I would like to have known Bitcoin before, at least 2013. That was a good time, I could make a lot of profit even by using faucets on that time and holding until now! I would use faucets maximum as possible, grab all satoshis and who knows I could have now 1 Bitcoin just by using faucets... Also, on that time I believe it was much easier to refer people to main faucets like FreeBitco.in and FreeDoge.co.in, making a lot of profit from commissions.

No paying, Its Dry! Go and load some satoshis bro..

Yes, I can confirm it's paying.

If you want to have traffic on your site increase the rates.
1223  Economy / Economics / Re: Natural money on: October 20, 2017, 06:36:27 PM
For me 'Natural Money' was what people used to trade much time ago on the first ages of the world when people used items to trade for another items they needed. For an example: I produce wood, you produce stone, so you give me stone and I give you wood as we need both materials, but we can't produce all of them at same time... Any other kind of natural money seems too artificial for me...  Cheesy

They can be using it right now and no one here knows... Nothing is stopping them to use Bitcoins, it surely can help thieves to make their deals around the world, but if they are on the target of authorities they can be tracked and found. The question is: What is stopping authorities to arrest the big cartels and destroy the drug's market?
1225  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: losing 50 bitcoins gambling on: October 20, 2017, 01:49:35 AM
How would you feel if you lost 50 btc after gambling... https://nitrogensports.eu/betslip/92ff9f2dmRCeSttM0U0a1dPZ0tTSDd4OW4vZz09/r/2744 What's the biggest loss you've taken before, and do you have any good coping strategies? I do wonder if it's better or not to express anger or to just try and ignore it as best as possible. Personally I just get angry and yell some swears, but curious how other people react when losing and any tips on coping.

In the event that I lost 50 bitcoins in a gamble, then I would inevitably be depressed and reflect on my actions as an individual with priorities. That is primarily the reason why gambling has the potential in destroying your life when it comes to decision making. It creates this endless illusion of you betting and betting again regardless of your winnings or losings. Gambling can never be profitable in the long-run and that link is the living example of it especially when YOU DO NOT KNOW WHEN AND HOW TO STOP gambling.
Can you imagine losing something close to 300k dollars in a few hours? I will be devastated, that amount of money is enough in my country to buy several properties, and if you hold for a long time and the price of bitcoin becomes higher that could be enough to retire and never have to work again.

Only rich people can gamble so much money like that in few hours and if it's a rich person there is much more money besides the 50 BTCs lost on gambling game. So I think this person wouldn't become mad about it... Probably this person would recover the 50 BTCs really fast with investments or income from any kind of rentable business. We think this is extreme because we don't have much money on our pockets like these big gamblers.  Cheesy
1226  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Coinmarketcap advertising Ponzi site on: October 20, 2017, 01:12:54 AM
It is what it is mate. This is what's keep the site still alive and giving valuable informations we need for statistical analysis on cryptocurrencies. Maybe this give them good profits. But this is bad because they are promoting ponzi sites. Im not sure it's a ponzi. But 12% seems suspicious to me. Anyway, it's fine to me since im aware about ponzi schemes lurking all over the internet. And wee have nothing to do about that since it's their site. Actually even on some legit sites we see some ponzi advertisements on them. So invest at your own risks. Me, i just ignore them. Quite annoying but what can we do about that?

For us who are familiar with Crypto-Currency world it's not a problem as we can detect a Ponzi scheme easily, but for beginners it can be considered a legit site, especially being advertised by a popular Crypto site that is Coinmarketcap... That is a trap for newbies and I think Coinmarketcap loses reputation by accepting this kind of banner on their site.

When I click on the banner I can see really fast the referral link: "Noah12". So they are not only promoting the site, but referring people to earn comission over the investors.
1227  Economy / Economics / Re: plan for the future with bitcoin on: October 20, 2017, 01:04:32 AM
Now, i so not really have a clear plan for bitcoin, but i am just thinking about saving the maximum possible of coins and trying to invest them at the right time and when i really feel that i can get a big win from bitcoin.

To save Bitcoins is the safest way to invest money for the future. Bitcoin is already an investment itself. When you use your Bitcoins to invest into a project or any other kind of online investment, you are risking your money and depending the investment there is a scale of risk that goes from low to high. Low risk would be trusted sites paying cheap interest, high risk would be Ponzi, HYIP schemes. Each person has a different plan for the future, it's different for each person because each one is able to take different levels of risk. So if you want safe, just continue holding.
1228  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Best Countries for Bitcoin Businesses on: October 19, 2017, 11:20:35 PM
Best Countries for Bitcoin Businesses is a country that legalized the use bitcoin so you can be free

no, i think the best one would be a country where bitcoin is free to use, because not regulated at all

with this you can avoid possible taxes and other crap like that

Yes, these countries without regulamentations over Bitcoin are the best to have businesses as you won't have bureaucracy. There is only a negative point: The regulamentation can come anytime if the country's command wishes and when it comes you won't have how to run from it... Or you close the business or you adequate yourself on the new rules. It's an unstable situation.
1229  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The 10.000 btc pizza... on: October 19, 2017, 11:09:10 PM
I'm not sure if these people spending Bitcoin on early days made possible our currently reality. Most Bitcoin enthusiasts weren't and aren't buying Bitcoins to order food, buy stuff, they are doing this to grow their money holding Bitcoins. People just need to start selling all their Bitcoins to dump the price to the ground.

It depends what you want to know about Crypto-Currency. Check the respective section of your interest.

There are several mistakes that must be avoided when earning Bitcoins. Check the pinned posts on this section.
1231  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why does China hate Bitcoin? on: October 19, 2017, 02:44:34 PM
We all know that china is a communist country having lots of regulations and restrictions.it always wants to keep its people under its strict control.Bitcoin is a currency which has been created to give financial freedom to people.Just we could understand that both are contrast.China does not want to loose its control over its people,either due to bitcoin or other.It does not want its country's wealth to be transacted via bitcoin outside its boundary and get invested in other countries.Also,it does not want its own currency yuan losing its value due to bitcoin.So,it has started to take severe actions against bitcoin.

I agree, chinese government likes to control their citizen's lifes and to have control over maximum sectors as possible. Bitcoin represents exactly the opposite of chinese government and that is a threat for them if used as it was planned on its essence. So what they try to do is to subvert the nature of Bitcoin to make it more agreeable to their rules and who knows, take some advantage over it and over their people as individuals.

Thank you for 10 satoshis. But aren't two short links for 10 satoshis reward too much?

Anyway, it was the first claim, maybe on the next ones it will be one short link on each claim.

Good luck with your faucet, possible to make $0.006 hourly with this in BTCs.
1233  Economy / Economics / Re: What is a good amount of BTC to Buy? on: October 19, 2017, 02:11:02 PM
For beginners I think $100-$200 is a good amount to start. Buy and see how it works, learn how to storage your coins, watch your progress along the weeks/months, calculate the profit you can make. If you really like your experience with Bitcoins, buy more. If you have conditions I think at least 0.5 BTC is an interesting amount to hold as BTC price now is expensive, but it will become even more expensive.
1234  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Turning crypto into fiat or is that even nessesary anymore! on: October 19, 2017, 01:53:46 PM
Right now converting to fiat is a must requirement, because with bitcoin we haven't got that acceptance in all markets same as that we use traditional currency. So, till such an situation exists we are supposed to convert and use it. Partly the direct acceptance from several companies have been getting increased.
Absolutely right. Bitcoin is not fiat money and we can't buy and use money through bitcoin. In order to do our own work fiat money is necessary. Then we need to exchange our bitcoin on our fiat currency which is accepted by everywhere.
No doubt adoption is still in its early stage and truly, unless we want to deceive ourselves, except for some who receive their major earning with bitcoin and will need to withdraw part of it for upkeep, most people are looking forward to the long term holding.

So, even if we see much adoption from merchants, we might not really see much spendings for now except for some who already have more than enough and can gladly use some to buy somethings. Nevertheless, it is a gradual process and a time will come when bitcoin will be accepted more than we have now.
We are yet on adoption stage and developments is really gradually increasing which means we can really expect that soon many more merchants would able to accept bitcoins in exchange with their service and goods.For now we are still on the stage on actively exchanging our bitcoins in fiat because we know not all parts of the world have the same adoption on each places.

Retailers acceptance on bitcoin is not grown in all the places. There are very few places in Europe and Northern America accepting bitcoin in some merchant stores. Other bitcoin now widely started using in online stores and many people are requesting for the API to add in their online stores. Soon amazon is also gonna accept bitcoin. You have to wait till some years to see bitcoin everywhere.
A lot of people are having the bitcoin now and they are making the bitcoin for the online shopping I don’t know why a lot of the people are holding the bitcoin just to sell it at the panic or to waste the bitcoin for the low price, it is the time to buy the bitcoin and then make the bitcoin the part of your life so buy more and it is easy to buy all the things you can buy from money then why you want to change it.

It's because they can't buy things they are interested because the sellers don't accept Bitcoin yet. But if you don't want to convert Crypto to fiat to buy things you can use a debit card that convert Crypto to fiat instantly on each transaction you execute. I have seen on Youtube a guy using a debit card like this to order fast food and it worked very well... Probably this card takes some extra fee for itself on each transaction, but I'm not sure.

1 More question , do you know any Other places to advertise my faucet?

Facebook groups, Twitter (using 'key' hashtags), asking rotator's owners to put your faucet on their lists.
Let's say i want to ask for rotator's owners to add my faucet to the list , Where do i find them? do they have special topic on bitcointalk forum? or on this micro earnings Topic i can find some of them?

Always that I click on your site I see a threat message from antivirus, saying you try to run a "Miner" on my computer. Are you using that feature that uses our CPU power to mine Crypto-Currency (CoinHive)?

I think the reward is low for hourly faucet (I got 20 satoshis) and 1000 satoshis withdraw is too high, it will take several hours until we be able to make our first withdraw and check if the faucet is legit.
1238  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Accepting bitcoin for service on: October 18, 2017, 06:42:16 PM
Bitcoin is a huge opportunity for all of us. The strive for finding a job was made a bit easier by bitcoin. You just have to prove that you are competent and a quality worker. Bitcoin is not limited to a specific place or any countries that is why even there is a large gap or distance, there will be opportunities for everyone to provide services. I just hope that we use it in a right and honest way.
I totally can connect and agree with you on that. It totally depends on the service the OP has to offer. No huge setup than having a wallet and making himself relevant in either the community or freelance platform that allows payment in bitcoin.

Programming, web design, graphic design etc are services that can be rendered once you have such skills or just stick to this forum and go to the services section to look for ways you can fit in.

If it is about receiving payment probably via ecommerce platform, then look for how you can integrate some APIs into your website to allow users make payment in bitcoin, but you still need a wallet to do that.

Not only on the virtual world, but he can accept Bitcoins as payment method for any kind of business he is operating. On physical world there are sellers with their physical stores and products that can accept Bitcoins as payment. They just need to put a sign on their places "Bitcoin accepted here", so customers that have interest will ask them how to pay with Bitcoins or if the customers are already enthusiasts they will just ask the address to deposit the Bitcoins.

It's simple, at least at the beginning, when it's something new and the regulators don't know much about it...
1239  Other / Off-topic / Re: how to be positive on: October 18, 2017, 06:12:57 PM
Try to understand the situation, sometimes bad things happen and we feel confuse and sometimes angry, but I believe if we could understand and interpret the facts we can avoid situations like this later or help others to do the same. To be positive only isn't enough, a blind positivism is worthless. It can be applied for any situations.
1240  Economy / Speculation / Re: This family bet it all on Bitcoin on: October 18, 2017, 05:04:26 PM
Seems too risky and irresponsible as there are three children involved. But good luck for them anyway. If I would do something like this I would try making progressive profit in fiat again. Like now, BTC hit $5700, then I would exchange part of the BTCs to fiat again, and when BTC hit let's say, $7000, I would exchange another part of the BTCs to fiat again... To wait until 2020 hoping to quadruplicate the money at once when you have nothing more is extreme.  Cheesy
