1161  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Dogecoin to be used for micropayments on Twitter? on: October 11, 2022, 05:43:40 AM
Why? Why Dogecoin? We all know Dogecoin is a meme coin that was built by forking Bitcoin.
So for me, this is impossible to happen (Only Dogecoin) Maybe in the future, there are lot of options buy major are the high market cap coins,
primary for sure will be Bitcoin (Lightning network also), Ethereum, and many more.
It will very likely happen if Elon Must actually buys Twitter. He is a big fan of Dogecoin and I am not doubtful that if he owns Twitter and wants to add new tipping methods for it, Dogecoin will be one of his first priorities.

If you want to explore more about Twitter's Tipping, Bringing tips to everyone

How does it work?

You’ll know an account has turned on Tips if you see a cash icon next to the Follow button on the profile page. Tap the icon, and you’ll see a list of payment services or platforms that the account has enabled, and you can select whichever you prefer. The services* available so far:


  • Bandcamp
  • Barter
  • Cash App
  • Chipper
  • Ethereum Address
  • Paga
  • Patreon
  • Paytm
  • Razorpay
  • Wealthsimple Cash
  • Venmo

And today, we’re adding some new services to the list: GoFundMe – an online fundraising platform – and PicPay – a Brazilian mobile payments platform.
They accept tipping with Bitcoin via Lightning Network too.

To understand crypto market, you must learn from both bull market and bear market. If you only experience either bull market or bear market, you are missing another important half. Market does not have bull if it does not have bear.

Bull market is where you can learn how crazy crypto market is in bullish phase. In addition, you will be given chances to learn about scam projects that easily to raise fund from investors.

Bear market is where you can learn that how scam projects or incapable projects will be abandoned or die gradually with time. It is hard to find projects that are born in bull market and are still be able to exist and lively developed in bear market. Very few of projects can have active developments in bear market.
1163  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Strong Breakout for Shiba Inu in the short term? on: October 10, 2022, 11:02:33 AM
The crypto market is bearish and still waits for signal of pump or dump from Bitcoin. Altcoins are in red last few weeks and Dogecoin does not have good performance. You can not expect good performance from Shiba Inu if Dogecoin is boring and sideway.

Dogecoin, Dogechain, Shiba Inu are elements in a meme ecosystem and Dogecoin in that ecosystem is similar to Bitcoin in crypto market. Dogecoin must fly first and after that you will see a flight from Shiba Inu.

Currently I don't see anything that sheds light of Dogecoin rise.
1164  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETC to $100 soon? on: October 10, 2022, 10:57:02 AM
That's actually PnD. Pumpers buying in rumour if miners will be moving tot he ETC and then when they were realizing about the fact miners choose to create a new forking coin and this pushes the price of ETC to go down again.
It's not pump and dump. Ethereum Classic is one of altcoins has gradual growth with time and each halving of Bitcoin. I don't consider it is a good altcoin because of their developments technically or price growth, though it is good if you want to accumulate it and hold a few years.

ETC won't reclaim $100 soon but it will. When Ethereum ETH makes another all time high, ETC will reclaim $100 and even makes a new all time high too.

Quote
I would not be surprised if the price of ETC will be sideways or stagnant. I do believe there will be another pump as long as there will be a good rumor that will spread among the crypto users about ETC
The accumulation phase of ETC will be very long because it has to wait ETH bull run and complete its own accumulation.

1166  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do Kwon on the run, Binance becomes the target of the LUNC community. on: October 06, 2022, 02:54:05 AM
This is a natural reaction by people, most people cannot accept and take responsibility for their actions, and since they have lost some much money with Luna they need to find someone to blame, and since they are not an option in their minds then they need to put the blame on someone else, now Kwon could be a decent target for this but since he keeps telling them what they want to hear and claims they will eventually recover their money they cannot blame him either, so they choose to blame CZ instead.
Binance should not be responsible for the shit created by Do Kwon and Terra team. However, community ask for their support because so many of Binancians lost money in the Terra UST catastrophe but to be fair, it is not a responsibility of Binance.

They can do it or not do it, and community can not say Binance is bad if they don't waive trading fee to buy back and burn Luna Classic LUNC. It should be done by Do Kwon and Terra team but community have reasons to beg for support from Binance. They are a very big exchange and trading fee on Binance can result in biggest effect if they accept to use it for buy back and burn.
1167  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The irony of leaving your private keys in a bank on: October 05, 2022, 03:32:36 AM
Why you have to save your private key in bank vault. You trust a third party to keep your private key safely. Even you can trust them and their service is good, the service cost should be expensive.

You can take care of your private keys safely only by yourself. Think of reason why you keep your private key in bank vault? It is for recovery later, what you save is only a backup.

And you will have your private key in hands, on your devices to spend your coin. You can not go to bank everytime you need to make any transaction. It is time wasting and unnecessary.

If you use bank vault service, it should be for a wallet with big fund. For a wallet that you store small fund for regularly use and transactions, you should save its key by yourself.
1168  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: WHAT HAPPENS TO BITCOIN IF ATLANTIC INTERNET CABLES ARE CUT OFF? on: October 05, 2022, 03:06:53 AM
Bitcoin has a decentralized network and different geographical mining locations. Each location has different Internet access. So it is almost impossible to see all Internet on Earth is cutting down. If it happens, it's likely that all of us should be death too.

If such apocalypse won't occur, we will still see Bitcoin network keeps running well. Even if some big mining farms have issue, Bitcoin network will only be congested for 2 to 4 weeks, and after 2 or more difficulty retarget times, difficulty will be adjusted and the network will run smoothly again.
1169  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: LUNA PUMP on: October 04, 2022, 09:24:47 AM
Eventually Binance joined (after pressure from community) and burnd LUNC in the first time, from all trading fees of spot and margin.

You can read details with their tweet https://twitter.com/binance/status/1576943349143310336 and don't forget to follow their Twitter as well as CZ's Twitter.

I believe LUNC has a bright future with very great speculative and manipulative price-making in coming months. Hold tight if you have LUNC everyone. You won't regret but it's not my financial advice.

More important, don't use all money you have and bet it in LUNC. It's risky.
1170  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: it can affect the price of bitcoin? on: October 04, 2022, 09:11:16 AM
Bitcoin is still seen and used as widely as a speculative asset
A speculative asset is one of Bitcoin utilities. You can use Bitcoin in many ways, with different use cases.

Investment (real investment), speculation, trading, payment method and more. In future, with bigger adoption for Bitcoin and more enhancement in technology, Bitcoin will have more utilities and more use cases.

Utilities and use cases create value for Bitcoin and consequently we will see good growth in price. Building fundamentals, create value then price will follow.
1171  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: LUNA PUMP on: September 30, 2022, 12:21:55 PM
Luna Classic will not reach its previous all time high and those people who have lost their money holding luna, their money will never be recovered.
New people might invest in this coin, but old Luna holders will never invest again.
I am sure Luna Classic won't reach to its past all time high because if anything happens for price to more than $100, it should be for Luna (LUNA), not Luna Classic (LUNC). But I have more belief in Luna Classic because I don't want to see more engagement of Do Kwon. Luna Classic now is still affected by news about Luna and Do Kwon but it has gradually become a community-driven project.

I don't need Luna Classic to hit even to $1. $0.01 is enough for me and from latest rises of it, I think that price is reachable.
1172  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Cryptocurrency information surface collection on: September 30, 2022, 12:15:45 PM
If you're going to make trades based on cryptocurrency news, you're likely to lose out. Some traders use software to scrape out news article titles and automatically makes trades based on guesses concerning market sentiment. You're likely to just get front-ran.
News are used by whales to mislead newbies because newbies believe news are reasons of market ups or downs. Newbies should know news are not real reasons. It is released to make market ups and downs look to be reasonable.

News are things following market ups and downs, and the market does not move ups and downs because of news.

Quote
But yea, if you really want to do it, probably go with the likes of The Block, CoinDesk, and Cointelegraph.
I don't agree to read news from Cointelegraph that is full of low quality news.
1173  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin be Palestine's currency of freedom?? on: September 30, 2022, 03:56:03 AM
Bitcoin is for everyone and everywhere. Just need to have Internet connection, a non custodial wallet (should have it, rather than custodial wallet), you can use Bitcoin.

Can use means you can receive and send it to others. Next, get accepted as a payment method locally is different; get legal tender is more different. If you use Bitcoin for illegal things, you will not have or have less issue with government even Bitcoin is not legal tender in your country.

It is totally free, portable and no central control or censorship.
1174  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do Kwon on the run, Binance becomes the target of the LUNC community. on: September 29, 2022, 04:30:08 AM
Do Kwon is still affecting the market of cryptocurrencies, what do you think people are going to think of someone who is responsible for the disappearance 45 billion dollars in market cap in just a matter of days and that is now on the run? They are not going to want to invest in this market, and you can be sure the media will be all over this, not only because it is a huge news but also because this will hit the market hard, because even if another crash does not follow, it is almost a given this will delay the recovery of the market, making the bear market even harsher than it should be.
Why do you have to care about Do Kwon?

He is only one guy in crypto industry and the market will go onwards with or without Do Kwon. It is only because newbies are easily to be manipulated with such news. Whales and market makers know that and they release fud news at right time.

Why did they not release news about Interpol when LUNC was low? They waited after LUNC increased 6 times and started to fud.
1175  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: FTX Review: The Best New Crypto Derivatives Platform on: September 28, 2022, 04:12:09 AM
FTX is actively exploring the crypto space, so it is reported that FTX won the auction for the sale of the bankrupt lender Voyager Digital, offering about $1.4billion for the deal.
Sam SBF and FTX have different approach than CZ and Binance in this bear market.

CZ and Binance would like to let bad projects to die because they consider it as a way to clean the market.

Sam SBF and FTX would like to rescue those projects by some methods and they consider it as chances for them to build up reputation and expand the ecosystem of FTX. If they do it in bull market, they must spend more capital but with this bear market and lot of collapsed projects, they can achieve same result but at with lower cost.
1176  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Nuclear and gas fastest growing energy sources for Bitcoin mining: Data on: September 28, 2022, 03:59:53 AM
Critics who formerly used to fault the danger to environment mining bitcoin with non sustainable energy will need a new reason as that one is becoming less valid with the transitioning.
It is not valid critics because they don't make critics based on evidence. Even before the Great Hashrate Migration and considerable changes in energy sources for Bitcoin mining industry, they wrote bad words about the industry but they ignored the fact that it is more sustainable than others.

Quote
With more transitioning to sustainable energy sources we will have lesser air pollution as carbon emissions will be reduced thus having a safer environment.
Bitcoin mining industry is only a very minor one amongst many other industries on Earth. Only Bitcoin mining industry can not stop and change the global warming but we should appreciate the improvement for Bitcoin. More decentralized, especially more sustainable and more reasons to not be banned.
1177  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do Kwon on the run, Binance becomes the target of the LUNC community. on: September 28, 2022, 03:49:33 AM
A few days ago, there was a Twitter trend of the BoycottBinance hashtag by the LUNC community, urging CZ to carry out the Burn Trading Fee mechanism which was finally implemented[2]. The initiative is still questionable, whether binance is really worried about losing a number of users, the new smartcontract protocol, or cz just wants to help holder losses in the past by this mechanism.
Since the start, CZ stated that he did not support fork but support buy back and burn. Burning create value but fork does not.

However, the decision of Do Kwon and Terra team is bad and CZ tweet "SMH - Shake My Head". Now I don't think CZ has interests to support LUNC and why Binance should sacrifice trading fee on their exchanges to buy back and burn LUNC. That's unrealistic at the moment but I don't think we can exclude that possibility in future.

Maybe someday CZ might change his mind but it is not his responsibility so it's not wise to speculate what he will do.
1178  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Paths through bitcoin success on: September 27, 2022, 12:25:11 PM
I think the real problem with altcoins or majority of them is their short term goal view, not only that, even investors of alts also have this view which automatically either put pressure on some of the genuine alts devs or motivate some of them to want to take the easy route.
Decentralized network, anonymous (but not scam and genius) founder are one of strongest support for Bitcoin growth after many years. Altcoins can not have that especially decentralized network.

I see Ethereum has very long term vision and it has built up a very big ecosystem that is biggest amongst altcoins. Very little altcoin projects can have something similar to Ethereum about vision and success.

Quote
Btc has passes through stages of development and improvement in years but alts wants to achieve this within a short period.
Bitcoin is not the first cryptocurrency but it is the first one that makes lot of noise and achieves great success. After more than 13 years, Bitcoin now is a biggest pillar of cryptocurrency market and blockchain industry. It plays a role like a gold standard, I suggest to call it as Bitcoin standard for other cryptocurrencies (alternate altcoins) to rely on.

Even altcoins tend to rely on or don't tend to rely on Bitcoin, they are still affected a lot by Bitcoin.
1179  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Binance trading activity is 13x larger than any other exchange on: September 27, 2022, 10:45:56 AM
I think the main contributor to Binance had a huge lead in the trading volume over all other exchanges thanks to their main adamant about fake trading volume and washout trade. Binance has expressed many times they'll do anything to curb stomp things like that.
The amazing increasing trade volume on Binance is from their wise strategy to give away trading fee. With 0% trading fee, users have more reasons to trade and when they fall into the trap, trading volume increases organically and sustainably.

This increase recent months is also supported by recover of Bitcoin and crypto market in general. With less fear, people go trading more.

Quote
Couple with the mandatory KYC, you'd have pretty effective ways to reduce fake trading volume and washout trade. This makes their trading volume more credible to any other exchanges. Traders flock to Binance because of its credibility and reputation, and it'll keep increasing just like that.
It is not related to mandatory KYC I think so. It is about whether exchanges are against it or not. Even they accept bot tradings, washout volume and fake volume are more related to exchanges themselves, not only traders.
1180  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Nuclear and gas fastest growing energy sources for Bitcoin mining: Data on: September 27, 2022, 10:36:56 AM
Bitcoin Mining Council report has an information that the percent of sustainable electricity mix has increase of 6% from 2021 to 2022, Q2.

I think it is a good transition but it is a normal change because more geographical areas have been involved in bitcoin mining. We see in newly adopted locations for Bitcoin mining, they have good sustainable electricity resources.

Quote
Based on this data it is estimated that the global bitcoin mining industry's sustainable electricity mix is now 59.5% or had increase approximately 6% year-on-year, from Q2 2021 to Q2 2022, making it one of the most sustainable industries globally.
