182  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How can I publish my book for Bitcoin? on: March 04, 2015, 09:27:37 PM
Try using http://satoshibox.com. It is very easy to use all you need is upload your ebook and send your links to potential buyers. They can't download it if they didn't pay.

Also try cryptothrift.com I saw some books has been sold there.
seconding this , op should use all possible websites tho , will generate a better revenue : ) i also belive satoshibox takes close to no fee's while the other websites take quite some.
183  Other / New forum software / Re: How the "One Million Dollar" forum looks like ? on: March 04, 2015, 09:23:53 PM
Yes, the project is still on and a public beta should be expected soon. In my opinion it has a pretty slick design.
you should , as Redsn0w mentioned upload some preview pictures. We'd be really happy to see them : >

There has been a posted preview pic of the new forum, I saw it before, but I can't find it again. Will update here if I can find it.

It is old. It is from December. I think a lot of changes have been made after that.

Where can we find it MZ ? cause i got really intrested now , and want to see it : >
if you could link it for me i wouldnt be able to thank you enough.

The only thing I would consider a valid change will be ability to pick skins for this forum. It would be great if we could pick certain color schemes. I got accustomed to bitcointalk and I do not want big changes simple look is an advantage rather than a flaw.
I think the idea of having multiple skins is a good idea , maybe we could even make a way to change it ourselfs? cant be to hard , just have to make a page for it where you can edit it with any colors you want :>
185  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do you deny evidence? bitcoin has deluded all us on: March 04, 2015, 09:20:07 PM
Here's your evidence:

BTC =\= Dollar Price

BTC = BTC

When 1BTC = 1BTC and you can use that 1BTC anywhere in the world, the price won't matter.

Don't look at Bitcoin as a get rich scheme.  Go to a casino for that.
did you just reccomend him to go to a casino if he wants to get rich?  Roll Eyes
not the wisest thing : >
186  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do you deny evidence? bitcoin has deluded all us on: March 04, 2015, 09:04:58 PM
I don't look at price. I look at how many places I can spend my coins. Things look great to me. Just a year ago it was hard to find places. These days there are new choices every week. I thought that would take ten years, but wow, here we are.

The reasons I no longer use credit/debit cards:

1. They are unsafe and outdated. In the US we still use magnetic stripes. Yes really. How stupid is that? No wonder I'm on my third replacement card in a year.  

2. There are a million rules about where, who and how I can pay on the internet. I no longer obey those foolish rules. I buy whatever I want from anyone I chose no matter where they are. I travel a lot and when I do I look for places to spend my BTC. No swapping currencies back and forth.

3. Speed. This is more of a benefit to retailers, but I like it also. When I hit send and pay, it's over. The retailer does not have to wait days or weeks to verify my identity like a card. Within minutes the transaction is irreversible and the seller can ship with confidence.

4. Price. I can send a million dollars for a few cents. With dollars it costs me dollars to send dollars abroad. F that.

5. No trust needed. BTC is the only money in history that does not require trust. It can't be manipulated like issued money. It is the only fair money that can be used on the internet. Gold is also fair, but impractical.
So when you say there is no reason to use bitcoin I think you mean that you don't understand bitcoin. If you did I believe you would not see a reason to ever use dollars.


The only reason for using dollars atm , is because its hard to find ( atleast where i live ) to find a store that sells anything for bitcoins. its kind of crazy that everyone havent gotten adopted to bitcoin yet. but i guess it takes time : l
187  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do you deny evidence? bitcoin has deluded all us on: March 04, 2015, 09:02:13 PM
Honestly , i have no idea what you're doing here. You've said that people like simple stuff , tell me what's most simple

1. having to go to a bank , get a credit card etc etc and pay some fee's AND have to replace this card multiple times?
OR
2. downloading a wallet to your mobile then paying easily with your phone , without having to bring credit cards to stores etc?
Bitcoin is simpler in that way , and bitcoin can get even simplier than banks at sending cash aswell ( attaching names to your adress etc )


" People are stupid and gets used to simple things. "
No , people are not stupid. FIAT is being used because everyone else is using it , once masses starts adopting the ones you called " stupid " will start adopting aswell , but only once we get better marketing , adoption etc.
ALSO , bitcoin is alot of simplier in the fact that you can use it worldwide , currently you have to adopt to the country's currency ( assuming you're using fiat )

" Most people dont like change "
this is true , but the usage of bitcoin is growing , and if everyone quits there's no choice for the others when the other currencies start crashing due to lack of usage.
and remember , the only ones losing on bitcoin is banks. Companies will save millions , customers will save millions. its not free for companies to accept credit cards etc just so you know. bitcoin is (basically)

" There is no real reason why bitcoin should be mass adopted "

* Close to no fee's
* No middleman ( dont have to risk bank getting robbed etc )

" Security and misstakes "

While i agree this is a big current issue with bitcoin , atm you need to read on abit to have your funds safe while with a bank you could just deposit it. ( but its pretty damn hard to lose your offline wallet , unless you download some wallet stealer or upload it online )
however , this will NOT be an issue , its simple to make it alot easier remember bitcoin is not so old , it needs developing on those parts. However banks are not very safe either , and like to freeze people's accounts etc.

" Sudden loss in value "
this is ONLY because its not adopted by everyone yet. once our market cap becomes bigger price wont be so easily manipulated.

" Bitcoin will slowly be forgotten "

I have no idea why you'd ever think so mate. I hope i changed your mind. if not , please tell me the issue
I dont know what gave you these thoughts , bitcoin is fking revelutionary man.
188  Economy / Speculation / Re: Fair Price of Bitcoin: $518? on: March 04, 2015, 08:47:34 PM
pfff i would be happy if it comes back to 300 dollars im not even thinking about 500
300 dollars is only a few weeks away , dont worry. im thinking we'll get at 500 in maybe 2 Months or so ?
Price have slowly been going up , but been sinking because of people losing hopes ( exchanges getting hacked etc )
189  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Andreas Antonopoulos said Give Bitcoin Two Years on: March 04, 2015, 08:46:01 PM
2 years is indeed , way to quick. People are rushing remember that usd for example is waaay older than bitcoin.
A currency doesnt only need to be good , it needs to get people to change to their currency. and we're humans , it takes alot of time for some to change.
190  Economy / Digital goods / Re: VPN Business For SALE on: March 04, 2015, 08:44:47 PM
You should open an auction in the marketplace imo , usually gets more attention for stuff like these. however,  what's the price ? : )
191  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Buy BTC in S Korea nada? on: March 04, 2015, 01:52:17 PM
I looked on Local bitcoin,nothing for South Korea.
I would have thought,such a tech savvy nation would be onto it?
Your thoughts..........
is bitcoin even allowed in south korea? , anyways if it is i'd reccomend looking at the nation wide services instead . or maybe buy privately from someone on this forum : >
Wish you best of luck!
192  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: A reliable faucet list for newbies with an average profit >500 satoshi/claim on: March 04, 2015, 01:50:46 PM
Those are helpful.


But all of those are ref links.
what's the issue with ref links honestly ? people took their time to make a thread and share the info , its the least people can give back.
193  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How many confirmations does it take to verify the deposit? on: March 04, 2015, 01:49:31 PM
At least 5 confirmations, to be on the safe side.
saying that you're on the safe side with 5 confirmations , is like saying 20% is considered safe. '-'
194  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How many confirmations does it take to verify the deposit? on: March 04, 2015, 01:48:31 PM
aslong as you dont do very big trades , 1 confirmation is above enough Smiley to be extremly safe go for 10-15 + ( 100 btc + ) or maybe you're just very safe about your coins.
195  Other / Off-topic / Re: Are you spending your Bitcoin? on: March 04, 2015, 01:45:49 PM
We have 20 BTC from donations and we don't think to spend them in our 3 years plan.
so in 3 years , your gonna be a millionaire. please share once you become one , since i dont have enough bitcoins to become one at this moment : > and cant afford either kek
196  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: where should I post? on: March 04, 2015, 01:44:39 PM
I think you should go to service and offer the job there
i doubt this is a good idea , people that are there depseratly wants a job , writers already have one. OP you should contact an established one , maybe try to ask JDEBUNT to write about it ? Smiley
197  Economy / Economics / Re: why do people agree to pay taxes? on: March 04, 2015, 01:43:28 PM
because i will go to jail if i didn't pay it Sad
the gov force me to pay taxes, and said it for developing my country
but in fact, many tax money is corrupted by bad individual in government

True. Some, if not all of the money that came from tax were used not in projects related to improving and developing the country, but to the politicians themselves. Very evident in my country. Sad thing.

Politicians taking their cut is nothing new.
The problem comes when that is all they do.
Politicians and diapers should both be changed regularly - and for the same reason.

Good one, but what to do when some politicians are glued to their chairs? Take Putin for instance, the guy changed the constitution to stay in power.

Depending on what you believe, a higher power has already set an unavoidable term limit for all humans.  Sometimes nothing can be done, but eventually even Putin will need to relinquish his position.

TT
Dont you know , putin has more bitcoin that all of us together. Putin is the creator of bitcoins my friend , and he's gonna make sure all the russians in the world starts using it.
198  Economy / Economics / Re: Help me understand... on: March 04, 2015, 01:42:11 PM
There is no way to explain to you , because there's nothing to understand. people just simply things that the FIAT system is working great , and that this bitcoin thing is just bad. once the fiat system crash ( if ever ) bitcoin will skyrocket.
199  Economy / Economics / Re: pump and dump on: March 04, 2015, 01:38:32 PM
isn't this what people want? if nothing happens people complain and say it's boring.
ride the waves and make profit.
indeed , people always want what they THINK they dont want. humanity man.. : )
OP , this is already happening incase you havent noticed Wink
