41  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin the success ladder. on: January 11, 2018, 11:30:00 AM
The success of bitcoin  in the development and eradication of poverty cannot be overemphasize. The truth about the success  ladder  of bitcoin was glaring seen in the life of its  members in 2017, who only did not  break through financially, but also academically. The success ladder of bitcoin will soon be experienced by all holders of bitcoin. Holding on is just what is need to achieve this.
42  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why are they afraid of bitcoin? on: January 10, 2018, 06:02:21 AM
They are afraid of the great expoit that Bitcoin  have started to do and is yet to do. Many are surprise how Bitcoin could  be used for online payments without the use of the bank for exchange of currency to that of the country whose transaction is been carried out, so that the banks will continue to make gain and cut out some money as charges for such services and transactions.Many people are still surprise at the profit and gain in investing in this cryptpo called bitcoin. The government and the banks happens to be the worst hit at what Bitcoin is capable of doing, and that is why they are afraid.

It is not surprising that people are joining bitcoin, it is expected that when many people get to know about cryptocurrency and the benefit that is in it. In 2018 Bitcoin will rise beyond the expectation of all.
44  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin in 2018 on: January 08, 2018, 05:08:56 PM
In 2018, Bitcoin will appreciate exponentially to a value price that will be shocking and surprising. It will be different from 2017, though other competitors are out there, Bitcoin still stand out among the cryptocurrencies. For now bitcoin is used for some online business, trading, investments,gambling...etc. With many people coming to know more about bitcoin and its advantages, 2018 will be greatest for bitcoin rising in Price.

Life without money will be impossible, as it means that the person's existence will be miserable. It will be difficult to  live on this planet earth without money, even at the presence of all needed to survive still yet there will be a lot of other things that must be acquired that may not be available except by paying cash or through the use of Bitcoin. 
46  Economy / Economics / Re: Why have Bitcoin instead of cash? on: January 07, 2018, 02:29:01 PM
Bitcoin is a digital currency that tends to increase in value and price over a period of time compared to cash that does not increase in price. Bitcoin is accepted by many countries and organisations , this  help in online transactions which cash cannot be used for it.Bitcoin can also be use for trading and others which can cannot be used, and that is why I prefer Bitcoin to Cash.
47  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Cash is better than Bitcoin. on: January 06, 2018, 09:54:04 PM
I don't believe cash is better than Bitcoin in any way. This is because the cost of one Bitcoin is  more than any currency, and when you have your Bitcoin, there is a lot you can do with it. It can never be compared with cash, so I want to believe that Bitcoin is better than cash.
48  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will hit 20.000$ ? what do you think guys ? on: January 05, 2018, 10:05:32 PM
Surely BTC will again hit $20k mark within 1 week. But Market dominance of BTC is reduced to just 37% which is not a great sign for its growth, it means people around all the world has gained a token of trust on altcoins and start shifting from BTC to altcoins. It is all because of crazy transaction fees and long confirmation hours which make people shift to other altcoins.

I think irrespective of the current price of Bitcoin, it will actually appreciate in price and get a lot of people to be surprise of  it and the best time to buy is now.
49  Economy / Speculation / Re: In 2018 BTC will hit 1 trillion ? on: January 05, 2018, 04:03:45 PM
I can not conclusively say for now that in 2018 Bitcoin will hit 1 trillion because any thing can happen, but I know for sure that bitcoin will continue to appreciate and rise in price to the great surprise of many.
50  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why are so many people against bitcoin? on: January 05, 2018, 08:46:37 AM
The reason why many people are against bitcoin is because of the fact that they lack Knowledge in the ideology behind Bitcoin. The fact that it is a digital currency is the term many people are yet to understand. The use of a wallet from blockchain  technology, also the use of internet, and many others makes it look different from the normal    type of currency they are use to. Government  and bank' s negative  pronouncement can also make many people to be against bitcoin. 
51  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel shameful for being a gambler? on: January 04, 2018, 10:19:29 AM
Go guys!
In many cultures and countries is gambling consider as a bad thing which only the poorest and silliest ones do. Many gamblers try to hide that they gamble from their friends and families and feel really shameful for that. Do you consisted gambling as a bad thing? Do you feel shameful or proud for being a gambler? If it is shame what you feel what do you about it? How do you hide you're a gambler and who do you hide it from?
Let others know!

If you can't think about anything else but gambling the whole day and if coming home the first thing you do is turning on the computer to gamble as soon as possible and if after you start you can't stop until your whole balance is lost, then yes gambling is a very bad thing for you. But if you just like to relax gambling for an hour or two and you can stop any time and you don't lose big money with it then there's nothing wrong with that IMO.

I quite agree with you that there is need for a gambler to be discipline as per how to gamble as that is what is affecting most addicted gamblers who lost all their money in gambling , even the last amount of money they are suppose to use for their upkeep and family, thereby painting other gamblers as if they are not responsible. Many have through gambling become very rich, while others very poor as well. The ratio is higher for the poor while for those who make it through gambling are few.I am not ashamed to be a responsible gambler.
52  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why media against bitcoin ? on: January 03, 2018, 09:32:56 PM
when ever I found any news about bitcoin it is negative news , i am confused why traditional mass media always against bitcoin ?

It's no secret that now the owners of banks can order negative advertising for crypto currency so that their clients do not use crypto currency.

I agree with you in that the media , have journalist that can as well do an investigation into what they are about to publish, if it is true or not.But in a situation where the sponsor of such negative publication is the government or the banks, in the interest of their customers and the bank from collapse, they can go out publishing negative and erroneous news about Bitcoin that have transformed life of investors of this wonderful cryptocurrency.
53  Other / Politics & Society / Re: What is your take on homosexuality? on: January 02, 2018, 02:56:25 PM
I strongly condemn the act of homosexuality which God also did not support.If  homosexuals dominate the world, who will give birth to all the homosexuals, it means many who are homosexuals will never have been born. Almighty God have made provision for procreation by making man  and woman for this purpose. Any Practice outside God's own plan for man, should not be practised.Doing what pleases God is the best choice .
54  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is It advisable to quit my present job for bitcoin? on: January 01, 2018, 01:51:50 PM
No it is not advisable to quit your present job for bitcoin, especially if you are a beginner. Bitcoin trading and investments may not be a monthly income, but have to hold on for some months or years, for appreciation of investments and  trading for profits to be realised. Quiting your job is not a wise idea for now.
55  Economy / Economics / Re: Electronic Money vs. Physical Money on: January 01, 2018, 09:56:03 AM
i will prefer electronic money because
electronic money is fast to used.
electronic money is easy to used .
electronic money can be access easily.
electronic money is secure to hold or to exchange anywhere.

I think Electonic money which is a digital currency is more preferred by me than Physical money. The electronic money are save and can not be assess except by the owner of such wallet. The physical money need to be carried to the bank especially when they are in millions.Electronic money  is not taxed, it is easy to be use for trading, for transactions, for investments, gambling, and others. The physical money have to be changed to other currencies before it can be used for most all transactions online.
56  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: what makes you trust a new altcoin? on: January 01, 2018, 07:29:45 AM
its enough good question and i want to clear you that there are large number of altcoins in market and still coming so you should choose the best one on their performance like
you need to do research about altcoin from their start day.
you need to search the team involved in that coin.
you need to search their road map
you need to see their activities in market.

I tatally agree with you that before  you trust a new altcoin, there is a very important thing to do , which is to do a reasech about the new altcoin and the white paper to ensure  you understand their ideology and how they are doing in the market as well and to see if actually they are worth investing in.
57  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If bitcoin will be used in our daily transactions. on: December 30, 2017, 09:41:27 AM
Of course if bitcoin is commonly used as a daily payment, schools or other institutions will also adopt payments via bitcoin. But it needs to be socialized about how the payment.
Daily payments using bitcoin still have constraints with the amount of fees that must be incurred for each transaction, this needs to be fixed.
I think it has just started and not only in my country it is used as a way of payment in many countries. There are many transaction who accept bitcoin in our country, like paying bills and i think it is not possible if one of this day even in a mall or paying tuition fees will also accept bitcoin especially those school that can use also the student fees in some investment to grow the more of the school.

Yes bitcoin is used to pay for daily transactions, especially in part of our country where it is not all that known but people have heard  about it , most business  organisations also make it known to the public that payment with bitcoin is accepted. Many with bitcoin patronises  shopping complex,and other organisations where Bitcoin is accepted.
58  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think the Xmas and Holiday season, caused the drop in the price? on: December 29, 2017, 07:00:15 PM
I'm one of those people who withdraw some funds to reward myself a little for the holiday season. Based on the observations of my partner who has been investing in bitcoin for almost 4 years, he said that whenever Christmas day is nearing, the value of bitcoin gets low at some point

Yes i believe that the Christmas Holiday season have actually caused the drop in the price of Bitccoin. Bitcoin  have been appriciating before the christmas, and just before the celebration the price drop.
59  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin now make it super easy to fund something in full secret on: December 29, 2017, 08:16:39 AM
Well, just be careful because Bitcoin is not designed to guarantee anonimity. You might be far less covert than you think.

I actually agree with you that Bitcoin have a good purpose of changing the life of investors for good. It is not intended to be use for the purpose of funding any thing secret and evil. A lot of people have become millionaire though investments in Bitcoin.
60  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is It Time To Sell. on: December 29, 2017, 06:38:13 AM
Never sell. Don't you even want to see what 2018 Yields?
Never sell? How can you taste the profits if you are not going to sell any of your bitcoin? It's not bad to sell but you need to do it at the right price.  But you can HODL majority of your bitcoin and just sell or cash out when there's a need of doing it so. And for sure there are too many people here that set that when bitcoin reaches $20,000 that's going to be the indicator of selling time.

No don't sell for the price have dropped, and i will want those intending to buy to take advantage of the price drop to buy . For those intending to sell, it all depend  on the price at which they bought it, to some selling it might be as a result of a pressing need and selling it also they may not be loosing as well, it all depend on at what price they buy. Every investors actually wants  to sell when the price is high and that is why i  say this is not selling time but the time to buy.
