I can't help but admire this team, talk about skill, btw this isn't my fpl team but the highest of game week 9 in the entire world..

Am wondering to myself what stops us from getting such scores with such a practical team and without any Manchester city assets that I expect everyone to own at least 1 but a non City squad, this is a slap in the face..well played Gretna FC(Serbia).

Team Kanapka, congrats on that solid 110 points making you the GW9 champ

1163  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is a 20% Annual Return good ? on: October 23, 2023, 04:33:49 PM
With my experience in the cryptocurrency market, I decided to develop a short-term Bitcoin spot trading strategy using the TradingView platform and its strategy programming tool. I managed to create a strategy that yields an average annual return of 20% according to backtesting.
20% on a small account might sound small but if you are managing a big account of say a million dollars, this percentage in profit is more than generous!!

As for the backtesting session, how many times did you test your strategy and were you using the bar replay for this??

Did you factor in any potential news and how it could affect your trading results?? If all this was done with satisfactory results then you could be ready for he real markets.. Cool

My question is, is this return acceptable, or in your opinion, what would be an acceptable or good return?
20% ROI is more than acceptable unless you want to over-leverage your account for some crazy profits that is likely inspired by most of these YouTube videos that show one trade gaining huge profits !!!

BTW what trading platform do you intend to use??

You can get an APR of more than 20% on Bitget Flexible savings
20% is like free money Tongue and had to check this out...

From what I saw on BItget>> https://www.bitget.com/earning/staking the popular coins don't get the offer anyway near this rate, which isn't surprising as the model is used to hype the smaller tokens/coins  Roll Eyes

Feels good to be part of the winning circle, hope to see more of these in the coming weeks..

Btw special mention goes to Jinetics1111 who had a good start to this gameweek, and for a second I thought this was the player to beat, but unfortunately, sport being so unpredictable the game changed tide so quickly to get me back into the game & clinch the sweet prize of 3B.

Hope gameweek 2 gets a better reception than we did in GW1, and hope everyone knows the schedule if possible do these players get PMs or this is against forum rules and can't be used?

1165  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If Bitcoin were a physical currency. on: October 23, 2023, 02:07:40 PM
I'm new here and don't know much about bitcointalk forums.
Firstly, welcome to the btcointalk forum hope you will have an exciting jouney.

But I thought about Bitcoin for a while. At one point I wondered what it would be like if Bitcoin was a physical currency instead of a digital currency. It would not have gained so much popularity, and its price would not have increased so much. If it were a physical currency, it would be very difficult to buy, how would you buy? And had to go to different stores to sell or buy. How difficult it would have been then. Are you thinking about this?
If bitcoin was a physical currency it's most likely it would have been shut down by now because it would have been easy to trace and get the money printing machines destroyed or surrendered to whichever state they operated in considering it's competing with an official currency of a country. I am pretty sure Satoshi thought about this and found the digital space to be no man's land and the rest is history..

And btw had bitcoin been in its physical form it would have been unpopular as authorities would find it much easier to convict users as evidence would have been there to be used for the conviction, otherwise happy how it turned out to be digital.


1166  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you prepare for a Bitcoin bull run? on: October 23, 2023, 09:40:58 AM
Before a 2024 halving, you must make your preparation for it.

Checking your wallet. Do you still have access to your wallet?
Access to wallet ✅✅
Ready for for halving ✅✅

Making some wallet backups.
Storing backups safely.
Be ready for a 2024 and 2025 bull run with usable wallets.

If you are a witness in a big bull run but you lose access to your wallets, it's damn terrible.
Creation of Backups and ensuring that I actually have access to these coins was and is always done as the first step of creating a wallet!
And I applaud you for this information,as this is useful for users new to the crypto world as you don't want to be buying Bitcoins because of the halving only to find that you have been locked out of your wallet because you can not remember where you saved your private key or mnemonic or a character is missing that grants you access to the wallet.
1167  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Security Should Be Your First Target as a Newbie on: October 23, 2023, 05:46:14 AM
I think this applies to everyone, and I have noticed one problem that comes with crypto in general... most users never want to DYOR on best security practices, like not clicking  on unknown links especially for the cyber social, don't share private keys with anyone unless they are your spouse or something...and we never want to go into details to know of what to look for when it comes to choosing a wallet (either going for custodial or non custodial wallets and their pros and cons), could it be the bad habits we pick up of not reading manuals in real life and out of the box we believe we can figure it out as we go and ignore all the research required Roll Eyes

So I am sorry if I have too much emphasis on the term newbies even though that is not what I mean in reality,  since security is everyone and we should all take it seriously at all times.
Newbie here means-Fresh and straight out of the fiat world Cool
1168  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Bitcoin In Bullish or Bearish Trend? on: October 22, 2023, 10:46:31 PM
At the moment it's neither in a Bullish or Bearish Trend as the current gains we seeing from Bitcoin are a false positive that was caused by a rumour of the Bitcoin spot ETF being approved, but seems we still going with the flow as markets haven't backed down from this temporary momentum...but sooner or later I expect price to consolidate and reflect the real price of BTC. So if  you plan to buy try buy at a discounted price not a premium as price will retract before going up again.

So, what is your perspective: Do you believe we are currently in a bear market, or is this merely a manipulation to discourage some individuals from Bitcoin?

I would say its a bit of everything, though the manipulation stands out as this is what has lead to the bullishness after the fake news  Roll Eyes but it's good to see what to expect on e the approval comes in.

I wonder if hackers are getting more creative or  we the users are getting more alert and informed on all these kind of data breaching methods these guys are using..and good to know you didn't fall for this attempt which would have been more damaging to your community.

I observed a growing trend whereby the administration and  moderators of various groups are the target of scammers.
Obviously trying to hijack their accounts so that they can spread their malware using an administrator/mod account  without the telegram bots flagging or deleting any malicious content sent from these accounts...

If there is one part about crypto trading most users don't really talk about is the Altcoin market manipulation!!!

The fact that Altcoins have very little liquidation on most of these exchanges we know, makes them easy to manipulate if you own a lion's share of coins...and knowing this information should have saved you and made you some profits!! Anyway , incase  you still trading
alts  you want to be taking out profits at any given chase unless it's Bitcoin you can hold a winning trade till take profit.

1173  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think? Selling all or not on: October 22, 2023, 04:42:46 PM
I think it's fair to say that everyone has their own market fears or tolerance in regards to long term holding, if you can't take a simple red candle then I don't think holding for a long time is your style and taking profits at the first bull run is okay...then there those that can buy the dip and just say Bitcoin see you after 5 years and look away these will block out all noise and hodl without any fear and these usually are the big boys(whale's)…

But at the end of the day everyone is entitled to what works for them without the need to have panic attacks.

1175  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Low cost but effective solutions to gambling addiction on: October 22, 2023, 02:11:36 PM
One of the solutions which is recommended by most gamblers on this forum for gambling addiction is "Therapy" .
Unfortunately with therapy, usually it's not the person that needs it that requests for it which makes it a waste of time and money!!!

Fyi we have several success stories of people fighting gambling addiction without having to see a therapist, which tells me it starts with the user identifying it and then doing something about it... someone else doing it for you never yeilds positive results...besides the cause of the addiction needs to be identified if this is to be corrected... otherwise people still go back to these bad habits with time .

What are the other low cost but very effective solutions to gambling addiction. And typically how long will it take before the addict starts to feel more in control and less withdrawal symptoms?
Will totally appreciate your responses. Thanks.
Get free help from people who have fought it and am certain they will be always be more than willing to help, also resources on most of our social media platforms is very much available  to teach a user how to go about addiction and just takes on to do the research...

As of timeframe to get it under control, it all depends on how willing the gambler is ready to put into the fight .

is there any safe ways out there to get 10-15 % ANY return rate ?
If this is in line with trading, I don't think we can make this ROI safely as several unforeseen circumstances can happen and risk is always going to be there..

But for some kind of consistent profits, staking can be considered as an option, another option is getting into business with some  gambling platforms that can equally pay you a decent Return on capital for providing liquidity to them and pay you a returner..also let's not forget very few will give high ROI as they too are in business to make money .
1177  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can 1 satoshi be worth $1 in the future? on: October 22, 2023, 06:38:37 AM
The minimum TX fee for Bitcoin is one satoshi. Now, imagine if market prices keep going up until 1 BTC is worth $100m. This means 1 satoshi will be worth $1 (USD). Do you think there's a possibility this will happen in the future?
Bitcoin has proven itself over the years raising from a non valuable asset to becoming among the most sought after cyber assets and most talked about digital assets...
At this point I think keeping an open mind to many possibilities is encouraged as Bitcoin moved from being worthless**for lack of a better term*** to being super valuable so that 1satoshi to 1usd is very much possible, though this means transaction fees could be negatively affected as we could be paying more...maybe less in terms of quantity.

If Blockchain capacity remains low, this could be a real pain in the head for the average person using BTC on a daily basis. I know such a prediction is insane, but if there's one thing I've learned about crypto is that nothing is impossible.

Thoughts? Huh
Impossible is an understatement and you are right to say it this way!

If those price predictions come to be true, what will break or build the crypto economy will heavily depend on the transaction fees, if tx fees follow the path of the high BTC price to charge higher fees on users this makes it unattractive to use and users could migrate to Altcoins which is something I wouldn't like to see .
1178  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin for everyone? on: October 22, 2023, 05:57:12 AM
I am asking this because not everyone has made tangible profit for holding. Just like myself I end up selling at a loss most times just to solve a problem. Some might be lucky to buy at a low rate and within few weeks or months the price just pumps to their favour.
You make it sound like Bitcoin is meant for everyone to hodl which is the wrong message to the outside world!!
If you use it solely for investments then it's acceptable to hodl , otherwise you can use Bitcoin simply as a medium of exchange (currency) to have access to goods and services or trying to avoid giving out your personal information if you were to use your bank card.

This kept me wondering if Bitcoin is actually for every one or it is a scheme for selected individuals..
I honestly don't think it's for everyone, especially if you having total control of it then you need to have about of common sense to protect your coins and need to be in the know when it comes to navigating the cyberworld.. probably the best for Bitcoin are the millenials Roll Eyes
1179  Economy / Economics / Re: Bangladesh economy facing headwinds on: October 21, 2023, 08:30:03 PM
In addition to what has been said, Bangladesh is a low population country
Is this a typo that was meant to read high population, because my google search tells me this is a country with ~170 million people and in the world of business a high population is a good population, unless the tax system has failed to collect taxes to support it.



Bangladesh is limping because of their growing friendship with China and also due to government's failure to provide alternative sources of income to the citizens.

~snip~

They should learn from Srilanka!
Several countries got in trouble with the Chinese loans as Corona and all the lockdowns made several countries unproductive for quite sometime which lead to some countries like Srilanka to default and surrender some key assets but I don't believe Bangladesh will go through the same as China has be advised to take a much lenient approach... perhaps a BRICS deal could save them.

For as long as you have a device that is logged into telegram, this SMS is actually a code sent to your actual logged-in account in form of a pm to prevent unauthorized access and is never sent to the actual number unfortunately.

Btw tried to register for a new telegram account and SMS never comes through and I went the extra mile to see if a solution is available on YouTube, and judging from the number of videos providing a potential solution this is a common problem..

Those clear storage memory, enable permissions unfortunately don't work ..

Your best shot at this is getting in touch with support,  good luck.
