I won't call that a "trashing" and I don't thing it is. Arsenal was excellent in that game and was unlucky to not have scored immediately after Man City's equalizer. A team the pressed man city for almost 70 mins and prevented them from having a shot on target for the whole first half. Such team should be given some credit.

Inexperience is what killed ARSENAL in that game. The penalty was very much avoidable with little more experienced players, and the last minute goal shouldn't have been too.

I expect Arsenal to take the game to Liverpool and if they'd manage to cool the game down and play more passes, perhaps they'll get the bette of their opponent as Liverpool doesn't thrive in slow paced games.

There's going to be a good number of draw games in this week's FA Cup matches. If you're playing multi games ticket, the best selection should be (Win or Draw) double chances.

Arsenal vs Liverpool is the star match for this week and watching the new Arsenal engage Liverpool will be a value for money.

I just updated the post to let you guys know that I've qualified as a member today. I'll keep updating the main post as I move up the ladder. It's a beautiful feeling getting accepted and getting used to this interesting community.

Thank you guys for being part of the journey so far.

Yes, I'd have raise the $50k If I was totally convinced about the investment prospect. I'm not actually regretting though, just sharing the past experience and reminiscing the prospect.

Sound advice. That's what I'm focused on doing going forward. Trying to raise some fists, convert to crypto, and repeat.

Thanks for the comments.

There are countless of people with similar experience like ours. The feeling of regret is hard to let go but we just have to. And that's what I'm trying to do. The guy who lost his hard drive of 7,500 BTC may probably never live normal life again if he refused to let it go, we just have to let it go and focus on the future.

I have two Bitcoin costly mistakes that I still regret probably up till now. Some time, I just wish I could turn back the clock.

First was refusing to invest $50k in Bitcoin when it was $1 to 1BTC. Then I knew practically nothing about Crypto but someone with the vast knowledge approached me with the investment proposal and plan to hodl for ten years which I turned down.

If I had invested that amount then, perhaps it would have worked in my favour and I'd be a Billionaire by now  

Second was selling my 0.5 BTC at $3,000+ in 2019 just as soon as I got it. If I had waited few more months, I'd have made $20k extra or more.

I applaud that user's honesty even though I don't have details of how it happened. It's rare in this era to see people receive money by mistake and be able to willingly return it back to the owner. I give kudos to the person because it's not an easy thing to do.

I did similar thing in 1994 when I was still a little boy with so much stupid needs for money. I Picked a large envelop filled with cash and letters. The only thing that came to my mind was to find ghe owner and return the money. I used the information from where I picked it to trace the owner and handed it back to him. I didn't get any reward but it has remained my legacy.

For someone who has made only 3 posts since 2020, he could have easily disappeared with the money and never come back here ever again.

I honestly don't get exactly why you posted this but I'm sure you may have your seasons. But some time, it's not just okay to make up stuffs and assume things just because we feel hurt.

1. Every posts and threads I've made so far were because I genuinely feel strong about the topics. None were because of anything else other than to lighting up the conversations.

2. I learned the importance of giving appreciation to whom it is due. That's why I mentioned the names of the people who contributed in one way or the other to make my first stage in this forum a memorable one. And I think it's a good thing to appreciate people who have influenced your life in any little way.

3. I do not belong to any Telegram group, not even one. Wether people make such in telegram group or not, I do not know about that. Perhaps you could just elaborate?

4. People naturally gravitate towards people of like minds and languages. I don't necessarily see that as racism. Though, I'm very new in this forum to tell if there's racism or not, but I don't think there is. So, I'd suggest you free your mind and enjoy this forum.

Chinese, Russia, Africa, India, Arab, The USA, etc. We are nothing but one Bitcoin family.

Thanks for the incredible assessment. Even me have forgotten most of the places I've posted.

I just wish and hope this forum continues to be the best Bitcoin community on the internet. The simplicity and unadulterated nature and knowledge base is quite amazing. From the look of things, I won't be surprised if all the who is who's in the Crypto world are in this forum.

The truth is that, there shouldn't be any worry on paying taxes on Crypto revenues. The choice is totally in your hands, that's the beauty of decentralization. You move, spend, and hold your wealth without government interference.

The only thing that would make you pay taxes on Crypto is, probably, sense of patriotism. Else, you have no reason to worry about as you can easily make your Bitcoin untraceable.



The above diagram explains the beauty of decentralized blockchain transactions  in contrast to the centralized financial flows controlled by the banks and governments, and why it's difficult to trace Crypto. More reason you shouldn't worry about taxation to your Cryptocurrency earned revenues.

Thank you guys for such encouraging words and advice. Be rest assured they're well received and I'll do my best to always be a good member of this forum. I'm overwhelmed by your kind words even when the achievements is so little.

Thank you all.

If you go technical, the newbie will miss the point, get frustrated, and lose interest. Keep it basic and try to be practical.

Don't start by explaining Bitcoin as an Investment vehicle, they'll miss the point and confuse it with HYIP. Let them see it as money first, before anything else.

1. Help him download and install Bitcoin wallet for experimental purpose. During the process, he'll be able to see what Master seed looks like. And teach him how to secure and use it in future.

2. Show him/her how to Send and Receive Bitcoin using the wallet address.

3. There are countless MLM and Pyramids programs out there disguising as Bitcon investments to trick newbies. Explain to them the differences.

4. Show them the white paper and encourage them to read through.

5. Use practical illustrations to them the blockchain technology. And the potential it holds.

It's really difficult to deal with newbies in this subject but time and patience will do the trick.

I don't get it. Where did I say it, anywhere in the thread, that it happened yesterday? Or you just inserted that to make your point?

This is not a news update. The thread is about highlighting the potential profit that has accrued in their $3+billion investment. We all know where to read news if we want to. This place, I think, is where we discussed anything and everything about Bitcoin, and that's exactly what this thread is about.

I believe the Bitcoins are sitting somewhere in multiple custom made Cold Wallets tucked away into a hardened Central Bank Vault. 

Hacking would be completely impossible

Your choice of color is not the best in my opinion. The color choice makes the site look rather unappealing and you know, nothing beats the first impression. Your graphics design need more professional touch or maybe it's not loading well in my end.

I'm only speaking about the front end because that's what I'm seeing, haven't tried the game and the functionality. You need to hire a branding expert and professional UX designer to help you create designs and over all branding that converts.

I think last week, I saw one important Thread Headline and quickly clicked on it to get some useful responses and to join the discussion. I Read the entire replies but couldn't find any useful response. Every post in that thread sounds like they were written by drunken bots who are also on steroids. Now I get it. Perhaps those posts were made by the Bounty Hunters?

If the thread appears on search engines, everyone who's clicking on it is going to be very disappointed. The mistake I made was that I didn't report the posts but I'm sure someone would do that.

It's going to be almost impossible for anyone in their right mind to merit such posts. I don't really know what Bounty Hunting is or how it works but I think more effort should be put in moderating their posts.

I'm trying to wrap my head around this game, to understand it better but it seems not clear to me yet. I think I'd just follow the discussion and watch out for more information because it sounds quite interesting to me,  provided it's practicable.

I'm especially interested in the revenue model because that's what can attract new investors and Investment into this new game niche. You said it's more like Casino but I didn't quite see where you explained the similarity.


Any game that is based on blockchain confirmation, to me, is not a game that can be said to be anywhere similar to casino.

I know the current price is 48k. I'm speaking in general sense of the current price range. In other words, if they decide to sell at the next bullish movement to 60k which may likely happen before February.

For clarity, I'm going to add this comment to the main post.

Thanks.

Michael Sayor just Tweet that his company, MicroStrategy has acquired additional 7,002 Bitcoins for the price of $414.4 million USD, bring their total holding to 122 044+.

Let's look at the profit they've made so far

The 121,044 BTC was acquired with the total Investment sum of $3.57 billion at the average price of $27,534.

Now, let's assume they decided to sell everything off at the current market price range of about $60,000.

Update: I know the current market price is 48k. I'm speaking in the general sense of the current price range. In other words, if they decide to sell at the next bullish movement to 60k which may likely happen before February.

That wound amount to:

$60,000×121,044 =$7,262,640,000
= $7.27 billion Approx.

Subtract: The Investment capital from the current value

$7,270,000,000 - $3,570,000,000

Total Profit so far: = 3.7 Billion.

Remember, they aren't selling yet. Going by the current market trend, the profit could double to $7.4 Billion before the next year runs out.

Advice: If you really wants to make it big in Crypto, HODL without let up until the price is right for you.

Joe Biden becoming American President is a mystery that may never be solved.

I think his social media account has always been handled by his numerous handlers as I guess he's incapable of doing anything meaningful.
