If I do an action that will help someone else but in the process I am also helping myself is this an altruistic or a selfish action?

Any speculation when China might launch its alt coin would it be mined or have a set amount.

Think of bitcoin like gasoline. We should not cheer when gasoline goes up because we have some gas in our car. But we should be happy of a breakdown as an opportunity of buying cheap gasoline(Bitcoin)

I would recommend reading the selfish gene by Richard Dawkins... The purpose of life is to be a vehicle for genes to replicate themselves. The immortal gene Grin

My favorite movie is wolf of wall street & wall street 1 and 2.

I liked wall street but Wall Street 2 got really bad reviews heard it was bad from friends as well I never bother watching because it seemed poor. Really one of your favorite movies?

13  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: January 25, 2016, 06:00:07 PM


I'm not really a big fan of gold as an investment. I believe it's always better to invest majority of your money when speaking of a long term time span rather than save. Stocks would be the best long term investment. Bitcoin does not have a 200 year history like the other investments shown above. so I would say it's very speculative. Bitcoin as an investment in the long term will either be an utter failure or big home run. Personally I'm betting on the latter!
14  Economy / Economics / Re: Why do people keep saying BTC is dead?! on: January 25, 2016, 05:16:12 PM
Only mike Hearn recently said so. bitcoin has been declared dead so many times that I would think nothing unique about recent comments of "Bitcoin is dead".
15  Other / Off-topic / The Gold Standard (Bad or Good) on: January 25, 2016, 03:59:18 PM
The unstableness of golds price would make a gold backed economy unstable. Gold standard would also limit governments ability of responding to crisis which could be argued as either a pro or con depending on your perspective. What is your view on the gold standard would you be for or against it?
16  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What are satoshi ? on: January 24, 2016, 01:17:21 PM
Satoshi is the smallest division of BTC.

1 satoshi = 0.00000001 BTC

Also:
1 mBTC = 0.001 BTC
1 uBTC = 0.000001 BTC

Thanks that makes a lot of sense now

Why do people talk in satoshi how much is a satoshi worth? What are satoshi is it a unit?
18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XMR] Monero Speculation on: January 24, 2016, 12:55:33 PM
Well, someone dumped 30k at once this morning, which resulted in retesting previous resistance (145k, which is now support). Fortunately, it held, so it might merely be a little retrace. Keep in mind, we also had a quite sharp retrace before we blased through 145k.

Newbie question when you say 30k or 145k is that the price measured in satoshi

well I never slept with a hooker… aren't you worried about diseases? kind of dirty to sleep with hookers must be safer and cheaper to pick up girls from a bar? The only resource saved with hookers would be time

Problem is you're also risking having disease when picking up girls in the bar. You'll never know if they do have some history of STD

But I would imagine the chances are much lower when sleeping with a random girl over someone who is a prostitute... Perhaps if she was a very high class hooker then the chances are similar. Although economically buying a few drinks at the bar is cheaper
