You earn bitcoin the same way you earn any other money, trade your labor or goods for it. Of course, getting paid in bitcoin for work takes a little more effort and entrepreneurial spirit, but it could just be a matter of doing what you already do but offer your customers a discount if they pay you in bitcoin.

They are suffering government corruption, safety risk and virulent inflation etc.

Recently, a event of child-sex abuse happened in a kindergarten called "RYB" located in Beijing. The staffs simply showcase the children as "commodities" to their "clients", possibly involving some officials and military officers. Even worse, needle marks were found on these children's skin. Nevertheless, the press is controlled by the gov and news blackout is still enforced within the country.

All this to me is so disgusting, as I am also a Chinese. I've lost every hope to my government and convert my money to bitcoin as much as possible.

To people living in the hell, bitcoin is not just about hodling and making profits, it's about having the chance to grasp their own lives.

Hope one day the transaction fees can be lowered down, so that more and more people could benefit from using bitcoin.

Well bitcoin will never replace fiat but this is not a problem. For new entrants to buy bitcoin, existing holders has to sell. As more people invest in bitcoin more distributed the wealth will be.

Doubtful. Too many bad news.

Lead by example, don't ask anyone to do anything you wouldn't do, stand up for the people you lead, be the first one to do the hard tasks. It's not hard to be a good leader. It's hard to lead shitty people.

Trading without knowledge is risky and will surely lead you to have loss in the end. Trading without knowledge equals loss.
Agreed. Knowledge is power.

There are at least 6,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 planets in the universe, if we go by Nasa's estimates.....

I honestly can not be so narrow minded as to think our planet is the only one hosting life.

Kid I work with bought a jar. Put $20 in every day for the two packs he'd smoke a day. Used it for the down payment on a $28K car. Also let us punch him every time he wanted a cig. It worked for him. He's smoke free now and rollin a balla ass Accord.

Justice is the legal or philosophical theory by which fairness is administered.
The concept of justice differs in every culture. An early theory of justice was set out by the Ancient Greek philosopher Plato in his work The Republic. Advocates of divine command theory argue that justice issues from God. In the 17th century, theorists like John Locke argued for the theory of natural law. Thinkers in the social contract tradition argued that justice is derived from the mutual agreement of everyone concerned. In the 19th century, utilitarian thinkers including John Stuart Mill argued that justice is what has the best consequences. Theories of distributive justice concern what is distributed, between whom they are to be distributed, and what is the proper distribution. Egalitarians argued that justice can only exist within the coordinates of equality. John Rawls used a social contract argument to show that justice, and especially distributive justice, is a form of fairness. Property rights theorists (like Robert Nozick) take a deontological view of distributive justice and argue that property rights-based justice maximizes the overall wealth of an economic system. Theories of retributive justice are concerned with punishment for wrongdoing. Restorative justice (also sometimes called "reparative justice") is an approach to justice that focuses on restoring what is good, and necessarily focuses on the needs of victims and offenders.
Great answer!
10  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: can someone explain why so many ICO's are scams? on: March 30, 2018, 10:49:04 AM
Because many people just looking to get a large amount of money and after this disaster.

A not scam ICO will have:
 -  a good team with a background behind them
 - good written WhitePaper - no just whitepaper a good one with details about the project they are going to build
   as detailed as can - the most white papers a have reviewed are 'Bla Bla Bla'
 - good design of the ICO website
 - KYC is also a very strong point which indicate the ICO plan to list their Token to markets - the KYC process is not free

This is just the most important things to take a look at an ICO.

Totally agreed about bla bla bla section. I've seen great ideas with no real decisions behind them at all.

Also one of the largest but less-known reasons is methane emissions. The United Nations has calculated that animal farming is responsible for 14.5 per cent of all greenhouse gas emissions and red meat and dairy production accounts for well over half of that (65 per cent).

the good leader is the head of the family, the father who can lead the good for his family and his children.
Don't think so. Leader must not be caring, he has to be effective. Sometimes it's different.

You have to ignore some things or be humble about them.
14  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading without knowledge on: March 27, 2018, 09:24:38 AM
Preferably, knowledge can be the one of the way to trading. We should have knowledge in trading, we should keep in our minds that we should be wise in trading. One mistake can lead to lose some of our money invested.

Agreed. Actually I don't understand how someone can trade without it. It's kinda basic thing.
