Yes you can believe in the bitcoin for sure, the future of the bitcoin itself is very bright this is because of different reasons and happenings that are gonna be unwrapped in the future.
One of them is of course the halving that is coming this summer, it will let you make profit for sure.
Another fact is that bitcoin is growing globally all over the world so that is another reason why you should believe.
1082  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: paypal or bitcoin? on: March 11, 2016, 04:02:50 PM
I would go for the bitcoin because its better with their security, the bitcoin has a faster system and also the fact it cannot get limited.
One time I already experienced that my paypal account was hacked..
I believe that when your Paypal was hacked it was your problem and you can not blame them for it. in this case, bitcoin is the same, your wallet may get hacked if your PC has some viruses or malwares.
But I completely agree with you that using btc is a complete freedom, there is no limitations or charge back like in PP

Indeed the limitations are really the reason for most people using the bitcoin, you can do everything with the bitcoins its fully controlled by yourself.
Also the fact the bitcoin itself is easy and the Paypal is really annoying if you ask me because of the fact they are limit your account pretty fast if they do not trust it..
1083  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Never trust an online wallet, for those who don't know on: March 11, 2016, 03:54:41 PM
Well I think you can trust online wallets but the fact is just do not use them for large(big) amounts of bitcoins because you will get targeted by hackers for sure.
If you got a high number of bitcoins just do them in a cold storage or paper wallet I think that is the safest you can do.
Also do not go talk about that you have a lot of bitcoins big time...
1084  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you consider trading as gambling? on: March 11, 2016, 03:47:01 PM
I think trading can be considered as gambling due to the fact you are almost doing the same, also the point that you need a luck rate is a reason why it can considered as gambling.
Trading can be very good but it can also let you lose a lot of bitcoins if you ask me.
1085  Economy / Speculation / Re: How long is Bitcoin life? on: March 11, 2016, 03:41:05 PM
BTC is going up and up daily..
May be come down also in the Future.
I want to know How long is BTC life?
what is that important thing that will control BTC price?

Thanks
i would says that we never know how long BTC will life because in this world everything could happen and currently just spend your bitcoin for your hobbies or for your daily needs


As long as the bitcoin is developed actively, and adopts to the new environment, I think it will live for very long time.

Well overall this is difficult to say of course, but I think it will survive a lot of economical disasters.
My prediction is that its still gonna be alive in about 20 years from now, if this is not the point there is most likely some other digital currency that is used a lot and is almost the same as the bitcoin.
I must say I have a lot of faith in the bitcoin so I think it will have a long life for sure.
1086  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you actively spend your bitcoins? on: March 11, 2016, 03:34:37 PM
No I do not spend them very active, I buy some digital good now and than but mostly I'm doing nothing with them they are just in my good secured wallet.
Also the fact is that I do not want to spend too much bitcoins due to the halving that is coming I think its not smart to do.
1087  Other / Off-topic / Re: Bank or Bitcoin Wallet? on: March 11, 2016, 03:29:50 PM
I would go for the bitcoin wallet due to the reason I have for using it, plus its also very good secured.
1. My first reason is that its easy and fast to use.
2. My second reason is because the bitcoin can be transferred to any country globally, due to the point my family lives in another country so I can transfer them money easily.
3. My last reason is its self controllable you are the one that is behind the ropes no body else.
1088  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Signature Campaigns: Worth The Time? on: March 11, 2016, 11:32:22 AM
Its pretty profitable in the overall experience, you have to offer some spare time for it but its really worth it because you are earning 100% free bitcoins, there is no method that is better than it also.
Plus its fast, but I must say it also lays about your rank on the forum of course.
1089  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is their any safe methods to gamble? on: March 11, 2016, 11:17:12 AM
The better method is play small amount or stop Gambling this is good for you.

Or never try it at all.. But the best really is to control your self or put a limit in up to how much you want to lose in gambling, and just put it in schedule on when you will gamble, never use your whole day doing it, or else you will lose both bitcoin and earnings in real life..

Yup! I have done this a couple of times in controlling my betting and the amount that I will spend in gambling I have lessen my losses since then and it is now OK for me to accept if I loss because it is just small amount if all that amount lose then I try again some other day or the day I could play.
There is not any safe methods to gamble. You need to play safe and that is just by yourself and we cant help you or something.
You just have to play with small amounts and that you must know that gambling is very bad to do.

Indeed, like almost every one is saying here is that gambling is always a risk, and if you gamble you are taking the risk to win money but also lose money.
There are no safe methods because its luck you need, its all or nothing if you ask me.
Although in fact you can gamble a sort of safe because you can always use low bets and play games that require less more luck, like poker in my opinion.
1090  Economy / Speculation / Re: What if we sit at $310-$340 for 2 more years? on: March 11, 2016, 11:11:26 AM
Well this will never happen so why should we think about it, the point is already that the price is gonna increase this year due to the halving so it already will never be stuck at such a price.
Another thing is that the bitcoin is growing and is getting more popular over the whole globe so that is also why I do no see this happen by any chance.
1091  Economy / Economics / Re: Why have Bitcoin instead of cash? on: March 11, 2016, 11:05:37 AM
Well the first thing what is nice about bitcoin instead of cash you cannot forget it, because if you have a cellphone you can make payments.
The second reason why its better is because you cannot lose it at all because its just in your safe wallet right ?
The last reason is that you can also easily transfer it to someone else on every moment to pay something for them or something if they are in need of money, only a few moments of waiting time.
1092  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do people around you think about Bitcoin ? on: March 11, 2016, 10:56:05 AM
Well people dont believe that its real money but i say to them that in 10 years time you will use bitcoin.

People won't believe, the reason is it has not got a physical form. Its really difficult to make people understand the digital form of money.
yeah to prove to people about bitcoin is difficult. because bitcoin has no form unlike gold.
many who people here underestimated in bitcoin Sad
Many people around me think that Bitcoin is a bad thing and that is not good. I hope that they will also use Bitcoin.
And that they must see that Bitcoin is very good to do and that it is also very safe to use it.

You even know people around you that are knowing the bitcoin, I do not even know people that know the bitcoin around me.
The I only know around 3 people that know the people and they all said they are thinking its bad because its get used by criminals a lot.
I think this is just not true, very currency is used by criminals but only the bitcoin is on the media with only bad things...
1093  Other / Off-topic / Re: When is it useful to borrow bitcoin? on: March 11, 2016, 10:50:30 AM
Its useful to borrow bitcoins bitcoins only if you in real need of them because otherwise you should just buy them right away.
Borrowing has a lot of disadvantages, and the lending fee is one of the disadvantages that is the biggest problem if you are borrowing it.
I think you can better just not do this because it has risks.
1094  Economy / Speculation / Re: BITCOIN to the moon" on: March 11, 2016, 10:33:28 AM
It will reach to the moon in future for sure but not in this year, we need to wait for a long time, as halving is on the way but it doesn't guarantee us that the value would reach the moon in the same year.

Exactly, price would be around $600 I guess after the halving but very interesting to see what would be the price after halving as no one is so sure where it would land after the halving.

$600 is not the expected "big" rise from halving, $600 is a normal rise in my opinion so it is not going to down from that price.
it is $1000 and more that is considered the big rally and the price goes down after that.

You are right, the 600 dollar is nothing compared what can happen with the price when the halving has been done.
If you think about the fact the price can already rise to a amount of 500 dollar next month so 600 dollar is nothing for the halving, the halving will let price go to amount near the 1000 dollar.
1095  Economy / Speculation / Re: I AM HODLING on: March 10, 2016, 10:37:35 PM
I am hodling, but ETH is making me cry with envy haha

Same. It's weird how your emotions play on you.  I passed on buying at $2, now I can't believe I'm actually thinking of buying at $12.  Please talk me out of it.  My logical side says--look at that chart, it's parabolic up, while it might continue a little further, a correction is imminent.  Whereas my emotional side is saying "jump ship! this time is different! get in while you can! you're still an early adopter!"

Also, the ethereum volume on google trends is less than bitcoin in 2011.. does this mean that the price rise is being driven by a few whales as opposed to lots of people buying?

ETH is just insanity at the moment. I think another way of analyzing it is by looking at the volume across the top 10 alts lately. During the past month or two they've all gone up about 10x, 20x, 30x in (BTC) volume. If it was just ETH in isolation I'd have an easier time believing it was based on fundamentals.

I think your assessment is correct, "it's parabolic up, while it might continue a little further, a correction is imminent"
It is very good that you are holding now. Everyone is waiting for a price increase and that will be very good. But you never know what will happen in the future.
But the halving is also coming so that is very good and the most people are also thinking that it will be more worth later.

Well, no one knows what is coming and what is gonna happen with the bitcoin, but what is speculated the most is that the bitcoin will grow for sure in his users but also in his price.
So that is already a point why holding could be really smart, to gain a lot of bitcoins.
Also the upcoming years the bitcoin can go down but most likely and can only go better with it there are already a lot of company's that made the step to accepting the bitcoin in the first quarter of this year.
1096  Economy / Speculation / Re: 400 will not hold on: March 10, 2016, 10:01:58 PM
I think that we'll hit 1200-2000$ after halving. Mining will be still profitable for miners with electricity bill under 0.08$/kWh - You will mine less bitcoins but +- the same amount of $ as on price 380-450$ Smiley
My prediction: Price will hit 2500+ $ after halving and stable price will be around 1500$.

i can sure halving will not giving too much affect,halving just will make the price go up 2x and i dont think more than it,the rest depend on another factor

The halving will take the price to $800. Then the block size increase to 2MB or higher will double the price again.

I am not sure about the exact price the halving will bring to the bitcoin, but it should rise in the long term.

It will go high in a long term due to the halving that is coming the halving is a really good thing for the bitcoin because the price will got to a high amount for sure so that is pretty nice.

I think we just need patience till this will happens, and its also that its getting bigger(the bitcoin).

there is no way to predict how the effect of halving is going to be, or even know when it is going to kick in. but for me one thing is for sure. and that is the fact that the price of bitcoin is going to grow so much more than what it did in the last big rise, because there is much more investors in bitcoin now than last time.

We shall know the effect of halving after the halving itself. So all the prediction of the halving effect is just speculation.

Of course its just speculation, the bitcoin itself is not even to predict, so the halving is for sure not to predict.
The halving price and risings are all speculation no one knows how the halving will unwraps itself on the market.
I think the 400 dollar will hold tight but it go a bit lower but after that little moment it will go back fast to a bit over the 400 dollar till the halving comes.
1097  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: March 10, 2016, 09:53:49 PM
Well, a while ago I was considering this but the fact is that I have my own company and I already doing this.
My company is doing back end stuff for big company's that require big databases, when I just sit in my room at my company I'm mostly trading bitcoins and mostly looking for good profitable investments for the bitcoin itself, its not full time but like the halve of my hours I'm doing this, my employees are doing the stuff that need to be done.
1098  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC to 5000$ soon on: March 10, 2016, 07:06:55 PM
I do not see this happen at all because of the bitcoin can reach this year maybe 1200 dollar max but there it stops in my eyes.
The bitcoin can reach this amount over the years but not soon and maybe it will even never reach this amount, the bitcoin is not to predict of course.
1099  Other / Off-topic / Re: Getting My First Whole Bitcoin? on: March 10, 2016, 06:46:59 PM
You first bitcoin can be gained easily, but the fact is that the most methods are just very slow to really gain one bitcoin.
The best thing is of buying the bitcoin, its easy,fast and will be profitable.
Another thing that is possible is doing a signature campaign because its easy and 100% profit plus you can learn from it too.
1100  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will never reach $700 again on: March 10, 2016, 06:32:32 PM
We will the 700$ bitcoin price or even higher before/after the halving, chinese miner are holding the their btc and whales are manipulating the price so its not impossible that we will see the 700$ or much even higher price.

chinese miners and whale are the same person, chinese miners hold an insane amount of coin, they have 60% of the net

they work together to manipulate any exchange, 60% of total mined coins is more than 2k coins per day, now do per 365 and at least per two years
There will be a time that it will reach the 700. But you cant know when it will happen and that is quite bad.
We all hope of course that it will be more worth, so that will be very good, but we must wait and see.
Exactly, there's always uncertainties even on other commodities. I'm thinking that the price can hit $700 but what we don't know is at what price will people start selling to gain their profits.

Yes this is true, the bitcoin will go easily to the amount of 700 dollar soon or later, most likely because of the halving this year.
But the fact is already what you are saying what is gonna happen if everyone is gonna sell to make profit because of that.

My conclusion is that its just a matter of time before we will see this because its not to predict right now.
