What if we don't really need lending and borrowing? What if we'd start living again on our very own basis? Why should we borrow from our future when we should focus on how to make a living and actually live in the present time?
Your discussion is just perpetuating the current rotten system, sorry to say.
I'd prefer a world where everyone would do only the things he can do..
The American dream of taking from the future's over and done.

It seems very difficult to expect a world without lending and borrowing, because some companies need loans to be able to expand their business.
Because finding investors nowadays is very difficult compared to finding loans, so I think borrowing is still needed. The problem is don't make
borrowing a habit, if it's not for urgent needs, it's better to avoid borrowing money. Therefore banks will be difficult to replace, so the government
does not have to worry about Bitcoin replacing banks. Due to the fact that banks are still needed, one of which is that banks can lend money to
those in need.

Bitcoin is not as secure as Fiat, but in terms of making a profit, Bitcoin cannot be equivalent or close to Fiat. However, in all those countries, bitcoin is not legal tender In all those countries, Fiat is more important than Bitcoin.

Bitcoin has a volatile price, so it is more risky than fiat. It is true that Bitcoin has the advantage of being able to generate profits, but it doesn't
make Bitcoin any better than fiat. Because Bitcoin still has some shortcomings, which makes many countries have not legalized Bitcoin. After all,
Bitcoin was not created to replace fiat, so it's best not to compare Bitcoin and fiat. In my opinion, both fiat and Bitcoin are needed, so it is more
ideal for both of them to co-exist, so that they can complement each other.

Premier League sure is really competitive during these first three weeks and we have witnessed some really good games.Arsenal is so far the worst team of the league but I think they will recover,they just need some time to get back in shape,I would dare say that they may fight for the place in Champions League or Europa League in the end of the Premiership.The problem for me is that now the 2 weeks of missing action may impact the teams performance but can also serve as sometime to reflect for teams like Arsenal.
The actual Arsenal won't go far, I would say somewhere between 10-15 places at best. Obviously I doubt they will let things continue this catastrophic way and some change will happen? but they will not definitely end in a CL spot, nor EL imo.
CL/EL spots gonna be between City, ManU, Chelsea, Liverpool, Spurs and Leicester. West Ham seems to keep the same level as the previous season so even Conference League gonna be hard.
Anyway I don't expect a big change in Arsenal gameplay, they will play next vs Norwich and Burnley, losing points in those matches mean suicide and Artera departure tho.

The condition of Arsenal and Wolves is very worrying compared to other teams, apart from having not won from 3 matches, but both teams failed
to score a goal. Especially Arsenal which is in the spotlight right now, because Arsenal's appearance worsened when Arteta became coach.
The matches against Norwich and Burnley could indeed determine Arteta's future at Arsenal, but for me Arteta really deserved to be sacked.
Moreover, Arteta has bought quite a lot of players this season and the results have been very poor so far. I agree with you, chances are Arsenal
will end the season somewhere between position 10-15, there is even a possibility of getting into the relegation zone if Arteta is not sacked immediately.

If you are going to quit you cannot earn, I also experienced lossing on trading but I always charge it to experience, this isn't about the luck it's about how you work or fucos on it. It is normal that we incounter some mistakes and lose a huge amount of profit but how can we get our money back if we are going to quit on trading?.
Quitting trading won't get us any money back and it just keeps us out of trouble. We must have an unyielding attitude, whatever difficulties we face
when trading, we must be able to deal with them. Therefore, do not make decisions involving emotions, so it will only make us make the wrong
decisions. Experiencing losses in trading is normal and happens to everyone, so we have to be more focused and work hard to fix every mistake
we make. If we are patient through the process, we can get success soon.
What you say I think is also true because after all when we are already in trading we must be prepared to face the risks,
making a decision without considering and in a hurry will most likely cost us money,
what is clear is that making a profit when trading is not easy because if it was easy everyone who trades I think has become rich

Unfortunately most people want to quickly generate large profits, then use large capital, without taking into account the risks that occur.
In the end, many people suffer heavy losses, and that usually makes some people stress and decide to quit trading. Even though they started
in the wrong way, as you said we have to prepare everything, including how to deal with risks. Don't be in a hurry to make big profits,
start with 3%-5% profit, if accumulated it will be big too. The conclusion is that there is no getting rich overnight by trading, so we have to be
patient when trading, sometimes it takes a long time to achieve success.
1265  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin @ $50k on: August 30, 2021, 12:36:30 AM
Bitcoin started this weekend market on a very good note hasn’t broken the 48k price benchmark which has held Bitcoin down for over a week before finally crushing the 48k price resistance level arriving at $48,500 on Friday evening, Bitcoin will inevitably end this week with a market price of $50k.

What is your analysis of this prediction?

This week has been so challenging for bitcoin, by now predictions was too hard to foretell since market was very tough. You can see times it goes up and down, so basically traders with weak hearts tends to panic even though little fluctuations. Currently we're at $48k per btc, if it won't rise until the last day of August I am looking forward starting September $50k will begun initiate a commendable value.

It is very difficult to reach the price of $50k, it has decreased several times. But now Bitcoin has gone up to $49k, meaning that only a little more
the price of $50k can be reached. Hopefully in the next few days Bitcoin manages to rise to the price of $50k. Especially now that there is
no FUD circulating, the $50k target should be achieved this week. If the Bitcoin crosses the $50k price, this will make it easier for Bitcoin to reach
a price of $60k.
1266  Economy / Economics / Re: Money and happiness. on: August 29, 2021, 10:45:24 AM
Happiness is free, and money can't buy happiness. Is not everything that money will buy, but at the same time money is subjected to must happiness because money helps in buying what will make someone happy. But the word Happiness did depend on the amount of money one can control and spend it derives how happy the person is because at the same time if there is no money they will surely be no happiness.

Money and happiness are like 2 sides of a coin, both are different but complement each other, even though money can't buy happiness but money can complete happiness, it's impossible for us to be happy without money, especially since we live in an era where everything we have to pay for with money.

I like your analogy, it's true it's very difficult nowadays to live without money. Because almost everything costs money, money can't buy happiness,
but without money it's hard to find happiness. It means that in life we need both, as you said money will complete our happiness. So it's
no wonder nowadays almost everyone works hard in order to make a lot of money, it's all they goal in order to get happiness.

It is true that everyone has their own target, if they have already achieved the desired target, there is no need to hold on anymore. And my advice is
not to be too greedy in pursuing profit, if indeed we think the price of Bitcoin has reached a high enough price, we can take profit. And can buy
Bitcoin again when the price is corrected, so don't be obsessed with big profits when investing in Bitcoin. I also if there is an urgent need, I without
thinking will sell the Bitcoin that I have, even though I have held it for quite a long time. We ourselves have to decide when to sell our Bitcoins,
because everyone's strategies and conditions are different.
We do have different minds and we do have different goals and targets inside our heads and there would be some several factors that might affect your decision thats why it isnt an assurance
that you would really make profits when you do hold and depending on what coins you've been holding and come to think that not all the projects do succeed this is why its been ideal
to stick with the best or top ranking coins which you do saw which does have chance or potential in future years to come specially if you do intendedly hold for
longer years to come.

Why don't we depend on other people's opinions, because we certainly have different goals and targets. If we want to invest according to our
own analysis and research, it will make us more confident when making decisions. From the selection of coins, to the target that we will achieve,
we should decide for ourselves. So don't be lazy to learn everything about crypto, so we can find out which coins we should buy and hold.
Most people will usually choose to invest in top ranking coins, because it is safer for long-term investment.

Liverpool couldn't succeed in winning a game which they were very dominant especially in the second half. After the red card, they took the control of the match but they weren't good enough to score even one more goal against Chelsea. If it wasn't for the red card, Chelsea would play way more different than this. They were already 1-0 ahead before the red card and they had a potential to win the match.

I'm one of those people who believe Chelsea should beat Liverpool if Reece James doesn't get a red card. It made it difficult for Chelsea to play with
only 10 men, and it was not used well by Liverpool. Although Liverpool controlled the match more in the second half and created several chances,
they still failed to score the winning goal. This draw is actually the best result for both teams, before the match I also predicted the match would end
in a draw.

Almost every career, discipline or profession has its own hazard, risk and disadvantage. I hear many people who feel like quiting or abandoning their kind of job because of the risk they go through.

Likewise trading is risky too. For you as a trader, have you considered abandoning trading because of the high risk of losing money in your trade?
If you are going to quit you cannot earn, I also experienced lossing on trading but I always charge it to experience, this isn't about the luck it's about how you work or fucos on it.

1270  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Bull Tamed on: August 28, 2021, 10:31:50 PM
I have no idea about even if this is a bull run. So I can't say that bull is tamed or not now. In my opinion, this is some kind of a great rally and it is still not tamed. It just got a price correction and it is preparing to move on soon. It should be able to break $50k resistance level in a short time and go bigger in the next month.

I also don't think the current bull run has been successfully tamed, because the movement of Bitcoin is difficult to predict and there is a possibility
that it can fall very deep at any time. So we must always be vigilant when investing in Bitcoin, because there are many possibilities that can happen.
And always prepare for the worst case scenario, so that we don't get stressed if our predictions don't go according to plan. We do have to be patient
to wait if Bitcoin is able to pass the $50k price, if successful then the price of Bitcoin will rise to the next resistance level.

I will probably freelance my programming, but the reason I made the site is because im the only site that doesnt need a KYC. Thats what makes it different.
If you have programming skills why don't you sell your program maybe it could be an opportunity that you can market right. Make a website, online store or something else that can make money. But that comes back to your interest too . I used to go to software programming school but it wasn't a job I loved. Finally I gave up on it all. So look for what when you work you feel happy.

To be able to make money on the internet is actually easier than in the real world, because the traffic we can get is very large. We just need to
maximize our skills and interests, should do the work according to our interests. So that we can do work more enthusiastically and not give up easily.
If programming is our skill and passion, maximize it, it will be easier to make money.

The last time it was Manchester City who will get Ronaldo, what happened in less than 24 hours? Huh
I didn't expect this. I'm happy for Manchester United fans, they had emotional mood swings today, from hate to love again. I hope he will be successful and stay as their legend. Pogba would be happy. Manchester United is stronger now.

It really surprised everyone with the success of Man United in bringing back Ronaldo, this is sure to make Man United supporters happy. I still can't
believe Ronaldo can finally rejoin Man United, the 2021/2022 Premier League season will be very interesting. Even though I'm not a Man United supporter,
I have to admit that Man United will be even stronger with Ronaldo's arrival. Even though Ronaldo is 36 years old, his physical and finishing are
still very good. So I believe Ronaldo will make a huge contribution to Man United.
1274  Other / Archival / Re: Scalping is the most controversial way to make money. My experience for 4 years on: August 27, 2021, 03:40:16 AM
Scalping is very good for short profit. I think scalping is profitable in bearish cycle. But its risky too. I lose 20% in scalping. I used solana and Dego for scalping m they both are volatile coins. I made 100$+ easily.
I also hold some coin which i can expect 2×

Scalping trading is indeed way to generate profits in a short time, but not everyone can be successful when doing scalping trading. It takes knowledge
and skills to be able to do the analysis correctly, so we can choose the right coins for scalping. Because not all coins are suitable for scalping, even if
we are not careful, scalping trading can cause us to experience considerable losses. So I suggest that newbies don't do scalping trading, because
newbies don't have the knowledge and skills to analyze the market. Experience is also very useful to be able to succeed in making profits from
scalping trading.
1275  Economy / Speculation / Re: No BTC Holding is risky on: August 26, 2021, 11:12:22 PM
You have taken the wrong step, even though bitcoin is in a good trend at the moment in the market, this shows that there is no risk of holding bitcoin all the time, although in general you have not suffered big losses, but I think you have wasted a good opportunity at this time .

Altcoins also don't matter if we invest, even more perfect if we can also use bitcoin simultaneously in investing with altcoins, if one of them is problematic, then there are other coins that can provide good returns, that's why bitcoin and altcoins need to be invested simultaneously .
You should never sell bitcoin and always think to accumulate them. The future is of bitcoins and i believe that those who do not have bitcoin will be left behind.
You can trade or sell your altcoins but always keep on holding bitcoins.
But I really don't think that it was needed for us to keep on holding forever because we can't assure that Bitcoin will ever stay forever or if the price will stay strong and growing. I'm not against holding but sometimes we also have to reconsider some instances that might cause us failure and big losses. Like if I bought Bitcoin at $30k and sell them at $40k, that was an absolute profit, right? if you are not a greedy person, it is certainly good enough, IMO.

Indeed, an effective way to make profit in the crypto world is to take profit if there is an opportunity. Because maybe we will miss the opportunity
to make a profit if we continue to hold the coins we have.  But this is only for people who do have time to monitor the market every day, so they
know what is happening in the market. For people who are busy and only have time maybe once a week to pay attention to Bitcoin price
developments, there is no harm in focusing on holding Bitcoin in the long term and only selling when the desired target is reached.
In the end it depends on the situation and everyone's strategy, because investing in Bitcoin is very flexible, do what we think is effective.
1276  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think financial stability is mandatory to be a gainer in Bitcoin invest? on: August 26, 2021, 07:42:43 PM
i Wouldn't say finicial stability but having enough to sustain your day to day things, so for me i started getting into bitcoin when i was a student i had to work part time to pay for my rent and food while also studying, what i used to do is i try to save up some money every end of the month by for example buying cheap food or not going out on some weekends and i would put back that saved money into bitcoin, because i believed that bitcoin is a good investment that would only get bigger with the years.

What you are doing is right, by living more frugally to be able to invest in Bitcoin. If indeed we want to become rich or change our economy for
the better, it is very important to invest in the right assets. Bitcoin can give us wealth and economic improvement, if we can invest in Bitcoin
in the long term. Because Bitcoin doesn't make us rich in a short time, sometimes it can take several years to make big profits from Bitcoin.
As long as we consistently collect Bitcoin and hold Bitcoin in the long term, then getting rich is just a matter of time.
1277  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What would you consider living on crypto? on: August 26, 2021, 08:41:43 AM

it's hard to live with crypto only in my country. crypto users will have to convert their coins to fiat before they could spend, there is no way we can spend bitcoin directly since there are only a few stores that accept BTC.

for the people who considers BTC to be an investment, its gonna be hard for them to let go of their BTC. they expect the price to shoot to the moon so why would they spend it when it's going to be worth a lot later.

I have the same difficulty as you, can't spend Bitcoin directly to buy daily necessities. It's not that there aren't many shops that accept Bitcoin
payments, but in my country using crypto is only allowed as a digital asset. So the government of my country forbids using Bitcoin as payment,
nor can we live solely on investing in crypto. We know it's very difficult to earn a steady income from investing in crypto, so for now I really can't
rely on crypto for a living. I still have to work in the real world to be able to earn a steady income, and the extra money I have I can use to invest
in Bitcoin. So for me crypto is just my retirement plan in the future, hope the Bitcoin price rises very high in the future and can enjoy the results.

After getting a defeat against Chelsea 2-0, this was the result Arsenal needed really.  Grin  They just obliterated West Brom in this match. And West Brom are actually not the worst team but they couldn't do anything against Arsenal here. Aubameyang made a hat-trick and Lacazette also scored after entering the game in the second half. They have improved their morale before their league match vs Manchester City.
Arsenal were an entirely different team today, but it's really understandable that West Brom are not much of a competitive team right now. That said it might really be worth a risk to back Arsenal over the weekend against Man City, the odds is currently @ 12.6 on Roobet for Arsenal to win at full time, I'll be putting a few bucks on it, with Aubameyang and Lacazette fully back, maybe Arsenal would a stand a chance 😉

It's not surprising that Arsenal actually beat West Brom, because like you said West Brom are not a competitive team. Arsenal and West Brom's
level is far different, but still surprised Arsenal can win with a big enough score. Are they motivated because the previous two Premier League
games were bad, and Arsenal are trying to bounce back with a number of core players already back in action. Next Arsenal will play away against
Man City, it will be a different game, because Man City is one of the strongest teams in the Premier League. I don't see any chance of winning
for Arsenal, although Aubameyang and Lacazette can play again. If you decide to bet on Arsenal's win, it's really very brave, I just as an Arsenal
supporter don't dare to do that.

I am a newbie on this forum. My main focus is trading ( crypto) I have been trading for a couple years. Just curious to ask a question : what was your worst mistake ( in the very beginning, 1st year).
Would be happy to read about your experience !



My greatest mistake is selling my BTC and ETH way back 2 years ago. It was the big mistake for me. I did not expect that BTC and ETH price will going to increase. It was a bad decision for me.

Don't be regret for the mistakes you have made, because the mistakes you made are also made by many people. The most important thing is that
we can learn from the mistakes we made and try to fix them and not repeat them again. There are still wide opportunities for success and wealth
from trading or investing in crypto. All successful people usually do make mistakes and experience failure first, but they managed to rise and correct
the mistakes they made.
1280  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Bitcoin Bullish At The Moment on: August 25, 2021, 02:58:53 PM
This is a very good momentum for Bitcoin, finally Bitcoin managed to rise past the price of $50k according to many people's predictions. Even though it turns out that Bitcoin is now back down to $49k, that's not a problem we need to worry about, because the decline in the price of Bitcoin will not last long. Bitcoin price will rise even higher this week, hopefully Bitcoin can get back above the $60k price soon. I believe the bullish trend will last until the end of the year, and Bitcoin could hit another ATH. If this comes true, this will further attract large companies to invest in Bitcoin.
Even during bull runs there are times when it goes down, we moved from 30k to all the way to 48k and then dropped to 44k and everyone started talk about how that pump was a temporary one and we will now go down, from 44k to all the way down to under 30k as well! And we have seen how that was wrong. Bull runs are common in the bitcoin world but even in those bull runs we end up seeing a lot of increases and I feel like 44k turned into 50k so that means 50k could turn into 55k+ as well, that is not really impossible and I believe that it will definitely happen in the short term as well, all we need to do is stay patient and not sell during this period even if it drops a bit more, and we will be in profit soon.

Bitcoin again experienced a correction to the price of $ 47k, hopefully this doesn't make some investors panic sell. We have to believe the price of
Bitcoin will soon return to the price of $50k,  because the Bitcoin price decline that is happening now is still a natural thing to happen. There is not
much we can do in the current situation, we can only be patient and hope the price will recover soon. As long as we don't sell the Bitcoins
we have, everything will be fine, we haven't lost.
