No, he won't want to buy Bitcointalk, never.
Because bitcointalk is not a fancy platform to build connections and shill your posts to walls, notifications of other users who are in or not in your connection/ friend/ follower list.
It is different than social media platforms like Facebook or Twitter when your notifications will be spammed with many statuses and tweets from others.
Bitcointalk is not a place for Elon Musk to play with his jokes that he always loves to do.

Maybe for the current season, Arsenal and Manchester City are equal in winning every game and this is superior to Arsenal, when they play later there is a possibility that Arsenal can win I see that potential because their squad is indeed solid and that is what makes the Gunners only have 1 defeat compared to Manchester City.
This season has great potential for Arsenal and Arteta is credited with doing this if they can get to the end, hopefully, that happens to give Arsenal the dream of lifting a trophy again.
Arsenal are growing and we can not deny that they already proved they are strong mentally enough to fight with not only opponents but also with pressure from fan expectation, from title competitor like Manchester City and from social media. Arteta and Arsenal have a very great opportunity in this season because with unbelievable troubles of Liverpool, it looks like the title competition in this season is a dual race between Arsenal and Manchester City. If nothing big change in rest of season, Arsenal will only have to race with Manchester City and it reduces pressure on them. Their chance to win Premier League is bigger too because World Cup can drain energy of players who join it and no doubt Manchester City has many players called for World Cup playing. If you look at Manchester city's current strength (before the FIFA world cup) I think Manchester City will be superior. But after I searched about the number of Manchester City players who competed in the World Cup. My thoughts about Manchester City have changed a little because it turns out that Manchester City is the 2nd largest contributor of players from a team in the premier league, namely 15 players. and the first position is Manchester United who contributed 16 players to the World Cup.
Manchester City are trying to change their tactics and they try to score goals in much simpler ways than in previous seasons when they did not have a world-class striker like Haaland. The number of players they contribute for World Cup to different teams, would be a fear for Pep Guardiola. World Cup is a biggest tournament every four years and players will play very seriously including bad fouls and tackles that would cause many injuries. And the real concern is when the FIFA World Cup is over. Of course the Manchester City players who returned after defending their respective countries in the World Cup were mentally and physically affected a little. of course they will need a little vacation or rest. and maybe even some players could have suffered injuries after the World Cup. And those things are likely to have a lot of impact on Manchester City.
They only can hope for the best at their club headquarter. At least, one of good news for them is Haaland does not join World Cup and he will have one month to rest and fully recover from his injury. |

Arsenal have led the standings for most of the season, but plenty of neutrals insist that Manchester City are favourites to win the title. I think the table is still very open and any team can easily climb over the other. Tottenham sits in fourth, while Newcastle are the surprise package in third, now unbeaten in ten games. Manchester United and Chelsea are not too far behind and are building under new managers. It’s just the first half of the season and I think any team can win it, not just Manchester City and Arsenal.
If it is about bet, Manchester City is a more favorite and safer choice for gamblers. They won most of Premier League latest seasons so it is safer to choose them. In addition, they have better player quality than Arsenal from official first squad to alternative players on bench. They have more experience than Arsenal in Premier League title race. However, if you are not a gambler but a neutral fan only, you will more prefer to see Arsenal as a champion at the season ending. If Arsenal win the league, it shows the beauty of football again that money is not all to win trophies. Before the league started Liverpool is the champion candidate because last season Liverpool performance was outstanding and can reach to 3 final matches from different competitions so that's why most of them has been voted for Liverpool because they hoping Liverpool will continue their good performance
But a lot of things changed in the summer, with a departure of Sadio Mane and his surprising transfer to Bayern Munich. The transfer and appearance of Darwin Nunez can not help Liverpool to cover a contribution of Mane in their squad. Furthermore their players have so many injuries in this season and it damages their strength as well as player resource. It is very harmful to achieve good results when they have to play at both Premier League and Champions League. More terrible, in this season, schedules are more tightly than usual because World Cup is hosted in middle of season for a first time in history. |

I am a beginner in bitcoin and crypto, I want to ask all of you, do you have to invest in crypto with small capital or large capital?
When you start something that relates to money and capital, you should start it with a small part of your whole capital. Because it's very likely that most of us, including you, will fail at first attempts. Therefore, having other parts of your capital for later attempts is not a bad idea. in my opinion, if our invest in crypto for beginners and invest with large capital, it seems that if you fail, you will experience big losses, but if you make a profit, it will definitely be big, so what do you think?
Think of risk first. Think of how to protect your initial capital is important too. Don't over think about profit and try to bet all your capital because you think you will get big profit if you bet all your capital at one time. |

I bolo Newcastle or Tottenham also have a chance to win the title, if they can perform well and continue to perform well consistently. But it is very difficult. Because every team in Premier League is strong. It is very difficult to win every match consistently.
Newcastle and Tottenham are more realistic if they aim at top four in this season. Clubs under top four at the moment like Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea are very ready to jump into top four if either Newcastle or Tottenham lose too many points. Just to narrow thing's down, it all goes to Liverpool, Chelsea and also the staggering performance of Tottenham Hotspur who has been my favorites initially but everything seem to have been zig zags for them so far.
Liverpool has some few players representing the FIFA World Cup it'll be a good time for Jurgen Klopp to get new set of players in the next half of the season.
Both Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham have many players are reserved to play in World Cup. Amongst them, I only think Liverpool and Chelsea especially Chelsea will likely have new players in January transfer. Tottenham will accept players they have but their squad is good enough already. Liverpool have many injured players and if they come back, Liverpool don't actually need to buy new players in January. Of course World Cup will bring a lot of issues to Liverpool and Klopp does not like this tournament. It's Good Thiago Alcantara wasn't called up he's been a very important player used to inject the plans and tactics of Klopp.
It's a good news for Klopp and Liverpool because Thiago is very important for their midfield especially ball possession ability. Thiago did not have important role in Euro 2020 and he was not chosen for World Cup not only because of his injury and limited appearance in this season. |

If you do not want to download the whole blockchain and still want to run full node, you can go for pruning which requires less than 6 gigabytes. But the disadvantage is that you have to resynchronize your wallet with blockchain if you import wallet file (wallet.dat) that has data synchronized that is not done on your prune node before. With BitcoinCore prune node, you will have technical trouble too if your node, your wallet is not shutdown appropriately. Such as if your electricity supply is lost suddenly and when you re-open your wallet, restart your node, you will have issue. You won't have the technical issue by electricity shutdown if you run a Bitcoin full node. It saves lot of time if you use a full node, than a prune node. |

Mikel Arteta leading the gunners to their role path in the premier league is quite amazing and the fans hailed him alot. It's something we were not expecting soon enough, who would thought that this season, we have arsenal for the contender of the premier league title race, not only that, they're ranking first on the league table. Sometimes I wonder how they use their strategy to beat tough teams like liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur. Let's say it's luck for them, let's wait till they meet their end manchester city.
Generally Arsenal have been playing very good and their standing so far is well-deserved. To win a high competitive league like Premier League, Arsenal must have both conditions: collecting as many points as possible from average and weak teams; avoid losing as least as possible in big matches with direct competitors; earning as many points as possible from big clashes. So far they have been doing all these very well. There are 5 points different left from defending champion which I think is still possible Man City got 5th title for this session. Arsenal is quite explosive from the beginning, they start this session with confidence and cohesive, but we don't expect too much Arsenal will get the title, because I feel they are still more unstable like Man City, I feel like only euphoria from them, which can have much change until break January 2023. I just feel Arsenal will stop on 2nd and be a champions in 2024.
Manchester City have better player quality than Arsenal. I am not doubt that Manchester City's players and coach have more experience than Arsenal's players and coach. It is a very big advantage for Manchester City in this race which is supported further by their good substitute players on bench. Manchester City have better alternative players than Arsenal which can help them in a long season. Erik ten hag is probably one of the cause of Ronaldo staying on the bench, imagine a world first class player been turn to a bench warmer in united and it's totally unfair because Erik once told the news how Ronaldo will suits in his game plan for United and even promise him enough game playing time
Both Ten Hag and Ronaldo are responsible for all these. I think it is unfair to say Ronaldo is a cause and Ten Hag is not. They are both causes of it and now they are going toward the ending for all these. Even this ending is bad for Ronaldo in Manchester United and it is not what he imagined when he agreed to move from Juventus to Manchester United. |

I keep my crypto folio on goodle drive and partial on one drive.
Do you have control on Google Drive or One Drive? It is a similar story to "Not your keys, not your coins". You try to backup your wallet, save your keys, your wallet seeds but unfortunately you ended by storing it in Google Drive or OneDrive which you don't actually control. What if Google Drive or OneDrive have serious data leak, hacks, etc. Why do you not trust exchanges but trust Google or Microsoft which are centralized corporations too? If you want to save your backup, save it offline, in a vault which is against fire, water, pressure ... You can write your key / seed down and store it offline, safely and secretly. |

When my friends started cryptocurrency few years ago, they seriously engaged in trading, but I knew nothing about trading then, I was just learning from them
Are they good at trading? In trading, it is not easy to win in long run. Even you win big in bull runs, if you are not good at management, you will lose all profit and even capital in bear market. If they are not good at trading and you learned from them, it's bad. during this last bull run, some of my friends that started trading, decided to quit there job just because they believe the money they are making from trading is sufficient for them and they don’t have to be stressing themselves going to office everyday since they can make enough money from cryptocurrency without going out.
Maybe they thought they are genius after getting profit from market in bull run. They did not know that it's zero sum game and they will lose it very easily in bear market. Two years, 2021 and 2022 especially this year, proves that. |

Two most common ban reasons are - Plagiarism - Ban evasion Usually the first reason is plagiarism that causes ban on other alt accounts with ban evasion. Signature Campaign Guidelines (read this before starting or joining a campaign)First offence: 7 days
Second offence: 14 days
Third offence: 30 days
Fourth: Permanent ban
Your first ban is your first warning. If you have to be banned for a fourth time it is permanent and you will no longer be allowed to participate on the forum under any accounts. Note: If you are banned on one account then you are not allowed to post under any accounts you own for the duration of your ban. The only exception to this rule is Meta where you can discuss the circumstances of your ban if you wish to do so but anywhere outside of that sub will be considered ban evasion and will get your ban doubled, but it is generally best to just patiently wait out your ban and improve your posts on return and hopefully no further bans will be needed.
Warning: Anyone caught copying other users' posts or plagiarising content from elsewhere on the web will be immediately permabanned. You shouldn't need a warning to know that this isn't acceptable under any circumstances.
Unofficial list of (official) Bitcointalk.org rules, guidelines, FAQ25. Ban evasion (using or creating accounts while one of your accounts is banned) is not allowed.[e]
33. Posting plagiarized content is not allowed.[e]

The causes of collapses recent months since May, started with Terra crash is a wrong usage of a bad technology, DeFi. We know DeFi 2.0 was very hot since 2020 but most of us did not realize a fact behind DeFi 2.0. It is a perfect tool for Ponzi activities and it make Ponzi operations are more easily and it covers the truth about Ponzi activities by using a term DeFi.
If we think deeply, we would ask answers like where are money come from for DeFi platforms? And where are money for them to pay to users in staking profit, in annual percent yields?
It is clearly a ponzi model and APY is not real. You can not get that promised APY by staking your cryptocurrency in one year long. Your cryptocurrency will very likely lose its value, even in bull market and not restricted in bear market.

so there are no reliable stablecoins for keeping your reserves without risks of loss? fully backed centralized stablecoins like USDC, BUSD and USDT could be easily frozed on request from regulators and other government agencies. partly backed and algorithmic stablecoins like USDD, Neutrino USD and USDX could lose peg during bear markets. anyone can look at current situation on stablecoins: https://www.coingecko.com/en/categories/stablecoinsmany of them don't feel good:  Many of stable coins in the list, on the market were launched in past two years. They have not been tested enough by customers and market especially bear market with serious negatively conditions. Latest depegs of newborn stable coins are bad for anyone who owned it in their portfolios but it is good for the market generally. Because bad stable coins should be eliminated from the market by depegs or similar serious market testings with real conditions of bear market. As I stated my opinion, I would prefer to choose fiat currencies if I want to store my capital too long rather than choose stable coins. Especially I never touch newborn stable coins. |

Let's return to why the Indian authority were able to freeze those accounts and related bitcoins?
Because it belongs to centralized platforms and those guys did not have non-custodial wallets so that they were easily frozen by government. The India government only have to put pressure on the platform team and froze those accounts. They can have solid or not solid reasons with their demand but if you don't store your bitcoins in non custodial wallets, you are very vulnerable to governmental activities.
Money laundering is bad and should be handled well, I support it but let's use this news to consider using non custodial wallets.

Solana actually has a more active blockchain in general compared to Tron despite the network downtimes. But yea, USDC is far more adopted than USDT on Solana. (source: Jupiter(Solana) and Sun.io(TRX) trading volumes)
I don't choose Solana or TRON network especially Solana that shown its under capacity to handle high transaction demands on its network. Some downtimes occured and caused effects and loses for NFT investors on Solana. I don't discuss about NFT projects here because they are not good with their origins but Solana is responsible for the network technical problems. Their developers can not blame that NFT projects have falls because of their bad ideas, bad models, bad use cases. Congestions then downtimes on Solana contribute a lot to panic and falls of NFT projects. About USDT, if I want to move it, I will pick Tron and after I finish it, I will convert USDT TRC20 to BUSD on Binance Smart Chain. If I don't use BUSD, I will choose fiat currency. |

Just like we warn investors about risking what the can afford to lose the same goes to day traders on centralised exchanges leaving the amount that is worth losing on a single exchange.
Very few people can absorb advice, warning and practice good preventive activities. They usually skip warnings and try to learn from their experience but unfortunately learning cost by themselves is not small. Day trading has never given passive income since it's origin so why risk so heavily, it is of no use waiting to move funds monthly it can be done as soon as a certain target is achieved or at the end of every trade depending on the account size.
Storing your coin on centralized exchanges too long is very bad and FTX is an example. If you trade daily, you have to store your coins on exchanges and it is a beginning of nightmare. People are more favorite to use centralized exchanges than decentralized exchanges because they want to have higher trading volume, less margin of price changes (don't like high slippage on decentralized exchanges), lower trading fees (don't have to spend fee for each trading transactions by swaps). At the end, they take high risk with centralized exchanges. Last but not least, trading daily is very difficult to get profit. |

@Trofo if Haaland is fully fit then he’ll definitely score but Jesus hasn’t scored for a while now, hence maybe in this week’s fixture we’ll finally see him score a goal or two. Furthermore Kane seems to be tired so I wonder if he’ll be given a rare day off, and even if he’s in the squad I expect little from him as he needs rest before he can contribute for the team. These last matches before the World Cup will be very stressful for national coaches. Any injury from one important player will break their plans for the tournament a lot. Unfortunately, national coaches can not demand club coaches to use or not to use any player. They only can wait and wish that nothing bad will happen with important players. Kane does not have too good performance in this season but he is still an important player (as a striker and play maker) for England team. Haaland will not play in the World Cup and with a few minutes to play in the last match, it is possible to be he start in this match from beginning. Jesus has a decreasing form after a few early good matches for Arsenal and I don't expect him to score goals in this weekend. |

Most important, it is a Proof of Work coin
Other important factors are
- It is decentralized and is not controlled by a single person, entity, company ... so it is impossible to see one person or one company can put Bitcoin at risk by using it as a collateral for an exchange, an company and face with liquidation that results in market panic
- It can not be created more than 21M bitcoins in total supply. No more minting from thin air. Impossible to change its total supply to more than 21M.
Terra, FTT fiascos happened because of over minting from thin air, bad risk management and very centralized ownership and powerful control that caused terrible centralized decisions.

A lot of topics about Bitcoin logo Evolution of the Bitcoin LogoBitcoin logoBitcoin logo (another topic) I have to quote this one The second version is used until nowadays with a modification in the background color, from the color in that version to orange. Rarely seen, but sometimes you can see exchanges or platforms that are still using the second version with the old color (not orange). |

There are also a lot of people saying that if Binance acquires FTX exchange the hole must not be really huge that can Binance afford it, because if FTX exchange will fall and for sure the entire market will also get affected and that also guarantees that there will be some losses from Binance too but I believe they already calculated for different scenarios.
Binance announced that they withdrawn from the acquisition and it is understandable. FTX is too big and it has to obey US regulations. We know that since the trade war between the USA. and China, US. regulators are more careful and stricter with Chinese companies and companies that have Chinese board members. Binance have problems with it definitely and perhaps their withdrawal from the non-binding deal is partially because of US. regulations. Overall, the downfall of FTX exchange is not a win for Binance or other exchanges.
Binance will have less strong competitors but you are right that in short and medium terms, it is not good for all people, all entities that are engaging in cryptocurrency industry. Lot of fear will appear and won't disappear soon. In addition, more regulations will be launched after all. |

After analyzing the financials, Binance is not buying FTX, so what can we expect from FTX token?
It's time to stay outside of the fiasco. The lesson from Terra is still new enough. Don't jump in if the fiasco has yet finished. It is not too late to jump in because after a fiasco ending, there are so many conditions must appear to result in good recoveries. Jumping in too early will put you in high risk and catching a falling knife is not smart. For CZ, this has always been a power move, and the goal has never been to help the industry, but to obliterate competitors. Here, there has been an astounding amount of market manipulation.
It is not a gift for CZ and Binance. They are very smart and worked carefully and smartly. Two bear markets did not kill them and it is a very good quality testing for them. They got two certifications from 2018 bear market and 2022 bear market. As long as FTX Token exists, there will be flooring. It's all about trust! Now is a shaky time for the crypto world. The crypto space will only suffer as a result of this. We will get to the other side.
Trust is decreasing after fiascos of Terra and FTX. I did felt funny when people naively and automatically believe in Venture Capitals and big exchanges. They filter and choose new cryptocurrency projects that they believe are good and potential simply because there are big backers, VCs, exchanges behind. |
