1581  Economy / Economics / Re: Tell me a secret: any way to earn 0.1 BTC per week? on: December 24, 2016, 06:42:47 PM
Buy up about 3,320,000,000 MINT and  keep minting it. The dividends from minting it would be worth about .1 BTC per week.
I can only imagine how much those 3.3 billion mints would cost. Grin Anything that you just buy and then generate or stake that can earn you good amount of money is either a scam or needs a huge amount of investment or both. I have no way to tell which one is yours since I'm not willing to invest and I don't have the money to invest in your MINT.

I'd keep an eye on your coin, though. Seems interesting. Hope to see a signature campaign or something soon.

If you want to earn 0.1btc per week on this forum you just have to rank up you account and then join a good signiture campaign, as for now you can try and look for freelance jobs where you could provide servecices in exchnage of bitcoin , if you have some money you could always try trading , there plenty of trading sites that can earn you a lot of money not jut a week but for 5min and they start at a minimum of 5$

No signature campaign can earn someone around 0.1 btc in a week, if that was possible then no one would have been doing anything else as someone could earn 0.4 btc in a month just by signature campaigns which is a really good income i guess, though earning through freelance jobs can get you an amount like that easily in a month.
Something that can make your earn 0.1BTC a week is something an average joe is not doing. For example, managing signature campaigns. Have you ever thought of how much Yahoo is making out of managing a lot of signature campaigns? I think it's much bigger than 0.1BTC a week. I think he's doing it most of the time of his day though. Not everyone's willing to stay online for so long every single day including weekends and do the job that he was hired to do. I don't think checking post count, post quality, new applicants, etc. is an easy thing to do.
1582  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to explain bitcoin to teenagers or children on: December 24, 2016, 06:32:33 PM
might be a bit easier to explain bitcoin to youth, but it would be very difficult for the children. Well, today, many young people who are eager to have their own income. I am quite sure, when you tell them that by studying bitcoin, they can generate their own money, it would be a lot of teenagers who will find out and learn about bitcoin. whereas children, they just focus on playing rather than to seek money.
I don't think every teenager is eager to learn bitcoins since there are some of them that have rich parents and don't have to do anything to support themselves and/or buy the things that they want. At first, I wasn't necessarily "eager" to learn bitcoins. I just explored it and then since I have common sense, I was able to learn most of the things about bitcoin without annoying people since I just constantly googled my questions.

I have friends that are really eager to learn bitcoins but I think it's just excitement that they feel. You have to channel your eagerness into willingness to learn all the things about bitcoin because otherwise, you can never earn money from the bitcoin world.
1583  Other / Archival / Re: Do you agree with idea "Bitcoin bank" ? on: December 24, 2016, 06:24:58 PM
i think bitcoin do not need any bank because bitcoin has  now very much stable technology and i think people also like the bitcoin online technology and i think bitcoin transaction fees is very much lower than bank.

Exactly, why would people go to banks for doing any bitcoin transaction if they can easily do it at home and if they already have their money safe in their computers then why would they like to involve any third party to make them safe for them?
Because they don't know how to do make their own bitcoin wallet secure. People have trusted the government banks ever since and they will think that bitcoin banks are basically government banks but just have bitcoins as currency without knowing that bitcoin is actually meant to contradict the idea of having a centralized banks. There's totally no point in opening an account a bitcoin bank account unless you're too dumb to learn all these basic things that you should've known at the first day that you were learning bitcoins.
1584  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Difference between Bitcoin and real money? on: December 24, 2016, 06:15:13 PM
Well yeah many opponents. and i think it is impossible that bitcoin will be the main money since bitcoin is just a digital currency and you can not deal with others if there is no internet but if they will make a physical money maybe those other thoughts maybe can be happen but for now we are using bitcoi nfor alternative payment for few merchant and other site that accepting bitcoin as payment..
Bitcoin is totally possible to become the main currency but not right now since not every single part of the world has internet. Bitcoin is a totally transparent currency and it we're going to make it our main currency, people can trace transactions since it's open to the public.

Back then, the people that were using a different form of fiat were probably thinking that it's impossible for their present currency to be replaced by the something new that is being introduced to them. If you make a quick google search, you will find that there were other forms of fiat currency other than coins and paper money. Some looks really good actually.
1585  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where to Invest BTC? on: December 24, 2016, 06:04:12 PM
Do not touch your bitcoin, keep them safe for a few years.
A good advice :-)
As time passes by, that strategy has becoming more and more a rule of thumb. "Hold your bitcoins for years and you'll see profit." Satoshi told us that after a couple of years, bitcoin would either have massive volume or have no volume at all. If the latter happens, then all of us are going to be devastated unless we convert early.

I think that's only a good advice to people that are too busy to look at the bitcoin charts, study it, buy when the price is low and then sell when the price is high. That's a good advice for people that are willing to wait for years or decades and wouldn't do panic selling when they see the price of bitcoin is decreasing dramatically than expected.

1587  Economy / Economics / Re: Tell me your predictions about Bitcoin on: December 23, 2016, 07:11:12 AM
At the moment, the price of bitcoin is already $890. And I'm pretty sure that we are going to reach that $900 before the end of the year. And I guess there is a chance that the price is going to be possible to reach to $1,000 only $110 is needed and there are almost a week before this year end.
It already did. Smiley I have sold some of my coins at 850$ range and then sold some again at this 900$ range. I don't want to lose the opportunity of selling my coins at this price. I sold 10% or 5% of my bitcoins just so if ever the price decreased instead, I could use some fiat to re-buy bitcoins.

There's a guy that said the next major price dump would be at the end of January. I know it's just purely speculation but I always keep it in my mind so I can sell before that, just in case he's right.


bitcoin prices might actually be able to penetrate the price of $ 900 for the moment. but, what is causing the rise so fast as it is today? whether it will be stable? Well, I feel jikk after gains, bitcoin prices stable, perhaps investors from various countries will appear, and move the business into bitcoin

I think it's because it's the holidays? People wait for this time of the year to spend a lot of money. Others get their bonus and double pay at this time so spending much money shouldn't bother them that much.

To be honest, I don't know the answer to your question (will it be stable?) but I do believe in the saying that everything that goes up will go down. All you can do now is secure your by selling some of your coins. In case of price decrease, you already sold some of your coins. You didn't totally miss the opportunity of selling at high price.
1588  Economy / Marketplace / Re: How can we encourage local businesses to accept BTC? on: December 23, 2016, 06:54:09 AM
I think to push local businesses to accept bitcoin on the area the government should legalize bitcoin. Because if bitcoin became legal there certainly local businesses feel safe to accept bitcoin. In addition bitcoin should have a lot to ease adoption. You also have to convince if accept bitcoin will have benefits for the local business.
Common people still looks very confused about how bitcoin works
But with government make it legal and support it , i think it's gonna be the best lesson to know bitcoin
As once bitcoin legalized it's give people a safe feeling to not worrying bitcoin as a scam thing
Things will run smoothly if government follows to support bitcoin too i guess.

You're a hero member and by the time that you've spent in this forum, you should know by now that the government will never legalize bitcoin. Legalizing bitcoins means it's okay for them to ditch their own currency.

The people that don't feel safe using bitcoin has to do their research. They wouldn't feel unsafe when they know what they're doing. You don't need the government to lecture yourself about these things and no one in this forum has been spoon fed by the government for the very knowledge about bitcoin. We all learned it by ourselves. It's pretty basic once you start reading a couple of articles about bitcoin.
1589  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Turn Gambling into a Profitable Activity on: December 23, 2016, 06:43:57 AM
Gambling can turn into profitable activity if you gamble wise. What i mean to say is dont be too aggressive on playing. Dont put all your money in just one game only. You should be patient.
But winning that one YOLO game is much better than winning a couple of games when you do smaller bets. I think we just have our preferences but I really think that you shouldn't do fixed bets. You should increase or decrease your bet every now and then whenever you feel like it.

If you think your winnings are enough. Thats enough. Dont be too greedy. Greedy can lead you to losing. In gambling, selfcontrol is really needed.
The problem here is the fact that there's not "enough" for us humans. Aren't you gambling because you wanted to get more money? You're gambling because you're greedy even if you refuse to admit it.
1590  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why trading is better than gambling? on: December 23, 2016, 06:32:37 AM
Well, lots of things that make trading better than gambling. you might be able to have fun in a gambling game, but we will not know whether you can make a lot of money, or not. gambling even has a big risk. In trading, you only need to predict the price to make a profit, but if you're wrong, you will not lose all your money, but you're still going to lose. Well, the risks that trading, it is still smaller than on gambling.

I think predicting alone isn't going to give you profits. What if you predicted that the price is going down and you're right? You will not earn money out of that because the price went down. Remember that the rule of thumb is buying at low price and then selling at a high price. Sure you can get profit if the price went up but what about if it goes down? I think predicting right will either give you profits (in case the price gets higher) or save you from losing money (in case the price gets lower) depending on how early you sell your coins.

I think trading is fun too when you have friends to trade with. You get to socialize and that alone is enough for you to have fun trading.
1591  Economy / Economics / Re: Spending Bitcoins on: December 23, 2016, 06:21:17 AM
Yes, there isn't a better time to spend bitcoins than X-Mas and as the price is souring higher and higher we could have value for money and purchase more for less.

I think even when it is this time we should hold it and not spend a single penny, you just should have some patient so you can make some good money when it raises.

Then when are you going to spend one? If today's not a good day, then what is? In just ~2 days, the price increased by ~150$. I think with that mindset of yours, you will always say "pass" on this major price increases because you'll always talk yourself into being patient and then waiting for even more price increase. You're going to be old before you can even enjoy a single penny out of your bitcoin earnings.

I think it's a good time to spend your bitcoins. Or maybe just convert it into fiat if you don't have anything to buy in mind, then convert it back to bitcoin when the price decreased again.
1592  Economy / Economics / Re: Why have Bitcoin instead of cash? on: December 22, 2016, 06:31:13 PM
Even if you invest 1% of your money now, it will be dominant in a few decades.

It totally depends on how much money do you have. 1% of 1000$ is just 10$ and I don't think that would exactly be "dominant" in the few decades because if so, then how about those people that invested 1000$? Then they should be totally financial Gods of the future, not to mention the people that have thousands of bitcoins today.

I think all of us should have at least 1BTC saved for the future. Even if the price of bitcoin doesn't get to millions or ten/hundred thousands dollars, it's okay. You would still have 1BTC to treat yourself something nice in the far far future.
1593  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is unpredictable job. on: December 22, 2016, 06:18:37 PM
There are many people who lost their money on trading, because trading is unpredictable job, in my opinion i need:
Method ( i must have system trading)
Money ( i must have management of money and risk)
Mind ( i must can control my emotion)
Tell me your opinions?

For me you must had patience on trading waiting for the coin to be up holding the right coin buy coin that you think that coin will be up or rise trading is predictable job when you have group you need group to know what coin they going to buy and your group will pump that coin to be up and make a profit.
It doesnt work anytime unless if you are a member of a big time group that could able to manipulate the price of a certain coin then you might gain profits on that but we all know that most people doesnt even know a group of people do have these kind of capabilities.Trading is never predictable even those experienced traders do normally experience loses too.

We don't even know if there's an actual group of people that does that. Grin I think most people here act individually, there's no group or anything. Actually, you can do it on your own. Just pick an altcoin that has potential but at the same time has a low volume. You might end up using 1BTC or less but if you know how pump and dump works, you will have profit for sure. Otherwise, it's really risky.
1594  Economy / Economics / Re: Invest your bitcoins. on: December 22, 2016, 06:11:34 PM
I would invest my bitcoins in studying because with enough money i can buy all the books i want to buy and want to build a career of my own and live a very enoughable and healthy life .

   One of the smartest things I have seen in this thread, investing in your knowledge, schools is the best choice that man can make. School can take time and money, poor people need to waive on many things, but that will pay out one day.
   If there isnt any profitable and safe investment in the moment, school is the second best choice. That is better then risking your money on some investment where you can lose all your money, knowledge from school stays for the rest of out lives, and that knowledge can bring a lot of money and food on the table.

Knowledge does not stay forever unless you apply it in your daily life. Otherwise, it will vanish and you'll try to remember it and you'll realize that you've already forgotten all of it. Also consider that school is a long term thing. If you only study for a year or for a semester, there wouldn't be that much difference since you still don't have any diploma in you. You could've used that money for other investments.

Only go back to school if you have a lot of time. You should have at least 8 hours of free time to keep up on school works. Don't go to school if you already have a full-time job or if you're too busy because you're just going to end up wasting your money.
1595  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the best source of bitcoin nowadays? on: December 22, 2016, 05:51:20 PM
HYIP is the best source for me to get bitcoin, with special strategy I always profit from HYIP programs. Only with HYIP I can get RoI of less than 2 months.

"Special strategy". Roll Eyes Funny. There's no way that you can earn from hyip unless you do some hardcore spam to spread your referral links. There's no special strategies in hyip sites since all you do is invest your money and then get scammed after a few days or weeks. Maybe if you invest in a new hyip site then you can get some profit but it still not safe since other hyip sites run away in such short period of time.

If you can make money out of referrals in hyip sites, I would recommend doing it in gambling sites instead since people are getting more and more into it.
1596  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do I grow my btc? on: December 22, 2016, 05:37:56 PM
There are more methods possible but the easiest and I can recommend you that one because its also is risk free and that is pretty important, I have it about signature campaigns its 100% profit and also very easy.
I dont recommend this because signature campaign can only give us partime income and only for small period of time.We dont know when they will end and also earning are great to dependent only on them,its better to have some other skills and yes signature campaign does help but only as partime income.

If you don't recommend that, then what do you recommend? I think having part time job/s is really helpful since having a part time income fills in the gap or the free time that you have once you're finished in your full time job. There are people has a lot of sidelines and part time job and it works really well to them because they can manage their time really well and no time will be spent just watching TV shows or anything that do not contribute to your well being.
1597  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How can gambling help you with your life? on: December 22, 2016, 05:11:17 PM
well i think more than the monetary benefits it can provide when you win, which is not really as often as losing
Unless you set a really low multiplier (i.e. 1.01x), then winning will surely occur much more than losing.

i think it's the lessons that gambling can teach to those that already went and lost a lot. of course while you're winning, the only thing you can think about is the extra money you have and how to spend it. but losing in gambling makes you think about the more important things you could have done with the money you lost. it will serve as a lesson to a lot of people and i think that is actually a good thing. though some people are not really not that good in learning from mistakes so they end up losing a lot more.
I would seriously feel bad for myself if I would have to lose a lot of money from gambling before I can learn all those lessons. Those are basic things that you can learn throughout life with and without gambling. You can learn that literally by just searching for quotes about "regrets" and "mistakes". If you need to learn something like this to become wise or to become a better person, I would recommend buying good books instead of wasting your money in gambling. It would stop you from gambling as well.
1598  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is 1000 btc Possible on: December 22, 2016, 05:06:46 PM
It's going to be true soon. Now if you see the market, chart is always "green". It mean the price is going crazy. All peoples will be sorry for not investing their money in bitcoin early.

The value of bitcoin might increase but how many bitcoins you had before will always be the same. Even when the price increased by 1000%, your 1BTC will still be 1BTC, if that's the point that you're making.

The thread here is actually about making 1000BTC out of trading altcoins and not bitcoins. I can play dumb and think that you meant the value of 1000BTC today would be the same value of 1BTC tomorrow, but I wouldn't do that. You didn't read the OP, obviously.
1599  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If bitcoin died tomorrow on: December 22, 2016, 04:26:20 PM
What would you do?
Move onto another coin?
Cry all day long?
Throw your computer in the pool?
Eat 100 bananas?


If it would die (drop to 1$ for example) I would cry because of the loss
Probably will move to another coin.
My computer stays where it is.
Eat 2 bananas.
This may not relate to the topic but you're quite a talented poet Grin And now we're back to the main thing, well it's hard for you or me or any bitcoin users to move to another coin after the shocking news of bitcoin's death. As we have done a lot, have had so many achievements in this bitcoin world, it's will again be a stepping stone for us to start all over one more time.

It's not hard unless you have some emotional attachments with bitcoins. I actually think that bitcoin's death is actually caused by people moving into another coin. Bitcoin will not just die on its own. It's most likely because it has got killed (not literally) by something else. You will not just wake up and find out that bitcoin died. Bitcoin is not a living thing and it's death is not all of a sudden but it would slowly happen. It would take days or weeks before the process is complete. Moving to another coin is quite easy because there's exchanger sites for that.
1600  Economy / Economics / Re: Do You Think Bitcoin Will Replace Dollar Soon? on: December 22, 2016, 03:56:15 PM
Bitcoin isn't going to replace the currency of a country, but bitcoin will become a universal currency for the entire world, in Europe we are already familiar with the euro as a currency, I believe bitcoin will be greater than that.

Wrong if we think cryptocurrency and physical currencies will not collide. If cryptocurrency market received more attention, and majority of people in the world are familiar with bitcoin, then the global economy will change. This will not happen in the near future, only a third world war which could make it faster.

That is very impossible that bitcoin  will replace dollar because people doesn't want to change the currency system of a country.
I will believe if gold will be the next currency and if the government will implement again the ancient times of law.
But with bitcoin, I really don't think it will happen.
Some believe it because they want to replace dollar so they will be rich easily, they are dreaming for sure, bitcoin cannot replace dollar because dollar is own by strong nation, stronger than the bitcoin community.

They are just thinking about themselves if they are thinking that way but in reality it is really impossible to replace fiat because of a lot of things to be settled first by the central banks of a country and as well as a law that will pass the replacement of their own currency. Even though bitcoin is really a great platform for financial services but with this case, I find it very hard.

That might be the case right now, but in the far future, we don't know what will happen. The only reason why bitcoins cannot replace dollar anytime soon is because our community isn't large enough to do so. Once mass adoption is taking over, everything that you guys said will become false.

I don't think bitcoins have to be settled by the central banks and have laws and all those stuff to replace dollars. If everyone starts using bitcoins, then bitcoin has replaced dollars. No law or anything required at all since bitcoins is decentralized.

I can only think of dollar as a huge wall that covers the existence of bitcoin. Bitcoin is there but people aren't aware of it.
