141  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why are so many people against bitcoin? on: December 02, 2017, 09:40:10 PM
Who really are against Bitcoin? I mean there are some large bankers I just watched ina  video who are not necessarily in favor of Bitcoin. That is obvious. Bitcoin presents a major threat to the banking industry and they do not like that.

Aside from that I don't know where you are coming up with all of these people who are "against" Bitcoin. Sources?
142  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinbase. REDUCE YOUR FEES !!! on: December 02, 2017, 09:36:29 PM
You can't just get fees reduced by asking Coinbase. The problem is Coinbase is centralized and can do whatever they want. And they must charge large fees on the basis that they want their transactions pushed through asap whereas it would be better for everyone if we just kept fees lower. Unfortunately most people are greedy and only don't want to wait.
143  Economy / Economics / Re: The future of the paper money on: December 01, 2017, 10:29:22 PM
Paper money will soon be eliminated from developed countries.

That is, unless developing countries decide to take a flyer on Bitcoin and test the waters so to speak. If it ends up working for them they could become one of the richest countries in the world, and consequently more powerful as well.
144  Economy / Economics / Re: One Bitcoin, $10,000. Ten Thousand Dollars. on: December 01, 2017, 10:21:55 PM
WRONG. One Bitcoin just went up to over $11,000. Cheesy

I think we will soon see a crash because everyone is talking about a crash and the market does not want the price to go up much higher right now.
145  Economy / Economics / Re: What is your best investment strategy? on: December 01, 2017, 10:18:39 PM
The best investment strategy for crypto is BUY AND HODL.

You cannot beat the market. Sorry, it is true. You can't just time the market and get free money. Everyone else is trying to do that same thing and guess what? Most people end up losing money, just like in real life also.
146  Economy / Economics / Re: Will bitcoin change the distribution of wealth in the world? on: December 01, 2017, 09:47:41 PM
Will Bitcoin change the distribution of wealth of the world? This is obvious! Bitcoin is already making so many people multi millionaires, just like winning the lottery, without doing any work.

It will only continue further as BTC become more famous worldwide and the price goes up and up every year. Eventually it will be worth over $1,000,000 (one million dollars) most certainly!
147  Economy / Economics / Re: Why people scam on: December 01, 2017, 09:39:34 PM
People don't realize that scamming has no place in life and a free, happy and peaceful world. They think scamming others will make them happier. Most likely they think the world owes them something, for some reason. The world owes you nothing. Doing shady scamming behavior does not get you ahead in life, but only the opposite. I wish more people understood this.
148  Economy / Economics / Re: Where can i invest my money? on: December 01, 2017, 09:35:11 PM
I would suggest investing your money in a variety of high profile cryptos such as Bitcoin (BTC), Litecoin (LTC), Antshares (NEO), DASH, or Monero.

Why these ones?

Because these coins offer superior technology than most if not all others on the market today. Monero for example offers 100% anonymity compared to other coins that are only pseudo-anonymous. Why not invest in it then? It only makes sense. Tongue
149  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think bitcoin gold value will rise to bitcoin value on: December 01, 2017, 09:33:30 PM
NO WAY

This is the easiest post I have ever done or will ever do on this forum, at least I think so lol.

Bitcoin Gold is rumored to be an outright scam and stealing people's private keys where they then will go and take your Bitcoin from them if you haven't already moved it to a different address before that.
150  Economy / Economics / Re: Alt coin price manipulation is much easier than with BTC on: December 01, 2017, 09:20:11 PM
Back in 2014 I was actually quite poor, but I did manage to get my hands on some funds (under $10,000 still), but it was enough to manipulate a lot of altcoin markets where there was barely any action. I tried to organize a pump and dump, but it didn't really work that well and I lost money. It was a lesson learned, but it was also quite fun. heheeh
151  Economy / Services / Re: Atriz's Campaign Managment Services [AVAILABLE] on: November 27, 2017, 08:32:15 AM
Didn't escrow Confido funds and all signature campaign members were scammed out of our time in posting when the ICO opened at $1 and the devs are nowhere to be found and apparently aTriz "is trying to contact them" well we lost our money and it is all aTriz's fault.
If you truly think that it is "all" his fault, then you truly are a butthurt baboon.

Every single campaign, where funds are not fully escrowed by the manager or an escrow is risky[1]. Knowingly applying to such a campaign implies that the user has read the campaign description, is aware of the-, and accepts the- risk. In case that the user failed to read the campaign description, then it is only the users fault.
[1] This does not guarantee 100% safety either.

Why is it good aTriz doesn't escrow funds according to you?

Apparently, you did not get Lauda perfectly well. Last time I checked, not all campaigns are escrowed by the managers and they always make sure that whoever is applying understands that before doing so.
I was part of the Confido's campaign, and at the beginning, it was clearly stated by aTriz that none of the funds are being escrowed by him, so it is more like anyone joining is obviously joining at his/her own risk. So, if you want to blame aTriz for Confido's scam, you should as well blame yourself for joining in the first place since you knew it wasn't escrowed and no one was forced to join.

This is not true. They were supposed to get paid if Confido did raise $50,000. Well, their ICO came and raised over $300,000. You could even see there token what is was worth in the ICO launch, over $1 value. aTriz is responsible because he is the manage of the campaign who promised they would get payment if over $50,000 got raised, but they never got payment though $300,000+ is raised. Smiley
152  Economy / Speculation / Re: If you still think BTC will never reach $50,000 ... on: November 26, 2017, 10:35:05 PM
I support bitcoin and ecurrency and the great tech behind it.

BUT I don’t emotionally invest. A correction/crash will happen. Look at the charts and it’s past movement. Institutional (Wall Street) money will only enter on a large dip, and bitcoin needs that to mature into the next phase. As more institutional money comes in, TA analysis will start playing a greater role, because those guys trade on chart movements in herds. Which creates more predictable price movement patterns.

Obviously no one can say for sure, but imo there is a high probability that it’ll have a steep correction soon.
I’d buy then. Then have patience to climb to $10k, $15k+ IF some scalability issues are fixed in the meantime.



I always have to laugh when someone says we are not in a bubble. That is hilarious to me because if you look at the chart (as you say) it is quite clear we are not only in a bubble, but it is a MASSIVE bubble. The price rose from $1,000 to $9,000 this year for crying out loud!
153  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What were your experiences with Bitcoin when you first started? on: November 26, 2017, 10:29:16 PM
MY first experience with Bitcoin is I understood essentially what it was from the beginning, however, I did not know how to buy it at the time. There was only MT.Gox and LocalBitcoins and I was confused about what a wallet was and how BTC worked in general.
154  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: this is what will Kill bitcoin. on: November 26, 2017, 10:26:58 PM
Sorry buy I am not even going to read your post. The fact that you are claiming Bitcoin will be killed and die automatically shows me you don't know what you are talking about. LOL
155  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: can bitcoin wallet be hacked by hackers? on: November 26, 2017, 10:24:09 PM
This is a no-brainer. Bitcoin wallets are hacked on a daily basis and it is why we need to seriously be careful about the security of our devices and general security of how out Bitcoin is stored.
156  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 'Fraud,' or the Future of Finance? on: November 26, 2017, 10:23:04 PM
It is not a fraud mate, it is only speculation, they all knew that bitcoin is going to be the new revolution of money, and we all agree with that.

But it is not going to replace fiat, no matter what, and that is the main reason of why all those banks and governments, and of course, all those ceo's from different companies are now supporting bitcoin, because they want more money, and of course, more power.

And yes, the price is going to be much more higher than now, it is just matter of time until we can see another big bull trend on the market (wow, we are into one right now) but lets just wait. i dont think that all this thing from the CME is dangerous.


"[Bitcoin] is not going to replace fiat no matter what"

Sorry mate, I would have to strongly disagree with you on this one. BTC is going to replace fiat and already is. Let me repeat, BTC already is replacing fiat. See below for an explanation.

Do you know how may people already bought BTC using fiat money? People are exchanging fiat for Bitcoin right now like never before and it will only get more and more popular every day that goes by.
157  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Some new forks coming up for bitcoin??? on: November 26, 2017, 10:21:16 PM
Yeah there are always new forks coming along every month now. People trying to pump and dump off the name of Bitcoin. The most recent one is called "Bitcoin Diamond". I wonder how long it will last. lol
158  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin expensive to use on: November 26, 2017, 10:20:29 PM
Bitcoin was always very, very cheap and fast to use and confirm. It never used to be this way. It used to only take a few seconds to see your transaction appear on the blockchain and have it confirmed. And there was no need to send a fee even - you could send a transaction with 0 fees and it would get approved quickly. However, unfortunately this is changing. Every day that goes by the network is more and more congested and fees are going up. It sucks. :-? Oh well! Hope this is a solution soon.
159  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 1000 hard forks in 2018 on: November 26, 2017, 10:18:38 PM

Seriously. What is wrong with hard forks? It is free and if you don't like it then don't claim or simply dump it. When a hard forked coin does nothing and cannot present developments and solid platform then it will cease to exist. Not a problem actually.
I know you're aware that hard fork, which is a change of base code cannot be without problems! Aside from the risk of successful transition and implementation, there's reduction in the capitalization of the original version and the community also gets divided thus weakening its support, the backbone for any coin. Taking the case of Bitcoin, the hard forks were attempts to hijack the Bitcoin brand name, because of its economic status and Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold and Segwit2x are just 3 ways of saying one and same thing!

I don't think that Bitcoin Cash was an attempt to hijack Bitcoin and here is why...

To hijack Bitcoin would be to use the same name as Bitcoin, not create a new brand and call it something else and then try to claim that it is the real Bitcoin, this makes no sense and I don't understand why they think people will believe it is the real Bitcoin when it has a different name. hahaha
160  Economy / Speculation / Re: why this pump ?? on: November 26, 2017, 10:15:07 PM
I think Thanksgiving played a huge part. Seriously. People who hadn't seen their relatives for a long time got together at the dinner table, and inevitably, if one of the family members was into bitcoin, the discussion eventually moved in that direction. People got interested in bitcoin, wanted in, which led to an increase in demand and therefore the price. Even if it might not be entirely responsible for the surge alone, I'm fairly convinced that Thanksgiving dinners were very important.

Honestly, this never crossed my mind but I think you are right. I think Thanksgiving and Christmas this year are going to contribute massively to Bitcoin value increasing. However, with that said then most likely in January we will see a huge crash. Think about it... a bunch of people all over the world will get BTC for their presents and then want to sell them to get money because they don't care about it and just want to buy stuff with it, and this big worldwide global dump is going to crash the markets.
