trust in that site since it has many fraud activities in their whole operation years. It's better to have some loan to the person you really know since you can modify the interest rates by chance.

Exactly, its  so hard to build trust between other people especially when it comes to money since us people  do have strict requirement on a specific person when we are  able to give him a loan or not.  Borrowing at first  would be hard  same as you said  but if you  prove  them on your legitimacy as a good payer then you would no have hard time to borrow money in near future. Others said  that we must  first borrow  to our closest  people who does make lending but lower in interest rates then its better  to approach them first.

When i first play on bustabit  i deposited 100,000 bits  and  i set my multiplier at 2.0x @ 5k bits  per  bet which  somehow last  long time  . As i observe on this game which it doesnt require any skills  but  pure luck as  just stated on their site 1% skill 99% luck. In my first game i do benefited from it since my 100k  become  250k when i set all in on 50000 on  5x multiplier which somehow lucky on that day but it only last for a day since when i play again  on other day my 100k  does  lost in a matter of  minutes i guess.
9497  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Doubling Bitcoin? on: September 23, 2016, 04:02:42 AM
I think there is no such site that makes bitcoin double, yes there may be some sites that gives bitcoin but after a interval of time they well definitely stop paying Bexar they can't provide bitcoin from there own pocket.
And that sites  a commonly called  doublers which is  definitely a HYIP and i wont recommend these such things  because  they are total scam and  in reality  people does usually fall on these kind of schemes  because  they are always believing that they could possibly double their money in no time but  they dont realize on the thing how those doublers do make profits with this kind of  business which does have a system  of ponzi , paying their old investor with the money of  newly  participated  members which is not a sustainable thing  in the long run.
9498  Other / Off-topic / Re: How many people here don't really care about BTC? on: September 23, 2016, 03:56:30 AM
That would be crazy for someone to stay here in bitcointalk and yet don't really care about bitcoin. he should have move elsewhere if thats the case.
but its possible to actually be here without even the knowledge about bitcoin particularly those who are just here to spam, the should don't even care what bitcoin is.

They will keep on spamming as they are earning from their campaign and I think their campaign manager should take care of that as I think signature campaign is the easiest way to earn bitcoins.

Well if they keep spamming  because  of post  qouta on their signature campaign then  they definitely care about bitcoin since they are still pursuing to earn it. If they dont really care then they might not register  and join in signature campaigns at all. All people on these forum  do care  about bitcoin for sure  not  only on opportunity on earning money but also we are here   in able to learn more on thing regarding bitcoin and other things  related to crypto currency which really helps a lot.
9499  Economy / Speculation / Re: bitcoin price will be fail to bottom line ? on: September 23, 2016, 03:45:51 AM
Most of the times its indeed going to lower and than go to a high amount, it has been done a lot these days...
I also think that if the bitcoin will fall it always will go back up again after some time.

As we  can observe on bitcoin price nowadays its more on lowering its price same as you said but for sure traders  would see this as an opportunity and other investors thats why they would definitely buy again  on cheaper price which could  cause  for bitcoins price  to rise up again. It just  natter  of  supply and demand though. It may fall its price but not in the bottom  because    bitcoin is already established  its price which is not possible  to go back to the price where it was before.
