321  Economy / Economics / Re: bitcoin benefit of saving for a long time? on: November 01, 2017, 12:46:28 PM
why so many people store their bitcoin in their wallet for a long time, whether the benefits will they get?

Come share your thoughts


If your question is, why are there many people who are holding their bitcoin?, the answer is, because bitcoins price is steadily going on an up trend, meaning, it continues to increase its price. Now, holding your bitcoin will give you a big sum of profit, since we knownthat its price just continues to increase.

Many years talk about global warming, pollution. What do you think about it? Can it be reversed?

I think, we can never save a life from death, if its time for them to die, I believe that our planet is a living organism so its life is its own and only God can save, lengthen or destroy it. We can only try to save it and take care of it, but we can never be sure about the outcome of it.

Hi everyone,

What advice would you give a HS senior in US about to decide on and/or enter college ?

Going to college is a great advantage, but it doesn't necessarily mean that your future depends if you went to college or not. Many successful people didn't had the chance to go to college, yet, they are successful. But one thing is common when you hear them speak, that they wish they had the chance to go to school.

Do you think that men and woman are treated equally in society?
if not , what are the ways you suggest to promote equality among society ?

I believe that men and women are created equal, but they are of different gender, thats it, there just nothing more to it. If wemen want to be treated like men then I don't know what will happen, the same way if men wanted to be treated as women. There is a reason why gender is created that way, and I just want it to be as it is.
325  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 2017 is the Year for Bitcoins.... on: November 01, 2017, 04:49:23 AM
I was browsing for news in bitcoins last week when I got intrigue with this title in an news article.  In deed, the biggest test for bitcoins in this year for there are a lot of scares with its operations.  There has been issues with its legal basis as China and South Korea has halted their exchange operations.  The all time low bitcoin value then the sudden increase of its worth... It has been a roller coaster... but thankfully it survive and here we are...

What I think is that, 2017 is just the start of bitcoins reign, its gonna be more known and many investors and bitcoin users are gonna invest in bitcoin. Bitcoin is gonna be known world wide and its value will continue to rise even though some countries are not infavor of it. Bitcoin is gonna continue to rise because its got many investors and users who are just rushing to get their hands on it.
326  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why some people prefer Bitcoin over fiat ? on: November 01, 2017, 04:37:55 AM
Bitcoin is being used widely in porn sites, gambling and drug dealing sectors. Is that why the btc made for ? I have seen a lot of members in this forum discussing about buying drugs, gambling and enjoying porn with bitcoin. Is not it a misuse of a currency ? Block chain tech is a awesome tech and btc is getting popular. I hate these misuses of precious btc. It hurts me. This will lead into unhealthy society along with unhealthy future generation.

Well, bitcoin is made for transactions to be anonymous, that is why it is being used widely by these kind of people, but the purpose of bitcoin is good, and is for the convinience of many. Now, the way you use your bitcoin is depending on what you wanna use it. Bitcoin isn't bad or something, it is the users that is making it look bad.
327  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do thousands of investors hold bitcoin on troubled days? on: November 01, 2017, 04:27:57 AM
Bitcoin has a huge demand among thousands of investors who dream of a non-cash future, and now they are investing in digital currency, not traditional means.
The first crypto currency has already turned early investors into millionaires, and tries to do everything possible, if only the many thousands of people radically changed their views on traditional markets and investments in general. Although those who use and support bitcoin still make up a smaller percentage of the world's population, in the millennial generation of investors, the number of young people who turn away from traditional financial empires is growing. If this trend continues, it could mean an absolute collapse of the banking system, as it continues to adhere to outdated algorithms. Until now, there is some way, until even the most seasoned investors are completely free of traditional banking and monetary institutions, but today they can already control their future in terms of investments. Since it is easier for them to manage their own savings plan by investing and reinvesting new technologies. Although they continue to deduct a certain percentage of the usual pension fund, and their accounts still have to be paid through a bank account, but investments in crypto-currencies have become for them a central part of savings.

This is because, they can see that bitcoin is gonna be the biggest change that will happen in the year 2020 and onwards. New technologies are booming, and along with these new technologies, comes new ways of transactions, and that is where bitcoin comes in. Having money now gives you the power, but having bitcoin now, will give you power in the near future.
328  Economy / Economics / Re: Do You Think Bitcoin Will Replace Dollar Soon? on: November 01, 2017, 04:15:25 AM
Coinbase CEO believes bitcoin will replace dollar within 15 years.

Read the following news:
http://cointelegraph.com/news/114983/coinbase-ceo-bitcoin-will-replace-dollar-within-15-years

Do you think it will be true? Are you positive towards bitcoin's future status?

I think its gonna happen, I mean Bitcoin replacing dollar in the market, but I dont think its gonna be that easy. There are still roo many issues to be taken into consideration, and the legalizations of bitcoin to every state. For me, bitcoin is sure to replace dollar innthe market, but its not gonna be as soon as 15 years.
329  Economy / Economics / Re: Electronic Money vs. Physical Money on: November 01, 2017, 04:02:17 AM
Hi guys, I just want to know your views and opinion about the difference in Electronic Money (Bitcoin and others) and the Physical Money. Many people now a days are still confuse about the existence of the Bitcoin and how it differ from our Physical Money that we are using to buy necessity. I hope we could share and learn from each other.  Wink Smiley

Physical money is a bit of a hassle, carrying around big amount of money endangers you as thieves lurks around. On the other hand, cryptocurrency gives you the freedom to roam around even though you're carrying large amount of money, because having your money in your device gives tou the security that no one can easily get your money. Paying and other transactions are way easier aswell, with the use of cryptocurrency.
330  Economy / Economics / Re: Difference of Trading and Investing? on: November 01, 2017, 03:41:04 AM
Guys sorry for this question above but I would like to ask here that

What is the difference of Trading to Investing?

though I know that I can search it in google but I want an answer from those people who have already experienced this two.
Thank you.

I hope you can help me in my confusion..


In a way, they are the same as they are both investments, but the difference is that, in investing, you put your money to something you think that might give you profit or earnings, while in trading, you trade your coins or currencies or money to other money or currency that is sure and you see that will give you profit or earnings.
331  Other / Politics & Society / Re: impact of internet and technology on: October 31, 2017, 05:46:04 AM
how the technology and gadgets are affecting the mind and health of people. is it in more negative way or is it in positive way??

Actually, technologies and gadgets, these two have been a great help to everyone, might aswell say, the whole of humanity and everything in this world. There are pros and cons of course, but I can say that it is because of people itself and not because of the technology. Most people tend to over use technology, and that is the main reason why we have a bad side effects of technology.

Everyone are very excited on this. People are exchanging their thoughts which would help to the developer to enhance if there's any.

I think most of the users are truly changing their minds about what to use, many of us now are just looking forward in using this kind of service, and it is because of the advantages that boosteroid has to offer. I can't blame everyone, because I myself am very excited to experience the advantage of using these services.
333  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ICO LIVE] Boosteroid - personal cloud computer available for everyone on: October 31, 2017, 01:37:13 AM
I'm expecting the sales to be around $700000 by the first phase of the ico ends. With the pricing currently at $0.48 each and if the 2nd phase ramps it up by $1.08 then they will probably reach $1m in matter of months.
Yeah good prediction. I am expecting also that the sales will be around $680,000 to $700,000 in the presale since it only have 6 days left before the presale ends. But maybe there are some investors out there who will invest in the last minute of the presale.

I think some investors didnt see yet the full potential of this ICO , maybe because of the lack of updates here in this forum , but If they see that the people behind this project is active then Im really sure they will take time to invest in this ICO since this project is one of the good project.

Maybe, other investors are hesitant in investing in this project (boosteroid), because of its offered services. I mean, the leading companies are offering the service in a much higher price than boosteroid, maybe they just cannot believe that boosteroid can offer the same service with a cost that is unbelievably lower than those of the leading campanies.
Yeah I understand the part of investors that they are doubting because of the lower price. It is normal that they feel suspicious about it. But if we convince them to take time to read about Boosteroid then maybe they will find out the reason why it has a low price and then they will invest to it.

I have read somewhere in their paper or in this thread, that they chose a place where the cost of electricity is low, and around 80 percent of their services is requiring electricity and that is the main reason why they got such lower price. Maybe if the investors can read that statement then they won't as hesistant. If they have read about that but still doubt, then its their loss, while boosteroid users are enjoying their services, these doubtful people are still paying for their old services with a very high price.

In order to utilized effectively the Boosteroid app, the user needs to have a quick and stable internet connection. This will allow you to present video, create 3D-graphics, and play the most modern games using any computer.
Yeah one of the requirements of the Boosteroid and all kinds of cloud computing services is the stable internet connection. That is why before you will avail this product, make sure that you have a good and efficient internet provider.

Yes, internet connection that is good is a must to enjoy boosteroid to the fullest. Nowing that there are countries that has a very low and unstable internet connection, is there a way for them to use the boosteroid to the fullest without having a good and stable internet connection?. I think they will be able to use boosteroid and enjoy it aswell.

There is too much these days about people have friends as snakes disguise. Well let us take a moment appreciate the real friends. I bet people still have real friends, the ones who truly stand by them no matter what happens. We waste too much time complaining about the bad people we have in our life. Why not appreciate the ones who have been in our life as a blessing. I've been blessed with a whole bunch of real friends who support me no matter what. Are you also among the blessed ones?

I also have a bunch of them around, we've been together for more than 20 years now. Im so blessed to have good people around, most of the time we got no food at home, and that is because they always stay at our house almost everyday. Personal belongings is also something that we dont have, all of us share our things up to the most personal thing like underwear. Sometimes its annoying but I love the way we are.

Just quoted from one on your fb post saying that:

"Central bank of Singapore refused to regulate digital currencies"

Will this be a problem if a country refuse the digital currency? What if an interested investor is from Singapore?

I think that won't be of any problem, boosteroid is a service provider and is not affected whether we use  cryptocurrencies or fiat money, if your from singapore and you want to support and invest on this project, then you can just invest to boosteroid using your money. Please correct me if Im wrong.
338  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ICO LIVE] Boosteroid - personal cloud computer available for everyone on: October 29, 2017, 02:21:32 PM

Congratulations to the team of Boosteroid. Many investors are coming and trusting this kind of project, because of the concept that will benefits lots of people especially big companies. Keep up the good work and we are still looking for more updates from the team.

Actually its not surprising that there are lots of people (investors) who have invested in boosteroid, with this kind of project, it could really get the attention of many, most especially the ones who are using the service of the leading companies, I guess most of them are just waiting for boosteroid to be launched, then they will switch to boosteroid.

North Korea just launched its Ballistic Missile. Should the world be alarmed?

North korea is a small country, but even though its small, its power cannot be put aside or taken for granted, even big and strong countries are careful when they are dealing with north korea. That only means one thing, they are as powerful as those big countries, some even says that they are even more powerful that is why they are acting like a lone wolf.
