161  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is the world ready for cryptocurrency? on: August 16, 2018, 07:18:11 AM
experts agree that bitcoin will never dominate fiat currency, paper currency is a medium of exchange used by people around the world for centuries, and it is impossible to replace it with bitcoin.
bitcoin is more suitable for investment, not the global global currency.
The popularity of bitcoin stir and make noise around the world by its ability to make easy profit by investment and many people from different society and different country adapt on it but still the whole world is not ready for the full blast of crypto currency since its main engine is fueled by internet and the fact that the world is not fully interconnected especially those remote areas therefore they cannot access crypto currency.

like this, if there are few participants in the signature campaign, your payment will be a lot. in fact, if the campaign time is too long + the number of signature participants is few, you will get a lot of payment. You will get a little payment because of a large number of signature participants.
Yes, but only case to case basis for there are bounty that took so long because of frequent extension and most reason of extension is because their tokens are not fully sold or only few are sold. Fewer participants is also not a guarantee of getting more bounty rewards for there are ICO that adjust their percentage of distribution if target participants are not fully meet, one thing I sure that if bounty program is successful then we can get brighter rewards.
163  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: There are many negative issues about bitcoin, what's the matter? on: July 25, 2018, 07:36:20 AM
Negative issue?

Every coin has  two sides so same goes with Bitcoin. Concerns are valid that it has no legal protection in most of the countries in the world but in the other hand  there are so many counties in world with unstable currencies that it will good option for them.

As far as investment is concerned the do not invest that you cannot afford to lose.


Bitcoin is the most promising coin in a history of crypto and can gives a great opportunity that a person can earn upon investment and or in a crypto trading and with this, there are more and more stories created because of its popularity and some observers on this field makes some negative comments maybe because they have not yet experienced the true taste of what crypto can brings. Maybe it is true that there is a pro's and con's of bitcoin but I think still depend of every person's acceptance and understanding.
164  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is best practice for gambling?? on: July 19, 2018, 11:12:14 PM
May anyone tell me what is the best practice for gambling with little investment? I have no so much experiance about it.Any suggestion or advice.

My advice is to bet only an amount you can afford to lose. Then if you are lucky to win then role over your winnings and leave your assets as your savings. In that way you can always gamble with a peace of mind knowing that when you lose you will still have some funds to roll over in your next betting.
Limitations and controls should be considered for every gamblers because gambling is just a matter of winning and losing, so if gamblers stuck their emotions and expectations to win next round then it will leads to multiple loses because winning is not our control. Don't try to lose much of money in gambling because it will only motivates to revenge and take all back what you have loses and still the result is unpredictable and that what gambling is.
165  Economy / Economics / Re: What profit has brought you to bitcoin? on: July 19, 2018, 10:15:50 PM
What is bitcoin? This is the first cryptocurrency that Satoshi Nakamoto opened to the world in 2009. And if even before 2011 it was used exclusively by programmers, then later it became available to ordinary users. Over time, more and more users of the Internet began to learn about it and investments in bitcoin only increase every year. There were times when the value of this cryptocurrency did not move from a dead point for a long time, as well as there were sharp UPS and downs.
It is interesting to know how many people have known about bitcoin since 2009 and how long have you been investing in bitcoin?
What percentage of the profits is brought to you by early investments in bitcoin?


im not the "early investment " on this bitcoin era , ijust know it at middle of 2017 , and i think its not late enough , i got profit by that and i happy
but yeah that people who bought it on 2009 and still keep it will be rich man this day
I agree because the price since 2009 till now has become too high and it is really good to see the price of bitcoin moving high like this, as at starting of investing I was not sure will I be able to earn or not but now when I look at the price I feel really satisfied with my thinking that finally I have got good amount of money, I am having good hopes that soon my income with bitcoin will be high and I will get good profit.
To speak frankly, bitcoin is such a great invention of human being, it provides us a very good way to access  the benefit and reach to a success in case of having patience. No one can deny the useful that bitcoin and many more other coins are bringging much advantages  to our life. Yep, when I am  at the first time in this invironment,  indeed I feeled like a fish out of water. However, as I get it drift,  I have been getting hooked on it, it’s so attractive and profitable. In short, bitcoin is really a prospective job, the more patient you are, the more benefit you can reach.
Certainly bitcoin is a product of the world's technological advancement and can be considered as humanities cutting edge of digital technology and with this, I am always crypto fanatics becauase I have already profitable within my short time of crypto engagement and generally bitcoin solve my financial problem.
166  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it possible to have bitcoin shortage? on: July 19, 2018, 09:32:27 PM
Yes of course you can have a Bitcoin shortage.  You will know exactly when its happening.  The price will fly to the moon in short order.  If the a market is allowed to remain free things like tight supply happen from time to time.  The free market may get wild but it quickly adjusts back to the median.
Yes, it is possible to happen in the future if billions of people will demand for bitcoin and it has only a limited supply and if that time comes then surely bitcoin price is pumping until the moon if we based on the law of supply and demand in the market and I hope and look it to happen when I am still alive.
167  Economy / Economics / Re: Why all people moan about the price of bitcoin? on: July 19, 2018, 01:19:22 PM
The forum is full of topics - “When Will Bitcoin Be Back To $...”, “Why BTC is under $...?”, “Final bottom at $...”, “Why BTC is down again?”, “Bitcoin will rise again ?” etc. The last two topics may appear in various forms  a dozen times a day.
I looked at graph price of BTC out of curiosity. I have noted to the price floor:

2015 - $200+
2016 - $300+
2017 - $700+
2018 - $5000+


Do you see something frightening in it?

We all can see that price drops because of actions by a Governments and big whales. Because they have the means and opportunities. They want to break into the our market on advantageous terms for them. Okay, well, I mean, that makes sense. We knew it would happen. But why that have to affect us?

In December 2017, the most people said - "Why I didn't buy BTC for $500… for $1000… f#ck it!.. for $2000...", "I will definitely buy BTC if it costs $7k-6k!..". But now when the price drops so well for us, we see "The demand for BTC is dropping". Seriously?!

So, instead to take advantage of the situation, buy up coins and altcoins, attract new people in crypto world more active than before, a lot of people stuck in indecision and think whether crypto market falls to the bottom and stays there.

Guys, are you serious? Crypto world is made by us. Governments and big whales haven’t any tricks to rule our world. It will happen only if we do nothing.

What do you think about it?

People moan about Bitcoin prices because they can not control Bitcoin price fluctuations. Bitcoins are expensive to buy now so try to fix that, make more accurate decisions to keep or sell to be able to go deeper and make a profit from this promising investment market. Be patient with Bitcoin.
The only reason I see people moaning about bitcoin is because they have buy bitcoin higher than the present value and the market now is having a little price up, so their expectation to be profitable as early as they want was all come into frustration and the result is they mostly moan about bitcoin price.
168  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you find Success in Gambling? on: July 18, 2018, 02:04:01 AM
I don’t know what is meant by success in gambling even i lost my amount in crypto and i would say crypto is also gambling or more than gambling.. i will never recover i think what i have done to me
Success in gambling that's the word and you can understand it. But to explain it more, it means that you are getting a lot of luck and you win all the time in gambling.
You live with a good life through gambling, you make money with gambling so this what success in gambling means. Crypto is also a gamble yes but this was totally different from gambling your money to a casino than holding or trading it which you can still have something left.

Easy money, that's what they say on gambling. One day you became a millionaire and the next day you lost everything. There might be a few who manage to get the most of their winnings, but we all know that majority of us, once we taste that big winnings, will come back for more and that is the biggest mistakes. We should let it sit and enjoy our winnings because it doesn't come very often but if became greedy, thing will become ugly for you.
Yes, certainly that is what gambling brought to us because the fact about gambling is more on loses and less in winning and therefore only few lucky one can feel the success from gambling. So As for me its very hard to find success from gambling since there many people like to gamble but only few are choosen to be lucky.
169  Economy / Economics / Re: What happens when there is NO electricity? How does one trade with BTC? on: July 17, 2018, 12:49:02 PM
We hear in the news that many people in countries that have currency issues are starting to trade in BTC - for example, Venezula.

My friend asked me what about in regions where they lose electricity, how would they trade with BTC?

For example Puerto Rico is right now devastated by the hurricane, and many parts of its region don't have electricity.  A lot of people need to buy food and even fresh water.

Is there a way to still trade with BTC in such situations? 

Can P2P trade still occur despite having any connection to the greater block-chain network?  Keep in mind that it's easy to charge mobile phone so they have access to wallet apps, but probably not the Internet.

I don't know too much about mobile data networks, but I doubt one's 4G/LTE data plan would work in such situations.  I assume that data would have to be relayed to a tower/dish before it's sent to satellites.  Am I correct?


No electricity means everything stops, You just simply can't access to the world what is bigger problem then no electricity is no Internet, government has the full right to stop the internet. It will be a new era of earning money.
Wow, what a horrible question like just asking what happen to a wind mill if there is no wind. Electricity is always been a part of people's live in this advancing world and it cannot be take away and so on for the internet, bitcoin miners needs power source and therefore having no source then no miners and no miners then no transaction, but it would not be happen since blockchain is almost perfect by its design.
170  Economy / Speculation / Re: Does the bitcoin have a future? on: July 17, 2018, 09:06:02 AM
I strongly believe that bitcoin has a future, because the world of technology will continue to grow in the future, everything will be all digital, and bitcoin is a very popular digital currency today, and will become more popular and growing in the future.
Yes, big possibility that crypto currency will dominate globally in terms of monetary system as our the world already on a digital era and everything will be transacted in electronics transaction. Credit cards, debit cards and other cards use to purchase goods and services are already started now a days and it is the examples that we are already on a digital transaction and with the cutting edge of blockchain technology bitcoin will leads the future's new form of currency.
171  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The consequences of gambling on: July 16, 2018, 08:45:07 PM
I understand that too much gambling have bad consequences that can affect a person's daily life. I don't know if the person who created this thread is an anti gambling person or maybe he belongs to a belief where gambling is just prohibited.

Hey! Every move we take have consequences. Everything is a gamble. Life is a gamble.

If we feed our greed all the time with gambling, then we will face bad conditions where we will be trapped in it and can not get out. This is when we are facing a bad series of loss and we have no more money to cover it up.

There is something bad happens whenever we push ourselves in gambling, I mean if we always continue to bet even though we know that we are just going to lose again, we will just realized that it is already too late when we lost everything that we have already.
I agree with you, if you don't set up limit for yourself in gambling, you could lose everything that you have.
Yes, despite of the fun and entertainment that we've got from gambling still have many consequence if we don't have put limitations and control the way we bring it on, I believe that prolonged exposure to gambling will lead to addiction ad controls are useless anymore and addiction will destroy some important things on us, like the time that we can give to our family, relationship for our love ones and it always gives mental and physical stress if always unlucky and lost everything assets that we have.
172  Economy / Economics / Re: Why the price of bitcoin rapidly going down on: July 15, 2018, 12:26:33 AM
if you just compare the price of Bitcoin 6 months ago to the current price then you will find that the price of Bitcoin is rapidly going down, but if you look at and compare the Bitcoin price from 2011 to the present then you will find that the Bitcoin price goes up...and I'm getting that Bitcoin's current price is going up not going down, even though Bitcoin's price ever gets to $19000...
Yes, because that is the nature of crypto currency of being volatile. Bitcoin price will depend on the market status by its supply and demand and I think big whales can do such abrupt changes of bitcoin market by dumping and pumping and so on with the daily traders it will greatly affect bitcoin's price.
173  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why is Bitcoin making the world go crazy? on: July 12, 2018, 01:47:34 PM
Here is my opinion:
  • Nowadays, many people are less interested in bank products.
  • Many noobs entering the Cryptocurrencies market, and they only know Bitcoin, not altcoin.
  • Venture capital also entering Cryptocurrencies and want to avoid tax.

I agree with you, many noobs only know bitcoin but not with altcoin. And lucky seekers will take advantage of bitcoin as a source of income, not as bitcoin lovers. This is very sad, but I'm sure out there are still a lot of true lovers of bitcoin and altcoin.
The popularity of bitcoin are already reaching out at almost every corners in the world and because of its ability to make big profit in a short span of time
many people going crazy of investing them without getting understand its volatility then they feel lost if they see a little negative changes. But generally bitcoin is very interesting and I hope it will be more successful because it helps a lot of people around the globe.
174  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What are some unique advantages of online gambling ? on: July 12, 2018, 06:33:41 AM
Instant money is the advantage and disadvantage of the gambler mate. If you get the jackpot or profit all the time you will be able to get the more money with the gambling. If you find the loose alone you need to quit and confirm that you do not have the way to understand the loose.

Please check the site and use your money because recent days we see many people invested on the gambling platform and loosing their money with the amount they invested on it.
Online gambling is an easy to do, less hustle and can be done at ease. If you feel shy of accompanying more people in casino then online gambling is the answer of that worry and I agree that it also gives quick money if lucky strike.
175  Economy / Economics / Re: Wise thing to do with your savings. on: July 11, 2018, 10:20:56 PM
Emergency funds should be saved in fiat money. because emergency funds are used at any time. if we keep it in the form of investment deposit or cryptocurrency then we will need time to change it in fiat form. why should we change to fiat form. because as far as I know there is no hospital that receives cryptocurrency as a means of payment. and also the number of stores that receive cryptocurrency a bit.

Yes, agree with you mate but we can make our savings safe as for emergency purposes by deposited it on the bank and if we want a profit wise savings then I think I should go for crypto investment since it has a high chance of doubling profit in a short period of time and about the risk along the way then we should have to absorb it as it always being a part of investment.
176  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To quit gambling is to quit yourself on: July 11, 2018, 04:28:58 AM
When gambling becomes an issue and a life problem then quitting gambling is not quitting your life it’s getting your life back! I personally can’t understand how people let themselves get to that point where they loose everything for a game. It’s supposed to be a fun activity not ruin life for it.
People lose everything for gambling because they become greedy, they want to have an easy money so they think that gambling can give them that or maybe others just want to gamble without them noticing that they become addicted already. There are a lot of reasons actually but it all boils down to money.
I don't think so why we need to quit our self if we're only just to stay away from gambling, we can focus other things that are productive for one's self and for the family, so we don't need to change everything about our self, slowly leave gambling and consider it as non profitable activities and its just only a sort of leisure that need to be controlled.
177  Economy / Economics / Re: why the state does not print a lot of money? on: July 10, 2018, 10:30:44 PM
It is not good for the value of the state money if the amount of money in circulation a lot. the less the amount of money then the value of the money will be expensive.
No it is not like this, because I think as much as money will be useless the more people will use bitcoin an this thing is actually the reason why bitcoin is getting more value than the fiat I think we should also promote bitcoin more than fiat because it is good for us and for the progress of the crypto currency on our society and the economy.
Yes, printing a lot of money will lessen the value of that particular currency because obviously its supply will increase and the price of commodities will surely go higher as many people buy all what they want for they already have a lot of money and the effect is the supply of goods and commodities will extinct causing its price go higher.
178  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can We Finally Call This the DEATH of Bitcoin?!? on: July 10, 2018, 02:52:22 PM
Bitcoin is not dead, crippled or anything else. We too a ride to $20k, where we didn't belong, and the correction is occurring. 2018 has sucked so far but that doesn't mean it is time to throw in the towel.
Exactly, bitcoin is not dead and it is still keep on ticking if we based its movement last year with the same month the bitcoin is quietly have a good movement even if its value now is far different from the previous month, bitcoin will remain the most powerful coin in crypto world, this is only just the beginning and in the near future people will realize the importance of crypto currency.
179  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you feel shameful for being a gambler? on: July 10, 2018, 01:31:36 PM
I never feel shameful as I never bet more than I am willing to loose. My gf really only hates the losses. As I bought a scratch off the other day for 5$ scratched it and won 500$. Needless to say I used the winnings and bought 4 new tires. She was not ashamed of me then I can promise you that. We were broke and now we have 4 brand new tires!!! We were worried about how we were going to fit it into our budget!!!!
As long as we are not taking advantage to other people, nothing to be shame of. If we are using our money which we consider as a excess in our budget there is nothing wrong with it. I don't mind on what other people think as long as I'm happy and contented of am I doing. Life is too short to control upon your happiness. Just always set limitations for the good of your family.
180  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin's High Volatility on: July 10, 2018, 06:08:19 AM
As far as i know bitcoin has a high volatility given the fact that it is in demand in the market but i did not expect hat it is so high that it can really go from 1-100 and 100-0.
I want your insights about this volatility of bitcoin.

Yes. Bitcoin is so unpredictable, you can not foretell when did bitcoin in down and when it will rise. Bitcoin can not be controlled and maybe that is one of the reasons of some country banned bitcoin because they can not control the market price of it and they are afraid that it will cause them to lose lots of money
Although this is unpredictable and totally volatile that there is big difference sometimes when you see it one day and then the other day. But the main thing is, you have to accept the best thing one can make out of it. People have made their lives amazing with this amazing coin. They have enhanced their living styles and right now, they prefer to go for bitcoin than any other source of income.
As for me, the volatility of a coin will depends upon the market movement so if Bitcoin is higly volatile then it only means that it is fast moving on a market more buying and selling happens and because Bitcoin has very high value then a little change on the market will greatly affect the profits of every investor.
