In actual sense, no one can tell you where Bitcoin price is headed exactly. At a time like this, most people will tell you it's upward bound because of the effect of its halving in 2024. That event is just around the corner and if by now Bitcoin hasn't dumped, it simply means it's going to take a very ominous FUD to drag it down. I don't see that happening. I'm optimistic at the moment that price will shoot up instead of going down. If you're waiting at $25,000 level to get in, you may get lucky or not. However, it's better not to miss the bus than miss it. If I were you (while waiting for it to get to $25k) I would DCA on it.

Exactly the point I buttressed there. Reading and all that are mere theories. Trading is essentially practical, not theory. This is why most people who talk about trading with all the razzmatazz never get to excel making profit because they don't have a good handle on trading. It's like a medical doctor who's good at book work but never gets to perform surgeries. His mindset won't be like one who has been performing surgeries all years. This is why I criticize those who think trading is a shortcut to making it big. It's never. It requires practical hardwork and patience.

OP's moniker (idkwhatimdoinghere4039) is indeed a very hilarious but revealing one. Truly, "I Don't Know What I'm Doing Here" doesn't know what's happening here. What do you actually mean by idkwhatimdoinghere4039

Someone asked you what you meant by "dirty Bitcoin," and you're asking them to meet up with you on Telegram or receive external links. That's not a great strategy to win your arguments.

With the few years of experience I've garnered in trading, I'm of the opinion that those who jump up and down on social media brandishing one paid signal group, articles, books or the other aren't actually profitable. They're mere marketers. Those who trade for a living don't have time for such unnecessary involvement on daily basis.

Talking about those who think they can be self sufficient by solely learning on their own, my word to them is that they will easily and quickly burn out. In trading, no man is an island on his own. We need the knowledge of others to know where we truly stand. Cross fertilization of ideas is needed to help proper one further in life, trading especially.

Even though reluctantly, it still escaped you to acknowledge that this forum provides an avenue through which posters get paid for posting. I don't think Reddit does that. To be frank, there aren't a handful of sites that do what Bitcointalk does. It provides us knowledge free of charge and we still get paid through signature campaigns just for sharing ideas, knowledge and gossips. This forum has indeed helped (still helping) a lot of families out financially, whether directly or indirectly. We shouldn't jettison that.

At high school we were taught in economics the crucial part transportation plays in both the lives of man and his agricultural produce. These are things we see in the open. It's not rocket science to know it. That's why the least thing that affects transportation also tampers with the cost of living and its standard. It's a given that whenever there's an increase in the pump price of PMS, cost of living in general flies up. It begins with whatever that's sold in the market. Fix electricity supply and transportation you would've solved half of man's basic needs.

We know that forex trading existed long before the discovery of cryptos and Meta4 was the in-thing then. That explains it. MT5 is a new discovery and an update on MT4. So, it's expected that most forex brokers are already hooked up on that platform. I've also see a broker that has Mt4 and Mt5 platforms. It's a matter of choice, I think.

That's the way of criminal brokers and we've them a lot in FX. The advantage FX trading has over cryptos is that such brokers can be reported to regulatory bodies if you've solid proof against them or you drag them to www.forexpeacearmy.com (FPA) which they dread. I once took a broker to FPA and won my case against the broker.

That simply emphasizes the aphorism – Failure is a bastard. People only want to be associated with success and not failure. Others saw your uncle's success as an achievement they could tap into after they must've shown skepticism while your uncle was starting off with his plan.

It's almost assured that it will happen, except something very unusual disrupts the Bitcoin circle before then. Next year is halving, it's a price chase from there till 2025. I believe Bitcoin will do above $120k in its next all time high expected in 2025.

Oh, I thought I was the lonely one with such a thought.

I believe ETH has better utility than what Bitcoin offers. It has advanced this industry more than Bitcoin and every other alts. Let's not even go into its contract utility which Bitcoin doesn't have. However, I think what seemed to have given Bitcoin that edge is the pseudonym anonymity of ownership and its decentralized nature. These two have endeared it to a very strong and committed community. It's the fan base that has given Bitcoin the value of attraction.

Exactly my thought, and to even think OP hasn't been around these past days after opening this thread makes it all amusing that they aren't even reading here. It behooves the moderators to lock this thread up now.

Oh mine! I'm not one to easily say someone's posts are shitposts but I've to say it here on that Kalson9's thread. I'm trying to unread what I read in the OP there. Like you asked, what indeed, was the OP trying to achieve with that? Total nonsense and I think such deserves to be taken off by the mods. Perhaps that's how best that user writes because I quickly ran through their other posts and there isn't any difference in their sentence construction.

Even though the court ruling favoured XRP, it didn't move as expected. I had expected that it would crush $1 after the ruling but it couldn't and that's disappointing by my judgment. Perhaps what caused its slow pace could be that there are still some other issues it has to settle in court. Talking about its ATH, getting there again will depend on the coming alt bull rally expected after Bitcoin halving. In summary, and from all indication, XRP continues to be behind expectations. It hasn't been fantastic like its counterparts – LTC, ETH, BTC and other top ranked alts.

How you guys only get to locate this forum after you've been "supposedly" scammed beggars explanation and the only explanation that best suits is that this isn't a genuine newbie account. Two things are involved here – 1. It's either the OP just made up the story to court sympathy or 2, they're ashamed to post from their main account.

I mean, for crying out loud, how do you invest in something a random person online introduced to you without doing due diligence on it? With a simple click on search engine should give you an idea what that site is all about. Well, I know I sound harsh on this and that's because we've hammered severally on something like this here. Verify first before investing, always.

Your friend did the right thing on second thought by selling his property. You can't have a disposable property and wait to suffer in abject poverty. However, I hope your friend didn't sell for some frivolous stuff. I won't sell my property for anything other than emergency or investment. If your friend sold so he could feed himself, he will still sell again to continue feeding. That shouldn't be a cogent reason.

On the other hand, it's a thing with me anyway, I never can bring myself to accept buying a friend's property off them when I know they're selling just to raise cash to make ends meet. If they're disposing the property to create more room in their space or replacing such with modern ones, I can buy. If they're disposing them because they want to move over to a different country I can buy. Other than that, I won't. But I can raise them some cash even if it's not all they're asking for as loan (which I won't be keen on asking them to refund me thereafter.) What are friends for.

www.babypips.com is a nice place to start the basics. It was part of the sites I slept on during my formative years in trading. I strongly recommend it. However, whether reading babypips, other resource materials or not; it still boils down to practicals. If you read all you want but don't demo trade or back test whatever information and strategies you've assimilated from books or sites it amounts to nothing. Practice is the main thing in trading. You need to burn the midnight oil doing that. Trading is a serious business career.

Again, once you think you've found your footing in demo trading and want to go live; learn Money Management (MM) and don't ever force trades. Let the trades come to you. If trades delay or don't come, act like nothing wrong happened. No one needs to be trade every day to be profitable.

I guess it's a global thing. I even thought the OP was talking about the situation in Nigeria when I saw the thread, not knowing they were talking about Europe. The rate of inflation in Nigeria is double figure and it's hitting the citizens real hard. The country hasn't had it this bad until with the new administration in place. Prices of goods aren't predictable within 24hrs after knowing what prices were. They change on hourly basis so to say.

I guess it's about time people started saving their money in stable coins than in fiat, if they can't keep it in Bitcoin at a time like this.

Now, that's a wrong conclusion you've there that people don't lose in some types of trading. That's not true. You lose in all, even in Spot trading. As conservative as we believe Spot trading is, one can also lose. What do you think bagholding is? If any coin/token one buys gets rugpull or worthless in the market, isn't that loss? Of course, it's.

To be honest with you, I try as much as I can not to look at Dogecoin as a memecoin. The dev may have created it as fun coin but it has utility. Payment with Doge is as fast as the speed of light. It's the fastest coin I've used for payment. Bitcoin isn't anywhere miles close to it. That's even besides Dogecoin's use in most casinos for gambling. When we talk of memecoins/tokens, we should be looking at worthless coins that merely thrive on hype and nothing else. Those ones are complete shitcoins.

I think it was more of free money for people than the actual sales on the launchpad as I read online of its airdrop. The airdrop was specifically for Binance users who had to apply by enlisting their emails and address on some private wallets like Metamask and TW.

Yes, I know memecoins are not stressful to create and push to the market. However, the point I made there is that there's often a mad demand for them during a bull season because of their cheap prices. Noob investors would mistake these low prices and their low market cap for an indication that there's more room for growth and then buy in. During bear season most investors are meticulous as they're disgruntled investing. Every cent counts during a bear season. Investors are more skeptical and careful during a bear season than they're during a bull season.
