With a lot of money, I'd live anywhere.

Poloniex is the one that's providing a trusted investment service compared with the other available investment availability. There is no need to invest anywhere else, it's just good to have an highly secure wallet and keep hold of the bitcoins with you. You get a good profit in years.
I heard Poloniex was having problems, is this true?
3  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When will the bitcoin run out? on: June 26, 2017, 06:02:31 AM
According to what I've read Bitcoin is limited to 21 million Bitcoins, so if your question refers to when will there be a stop to the flow of Bitcoins via mining it will stop once 21 million have been mined.

I find football coin interesting, maybe because I like football.
5  Economy / Economics / Re: If USD falls on: June 23, 2017, 10:28:09 PM
What would be the reasons for the USD to fail? The only one I could think of is that the Union would disintegrate, Balkanizing the country, but why would that happen? You know the Euro since it's beginnings was given only a year before it would collapse and since then every year someone says this is the year the Euro fails and yet it's still working.

Oh man, it's a shame that you don't know the reasons why we're using bitcoin and yet you're still on this forum.

The exact reasons of using bitcoin in to hedge against such a devastating event, such as in case the USD fails. This could be brought about by any sort of bubble that is in the US economy, for example the 2008 housing bubble came real close to wrecking the whole financial system. After all, the government is in charge of the economy, and they are going to do wrong things.

e.g. after 2008 the government was in a pretty desperate situation to make the economy function correctly again. They decided to inflate the currency base, thus reducing the value of the dollar you hold in your wallet in the long run. It mightn ot reflect immediately due to sticky wages but it will reflect eventually.



Boy what can I tell you, you hold a belief and then anyone who doesn't agree is wrong, I see more reasons for Bitcoin to fail than for the USD, you know like the internet being wiped out, or a worm comes along and decimates all wallets, or simply people stop accepting Bitcoins as an exchange medium, because what backs Bitcoin? Only faith which is the same as for fiat currency but at least fiat has governments behind it . But I guess everybody has a right to his ideas so I will accept your ideas even though I don't agree with them.

Well I got here too late, I was going to apply for Spanish, even though I guess there are so many Spanish speakers getting the job should be difficult.
7  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: btc crossing 3,000 $ today ? on: June 23, 2017, 05:15:16 AM
I don't really expect it to pass $3000.00 today.

But signature campaigns are apparently only reasonably profitable for those with at least member status.
9  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will we ever see bitcoin lower than 1000$? on: June 23, 2017, 04:58:09 AM
Let's hope not.
10  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does experience matter in gambling? on: June 23, 2017, 04:53:06 AM
No, experience doesn't matter in games of chance like dice and slot machines, now if there is a certain skill required, then yes experience helps.
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: what is the future of the crazy ICO market? on: June 23, 2017, 04:39:17 AM
I too think ICO's will crash, eventually there will be no one willing to invest in them.
12  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think billionaires invest in BTC? on: June 23, 2017, 04:25:15 AM
Yes, I believe Richard Branson owner of Virgin Air who is a billionaire has invested in Bitcoin, so probably others have too.
13  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Europa League/Champions League Lounge on: June 23, 2017, 04:17:10 AM
Some years back you could expect surprises lately when the favorite teams appear to be in trouble there is always a referee's helping hand, so the same teams always win.
14  Economy / Economics / Re: Are cryptocurrencies better than regular currency on: June 23, 2017, 04:08:40 AM
Better in what way? For buying stuff they aren't better, but I do think the capacity to hold them in a wallet on your computer is quite a nice attribute.
15  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can gambling help you with your life? on: June 23, 2017, 04:04:05 AM
Gambling can be entertaining, it can also be habit forming and lead you down a very dark road, the only way I can see gambling helping you in your life is if you win a large amount of money and once you do you quit gambling. Of course winning that money is the hard part.
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][ICO] Minexcoin - A new era of payments (ICO closed!) on: June 23, 2017, 03:48:05 AM

17  Economy / Economics / Re: Is bitcoin now the strongest currency in the world? on: June 23, 2017, 03:41:35 AM
In the virtual world I guess it is, it has along way to go to be the strongest in the real world.
18  Other / Politics & Society / Re: why most products now are made in China? can we trust these products? on: June 23, 2017, 03:27:22 AM
Probably because they are producing good stuff at cheaper prices?
19  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can cryptocurrency make real money disappear? on: June 23, 2017, 03:18:20 AM
I don't think so, at least not any time soon.
20  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is BTC for you? on: June 23, 2017, 03:05:33 AM
For me Bitcoin is an opportunity to make money without having to move from home.
