341  Economy / Economics / Re: If Bitcoin had a stable price, would it still be as popular? on: November 23, 2017, 07:01:41 AM
In my opinion if bitcoin has a stable value it will not be popular anymore because bitcoin is known for its fast changing value that is why too many people became interested in investing on bitcoin.

Do you mean that the market is now under the control of few wealthy people?

I do believe that we need price increase too and bitcoin miners need it. Remember that they are not paying their power bills in bitcoin value, it is in dollar, so when the price won't be growing, I am sure they will have a hard time paying their bills and might be a big problem in the future.

Online dating will works for some and others don't work. And my opinion, it is base on compatibility for both of them,
Most probably. But sometimes, girls take advantage of this online dating, some poor girls look for rich people who loves to *f.

Online dating can be successful or not depending on your personality and luck.
But just like any other form of dating, it requires time, energy and luck and sparks to work out. If you are already dating online such as Tinder, make sure that it won't take too long before  you meet the person face to face. I consider the traditional way of dating as my preference, because I easily get to know more the person through that.
In online dating, there is no assurance, sometimes it's like buying in an online shop, you will never see the item until it arrive in your doorsteps. It is also a package, that means, unexpected damages may occur and you have no choice, disease is one of it, no one will admit if they have something.

The traditional way is the most secure, but it is painful, usually some girls are choosy too.
343  Economy / Marketplace / Re: How can we encourage local businesses to accept BTC? on: November 23, 2017, 06:20:49 AM
The big problem with business payment method is the formality if the customers are at another country. So bitcoin could easily solve that problem with the advantage in freedom transaction.

Precisely. In online transactions, bitcoin is the king. No doubt about that, but when it comes to merchant to customer dealings, well, fiat will always be the best and it is hard to use bitcoin in fiat territory if you are looking for convenience. I do believe that they are good at where they are right now.

I think it's hard to encourage local business to accept BTC, i think we must first need the government to recognized bitcoin if the government finally recommend bitcoin to the public then it's much easier to persuade those local business to finally accept bitcoin, and it will really have a big impact in bitcoin in a good way.

So we can't convince merchants to use bitcoin and ask the help of the government to endorse it? Well, I don't believe that we need that, we could convince the merchants first then the government will be the one adopting and make a regulation.

We ought to conscious them the amenities of utilizing bitcoin.Like, we can tell them about reduced transactions charges of bitcoin.More, we are able to tell them concerning the security of bitcoin.We can encourage them to commit on bitcoin trigger it can provide them with revenue.

I believe you don't understand what you are saying.

Terrorism are independent from religions, race , gender, nationality etc. Terrorism is only connected with your personality. If you have bloody horrible personality, you are doomed to be a terrorist.
Most of those terrorists are also well educated and not just a barbaric poor who always shout for justice. So it is really connected with your personality and how you look at the situation on where you are.

Not all of them but some are Muslim and some are not . so don't be hadst to the other good Muslim .
Yeah, some of them are good, actually I've seen some of them in the hospital just this past day and they are cheerful with their friends who are in the hospital, so probably they love each other and most probably they love peace too.

No..thee are non-muslims who are terrorist too..I am sad on the part of the muslims because there are a lot of people who discriminates them because of that. They should be minding others feelings too.
Some of the ideology of those communists are almost resulting to terrorism, so it's not just Muslim.
345  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What would happen if BTC was Banned? on: November 23, 2017, 05:40:21 AM
I don't think that btc will be banned. Notice that when governments speak about bitcoin, or cryptocurrencies in general, it's not all bad. They see advantages but are cautious about adopting it because of volatility, and other reasons. In fact, one bank in my country has announced on national television that cryptocurrency use and growth is inevitable and that their bank is now involved in cryptocurrency use and exchange.

Banning won't come, but for sure, regulation will always be waiting in the future. Probably a more strict laws will be imposed so no one can evade tax. Government can always find a way to control frauds in the internet without banning bitcoin.

Banks are more likely to adopt cryptocurrency, but I think they will come up with another way, like producing their own centralized cryptocurrencies. That way even if it is cryptocurrency, it will still be under their management and not like bitcoin.
346  Other / Politics & Society / Re: How can you be part a good change? In this world. on: November 23, 2017, 05:20:36 AM
You don't need to become a hero or act like one just to tell the world that you are part of the change. A simple discipline is enough to say that we are part of the change. There are also times that we are already doing something great that we sometimes forgot and never really think about, just like how the social media are sharing good deeds by some people that they never knew that they've done something great.

There are plenty of garbage around us, by not contributing to it, then you are making a difference.
347  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling. Is It Wrong? on: November 23, 2017, 04:55:04 AM
Gambing is good if you are able to control it. It becomes bad or wrong when you can't control it like you sold things because the reason is you lose much and because of that little by little your already under control of addiction.

It is, but most of the time control isn't just the factor that could make it wrong. Besides, control is there but only on the first times or in the first few days or weeks, sooner or later if you are learning how to love gambling, you will end up losing it all and most probably just telling everyone that our gambling habit is under control, but it is not.

In my opinion, anything that we do that could affect our lives or the lives of the people around us is wrong.
348  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is gambling so addicting? on: November 22, 2017, 08:01:30 AM
I'm feeling great after everytime that i'm gambling. But things are worst when i lost much. Trying to quit once or twice but it doesn't work. I back to the gambling way in a few weeks later. Now i'm not resist it, just try to keep my bet is really low. Like 1 or 2$ for fun.

It is a sign that you are already a gambling addict. You can control your bets this days but it doesn't mean that you are now away from being an addict. Sooner or later your desire will eat you. You will then again bet bigger ammounts, just like how you stop before and you can't resist then you are back to your habit.

In my opinion, gambling is addictive when everything about it becomes "fun" and you are getting more comfortable with it, like thinking that it is not hurting your money and it is not eating your time.
349  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Is the main goal of human is happiness? on: November 22, 2017, 07:36:46 AM
Yes it should be. Unfortunately, to reach that you have to pass thru many challenges and sometimes in your journey, you forgot about happiness, all you are doing is keeping your self stress. In the end, instead of being happy you are frustrated.

As you grow old, it is really different,when you are young you are looking for happiness, and when you mature, you are looking for a way and things that could make you happy and comfortable.
350  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambling ends on: November 21, 2017, 11:30:29 AM
I also wanted gambling to end but for selfish business tycoons is that they will never let this happen. It's been said many times that what it does is completely negative but these bastard casino owners will still only care about the money.

They have the money and they can do what they want with it. If gambling what could make them happy then they could use their money in it as capital. Even if the impression of the people towards gambling is not good, they can't just close those casinos, they are licenced and legal so you cannot do anything other than staying away from it if you feel like you are getting addicted and still want to escape from it.
351  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did you learn from your gambling mistakes? on: November 21, 2017, 10:56:37 AM
No, I am not a full time gambler and I don't really like to waste money in gambling, I am gambling from the bitcoin that I earn and not from money that I earn in real life.

OP's experience is common in gambling addicts. They always have the guts to borrow money from anyone, reasoning out that they really need it for their family and sometimes for food, but the truth is they would use it to their vice and to finance their gambling habit.      
352  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Any tricks available in gambling to won the bet? on: November 21, 2017, 10:31:34 AM
Nothing, rely on your luck, that's all you can do in betting. No one knows who will win unless you are cheating or you know someone in the house who want to do an "inside job" and you share your winning to your cohort. However in sports betting, there are tipsters, and many game predictions, I think reading those would give you an idea on who will win and that would atleast raise your chance of winning.

If you believe in tricks in dice, I pressume that you would also believe in superstitions while betting.  Grin
353  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Superstition on: November 21, 2017, 10:11:40 AM
Life is full of sentiments only as every one look for the lucky number, lucky dress, lucky day, lucky seat, lucky colour like that.

Nothing wrong in it something bring you confident why don't we try on it this is my opinion.

Especially the gambling which is full of luck only even you are smart, intelligent and strategic person that only not work in gambling that why I am saying this.

In short, just do what makes you feel confident and relax while betting. No one cares if you are licking a coin while playing, as long as you don't affect other players. Some even keep their money under their sandals hide their first win near their ear.

In online gambling too, no one cares if you are counting each bet before betting in dice. Superstitions is good, provided that you won't waste more time and you look annoying to other players.
354  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you agree in death penalty? on: November 21, 2017, 09:53:09 AM
I dont think death penalty is the solution of sins or crime.. God give us his life., i think hes the only one can get someones lifes


Did God save those victims by this criminals? If yes then all is fair. Unfortunately, He did not( I am now doubting if He is really there or just a creation of those playful minds ).

Death penalty is needed, but should only be used to those who take the life of other people. It should not be use as a tool by those vindictive politicians who are in power.
355  Economy / Economics / Re: how can bitcoin help the community? on: November 21, 2017, 09:25:46 AM
There are so many usage of bitcoin to help our community. Those unemployed can use this to build business and achieve their success. Possibly they can help their community once they get a good opportunity here in bitcoin.

How can we be sure that bitcoin is really helping the unemployed? Or just those who has access to internet? I think if you have access to internet, you are not that poor, and probably just not lucky to find a job.

In my opinion bitcoin can help, yes, but not to everyone, only those people who has internet connections, those who has a small capital to invest in the internet and those who are intelligent enough so they could atleast deal with other people around the globe.
356  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you want to live? on: November 21, 2017, 08:25:53 AM
Does it mean that I will be cloned from the piece of me? I would only like it if my memory will be among that will be restored, not just my genes and creating another me which doesn't have any memory from the past.

Who would not love that if after you die you will live again, and you can still remember the last time you die? That would be pretty cool. Grin
357  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: return as soon as possible and win back your losses . on: November 21, 2017, 08:00:55 AM
No, and you should not. Otherwise you are repeating the same mistake.

If you were busted in a game, don't let your anger take over, instead, log off the gambling site and take a deep breath outside, then think if is it worth it to gamble more or stop.

In my experience, if my initial deposit in my bankroll was gone, I would stop and would try again the next day. I got busted again, I make my rest longer then come back again to the site.
358  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did you ever lose time from work or school due to gambling? on: November 21, 2017, 07:01:18 AM
Used to spend time into gambling only during the leisure time. During the time of my work or by the time of my other necessities used to spend time. Gambling is always good, when kept within limits and spend for entertainment purpose rather than expecting bigger profits.

I too can play as long as 12 hours a day during my not so busy days. When I was done with my thesis, I enjoy my life, Keep on playing but after the summer, well gotta find a job, and I find one, then forgot about gambling.

In short, if you act like a child, like if you want to play and you let your craving go on, well that would really make you waste your time. Don't forget that it is not just gambling that you have to do your whole life. Your daily living is much important than gambling.
359  Other / Politics & Society / Re: If we can educate our kids at home why do we need to send them at school? on: November 21, 2017, 06:30:29 AM
Going to school is not all about learning subjects, you also build character out of your kids. There they learn failure and how to cope with it. Thats one thing you cant teach at home no matter how good the tutor are.
we can teach our child basic knowledge at home.. But schools can give them keen details on every knowledge the should know..

School is where we can learn and master things, specially the arts we are in and of course, the skills. We cannot make a living out of what our parents are teaching us, unless we want to be a house maid or a helper or if our family is a bit wealthy, then a businessman( this is I think happens to only few children ).

We need to learn other things too, since we are not going to stay at home for the rest of our lives, so we better go to school.
360  Economy / Economics / Re: How to teach kids about Bitcoin? on: November 21, 2017, 05:55:39 AM
Teaching them this kind of business where you can expand your knowledge about internet and stuff can confuse some children on what they are doing. First i think facilitate them what is the basis of bitcoin and who controls it to give them some idea about how bitcoin works and they will eventually try to solve some queation. Well this is a good start to that too.

You are just making things complicated if you want to make them learn things that way. Why not associate it with food or games? that's what makes children listen very well to someone, when there are candies or games.

Honestly, I really don't like children to play with money, teaching them how to use bitcoin in early age would also mean that you are teaching them how to use money and transact. I am sure that it has a negative effect to them while growing up.
