Well as I see the future of bitcoin is for btc to become the mainstram. i want to one day go to my local grocery store, get what i need, stand at the chekout, scan my btc wallet and walk out. That's the future as I see it, the everyday use of btc.
what a good predict for the future of bitcoin, i hoping that one day bitcoin will accept as a payment method where people who uses bitcoin so that we do not need to exchange it into fiat because it more hassle and you can use your bitcoin whenever you go if you wanna drink coffe chill out on the bar and now here in my country where we use our bitcoin wallet to pay our monthly bills Smiley less hassle and where we can exchange or sell our coins into fiat and then they going to deposit it thru bank accounts

I think this is what the bitcoiners are hoping for in the future of bitcoin. Using it in our daily needs not affected by the changes or volatility in the market of bitcoin because the currency already in use is bitcoin and not fiat. Going to our favorite shop/store not worrying if they have change because we can pay exactly the price as to how much it is.The theft cannot steal your money immediately because its not in physical form.

Would u like it if Pokemon Go had Bitcoin implemented in it?

So u can go to some Pokespots and earn the Bitcoin?

Also trade some Pokkemons for some Bitcoin?

~CfA~

Definitely! I would love it because I'll not even notice that I'm earning because I love playing it. It's really a good thing someone came up with this kind of game wherein players will be force to walk and exercise because most of the people nowadays are just seating all day facing the computer. In this way, they will be able to meet other people too and it's good for the health.
1443  Economy / Economics / Re: Why have Bitcoin instead of cash? on: August 08, 2016, 10:26:23 AM
If someone wanted to save for the future and have spending issues like when he has cash he can't resist but spend it then he should consider converting some of his cash to bitcoin. In that way, since he can't buy everything with bitcoin then whenever he wanted to buy something and his money is just enough for the basic necessities then he can control his spending. If he is an impulsive buyer then he cannot buy immediately because of fund restrictions.
1444  Other / Off-topic / Re: What do you wish you could buy with btc ? on: August 08, 2016, 10:14:31 AM
I wish I could buy a land and house and lot if I could earn enough bitcoin. Since I don't have much bitcoin for now, I would use it in trading and save some for the future and when that time comes maybe 10 - 20 years from now, bitcoin is already popular and can be use as payment without the need to convert it to fiat.
1445  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why is Amazon.com still resisting the use of BTC for payment? on: August 08, 2016, 10:05:39 AM
Amazon is still resisting to use BTC as payment because it will be a big loss for them if they accept it and then its value plunge and then they have to pay in fiat. In order for them to accept BTC they should also pay BTC for the services so that changes on its equivalent value in fiat will not affect them.
1446  Other / Off-topic / Re: Bank or Bitcoin Wallet? on: August 08, 2016, 08:05:26 AM
I would still choose bank over bitcoin wallet because in the bank I know that money is secure and in case the bank lost my money like there's a bank robbery then I know that I can still claim my money because of the insurance unlike in bitcoin if my wallet will be hacked then it will be gone forever. I can't get it back. Besides bank is the one widely used nowadays and if I deposit my money there, I can help people who need money by having a loan in the bank.
1447  Other / Off-topic / Re: What to do with my signature campaign earnings ? on: August 08, 2016, 07:25:18 AM
Right now i am earning close to 0.01btc per weak with my signature campaign but i just dont know what to do with them.I want to grow them and reach a good amount of btc but only collecting will take a long time to reach a good amount.So i start to gamble with them and till now since 3-4 weaks i have lost all my signature campaing earnings.I win at the start but i become greedy and gamble more and then lost them.
So i decided not to gamble with them can any one tell me what are the other options which i can do with my earnings.

At first, I am winning in gambling too and I think about all the things I can buy with my profit and how fast I can earn it. I became greedy betting big amount so that I can earn big profit and I lose it all. I did experience what you experience so my suggestion is trading. If you study it and practice trading then later on you can reap your rewards. It may take a long time to earn your target profit but at least you are acting and slowly but surely you will get there.Just hold on and have patience always.
1448  Other / Archival / Re: Where you get Bitcoin ? on: August 08, 2016, 07:05:24 AM
I first got bitcoin from faucet and was amazed by the idea that I can get bitcoin for free but later on I realized that in order to have one bitcoin I need 100 million satoshis and it will took a long time to accumulate that amount with just faucet and I really wanted to have one bitcoin so I search about it and discovered that there are many ways to obtain it. My first option was to buy since I have an extra money and immediately invest it in a cloudmining site that later on become a scam. I was able to get half of the amount I invested and then I decided to trade the amount I was able to get back.
1449  Economy / Securities / Re: How much interest is reasonable for you? on: August 07, 2016, 07:35:26 AM
Maximum of 2% per month interest is reasonable for me because there's a chance that they can return my investment with the state of business that they have and they already have a track record that they can earn that much with the time stipulated. Even the banks has an interest of 2% annually. If there's something not right like there are others who already have problems with them before then that's a red alert.
1450  Economy / Securities / Re: Invest in gambling site (what you think) on: August 07, 2016, 07:22:16 AM
This is a good idea because it would be a good passive income if the gambling site is earning well. You just have to research about the site if it's really profitable . I think the reason there's so many gambling sites out there is because they are earning from it and there are many gamblers also who are willing to bet in the site to gain but most of the time they lose because of greediness and it would be on your advantage if the gamblers lose because you earn. Of course there is always risk that your money will be stolen if you invest but how can you earn if you don't take the risk.
1451  Economy / Securities / Re: Pig Farm Investment. on: August 07, 2016, 07:08:39 AM
I also have a plan to invest in farming when I earn enough bitcoin to finance it. The bread and butter of most of my relatives is farming so I'm interested with it also. I would have invested in this if I have extra bitcoin but then I don't have enough yet so good luck in your investment. I hope you earn from it so you can help more people.
1452  Economy / Securities / Re: Where should I invest after the halving?! on: August 07, 2016, 06:54:08 AM
after halving only secure investment is to hold tight ,stay away from gambling - trading .

if i will just hold tight my bitcoins then i can't call it investing. it's safekeeping Cheesy and may i know the reason why I should stay away from trading and investing? I'm earning a decent amount of bitcoins from them.
In my experience I also earn a enough in trading why don't try trading to earn more? And try other things to earn decent amount for it not only bitcoin it self.

Trading is the option for me also to earn profit if you just study the market movement of the coin you are investing in. Especially if you have big capital then just a little movement of the pair will gain some profit if you are conservative and close your position immediately after gaining profit because you are afraid that it might go the wrong way and lose what you gained. If you are risk-taker then you can wait for a higher price to take big profit if it goes your way. You just need to have patience for the target price to be hit.
1453  Other / Off-topic / Re: Does sending Bitcoins feel good? on: August 07, 2016, 06:41:08 AM
It feels good knowing that I am involved in the evolution of technology. It feels good that I got to send some funds to others without the need to go to money exchange wherein I have to queue and wait for my turn that may take some time and when I send bitcoin I can do it anytime and anywhere and with a minimal fee compared to money exchange that I got to pay higher. It feels good to be "in" in a currency that might be the currency of the future.
1454  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: NEver keep all your coins on an exchange on: August 07, 2016, 06:29:53 AM
It's the same as the saying goes "Never put your eggs in one basket". With what is happening recently exchanges being hacked, it's not safe to put your coins in just one exchange. It's better to spread you coins in different exchanges and wallets so that in case something bad happened to one of them. You still have spare funds to recover what you have lost and it's better to spread the risk.
1455  Economy / Economics / Re: Why the banks dont give free money? Why they loan it? on: August 06, 2016, 07:01:32 PM
They don't give money because banks are not charitable institutions, they are having a business. The money that the people deposit have interest of around for example 1% annually and then they lend it to people for an interest of 10% so the difference of 9% are their earnings. That is why they are eager to loan the money but making sure that the borrower will be able to pay them by having collateral.
1456  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you have bitcoin AND debt? on: August 06, 2016, 06:53:13 PM
I have debt to my relatives because I wanted to invest in something but then it failed. I was so positive that the investment will prosper but then it failed and I have no choice but to pay it back in some way. I believed that I can pay it back with a combination of fiat and bitcoin when its value will rise.
1457  Economy / Economics / Re: Spending Bitcoins on: August 06, 2016, 06:43:42 PM
Yes, I agree with you that we must inculcate the habit of spending if we are really well wishers of bitcoin. I recently tried to chalk out the areas of expenditure where I can spend or use bitcoins in order to set off. I figured out that I can only top up my mobile phone using bitcoin as there are no other merchants or sellers accepting bitcoin in my area of residence. I have to convert it in fiat currency and then only I am able to spend it, but that’s not the real way we want it to be actually used. I am sure we will soon have option to spend in bitcoins without converting it in fiat.

Sadly this is true in most cases where only a few option for Bitcoin to be spend in one country.  I also want to spend my Bitcoin directly to buy something that does not include converting it to fiat then buy the item i needed.  Hopefully there will be more merchant that accept BTC in my country soon.

Bitcoin is not yet that famous so it can only be used to certain things currently. Most of the things that can be bought are digital goods but only on limited sites or people offering bitcoin as payment option. We are waiting for that time when there's no need for us to convert to fiat to buy the basic needs like food,clothing etc..
1458  Other / Off-topic / Re: What do you do with your btc? on: August 06, 2016, 06:17:16 PM
I trade, I gamble sometimes but I make sure that when my target profit or lose is hit then I will stop. I sometimes invest in HYIPs before but now I stop already because I already lose too much from them. I send money to family and friends using bitcoin.
1459  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you still believe in bitcoin on: August 06, 2016, 06:10:50 PM
i agree with you our believe in bitcoin is very important if we will believe in bitcoin and invest our money in bitcoin and hold our bitcoin until increase its price to more higher .
Although believed it was necessary but I trust alone could not have made us successful in bitcoin investments. I think better if we use the analyzes to determine how the movement will bitcoin itself. I also believe with bitcoin, but do not forget the risks of investing Smiley thanks

The belief of its users will give strength and courage to bitcoin to stand infront of the world as a complete and widely-used currency and with that happening it would get adopted by many resources that will take it to the sky in terms of value and popularity as well.

Bitcoin will be more popular in future and it will also touch the moon as we will see many new companies and investors getting into it which will take price to higher level.

Although the bitcoin price is still not yet stable because of big fluctuations cause by hacking, I still believe that its value will go up in the future and its really a potential investment to put your money. Fiat currency is losing its value so people will find its way to sustain their way of living which I think bitcoin will be one of  the ways.
1460  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will you accept bitcoin as your salary? on: August 06, 2016, 10:08:51 AM
EZ. We dont have so many optins. i take bitcoin. Easier to use than Western Union.
Lol I think we do not discuss to ease compared with Western union. because you still have the option to earn a salary of fiat? the choice is is it you chose to get a salary of bitcoin or of fiat? to ease spending problem. of course people would prefer to receive a salary with fiat right ?
But regarding to the topic it is really risky to accept your salary as bitcoin for sure.
It's correct caused by the appearing of big cases in the big exchange site and make the value of bitcoin in this time is unstable and more prefer to reject bitcoin as salary and the chance of risk is increase too.

Plus your salary will be used for your necessities so you will be using it also after you got your salary and the risk that it might go down is high. Your groceries will be lessen also due to its fall. I would rather take the cash.

Bitcoin is still unstable for now like last week its value is $650+ and now its $550+ so better be safe than sorry. I will not accept bitcoin salary yet because of its big fluctuations and what if I already have a budget for my salary and the price suddenly change so I will adjust again my budget and there's a possibility that it will not cover all my expenses because of the price drop.
