5481  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is it possible to buy bitcoins by paypal? on: October 26, 2016, 10:40:52 AM
Of course it's possible. There are lot of people trading Bitcoin for PayPal. Even on localbitcoins there are many sellers who will trade Bitcoin for PayPal. But I wouldn't recommend this option because you will lose a lot for the price is much higher if you use this method. And you can also get scamed, which is not less important.
I will not prefer this method because here a lot of scammers are there. I lost my money in this process. I did trade with Bitgold, and some people cheated me. I lost my Bitgold and money both. So I don't trust Paypal payment. Dealing with Paypal account is very risk I don't recommend this to anyone.
Yeah, it is simply a bad idea, to try to buy bitcoin with PayPal there are many obstacles and problems to cover; in the other hand buying PayPal with bitcoin is extremely easy here in the forum.

the struggle of having clients who are going to buy bitcoin with paypal is because the possibilities of getting chargedback and blindly approved by paypal,sometimes their paypal also unverified or even stolen paypal that will actually giving a big effect to the seller's account,it may possibly getting limited and the money will be taken back by the original owner
5482  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin better or paypal? on: October 26, 2016, 10:32:17 AM
bitcoin still the best
you hold balance bitcoin you can potential grow your money
you hold balance paypal is nothing grow


No argument about this, bitcoin is really the best and upon using paypal I had experience a very lot of problems with them.

And don't forget the transaction fees thing if we are going to compare them both, and bitcoin is going to be the winner on it for it has very cheap fees.

Unlike paypal, their transaction fees are just like gold.
If you look at how the fees of Bitcoin are prioritized right now, then the average fee value will come very close to $0.20 per transaction.

If this is going to continue, then we can't bring up the low fees of Bitcoin as a significant advantage over any other payment service anymore.
it's still far cheaper than the most used service such as paypal that having fees about " 2.9% plus $0.30 USD of the amount you receive" just imagine if you sent $1000 then you will end up paying so much money to paypal for only sending money,while with bitcoin it's just matter how big your transaction size and just multiply with the current fees/bytes
5483  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Best Platform To Trade on: October 26, 2016, 10:29:17 AM
i do recommend a popular exchanger that having such a high volume on its 24 hours activities and it's poloniex and bittrex,these two are the best and suitable ones for me,no doubt about its useful feature,many newbies also begin to trade on these sites but be careful when your email just revealed somewhere,you will get a "forgot password emails" bruteforce,but it's not going to be a problem as long you can manage to keep your account safe,just enable 2fa though
higher volume mean faster trading activities and you can do short term buy and sell
5484  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is Freedom on: October 26, 2016, 10:27:09 AM
Yeah I agree bitcoin is freedom.. because I can do anything online from whatever bitcoin can offer.. like playing casinos which can bring so much fun and entertainment.

It isn't 100% freedom. Yeah, you can do stuff like going on the dark web and buying illegal stuff but it's still risky ne caise the governments can track you down anytime. I have even heard the FBI categorizes you as a criminal in the first second you're opening Tor already, so you can be taken down at any time. Be careful about it.
definitely right and agree with the first point,but how the heck FBI could detect someone who just opening TOR,the point of using tor is to be untraceable and anonymous isn't it,if it's were useless for FBI and they still can trace us,so why the heck we still use TOR,then TOR is really fucked up is that is actually true
5485  Economy / Economics / Re: How good are you at managing your money on: October 26, 2016, 10:23:19 AM
I think managing money doesnt fully dependent on salary,because if you have habits like gambling or drinking then you cant even manage high salary and one can manage small salaries as well if he spend carefully.

That is what called managing the money in a good way, if you have a small salary and still it fits your needs well and you still save something out if it and sometimes even if you have a big salary you still wont be able to do everything you want nor you can save anything out of it, it all depends on the ways you spend your money.
living don't need that much of money to be honest,with small salary you can still live,the lifestlye is the only factor that make your live consumtive especially if you have such a big monthly salary you will really want to buy anything that is interesting,and the other is those habits that had been mentioned above
5486  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: Bitcoin related Advertising Platforms are increasing, Is it a good thing? on: October 26, 2016, 10:20:44 AM
Not really good because,
-Most ads comes from HYIP/ponzi/scam investment.
-The owner of advertising platforms don't care much about user got scammed.
-The users/views are very limited to bitcoiner/geek/nerd (for now)
-Too many low quality ads from what i've seen & very annoying.

Based on my experience, i've only seen few advertising which is interesting and not annoy me when i surfing.
i do agree with these points,most of ads which comes from advertising platform mentioned above are really annoying,especially with the image which destroy the simplicity of the website and when the website owner setting up any ads such as pop ads which popping up suddenly for every clicks it's really disturbing
5487  Economy / Economics / Re: Passive Income on: October 26, 2016, 09:39:48 AM
I need to work for my income in bitcoins, and more I work or more luck I have, more monthly profit will be. I didn't find alternative way of making money, passive income require investment in some service, or bank, stocks. I'm simply not ready to get in some business like that one, I don't have enough knowledge and I have limited amount of money.

I think you do not need a lot of knowledge and skills to earn passive income simply because there are many methods of passive income, such as getting a referral faucet?
Knowledge is till important as without knowledge you will not be able to think of the right strategy to have a passive income. And to tell you, people who think of making passive income and especially those who already receiving income are intelligent people as they think outside the box.
having passive income don't need that much knowledge,you're skilled on one thing then you can make passive income out of it,i doubt those who had invested on many projects and make a passive income all of them are smart people with knowledge instead of the fact that there's rich man who had too much money and still want to grow it without specific knowledge on these projects categories
5488  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can bitcoin be blocked too by the government or isp ?? on: October 26, 2016, 09:35:28 AM
It can, obviously. You can get it blocked by them if the government wants, just like there are websites in North Korea that are blocked from any other country to be visited. I'm aware of that but I don't think they will do anything about it for now, as it's not really a big thing.
well only wallet and bitcoins related site,blocking bitcoin(currencies) is impossible in my opinion,some ISP can only block a contenct by its server IPs,and does bitcoin have IPs? i think no,and that's why it's decentralized
5489  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: bitcoin transactions - Slow OR Fast on: October 26, 2016, 09:32:38 AM
It not stable for now, I have been waiting for my bitcoin for almost 4 hours and still it is unconfirmed in the blockchain, I hope this problem will not happen most of the time and although this happens I am quite positive that this is due to massive demand of bitcoin.
that's actually the real struggle here for bitcoin to become a currencies that getting used to shopping in an offline world,no one want to wait for a confirmation,even the merchants enable zero confirmation,then the merchants will have the risk of getting double spend transaction
5490  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Unconfirmed Transactions Problem on: October 26, 2016, 09:30:37 AM
i guess 40k transactions which are now currently waiting also included with microtransaction which only having small fees that actually and the transaction that's lack of fees and having low priority,you just need to set the proper fees to get high priority,and i think 1mb is not a problem for now,it's just my opinion by the way
5491  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin be replaced by another cryptocurrency? on: October 25, 2016, 10:46:15 AM
I don't think that happens, and if so happens this possibility is far for now. even with ethereum, the bitcoin has remained strong and I hope it stays that way for at least a decade.
Though we cannot completely strikeout that there will be no other cryptocurrency to overtake bitcoin, but the probability of such event happening is indeed very minimimal or it may take a very long time and efforts to come by.
well by just seeing another alts which gaining its popularity in short period or in other word "very fast" such as ethereum or even icomoni as the next because its ICO was succesfull gather thousands of bitcoin,it will be such a serious competitor for bitcoin in the future and not very minimal chance to overtake bitcoin's place
5492  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is Freedom on: October 25, 2016, 10:41:26 AM
Actually it is really free. Not that it is free to get but in terms of ownership no one can say he owns bitcoin. That is why it is decentralizeda making it hard for government institutions to put a tax in it. There is no way they could that in bitcoin itself but with wallet exchanges they could.
you don't know that government will do anything which is still having possibilities to be done especially if it were about money because money can't grow on tree,there's still a way to tax these bitcoin users,by taxing the merchant who accepts bitcoin,the merchant will automatically increasing the price of the stuff and thus bitcoin users getting taxed indirectly
5493  Economy / Economics / Re: The Future of Money? on: October 25, 2016, 10:35:15 AM
The future of money is, that most probably paper money will be replaced with plastic money. But paper money will be in use many years ahead. Many poor countries from Asia, etc. are using only paper money, they do not have Internet connections in shops - so, they can not use credit cards.  Grin
Paper money can not be replace of plastik money like credit card becuase paper money is use all over the world and it is hard to replace it as you sais many country poor they can not provide to get a credit card so nothing can replace our paper money.
are you sure with "plastic money" ? credit card is not a plastic money because credit card is actually digitalize your fiat to make your transaction in digital world simple and instant,it's not plastic money at all if you are actually know what it is
5494  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Steam accepting btc - will it affect the forum market? on: October 25, 2016, 10:32:03 AM
Huh I still not see this function in my Steam account. Anyone tried this ?
If Steam update this payment, it would be affect the market a lot, many people selling games through this gate.
you must had gotten out from your cave recently didn't you?  Grin
*you will see this function when you're going to pay the stuffs you need and there will be appear few methods to pay the bill so just choose bitcoin
*it's already implemented on steam so there's no "if steam update this payment",and yeah it'd affect the market because people would prefer to buy through steam directly
5495  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to make an ESCROW? on: October 25, 2016, 10:18:58 AM
You can find someone trusted escrow services on the Internet or you can also find some members here who are offering this kind of services. If you use members on this forum I suggest to find someone with good trust and recommendations. Maybe is the best option to use someone you know and trus, like a friend or so.
you must not read the main post didn't you,he's talking about how to be an escrow and not finding the escrowers or any person who offering this service
--------------------------------------------
if it was from my opinion to be an escrow you need :
1. a bunch of good feedback or rating from people who had made or had done deals with you in the past,not the fake ones
2. be sure you can control your mind from turning out to be scammer
3. building up trust by doing such a good activities on specific place and giving proof that you won't running with money
5496  Economy / Economics / Re: Best way for steady income on: October 25, 2016, 10:14:31 AM
Personally, I do not know of any way to generate passive income in Bitcoin. All methods require my participation. I have to work hard to get your Bitcoin

There are ways to earn passive income, but it is risky, and I think not advisable to just use your money.. Others use their big capital to earn steadily without doing anything just by investing and lending... I too do effort to earn and it is easier that way and without too much risk, only effort...  Smiley
the risk of having passive income is fair i guess,unless you're investing on ponzi scheme then the risk is not worthy,passive income always gives you an  income in specific basis without putting any effort on it and when the risk is losing your money then it's not going to be a problem,be sure to invest on real project not the shitty ones as i have mentioned above
5497  Economy / Economics / Re: Currency v Property on: October 25, 2016, 10:12:05 AM
The currency is a kind of currency to which it can spend the people buy food and clothes . And many more things . The property also has the things that you own that you can buy or keep worrying . Such as house and land is your property that can cause to your future children . Because the currency finds that even if you do not have a property if you have money you can buy it.

Well you can invest both in currency and property but the point is that if you invest in property you do not have ready cash in you hand, and if some emergency situation arises, then you will be not in a position to handle it, even though you have the amount stuck in property. But investment in property is still a better choice.
those who invests on property must have had thought about the possibilities of in need of money in emergency situation so they are not going to invest their whole wealth into property,that's dumb move if they do
5498  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: OpenBazaar , a failure ? on: October 25, 2016, 10:07:23 AM
Yes, I consider it as a failure, considering that I've not heard anything about it since the release. I've even forgot about it Cheesy !
you don't know it doesn't mean it's failure,if you don't know about open bazaar it seems that you're not updated with the latest info of this forum or even missed it,as you know even if openbazaar being an advertiser on google ads but they will only appear for traffic which having cookies about techy thing
5499  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Minimum Amount To Start Trading? on: October 24, 2016, 11:38:13 AM
Trading in altcoins can be started even at 0.001btc but that kind of trading doesnt worth any think,the minimum amount i say should be 0.25btc reserved for that.Its not neccessary to use them all at once,must that much must be in reserve.
even with 0.001 bitcoin you can make a good profit out of it if you can manage to always get profit,it's indeed will be cut off by the fees but only small percents so it's not going to be a problem,it's worth trying to be honest
5500  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is anyone interested in learning how to trade bitcoin for a living? on: October 24, 2016, 11:31:50 AM
$1,000 a day within few weeks is just a bit too good to be true but what's impossible in this world,as long if there's no suspicious thing such as require us to pay specific amount of money to follow the lesson there's nothing wrong,by the way,any specific requirements?
