481  Economy / Economics / Re: Does the Price of Bitcoin Matter? on: June 28, 2016, 02:59:00 PM
For me Price of Bitcoin is matter of course. If the price is stable or rising people  get more confident in Bitcoin and start using it it more, so more and more people get involved. If the price is falling, people get scared. So now Bitcoin is growing and it became more and more interesting for users. I even heard that it's gonna appear ATM that accepting Bitcoin and works with it like with any other currency.
That's how most of whales fool you. If you see price is dropping, you guys get panic and start selling and by that decision you're making the whales happy because they are buying your coins in low price and once they bought most of the coins in its low price, they will now start pumping the coin again and will sell again with high price. That's how they get profit with you.

Maybe thats manipulating strategy of those big holders to create small panic so they can buy to more lowered amount and earn more profit again, and thats the reason we should join to their flow theirs halving coming and can be a good sign for bitcoin price to go more up so we should not be panic for now just hold to see better result in near future.
The event that will come will not make an assurance for the price to go up. Reading in different threads here, I saw most of them sell before the halving happen, so this might result to a decrease on bitcoin price.

Here's what I don't understand, why did the original Dev clemahieu spend years working on a project, for virtually no profit, and then leave it to die just out of the blue esp when demand was increasing? Can someone explain?

You hot the target,all of us are baffled he could have made money here,if he wants to continue and he lacks the funds to do so,he could just ask for donation,asking donation is ok for the development of the coin I saw this being done on other coins..
I agree with your opinion.. and i expressed this same view so many times in their telegram group posts.. But unfortunately for no response..

They still have the code all coins are not yet distributed,so there is a remote possibility that thay will relaunch again,the only problem is the fork the dev is still alive so the possibility is still there no doubt about it..
I wonder why his other developer wlemahieu being inactive too. Is this some kind of accident or they really abandoned the project? If Collin is the only one facing some real problem about his real life then why his assistant wasn't been active too.

Hallo, there are about 18M of Mrai spared out, so the total of Mrai converted can be the same value of 1,8M $.
If we can get a good ICO from BTC, that won't affect to much our funds to develop, and will make very happy all Mrai owners.
Well I hope your coin will get a good ICO. I really hope your coin can really help the Mrai holders.
486  Economy / Economics / Re: Does the next halving really matter that much? on: June 27, 2016, 03:10:25 PM
The halving does not really matter to people who are just buying bitcoins and selling them because the halbing only affects people who are interested into the mining of coins.
So if you are afraid of a drop dont be because it wont affect the price people.
Halving is really focus to miners because they are the one who really feel and get affected for this coming event. Many miners might quit and others will shift to other altcoin to mine. If this will happen there will be a short supply in bitcoin and this might affect the price.
487  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: June 27, 2016, 03:06:51 PM
The addicting part is that, when you are winning, you want more, and when you are losing you want to recover.
Haha, either way, you will play in a long time which is good for the gambling site, that's why gambling is designed for people to lose money. haha

yeah that's right. there are always a little percentage of winning in gambling. unless you know how to deceive them. then you will always be a winner in a game, and will go home with a lot of money. and HAPPY! hahahaha  Grin
It depends on the type of gambling because if you will play a skilled base games that for sure that is fair 50/50, the only problem with the gamblers is the lack of discipline, they are greedy that they will only stop when they lose all their money.

If you are addicted to gambling then I don't see any difference in any gambling games as gambling is a gambling and once you get addicted to it, its really difficult to find way out.
There are gambling games that doesn't make you addict rather it will make you clever like sportsbetting because it require knowledge on a certain team thus it will make you learn and gather informations. I suggest this type of game rather than dice, this is better.
488  Economy / Economics / Re: Big Crash coming on: June 27, 2016, 03:01:48 PM
The crash has just stop and settle to $600, that would simply mean that the crush was unreal and we are waiting for another surprise for the price of bitcoins to go skyrocket again, this time it could go $800 before the halving.
The big crash is real and expect it to happen after event. See on that day the sudden price of bitcoin falling drastically because of chinese. I don't want any big crash for bitcoin because it will affect me negatively but all we see on the price soaring is just a manipulation.
489  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to teach someone about Bitcoin on: June 27, 2016, 02:57:43 PM
very simple in my opinion, you must show the results you get from bitcoin, then suggest to search in google what is bitcoin and after that you teach what you do to get bitcoin.
Explaining things in simple will not be a good way and it might not be clear for the person you're talking to. Because a person who wants to learn will surely question anything about it and to make it clear, you need to be more specific.
490  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin to hit $2016 by the end of 2016 on: June 27, 2016, 02:55:32 PM
Well I think thats possible but I doubt it will happen. Maybe the chance of bitcoin reaching that price by the end of 2016 is 30%. Well there's a high probability that bitcoin will be 800$ by the end of 2016.

I think the chance is less than 10%. It that happens, it means there is a big price bubble, the price will drop a lot after.

The market cap is bigger than ever and the investors are wiser, I think the price will rise gradually in the future.

Price is dropping last few hours, looks like it will be hard to break 1000 $. I hoped for some new record, and I still think there is a lot of chance for that to happen. We like when price is rising, and when its dropping we going crazy around the forum. I`m optimist even when times are hard, that is faith in my opinion.
I also think price will rise in future, and after some top it will settle on 800 $. I believe we have 30 % chance for that. 10 % that we will stabilize on 1000 $ before new year.

I do not think the $1000 will be broken in the next few weeks. That is the price for the next 6 to 12 months.

It is better for the price to rise slowly to $1000. I do not mind if the price just rise 1 to 2% per week in the future.

1% a week means 67% a year. If it is 2% a week, 180% a year. They are quite high. I think between 1-2% is good.
I agree, I don't want pump and dump too because the only meaning of this is manipulation is happening around the price. Seeing bitcoin to slow rise is a good reason that we're having a real demand on the coin and more people are adopting into it.
491  Economy / Speculation / Re: How many bitcoins do I need to retire in 20 years? on: June 27, 2016, 02:54:16 PM
To be safe, get two Bitcoins.


lol i agree with this. in 20 years 2 bitcoin may be worth 2,000,000$ and to me a 2m retirement fund would last if you plan on retiring at 60 and living untill 75 or whatever. specially if you have another income coming in still from ssi or whatever it may be

safe side get 5

if it will peak to 2,000,000$ i`m fine with onl 0.5 btc Smiley
Not gonna happen, that is too unrealistic and you must be dreaming, if that price will be reach then I will be having a problem then, a problem how to spend my money because I have already invested 10BTC as of today.
To be able to make atleast 1million per bitcoin we need a huge mass of users soaring the demand on bitcoin. I think we approxiamately need 3/4 of existing population to use bitcoin and that's the time we will see the bitcoin's price to go that high. I think we only have 2-digit million of users using bitcoin, so that's still a long run to happen.
492  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will bitcoin go back to bellow $400? on: June 27, 2016, 02:51:34 PM
I do not think that the current price fluctuations, but there will not be too big to fall, the next month should be up.
I hope will not happen again and I believe it will not go below that price anymore, I have already invested when the price was still $500 so as of now I am already in profit but I have a strong hands and my plan is only to dump it after the halving.
The price is unpredictable and I dont wnat to see price drop like that but the possibility that it will go down is very huge since we know that people will sell no matter what will happen when the event they're waiting come.
493  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin to be international currency on: June 27, 2016, 02:49:45 PM
I think bitcoin can be an international currency, but for now, it's still hard for bitcoin because there are still many things that bitcoin need complete first, like having a physical unit like paper money for bitcoin.
That would be easy to realize, right now we need to have the support of the government to attract more users, then everything will follow.
We don't need governments, we need people who can make expose bitcoin. I am more than happy to see Mark Z. or Bill Gates supporting bitcoin rather than the governments that thinking to benefit in bitcoin once they support it.
494  Economy / Speculation / Re: bitcoin continuous rising? on: June 27, 2016, 02:38:29 PM
It will continue rising until the halving will come. This is now a great opportunity to hold our bitcoin just we need to do is continue collecting bitcoin until the last time of bitcoin.
yeah I think for this time prices will not go down again like a few days ago hold  bitcoin and collect bitcoin as much as possible until halving come. if you think you've not enough time to collect bitcoin. you can try to buy bitcoin dude. at least when it is the best choice

The price today somehow fall. But it doesn't matter I do believe that bitcoin is going to rise higher and higher.
For sure after the halving things will change about the bitcoin.
And bitcoin's economy will going to become on the pumping season.

I think pump is over now, and we won't see better price at halving as price being slower down and its taking too long even to cross $700 mark, so I don't expect anything from halving now.

The pump is over yes, but after the halving I expect the price to fall in a largere range.
Most investors who have not sold yet wait till halving, and when nothing happenes that day, they will decide to take the profit they already have and sell.
That's the time i'm gonna buy again.
Bitcoins are not continuous rising but he want to rise only. Sometimes you have a drop between that periods. So if the coin is continuous rising i dont think so he dropped allot last view days.

The drop is just cause by the panic selling of people who don't believe bitcoin. But sooner or later, when more and more people are going to hold their bitcoin before the halving comes.
The price will going to increase and bitcoin is going to rise that time.
You can't be sure on how the price will be on before or after halving because bitcoin price is always depending on users, if users will keep selling before halving the price will be continue to drop instead to rise. So as of now we need to be ready for the possible worst scenario that may happen soon Roll Eyes.
Price will really depende on the demand of the coin so I agree with your statement that the price is not sure to goes up this upcoming event. I think the price that we have is just a manipulation by whales.
495  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: June 27, 2016, 02:31:51 PM
Saving money is now better due to the worth that it has now its better to wait on a better price to buy-in some nice amounts of bitcoins.
I would not invest right now if you already have bitcoins, be sure to have bitcoins before the halving people.

I am buying at a moment as I am risk taker and I believe in investments rather then saving, as I don't want to risk my retired life with savings and that is the reason I am investing at a moment.
I thought it was a retard life lol. Anyway, it's fine to buy coin now even the price of bitcoin dropped, there's still a higher chance that it will rise up not this month, not this year but maybe for upcoming years. If you are the kind of guy who have the patience to wait, then it will really bear you a good profit.
496  Economy / Economics / Re: Best way for steady income on: June 27, 2016, 02:24:23 PM
I think if you want to earn a steady income. you can try on investment. there are many investments such as mining or other investments where you'll have a steady income every week
yeah, I heard hachocean is amazingly good cloud mining investment... you can profit daily... Ok, jokes aside. I am more and more disapointed in the investment methods I could find.
For know I think that gambling could be potentially better than investing. I am talking here about sport betting with extremely low odds like 1.2 odds max. So far I am in the testing phase of this plan.
I will post my thoughts about this system after a month or so.
I agree if the gambling you bet in is sports betting, because it is not based on luck but it is based on people's skill in a team. I vehemently disagree gambling your coins in easy way such as dice, roulette, etc.

                        Why am I an atheist



You are an atheist because you fear  Smiley
Fear from what?
Fear from santa claus? I don't how atheist fear from non-existence being. Like, you can't fear tooth fairy 'cause you know it will never hurt you because it's a fantasy.
498  Economy / Economics / Re: The Halving - Good or Bad for Bitcoin? on: June 27, 2016, 02:17:56 PM
I'm going with yes on this one, due to the fact that people included this in BTC in order to maintain stability so, yeah!
With the halving that is happening next month the price should rise in order for the miners to have a profitable business, and because of this it will benefit us holders enjoying a profit on a short term investment.

the price has already gone up quite a bit compared to last year. remember the time that we were below the $300 for such a long period? if you take that into consideration, then the price has doubled within a year. people seem to forget that as they are only interested in seeing the price go up further and further. the growth that we have realized in the last months don't seem to interest them much...
That's right, the really made a big jump for a long period of time of it's stability. I think it's safe to sell your coins now, but if you have trust that bitcoin will still make it's price way higher then you should hold.
499  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin or gold? on: June 27, 2016, 02:14:56 PM
I'm choosing for them both because its both very nice to have and also very profitable compared with other investments.
You should pick one for a long term and the other one (bitcoin) for a short term.

Choosing for it both is a good way to make profit, the gold is right now also staggering so that is pretty nice.
Its both got a good future so its indeed worth investing in it.

Yes that's a good way to get more profit. You don't have to choose between them. As long as you can use them wisely and you know how you can take
the advantage of having them both.
Because having multiple source of income is a good thing and bitcoin & gold has what it takes.

Gold is kicked out of the game, people were saying it to reach $2k, which never happened.
Bitcoins (ATH) reached the price of Gold (recent lows) and have the potential to go far more than current rates, Bitcoins are more volatile and Gold has limited liquidity. It is rising but will take years, while bitcoins are able to give you xxx times your investment back, would you still choose to invest in both?
I'm not degrading bitcoin but gold is way safer than bitcoin, gold has been around for almost century and doesn't dying while bitcoin is still on it's early stage and it's volatility is so risky because it makes it's price rise to 500% and dump to 500% for just 1 day.
500  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's stopping people from using bitcoin? on: June 27, 2016, 02:12:01 PM
People may not trust the security around bitcoin.

That's really an issue and reason why people are stopping from using bitcoin. Because there are some people that are tackling about the security of
bitcoin wallet addresses.
Thinking about that an hacker can easily penetrate to their accounts and get the balance they have.

Correct. The only thing that it lacks of, is security itself. People nowadays try to get everything through shortcuts, they don't want to work for this.
This is why hack attempts has risen to an extremely dangerous level.
Making your account secure and bitcoin security is different. Bitcoin itself is secure because of it's anonymity. The only thing that has risk is your account security, it's your choice if  you want to make your account secure. Bitcoin has nothing to do with it.
