7321  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's your biggest problem with Bitcoin on: June 22, 2016, 07:10:38 PM
Present price variation is big problem in Bitcoin. We are seeing lot of variation in last one month. Month before it was just 450$ but after that increase like a hell but now it is going to down. There is 100+$ down from yesterday so the main problem in Bitcoin is this.
i dont think that price fluctuation is a big problem to be honest, and i know that the price is going to bounce back

in my opinion the biggest problem is the confirmation times because it might take a long time for transactions to be confirmed

Agree, that price was not a problem in large bitcoin. The reason is indeed already since the beginning of the bitcoin appears, indeed the price changes depending on how mining conditions. So it is no problem at all and indeed what you said that the biggest problem is there in the confirmation in each transaction, sometimes there are transactions that are experiencing a confirmation more than 1 hour or even 1 day
The problem lies within the transactors itself. Back then, paying very low transaction fee is quite okay and doesn't take a long time for the tx to be confirmed but not anymore. There has been quite a fee race where old coins and larger tx fees are given better priority than of their counterparts.

if I were rich, I'm not going to gamble. I will use my wealth for more useful things and go on holiday with it to get pleasure

And don't forget to make more money out of that money!
Because anyone may get broke by just spending money without an income.
Rich or poor are the same when they don't know how to spend their money well, we have our own definition of being rich and others might be easily contented with the life that is simple but still has a financial freedom as they are living in the average lifestyle.

well, i believe that if you have became rich on your own and you are not inherently rich (your family's money) then it means that you know how to spend and how to earn money well. so these kinds of rich people will not gamble or will only do some small amount for fun.
i personally not doing gambling for to become rich. i do it just for time pass and getting fun.
That also means that if you get too rich you will still come to gamble ?
As you never intended to gamble because of earning and when you get rich you still have no reason to leave gambling ?
7323  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: June 22, 2016, 06:49:28 PM
Gambling is only addicting if you lose your mind trying get rich fast. I know we all are like that sometimes but it's bad to be like that all the time. It's bad for you, it's bad for your loved ones. Just think of it and stop being addicted forever.
Yes, may be emotions can make you quit gambling, if nothing else can. Though I think if you really want to quit gambling then get some proper treatment from doctors and may take sleeping pills to avoid gambling (but strictly with your physician prescription).
7324  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's stopping people from using bitcoin? on: June 21, 2016, 08:07:19 PM
Most likely convenience and ease of use.
No, convenience and ease of its use do not stop people from its usage, but these features enhance the interest of people in using bitcoin, people do not hate and run away from the convenience but they like to adopt a way which will be easy and convenient for them.
7325  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Should Bitcoin even have a future? on: June 21, 2016, 07:57:13 PM
there is a good future for what Bitcoin has for us.  it teaching us how to live conveniently using this currency
in our daily routine. so happy to have it!! Cheesy
Yes, it is right because of this currency a lot of people having financial problem are now living happily, as now they do not have any financial problem they are working online and are getting better benefit from bitcoin.
7326  Other / Off-topic / Re: What do you do with your btc? on: June 21, 2016, 07:40:56 PM
What i do with my Bitcoin are using it to bet in sports like euro 2016, Esports also I used some of my bitcoin in playing poker and the rest of my Bitcoin i just keep them in my Bitcoin wallet waiting for the right time to sell. and last i used it for emergency paying my bills that are near deadline.
With gambling you are just losing our money, it is the time to save your coins in your wallet to that you earn some money with halving price increase, and you should have to know that the profit of halving is much more bigger than gambling.
7327  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you were rich, would you still gamble? on: June 21, 2016, 07:12:59 PM
Betting makes (soccer) matches SOOO much more exciting, so I would definitely do it, even if I was REALLY rich.
You are right because when we dont have bets on a match ( sports ) then we feel bored and feel that there is no interest actually watching it, while when we have some money on it, we watch it with full interest.

I watch cricket only when I have bets on it. I would also gamble if I am rich or poor ( bet amount would vary for sure )
7328  Other / Off-topic / Re: Would you like to receive your salary in BTC? on: June 21, 2016, 01:59:31 PM
If you are a BTC lover, would you one day like to get your paycheck 100% in BTC?

Personally I won't. Because many facilities in my area doesn't support BTC payment. Smiley I do not mind receiving, say, 20% of my pay in BTC denomination.
As for my opinion, I prefer the BTC for my wages. I can increase the price of BTC. because when you accept your cash. cash really no hope rising. I'm right? but it just depends on the situation.

Cash/wages are meant for covering your daily regular spendings. Bitcoin in most of the cases should just be intact with exchanges to take advantages of the price fluctuations.

If in my case, I will accept bitcon instead of cash as my salary then that will just give me a doubt if I have to use it or not to support my daily needs since I care for the bitcoin price.

Just consider the bitcoin as a currency, so just like other currencies you will use your bitcoins on your daily needs whenever you need them and have to save your bitcoins if you feel now you have completed your needs and have to save.

Disagree. Im treating bitcoin more as an investment compare from being currency so spending them for daily needs will really have a hard time for me to decide.

But you know, if only most of the people will treat this as a currency then maybe I will go the flow but for now Im treating this as investment to make profits.
He is treating it as a currency that is why it is easy for him to manage like currency and is easy for him to trade and to spend and to save, you did not considered it as a currency till now and are considering it as investment so it will be harder for you to manage your bitcoins in normal times.
7329  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are you holding your bitcoin for a price increase? on: June 20, 2016, 07:54:50 PM
Of course I am holding on to my Bitcoins for the price increase, at the moment the price is on its way to $800 and when it hits that I am going to sell some coins that is for sure.
Not a bad choice. As for me, this kind of time is a really good time for trading because the price of bitcoin is playing around at $740-$790. Like many people are doing here: buy low sell high. The first and primary motto of traders, merchants even.
7330  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Should Bitcoin even have a future? on: June 20, 2016, 07:46:40 PM
off course have the bitcoin a future because there are so many people who are interested into the bitcoin and wanted to invest into it and that is nice fot the future.
Obviously, you didn't actually read op's post and replied simply answering the title. Well, the post was long but that's not necessarily an excuse because op was presenting possible ideas about what's actually happening behind.
7331  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ? on: June 20, 2016, 07:22:49 PM
you may block all gambling site in you pc... or try to find some new interesting things to do
This is not a good solution do you think it will work how about the local casinos you can still gamble in locally without online gambling..
So i think this is not the best to suggest for addiction.. better to go in psychiatrist first and ask for recommendation..
I think its not that easy to play in physical casinos because in not every city there is a gambling casino, moreover you might not feel comfortable playing in physical casinos as u feel when playing on dice sites at the comfort of your home.
7332  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How legal is to create betting/gambling site? on: June 20, 2016, 07:11:15 PM
I think to create our gambling site is not a problem if you have enough money means you can hire some developers and create your casino site, but the main issue is your account. Yes, many countries government will consider gambling as illegal, so if you show any bank account here, they catch you so here it is the main problem otherwise it is very easy.
Added to that in most of the countries, gambling is totally illegal, how will those guys make a gambling site then ? I think there is no need of licenses when you are creating a light gambling site for bitcoins. Though you might get n trouble later so be careful.
7333  Other / Off-topic / Re: What is your plan to get rich with Bitcoin? on: June 19, 2016, 08:05:45 PM
Plan to get rich, 1st i would keep being hard working, 2nd planning to start the business that it can offer bitcoin as mode of payment 3rd keeping my account active in signature campaign to earn some profit.

Yeah that is what i'm doing right now i also working hard for doing some signature campaign and i'm always saving bitcoin to earn some profit by holding them (especially now) and if i think that i get enough profit i will start my own business like what you said to continue earning bitcoin Grin.
i also have no flat money to invest in bitcoin. therefore i am earning bitcoin from a signatre campaign. but still i have determine to invest in bitcoin after earning and saving a goo amount of bitocin.
Don't worry there mate, I started the same way as you do. I didn't actually invested any money to bitcoins at first and got my first coins through faucets and signature campaigns and after about 2 months, I got 0.20BTC and holding on to them was the best choice I've ever done because I saw the value steadily going up.
7334  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I can't see it ever really catching on on: June 19, 2016, 08:00:22 PM
Unlucky them, I guess.
Them not seeing the potential of bitcoin isn't our problem. It's theirs. If they seem to really not believe, then I guess we'd leave them alone and be on our merry way getting bitcoins ourselves.

It would be fun to be able to say to their face "Told you so!" one day.
7335  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will never reach $700 again on: June 19, 2016, 07:50:23 PM
It easily reached this amount a couple days ago so that is good, I think it will rise more this year to the amount of 1000 dollar.
Many people never thought this was possible, I always believed in it to be honest.
There were a lot of people who were thinking that this value will not be achieved by bitcoin, and they were thinking like that because there are some people who support other altcoins and they created rumors against bitcoin.
7336  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you quit your day job to go full time on bitcoin? on: June 19, 2016, 07:46:05 PM
I don't know anybody who did it personaly, but i think that people who working like this, i mean full time on bitcoin, they know and understand what and how to do to make money for living.


People who has a day job usually makes the bitcoin world as their side line. They wanted to have multiple sources of income. People who are doing bitcoin in full time are mostly people who are people who basically can't get a job for some reasons. Although not everyone who's full time on bitcoin are uneducated, there are some people that chose to make Bitcoin as their day job. Maybe because they are earning much more in bitcoins and they want to focus on it, and they just see their previous day job as a disturbance to their bitcoin journey.
Right most of the people are using it for side incomes and to spend on their luxuries. I think what people should do is, keep doing job and earn with bitcoins and once you feel its time to switch to bitcoins for full time then just leave the job.
7337  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Best online wallet on: June 19, 2016, 07:39:54 PM
I have tried many different online wallets but after i bought a hardware wallet, the cheapest ledger one i feel more comfortable using bitcoin as consider like having the bitcoins on my hand, but from online wallets i would use coinbase as it pays for the transaction fees.

Hai sir, i have question whether our advantage to use it hadware wallet, rather than using our pc as a wallet? can u explain to me, thanks btw.

The hardware wallet is different than online wallets, the online wallets can be accessed from many devices (from the phone too) but hardware wallets should be linked to the computer and some of them like ledger can be plugged on phones too which support OTG.
Hardware wallets are safer than online wallets in terms of online hacking incidences, or at least that's what I think. However, it's just a personal opinion though, online wallets are more convenient for me because I can open them up wherever I am without having to bring my laptop around everywhere.
7338  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is your reason to gamble? Fun or profit? on: June 18, 2016, 08:54:18 PM
My reason for gambling - namely, playing poker, is for fun and profit and to improve my skills, which all goes hand in hand.

I enjoy playing poker even when I am losing. It's kind of like a chess aficionado who enjoys playing chess even when he loses. Always working to learn, improve his game and become a more skilled player. Add in the fact that the more skilled you become, the chances of you making profit from lesser skilled players increases, makes it that much more rewarding.
I love to play sports betting instead because I am too bad at poker Sad .
I have been doing good with sports betting and the main motive is fun and some times profit or both, though I prefer fun over profit always.
7339  Economy / Speculation / Re: How many bitcoins do I need to retire in 20 years? on: June 18, 2016, 08:47:11 PM
After few years bitcoin price maybe $5000 or already replaced by other currency.

It will still depend on the price of bitcoin after 20 years. But if the bitcoin's price will reach to $5000.
Maybe you just need only 1000 btc for that years and for sure even you don't work for it. It can suffice your needs for 20 years.
I think if bitcoins price is 5000$ as people are suggesting then hardly you need 100 bitcoins for your worry free life. But I will never suggest you to sit idle and just earn with bitcoins, maybe run a new project with bitcoins with the 100 btc.
7340  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you actively spend your bitcoins? on: June 18, 2016, 08:37:04 PM
I am not spending my coins on a daily basis. But at least 2/3 times a month I buy things online.
Sometimes on bitcointalk and sometimes online in the shops that accept bitcoin. So i do spend, but not active.
I spend my bitcoins almost daily, basically in three things : Gambling with bitcoins, in trading with altcoins and for exchanges with other currencies. Can you please tell me shops that accept bitcoins, I am very very curious to know them Smiley and more importantly use them.
