Bitcoin Forum

several people come to me and share stories about his life in economic problems.  she was confused by her choice.  he worked and served the country.  he gets a salary from the state, but he is also interested in bitcoin.  even every day he spends his time trading.  If in this forum there are people who have the same problem, then my advice is to choose to serve the country, and set the time for the crypto world.  and you will get additional benefits.

He can do both actually, but he needs to manage his time wisely.
He has free time I believe, from his work. Because crypto trading, you can do that anywhere, anytime.
But he needs to abide the terms of the trading platform, as I believe he is a US citizen.
A lot of exchanges have different approach if you are a US citizen.
Just abide their rules to avoid losing his funds.

We all know that working for the country especially if you are in the government, a lot of benefits. For example here in our country, a lot of people dream to work under the government, because of benefits and some of their workload may not that so many and not that busy.
But for me, it's not my dream job at all or maybe it is involved with my skills.

Trading cryptocurrencies while you are working or having a day job, may a good decision especially in your work, you are not that busy and you got a lot of time to learn how to trade.

Doing both is actually still possible to do. Moreover, if she works for the government, I don't think that she must lose her job because she wants to focus on trading. As long as she has a good time and risk management, she can do it. Except that in that country, there is a restriction to their employee to work as traders in crypto. It will probably be different.

Actually, many people are the same. they also have their real job in the office or other companies. And at the same time, they also get into this crypto world, as trader/investor or event just as a bounty hunter or airdrop hunter.
The decision is ours. We can make it simple if it can be.

He doesn't need to choose between working for the state and trading with cryptocurrency. If he can manage his time well then he can do both. Working in cryptocurrency is not a time - consuming job. You just have to check it regularly for updates unlike the regular job that requires you to spend always half of your day working with papers.  

In this life, everybody has their own priorities and plans. So in order to take up a day job and also involve in crypto trading, then he/she needs to keep things organized and stay focused. If done right, the income that would come from crypto would make for a good residual income which can then be used for other endeavors or even add it to savings.

Everyone is serving their country, specially that there is a pandemic around, I know someone who are in the health industry, I introduce him to bitcoin, actually he approach me sometime December of 2019 and then he invest prior to the covid-19 and then after, when the price crash.

He made a loan to the government and put it in bitcoin, and fortunately, he was able to pay it off because he invested when the price is still low, good for him. Unfortunately, he went to the province months ago and I haven't talk to him. He is not trading though, but he just buy and hold and for sure he is serving his country as a medical helper in their province.

If the time allows them to access the Internet while in the military then that person can do both things without sacrificing the other. Bitcoin that much time, just buy when it is low then wait for it to grow or wait for it to dip again to buy more. The choice is pretty irrelevant in my opinion because as I said Bitcoin is not that time consuming.

Time management is the key here, whether you worked to serve your country or you work on private keys. The problem is that being a consistent traders needs a lot of time, because of so many factors and analysis that requires of you to be successful. It will be difficult if your friend work many hours and then go back in front of his/her pc to study the market and do trading, but it is doable, as long as you can manage your time everyday.

I know with time she will quit other business and focus on bitcoin business because BTC carry so much benefits that other business does not carry. Most of the BTC investors are enjoying the pump right now which is like a surprise to them. Bitcoin is a good choice if only you can sacrifice your time to carry out some research to determine the condition of the market.
Covid-19 collapsed so many jobs and businesse but bitcoin still stand well.

What do you mean by "choose to serve the country"?Joining the military?
I would never join the military.Do you mean getting a job as a government clerk?Well,getting such job isn't easy at all in my country.The chance of becoming a government clerk is very small,especially if you lack connections with influential people inside the government.
Anyway,there's no need to make a choice.Everyone should have a 9/5 job and keep their crypto activities as their side hustle.

Serving the country does not mean you need to work in government mate because by simply helping others is enough to say that you are serving your country.

Following the laws and not doing anything bad for others and government is also consider as serving our country.

Like me i use to work in government but needed to extend in private company for salary sake,and now i am in forum in which i can do both Job ,
Business and forum active,though i stop trading years back.

He'd miss some opportunities here and there, plus a bit more added difficulty since you're managing quite a lot, but all in all, it's quite manageable as long as you put your mind into it. And tbf, we're all serving our own countries in one way or another, so if she still wants to continue, then let her be tbh. She can simply set up bots for constant trading actions, though that could make her encounter dangerous situations. Time management is the key here, setting aside at least a few hours around 2-3 should be plenty enough imo to actually set up your trades for the day/during your outside serving the country. Or she could just simply hodl, and wait for Bitcoin to get up in price and exit quite successfully, Holding is a lot easier if she has quite the difficulties managing her time though.

There's nothing wrong with trading at the same time as long as it will not hurt your work, if it will, then I would say it's a shame because as an employee of the state, you are making from the taxes of the people, that is a big offence, it's betraying the trust of the people.

true, the work of the country is still going on and mining is also still working, good at managing time then your friends will get incredible benefits, work in crypto work is free no bond so your friends can work both.

Ain't we all serving our countries in different ways.
You don't need to be a soldier to do that. We have different skills to offer for the benefit of the country.

Anyway, I hope you are doing good advising the guy. I bet he is also in his prime age and doesn't want to mess this up since it will be for the future of his kids or his relatives. Better, for his own future when he gets old.
You could point him here in this forum. I bet he will be glad to read some good knowledge and opinions.

Trading cryptos ain't easy. I won't ever suggest to leave your regular job and focus on trading specially when a person had doubts. A very passionate person in trading will be a different story.
He can actually do both. Serving her country and holding Btc for long term, that's what you call long term trading.

It is true that besides working for the country, we can also work with Bitcoin. It's not that Bitcoin is only good for us, it's also good for the country, if I can be financially prosperous by doing online trading, then it will be good for my country. unemployment rate will be reduced from the country and foreign exchange is earned.

The problems are only popping up when a certain person decide to go in full tune cryptocurrency trading, I already heard a lot of stories wherein they lose their savings and extra money when they leave their past jobs and decide to become a full time trader. I advise people out there to not leave their work even for those who do both trading and their job. We can manage those two if we have good time management after all. A new trader cannot become a full tine trader easily if he still lack of knowledge and experience and it is the reason why for me it is better to get more experience in the trasing first before deciding to become a full time trader.

I doubt it that someone who serves his/her country has 24 hours all in all in duty. There's always a few hours to spend for their me-time. The suggestion is good but what's with the problem if that guy spends his day to day living in trading?

Does it affects his duty and makes him less productive by doing it? if so, he should really have to find the right time doing other things. If he's using his duty time for trading, that's very wrong and a conflict of interest.

I do understand his side that it is really hard to commit himself in two areas of his life where he knows that both areas will binefit him most. I would suggest that he'd still do a full time job in government and have his spare time in bitcoin. But of course i know how time consuming being involve in cryptocurrency was, so better take a rest first after a full time whole day job, then manage your time at night to be involved in crypto but don't deprived your health.

That's totally true. I'm one of those persons you're talking about — those who have a job in the real world and another in the crypto world. I'm a college instructor at the State University here in our place. This is actually my first job and I had quite a tough time to balance my job and my sig campaign at first but eventually, I slowly got the hang of it.

With that said, I'm a testimony that one can do a job outside this community and be part of it at the same time. Well, in my case, I'm just participating in a campaign. I know trading is a different story but I think it's just a matter of time management. If I can, then she can also. After all, "If there's a will, there's a way." :)

Many people still prefer their real job salary than trading with bitcoin. Many people who invested on bitcoin over two years are smiling right now because the market is at good mood  of profit and they also make bitcoin as their first choice in the area of investment.
Bitcoin is the best choice. Many investors chose bitcoin as their choice because of what they are exp eriencing right now in the area if pumping. Many still find it difficult to understand bitcoin and how it works fast than any other currency.

Regardless if you work for the government or in a private company and in whatever industry you are in as long as you are working legally then for me you are worthy as a citizen.

Some would prefer working in the government because of what they can get and some prefer to be in a private company for their own good as well but no matter of which you are in it will still be wiser if you invest and trade, especially in bitcoins for it, may secure not only your present but also your future for investment are still an asset which you may enrich at your most convenient time.

Though investments may not secure profit at all times it can still bring out your best in decision making and strategic mindset or could also be as entertainment whichever you prefer that depends on how you want to look at it.

I believe person can do both work and also doing bitcoin or trading , his work as full time and for the part time will be the trading.
Managing time is really important if you have decided to do both this because if you do not any of that for sure you will not what you gonna do . Many people are have both works and look at them they can manage themselves because time management is the key.

And what is the problem? People who work in the government can easily invest in crypto and learn about it.

It's a bit difficult doing crypto job and doing your real job in real world at the same time, but we can still do it, all you need is set a time management. It's just like a mother who does a lot of housework, takes care of the children and assists the children in their studies and this duty is not a joke it takes a lot of energy to be able to perform everything i mentioned, but still manages to synchronize everything like me. If you really want there is a way.

I think your friend needs to manage her time to work in his office and his time to trade, so she can doing both without any interfering.
All people will have their time for their life and not just for work, so they can do other things, including a trade for searching for another income.
If he works for the government, her salary will be bigger because the government will pay her higher than the other people out there.
So she can use some of her salaries to trade, which can give her a chance to make more money.
In this matter, I think she really needs to manage her time, and I think other people will do the same.
Maybe it is difficult for the first time as we need to schedule our works because we will do another thing besides work in the office, trading, and spend another time for our family, but that will be worth to do.

You can make a balance of the things you want to do in life. In income generation, you are not advised to only focus on one aspect because it can fail and you have nothing to continue life. As you issue here, you can do government work and also have time to trade and also other aspect of business you can do. You just plan on the time to do them. Don't stay only on one job.

I see a lot of people in the crypto world sometimes talking about bitcoin as if bitcoin is going to make everyone in the world become rich and that is a big exaggeration. Bitcoin is an investment like any other investment. People should be aware of the advantages and disadvantages that bitcoin can bring. for example if a person has a monthly salary, why would that person quit a job? whether to have bitcoin is it necessary to have money (FIAT) to buy bitcoin? and we all know that the more bitcoin a person has more, the greater the profit or loss? it makes no sense to quit a job, unless of course if the person has a good deal in the real world.

I don't think that being interested in cryptocurrencies is time consuming. For example, you can invest in a cryptocurrency  wherever you like (at home, work etc.). There are so many people who have free time to do different things than just working. We are human in the end. We live our life for once. We shouldn't limit ourselves just to do our job. We should learn different things, have hobbies etc. . :) 

Of course we can do find ways if we really want to. Being a government servant does not mean you have to do it 24/7. You still have your free time which you can be use in trading cryptos. You can actually do it anytime as long as you have monitored the movement of the market and you are sure of what you are doing. Trading does not mean that you have to monitor the market all the time so you can still manage to do some other tasks aside from trading.

That is a common struggle for most of us especially when we don't have a certain goal in our life that we need to achieve. Some people did try to something that they don't know yet, which causes them not to succeed. If we are saying also that we have to invest crypto but the question is, are they prepared for the risk? Are they have knowledge in this ting? Because if they don't have any from these, I suggest not to invest Bitcoin nor you should have to try it.

The talk about making a huge profit is really tempting but we don't need to have fools into that, yeah, we can make money from it but that seems not so easy by then. It needs work and definitely, it needs time to become possible.

This is just another issue of time management. So far I don't see US banning cryptocurrency entirely so I'm not so sure why she is torn between her job and trading. And mind you. trading can never replace a stable employment. It is just meant as a source of passive income and not in any way supposed to replace your current job. But if you're earning more than your regular 9-5 shift, then I would understand where you're coming from.

Why would need to choose if you can do both? Its not really that a hindrance for you to engage with cryptocurrency if you do have your job neither on a casual job or serving out your country.
It all matters on how you do arrange up on things which would really be that exact or sufficient into your own time.It all matters with good  time management and also with fundings too.
Yes, its hard because we are dealing both fields but actually can really be done if you are really intend into.So it isnt really a problem if you are really that eager or serious
to deal both things at the same time.

Isn't that a very good thing. You have a steady job and you know the opportunity to earn other income, that's a great thing. Many people only rely on real jobs and continue to work like robots, without being able to grow to find a new life or challenge.

Collaborate and arrange your schedule if you really want maximum success, if you fail you have stories and experiences.

Why need to choose when you can do them both?

Use your time focusing in Government work,and for crypto in your spare time

---

I don't find anything wrong in this or any confusing because we are the one who decide for our future.

Serving the country is the best way to enjoy life but earning in crypto is also enjoyable and fun together with changing our life.

Your advice could be useful here if he believes that he can do that. He can buy bitcoin from his salary, but you need to remind him that he needs to manage his money used to work in the crypto world. In this forum, I am sure that many people work in many jobs in their real life and are also doing trading to get their chance to make more money from crypto. It's about how you can use your time to work in many ways and manage it, so what you do will give you more money.

Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!
When I read this post, I remembered the time where I was working with the government as a contractual worker so I don't have any benefits when I'm working there. I saw people here already working for a long time (~5 years but still working as a contractual and doesn't have any benefits).

Focusing in crypto and investing my money that I'm getting into crypto is one of the best decisions that I ever made into my whole life. I'm not saying that working for the country is bad, its just that I don't feel that I deserve to work under other people. I always like to do things myself that is why I found a way to earn online and here I am today.

I'm not saying too that doing both isn't good at all. If you have time to do both then good for you. What is important is you love what you are doing :). You love to serve the country then good. You love to spend time in crypto space then good :). Do it both. The more the merrier.

It is difficult but not impossible to serve the country and work in Bitcoin together. If you can divide the time properly then it is easy work. If you get extra time after working in the country then you can spend that time working in Bitcoin.  This will benefit you financially.  But it also requires you to be patient enough.  Because you don't want to sit in front of the computer after doing special service all day. If you are patient enough, it will never be possible.

It's not entirely clear where the problem is? Many people work in the civil service, and when they return home, they go about their favorite things. It can be a hobby. And how can a hobby prevent you from combining work and leisure? While doing business, you can also combine business with pleasure. Education and passion for new technologies such as cryptocurrencies do not harm anyone. It's another matter when your occupation outside your work job can somehow harm society. What problems does trade cause? It is completely incomprehensible.

It is true you could have real job and do what you do in crypto on your free time.
There are so many people who does it we don't need to quit if we can do it both but do you really think it would be worth it?
Having a job and being a crypto trading is both stressful and it would affect our health so do you think it is still worth it if you would also risk your health for the income?

With most of the country the governments do nothing in return for the serving the country. The corrupt leaders and the officials benefits making the people suffer in poverty and without any basic needs fulfilled. This is where people view gets deviated over bitcoin and other forms of earning to make their living peaceful. Serving the country is a must, but to serve the country one needs to be healthy. To be healthy you need the money or the aid from government.

You are right if Bitcoin or Altcoin (cryptocurrency) is the way to get additional benefits, so don't overwhelm yourself and quit your job unless you want to focus on trading in cryptocurrency (make it your main income) and not buy cryptocurrency to be used as a long-term investment, so you can focus on trading in cryptocurrency and leave your job (my advice if you already have a lot of capital and savings), but if you want to work while investing in cryptocurrency then you just need to buy cryptocurrency every month and hold until the price increases according to your target, so you don't need to monitor every day the cryptocurrency you have and you can work while investing in cryptocurrency.

This really depend on the nature of job of the person, if your job is so demanding that you can hardly spare a moment to have a glance at your mobile device then it is better to concentrate on doing the job otherwise the person can do both without any problem, i also have a job, but my job is not very demanding and i can still find some time to engage in my crypto activities,  
besides being active does not requires too much, you can always spare few minutes to be active through your device, it is that simple, except the person is a day trader which is time consuming.

I think it is good to have an income from his work now, as we know that many people lost their job. If he can still work for his job, especially if he works in government institutions, he should not be worried about the income because he can get paid every month. I am sure he can earn additional income from trading, especially if he can use some money from his payment to trade. By the way, he can use some of his income to invest in bitcoin by buying in every month and hold it until the price increase. He will surely make a big profit if he willing to do that besides trading.

Continue with your job if it doesn't conflict with your personality. Sometimes some people stay with jobs because of the necessities of life even though they're not happy with their jobs (especially for employees). Trading is just a new profitable hobby and can't be catogorized as a job. So between job and trading there are different things that one can't choose.

It is very easy to connect with your crypto activities even if at work, thanks to our mobile phone all that is easy, you don't need to use the pc to view what is happening in the crypto space, it is as easy as viewing your text messages every now and then,  but in the case of this fella, he maybe too busy with work to have time to spare, if you can have a break at work I don't see why you can't access crypto, this is just my thinking.

He can do both things at the same time, he can still work in the government while being involved in cryptocurrency, even though I am not yet working cause I am only a student, I am doing both things and it is not a hindrance for each and everyone because there is no time limit in cryptocurrency, it is all your time, you may do whatever you want. Cryptocurrency is really broad and it takes time before you understand it may be the best thing to advise those people is to join a forum like this, just like what I did, I joined this forum and I am thankful because of the knowledge that I acquired here.

You can do it both with the use of time management, you should know what to prioritize.

There's a lot of things that you can do to balance investment and working for your country. Serving your country should be your no.1 priority and that's your value in your country. There's a lot of time for you to become busy with your investment and cryptocurrency has a lot of opportunity so it is better for you if you do them both.

It is not hard to decide if we know already our priority and if we know which one could give us a better future. It just likes quitting a job and make the fulfillment of dreams of having our own business. May it matter to time management but much better to focus on one thing especially when we don't have enough time. I'd find it difficult because I once tried it. And one of them should we have to give up and make a full-time to one of them (which you preferred).

I can't tell that crypto investment is good coz we know the risk behind but if you wanted to make a change, more excitement, it really won't disappoint you.

We cannot equate trading with work, but if we categorize it as a hobby, things can happen. However, there are a few things that are different this year, of course this is because the pandemic that occurred is not impossible that many jobs have been cut so that unemployment has increased.

one way to stay afloat in current conditions is of course trading can be an alternative, some have even run it as passive income. Of course this is the choice of everyone, because the individual person and the course of profits and losses can vary

I believe both working (for the government) and trading cryptocurrencies can be done together if such person can manage his time wisely.
Sure, there's an advantage to choosing working for the government over trading such as allowances and other benefits and there's also an advantage choosing trading over working such as having your time to yourself and working at your own pace, I believe one is better off doing both.
For someone like this who has a full time job working for the government, the best thing to do is to consider trading as a side hustle, just another means of making money.

Bitcoin or crypto trading is totally online based which all know. So beside the Government job it can be done by  anyone. Actually this is an extra option for earning money. Focus on the work and it will reply you by itself. But it will be suggested by me to stay with bitcoin because we get already a proof of bitcoins ability in pendamic.

Choose which would give you more profit and you would enjoy doing it that is the only advice I would give to the people who are having a hard time choosing which to pursue.
Don't let other decide for you it is your life it is your time so you should decide for your own and enjoy your decision.

Given the inconsistencies in the market price of cryptos as well as profit, it won't be a reliable source of income. Having a job aligned with your passion is indeed a good, but having a job which will give your needs is something. Money cannot buy you everything but it will surely make more than half of it. That's how power works and power is simply money no matter how we loook at things. It is just ideal to have a job that matches your personality and preferences, but if it won't suffice you at times of difficulties, things might change, I guarantee. There are lots of people who were forced to move to professions which are not in their will. Something more profitable is more reliable. I am not biased with trading, I am just opening your eyes to seek for something more if there is.

There is one article i saw few days ago that make me start to they advice those who want to quit their job because of what they saw investors receiving from their Investment. Bitcoin is different from other business you can do 419 to get profit easy. All the protocol concerning bitcoin most be observed through your investment or else you will loose all your money.
I think doing the two job is a good idea in case one fail easy for you to follow up with other business to sustain before you can recover from the loss.
Many people see bitcoin as a hard business to understand. Very easy to understand if only you take your time to study more and carry out more research about their rules and regulations in that forum.

Maybe you should try and resolve the sex of your subject matter to situate your post in its proper context between "she or he". However, I think to some extent I do understand the drift of your post and to this I say that working for one's country doesn't stop one from engaging in business. Crypto stuff is mostly an online kind of thing and can be conveniently carried out anywhere provided there's Internet in that area. So, there isn't or shouldn't be an excuse of it holding one down or restricting one. Anyone who has just a stream of income will always be in a rat race, a situation where income is hardly enough to sustain the person.

If you are serving your country in the army (if my understanding of your statement is correct), it might be hard since there are things that you cannot carry within places that you are serving to. Spending time trading is only profitable if you have your plans laid out and you must have a strict schedule to follow since most Cryptocurrency values might blow up any moment. Serving your country is not wrong BUT its actually more time consuming since having a job within the Crypto Industry, you can control your time with it.

It is not enough just to be concentrated. You need to understand well what and where you are doing. Income from cryptocurrencies is extremely unstable and not standard. Here you can both increase your savings and lose them. There are too many factors outside your control that can change the course of the game at absolutely any time. The element of luck is too great. I would not recommend betting too much on cryptocurrency, the risks are too high.

Believing that most of us here do have their own day stable job and only making crypto as a side one or for an extra which people had been doing for a while now excluding to those people
whom decide to make it as a main source of their income then theyll most likely to be here on this forum but to look up closely aside from trading theres no other
thing that for you to go full time. Signature campaign? Lending? Selling goods? Those arent included on the criteria.

Theres no need for you to make up some choice because you can deal with both things if you do like.Its up to you on how you well manage your time on dealing up with things
and make yourself effective and effecient.Just dont over do it because it would really be a stressful one.

Just make sure that you arent compromising your day job when you do deal with crypto because it would really be a big problem if it happens.

All depends from how you really understand as you said. People who may have different views in regards to this industry, you can earn and you can lose that's part of it, and in any trading or business it's part of it so whether you want to take that risk or you want to stay away will be depends from every people who are going to take this business.

I don't get why anyone has to make a choice here. You can get a salary from the state and hold Bitcoins.

Bitcoin is not some anti government tool meant to destroy all authority. It is meant to give you financial freedom.

Do you feel like exchanging fiat money earned from your government into bitcoins is like betraying your employee or something? Would he care if you spent it on prostitutes?

I think I will start by asking this:
"Is there any prohibition for the government employees to also get a job on cryptocurrency-related? Is crypto still illegal there?"
This is important to answer because if it is illegal, your friend should be more careful because if she is known, she may lose her precious job.
But if there is no matter about it, means that crypto is something legal and trusted, she can do the job both as long as she can make a very good time and funds management.

Why make a choice? Anyone can have trading time or in crypto time it just needs time management. Working in government is a good choice since a lot of benefits you can have. Some people also dreams to have a job in a government because of the great opportunities. In trading, you can do it with your free time just make sure it is not prohibited in your country. It is a matter of time management and discipline in how you will apply it in your day to day living.

You can do things at the same time specially that cryptocurrency cannot be a full time job. You can spend few hours in looking at the market, observe the price ranges and execute your plan in buying or selling a position. We can settle down these two jobs depending upon in our time management and determination.

If you can do both, why should you choose one, right?
Moreover, both can provide benefits.
Working in government with a steady salary can make your finances stable and your monthly needs guaranteed.
Meanwhile, profits in the crypto world are unpredictable, sometimes profits, sometimes losses. Market conditions are always changing and cannot be profitable all the time. Although the profits from the crypto world can be greater, the risks are also great. I would rather agree if a job from the crypto world is used as a side job.
Well, everyone must have a different opinion, we can't force it.

Indeed, but not all have that guts to manage their time in two things at the same time. It is a sort of multi-tasking, some people can't make it that is why they need to choose what they feel that they are more comfortable doing it.
I can't imagine myself doing it, very challenging but worth it. Will that OP's friend has a passion for doing it? That will put him to think and to have the final decision.

We have different skills and knowledge so we cannot just tell others to quit their job and go full time in the cryptocurrency market. I think what matters if we love what we are currently doing, I have job before but I go fulltime trading before I got bored in my office job and what I really want is to actively engaging in buying and selling cryptocurrencies. At first yes it is hard because I'm adapting my new environment and my capital also went negative but I managed to regain it. I'm a full time trader now and I purely rely on cryptocurrencies, stocks and indices as source of my income. I tell other people to make an investment even do they have job, it is scam to hear if they say that they are too busy because I know that they have still leisure time to study especially if they want to become rich in the future. 

Well working and crypto trading can be both do all you need is time management, But on my experience its better to do trading as side line due to the fact that on cryptoworld is not that stable so working on a job is a good source of stable salary. And also due to pandemic most of transaction and jobs were done online so why not do both..

It is based upon in our time management and job as well. There are people can do both things but there are also people which has difficulty to balance different jobs as the same time. We cannot say that we only spend few hours in market because there are jobs that we may spend for more than a regular day/hours. But if we want to change our life, being a trader or investor is the best thing we can make. We should also have a small transition for corporate jobs to the home based job so that we can focus on what we want to reach.

I don’t think there is any thing new or hard about this. I am not a full-time cryptocurrency trader, I only trade when I feel it’s right time to trade and whenever I have the time to do so. I have job that I’m doing and I go to work around 7 or 8 AM, and then I stay at the office till 6pm before going home. I work from Monday to Saturdays, except Sundays which I go to church in the morning and return by 12pm lol.

On a normal day when I come back by 6pm, eat food and take my bath, I then go straight my phone or computer and start the online things and cryptocurrency trading. As for Sundays, if I have nothing after Church, I am fully online. There’s time for everything, and I still benefit from all of them.

No business that have advantage that does not have disadvantage.
Many people see bitcoin as a good investment that will cause someone a good profit. Many never take their time to study bitcoin very well before investing on a particular project. Before you make bitcoin your choice be ready to obey all the rules that governed the platform.
Many use bitcoin to compare to their job which they can choose to do anyhow to their employer and still get their salary well. Since you make bitcoin your choice be ready to function in all angel of the platform to make sure you act well in all activities.
I think I prefer to make bitcoin my choice because I really understand it than my job am doing right now.

Actually if you wanna trade even in your busiest days there is a small time to check market and find if there is a good choice or not.
i remember when i am still trading that before going to sleep at least i give 2 hours the market and if i have some good catch i will surely buy andwill put stop loss to make my investment safer.
Specially Signature campaigns?when you are being paid by posting and thats all.
i don't know what OP's Problem here because Crypto market requires no specific time not like our Real job so we can do both with time management and of course good capital.

Agree. The key is the time and dedication you put into the work you want to do. It works for all the things we want to do in life.
I will share an experience. I'm making homemade lollipops with my mom. We started off a good day and hopefully the kids in our neighborhood liked the lollipops. Then we began to vary the flavors so we must use the time and dedication well to be able to carry out all our activities and obtain a new income.

When the  day jobs and trading are well scheduled I think there wouldn't any conflict of interest although government job has a fixed time while trading time can be adjusted to balance the two, as a trader he should stick to trading higher timeframe, like daily timeframe whose analysis might not take much time before taking a trade set up the trade with stop-loss and take-profits which can be well monitored while at work.

I'm curious to know what aspect of Bitcoin he is interested in? Nvm, you already said he served the county in economic planning commission. He could be a successful trader all the way. It is best he makes his choice by himself and manage time effectively in other not to get into trouble with his employers.

There's really no choice to make here, but for one. To be involved in this economic breakthrough or not. It doesn't matter what work you do and a great example of this are bankers, who should really be against it and even were against it 5 years ago, but no longer are. In fact many parties who used to defame Bitcoin have changed their stance like JPMorgan.
Your money - your choice.

Each of us has our own choices to which certain things we are going to prioritized in life. Serving the Country is an honored and respectable job with lots of benefits. However, if you feel that the earning isn't enough for a growing family needs, it should be wise to seek some other extra earning platform for additional profits. Its not bad to get two or more extra earning tasks daily as long as we can handle everything, most importantly our health. If we think that we are fit enough to get some extra jobs aside from the job that we are currently in, then go. I think its just a matter of systematization. There is also a former public servant here in our Country, he serves as a government official, third from the highest leaders that time, and their family is the most wealthiest among all politicians with his rank since from his time, up to now that his wife is on the same place. And their additional wealth are from Bitcoins because he invested and do trading at the same time. So, its just okay to do Crypto jobs while doing your recent service.

Of course serving the state should be prioritized, especially if we already get a salary from the state, Bitcoin trading activities must not
interfere with the main work. Activities in the crypto world should be done in your spare time, and make it as additional income in a pandemic
situation like now. Unless we are not bound by any company, trading can be a full time job.

you have a good point, but first it's not he, it's she according to the OP.
Yes she could be a successful trader but the word could is not a guarantee, she has to try on his own and experience it.
The problem she wants to be some sort of a day trader as she is trading at the same time while working, which is a conflict of interest and she should be guilty with what she is doing.


Time management is good if you don't violate the rules of your job, and sometimes if we want to succeed into something, we also need to sacrifice something even quitting the job to focus on trading.

Even if we manage to live using only bitcoin, we cannot leave our job that makes us a tax payer and serving state. We can live using bitcoin only without any other jobs but that is not acceptable right now since the mass adoption is still not occuring and you are not accepted as tax payer. We can wait for mass adoption if we really want to live with bitcoin only because we all know that mass adoption is getting closer and closer everytime we are doing our bitcoin job but don't get addicted because you will ruin your own mind if mass adoption doesn't occur.

I don't think that it would be possible for us to live with bitcoin only and without fiat because there are still a lot of advantages that the fiat can do rather than the crypto currency. And one of the disadvantages of using crypto currency is its volatility that's why I don't think it would possible ever to use crypto currency only in our daily living. We still need to use fiat for most of our transactions. 

Then I think the only problem of that person is TIME Management. He can do all that work he wants and no need to choose, he just need to handle it correctly and as long as he didn't violate any rules in his job.

Certainly agreeable. Just seek time management on how you can be able to be flexible on working to serve the country and at the same time what you certainly do really want. As long as you can work on doing both without letting other party be compromised, then go and continue for what you are doing. If you do really want to work on both, just manage your time on dealing with those. Do not just choose one because most of the time, two is really better than one. It is just a matter of being flexible enough so you won't take a chance of leaving the other for the sake of pursuing the other one and spending all your time with it. Think of the benefits you can gain once you properly work out dealing with those two variables.

Well, working for the government doesn't mean he can't own Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. I don't see why would that be an impediment.

He probably works a 9-5 job, but that's what most of us do. You will be surprised at how few people live solely from the income cryptocurrencies provide for them. Trading is no easy endeavour. He can easily end up losing money instead of making an extra buck.  Your advice is a good one. We all dream of financial freedom and not having to work unless we want to, but until then we have to make sure we have something to put on the table.

sometimes we have to sacrifice one side to be able to focus on the other...
I feel grateful that I don't work for the government and know Bitcoin and trading because I can focus more on my family and also be able to make money from crypto. one thing that doesn't good from working for the government is our lost freedom.

I think  it's our own decision, how can we spend our time with good management. We can get good earnings with small investments. It's a good platform for change our thoughts to change our lifestyle, looks like give entertainment & others facilities for our life.

If the country of which such a person serves is not able to provide a living wage for him and for his family, then he has the right to do what he wants. If he thinks that bitcoin and cryptocurrencies will give him more prospects, nobody should not interfere. Let him try himself in this matter.

You said really well crypto doesn't hamper the times and you can do both .This is the crypto field where you can just watch the update news and spending the time when you get free of time its enough to do .I think he/she might do both it will not hamper the practice the ordinary work that's why we love the crypto world .

There's always a way if you really wanted to work with your crypt.

It's just focus and time management that you really needed to workout, everyone can both enjoy your day job even you are working in the government as long as you have spare time to work with your crypto business, it's manageable as there are several strategy that you can develop along the way, it's all up to you how to handle your sources of income.

The real thing is that crypto investment is not a lifetime investment we think to do, the same thing it happens having a job as well. All of these things passes by if we loss this opportunity, time can no longer back again.

If I'm on that position, I'll choose to serve the country and make crypto investment as a sideline. Besides, we can only spent a few hours to our investment unless if you are a trader which is not a factor that could affect to our job. But if we can't afford to do it, having a hard times in multi-tasking, then this is not suit for us.

The common misconception is full reliability on the income from crypto activities. Some people do even tried to sell their house to invest in Bitcoin because they believed profit is assured. It will still be more efficient to have a decent or perhaps a stable income from a job then use this platform as an additional income. There will be instances wherein profit from this activity is bigger than one's salary but the thing to be looked at is the word consistency.

I don't know if it's a man or a woman. Serving the country is a great job, and paying well. As long as these people can manage their time in their government work, there's no problem in being interested in bitcoin. Bitcoin is not a work that you need a lot of time. You only need to know the current news about bitcoin and the current prices, that's all. You can do it when lunch breaks or after work.

As long as that person can handle many works and can manage time of his/her work then I think there is no problem if he/she is already a government servant and want to invest also in bitcoin.

Good idea. There are even people having multiple jobs IRL so I think having an investment in one's side will not be that much of a hassle as long as things would be managed properly. It will be better than to rely only in one source of income especially if that is only crypto investment. Many people are being blinded by the reality in this industry that they will hold with the idea that profit is rest assured as long as they are not selling. But by far experience, things do not work in such manner. There will be times of sell offs depending on your market analysis. Holding it forever will not generate profit. And if there is, seek for more and seek for consistency.

Thats how reality works and this had been a problem for some cases where people do held up that much which do really end up on missing out good opportunity for them to make money.

Too much patience would lead to too much of holding but we know that this is only applicable on worthy coins like Bitcoin when it comes to crypto investment and with other alts as well
but making it as a main pattern in other options you do have then this wont really result on what you had anticipated.

Its not really ideal to rely on one source of income.Always seek out for another one which neither be by means of investment or in other job you do had.

One can actually do both together, if you work with the state it's is even a better advantage because most civil servants as we call them in my country do not work beyond 8 hours, for those who are in the office, they can keep making their post, tweet and transactions on the phone, one source of income is not advisable. We need streams of income to do well in the world.
