Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Price going back to $250???
|
on: January 02, 2016, 12:59:37 PM
|
Being sceptical on the recent price rises that were not backed by any fundamental news, I really don't think we go back to $250. that is too far. We may retest down to $350 but going anywhere lower would require already some really bearish news (regulation?). It shouldn't happen, but there may be always something unexpected in goverments' sleeves.
Isn't that always the indicator when the price plummets into a downward spiral. Bearer of bad news  Getting back to the topic, $250 is a long ways a way to get too from $184 away. It would seem silly if it did that in this month alone. |

Already did sir, but seems they are not replying to me. They do have the most horrid customer relation skills I have seen for a casino. This attitude does make them look bad and not garner them anymore customers in the future. Maybe they just make enough from their current customers that they don't care much for the others. |

Bitcoin hit $1,000,000: buy an island and just sit on beach sipping mojitos. Bitcoin hit $1,000 again: Nothing just keep watching the world pass by sipping my mojitos. Bitcoin stayed where it was: Be where I am today  Bitcoin became worthless, or a few cents: Nothing, it wouldn't matter to me really  |

if you think about it's the same for fiat, why many different fiat currency, why many different wallet, see them as why many different payment processor, skrill, paypal etc...
the benefit of bitcoin is the security and the low cost, the transaction don't take longer than with fiat, fiat actually take much longer to confirm, but since everyone use it, they basically agree to accept it without confirmation
ponzi and theft are present in fiat world too, so no difference...
Very well said! Understanding how fiat works beyond the simple transactions performed everyday (the internal mechanics and even worse the policies applied by central banks) is something that is not remotely understood by the large majority of people using fiat. Me included  Watch Bitcoin: The end of money as we know it documentary. They explain it as simple as you can get. I mean about how they just borrow from one bank to another and not really have any physical money (fiat) at all when you do transactions through them. |

I would like to buy my groceries and be able to walk into a gas station and then pay my bill with bitcoin. Other than that, I can buy all I need with bitcoin.
I think amazon offers this ability to buy groceries online and have them delivered (not by drone  ) The payment system I don't know if accept bitcoin but it is worth it too see if they do anyways. |

When there is money to be made, there are always people that find a way to benefit at the expense of others.
Using common sense may help you from falling for the very obvious scams, but some are really extensive.
Just remember, if it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.
Words that will make your life in bitcoin a hell of a lot easier. Live by those simple set of rules and you will make it through this without being a victim of a con artist. |

This is a common occurrence on blockchain.info
this has been happening since the spring/summer of last year. I don't think it is a ddos "attack" per se. Just a lot of incoming transactions that the network can not handle all sent at one given time. Non intentionally that is, so not an attack just the normal activity from bitcoin users sending and receiving their transactions.

Bank charges service charges that cost as much as the money some people have in their bank accounts. They just use them to get their pay cheques deposited then withdraw them as soon as they hit the account. Leaving hardly anything left. With a bitcoin wallet you can decide how much of a fee you want the miners to garish off your sending amount. So +1 for bitcoin wallet on that point |

I thought it can be use for trading. There are few platform that can be use for trading.? I personally never use it yet that just what i think.. Anyway btckan OP not really active anymore in this forum.. That is what I thought initially when I downloaded the app. It has a place to send and receive coins so it would be obvious that you could trade on there too. Unless you need to upgrade your account some how to be able to put toward the exchanges listed. BTW, thanks for the answer for this question coinzat! |

Well this is a surprise. I haven't used them before but will look into them next time I am placing a major sport bet. I have been using the lesser sites and have not made any thing to show for it unfortunely. I will try them now for this year since seeing the results of this poll.
