You are talking about seek addicted people. Their cases are well known, cause of it's terrible destiny and people love to pay attention on it. I also have such subjects in my family. But I think you forgot that gambling can take some simple form like gambling for fun or just points. I gamble with bitcoin and I don't count it as something serious, for me it's just a way to spend my free time and chill.

In the topic you are asking one thing and in the thread the other
Well, I have never win above 1,5 and 2 BTC, but once I was very close to that. On March I won 1,3 BTC on a slot game. That was just unbelievable that moment. I cashed out everything to not put those money back in gambling. Now I regret that I simply didn't move it for cold storage to cash it out later when the price reach at least 3500$

That's right. we all need to know that while we are holding our founds on an exchanger it is actually exchanger's founds, but not ours. So, in the case that if the exchanger decides to close it's activity or if the exchanger hacked we loose everything what we counted as our money and we can't do anything about that. Online wallets can be called the same type as exchangers and logically they are not safe. But Hardware and paper wallets can give you that protection that is really needed in the world when you are surrounded by scammers.

I think you have to look at all those variants that other commentators suggested and choose which one suits you the most.
I use Hashnest wallet for my Bitcoins and Litecoins, as well from this month they suggest Bitcoin cash storage. And for ICOs' projects and tokens I have heard that My ethr wallet is the best place, cause of it supports some of tokens. And if you are looking for a place which would allow you to store many of altcoins I would suggest you an exchanger, something like YoBit with all possible altcoins in the list. Good luck!

I also think that there is nothing to worry about for now. The meaning of "babble" suits more to fiat than to digital currency. I suppose that the price for bitcoin is going to grow constantly with some falls that are just inevitable. Only banning from the side of Government can stop bitcoin, nothing else.

Litcoin has broke the new record this day. It's price reached 64$ after a long time of frozen around 40-50$ prices. Other altcoins also grew. Today the growth is affected by energetic trade in South Korea. In recent days, the same trend is observed in relation to bitcoin cash, monero and Ripple XRP. I think those coins are the most perspective to buy currently.

Why not?! I think it is pretty possible, especially with today's prices. Look, bitcoin change it's price so often that in the case if you own 10-20 of coins you can earn good on trading. Buy when it's cheap sell when it's expansive, so you will make from 100 to 1000$ daily like that. Other ways could not bring such fast profit, so I think bitcoin tradersare on the top about earnings today.

Welcome! You came in the right place to learn about bitcoin. I think firstly you have to become a daily visitor of section "beginners and help" here on the forum. There you can find a lot of information and friends like you are. Also don't forget about Google where you can find an easy-word explained main epithets about bitcoin and things about it. Good luck!

I use YoBit for all my operations with Bitcoin and altcoins. it has a lot of opportunities for exchange and withdraw. I have discovered this site for myself two years ago when I just joined to crypto-currencies and it totally satisfy my needs. Add to that they have fee free option for moving money on my fiat online wallet, so I am very happy with them 

The problem of ICOs is that 10% of each is clear scam and money of investors are going nowhere. So, it is very important to chose a really perspective project. I am investing in BetKing casino tokens. By my opinion the era of online gambling have got new push from bitcoin appearance and possibly of gambling with crypto-currencies. I believe that tokens of Bet King casino is going to be in demand, cause of they have a lot of users already and the number of users is constantly growing.

I have traveled only in Europe during this two years that I'm in bitcoin world. And as here Evro is acceptable in those few places where I was. But I think to the idea of exchange skipping during travel asks for bitcoin would be acceptable everywhere. Now it's just impossible.

China is a big country and mining of crypto-currencies is on high level there. But I think Japan is going to be the country which will eliminate fiat and convert to crypto fully. At the beginning of this year Japanese government fully legitimized bitcoin as a currency and store of value. Since then Japanese market of bitcoin became attractive for a wide range of investors and traders. Trading of bitcoin in Japanese yen is 46% of the total volume of bitcoins' trade worldwide, while in US dollars - only 25%.
Japan remains one of the few countries that have adopted bitcoin as cryptocurrency. The country's largest companies, including Peach Airlines and retail giant Bic Camera offer bitcoin as official payment method in the coming months hundreds of thousands of trade enterprises, restaurants, bars, cafes and shops, is also expected to integrate bitcoin. To me it tells that Japan is in a one step to fully convertation.

This is going to be interesting to se how Estonia is going to realize this project. As I know it is not the first project alike. many countries have spoken about creation of their national crypto-currency, but no one succeed yet. Firstly they will have to prepare their laws for crypto-currency regulation, cause of such move will open use not only for estcoin, but for each other crypto as well. In Estonia there is no any law-project about that, so the creation of national crypto-currency and it's release may take a lot of time.

I think that everybody is like that in this moment. Just a month passed from BCC appearance and people still didn't get what to do with it. Somebody even said that it is a babble. But the price for Bitcoin cash is keeping to grow. I also have some coins and I am confused about my moves towards this currency. But I would not say that BCC is taking bitcoin down, the same way we could say that ETH is moving bitcoin down.

I have never been a participant of BTC-e and I may only guess how many people like you are are waiting for this updates and coming back of their founds. I'm following the news about BTC-e from the most beginning of the incrdent, and I hope soon the situation will be solved, cause of they promised to clear up everything by the 1st of September, as I heard.

Unlucky you. You must be a teenager if your parents and especially mom took such position about Bitcoin and making money online. She must be saw something negative on TV, I have also heard on a TV that bitcoin is a babble and new poizen pyramid. I think you have to show her other opinions about bitcoin on YouTube. Explain that it is not illegal and you don't invest anything in that besides your free time.
My family is ok about everything. For them it's more important that I have found a way to earn some extra money to my salary and they are happy with that.

I suppose Bitcoin is more popular in Asia than in remaining world. I have heard that 20 % of people in China know and use bitcoin. And this percent actually is not so small. The percent of people in Europe is much lower indeed. I decided it by the situation around me - people are not interested in Bitcoin and long term investment around it. people here prefer their office jobs, fast profit and money that they can hold in hands. I suppose in your place, guys, the situation is not much different.

As I understood Bitcoin cash appeared on the 1st of August together with Bitcoin's fork. BCC can't be mind and the number is around the same with the number of Bitcoins, which are already mined and in hands of users. As I see trading of BCC is not going good and many holders prefer just to keep this currency to see what is going to be next with it. I suppose BCC is going to be the second currency after bitcoin by the price. But it is long term future stays mysterious for me.

Payment received. Thank you!

I'm disagree. I don't see nothing alike between banks and crypto-currencies and how one can replace the other. So, by my opinion there is no reason to banks afraid crypto-currencies. I see that the era of banking is passing. Everything has it's peak and fall after that. So, I see that banks are cutting their activity and some new option come for people's use.
