Hi folks, Like some of us, I have started my NFT journey via Opensea. I am working on some of immersive tour projects which include aspects of time travel where you get to a 360 view of train stations of early 20th century. I would love some feedback and comments on this! Thanks in Advance.

The fear of losing money (Bitcoin) is probably even higher than the cleverness. Many are worried about the cost of electricity and gas. The additional costs are rising and many can't afford it and are tapping into their cash reserves. Investments maybe more stopped or temporarily suspended to wait for the winter.


Example: In Turkey, inflation is +70% and the currency where accepted by the people there is dollars and euros, unfortunately not Bitcoin which should be.

Mining when you have the necessary tools and place to do so or else if you don't want to have to learn technical things about mining, just be a holder by buying low and selling high, that's what most investors doing right now. Anyway, it may sound simple but still, you need to understand that buying at the right time requires some patience and investment with your time to see and read the past movement of the price of bitcoins, or else you will just gonna gamble with your money and giving it high percentage risk to be lost.

Just the hatred isn't gonna make any big inpact over bitcoin. For now we're gonna experience good change in the market. The market which is predicted to be bearish have shown signs of growth. This can continue for some time period around the same price point of $21k to $23k. The death slogans will slowly decrease when the price recovery takes place. It is common to see statement of death whenever there is market decline. People are used to it and never react in such statements, just ignore.

If you believe that the whole world is corrupt and all actions are futile, then you live in a pretty jaded world.

Of course, there is corruption in a lot of places, and some of that corruption seems to be right in the open in terms of which entities (and persons) are getting awarded government contracts - but there are still levels regarding the extent to which allocation of contracts is acceptable to be open or closed.. and there are levels to whether societies value purporting to have standards, practices and procedures and the rule of law.. or if it is just willy nilly.  The degree of corruption makes a huge fucking differences and if you believe that all kinds of corruptions are the same, then you are living in a world of futility.. or at least those kinds of ideas about whether the actions of any of us matter.

Getting back to bitcoin.  Sure, bitcoin cannot fix everything and cannot fix everything right away, but if you ponder over how various fiat systems are manipulated, bitcoin brings objectivity to several of those matters, and soundness to the money.. and having monetary soundness seems to be something that is lacking in a lot of ways.. .Sure some forms of money are more sound than other forums of money in terms of having foundations in production, yet there is no money that even comes close to the soundness of bitcoin, so in that regard, having sound money is quite likely to improve a lot of incentives all over the world, and bitcoin is already seeming to have that effect in terms of its inspiration of minds and then creation of sound incentives.

The more that the monetary values of people, institutions and governments gravitate into bitcoin, the more likely we are going to continue to witness incentives within bitcoin improving and also incentives of other competing systems improving.. just take money transmission systems into account.  

Some of the monetary transmission systems have had to try to improve their systems for sending money both in terms of their fees but also in terms of their timelines for transmitting money/value, so in that regard, bitcoin is likely already positively affecting some of these systems, even if credit is not given to bitcoin for the improvements. Likely similar improvements are happening in regards to gold and silver markets because they are trying to compete with bitcoin, but they are way inferior to bitcoin, so they are likely going to continue to lose market share to bitcoin for years and years and years (even decades) to come.  

Other systems that are currently storing value are going to lose value to bitcoin too because they are less efficient than bitcoin in terms of storing value.. sure some of the systems have utility value or even productivity and innovations, so those systems are likely going to continue to hold some of their value, but the monetary value is quite likely to flow to bitcoin and to continue to flow to bitcoin because bitcoin is way more of a pure system that is designed specifically to be the soundest of monies and it is ongoingly gaining traction in the direction of the soundest of monies because more and more people, institutions and governments are recognizing bitcoin as the soundest of monies and a unique asset class that had never previously existed.. so people are getting used to it, which is likely causing their behaviors to improve and to continue to improve, even if it is likely going to take several decades to play out and to figure out because there are going ot be ongoing battles and even uses of bitcoin for gambling and for the objectives of enemies, so the battle for value to gravitate into bitcoin is not going to play out in smooth kumbaya ways in the coming decades, even though it seems quite poised to win and quite poised to continue to inspire more sound behaviors that line up with having a sound money (bitcoin) that is in existence and continuing to gain influence in its existence (and adoption) to more and more segments of the world whether friends or enemies.


You may well be exaggerating the knowledge and awareness of people regarding bitcoin.  I would proclaim that an overwhelming majority of people have hardly any clue about what bitcoin is, even if they heard the word and even if some of them might have decided to dabble in bitcoin.  We are still in very early stages of adoption, even though there are surely some folks who have figured out that bitcoin is similar to gold, but actually better than gold (as you mentioned).. but the number of people who are actually both aware of bitcoin's investment thesis and who are employing meaningful and prudent investment strategies in order to attempt to coordinate their BTC investment allocation with such a sound money investment thesis is low as fuck.. it's so low that ONLY less than 1% of the world's population has invested in bitcoin, and maybe even many of us who have invested in bitcoin have not really sufficiently and/or adequately invested into bitcoin... and surely the bitcoin hoards like Michael Saylor and a few others do make up for some of the lack of passion (and action) of the overwhelming majority of the worlds population who do not even own 1 satoshi and have not taken action to start securing some satoshis just in case bitcoin catches on.

And, for sure there are no guarantees that bitcoin's price is going to continue to go up, even though bitcoin seems to be amongst the best (and probably the best) asymmetric bet to the upside that anyone could make in these times... and bitcoin is available to everyone and anyone with even very small amounts of money to invest on a regular basis.. even as low as $10 per week or lower amounts can be bought. which is surely not true for a large number of other assets/investments to be so available to anyone who merely has enough resources to figure out how to hold their private keys.. whether paper wallet or on lightning network or even some kind of an electronic device (and may not even need to be a smart phone, but could be a card or a chip).. and they can also hold their keys in their head (not recommended) and other ways of holding back up seeds.. still a lot of innovations and ways of interfacing with the network to be able to hold private keys (hopefully improving user-friendliness, but there still may well be some learning involved in the various ways to hold private keys - or to have them held by third-parties, second-parties.. or by uncle Jims)
