In my country also many who do not know bitcoin. But I still explain as best I can. They mostly still don't trust bitcoin and blockchain technology. I'm sure there are still many who are not familiar with bitcoin. I also believe that one day bitcoin will be more accepted and more popular.
If you want people to listen to you then change the way you present or say something if it didn't work in the start. "How you say something matters more than what you say" that's human psychology. I wouldn't go into details because it's very easy to exploit people if you pull their right strings, everyone can be exploited including me (which I wouldn't recommend and is morally wrong) Tell those people - Future is cashless, You don't need to rely on Bank's network to make a bitcoin transaction, You don't need a bank to store Bitcoin, Bitcoins are stored on your computer or ledger wallet ~~Explains ledger wallet~~ Tell them honestly how volatile the bitcoin marketplace is if they're here to make a quick buck after being new then they'll most likely be a victim of a Ponzi or lose their money trading on 10x leverage on the trading exchange because it's tempting to trade bitcoin and people who're new into this space most of the time are victims of Hype. |

I guess most of you have noticed the rise in the number of banks and Financial commissions and Governments in different countries announcing bans on crypto purchases using banks, crypto exchanges, and in some case Bitcoin mining crackdowns.
Governments have banned bitcoin seeing the popularity of crypto as they consider it a threat to their governess if all people invest in bitcoin & crypto. Once they will realize it that they can't stop bitcoin, they will unban it and it will be so bullish for bitcoin. As i told many times, this is the best time for accumulation. Anything under 40K is a good buy for bitcoin in mid-term / long-term. I don't think every government is smart enough to know about bitcoin instantly as they did and banning it or at least trying to ban it and only the ignorant people were the victim of this fear caused by the government to panic sell bitcoin and another crypto, and then government buys a chunk or crypto and removes the ban and people cannot complain about it, this is quite retarded and proves the point "A fool is bound to lose the money and continues losing it without learning anything" What I also think the governments of different countries were guided to take this action against crypto just like news channels were, I'm sure now no one will dare to call Bitcoin a bubble-like some used to, and the reason being 'they're either paid to or they're ignorant' both reduces their survival chances in this world. |

The issue of Trust is not only evident in relationships, it is applicable in our daily endeavours. People are more committed to system they trust than the one they don't trust. Even in this forum, you can easily do business with someone with a positive trust than one with a negative trust.
As the saying goes "wherever ones treasure is, there his soul is". So, in this article we would try to establish if ;
1. If people have fallen out of Trust with the Traditional banking system.
2. If people can trust BTC than banks.
The thing is you cannot completely removing the Banking system without causing huge damage to the economy of a country and multiple sectors of income sources. I'm not saying to trust the banking system and let them have their way every time, if you don't fight for what if yours in this world including money then there are many who'll take that from you either by hook or crook, the banking system is no exception. Bitcoin cannot transact money instantly like UPI payments and multiple instant payments to locals so that's a drawback, even if you pay with bitcoin you have to rely on the security of the transaction which is none if the other person double-spends while the shop-keeper is waiting for 1 confirmation and it never came, In the banking system, you can at least file a case that your credit/debit card was used without your approval and you may get your money back but not in case of bitcoin, There're pros and cons in everything so it's better to find a balance in things that you use to get maximum output. |

Theymos wants the new forum software tested for security flaws. I think this is the primary hold up.
This shouldn't take 9 years... Actually yes 9 years is a lot of time even for testing, Maybe theymos hasn't made up his mind as to if there should be a new forum. This forum is already meeting all the needs of the users, most likely new forum will be for aesthetics to adapt to the needs of a new generation that sees eye candy first and information provided later. Some questions - Will the new forum replace the current forum, Will it share the database of this forum so that we wouldn't have to start our journey again? |

i disagree. you are completely ignoring second layer solutions
comparing the rbf feature with paypals reversability is also a wide stretch. i wouldn't count transactions in the mempool as final, that is what you basically also say. but no "honest" vendor should accept zero confirmation transactions anyway. or maybe there are some, willing to take the risk
Can you explain the second layer solution? Even if there’s a second layer solution you’re talking about then how will you fix double spend problem with unconfirmed transactions, which is unfixable because you’ll have to wait for 1 conf.. atleast and that will take a lot of time considering the queue of customers behind you waiting for you to make complete your payment, funny. |

Because most people dont have the access to internet and it is still not supported and accepted across the world. digital currency is still not being used bya most countries. but many companies are willing to invest to cryptocurrency like Tesla of Elon Musk. It lacks promotion and information on its technology. The government does not support because they cannot control it.
Most people also use currency just as a survival medium to be able to buy food, shelter, etc and they don't make a lot, unless there are stores that accept bitcoin in their local they will rarely care about using it, let alone knowing it. But when popular people like ElonMusk promote something and it's popular it's in news than alsoways consider things are going to get wild and this Hype will wipe out new people into that perticular space, crypto for example. |

— Let's have some fun.
I believe that the majority of the forum users want to see Bitcoin being globally adopted, including myself; I imagine people using it in their daily transactions for food, coffee etc. Lightning payments can tackle the scaling issue and the only thing left for Bitcoin to be used as a currency from the whole world is its mass usage. If the adoption rate increased so would the price's standability.
So, do you set a good example and pay with Bitcoin whenever you're able to or do you prefer not to spend your coins? I'll speak my personal view about this, in my country none of the merchants accept it and I rarely buy some hosting services from the internet. If they do accept it, I'll pay for it, but not because it satisfies me; it's just that I can't with PayPal. I'd prefer paying with PayPal for online services, because I may be scammed if they aren't popular.
Not sure why irreversibility is an advantage when you're paying an unknown person online. That's why I'd prefer having a third party for my online transactions.
What I think is just like PayPal has a function to reverse a transaction bitcoin has the same feature which is being able to Double spend any transaction which is RBF. So it's a necessity to wait for at least 1 confirmation when accepting bitcoin, especially the transaction that's using RBF, I'm not sure if transactions not using RBF can also be used to double-spend but I heard it is possible to. But waiting for a single confirmation in the traditional network of bitcoin will take at least 6-40 minutes, considering the minimum sat/B fee is paid for it to be included in the next block for sure, which is quite a hassle and you'll have to wait a lot if you're not in luck when using bitcoin to pay to a casual store or cafe, to fix this issue we can have apps that will pay directly to the store after using bitcoin to buy their credits, again you're using a third party to store your bitcoin in form of cash so it's not bitcoin completely but it's the only reason it will work. |

2-2 (full time)
Edit- My screenshot of bets placed " https://prnt.sc/1a1b7a6" Let's see if we win any Prizes from EuroMania2020 event  |

1-1 1-1 Who would've thought?  Congratulations to our winners: There had been games in the past where London & Denmark matches were ended in a draw in Full Time. And even in Extra time, the penalty that was given to London doesn't seem a good option from the Euro2020 officials. |

ridiculous... at very least it should be 5-3 (in case that penalties are considered as game score). No? Please can someone explain me why is 4-2 a winning result? Italy have now reached their 10th major tournament final (World Cup/Euros) - 1:1 regular time, 4:2 after penalties over Spain.
1:1 + 0:0 + 4:2 = 4:2? Oo Quote from: dainoran on July 06, 2021, 01:20:36 PM
1:1 (90 minutes) Quote from: Buchi-88 on July 06, 2021, 01:17:09 PM
1:1 after 90 minutes These 2 predictions are correct if you look at their score and Timing of Score 1st one in 90 minutes - Correct 2nd one after 90 minutes - Correct Now 3rd one Quote from: Prince Malik on July 06, 2021, 05:52:30 PM
4-2 This one is the final score which is taken from Penalty Shootout which disregards the previous goals made by both teams. Italy scored 4 penalty shots whereas Spain was only able to score 2 shots. Spain wasn't given the 5th chance to make a goal because it wouldn't have had made any difference!, but maybe the score could've been 4-3 if Spain scored the last shot but it was worthless from the Euro2020 game's point of view but maybe wasn't from Gambler's point of view, Rules are Rules anyways.
Now since you predicted 1-1 without any Statement whatsoever then it means if both teams scored 1 Out of 5 chances in the Penalty shootout then you would've won, if I'm getting it correct. Btw I wanna know what will happen if both teams scored the same Points in Penalty shootouts, does a new penalty shootout takes place after it or this score remains obsolete and new game is announced, i don't watch Soccer and only started watching since EURO2020. |

What about me??  You didn't mention the time like the other 2 did, If Total time or Extra time is not mentioned then the total score will count. |
