1421  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: would you live in a country that use bitcoin as official currency? on: September 22, 2017, 04:09:06 AM
I think that government accepting bitcoin is great but if they will implement it with taxes, I don't think that it is beneficiary. I would rather live in a country that both fiat and bitcoins are used.

Yes, it won't be good. It's better to live in a country where Bitcoin isn't even regulated. The taxes would be already a big issue for citizens of this country using Bitcoin as official currency, but another issue would be the unstable situation on the economy as Bitcoin is very volatile and "controlled" by an universal power, the supply and demand from everyone on the planet. It would be easy for a rival country to cheat your economy by influencing Bitcoin price.
1422  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin for Taxi on: September 22, 2017, 03:35:23 AM
I think it would be great if you could pay your Taxi-drive with Bitcoin! U agree with me?

no i dont, if this mode of payment implement in my country as bitcoin pay your taxi-drive, it can cause more crimes, i mean some bad people are hunting down those bitcoin holder after he/she paid her/his taxi-drive (declaring hold-up). even this idea is a good to implement, we all knew that all bad guys are in everywhere at anytime, so its a life risky if this idea happens.

i am sure that there are many ways to prevent this and we need to secure our account if we want to pay with crypto currency. but i think if this is really implemented then we have many option to pay the fees. i see that uber is trying to used crypto currency and i heard in some country, people can try this with their coins.

To prevent this you would need to make payments in Bitcoin only from addresses with low amounts of Bitcoins, so nobody will try to extort you. If taxis/cabs start accepting Bitcoin as payment method they can have some advantage over Uber service for now.

I would gamble using altcoin but I see no difference if I ever pick other than bitcoin. The value will still be the same but I feel others will pick other altcoins because for some people btc is very valuable to be used in gambling.
The belief changes depending on how the market is moving, at the beginning of the year when altcoins were very bullish then no one wanted to gamble their altcoins, now that bitcoin is the one that is hot then no one wants to gamble with their bitcoin because they get the felling that it still has some room to grow before the end of the year.

I think it doesn't affect all gamblers. They are gambling with Bitcoins because they can't or don't want to gamble with fiat. So they convert their money into Bitcoin to gamble and when they want to cashout they just convert it to fiat again. I think they aren't very worried about Bitcoin price and AltCoins, they just want to find an alternative way to play as they can't use fiat to do it. I would risk saying most gamblers who play big think this way...

There is no link. Nothing opens.

Also, 10 cents for each ads viewed is too much. The cashout must be high as well turning this offer most probably a scam one.
Most PTC sites pay $0.001 per ads viewed (and they need to do their best to don't fail, and most of them fail).
1426  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Is Falling Down? on: September 21, 2017, 11:45:58 PM
Every time when the bitcoin price declined dramaticallay, it saw another all time high price after that decline. So we can easily expect $5000 soon for bitcoin's price.
It's because there need to be a correction to allow people to cash out their profits, but at the same time attract capital to enter the market. Nothing in the world increases in one straight line.

People here shouldn't forget that a lot investors are very short term minded, and thus are guaranteed to cash out their profits after a while. Funny thing is that these people quite often end up re-entering the market at a premium.

Bitcoin has been growing in value constantly, and if we look at people who thought to had a good deal by cashing out at $2000, they can't be anything but disappointed in themselves for doing so ~ Bitcoin doesn't wait for anyone.

If you sold too early, you either wait for the price to fall down, which might not even happen, or you buy back at higher levels ~ everything has a risk involved, but the latter mentioned is the best option, long term speaking.

Interesting view. Bitcoin can lose price like now to attract more people to start investing in Bitcoins, especially those investing for the first time, giving them a chance to buy cheap and hold for future profit.

Who is buying or holding and expecting profit on short term is doing it wrongly. Bitcoin is an investment for who doesn't have a deadline to cashout, it's for people who wants to invest and forget about it for a while and come back later without worries.

I was observing the computer becomes full of cookies too fast (making the machine slower) when using faucets, especially these days.

Do you clean your cache once in how much time interval? And do you recommend which browser to claim on faucets?
1428  Economy / Economics / Re: Is the economy situation in your country that bad? on: September 21, 2017, 04:04:02 PM
In my country the situation is not good at all. It's too bad and it's very bad actually. Every citizen can make his life better or not, but the Government will surely don't do that.
Yes, I think the economy in my country also looks bad with the look of an increasingly large number of jobless growth year ever-increasing but the Government look relaxed with it. with so many vacancies are there but no definitions of the criteria or requirements specified. then someone will find it very difficult to change their lives even rise from slump although desirous of louder and many feel despair.

That is a common situation on many countries nowadays. The problem is that governments didn't manage their countries well for long periods of time. Most of them were worried with the polls, so they just wanted to win it to continue ruling the country, then they created problems and problems for the future, like a Ponzi scheme. Now the consequences are happening and people aren't satisfied.
1429  Economy / Economics / Re: Should I stop Buying BTC? on: September 21, 2017, 04:43:47 AM
No. now is the perfect time to buy more bitcoins because it's cheap due to the certain issues coming from China and JP Morgan.

BTC is far from cheap given its past recent prices. Will todays price be cheap compared to future prices? Possibly.
Of course yes, it is cheaper right now compare to the future prices of bitcoin because the demand will make bitcoin even more expensive and that is what we want for bitcoin as of now. We want a higher price for bitcoin and because of the adoption and also the improvements in bitcoin it will become a true one and it will benefit all the people who will buy now and decide for long term.

Smart people think big, think on long term. They don't bother to pay $5000 for 1 BTC now (what it's not the case, as we can buy it for $4000). I agree with you, it's very cheap compared to its potential. We will watch BTC growing year after year, there are many people joining Crypto-Currency now and they are helping the market to increase Bitcoin's price by increasing the demand.

If I had money I would buy more and more Bitcoins, maximum as possible while it's cheap yet.
1430  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: freebitco.in "Browser Mining" - is it worth it? on: September 21, 2017, 03:16:40 AM
Mining option seems no more accessible on the site because it might have created lots of negative reviews for freebitco.in they might be trying to do something different but people might actually burn their laptop/pc when trying to get few satoshi from this type of bitcoin mining.

This one seems to be their another failed attempt to look different than another faucet out there.

It's accessible yet, not for everyone as it's an experiment yet for few or some users.

I don't know yet if it worth, maybe for who has powerful machines it can be interesting, but for who has cheap laptops it won't be profitable, it won't pay even the electricity you are spending. Anyway if you want to check when the time comes for all, just set low CPU usage to prevent damage to your laptop.
1431  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Paying with Btcoin on: September 21, 2017, 12:58:39 AM
Where can pay with BTC to electrical Institute for getting training course .

In my country, there are schools / institutes where you can pay them with bitcoin. I don't know if the exchange is just converting it to fiat before paying it to the designation of your payment. But with your concern, I don't have an idea if there is a training course or institute that is now accepting bitcoin. And do you mean online training course? or do you mean near in your place? Where do you even live?

Official institutes/schools you mean or independent ones? I have never seen any institute considered official by the country accepting Bitcoins, maybe only independent courses especially online. They can be good too, but worhtless depending where you will work as there are many places that only accept certificates from courses/schools considered legal by the governments.

If you'll read again what I said, I don't really know if those schools or institutes that are supported by that exchange directly paying bitcoins to them or they are converting it first to fiat before transmitting to those schools. If it is not clear to you, it's like this. Bitcoin user > exchange > (fiat/bitcoin) > schools. That's the process that I'm saying for those schools and institutes that accepts bitcoin.

What I mean is that these schools probaly are not considered legit by the country. Legal insitutes can't accept Bitcoin as payment method, imagine how difficult it's for exchanges to set up their businesses on a country, now imagine a school, too much bureaucracy. The schools doing this are probably independent, decentralized I mean...
1432  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin as salary for a regular job? on: September 20, 2017, 01:38:50 AM
No matter whether I can convert it to my local currency or not or it's as widely accepted in my country as it in some other ones I wouldn't accept bitcoin as my salary for regular job. It's because of the very reason given by lots of members already and that's volatility. I can and I do accept it as a remuneration to the tasks or money making activities I do on the internet but as a salary for my regular job no way.

That makes sense. I would just accept Bitcoin as payment for regular job if I would have a good amount of money saved in fiat. So if the Bitcoin price drops too much I would have some money in fiat to spend and pay my expenses until Bitcoin price recovers and start increasing again. With a saving account in fiat with a decent amount of money there isn't problem. And volatility is almost always positive.
1433  Economy / Economics / Re: How many can resist selling off their BTC for huge profits? on: September 20, 2017, 12:46:29 AM
Many people are resisting as their goal is long term profit, doesn't matter how much profit they can get now. If the price is increasing too much on short-medium term, imagine how good it can be on long term. 500% is nothing for who is holding since Bitcoin was created or since some years ago. And those who will sell won't sell all their coins, they will probably keep holding a good amount of Bitcoins.

1435  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the expected transaction fee (satoshi/byte) in the long-term? on: September 19, 2017, 09:31:52 PM
I think it's impossible to predict it exactly. If the Bitcoin's users number increase there will be more transactions, so the transactions fees will increase. If this number increases too much, the fees will be very expensive.

But as technology is unlimited, I believe there could be solutions in the future to prevent this issue, to make transactions faster to be completed, allowing us to pay reasonable low fees. And I'm not talking about palliative solutions that work for some short period of time like now.

People usually use another Crypto-Currencies when Bitcoin fees are too high. Until this problem is solved people will keep doing this.
1436  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: lucky ! does it influences by a woman beside of us? on: September 19, 2017, 07:57:51 PM
Its just math and timing , apart from this nothing matters . You go for over 99 on dice 100 times , you may hit it 3 times or 0 times it just depends on the seed and nothing else . Superstition is not soooo good in gambling , it will make you loose more than you want to .
maybe its just inside our minds thinking that there's some luck  that will happen if we believe doing this stuff, but for most of the time girls
just tricking our minds when we played and its much bigger chances to lose your money after.
Luck does matter and it exists, well, if girls are sitting beside you then you are not of any choice than to do whatever they are telling you. So ultimately the luck of that girl depends on you if you are not listening to her, if she is lucky then dude, better life you would be having.

While there is money on the table, there will be women around you...

When the money is gone, women will probably be gone as well. That could create a situation where you think you are lucky because there are women beside you, as when you are winning she/they will be there, but when you start losing she/they won't be there, so you became unlucky...
I don't believe it really influence anyone's game.
1437  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: how to get bitcoin again if it's gone and it's gone because of scammers on: September 19, 2017, 07:34:47 PM
Once the money is gone, it's gone. You can't recover it anymore, you have sent it to another's wallet, and only its owner will have access to it. The only way would be to contact a hacker or authorities that could try tracking the thief on the internet, but that is hard and only very professional hackers will be able to complete the mission. Also, if you report it to authorities you can create problems for yourself as it's forbidden to invest in Ponzi HYIP in some countries.

https://imgur.com/a/TdCGB

I am working on adding it to the site but I feel that it will break a few things. I see what I can do. We are going to replace the site slowly with images like this in order to make it look more like a game.

We hope you like it because we do.

That is a nice picture for login page. At first impression looks like a MMORPG game.
I liked it and I think it's much more adequate for the site "wallpaper" than the currently one we have now.

It will be nice to see new features on the site, if possible.
1439  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin on Uber on: September 19, 2017, 05:08:50 PM
Its a good news for me. It can help to promote bitcoins more. In my country taxi look more expensive as compare to Uber. But what about the transaction fee ?. You're paying Uber Fee plus transaction fee.  Isn't its become expensive ?. and how you deal with the confirmation time as I dont think uber driver or the passenger can wait 15 to 30 mins for transaction to be confirmed.

Yes, fees are probably a big issue yet. To make it work you would need to pay an expensive fee to complete the transaction in few minutes, otherwise the Uber driver could reject your Bitcoin paying method, there are sites which can help you to find what is the most adviced fee to pay on the respective moment. Debit cards are still better for this in my opinion (BTC debit cards or fiat debit cards).
1440  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Different betting strategies for dice games or similar on: September 19, 2017, 05:03:35 PM
Interesting strategies I have seen consist in setting a low winning chance like 1%-5%, increasing only a bit the bet on loss without returning to base when you win. There are several strategies like this on Youtube, each one of them with small modifications. As I said, they are interesting and work for some time, but it doesn't mean you will achieve profit from them on long term.
