both of them is very usefully for me, well it has different usefulness if you prefer money in cash you can buy anything on your place or environments, but if your money to be in bitcoin you can buy anything in online store or grow your bitcoin and make some profit with this.

Look Bitcoin is now $492, it mean bitcoin will grow more.
The next month Bitcoin will cross the $550, and may be above.
It is good sign, specially in that moment, because before 2 week bitcoin come down, and now bitcoin pick up his race.
I think mostly people feel happy about it, just like me.
What are you thinking now ?
Wow, good news I've heard for this day, well,let's take more step to gain more profit with them, maybe next week the price of bitcoin is more going up  still $ 500 ++, but nobody knows the price bitcoin will survive until when bitcoin is good for investment. I think for now it's real and fact. Grin maybe a lot of traders not to waste this opportunity.

Over the past two years, 6 million residents of the United Kingdom have been denied bank accounts.

According to a study conducted by competing banking service Pockit, since 2014 one in eight adults have been rejected by banks.

Additionally, the study found that six out of 10 of their customers thought that banks did not care to accommodate the needs of low-income workers.


Check out the article : http://cointelegraph.com/news/uk-banks-refused-6-million-citizens-accounts-bitcoin-doesnt-refuse-anyone
Wow that's amazing but we need to know basically bank and bitcoin have the different system, in a bank you need you personally account data  to sign up them, many requirements for bank to accepted we as their customer, but on bitcoin only need a sign up with bitcoin wallet no need more requirement like bank. well,both of them have a different policy and advantages,banks make such system to minimize various criminal activities..
7846  Other / Off-topic / Re: When is it useful to borrow bitcoin? on: May 26, 2016, 01:57:33 AM
When is it useful to borrow bitcoin? Considering that it is really hard to get a loan here on this forum even with escrow, and the plentiful amount of scammers floating around here, is there really a great reason to even bother getting a loan here? I mean unless you're flat broke I could understand but even still it's an uphill battle. It's way easier to take out a cash advance in an emergency. I suppose if you're dealing with a trusted borrower and trustworthy escrow you may have a chance in obtaining your funds. Other than that, it can be difficult for a scam-less transaction to take place.
it's will be useful if haven't to borrow some bitcoin. My suggest you can try to search bitcoin with you don't think to borrow, you have skill man you can think way to get bitcoin. try to be a independently person. don't be rely with borrow it.
7847  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin versus Ether: the people difference is everything on: May 26, 2016, 01:34:17 AM
Technology? Supply? Contracts? Let's be frank. I don't give a damn. The microwave oven remains the perfect example of my point. I know how to use but I have no need to understand how it works. Nor do I care.

What matters is people.

BTC is ungoverned. We've seen that the BTC Core team is unable to fix problems (or way to slow). Will the foundation make a comeback? Satoshi Nakamoto? I would have liked Craig Wright to be Satoshi, he would make a nice ambassador.

On the Ether side, I see Vitalik Buterin who is smart, young, very knowledgeable, so much that I trust his abilities to find and implement solutions if a problem arise. I have no doubt the scalability issue BTC's facing would have been fixed months ago if he was running BTC.

So I'm afraid Ether will pass BTC some day, not because of better tech, but because of better and stronger leadership.
Are you serious?? ETH it's only alt coins and just their value is rely with bitcoin.ETH can't beat bitcoin.... so I can say no for that. this question just same with bitcoin versus USD. You can't to compare it because ETH it's a part of bitcoin. ETH not have value if no bitcoin.
7848  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: ready for bitcoin halving? on: May 26, 2016, 01:24:59 AM
are you ready for bitcoin halving? what can you say about the halving Huh
I ready for it,i'm is very curious with what will happen to the forum or exchange website if the price is halving, but I think I want to buy some coins and want to keep or hold it to the price is going up. well, we just wait and don't be panic for it. if you don't want to panic selling its happen with you. keep stay for it. Grin
7849  Economy / Marketplace / Re: What would you like to buy? on: May 25, 2016, 01:23:01 AM
Currently I am looking for some Dry Fruits and for Tin Packed Foods  for bitcoin. if anyone know any sites or source about them please share them..

I've saw that water is also listed in the OP's list. you should remove that because no one going to buy water with bitcoin.


Water is a basic necessity of people and I don't think there is a company that will offer water, mineral water through bitcoin.
Because only depressed area doesn't have water and it is impossible for them to use and buy with bitcoin.
It would be perfect if there will be a possibility that I can buy some clothes or cars and that would be nice and we have to make Bitcoin also more acceptable and that is important.
But of course it will be hard that you can make some more money with it so that is difficult.

I too would buy car as i define this as  basic necessity like clothing,food,shelter and others. I would mostly buy the outdoor equipments for more physical activity. But practically i would want to earn for another source of income for collateral in case i get fired on my job and get bored here in btc.
Well, you want to buy car, do you have other job apart of this job? I think, we need more salary if we want to buy car....  because only rely with this job will take a long time for we to buy car with little salary......

Anyone know if I can purchase a gift card with Bitcoins anywhere at a legit site?  Steam doesn't seem to take Bitcoins yet...
You can try at this site, but only slightly online store accept steam gift card payment with BTC. I think this one:

https://giftoff.com/gift-cards/steam-wallet

or you can buy other giftcard like amazon gift card and etc on here

7851  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A teen is given $1K to invest into Bitcoin - what would you recommend for them? on: May 25, 2016, 12:18:07 AM
Let's say a young teenager is given some coming-of-age money from their family, and is interested in growing that money through Bitcoin. Without encouraging him/her to invest in risky strategies, what are some lower risk methods of growing a Bitcoin portfolio with a hypothetical gift of $1K?
I am very recomendedly for this teen to hold and sell on high price, Well I think only this way have a low level risk than others, But if he want to choose the other way will always have risk with various different level, Well, only that's way to make bitcoin growing with low level risk. Basically it's a very simple way to get some profit for teen.
7852  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [POLL] Do you prefer your money to be in cash or bitcoins? on: May 24, 2016, 02:22:48 PM
The price of bitcoin is regularly fluctuating, so you might get $100 worth of bitcoins now, $50 or $200 worth of bitcoins tomorrow, who knows? So, do you prefer a currency that is more stable, like cash (USD, EUR...), or do you treat bitcoins as a currency, for investment to let it grow?

State why you prefer your option. Smiley
For investment BTC it's my choice, however for stable currency I think USD is better than btc..... to grow bitcoin we need to be attempted and thinking what can make bitcoin grow..... because if we only wait the price of bitcoin is going up, maybe it's need take  a long time and will waste our time.

7853  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Large gaming platform does not allow Bitcoin payment - Not regulated by law on: May 24, 2016, 07:34:20 AM
it's not really important, the very large gaming platform already adopted bitcoin and it is called steam, all other platform are obsolete now that steam accept bitcoin

i guess that gog will follow soon
When steam accept bitcoin payment?

http://www.ign.com/articles/2016/04/22/steam-reportedly-going-to-accept-bitcoin

It's need more confirmation from steam, if you heard a new news you need to check again about that's news it's true or false. Many gaming platform is still fixated with government regulations related to manner of payment because they do not want to get caught with illegal activities.
7854  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What to do with 1,5 BTC? on: May 24, 2016, 04:42:42 AM
This is my suggestion for you, You can grow it,many way to grow your bitcoin... like trading or etc. too foolish if you want to sell you bitcoin for now. if you can make some profit with your bitcoin,Why not?just only my suggest,but it's all have a different level risk can make you gain more experience and other.
7855  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin being used for illegal activities on: May 24, 2016, 04:19:21 AM
I think yes, but we never know it because their transaction is really secret. I think the illegal activites only for 1-5 transaction. it's make us hard to detect it.

As long as no one admits it that they are using bitcoin for their illegal activities, then we have no proof. Bitcoin transactions anonymity is the only thing we know that it could possibly be used in illegal activity.

 Everything that has a value can be used in illegal activity and bitcoin is one of those.
Sure, But anonymity of bitcoin make have much problem for bitcoin, example: some countires,merchant,online store need to think againt to accept bitcoin become one of their legal payment. but it's for some time ago. I think for now, example: "for Europian Union,In October 2015, the European Court of Justice ruled that bitcoin transactions are exempt from consumption tax similarly as traditional cash.According to judges, the tax shouldn’t be charged because bitcoins should be treated as a means of payment."

Source:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_bitcoin_by_country

Well, I think it's good progress for bitcoin. Yes you're right "Everything that has a value can be used in illegal activity and bitcoin is one of those", but.we must keep always positive thinking about it.
7856  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Steam accepting btc - will it affect the forum market? on: May 24, 2016, 12:27:47 AM
Steam is not accepting BTC at the moment.
They may be in future.
Well, I can assume steam is not accepting BTC. Because with unstable price steam will difficult to give a price on bitcoin form. Maybe, steam will monitor the further development of bitcoin. And what steps will be taken by steam.
7857  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Which country does NOT use Bitcoin? on: May 24, 2016, 12:13:16 AM
I was inspired by many topics, Do Arabs use Bitcoin, Can kids have bitcoin, How to motivate girl to have bitcoin etc, I think a real question unanswered until now would be

Which country does NOT use Bitcoin? And I am not talking about countries who have given a ban to Bitcoin, as I know Bitcoin cannot be truly banned. Should we say this country doesn't exist or you might have any ideas.

I think North Korea and Cuba are far from Bitcoin.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_bitcoin_by_country

You can see which country  does not use bitcoin, Many country have an various issue with bitcoin, but it's difficult to compare digital currency with real currency like dollar and etc. It's why many country can't to regulate bitcoin. Bitcoin opposite with their legal provisions. So, Need take more time a country can accept bitcoin or use bitcoin. Because a country must be able to regulate bitcoin in accordance with the provisions of their laws as legal payment.
7858  Other / Archival / Re: Do you use bitcoin as currency or investment? on: May 23, 2016, 02:12:29 AM
Do you use bitcoin as currency? Or you use bitcoin as investment? Or both?
I use bitcoin as currency and i never sell my bitcoin, but i prefer to use bitcoin when price is rising Grin

So, how about you?
Use bitcoin as currency?Yes.
Use bitcoin as investment?Yes.
I just want to take the advantages of all opportunities, With all usefulness of bitcoin, i can make bitcoin in accordance formed with the wishes.

But for investment in bitcoin have more level risk like scammer,ransome ware and etc.... I think,i liked to use bitcoin as currency....

Hi there,

I want to launch my own online shop which will accept bitcoin as payment but I can't decide what to sell   Smiley

Please post here what would you buy for bitcoins? Watches, video games, food ?

Thanks!


If you have more experience in online shop you can make online shop with more complicated level, but if you only newbies you can start with simple online shop can offer digital goods,gift card or etc. But it's all need you to analize the market for first. And you can think 'what the most sold in community'.
7860  Other / Off-topic / Re: How kids can "earn" Bitcoin ? on: May 23, 2016, 12:47:25 AM
My kid wants to make some money.

I never cared much of those easy systems but seems it would work for him.

I gave him 2 faucets but i ALSO remember there was servers/games where one could make Bitcoin [or altcoin] just for playing.

Would you remind ?

well gambling is good way to earn more bitcoin but i don't think that you should tell them about gambling, and faucets is very good bitcoin earning way is it is very easy

you can also let them watch short videos for bitcoins, or play simple games online that let's you get bitcoin just usually these ways give few cents for hard work, but it still gives you money

Gambling? No way! I think this isn't for kids under any circumstances and could be very dangerous. Besides I don't think that underage persons are alowed to gamble. I don't know how old are your kids if they are stil "kids" or maybe minros but earning money, especially online, where you can't control them may not be the smartest idea.
Sure, I think it's not good idea to choose gambling, but just my opinion you can searching more idea can mix education,experience and games will be make your kids more fun,and will gained experience and education.... One of them is
