Economy / Economics / Re: Can Bitcoin End World Poverty?
|
on: June 29, 2017, 03:17:16 PM

Remember OP that bitcoin is an alternate cryptocurrency which can be accessed through the use of the internet. While it has the potential to at least alleviate poverty, it cannot fully end poverty since not all people from the marginalized sector have access of the internet. Also, the most basic way of earning btc is through joining campaign signatures, which requires someone who has knowledge and who is literate enough to make constructive posts. But if they have the determination and drive to engage with it, then the quest to end poverty starts there.

Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think billionaires invest in BTC?
|

I strongly believe that one of the factors on why bitcoin prices are low right now is due to billionaires infiltrating the market. By them investing, they take a hold of the supply of bitcoins, thus decreasing its price and hoarding it for the future. Since billionaires also want to have more money, they will consider and do all the measures to increase their investment.

I don't know what people really expect in a market where the value is determine by supply and demand having fluctuations is perfectly
actually the current market is very stable if you do a comparison with the past, I'm very pleased with it
Exactly! Since the price of bitcoins are determined by the market supply and demand, the fluctuations of its price is completely normal. I would say that this is the best time and opportunity for people to invest since the prices right now are low and there is always the possibility of it sky-rocketing again. Some people also might hoard bitcoin right now due to the supply increasing and sell it when the demand increases. Just give it some time and the prices will surely go back. |

If you managed to double your bet or lose 2 times in a row, then you need to stop the game in order not to lose all means.
This. I never really liked gambling from the start because of the risks it involves especially when you bet a high amount of money. But to answer your question on when to leave gambling, you should leave once you lose or win twice to thrice in a row. Gambling creates an everlasting cycle of you going-in and out of it despite your winnings. You may have the confidence to gamble again when you experience winning but when you start losing, that is the time on where you think that you want to recover the money that you have lost. Because of that, people tend to bet everything and at the end, they lose all of their earnings. At the end of the day, gambling will only make or break your life. |

This is very hard for all government to use one currency for the whole countries, technically it is impossible so that I think there is no need to make any comment about this from my point of view, there is big difference among their economy some countries are poorest.
Agreed. Every country has different economies depending on how developed it is. If there is only one currency in the world, this would give rise to destruction and chaos from different parts of the world and would also create an unbalance in the system. Having only one currency will only make the poor poorer, and the rich richer due to the availability of the funds to them. Expect war from countries happening and poverty around the world increasing. |

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin be used by ordinary citizens?
|
on: June 28, 2017, 06:23:55 AM
|
Most ordinary citizens know how to use the internet and operate a computer/mobile device so yeah, Bitcoin can be and is used by ordinary citizens. One doesn't need to know and understand all the technical aspects of bitcoin in order to utilize it.
With internet access everyone can use bitcoin but until now there are still many people who do not know what bitcoin so that people who have internet access also not necessarily use bitcoin if they do not know what bitcoin. Everyone has equal rights when it comes to using bitcoins but what separates us it the knowledge on how we use or earn it. Once an ordinary citizen learns about bitcoins and its usage, the information will spread from person-to-person, creating an everlasting cycle until everyone knows it already. Not to mention, the benefit of us having bitcoins is that it helps us from earning extra income to support our families. This also creates a potential to at least help the society especially the marginalized sectors to earn money. |

Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Buy more bitcoin or wait for August 1st?
|
on: June 28, 2017, 12:56:23 AM
|
So my initial plan was to invest more into bitcoin on a weekly basis but with the possibility of a split on August 1st I figured I'd wait a little. If there would be a split, there would certainly be a drop in price so maybe a good opportunity to pick some more up rather than doing it now. Normally I tend to make these kind of decisions for myself but since I don't fully understand what will happen August 1st I figured this would be the best place to ask.
We can not be able to see what is going to happen especially to the price of bitcoin once the month of august have started, there may be a certain drop but most people seeing a possibility that there will be a certain jump on that month . Its your choice whether to buy now or wait until august 1 to buy, but probably waiting for that day might lose you an opportunity if ever the price gets higher . and i am sure that the price is not going to down but it will continue increase and therefore i think buying bitcoin in the present time will be really a very good decision. Why you are so sure? It can drop easily, I think in this case it is just better to wait until August and then try to buy bitcoins, because after this bitcoin will go up deffinetly. There are only two possibilities of what could happen before or after August 1, which is a change in the pricr of bitcoins. Based from my experience, it is best to invest money when all prices are down since there is always the potential for it to increase again. But it may also be the other way around depending on the factors. Since the price of bitcoins are slowly decreasing, it still maintains its expensive value due to the law on demand and supply. That's why I really suggest for you to buy them now and invest it. Not to mention, waiting till August 1 consumes too much time. |

|
on: June 27, 2017, 06:01:51 AM

Me its not hard to buy bitcoin because we have own wallet or my country have own wallet called coins.ph you can easily to buy bitcoin if you want because they have instant of buying bitcoin in bank using mobile phones. You can cashout also easily if you want and you can get your payout instant. You can try also local bitcoin or echanges site.
We have the same thoughts. But if you do not want your identity to be known even if the site is trusted, then you are really going to have a hard time getting bitcoins. But I suggest that instead of buying one, try earning it! It feels good and rewarding to be able to earn BTC through your own efforts and patience especially if your options are limited. |

The person high school dropout who invested in bitcoins is now a millionaire at 18
he is just because of lucky, he invested in bitcoins without analisys bitcoins,
dropout from high school wish to be millionaire is not good ideas due to
however the education is very important for our life in the future.
Tons of luck are in this millionaire kid. Maybe he didn't know or expected it will happen to his life. Just got lucky he knows bitcoin ahead of time. Oh i envy him. Hope this will serve an inspiration to all that nothing's impossible when you dream. I wouldn't say that it was pure luck that made him into a millionaire but also the intelligence and skill that he has. He knew that bitcoin will be the NEXT BIG THING and he tried investing it and that decision paid him well. This also proves that not all high school drop-outs are all for nothing but don't get me wrong, education still is the most important thing besides food. At the end of the day, what matters is the determination and goal-oriented way of thinking that one may be successful. |

Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC sudden price fall?
|
on: June 26, 2017, 11:21:08 PM

I think this is just normal of Bitcoin. The other week bitcoin was at this price then it goes up and goes back to this price again. This is what we called high volatility. Wild fluctuation that attracted lots of day traders since they can book big profit from this price changes. I am surprised that OP is still surprise about this kind of price changes in Bitcoin. And about ETH it goes down because it should since ETH had form a bubble and seems this bubble burst.
Exactly! It may seem shocking at first but we also need to understand that BTC is becoming popular everyday. The market may crash anytime soon but this does not mean that its value will completely change. These changes of its price fluctuates every now and then due to other factors determining its price. I also do think that this is a good time to buy one for investment because of its low price in the market. |

Earning 1BTC now a day is so hard because the price of btc is continue to rise that's why I do not have 1btc, but I have a little btc in my wallet earning from my signature campaign and I'm confidence that i will reach 1btc by the end of this year (I hope so) for now i'm hold my btc and keep working until that day comes hehehe  The price at the moment is decreasing so this could be your opportunity to buy some bitcoin at cheaper prices, let us hope that the crash is not so bad but at the moment almost every single crypto in the Top 100 in market cap is losing money right now. Yup, the price of btc is steadily decreasing but that does not hinder me from working hard to get at least 1 btc in the future. I also do hope that the market does not crash which may alter the price, but we all know that btc is becoming famous everyday. Always remember that all of our hard work will pay-off in the future for as long as you have the will and determination to do so. |

Why not???
I don't think so, Bitcoin is becoming a profitable sector of investment and saving, people are going to be involved in this platform nowadays, day by day Bitcoin is getting more acceptable and credible, so it is just a matter of time to become number one for long..so keep calm and use Bitcoin..
Exactly! It doesn't mean that if another crypto-currency is becoming popular, bitcoin will fall already. Always remember that as time passes by, bitcoin's popularity is also increasing slowly but surely. Also, the value of bitcoin is steadily increasing at the moment and does not show any signs of decreasing or whatsoever. For as long as the conversion of btc to money is high, it will unlikely to fall apart in the near future. |

Economy / Economics / Re: WILL BITCOIN BE USED BY ALMOST EVERYONE IN 2022?
|
on: June 13, 2017, 03:26:13 PM
|
|
Good day OP! I would not say EVERYONE but most likely a large number of people will start using bitcoin by 2022. The reason for this is that bitcoin is slowly becoming popular due to its nature, availability, and most importantly price. We all know that the price of bitcoin fluctuates, but is slowly increasing as time passes by. More and more people are being aware of the value of bitcoins since I have a lot of friends who started investing here. Then again, there is always the risk of its price decreasing due to the supply increasing. Lastly, I also believe that there is a potential of bitcoin being the main source of investment in the near future.
