1241  Economy / Economics / Re: Idea and money are very important to investment. on: December 01, 2023, 08:03:57 PM
Idea and money work Viz vice. They are two paramount things that accomplished a business or investment, but note that each can stand on its own. For instance; You could have money yet no idea and you can have an idea but no money (capital), what is really important is you should at least have one. when you have money (Capital) but no idea (like the rich people who inherit wealth) you can ask people for idea or even employ people who have ideas but no money.
Or you can have idea but no money (capital) hence raise funds from volunteers and you will still be successful there are people who are will to invest in someone who has great ideas out there. but it's easy when you have both to be successful.


A person should be independent in regarding the investments plans.

If he really wants to invest in he has a better portfolio and want to gain his portfolio even he has all the resources then he must be independent in this case if he can really start a business with his own money.

But if a person who didn't have a good capital and he is frightened from losing the money then he may be Collab's with those who have some great ideas and who can make his challenge to the next level in this way.
I would love you to re-read what you wrote!

But in the main time, for anyone to make investment it doesn't matter the independence of the person but what is really required is the goal or the bigger picture, as far as there is an urge for wealth increment then the capital and the idea must come based on what I said earlier you don't need to have the capital before you start or you don't need to have the idea yourself before you make an investment.

From what I have learnt from @franky1 investment can only be made to an already existing idea or business so for anyone to invest you do need an already existing plan.
Developing a new idea is equally not investing but generating Capital.

Anonymity is what we always preach, not even social medias requires KYC except you have anything to do with monetization that will require such.

I have seen a very few people talk of KYC in the forum and I do really know why it's important to them including you.

But will surely say that it's not necessary except you have a plan of becoming the government which everyone is here pissed of.

The fact is everyone is responsible for their action and decision, you can't blame shitcoins for your failure or lack of knowledge. Your failure in shitcoin is approximately the success of the owners of the shitcoins, identifying the difference between shitcoin and Bitcoin should be a paramount duty of everyone going into crypto space.
you can't go into what you don't really know about and expect the best out of it. Shitcoins are solely for personal success of the creator not to be compared with Bitcoin a paradigm that has never fail since launched.
If any coin promises you success as bitcoin and you eventually you got convinced and invest in it then it's you cup of tea. The generalization in hate of crypto is absolutely as a result of lack of knowledge of what Bitcoin is and the difference between Bitcoin and every other coin that pose to have same characteristics as Bitcoin.
1245  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you see individual satoshi becoming valuable? on: December 01, 2023, 02:04:57 AM
As each halving is passing and this block reward decrease has started sounding like a big deal to me. Does anyone else also see individual satoshi becoming valuable in future?
This probably sounds similar to this thread Can 1 satoshi be worth $1 in the future? because the value you're talking about is probably price so it kinda similar to me.

An individual Satoshi can be valuable in future if only BTC1 Bitcoin can reach a solid amount of $100 Million dollars per Bitcoin according to an estimate by @who is John Gait
$1 million for a bitcoin makes 1 satoshi for 1¢. For 1 satoshi to be $1, one bitcoin must be worth 100 million. Smiley

What I think about all this going on including C.Ronaldo case is that, there is a shadow party somewhere. There is conspiracy to attack this exchange in order to affect something which I'm not sure of but I solely believe that the this guy's are trying to fight some thing which is secret to them.
Asking Christiano Ronaldo  pay $1 billion is outrageous, are they tryna bankrupt this guy?. Every single person that bought this NFT bought them to favour themselves so asking someone to pay for there mistake or problem is just stupid.

I don't buy the idea of storing seed phrases on cloud or anything that has to do with internet.
I developed this idea of writing it in a Bible, it's sound weird but in there nobody understands or even wants to read it the way it's place in the bible. I split it in 2 different bibles or books that even if it's keep with anyone the chance of reading such books is very low and I believe it's a better secured for me. The pattern of writing can be upside down or something but I just manipulate it.

But no matter how you wish to secure yours at least someone should be aware of your plans in case of unforseen circumstances.
1249  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: November 29, 2023, 10:45:56 PM

I don't agree to your assertion that it's not ideal to take off profits within the bull run like what's the essence of investing? Isn't it to make profits? So in a situation whereby an investor have achieved his major aim of investing which is to make profits so after selling off his bitcoins the next for him to do is to pause investing for sometime until the price begins to dip then he can start buying and holdling again till he aquires a reasonable amount or better still he apply the DCA till the price skyrockets again so that's what an experienced investor does.

You may have gotten alot of response on this but I will make some point clear to you, though the goal for some people on getting involved with Bitcoin might be for profit making but it is not ideal to sell off one's Bitcoin during the bull run as sim_card have said.
To buttress selling Bitcoin during bull run may not be a bad idea only if you have accumulated enough bitcoin, if you have enough bitcoin in your portfolio and you decide to buy on dips and sell during bull run it is more ideal so create a specific portfolio aside your original holding for the so called purpose of selling on bull run. for example if you DCA with a minimum of $50 monthly or weekly you can make and extra portfolio where you can buy on dips and sell during bull season with another $50 dollars that at any cost wouldn't affect you if lost in the process to buy as you have asserted but it will be completely wrong if you don't have a good portfolio and you practice the gambling of Bitcoin (buying on dips and selling when it skyrockets).
On this same vain it can't be advisable for any one to practice the method which you are suggesting that anyone should pause buying of Bitcoin if after selling and the market keep appreciating because of preventing loses, that is why it is always advisable to practice the DCA method that wait for a time which may probably come or may not come for you to buy again in the dips. Time waist for nobody that is the most reason why DCA is practically the best method because it prepares you for but the uppity or the dips at the same time.

In trading, making profits is not guaranteed all the time so accumulating for a very long period like 10 years as you stated may not really be an obtainable idea as the future is unpredictable no one knows how the fate of the coin might turn out due to some uncertainty that surrounds the stock coin market. Making accumulation for a very long period of time might even lead to losses because in the quest of hoping that the price will skyrocket then it suddenly starts dipping so it's really not ideal to accumulate for too long as no one can speculate or predict what it's future holds.
I might understand your point but I put it to you (Richbased) that you are completely wrong. Trading is a 50-50 game and/or gambling that is never advisable to anyone expect you are so good at it as a professional trader even as that it's still not advisable, you do not have a solid claim for disputing the fact that long term holding is not good.
Bitcoin as predicted has not reached it speculated price and as such you may be lucky enough to be among those who will be favoured with the uppity of the Bitcoin price as a result of long term holding. There is more chance of profiting with long-term holding that short term, infact a 99.99 chance of success for long term holding because after accumulating Bitcoin you will be prepared for but the upward movement of Bitcoin price and the dips at the same time. when you have a good portfolio or have accumulated enough bitcoin you cannot be affected by the price of Bitcoin at anytime because for sure Bitcoin can't go less than it has gone before and it has a guarantee that it will bounce back to a good price at any give time.
1250  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happen if Bitcoin shutdown? on: November 29, 2023, 06:46:52 PM
I am just wondering, what will happen if Bitcoin shutdown? Will the market crash? How about the effect of this to altcoins? Can government shutdown Bitcoin? I have a lot of question about this matter, because who knows, right? Also, how about hackers shutdown Bitcoin? What are your thought here? Let's discuss this.
If Bitcoin was to shutdown don't you think it would have done that long time ago? Bitcoin has lasted for over a decade and 4 years since it's use and it's has not been shutdown ever since then or even the attacks on it has never had a deep effect on it to shutdown.
Bitcoin as a paradigm shift can't in anyway shutdown because it the new way of doing things, if Bitcoin will ever shutdown it will be in hundreds of century maybe by then there must have been another evolution that might bring up something stronger.

I would have love to write multitudes of words but the first sentence  of my reply should cover everything you will want to ask.

1253  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What can happen next time due to a lack of proper knowledge about Bitcoin? on: November 27, 2023, 11:04:00 PM
The Banking system have failed the people in so many ways, it is about time that there are some payback for them. In the previous economic crisis, Banks were bailed out by tax payers money and we just had to take it up the a$$.

A lot of industries have been disrupted by newer technologies and they just had to adapt or die... so the Banks just have to do the same. Let's forget about them, like they forgot about us.. when they harmed us.
The intention of Satoshi in creating bitcoin is not to take avenge or revenge on what you believe banks did to us (those you have lost to the banking system) rather it was for the simple purpose of financial freedom and free from central control by governments.
I don't think banks will be destroyed but it will have to adapt to the new technology and keep it activities if banks are going to be wiped out all over the world it will take years, this year's might be up to a centenary or more or less. Though the disadvantages of banks over shadow the advantages but that should don't make anyone to forget the value it aided to human life.
I think majority know this that it was due and bound to happen and we all have Satoshi to thank for the brilliant idea. Bitcoin in it's original core like you said was meant to aid the whole system of central control of the public funds and help evaluate the idea of financial purpose and indeed it has and like every good project more idea and use always comes with it and this has also been the case of Bitcoin itself as the use of Bitcoin has been greatly diverse into an investment purpose and this has made Bitcoin superb in it's adoption. Bitcoin is an evolution in working progress and it will take some time to actually overtake the whole Rocker fellers central bank system but even if it doesn't really meet that goal, it's still very beneficial and one thing about evolution, it's doesn't really happen overnight.
Bitcoin has solved the math, and in addition, solved the central controlling overbearing nature of the financial system. Most importantly, the blockchain technology it brought into the financial system is the main reason why people adopt and appreciate it as it's revolutionary. And of course, Bitcoin itself is a currency, so it was obvious that after the right acceptability and adoption, it would be inculcated into the financial system which is what we see now. Bitcoin is capable of doing what every other currency is capable of doing, also on its own, it has the addition of privacy and anonymity which makes it unique.

Additionally, what I believe Satoshi realized and solved which people seldom talk about is the disparity of payment systems among nations of the world. You might not know, but the top world countries were the ones enjoying most of the payment gateways before now, they were disenfranchising others for the reason best known to them. But Bitcoin solved the issues and we are equal before it. What the person in the USA could do with their coins is exactly what any person in the poorest country could do with their coins. This removes sidelining and favouritism, but people do not often say this even though it's mostly appreciated and has solved a whole lot in poor countries.

Even though I agree with the idea of bitcoin as an equalizing force, yet status quo rich people, institutions and countries have advantages to acquire more bitcoin than status quo poor people, institutions and countries.  At the same time, the status quo poor  may well end up seeing the advantages and/or their ability to prosper by getting involved in bitcoin earlier, which is part of the justification why there is likely going to be some ongoing wealth redistribution that comes through bitcoin and for those who identify getting involved in bitcoin earlier and who are able to accumulate bitcoin without necessarily losing too much of it along the way.
Put differently, the so called status quo rich people for this reason of Bitcoin tending to be an equalizing force wouldn't likely let the status quo poor people reach their social status hence they work with the government or are the government itself, inorder to maintain the central control idea which Bitcoin oppose.
The concept of Bitcoin seems to be an attack to the social strata that has been in operation, when this status quo poor people end up seeing the advantages of Bitcoin and get involved & thereby prosper, then the social mobility is powered the government tends to be freightened by the speed in which the status will change and hence will use the banks and governments to manipulate them.
They believe when this status quo poor people get some level of exposure as a result of being elevated with Bitcoin, there will be a fight back because they may have enjoyed freedom and wouldn't likely go back to being manipulated. this is a major issue surrounded around the fight against Bitcoin, since they may not be able to make it open they have to use some covers like KYC etc as a welcome development to still initiate the central authority idea.

Sometimes wanting to introduce bitcoin, systems, concepts to lay people is still difficult and they almost don't believe the concept after it is explained. I told my friends the same age as my parents, that they believed from the start that they only knew fiat money. only young people believe because the version of the modern world has changed. Until now, young people in my area can get to know bitcoin and crypto
It takes patience in teaching about Bitcoin to people who don't understand anything about Bitcoin, because if in our delivery we don't make them interested, of course they won't listen or even respond to what we have explained to them, but if we introduce it to those who do have The desire to know about Bitcoin will certainly be easier for us to convey it, so it will be better for us to convey it to those who don't respond well to what we have conveyed.

We don't need to explain in detail because they won't want to learn about this. and for those who want to learn it, we can teach it and guide them until they really understand Bitcoin well.
In as much I understand the perspective in which you are speaking from I will say most people who don't understand the concept of Bitcoin are mostly from remote areas or rural/under development environment because they may lack exposure to technology at the moment but when trying to enlighten them about Bitcoin one must not be in a haste because it may be misunderstood and then seems to them to be a scam but when you put in some effort understanding the type of things in which this people understand then relate Bitcoin to what they value or understand better it will be easier to convey your message faster.
Empathetically, if I have to be in their shoes I would love to see evidence that shows that something like Bitcoin truly exist either by the results of it in the life of the conveyor or something else but you wouldn't expect people from some interior underdeveloped areas to just believe what you convey.
So it more advisable to only educate those indicate interest and when changes occur in the life's of this people you can make reference to them then it will be easier to penetrate the hearts of people who may not understand Bitcoin at the moment.

Yes, you can try to figure out which shitcoins are less shitty. 

Seriously  I don't really think it easy to figure how shitty a shit coin can or would be it's just a 50-50 hope of rise to fall even if there's a high tendency for it to appreciate we all know it will get dumped and abandoned forever. Sometimes,  I wonder if this so called shit coins are used for money laundering as there will be  a big pump all of a sudden and all becomes shitty Tongue in just a hour or less.... just saying though . The best choice is to just stay away from it or just consider it as pure gambling, a win good for the winner  Smiley a loss acceptance of fate Cheesy

There is absolutely no need of stressing ones self to pick the millets from the sands, trying to find out which is altcoin is less shitty is just a total waste of time because it seems like you're trying to find out a black man in the mixt of black men. What is, is. So they is no need trying to separate the sheep's from the goats when they are all animals.
1255  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What can happen next time due to a lack of proper knowledge about Bitcoin? on: November 27, 2023, 02:44:46 AM
The popularity of cryptocurrencies is growing rapidly and it is likely that it will replace banks in the future.

 I don't think this will happen immediately. It will take some time for people to accept cryptocurrency as an official payment method.

As cryptocurrency adoption increases, banks will need to adapt. They can do this by offering crypto-based services, such as crypto wallets and crypto payments.

If banks do not adapt, they could be devastated and become obsolete. However, I think this will be a gradual process.
Like I have said before Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies (shitcoins) are not in competition with with  traditional banks but are only here to offer a well cherish services with is elevator from centre control from government and the manipulation of monetary policies of the government, base on your assumption cryptocurrencies might replace banks in future is not correct or might be correct in some point but their is a big difference between banks and fiat or printed money, banks are the third-parties with hand and administer fiats but not fiat it self cryptocurrencies as you said could replace fist in future which we may not witness because it might take a centenary, even with this current improvement in adoption of Bitcoin and other shitcoins or crypto assets it doesn't mean third-parties won't be need in future rather it will require a trust system that will likely be an individual or institutions that are not completely detached, which means people will prefer to have a face to face or personal contact with their third-parties instead of the current operation of the traditional banks which is completely detached.

The banking system has disappointed people in many ways. In the last economic crisis, the banks were bailed out with taxpayer money, and we were left with that money. This is unfair, and it shows that banks do not value people. We gave them a chance, but they abused our trust. It's time to let them take care of themselves. We will not forget what they did, and we will not give them a second chance.
though banks may have betrayed the trust which was and is entrusted/beckoned on them but we cannot for some reason disregard or undermine the helps which banks had rendered. The purpose of Bitcoin is not to revenge what do ever that banks may have cost people, Satoshi created Bitcoin to free people from central control of the government and set financial freedom to all and not to take avenge or revenge on the banks.
In my opinion saying we will not give them a second chance sounds like we (you and whoever thinks in this same manner)  are in a competition with the banks, Bitcoin is not in any competition with banks, it's only fulfilling it goals whis is to freedom from government manipulation.

bitcoin will never overtake bank, because now it is hard to predict that bitcoin will be adopt all of the country in future,
banking system is very strong, economically a country is managed through banks without it a state is immobilized,
so still people's have to trust their traditional bank, but i am not saying  that bank is completely secured,
Your statement maybe considered void or should I say not correct.
Bitcoin is gradually being accepted globally, have you checked out the statistics of Bitcoin? or the performance of Bitcoin in recent times? you really have to check out some things and find out yourself. With the way you sound it seems you do not really read alot because the banks in which you support is just made up to have everyone in the hand of some f***kup minded people who only protect themselves from coming down from. the position which the assume or are afraid of people becoming rich as they are, the government which is in control of the the country is only using the banks to have everything being manipulated in their favour. How many people trust their banks? haven't you seen people panic as a result of the banking system policies? the current situation of people still patronizing the traditional banks are mostly because they have no choice for the time being, imagine when people begin to handle they without control do you think banks will have much costumers to serve? most of this banks are still in business cause the are no much option yet. traditional banks are tools used by monetary agencies of a state to control the lives of their citizens, I believe that is the exact reason Bitcoin has be initiated to free people from this set of people that manipulates the I've of people. Bitcoin is decentralized currency that allows everyone to have absolutely control of their funds.

3: Many developing or underdeveloped countries (especially those with low leverage) will consider cryptocurrency a curse rather than a blessing due to their lack of proper understanding of its importance.

Cryptocurrency is now getting acceptable and those who don't know yet will surely go towards learning about its characteristic because it is a reality that whenever new things come into use then people first start investigating about it then use their money for investment.

Those were the people of past were innocent who don't understand well but put money into anything but now age is modern and also people are modified according to era so they will not think bitcoin as a curse but they will realize its benefits. Like you have seen that instead of having strict regulations in some country people are still buying more and more bitcoin because they know that a day will come when their country will accept bitcoin so I think that it is will of everyone to be educated about bitcoin as they already know that importance of bitcoin.
Sometimes wanting to introduce bitcoin, systems, concepts to lay people is still difficult and they almost don't believe the concept after it is explained. I told my friends the same age as my parents, that they believed from the start that they only knew fiat money. only young people believe because the version of the modern world has changed. Until now, young people in my area can get to know bitcoin and crypto
Bitcoin is not only understood by young people mate, it depends on your view or the area which you are located. there are lots of people here in this forum whom are advanced of age but are well acquainted with the know of Bitcoin, e.g @philipma1957 , @The Sceptical Chymist, @Jet Cash etc this all advanced people by age but are well and far aquatinted with this Bitcoin knowledge, there is absolutely nobody who can't understand but because of the level of there exposure has reduce the understanding in them but concluding that only young people can understand Bitcoin is absolutely wrong.

A major fact that applies to life in general that most people have refused to adhere to is "Everything has time" this does not only work here but in life generally, but in the case of Bitcointalk forum newbies are mostly found rushing to meet up with some who have been here for a long time.

Maybe it could a caused by the circumstances in which they heard about forum, like someone introducing the forum as a place they can earn instead of learn thereby omitting the L, Hence they start trying to rank up in order to start earning. Undermining the fact that people who are ranked up spent a very long time to learn and as a result of lessons learnt they ranked up. For the purpose of rushing to rank up has led to different negative results some could be positive if they took corrections but some negative due too spamming and other fact like plagiarism etc.

To any newbie who might be reading, stay positive and use the search button regularly and find answers to what you wish to learn. The forum have lasted over a decade and more so almost everything you which to talk about has been talk about so to avoid things like plagiarism search if it has been treated and grow gradually.
1257  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What can happen next time due to a lack of proper knowledge about Bitcoin? on: November 25, 2023, 11:16:53 PM
The worst thing that can happen to people who discover Bitcoin but lack knowledge is to get fooled into investing in shitcoins, thus missing out on their chance at financial freedom and being early to this new paradigm when Bitcoin continues to provide the world real value.
Exactly getting involved with shitcoins is the biggest mistake anyone can make in venturing into the crypto spaces, hence seeing themselves as early investors that will reap the fruit of a shitcoin.
While the real deal keeps appreciating and performing it's expected task and more which is offering financial freedom.
People who get involved with this shitcoins usually see themselves as to be in the position of hitting up a jackpot when this shitcoins raises believing that it was the same way Bitcoin started before it got to such a price and now they too have a chance of become rich with this shitcoins that are not in anyway to be compared to Bitcoin.
Knowledge as said by the wise men is the biggest weapon a man can get because it will provide you with a ground of success, just for have a good knowledge of what your getting involved with you will not fall for traps that glitters as gold.
I feel pity for anyone that has the believe of shitcoins and comparing to a paradigm itself.

It’s not at all possible for Bitcoins to completely take over the fiat. The reason is very simple. Bitcoins are limited in numbers. Hence majority of the people consider it as a digital asset rather than any currency. Moreover due to the decentralised nature of the coin, it cannot be controlled, hence government will impose the traditional banking methods only. Moreover we are also in very early stage to think something like this. Let’s practically see things and let’s progress slowly.
It may not be possible for Bitcoin to completely take over the fiat for now but might be possible in future, if Bitcoin as a paradigm could be possibly launched with such revolution that it has brought then it might be possible to be the one of the currencies in future but the fact is Bitcoin originally wasn't created to take over fiat or to be in competition with fiat but rather to provide financial freedom and free people from governmental central control or manipulation.
though some people might just consider Bitcoin a digital asset but Bitcoin is not just a digital asset, it could be a digital asset to anyone who feels it that way because of its limited number but there are lot of features it holds if properly examine that makes it not just a digital asset but a paradigm shift. bitcoin is uncontrollable by any government and it's doesn't make it certain since it can't be controlled government will have to introduce traditional banking system rather the existing traditional banks will have to adopt Bitcoin and/or cryptocurrencies including shitcoins. in the case where they can't afford to adopt then such banks may die of or run out of business as earlier said by JayJuanGee.

At a certain point, there may be a need for an investor to delve into something that is certain to provide a faster return, perhaps in a short period of time.
Why?  Isn't bitcoin potentially volatile enough?  What more "faster return" is necessary, and at what point would a person "need" to engage in such extra risk taking, when bitcoin is already risky?
No doubt bitcoin is potentially volatile with its own peculiar risk and returns but investing (diversifying) in other different projects that's not cryptocurrency is another form of expansion that returns made from there can be utilize into accumulating and increasing your bitcoin portfolio, in my opinion a good diversification can be a supportive ground for a bitcoin investor not to tamper with his bitcoin investment at any  financial emergency storm that might hit.

If the money is there enough to diversify the risk factor shouldn't be an excuse not to diversify. None diversification of businesses is like driving a car on along journey without having a spare tire with you for flat tire emergency along the long.
You there is this saying that "the gap between you and your success is focus" Everyone wants results but nobody wants to stay focused. The gap between your current life and the life you want is called focus.
Focus 100% on one thing, instead of doing 5 things with 20% focus each.
In my opinion this is what @JayJuanGee is trying to say, for instance if someone accumulates Bitcoin with $10 per week and wish to diversify, since Bitcoin is volatile enough s/he can create another portfolio to invest another $10 per week and when price increases s/he can withdraw from their profit and still retain it's invested amount. With this example one can still remain in one business rather your speculation of diversity, then you can be 100% focused on one thing is stead of investing in 5 different things with 20% focus on each.
