bitcoin bank would  be  nonsense  for me  hence what  would  be the  purpose of  wallets that used only for  bitcoin? FOr sure   most people would not tend to put their  bitcoin on a bank because its been  kept  by someone and we really dont  like that someone could able to  hold our bitcoin.

The unpredictability of results adds to the excitement of the game, plus if the stakes are higher, it adds more value. You can lose and still have fun because of the way you gamble. If it is sports betting and the game turns out to be a good one, it all adds up to the anticipation and the probability of the turn out.
This is  very true,  gambling  would  be fun  because  of  the unexpected   and  unpredictability  of the game  which  you could feel the thrill  and enjoyment that what makes  gambling  fun but  there are  most people  who would  change there  mood  if they would  suffer loss and thats  normal though for people.
9143  Economy / Economics / Re: Trade house for 1 bitcoin on: October 19, 2016, 12:29:38 PM
Someday a nice condo for 1 btc. Over 5 years for sure. For sure in Canada, that would be the case. A house in a regular

neighborhood that is just picket fence and hardworking parents, maybe sometime like that at LEAST 5-10 years.
I think its impossible to buy a nice condo with only 1btc within 5years or more. Its impossible for the price to jump so high that you can even buy a nice condo. Even the cheaper one I dont think 1btc is enough to purchased it in the next 5 years.

Well that is just like a dream that I want to go to the mars. But buying a nice condominium unit for just 1 bitcoin?

Well maybe you need to wait at least 50 years or even 20 years when the price is going to reach to $20,000 above. Because as of now.

Value of bitcoin is not sufficient to buy your own home.
Time will come that 1 Bitcoin will be valued at $100,000, I know you guys won't believe but me I am very optimistic with that as we are keeping our support in bitcoin and we have limited supply so with massive adoption the price will increase.

I couldnt blame you if your perspective about bitcoin  would reach  that price  but  for me  it would be impossible  even though it would  be succesful in the future. It would really need massive adoption   for bitcoins price  would rise this  high.

There is not sold a lot of clothes these days for bitcoins but I do not think that is bad thing, it just need some time.
The fashion world still needs to find out the bitcoin and a lot of industries need that too so its just that we need some patient.

It would really takes time  for  apparel industry   to adopt bitcoin , there might  some  sites  or merchants do accept bitcoin as a payment to their goods but   its not available world wide thats why  we  should wait and  hoping that it would be available soon for  that we could able to  buy clothing directly with bitcoins.
9146  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: is gambling fix your life? or wreck your life? on: October 19, 2016, 05:49:28 AM
For now gambling is fix my life but i dont know for future
because everytime we can lose and busted
so far gambling is give good impact on my life

Good thing that gambling has able to fix your life and just keep on doing it so that you are going to be able to have a good life with gambling. And you are few in this world that gambling has made their lives fixed. Not all the people is going to say that gambling has a good impact to their lives especially when gambling wrecked their lives.
When time comes that gambling will be able to fix my life I would wish that I will be a millionaire because of gambling, for sure that would certainly fix my life as I would build my own house and maybe quit gambling for good and spend my winnings for the good future of my family.
i think no one know in advance that when gambling is going to fix your life, it is always a chance and no one know that when the chance is going to click so you should continue your struggle and wait for the time.

I think the time that will gambling going to fix your life is when you realized that gambling is the one that is destroying your life.

And upon realizing that then that is the time when enlightenment is going to enter to your mind and you are going to fix your ways and going to stay away from it.

That is the most scenarios that are happening when a person says that gambling fixed his life.
People would really change  if  they  already experienced worst case scenario  of  being wrecked  on playing  gambling . As you said they  would realized  in the end and could able to fix their  life again and wont intend to do  gambling again. Thats why when we  do play gambling we should  not  let  come to the point that we are  being wrecked.

Hello, i browse through the forum, and even on the Avatar only campaign main thread, i can only see quite few of campaign listed as most required signature.

Therefore, in your opinion, is there any avatar campaign which is worth to join right now?

Thanks!

Personal message + Avatar is available

As you mentioned  you already browse  this forum  regarding on avatar  campaign. I could say that   most campaigns  now are  merging avatar and  signature campaign which  they make  it  as a package  and  not  on separate  pay as  i observe now  on  new campaigns  compared to previous altcoin campaigns.
9148  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you always missed the right time to sell/buy bitcoin? on: October 19, 2016, 05:38:06 AM
One problem is the price of bitcoin can be stable for weeks at a time in which case you can't make any money from trading.  Then what happens is that the price of bitcoin moves suddenly, but you make nothing because you are asleep.  So you do algo trading, and then you end up losing money because of bugs.
Trading with bots can be profitable but you need a good programmer, if you are not one yourself, and then you need to update the bot constantly in order to respond to new strategies that you may devise.

I do not think that its a good thing to do and that it can let you lose a lot of money too, I do not think that you should do it.
And the fact is that it can still let you lose a lot of money or sometimes its still even too slow..
If you have trading using bot for your trading job then you can have a good experience if that is profitable, however the market movement does not always move in one direction only, there are times that it moves the other way because of the big factors that might affect the its movement, like for example if there are crisis then you need to set your bot again, I think that is a hard job to do.

We cant  really rely fully on trading bots because  we couldnt  assure   if  we make  succesful trades anytime. Its better to do it manually because  you could able to control on when to sell or  buy  on a particular price point. We couldnt avoid such situation  on missing the  most exact time  to  buy or sell.

Btc is one of the only assets that can gain 20% in a day for no apparent reason.... I hope everyone is prepared and stocked up the current price because sometimes/usually the price jumps so fast there is no time to get  money on to exchanges etc...

You either already have the coins, or you don't.... Wink

In last  few  months  we could say that 20% profit in a day is possible  but  on the current state of bitcoin price  it would be hard  to  gain it  because  movements  are too little to gain profit at all.  but  in my side its  much better to see this  price movements on this way rather  than on hard pumps and  dumps.
9150  Economy / Economics / Re: What do you guess about he future of bitcoin? on: October 19, 2016, 05:23:32 AM
The bitcoin future looks very bright as you can see the market of btc never disappointed us..I believe bitcoin and will be a bitcoin enthusiast forever..

Agree with you, as we all  observe  on the  price growth  of  bitcoin  we could  definitely say that   bitcoin would have a good  future and  adoption rate     is still increasing nowadays. We are all here because  we  believe  on  bitcoin  and  its potential to grow even more in the future.
9151  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What would happen if BTC was Banned? on: October 19, 2016, 05:17:06 AM
Actually bitcoins are already banned in some countries, or at least was banned, for example Russia, people still used bitcoins even if they were punished for doing that


Some countries  banned  bitcoin for some  reasons and  they saw it as  a threat on their  economy and by  other means but still   people  would surely use it  even though it was  banned on their country we cant really stop people   on using it even though  its  prohibited  on a certain country.
9152  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Was bitcoin designed to be global? on: October 19, 2016, 05:08:53 AM
I think that the bitcoin is used global i dont know if he is designed to be global but when he is not designed for global use there will not everybody on planet have bitcoins so
i think he is designed for global use.

Me too I'm thinking that bitcoin was designed to be global. Because this is the first currency that we can be used all over the world. And we don't have to convert it to our fiat money in able to have transactions abroad. And good thing that bitcoin has been adopted by many people so we are not going to have any problems for its mass adoption.

ITs really designed to be  used globally because  we  are  all on a single blockchain  which all networks   all bitcoins users as  long  there is internet  then we are all connected to each  other  by means of wallets addresses.  As you said   we  wont  have  really have a hard time  to send and recieve funds  came from other side of the world.
9153  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Are transaction fees lower if I keep all my bitcoins in 1 address? on: October 19, 2016, 05:06:52 AM
you could use Coinbase and Xapo wallete. there are no tranjecstion fee available.i am using coinbase.many people said that coinbase are not too much safe bt i think its safe and secure to me. hope you will open a coinbase wallet for better tranjection because its free and easy to use also

I  agree with you, im using coinbase too  which dont have   transaction fee when you send  bitcoin but  expect  the transfer times would be  long . As i  understand  on OP queries  transaction fees are  just   amount that is  being  charged  for  the  transaction time. If you put  a fee then expect  faster confirmations.
9154  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do people really make millions of $ transactions? on: October 18, 2016, 06:58:05 AM
http://prnt.sc/cvl4x0

These BTC amounts are equivalent to millions of $. Do people really make such huge BTC transactions? I'm surprised. What could these transactions be for I wonder? These must be really filthy rich people who have millions of $ of BTCs. I personally would be very wary of keeping millions of my money online like this especially knowing that it isn't safe (example: mtgox and bitfinex hacks).

If you try  to see the recent transfers on  blockchain.info  you would really see even more  amounts  of huge amounts of  bitcoins lets say  200- 700 btc  transfer  which is  really awesome  that these  million of dollars are being transfered  in  online without any hassle.
9155  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is unpredictable job. on: October 18, 2016, 06:53:22 AM
Unpredictable is good word. When you are in.trading business things can go so smooth and you are making nice profit but very soon this can change and you start to lose or getting nowhere. There is no proven strategy that will ensure you to be profitable all the time.
And if you want to earn some substantial amount you need big starting capital.
for me trading is one reasonable job. trading like any other job. oh yes, trading does not require a large capital. we can start from very slightly. for example, we can trade altcoin to conserve our capital.

yes I agree unpredictable but having knowledge and experience would definitely up your chances when trading. you may lose some, but from experiences the movement of the coins will not be negative all the time
yes that is right that trading is unpredictable but for those who have no experience and having no skill of trading as there are so many people who are really good in trading. and their prediction in trading is also very good.
There is no way to predict everything all the time, there are always things that we cannot foresee like sudden economic crisis, natural disasters, business doing fraudulent things, etc.

We dont have the capability to predict  future and  to all  thing  that  might happen next because we are  just  human after all. Thats why we  should really need  to make  up some  research  so that we are  updated  to the latest  things. Like on trading  its price  is too unpredictable.
9156  Other / Off-topic / Re: Is Bitcoin designed to last forever? on: October 18, 2016, 06:48:03 AM
No, in my opinion it is designed to last until no one use it anymore. Because that is the only reason why do bitcoin exist, because many people are using it and getting benefited with it by earning bitcoin in an easy way. Do you think that a car will last forever if no one use it, just left there in the garage and got stocked for a long time ago? It's machine will not work anymore because it didn't have any maintenance because it is abandoned by someone. It goes the same on bitcoin it will get disappear in time when no one use it anymore and it will not last forever.

You can't compare bitcoin to a car, it;s not the same. Bitcoin is designed to last and has open source code to be improved day by day.

How dumb  to compare a car and a digital currency? lol . Bitcoin may not  design to last forever  but as  long  people  would  really use it and adopt it  it would  sure  exist  for  longer years for sure. About cars they are somehow  persistent  because   its  a common need  for us  in means of transportation.
9157  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price stuck ? on: October 18, 2016, 06:43:54 AM
Bitcoins  price  is  stuck for  how many  months  though but  as we  all witness now that bitcoins price as  of now  is starting  to climb  up and  even hitting again the  $640 mark which is  really a good sign that  bitcoins adoption is starting   up to  move  again which could really affect the bitcoins price.
9158  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How greedy you are ? on: October 18, 2016, 06:32:14 AM
Haven't played in a while but I know I'm exactly between the self control and being greedy. I don't know how but I got to 'escape' out of this addiction, and I feel great now.

Good thing that you are able to escape out of your greediness and addiction with gambling. And it is better if you are going to share it how you did get out of that attitude so that other gamblers would love to get inspired with the way you get out of it. Even I, I was a greedy person but upon experiencing bankruptcy it all stopped.

There are really people  do have strong  self  control and awareness when it comes to  gambling thats  why they could able to avoid  addiction on early stages .  Some may stop only if they already experiencing   bankruptcy which  could  make this thing   realized them  on the effect of  doing  excessive  gambling.
9159  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What Happens if I lose my Bitcoins? on: October 18, 2016, 06:26:36 AM
the lost bitcoins are lost forever, and this give more power(price )for the rest remaining

if you send into wrong address then you can not get your bitcoins back. and it will be lost forever and you can not do anything when its happen to you. so be careful when you want to send.

You wont really get  those bitcoins  if you accidentaly sent  it to a  random address because  the owner of that wallet would  be grateful that  theres a blessing comes  to his wallet. lol.  They wont  mind  to give it back or send  it back to  the  owner because  thats already a money and  its precious for us  and dont tend  to give it back.
9160  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin replaces the money? Could happen? on: October 18, 2016, 06:23:01 AM
Bitcoin is never going to replace money because it is going to be different from country because it would not be possible for Bitcoin to take over all currencies.
Maybe that it will take over a currency from a certain country but I think that it is not going to happen.

We don't know what is going to happen in the future but if we are going to base on our modern era. There are many billionaires that are preferring to use money which has been digitized and bitcoin is good to count and consider with it. So I think that is possible in the future but that is not possible to happen in this days.
Well, there is no impossible things that would happen as this world changes from time to time, we do not know the future so there is possibility but what we are talking here is the chances and I believe the chances to make that happen is very low.
How can a limited type of currency be circulated all around the world? 21000000 ain't enough for all of us. And the rich ones will take advantage of it and will hoard it for its price to increase. The government will take certain steps of precautions before that will ever happen. There are bad scenarios that will happen if you think that bitcoin will ever replace fiat money.

Rich people  would  really use  its  edge  regarding on  holding  huge amounts  of bitcoin. As you said government would  really  make steps to prevent this thing  on happening. Bitcoin cant replace fiat  anytime soon  no matter how it would be succesful but still theres  no chance that could  replace fiat in any way.
Fiat is an essential part of a lot of states that exist in today's world, and likely a lot of the places and countries around the world would be unable to function without fiat money. A change to something that is *more* backed by something as opposed to just trust would be a huge change.

Indeed,  fiat  is  considered as a blood  on every state because  all things are being  moved  by  money which  it circulates  on the economy. It wont really function  if   fiat  presence isnt there  thats  why  fiat  plays an  important role  on  economic state and thats  too hard to  bitcoin to replace it.
