I think bitcoin will be die if no one use bitcoin. Because people that make bitcoin is worthed. There are a lot of people that use bitcoin for their daily life especially some people in city that so many merchant in there that accept bitcoin.
yes you are right that the value of bitcoin depend on the number of users, if the people stop using it than bitcoin would die. but here i think that due to bitcoin a large number of people get their income by earning, and also alot of people get employment from bitcoin forum,so there is alot of benefits from bitcoin so how could they stop using bitcoin.
1622  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What to do with the people who don't like Bitcoin? on: April 15, 2017, 04:10:26 PM
Well we cannot force them all to use Bitcoin if they really don't want, what we can only do is to promote Bitcoin more and it is up to the people who see the advantage of Bitcoin if they will join or not. But if you are concern to someone or this people is very close to you then you should can force them to use Bitcoin just make yourself an example but before you can become an example you should have gained alot from Bitcoin so that people will be inspired to you.

If someone is interested in something then they will be serious with it, but if not it will be difficult for us to persuade them something.
Usually people who does not know bitcoin indifferent to it, moreover people who hate bitcoin. Maybe someday if they see you was succeed in the bitcoin  world they will change their mindset.
you are right that if someone has interest in bitcoin then it will be much easy to bring him in bitcoin community, but the big problem with people is that, they think everybody in the world just want their own benefits and also think that the person who is explaining about bitcoin there must be his own benefit but they don't know the real success behind bitcoin.
1623  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to make governments accept bitcoin? on: April 15, 2017, 03:54:33 PM
The only thing we can make so that the government will accepts Bitcoin is we need to unite for it. We need to promote Bitcoin more so that when majority of people all over the world use it, the government will have no choice but to accept it. We nee to share awareness about Bitcoin. Teach our friends, relatives those who are in our community.
you are right that we need to do all the possible efforts for the promotion of bitcoin if the investors invest their money in bitcoin so large number people in the country will start using it and if the large stores adopt this currency so i think that bitcoin would be accept by government. we need to compel the government to accept it.
1624  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if all nations of the world started to use bitcoin on: April 15, 2017, 03:41:06 PM
What will happened if every country started to use bitcoin. Is the current supply of bitcoin and blockchain capacity can handle every bitcoin user?

Thanks in advance.

it is good, the bitcoin will increase the number of investore and the number of users. it will lead to the grow of bitcoin and it will be known in all countries it tends to be every store in the world will accept bitcoin as its payment.
you are right that if the number of investor for bitcoin will increase then there will be large users of bitcoin and if the users of bitcoin will be increase then the price of bitcoin will increase day by day and due to which gradually many nations will start to use bitcoin then bitcoin could be a world currency in future.
1625  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you save bitcoin for fun or for future purpose? on: April 15, 2017, 03:29:12 PM
I used to store s for creating my own  related website, but then suddenly my financial conditions got worse and I used all my s to repay my debts and now I am starting to collect s again to fulfill my dream.

Well that is the beauty that s gave you.  To be able to repay debts with selling your s.  I am sure you sell it at higher price the first time you accumulate it.  Anyway, it is always not late to collect and accumulate  once again.  This time try to get another stream of income so you won't have to sell all your s to meet your needs, and make the maximum profit out of it.

Yeah  has helped him in his tough times and it also helping me in my tough times as if I am in need of money then I sell my coins and no doubt its very painful to spend them as it takes great efforts to earn them.

yes, sometimes when we need money,  emerged as a last resort, of course,  gives us an advantage,..what would you do if at that time you did not use , ??maybe you will be difficult to resolve your problem.  it's proof that  help us, so I think  is a promising investment, when one day we need money we can sell all of the coins, as you say, it is very difficult to find  and you will find it so difficult to sell, but it is a function of   trading, now maybe I'm just hunting  for fun, but I also prepare investment for me to use in the future.
so important because you have to see that  is very useful and will certainly continue to evolve in the future later on, so I think you should start to save the future

We never know about future of the , which makes I still doubt is  has not used formally as payment. The best way is that we benefit from the price movement of , if high prices better soon to sell.
the price is keeps on increasing and it will gave benefit in future. rather than using it for daily life if you save a good amount it will gave a good benefit in future. i has a separate account in which i am saving some of the my usual earning.
well i think that you are right that you save bitcoin for future to increase its increase and it is very good, i am also saving bitcoin for future to increase its price and for this reason it will be very beneficial for future purposes like investments and other expenses as to avoid from financial crises.
1626  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin be replaced by another cryptocurrency? on: April 13, 2017, 07:15:06 PM
I don't think that bitcoin will be ever replaced by any other crypto currency as I don't see any competition to bitcoin at a moment and even in future bitcoin will keep on updating itself with the demand of people so its hard for any crypto to replace bitcoins.

There is no competition for bitcoin at a moment but it can be changed in future when new technology will arrive and at that time there is a possibility that bitcoin can get replaced by other currency.
i think bitcoin is the most popular currency as majority of people are using it and as you think that in future it could be replace by new currency with the arrive of new technologies, well so i think that when in future the new technologies arrive so bitcoin will also adopt these technologies and update its self.
although everything is possible and bitcoin can be replace by any other currency but still i will like to add that as bitcoin is still the number one currency of the world and people from all over the world are investing their money here therefore in current position not a single currency can take its place and may be it will really take a long long time.
well you are right that bitcoin will be number one for long time and if the pioneer of bitcoin will update it with the arrival of new technologies than it will be always the head of the other cryptocurrencies but if they leave the bitcoin in the same position in the future and ignore updating it then there is possibility that it can be replace by another currency.
1627  Other / Off-topic / Re: Smartphones are vital to bitcoin growth on: April 12, 2017, 05:31:20 PM
More and more people are using smartphones thanks to budget friendly mid-rangers, almost anyone can now afford to buy a smartphone.

Mobile payment is becoming more common and it is an opportunity to acquaint people more into using bitcoin . Mobile payment will eventually replace credit cards or at least will make them less mainstream. An example  of this is Apple Pay. Bitcoin smartphone wallet  apps are to use when you have a transaction, you just scan a qr code and the transaction is done though will take some time to be confirmed.

 
i think yes smartphones are very vital for the growth of bitcoin because in every place there are alot of people who have smartphones with internet, and they can easily work in bitcoin forum with smartphones. only less number of people have laptops or computer for this.
1628  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Future on: April 11, 2017, 07:12:01 PM
Is bitcoin a future proof currency?
if you mean that in future bitcoin will be a known currency in online world then i think yes it will last for longer time in future because more and more people are entering in bitcoin community and adopting bitcoin.i also think that in future bitcoin will be more advance with revolutionary features, so it will be famous in future.
1629  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can we have a bitcoin day? on: April 11, 2017, 06:51:21 PM
Every big event or thing, invention has a day to commemorate or its commemorative day https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_commemorative_days
I would like to call upon entire bitcoin community to make a bitcoin commemorative day also.
Something like World Bitcoin Day.
I hope this will bring bitcoin to more attention.
Edit : Poll added.Everyone is requested to vote.
i think yes we should have a World Bitcoin Day and if we celebrate it with full zeal and zest so then those people who don't know about bitcoin they will eagerly start searching about bitcoin and gradually they will attracted toward bitcoin when they learn the benefits of bitcoin and so that day will prove good for bitcoin.
1630  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin has no competition on: April 10, 2017, 06:12:49 PM
I beleive bitcoin has no competition in an online currency. Because bitcoin has been still on top among altcoins, even altcoins pumped still bitcoin is the main used by many. Its demands has been increasing, as this shows that bitcoin is still leading on top though.
you are right that there is no other currency in competition with bitcoin because bitcoin is the most popular currency of the online world and because of its popularity and beneficial features there is extend use of bitcoin in many countries with respect to other online currencies.

1632  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Daily use of bitcoin? on: April 06, 2017, 02:55:09 PM
I hope that Bitcoin will get used by many more people other than us nerds..
Yes, all of comunity think same with you, unfortunately it is not will be easy because there are not many stores accept bitcoin for payment method, right now bitcoin be used for investments usually for trading bitcoin to fiat and trading altcoins to bitcoin and getting profit from trading.
i think bitcoin can be use in our daily life in online shopping because there are many online shop who accepted bitcoin as currency and from there we could easily buy everything from small to large.
1633  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: In what situation would Bitcoin die? on: April 06, 2017, 02:36:57 PM
I think the main attraction of bitcoin is its price and nothing else. If the price and future potential doesn’t look so great, no one would have used bitcoin just for the technical purpose. So bitcoin can only die if the price does to extreme minimum, at least for me.

I am an investor and I don’t bother about the technology. Bitcoin investment is giving profit to me and hence I am using it. If bitcoin price go to extreme minimum where there is no hope for recovering, I would not mind to quickly switch to other currency to keep my invested capital safe. So, for me the pricing is only factor, where bitcoin can die. 

yes you are right that due high price of bitcoin too much people attracted towards it,but its price also depend on people if large number of people using it so its price will be maximum but if people stop using it then in that situation bitcoin would die.
1634  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What to do with the people who don't like Bitcoin? on: April 06, 2017, 07:26:05 AM
From the people I've heard rip on cryptocurrency, its less about the coin and more about the fellow behind the coin they don't like. I would hear things like "the only people I've known who do this stuff are _________" sort of statements. It is peculiar that often times these comments come from females who only care about the people that fit within their scope of interest.
whenever you are talking about bitcoin to others, you need to explain them with such language that people hear it with interest, you need to first explain them all the benefits of bitcoin and then you should need to explain them practically.
1635  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Even now in 2017, why is bitcoin *still* not accepted as a major currency? on: April 06, 2017, 07:12:17 AM
Doesn't make any sense TBH. We should've seen it starting to replace conventional currencies by now.
bitcoin is advance currency and many people didn't know about it in backward areas.if everyone know it then it can be accepted as major currency.it could not replace the conventional currency because conventional currency has widespread access and everybody know it.
1636  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin make Banks disappear? on: April 06, 2017, 06:55:28 AM
It seems that experts say that Bitcoin 'Here to Stay,' But Banks Could Disappear.


"TheStreet: How do you think FinTech will impact the way banks operate?

Frank Schwab: Banks either react on, or they will disappear. Anyway, the consolidation of the banking industry accelerates as the behaviour of people changes. Some banks will benefit from [FinTech], some will be pushed to the back end, and some will disappear."
http://www.thestreet.com/story/13419089/1/bitcoin-here-to-stay-but-banks-could-disappear-says-fintech-expert.html

What's your read on that?


bitcoin is online currency and only those people know who have internet and also some of internet users didn't know about bitcoin and about fiat currency everyone in a country know it, from child to old. also illiterate persons know about fiat and they know that fiat belongs to banks,that's why banks will not disappear. the only reason is if 100% people of a country know about bitcoin so there possibility that banks would disappear.

For a long time Bitcoin owners have wondered whether they can purchase anything for the cryptocurrency coins they own, and now they are finally in their Elysium of abundant merchandise. Online environment is currently full of Bitcoin only retailers that offer consumers numerous items and services, such as luxurious accommodations, rare collectibles or even a ticket to the spaceship, thus, there is a list of most wonderful things the users can buy without having to exchange their digital coins.

A flight into space

Travelling to the outer space is a rare experience which is challenging to get for those who are fascinated by the beauty of the unknown. Therefore Richard Branson, the founder of Virgin Galactic Company that specializes in unusual journeys, decided to give the consumers an exceptional opportunity to see how the blue planet looks from thousands of miles above while trying to make the new horizons more accessible and to improve the life on Earth by researching the space.

The University of Nicosia, the most popular university in Cyprus that offers academic courses in English, is the first explorer to accept bitcoin. Furthermore, the institution has launched a free online course which is intended to present cryptocurrencies, their technical characteristics and history.

Moreover, the Alma Mater has invented a Masters of Science degree in Digital Currency, that can be obtained online or on school grounds, and addressed to young developers, business representatives, accountants, entrepreneurs and anyone else interested in the expansion of the growing market.

Taking into consideration the number of VIP rooms, the mega yacht can serve as a luxurious water house for a big family, or as a cost-effective investment with prospects for future rent.

Precious metals

According to the latest data, Bitcoin is often called the modern gold, and now consumers have an opportunity to acquire some precious metals for it, as there is a Canadian company that accepts the cryptocurrency.

The villa is earthquake resistant, and supplied with a panic room and a nuclear fallout shelter, while high security level ensures the protection of inhabitants using the CCTV security system. Such houses can be used as a holiday homes, or as business investments, since the location is popular among tourists.

Lamassu Bitcoin ATM

Users looking for a profitable venture, can opt for Bitcoin ATMs, considering the fact the machines bring their owners thousands of dollars a year. The first Lamassu Bitcoin ATM was created in 2013 and used to function as a vending machine only. Nevertheless, by the middle of 2014 it was improved with the addition of a floor cash dispending stand, Santo Tirso. The machine has an ability to support every existing currency with preliminary settings, however, only one at a time.

Consumers can purchase the unit for 9.158 BTC, with shipping services or courier arrangements. Yet, before launching the ATM, the owners should study the list of Bitcoin ATM regulations, that depend on the location, or contact a lawyer. But the cost of the machines is usually covered within the first three months of use, making generous return on the investment. Thus, if customers wish to multiply their Bitcoins, obtaining an ATM is a smart way to start.

Bitcoin keeps spreading worldwide, giving the retailers and business owners an opportunity to keep abreast of the digital payments and innovations. Furthermore, the educational system is changing to create new specialists in the field of cruptocurrencies and to start recognizing the need to increase the variety of deposits. In addition, Bitcoin sattelites in space lead the experts to the conclusion that the digital currency has a bright future ahead.

https://worldcore.eu/blog/10-wonderful-things-purchase-bitcoin/

Seems like a decent & comprehensive list of luxury items.

340 BTC for a trip into space. Have to admire the vision of Virgin Galactic and Elon Musk for thinking to calculate their prices in btc.

Anyone have anything they might add to this?  


these things are very luxury and needs alot of bitcoins to do them. but only these things are not necessary to purchase with bitcoin, there are also many things to purchase like those things which facilitate our lifestyle because first we need think of life's necessity. also every person would not have such large amount of bitcoin.
1638  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When I talk to NON-BitcoinTalkers they don't know.. on: April 05, 2017, 05:08:19 PM
Most people I talk to may have heard of bitcoin but have no idea how to get any. In fact, most of them don't know what bitcoin is.

I've had talks like these for quite a few times. Cheesy Tho after a dozen of talks about bitcoin and how to earn it, only one friend remained active here.

I tend to keep all the deeper tech stuff out of the conversation since it only leads to confusion, keep it simple when talking to someone who's not into bitcoin.
only talking about bitcoin to your friends or other people will not easy for them to understand, infact few of them could hardly understand that what is bitcoin. you need to explain them practically by showing them how to do this.then after that they could understand easily. you need to explain all the features of bitcoin for attracting them.

Does it make sense to believe that Bitcoin could one day be replaced by another cryptocurrency, that is, a cryptocurrency that really does make Bitcoin obsolete?
i think bitcoin would not be replace by another cryptocurrency because of its popularity and its features.but if the another currency which would more advance than bitcoin,and having more features than bitcoin could be replace.
1640  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you save bitcoin for fun or for future purpose? on: April 05, 2017, 08:00:44 AM
I have think of it and i have save up bitcoin just a the small amount because i have plans for it to have fun like travelling didn't even save it for future purpose. so i wanted to know what are you going to do with your bitcoin if you save bitcoin.
