601  Economy / Economics / Re: How bitcoin can be useful in developing nations like the African continent. on: June 02, 2017, 02:15:14 PM
Bitcoin's potential for success in Africa is widely recognized in the industry
And able to Change the way we send money to the continent and provide easy access to not having a bank account for money quickly and freely
Which is an alternative currency to anyone but especially useful land and unstable national currency and can reduce the cost of cross-border trade

Is it really bitcoin or are they having a project for there own crypto currency?. Cause what i heard is that some countries are trying to adapt the concept of btc to have there own crypto for it to be circulated either in there own currency or just mine the btc. Because i can is that it is better to make your own btc so you can have your own gold to mine when ever all money are now invested in the web. At least a country wont be left behing with it's own currency.
602  Economy / Speculation / Re: What we are experiencing right now is the norm on: June 02, 2017, 01:25:53 PM
Usually, at this time of year, we experience a quiet time (of summer). I was checking Bitcoin price charts and I have noticed that Bitcoin price calms down (nearly stable, just the normal fluctuations) before the end of may, and starts rising again in the mid of June, and dumps again in the mid of July, stays calm for a while, then start rising again at the beginning of September.

So I think buying Bitcoin at the best price would be either now or in July.

No you are wrong. It's not nearly stable just because the price was slow down. Also you can't based the past events on how bitcoin price will behaves to the current day.

What if the price goes on a rampage again by July? The best price to buy bitcoins is not the point here but the ability of a person to take the risk. Since we all don't know what will happen to bitcoin price in the past days, we can't have a good speculation of the exact date when will be the best time to buy. If you believe that bitcoin price will increase more in the following months then just do the buying and face all the risks.

In my experience in btc, i would agree that most of the prices are increasing during summer times. It increases and it reaches a certain stability. Next year maybe the same cycle would be observed but im sure that the price will also during the next summer. It is norm because it has ascended to its original price the advertisement it is experiencing now is ore popular than that of last year. So i hope btc and also other coins especially can increase price so at least there is something worth to be waiting.

Finally, around 14 hours remaining for the most waited BB game of the year, and maybe the best fit teams together. I guess there are no surprises for the teams playing together.
Anyway game 1 should pretty much decide the whole series direction IMO, whether GSW will rollover Cavs or vice-versa.

No.. There will be more surprises to come within this match up. Both teams are eager to get the title for this year and who knows, miracles can happen anytime. Both roster of each teams are competent and there's no doubt that they can be champions for this year's season. No regret, any of them is worthy to be the champ.

yeah it seems forever to wait for the finals to start and a lot are eager to watch game 1. I think there won't be any blowout tis game 1 and possibly we're going to go down the wire most of the series as bith teams are evenly matched. looking good on paper and hopefully it ends up to be classic like last year

Well the first game of this finals ended up too bad for Cavs. And congratulations to the whole Dub nation for winning this first game but still it is not the end of this series, this is just a state and for sure there will be some gut feeling about Cavs that they will do some strategies for the next game. It's always been exciting.

As i a cavs fan, Lebron has his performance downgraded when  he was tripped trying to guard kd. I've got no excuse why they lost but that Lebron was dumbfounded. And i doubt there can be any 1-3 comeback these time. Because if they would lose in game 2?. Homecourt aint gonna save them. So i hope they can at least find there pace in game 2 so that they can really defeat the warriors and preventing KD and the warriors an era of a super team.
604  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: When is the next Ethereum scam going to be? on: June 02, 2017, 12:09:03 PM
Too much haters about ETH... but ETH survive and go the moon, that's the fact.

With the news announcements coming, ETH going strongly and better in the future.

Detractors you can tell shit about ETH but ETH will not die, cya in next weeks or months with the next level

Yeah why so much hate?. Regardless of it's price, it is one of the old and probably most successful alt coin out there. I don't think they would waste years of planning and producting just for 1 time of scamming people. They sure can get rich but what about the next day and the next? It is better to improve and upgrade there project for longer productivity and it is the next most popular in the market. Seeing it has a fast and high increase rate, i would better invest than just give up on eth.
605  Economy / Speculation / Re: Should bitcoin price in the system will stabilize at a current rate? on: June 01, 2017, 06:19:40 AM
no it is not going to happen any time soon. and no businesses don't need to worry about price fluctuations.

it won't be stable because it is till growing, with increase in adoption the price will continue to rise up. and we have a lot of good news coming our way with the number 1 Forex broker in the world adding bitcoin platform the price will start on a new rally.

and the merchants are mostly converting the bitcoin they receive to fiat as fast as they can in most cases so they don't get affected by the fluctuations.

I agree but also there are times that the rate can be still at a certain long period or time. its been a year that the price of pounds only increased at 10 pounds and its been at that gap that the price was almost stagnant. The same may happen to bit coin and if the reaches a certain time where it has stabilized its price? then it means that btc is now accepted in all levels of society.
606  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What to do with the people who don't like Bitcoin? on: June 01, 2017, 05:08:37 AM
What would you do when you're talking to someone but then he suddenly talks about his hatred on Bitcoin, what would you react to it?

I've never actually experienced anything like this before, I just want to be prepared when it happened to me.
I really don't know why some people don;t like btc its basically telling them here free money u just have to mine it or buy it and it will increase '100%' how can u say no to that and give back questions when u don't know shit about still can;t believe those people exist  Angry Angry

Maybe some people actually don't trust the world wide web. Because most if the movies would show that hacking is very easy and you can extract any information with it how about more when it comes to money? I think it is not our lose if they are not enticed with btc. If they cant seem to appreciate then lets leave at is. It hard to convince people if they already have a principle that a certain thing is bad because simply they don't know what is it.
607  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum is getting bigger and better each and everyday on: May 31, 2017, 03:56:02 PM
I think the most important thing about any currency or tradable good is its utility.   Already ethereum has potentially more utility than bitcoin because of its speed and the smart contracts.  Already we are seeing all kinds of assets represented by Ethereum tokens,  And Ethereum is currently much faster than bitcoin.
The bitcoin brand is great, but that's like saying tcp/ip is a great brand for the internet.    No body cares about how it works (outside of the cryptoworld), they just care that it works and they want it fast.  

Yes and i was actually surprised on how its price increased. Also it is nearing btc in the market cap. Damn i think the fact that vitalyk's face was already revealed  made even the eth famous because of how young he is and obviously investors would think in the long run eth has more future. I think we can technically he is the richest cryptocurrency holder because them he is now worth millions of dollars.
608  Other / Off-topic / Re: What's your way of spreading Bitcoin knowledge? on: May 31, 2017, 03:27:01 PM
Just as you say by hanging out somewhere in a relax discussion and drinking coffee and then giving directions about the basic meaning of bitcoin so that friends understand it, If everything already knows about the basic meaning of bitcoin then we are talking about how to get bitcoin.
After all know how to get bitcoin then I show bitcoin wallet that I use to my friends so that they can better understand how to withdraw fund from bitcoin to real currency.
After everything has been done and can be understood by my friends then I prove from my bitcoin revenue results by paying coffee drunk by my friends.
With that they can be sure about digital money can be made into real money. Grin

Yap most of my friends also are hard workers and mostly in my fb posts are pictures of facing the laptop or having a drink. They sensed that i am working on the internet and they though it was a online tutor. I just said no always to there questions. Then one commented something like how are you having so much relax time seating if food chains? How much do you earn? That for me is the most satisfying way to let them really acknowledge btc as to you can work on your own time and no hassles unless offcourse you still are not aware in btc deals.
609  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: That day when Bitcoin hits $50,000.- on: May 31, 2017, 01:11:31 PM
That day when bitcoin hits 50,000, and this topic wil be replied and honored by the new folks whom are new to Bitcoin by then, the day when multiple countries have the coin in use in shops and services, the day when you get paid 0.05 BTC a month for a fulltime job, what will you do with your precious coins? when this appears on your screen...

$50,023(+0.12%)
1 BTC

Will you hold them with the knowledge of becoming a millionaire, or a multi-multi millionaire? Or wil you find it enough and trade some or most of your precious, precious coins for money to buy something really big, or use it to start up your own big company?

For me, I will keep them. I might only sell a tiny bit if I would like to make a purchase of something, but for the rest I would keep all the coins knowing that 50,000.- is just the start of a new beginning (just like 2017's 2700 compared to 2014's 200.- already)

I am curious what you will do that day, when this post gets replied and all those people wish they started in the time that we did. The day when you, me and all other Bitcoin buyers basically have won the lottery, what will you do?
Well, if that happens many of the bitcoin holders will become rich because of bitcoin.
That is a big amount actually I wish it could be happen, but I think it will take a years before that happen.

i honestly can see that btc can grow but in time it may have spread to many chains and more and more altcoin are now more famous than actually it's pioneer. Ethereum is increasing in a very fast pace. And it is always changing from time to time. Many investors in ethereum are now taking advantage of this pump and btc is just a normal coin with only the most coin in the web.
610  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Should You be Concerned About a Bitcoin Chain Split on August 1st? on: May 31, 2017, 06:52:00 AM
Uhmm i Don't really understand it but if that would happen will it have a new name or it would still remain. How do we identify the other coin from one another?. Also would the price of each of them be the same? I came across some reading last month i think and i dont really have it but is this the same as halving? where they would split the coins because of the issue of payments and delays?
611  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BitCoin 20 Years From Now on: May 30, 2017, 09:52:02 AM
Were all going to be millionares 20 years from now! lol... Bitcoins potential still yet to come as many great things happening now with bitcoin. Airlines from Japan (peach) accepts btc, i heard like 5000 units of btM's will be released etc. We have a bright future with bitcoin.

Maybe in that future people are not having transactions in the web. No physical attachment when dealing trades. Bitcoin and the other coins now dominated the monitary value in the world and physical wealth maybe deemed worthless. Many people are now rich that probably that most of the wealth now belongs to crypto creators and the workers work in there own homes.
612  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH will go down or up? on: May 30, 2017, 09:27:52 AM
I'm more than ever confident that ETH will overtake BTC. I would not be surprised at all to see 500$ in the near future (in less than a year). Look at it now, it seems to be touching 200$ again.

Yes, I am more confident on it because it cannot overtake the value of bitcoin because right many countries are legalizing bitcoin as one of their payment optional but there is a chance that ETH will be the second one after the bitcoin.

I doubt that. Eth at this moment is also having it's pump. And in the near present it will decrease but now its lowest and stagnant price will be i think 100$. Eth and btc in general are just the same but it is just that btc is the one known to the whole world and its price is unbelievable if were gonna think of it. Eth can be known by its work and probably not as the second bitcoin.
613  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Are Chinese exchanges still significant? on: May 30, 2017, 01:15:28 AM
no people are silent because you haven't checked the Chinese exchanges before making this topic. if you do check them you will see that the biggest ones only have bitcoin and litecoin listed. they don't even have any altcoin for trading apart from their small exchanges!

and also Chinese have always been significant but not the way it was advertised. people imagined they have full control over everything and if they wish they could kill bitcoin in an instant and if they wished they could pump it to 10 million dollar!

but in reality, Chinese market has always been a big market because of the large population of China and the fact that many of them are into trading. but they are just one market in the whole world.
do then have an effect? of course they do.
is it as big as people thing? not at all.

the big 3 only having BTC and LTC:
here is Huobi: https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/huobi/
OkCoin: https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/okcoin-cn/
BTCC: https://coinmarketcap.com/exchanges/btcc/

I agree with you that the effect of the Chinese market is not as big as people think. I speculate it is that market that has been doing all the dumping all along. Observe the difference of having them included versus having them isolated by the Chinese central bank. There has been no dumps now unlike before.

Is bitcoin trading better without the Chinese exchanges?


I am actually confused cause i really saw a post where it is creating or generating it's own digirtal currency?. Maybe they are doing that so that the people can recognize there own digital currency and avoid any foreign investments in there country. Because if they really allow alien currency in there country then there economy would be pulled down and china wants to maintain there status as one of the powerful countries in the world.
614  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Which is the best way to promote products or links? on: May 30, 2017, 12:44:02 AM
You will need people for that. Not in the spammy, robotic way, but people with actual friends. First of all, you could them personally that your products or links are worth their attention and once you get their attention, ask them whether they could mention your products or links if they feel like in their conversations. For extra motivation, you could offer a referral bonus.

Every marketing needs people, from ordinary promoters to directors that organize everything. If you plan to make money,they it's ridiculous to ask favors, pay for everything, more money you give for advertising more people will hear about it and employees will work harder.
Referral bonuses, discount on products, percent from sale, for extra motivation you can do so many things, and mostly they are working, I think motivated people work harder and better.

And off course put your ads in a place where people would really need it. Even if you are promoting variety of products, try promoting a certain product on a higher level on the place you want to promote it. Example is that you can't promote a phone in a place where people are not socially focused. You cant promote a fashion in a place where fashion is still cultural. Also you can't promote somethin with no trusted establishment or person in that matter.
615  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 7 years ago... you could have earned almost $15,000 at today's value in 3 sec... on: May 30, 2017, 12:18:48 AM
This kind of moments is one of a lifetime, remembering 5 years ago where everything is just laughing on cryptocurrencies saying that it is a bluff and only few believes in it and that's me 3 years ago. I know I regret it when I just set side the opportunity on earning and buying BTC, but still the past is past, what we are telling right now ( like pizza, or free BTC ) is just a little reminiscing of the past. I think it's just a reward to people who are early believers, that take a leap of faith first before knowing the consequences and now they are somehow rich ( unless they are a gambler or not good in handling money ). They believe in it even tho they never know what is bitcoin's future. They make the best of every opportunities and time given to them (but buying a 10k Bitcoin pizza is another story ,haha).

“It's being here now that's important. There's no past and there's no future. Time is a very misleading thing. All there is ever, is the now. We can gain experience from the past, but we can't relive it; and we can hope for the future, but we don't know if there is one.”
― George Harrison


I was one of the guys actually did not laugh at it but gave no regards to cryptocurrency during the 2015  because that was the time bts was introduced to me by a friend.  I still remember the price at 600$ and not caring about it. I deemed it as a waste of time and money because you need that kind of money just for 1btc. But during those days I only made about .1 during those years because i was still studying and i am so bored with it. So i guess i am not the only guy here who really regretted those past decision huh.
616  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin up altcoin dump on: May 29, 2017, 11:19:05 AM
When the btc price goes up, what is now a good time to buy altcoin or sell bitcoin? Huh
If bitcoin price value goes up, then majority of the altcoins are dropping the price it is a good to buy altcoin, then hold bitcoin if you have balance on it.
Agree mate, because the value of altcoin are depending on the value of bitcoin. That is why more investor are waiting for the big dump of bitcoin because that is the best time to sell their hold altcoin. That is one of the strategy of the traders.

Yap and i noticed it also time for altcoins to make there own pump but i dont guarantee investing in some random altcoins. Best still to read there whitepaper or the project ann. Thread. Other coins also do this twice a year and it has no connectiong with the btc's pump and dump. There are other coins that has there own projections and does not perform like other coins.
617  Economy / Economics / Re: why is it so hard to buy bitcoin on: May 29, 2017, 11:00:29 AM
It was hard to buy Bitcoin due to high price of Bitcoin in the market, some small people can't afford the amount of Bitcoin. However, they try to have an income by using of signature campaign and other sources. Because they cannot buy Bitcoin due to unbalanced value of it in the market.

Even if the price of bitcoin is already high but it does not mean that it is hard to buy bitcoin. If you are low on cash then just buy what your money can afford sooner or later the value of the bitcoin you bought will also increase in value. If you failed to buy now then you will miss this opportunity to profit at this point of time. Bitcoin is not hard to buy if you are willing to buy it.

Its pretty hard to buy if your budget is limited not all people can afford to buy those price listed on exchange and thats why theirs so many people are relying on free incomes genared ways like he listed on top. Then how could they failed if they can't afford to do so? Maybe staking their income on signature payments will be good since we can earn some profits if the priced of bitcoin will rise up for more.

Some it is the price but i would rather base it on the pump and dump events. It is quite easy to buy coins as long as offcourse you have a budget but profiting from it is whats more important. Knowing which coin to buy and when to buy it is what's more important. Btc at its current price is really expensive but you can always buy bits of it just for safe investment. We can not always rely on buying just btc but we rather we also need to support ICO's of there tokens or coins.
618  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: lets see how many of you are buying this time? on: May 29, 2017, 10:13:08 AM
Waiting 1000$ BTC,I will buy

You can wait for these dump, but I don't think that it will be happening. The price is just going back and forth to the price of $2000, that is why I don't think that it will be dumping it's price lower than that.
I also think the possibility of bitcoin prices going down to $1000 will be difficult, I bought it yesterday in $2100 and I still keep it, I really didn't think bitcoin will dump far away and a lot of panic and sell it.

I assume 2k now is its lowest price starting to this date. But also the next pump might be in the next 3 or 4 months. Because right now there are other exchange site that is currently maintaining or even collecting whatever was left during the pump. Eth and btc are currently on the same state at there price increase. There are other coins that is still increasing at most at 2% percent i think we need to keep an eye on those coins.
619  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The end of Pumping Season... on: May 29, 2017, 07:17:27 AM
This is just part of the business to give thrill to the investors and members. At least everyone profited during the pumping. And also birth of other ICO's. There have been a lot projects lately and i can say that most of them are on a good track. Btc now is famous for its increase it just a month. Surely many people will be interested in investing to btc once again after that price increase.
620  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Is Signature Campaign effective for your business ? on: May 29, 2017, 02:59:02 AM
I wonder if the post quality does really play any role for the marketing effects of signature campaign? It's prety obvious, that it reduces spam and helps avoiding campaign abuse, but banner is still there and it's visible regardless post content.

It's the normal requirement of each campaign as they find it effective to see those people that are posting with quality. And besides it's up to them if they will use signature campaign for advertising and it's even cheaper for advertising to have a lot of participants that will spread the visibility throughout the forum but well yes banner gives more visibility.

I think there are many signature campaigns so that miners can have some validity to mine. This is the reason why it is existing. They dont just spend money for members but rather they are distributing something to be mined. It is not just to pay everyone needlessly and let me give you this comparison. Animals in the farm are well feed and well taken care of even spending budget for them but they don't know they are the real  instrument for the owner to profit.
