If the world uses a single currency, will the economy be more stable?
This is a very interesting question. The sovereign nations issue their own currencies and are taken for granted by many people, but few consider whether this is the economically optimal option.


If the world will be using a single currency, I think market transactions would be easier. It would help international tradings better as it has. However, it will still be impossible fowr now because a single currency would be really hard for other countries to imply. It might also have negative effects in the society.

I want to talk about salaries. How much $ do you have left after paying taxes, rent, and basic expenses (electricity, water)
I get $10 000/y like a fucking slave
My spending basic is $5 000 / year, including food, $2 500 without food
I live in the former SSSR
Another reason to move away

Also they give me these communistic so called "benefits" when you get like prepaid cards for predefined services

I only have money enough to sustain my needs for three months but I spent it for just less than a month. Leaving your job without an extra income would be so hard specially of your earnings has it's limit. Our expences are unlimited. Better be sure to have a job ready to support your needs before quitting your current job.

Somebody Say if we commit sin we will be also belong to the the Wrath of GOD and we will not be having eternal Life?


Sin is what we commit that is against the will of God. It is a mistake commited by us that hurts God who loves us unconditionally. However, despite of what we did, asking for forgiveness is the things that we could do to please him. The Lord hates sin but not the sinners. God wanted us to learn from our mistakes and repent for doing it.
784  Economy / Economics / Re: Are you thinking about the future? on: February 23, 2018, 02:51:16 PM
Have you ever thought about buying bitcoin for your children as a future investment?



Yes ofcourse! I'm a kind of parent that will always think of my children's future. If I could just buy much bitcoin as many as I can and as early as I could, I would do it right away just to assure the future of my kids. I believe that bitcoin has all the potentials to be successful in the future so I would want to strive with it too. That's why I'm trying to teach my kids little by little about bitcoin these days.
785  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin help out of school youth... on: February 23, 2018, 12:58:49 PM
Do you think Bitcoin can help out of school youth to finish their studies or not?
For me in some other way yes it will help . It will help young people to gain insight on how to earn money and how to value the money they earn. But it may also be the reason to them for not continuing their studies because they earn already a lot of money on bitcoin..



Yes, in some ways it can really help out of school youth these days. On the other hand, it also hinders them to pursue their studies since they are earning money through bitcoin already. I've known a person who suposed to enroll on college until he started earning in bitcoin. He got boastful about his earnings and didn't bother continuing his studies which is wrong because education is always important than anything else.
786  Economy / Speculation / Re: Holding will be a risk or not?? on: February 23, 2018, 06:01:01 AM
As indicated by predictions bitcoin should have achieved 15k$ by end of 2017 and fall in first week of jan 2018

In any case, shockingly its effectively reached 17k$ in 2017.

Should I purchase or hold my btc?I don't plan to sell at any point in the near future.


I believe that all kinds of investments are risky. Even investing at bitcoin is also risky. In the current value of bitcoin, I think that the best way to do is just to hold and wait for the desired value that you want. Just sell it in a good and high value. Better wait to get your desired amount rather than selling it right away though the value is low.
787  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why media against bitcoin ? on: February 18, 2018, 03:27:23 PM
when ever I found any news about bitcoin it is negative news , i am confused why traditional mass media always against bitcoin ?


Media is against bitcoin because they are just following the instructions of the people that are higher than them in exchange of money. That is their job, to spread news whether it's fake or real news. Also,most people are close minded about crypto currency that they believe the news easily. Media is powerful so as traders and investors,let's just ignore if they're spreading negative news about bitcoin.
788  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Have you ever borrowed fiat to get btc? on: February 18, 2018, 12:50:40 PM
Whether it be buying btc or buying equipment to mine btc. Did you ever borrow fiat to make your purchase? I have not. Just curious if anyone ever has.


I didn't dare to borrow fiat just to invest in bitcoin. I believe that if we want something we must work hard for it. We all know that bitcoin is volatile and might drop down it's price unexpectedly so it would be hard to take the risk of borrowing. Better use our own earnings to invest rather than borrowing.
789  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Should I sell my airdropped tokens quickly or hold on to them? on: February 18, 2018, 12:04:27 PM
Hello,
Yesterday I saw some increase in my total estimated token value, and today it dropped significantly.
It appears that a lot of people are selling their airdropped tokens as soon as they get them.
I have not sold a single token from airdrops, and with the exception of some them, they seem to be mostly losing value in time.
Should I do the same or hodl hoping that some of them may increase in value, closing the gap I lose in the process?


I think it is better to hold the airdrops that we had and wait until it reach a better value. I had an experience of holding bitcoin and had a great value after years of waiting patiently. Patience is really a virtue no matter what the situation is. I won't sell it at a low price, better wait and get better price.
790  Economy / Economics / Re: Economy in your country on: February 18, 2018, 09:27:03 AM
What do you think are the effects of btc in your country? Because in my country it thus not affect the economy of ours. Share yours.


The economy in our country is not as good as we had before. There are users of bitcoin here in our country but thay doesn't affect the economy much but it just affect every individual's life and financial status. Bitcoin is not yet totally adopted here in our country and the people's knowledge about it is just limited. If most numbers of people in the economy would be able to know about bitcoin I think the economy growth would be better.
791  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Some of my friends still think Bitcoin is scam and Ponzi on: February 18, 2018, 03:39:05 AM
Dear all,

I just heard some of my friends chatting in a gathering and they think Bitcoin is scam and Ponzi. I just give them a smile and wish they will educate themselves a bit.

So, I would like you to give me some suggestions, how I can give them some hints with soft words which can change their mind or at least give them some more space to think twice?


If that's their opinion about bitcoin then let them be. You don't have to convince them or force them to believe what really bitcoin is. Some people really think of it as scam since most of them haven't had enough knowledge about it. I believe that people who are too close minded about it are those who always think negative about it.
792  Other / Politics & Society / Re: How can one be a good neighbor? on: February 18, 2018, 02:17:31 AM
You can be a good neighbor if you treat them nicely, and being friendly to them. The bible says "Love your neighbor as you love your self."


I agree with you. To be a good neoghbor, you must know how to value the importance of each individual. You must treat people in a nice manner and a nice way and don't do anything bad that would hurt them in any ways. Always show them compasion and share what you have. Don't join gossipers but try to rebuke them.
793  Economy / Economics / Re: Is bitcoin really secure on: February 17, 2018, 05:48:17 PM
Some people invest some if not all of thier asset in bitcoin. They are lured by its growing up value its equivalent to fiat currency but is bitcoin really safe and secure.? What do you think.,


Since bitcoin has pass all the test of time I believe that bitcoin is still safe and secured. It is just for us to handle it with assurance. Scammers are like wolves waiting for their next prey around so we much be careful and observant all the time. We must always secure our private keys and we musn't trust anyone easily easpecially if it involves our earnings.
794  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Can Music Actually Change Lives? on: February 17, 2018, 02:59:06 PM
Throughout society, many question if music actually has a strong affect on people or even if it can change peoples lives in general. In my opinion yes, music can change peoples live in a huge way. I seen in many cases where music helps a person stay out of trouble due to peer pressure or even helps them deal with mental, physical, or even emotional abuse they encounter on a daily basis.

My question for you guys is.... Do you believe music can change peoples lives and why? Also if you have been affected by music in any way please feel free to share your story on how it affected you and or change your life.

Thank you 😊


I think yes. Music has a very big impact in an individual's life. It plays a vital role for it can change each individual's emotions. Through it, we might have a change of emotion through listening to mood changing songs like if we are in a worst situation, listening to an inspirational song would help us boost our hope and faith. If we are in a midst of a serious problem listening to sad songs would bring us to a deeper dimension of sadness.
795  Economy / Economics / Re: Choosing the one | What I think! - Real Job or Full Time Crypto! on: February 17, 2018, 02:35:18 PM
I have read many threads talking over this subject and came to know that many people are very confused about their real job and the crypto world. So out of the panic they have started creating many threads like this. I thought to write some suggestions and kind of roadmap so that people can actually choose what is right and wrong for them. Hope this will help.

If this questions concerns a lot to you then you should know the difference between two.

                                                        _____Real Job______.           
|.    _____Crypto Job_____

                                                            1. Secured fro lifetime.                       
| 1. Unsecured for lifetime
                                                            2. Gives you fixed Income.                 
| 2. Income is not fixed
                                                            3. Promotion Opporutnities.               
| 3. Not Applicable
                                                            4. Yearly Hikes in the Salary.               
| 4. Not Applicable
                                                            5. Recognition in the Colleagues.       
|5. Not Applicable


These are the most vital points in both of them or at least this is what concern a lot to us while following both of them.

However I believe that what matters is the output which is "Money" And when you have enough money then that = Stability in your life.

This can be achieved in easiest way when you have all the point that are covered under the list of "Real Job". I mean if Im coming home everyday with hard work and for which I will get the sure shot salary at the month end then I would be happy for that and will loose most of the tension over that fact.

Lets consider the same case with the crypto currencies and earning through that.

What options do we have under the Crypto venture?
1. Signature Campaigns
2. Social Media Campaigns
3. Bounty Programs (Same thing with token payout)
4. Media Publications
5. Trading
6. Gambling
7. Lending
8. Hardware Mining
9. Coding (Hardest One to get in)
10.Becoming Managers (Very Stable but tougher to reach that level).

Woof! Thats lot of ways with which I could actually earn from the crypto currency. So I might just think that I will leave my job and will focus on all of them.

But what, lets think about it for a moment! Are they really reliable sources with which we could really go for rest of the life? Im pretty sure most of you will say may be, or some of you who are already very old in this field might just say yes. But, I believe its not that easy to work with all if them altogether and you have no assurance that you will get into campaigns all the time and you may not earn the fixed income form these options creating the instability in your house.

Most of the options above need initial investment and some of them are not even fool proof.

We have to agree that becoming manager here is not everyones play so we should consider that option equal to null.

However, real job salary covers all the points in it and we could easily survive! Thats the whole point.

The End Results?

I wish I could have easily said that we can live happy life just on the crypto currency. Unfortunately, I believe that real job is better than the virtual games. I would really suggest that we should look after the family planning, house stability in all possible ways. There is no way we can have that much stability with just crypto world.

You can make it part of your life, but you can push your life depending on it. Not at all!

Suggestions are all welcome!


If I were to choose, I would always choose a permenent job because choosing bitcoin as a fulltime job would be very risky specially if we don't have much savings to sustain our daily living. Though we all know that bitcoin is profitable, it still couldn't sustain our daily necessities because it ain't stable. Having a permanent job is also having a permanent income and that is an advantage.
796  Other / Politics & Society / Re: impact of internet and technology on: February 13, 2018, 01:39:46 PM
how the technology and gadgets are affecting the mind and health of people. is it in more negative way or is it in positive way??

Technology and gadgets both have negative and positive effects in our lives. It makes everything easier such as communication, travelling, information and so on. It helps us reach and get in touch with people that are far from us. However, at some point, technology makes us lazy because what we used to do before is almost done these days by the function of technology.
797  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Sell your house for investment in btc. on: February 13, 2018, 09:47:42 AM
Just imagine selling your $259,900 house for 43BTC and 2 Months in street.

and after just 2 months sell 43BTC for $498198.

Again buying the previous also you will be in profit of $472298.


would you try this technique.


I believe that it is a very risky idea if we would sell our properties just to buy bitcoins. What if bitcoin's value drops down and you won't have any chances to get back your properties? Bitcoin is volatile and unstable so it is better it we will put our earnings in bitcoin rather than our properties.
798  Other / Politics & Society / Re: will you save your bicoin for future?? on: February 13, 2018, 08:54:37 AM
I am new to bitcoin world, and i have done survey about the past of bitcoin, and shocked to see how bitcoin grew its value. It was 0.01$ for 1 btc in 2010 and now it is 380$ and still increasing day by day... 
And , Wall Street Analyst writes, "Bitcoin price could reach 98.5k $".
So will you save btc for future or not.. If yes, then for how many years??


In the current situation of bitcoin , I would want to hodl still. I still believe that bitcoin will rise up soon and will let us reach our desired amount. I'm very willing to wait patiently and gain better in the future. Bitcoin is volatile and panic is not a solution in this kind of situation.
799  Economy / Economics / Re: how many coke cans you can buy with one dollar in your country? on: February 13, 2018, 05:05:10 AM
how many coke cans you can buy with one dollar in your country?
I want to know the buying power for the dollar in different countries.

In Egypt, one can buy 3 cans (350ml) of coke for one dollar approximately


Here in our country, we can buy approximately 2 cans of 350 ml coke last year, but due to tax increase we can only buy 1 can for 1usd which is quite expensive. Our country is trying to reduce softdrinks consumers because it affects our health that's why they increased it's price just like liqiour but many of us still tries to buy and consume it inspite of it's price increase.

Tell me a way money can buy you happiness
or joy, or satisfaction, or anything you wanna call it

Through material things that we get through the money we have, the feeling of fulfillment provides us happiness. However, that happiness isn't for long for that is only temporary and not permanent because as humans, we don't get contented for what we have and we're always aiming for more.
