Yup, it depends upon the currency rate of country and bitcoin exchange rate. According to the growth rate of bitcoin as compare to economical rate of any country bitcoin rate is much greater which can make you a millionaire quicker than you will imagine. I think, in next 2 year bitcoin growth will rate exceed up to greater levels then no need to wait for 5 years working, you will be millionaire in just 2 year if you will be continuously working for bitcoins.

No one ever can sure about it. Because inflation of fiat might make cost of living into 10X times too. No one can predict even 10 million USD also will be enough for next generations as US dollars also might lose its buying power.

Indeed, working hard to try and get more money is not enough because like said a janitor will always be a janitor no matter how hard he works, you always have to work hard in order to achieve something and progress like work hard to get money so you can get better education so you can find a better job that pays more money and that applies to bitcoin as well.

Smarter works will fetch more reward than how harder we are putting our efforts in some worthless fields, for example faucets. At the same time if we work on select faucets with some good number of referrals then we can find the rewards for our efforts and this explains how smart work is better.

But we have to accept the fact that majority of people are playing gambling for making money and if we examine we can see that that in casinos the number of poor people is more than the number of rich people and all of them are here to make money and to become rich. Most of the newbies still they have the intention to make money then they obviously choose gambling for achieving their target of becoming QUICK RICH.

The humiliating true is even the experienced gamblers also keep trying gambling for same intentions. But gambling never let them reaching their target. They eventually become QUICK POOR in no time.

Actually there are some casinos where the owner can provide more good gambling facilities while in some are casino owners are not so good financially and therefore they are not providing such facilities to their users and people always try to use visit such casinos where they have good facilities. People also try to choose such casino whose population is more and having good reputation.

We can simply choose casino based on their member database. If they are having large member base, then they might be maintaining high standard. The simple logic behind this is : more number of people will not choose the wrong one.

I think Australia must be feeling it hard. Because they are not use to with spin and slow pitches.
Although there will not such big turn in very start in the pitch but later one when the bitch and the ball will become rough then the Indian bowler will defiantly give tough time to Australian batsmen.

But we must also accept the fact that the Australian also has good and experienced batsmen who can perfume in any situation.

Different fortune teller have their methods for telling about people fortune, predicting about our fortune using stars while other taking the help of our palms lines. While some that the advantages of religion view. But I think there is no reality in such prediction about our luck in advance because most of the time their prediction proves as wrong.

That must be a good practice, we cannot be sure about predictions made by some people for our future. Mostly it will not work as they foretell. If they are really capable of foretelling, they would have earned by this time.

When we are ready to accept this truth, we will never go for struggling with gambling. If we accept then we will get maturity to accept what ever results that gambling will give.

When the bitcoin started we were all talking about a new currency that is going to change the whole idea of using the money on the internet, but after a couple of years the price was really high that it has become more of an investment and people saving and buying it, and the ones who believed in it a long time ago are really lucky. I am not finding any wrong with them.

We cannot argue that we should not save bitcoins as an investment. It must be a basic human right to do what ever they want to with their wealth.

But time will enforce them to start using their savings. How long one will sit and watch their saving's value goes skyrocketing. Either their basic needs nor emergency needs nor emotions will make them to come out of their investment mode.

Yes, similar to anything in this world bitcoin too have no proper price.
But one thing I want to clear you that bitcoin is such a currency which is going to up and up in price. Hence no wonder different exchange / people follow prices relatively different.

If you take example of other thing like gold it prices are being determined by traders. As world wide it is being traded, different country will have different prices for gold. Similarly bitcoin is being traded my many exchanges and based on bid ask volume bitcoin prices get determined.

In summary, any services which are having improper income generation methods and trying to circulate existing member's money to attract new people should be concluded as ponzi. When are looking at their business model, we can make this conclusion.

Unfortunately ponzis are now coming backed by a known business concepts. Cloud mining must be a good example here.

As spotting obvious ponzi has become as an easy task for everyone, now abusers are coming with covered ponzi. We can realize their actual business only after certain period of time. I am not finding any working idea to identify them other than staying away from them for some time but watching them closely.

I do see almost all VPN service providers claim themselves as best. Fortunately we are having lots of VPN providers. So, please get us any special reason (other than OP as these features are available with many providers) to join Purevpn and that too through you.

- Could you get me any additional discount for 2 years membership for bitcoin payments.
- I heard PureVPN has daily sessions limit. (sessions = disconnecting and reconnecting / switching IP location). If you are able to do any provision for over ridding it, I am very much interested to buy this services.

I do see getting a checking account is not a big deal...
- There are many online banking services like this : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1709715.0
- wb21.com is another similar services (Xapo is partnering with them for deposits for buying bitcoins)
- I remember there are people selling verified bank accounts along with pre-loaded debit cards. But need to be very careful on choosing them

Bank accounts have that option ? Do not be kidding  

Never believe into fake assumptions like only with large capital we will get good results in trading. If you're good with your technical analysis, we never need to worry about your capital amounts. Large capital always might lead to big losses, in my experience I always suggest to avoid that. It is always better to stick with small capital.

Basically across all types of trading, the unpredictable price movement will exist and will surprise you at any time. So, not just for altcoin trading, it would be highly recommended to go with small capital for all types of trading because all types tradings are really risky.

No one could ignore bitcointalk for discussion on bitcoin investment as well as for bitcoin trading. In my experience bitcointalk had helped me to choose right exchange according to my requirement. First I check on google, but I was not satisfied with the results but fortunately I found proper guidelines here.

It is not just about educating, it is more than gaining awareness and sharing opinion. Most of the only resources just give a list on how to get educating on bitcoin investments, but here people will guide us to choose a suitable options by sharing their experience.

But holding bitcoins is being classified as investment hence it is not facing the difficulty of unpredictable nature of markets. Unpredictable is a challenge only for traders not for investors, that must be the reason for performances, you have mentioned. But in contradicting strategy, to overcome the unpredictable markets, the only easy weapon must be holding for long haul.

Even holding helps to get rid of the challenges of price fluctuations, it will not be a preferable strategy for many traders as most traders are not preferring passive trading.

Active trading for a highly fluctuating market finds extra edge when we learn strategies to tackle unpredictable market movements.

Those randomness gives user the excitement while also the panic whenever the price moves up or down.
There are people offering some genuine looking services though like recently I saw in lending section about a guy taking investments for poker games.

While these services look genuine and might even profit there is no guarantee that you would be paid. In short term I feel the best way to earn bitcoins is to risk them either way you say gamble or buy altcoins. While in long term holding seems the only way as of now.

But I believe this where the profits and hence the entire success of running a faucet lying. There would be no point in choosing a faucet business without having any proper plan on attracting users. Most faucets do get their visitors for the first round and failing to keep them rechecking the faucets. At the same time, a faucet cannot pay big amount of satoshi to make the to keep on coming back. Really the management oriented decisions needed.

Other than this, the owner needs to focus on proxy checking and bot detection because fake visitors usually eat up all the funds of faucets to enforce them to dry up so quicker.

Not just time and expenses, blockchain technology will cover many other aspects of banking sector preciously security features. The efficient data management in secure way is the top layer benefits of adopting blockchain technology to be benefited by banks.

Why you are forgetting to consider the infinitely divisible feature of electronic formats ?
If you consider bitcoin's satoshi as a basic unit there would be 17 M *10^8 bitcoin units in circulation against dollars. Again we can have centi-satoshi and milli-satoshi if needed. If volume is the big consideration, I believe bitcoin is already versatile to cover up this.

The decentralization of crypto currencies emphasize that there is no need of any government approval for the success of crypto currencies. So, nothing will happen if government does not accept the same time if government come forward with your stand on crypto currency that might give some extra boost.

It can be hundred percent sure that the future of crypto currencies is not depending on government's decisions. We can have on our own kingdom so there are definite chances for crypto currency to be the future. Just save it and make money out of your investments.

You can search and have all the required information by checking on their forum https://www.cryptopia.co.nz/Forum as well as by googling. When you do not have time to search them how you can expect someone will list those for you.

More importantly, this thread was almost one month old. Probably those Cryptopia shares would have been sold out. But no update from OP yet. You can PM him about availability and also for your concerned information.

That is the only protection layer we could have to safeguard ourselves. Almost 99% of malpractices are being eliminated when we go through a trade with escrow. Your warning is good but I guess almost all the members here must be well aware of these types of scam attempts. Still having another warning would be nice to remind one more time.

Most of the times, the cheaper prices when you are trying to buy (higher prices in the case of selling ) would be quoted just to lure us. The basic common sense like "no one will act for others benefits" is the thump rule to protect ourselves here.
