1581  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [ SHIFT ] Price Speculation on: June 25, 2017, 03:22:26 PM
Shift recently had a bad newsletter release with a potential increase in Shift supply. This was the reason for the drop. They have since worked with the community and redacted this code from the update. Price going up FAST. This might be a great time to buy.

Indeed you are right on the latest price rising, SHIFT is up 6.73% in BTC and 4.69% in USD in the last 24 hours. I didn't know about the newsletter you've mentioned but probably you are right on that too. I think SHIFT may reach $3 during the following week, so yes, now when it is just a bit over $2 probably a great time to buy.

XRP is at the verge of something huge imo

#Flippenining eth to XRP is highly likely

Yep. Although some people say that the size of the market doesn't mean a thing, I think actually it does. Many people, especially those who have no time for thorough research, visit coinmarketcap to see which coins are "better" to invest in. And many of them, I'm sure, judge about a coin by the place it takes in the list.

BTC follows the dollar at this moment. As you said about the soap bar, if it's $1.00, we will pay 0.000371 BTC ($2700), with the 5% inflation the soap bar costs $1.05, so we will pay 0.00039 BTC.

The inflation isn't over BTC, but it affects BTC on the final price you will pay for your stuff.

That would be true if bitcoin's price was always stable, for example if it was always $2,700. But as we all know this is not the case. Using your examle with soap, when it is $1.00 we pay 0.000371 BTC ($2,700), but when it is $1.05 bitcoin can be $3,000 and then we pay 0.00034965 BTC which is even less than 0.000371 BTC.

Situation is pretty bad looking in my country, especially on south. But I think that politicians are doing their job very bad. When you find yourself wanting to leave because of lack of any perspective, than you know that everything gone apart. With crypto currency I do get an add cash and it helps me a lot. Without that I would be devastated.

Cryptos are helping me too and I think there are many people like you and me around the world. That's what is good about the cryptos, no matter how bad the economy situation in your country is, cryptos are helping you to survive.
1585  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Where and which part of day do you gamble? on: June 24, 2017, 03:01:53 PM
I simply go with the flow. If I feel like gambling, anything of the day is suffice to me. But usually I play alone in my room when every body is sleeping. I don't want distraction when playing that is why I enjoy bitcoin because you can just simply deposit it in a gambling site and go play anytime you want.

So you mean you are playing online gamling alone in your room? I see it's an intersting location for a gamer like and you can really focus on betting for a good games to play eventhough not so fun like fiat gambling, but you had the privacy while everyones asleep. Most importantly your deposit btc in gambling site is safe and counted immediately.

We all have a different nature, but if i talk about me, usually i avoid to play alone gambling. In this way, i couldn't get fun and enjoyment, seriously i feel bore whenever i play gambling alone in my room, i feel happy to play gambling with my friends get together. But it is depend on nature, also online gambling have quality to play it anytime and any place, then we could play it in any time of the day. 

Yes, with online gambling we are not alone always. There are chat rooms were always something funny happens, although we can't know for sure whether all those people are different or it's alts chatting with themselves.  Smiley
1586  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: $1000 where to invest on: June 24, 2017, 02:41:35 PM
BTC (5,000$ in few months)
ETC (100$-200$)
ETH (500$ to 700$)


ETH at 500 would need a huuuuge round of hype I hardly see happening.

But why not?  Huh If it went from $20 to $300+ in three months this year why can't it go from $300 to $500 in another three months?

The small drop in the price we were witnessing lately means nothing. It's just ppl who bought under $20 were cashing out to see their profits in real life and I partly understand them. But after they finish they rising will begin.
1587  Economy / Speculation / Re: I have been waiting for Bitcoin to reach $3000 on: June 24, 2017, 02:23:55 PM
It already reached $3k 2 weeks ago and then dropped almost in an hour and very few people could sell their coins at that price. On LBC, you can see the trading rate as 3101.05 USD as of now and even higher but on normal exchanges it is between 2655-2720. After the recent drop to 2200, the market volume also has dropped and people are not sure whether they should invest or keep holding their coins.

But what do you think? I'm asking because you are Legendary and thus most likely you know much more than me on the subject.

In my opinion it's safe to invest in bitcoin now because the adoption of it is only rising and we'll see higher prices with bigger adoption in the future.
1588  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [ SHIFT ] Price Speculation on: June 24, 2017, 02:15:42 PM
A solid $2 dollars soon... and if Polo listing happen, a solid $5 dollar  Cool

You were right on $2, so probably you are right on the other prediction too. But so far SHIFT is listed on only two markets. Hopefully Polo will list it soon because it looks like a promissing project especially if the Phantom app will be released.

Yeah, I said polo just because, but really Shift have all the guns behind pocket, they will start to show them one by one and then the action will start for real. I am starting to see $5 without polo Cheesy hahahahaha but not hype here Cheesy there are no indicators of pump&dump so all is good so far

If you see $5 without Polo, then how much with Polo?

Well.. my judgment is very bullish, I am pro Shift.
Many said next target is $100M marketcap <--- I am with this

The only thing I am certain, the action isn't started yet.

Meanwhile SHIFT is rising even without Polo.  Smiley Plus 13.64% in USD and 4.43% in BTC in the last 24h. The Market Cap is $30M+ right now, so maybe that $100M is not so far away.  Smiley
Yeah, even without polo, shift is doing incredibly well and growing organically.

Unfortunately SHIFT is down -33.34% and the main reason for that is that people started selling like crazy when it was $2+. Have faith, people! What are you doing? Don't you understand that when you are selling the price is going down and the coins you have start losing their value?
1589  Economy / Economics / Re: Is bitcoin now the strongest currency in the world? on: June 24, 2017, 01:55:18 PM
In the virtual world I guess it is, it has along way to go to be the strongest in the real world.

I disagree. What do you mean by "in the real world"? Are US Dollars not from the real world? And if they are why do they give $2,700+ for 1 bitcoin then if bitcoin is only from the"the virtual world"? I think everything which is traded for the USD has the real value and hence it's real.
yes USD is a physical currency and has great value therefore it is a real currency, bitcoin can also be count as real currency because it also has value, but in fact bitcoin has now physical body therefore some people call  it as virtual, but I thin virtual is not a suitable word for it I think it is better to call it as digital currency, because  we can use bitcoin with the help of computer and internet, so crypto currency or digital currency is suitable name for bitcoin.

I think you meant to write "no physical body" instead of "now physical body", and agree with you that bitcoin is rahter a crypto currency than a "virtual" currency. It is pretty strong compared to other currencies even fiat ones and like deisik correctly said:
Quote
The "backing" that fiat currencies receive nowadays is pretty shaky overall

So it would be right to say that bitcoin now is among the strongest currencies in the world.
1590  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: can gambling give you lessons in life? on: June 24, 2017, 01:35:04 PM
Having a bigger lossea that cannot be recovered by playing again will certainly give you a nice lessons that will also give you the principle of not joining gambling bets anymore; life will be change as well.
But I think it has no effect with that person who already addicted in gambling, in gambler's mind is They are willing to lose everything to recover their losses, without them knowing it, that makes their lives be worse

Yes, at first one should aware that he/she is a gambling addict and only after that you can get lessons from gambling. In general you can never learn something when you are sick, you should be healed first and the first step to be healed is to realize that you are sick.
1591  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [XRP] Ripple Speculation on: June 24, 2017, 01:23:36 PM

Who's saying that? I don't have time to listen to 30 minutes yabbering from no-one-knows-who.

Banks are using or at least experimenting with Ripple, that's a fact. If it wasn't the case they would edit the article in Wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_(payment_protocol)



I have listened the podcast, guy actually talks how many and what banks are using it. I think that post was sarcastic as many are.

Oh, I get it now, thank you. Being non native speaker I can't understand sarcasm sometimes.

So the post wasn't against Ripple then, haha. Oh, now I see you could tell it from the name of the file with "how-ripple-makes-bank-to-bank-transfers-compliance-faster-cheaper" in it. Smiley

Anyway XRP is $0.3+ again and those who were saying it's time sell when it was $0.25 were wrong apparently.

Torcoin.org is down at the moment. Is the website going to be changed?

Torcoin still down at the moment. Any news coming for the website or not?

We must wait to developer.
There are speculations that when he returns after his 2 weeks absence the price will increase xD
Wait for the official announcement of the dev about this problem or issue . I think the dev is busy as of now so we cant update this thread but I hope as soon as possible he come back again so we can know the good news in tor coin. I hope so the price of tor coin will increase in the next few weeks.

Curently the price is 25000 satoshi and I hope the price of torcooin after 1 week will be 50000 satoshi.

it's almost 30k right now, TOR is going up pretty quickly. Hope we'll see $1.20+ soon since it's $0.80+ already. No selling under $1.20+, guys!  Smiley

For now TOR is up 19.33% in BTC in the last 24h, hope it will keep the pace.

Some might say that the economy situation in my country, Ukraine, is bad: corrupt politicians, high taxes, high utility charges and so on. But from my perspective it is still much better than it was before when I was a child. I can see that there are a lot of small restaurants around and they are all packed in the evening so people have money to sit there, right? Also you can easily exchange BTC for our local currency and I don't mean the LocalBitcoins, there are sites which exchange with better rates and transfer money directly to your CC charging nothing for that.
1594  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Where and which part of day do you gamble? on: June 23, 2017, 04:32:38 PM
I have neither a specific time for that nor a specific place. Mostly it happens when I have absolutely nothing esle to do, but since I have to study biology I rarely have spare time. Sometimes when I visit relatives and get bored to death I play my favorite dice game to keep myself busy.  Smiley
1595  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: $1000 where to invest on: June 23, 2017, 04:06:06 PM
My vote went for the Ethereum. This coin has shown such a big rise lately that I don't know to which other coin's rise it can be compared. Although it was over $400 ten days ago and now it might look like that was the coin's peak from where it will fall, I think ETH has bigger potential and what we'll see in the future will be much higher than $400 .


This coin is perspective, but there are more successful  chinks at the market, now all invest  in Ethereum , an eternal height will not be, and it is so possible on other to begin to work quicker. 

Well maybe theoretically it's possible but for now Ethereum is the best. I personally think that since so many qualified developers are working in the field they would invent a better coin already if that was possible.
1596  Economy / Speculation / Re: I have been waiting for Bitcoin to reach $3000 on: June 23, 2017, 03:13:09 PM
If it hits $3k, it's only going up from there. I wouldn't recommend selling at 3k.

I agree. That would be a mistake similar to what I made when bitcoin hit $1,400. I thought since it was never that high it can go only down from there, but obviously I was wrong.

1599  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: can gambling give you lessons in life? on: June 23, 2017, 02:31:09 PM
Yes, the best lesson you learned from gambling is to be satisfied with what you earned and that your luck is the one who gives you a chance to win a lot.
Yes you are right, gambling teaches us to always be grateful for what we have, and do not too often want more. Sometimes we have trouble controlling ourselves when we want something more than what we have. Self-control difficulties always lead us to bad things.

Well, basically we should be grateful for what we have. Gambling is not actually giving us a lesson to remain thankful, but instead gives us a lesson to keep striving in every thing we got. If we don't get a victory right now so we should be confident and believe that later on we will get a huge profit, and it must be believed and always work hard. Gambling has only a simple formula that is self control
 

Do not do that, do not think that way. That's exactly how you lose your self-control and gamble until you lose everything. Gamlbing is not some job where the more you work the more you get from it, gambling works as the opposite in most cases.
Moreover gambling should be considered as your training institution where we can learn lots of life's most essential skills and characteristics. But if we want to use of those skills within gambling then we will never find success there. We can learn but we cannot apply those knowledge there itself.

Before gambling I'm sure I do not have this much confident on anything could be achieved. Now a  days, I'm having more self control just because of lots of training and drills with gambling.

That's great that gambling has given you such good lessons. And you are right we can't apply those lessons directly to gambling, that's the point. No startegy, whatever good it is, will work with gambling but it can work in the real life.
1600  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do you think about Casino with 0% Edge? on: June 23, 2017, 01:57:56 PM
Although it looks like it is pointless to create such casino, with 0% Edge, I think apart from what I mentioned before, earning money from ads on the site, there is another possibility for such site to be created. Imagine you are a poker player and you have many friends who are like you. You are fed up with giving your money to poker sites and you create a site of your own, for you and for your friends to play.

You could be tired of giving money to poker sites, although the rake is not that big, and you do have a lot of tournaments with added money, and freerolls etc, so I don't think you really need to feel that way. Anyway, if you are tired of doing that, you could just end up playing live with friends, I don't think you can create a poker site on your own just like that because you need a lot of money for promotions, you need to be legal etc. It's quite hard to create a good gambling site in my opinion.

But you don't need to promote the site if it's for your friends only and I think same goes for legality. Yes, it's quite hard to create a good gambling site but you can create a simple one and this will cost you much less. Playing live with your friends is possible only if you live in the same town, otherwise you need a site to play on.
