Same here. I never thought this can happen, the new update makes it more easier for us to buy and sell our token and withdraw or use it to play. I also have 1000 RLB as their airdropped for users before. But I didn't use it to join in lottery so I just let it sit there while playing. Those who own Rollbots (like you) from V1 and V2 are luckier because they got more RLB airdropped.
Early people usually have bigger advantage than late comers. When we look at people who mined or bought bitcoins in 2009 and a couple of years later, we think they are lucky. It can be true partially but the most importance is whether they have enough belief and strong hands to hold their coins.

How many Bitcoin faucet claimers from this Freebitcoins.appspot.com held their bitcoins till 2017, 2021 or now?

Quote
Anyway, I have no plan to sell my RLB yet. Instead, I'll buy more to hold, just waiting for a price decrease so I can buy at cheaper price.
I checked RLB price on Coinmarketcap and today price is more than half of its all time high. It has good recovery recent weeks and I agree with you that with good products, reputation of Rollbit team, it's very wise to hold the RLB token in your portfolio. Especially if you received those tokens from airdrop, you have nothing to lose.

To be honest I'd avoid sharing signals altogether. Even if you can build some trust by sharing signals, it is very easy to get broken. One or two 'bad' signals can give affect your image. Having "our signals are not always accurate" won't help either since it doesn't make you more unique than dozens of signal groups out there.
No free lunch.

If you find a signal with a coin which has not too big trading volume, you should never share that signal. With small trading volume, sharing it will make some impacts on that coin price when more people amongst your signal receivers will buy and sell it.

If you buy it previously before sharing the signal, you can enjoy new capital flow from signal receivers and you can have higher price to take profit. However, it will result in bigger selling pressure later.

I guess signal providers usually buy ahead of signal receivers and it's no free lunch for receivers. The later they receive signals and enter market, the bigger risk from higher entry price for them.

but if you look at it only from the overall prediction, it is Seville that can win the European league. indeed Roma will be very strong in the final later but that strength is only due to the pressure from the final round which pressures the Roma players to appear strong in the final match later.
different from Sevilla who have won the European league many times and until now they still have good performance and strategy.
so that many people will bet on choosing and supporting Seville. but if Roma are able to win the champions league title, I think this is a great surprise that deserves to be praised.
Both Roma and Sevilla have reasons from history to believe that they will win the final match. However, no team can win a big title only by relying on history. They must work hard to win a final match and if their players don't have motivation to do that, they will not be winners and champions.

Jose Mourinho so far has 5 final matches in Europe with Porto, Inter Milan, Manchester United and Roma from Champions League, Europa League and Conference League. He has won all of five final matches he joined.

Sevilla, in opposite, have had 6 final matches in Europa League and won them all.
Sevilla holds the record for the most victories, having won the competition six times since its inception.

From those stats, we can see they will start a final match in Budapest with very strong belief that they will be winner after the final whistle. It makes the final will be so interesting between to ambitious teams.

Manchester City is now a much stronger and more organized team. The team was overly reliant on Haaland at the start of the season. But gradually they have been able to reduce this dependency. de Bruyne and Silva have consistently performed well in every match. Although Haaland did not play well against Real Madrid, Manchester City won an excellent 4-0. If Manchester City don't lose the truck then I think they are unlikely to lose against Inter Milan. But you have to play very carefully against Inter Milan. Inter Milan's performances have been erratic, but this team is not weak. Inter Milan has the ability to win against City.
Manchester City don't rely on Haaland and they played so well without Haaland in previous seasons in both Premier League and Champions League. Haaland came and scored many goals for them, broke many records but it does not mean Manchester City started to rely on Haaland just after a few months.

Haaland can not play well and score goals in every match especially in big matches, opponents will give Haaland very special serious defensive treatment against him. It is harder for Haaland to shine in such big matches.

Because in terms of the quality of the players and the level of consistency of the game we can see clearly that Man City is above Inter Milan. Even Inter Milan is currently still struggling to stay in the top 3 in Serie A. Meanwhile, Man City seems to be comfortable at the top of the Premier League standings and the EPL Trophy will be in Man City's hands again this season. And I think the UCL Trophy will most likely also be in the hands of Man City for this season.

Well, Inter Milan does have the experience of winning the UCL trophy 3 times, namely in 1964, 1965 and 2010. But I think this season will belong to Man City.
Manchester City have better quality than Inter Milan but in a single final match, a bit difference in quality does not decide a winner. Inter Milan have better history than Manchester City in Champions League but they can not win the next final match with their history.

Result of the final will be decided by two team performances in the match. About mentality, both clubs have very strong players and they are very experienced with big matches in big leagues and big tournaments like Euro and World Cup. Tactics from two coaches for their teams will be important too and I have more belief in Pep than in Inzaghi.

In as much as I've always considered and recommended ledger and it's competitor company(trezor), to be the best type of wallet to store bitcoin and other crypto currencies since they are offline wallet, I've never owned any of this hardware wallet, and I do not have any plan of buying one any time soon, as I have been using mycelium and electrum wallets since 2016 and never encountered any issues, I simply have not seen a need to purchase a hardware wallet..
Trezor is not a perfect hardware wallet too especially you have to spend money to buy Trezor wallet. It's not free at all and it is not much better than Ledger. They cooperated with Wasabi to spy transactions and do censorship. I don't like it with a wallet I have to pay expensive cost to buy.

[LIST] Open Source Hardware Wallets. They are not perfect hardware wallets too but I like them more than Ledger or Trezor.

You can use multi-sig wallets with Bitcoin Core, Electrum as alternatives for hardware wallets.

With centralized exchanges, you will have to create your account, mostly KYC and store your cryptocurrency in that account. You don't own private keys of your coins on centralized exchanges.

So you're worried about the future because the US seems keen to 'kill' crypto with their regulations? To be honest, I would not be surprised if they change their rules here and there after some lobbying happened. Not to mention most people agree that SEC is doing more harm than good with their recent shenanigans. Even if they don't change and in the worst-case scenario the US no longer trades Bitcoin, I doubt it will completely kill the crypto market. Price will plummet for sure, but it will correct itself and Bitcoin will still be accessible as currency.
The USA. is a complicated country and it has freedom so no single person, no single authority can do everything there without challenge from other people, citizens and other authorities.

Fleeing US. crypto firms 'Welcome', French regulator says. The USA. Congress Senators don't want to see cryptocurrency companies continue to flee away from their country.

More evidence that SEC Chair @GaryGensler's regulation by enforcement regime is pushing digital assets overseas.

Congress, not the @SECGov, must provide legislative clarity for the digital asset ecosystem so this innovation can thrive in American markets.

Policies in the USA. can change with time by one way or another and I really believe that cryptocurrency companies won't be killed in that nation.

Discord is better than Telegram for project management. As a project team, they will be able to manage their project, announcement, support, upgrade in Discord better than in Telegram. With Discord, you can create different sub-channels with many options to manage it. It is helpful to reduce spam messages and more effectively spreads important announcements, guides for your users.

However, similar to Telegram, in Discord, you will be messaged by many scammers or impersonators. They will send you DMs or invite you to join scam groups. You must know how to detect impersonators in Discord. Always be carefully with any link sent by someone.

It's reasonable to say that this is a final match which will be boring. Not without reason, we know Inter Milan's performance this season, and we also know what Manchester City has done this season. It's true that we can't compare because maybe they will be able to do something different, especially this is a hot and big game, the Champions League final. But in the meantime we will surely think about what you and I have to say.
Manchester City did not miss their chance to beat Real Madrid 4-0 in the second leg. And overall they really deserve to win this match.
Manchester City have a very impressive win in a second semi final match with Real Madrid and they are surely a stronger team in the final match. They are capable to win against Inter Milan impressively in the final match too.

However we can not exclude a chance for Inter Milan to surprisingly beat Manchester City and make a big shock in the final match. Manchester City are strong and very confident after the semi final but they must prepare carefully for the final with Inter Milan. Their opponent are not weak and they have good ability to counter attack. I believe that if Manchester City play will their full ability, they will beat Inter Milan but we must see what will happen in a real match.

If Manchester City win Champions League in this season, they will become a more dangerous team in next seasons. After being a champion, they will have champion traits which make them stronger in future.
1331  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Seizing Bitcoins Despite Having your Own Private Key. How this Work? on: May 18, 2023, 01:30:35 AM
It has already been established that only people who are in control of their own private keys have control of their bitcoin and that the individual may be free from censorship.
With Bitcoin, censorship only occurs when you broadcast your transaction which needs to be confirmed by miners. Some mining pools can try to do censorship, filter transactions and reject to confirm it for you.

Like Marathon miners.

Quote
However, I am learning that it may not be totally true as it is still possible to freeze bitcoins that are held in an external wallet.
If you store your bitcoin in your non custodial wallet, no one can freeze it from the Internet. If they want to seize it, they have to arrest you to get access to private key and that wallet.

By yourself, you can freeze some of your address to avoid dust attack, like this in Electrum wallet.
Dust Attack, what it is, why it is dangerous and how to prevent falling to it

Certainly I have read stories of the US Governments seizing bitcoins suspected to have been used for criminal activities.
They arrested those guys and gained access to keys, wallets and coins.

Sevilla definitely have an psychological advantage heading into this fixture and I believe that it’ll inspire them and boost their confidence that they can defeat Juventus. Furthermore Juventus have been rejuvenated recently but I feel that they’re not giving this competition that much importance like they give to the champions league hence I feel that they’ll be defeated by Sevilla tomorrow.
They will look at how they won over Manchester United in quarter final and take it as one of their supports for another win at their home stadium. Win it and have another final match in Europa League and aim at another milestone for their club.

mentally and confidently of course the Sevilla team is very good to look at the second leg later against Juventus, the draw when playing at home to Juventus in the first leg will make it easier for Sevilla to move on to the final.
Sevilla will be playing in front of their home crowd and with what they have done so far it certainly makes their mentality and confidence even better now.
even though Agg is still in a draw and all possibilities are still possible to happen, Sevilla is highly favored to advance to the Europa League final this season.
Sevilla are not stronger than Juventus in quality of players but mentally, they are very strong and it's fair if you say they are stronger mentally. Juventus are clearly not weak mentally but their players don't have experience to win Europa League and pride of such Europa League King like Sevilla.

They are star players and experienced many big matches in Euro, World Cup tournaments and Champions League too. So their semi final in Seville will be very exciting and it will be a difficult match for both teams. Hopefully Juventus players won't make mistakes in Seville like Manchester United players and I want to see an exciting match that should not be destroyed by personal mistakes.

It is predicted that the second leg of the Sevilla vs Juventus semifinal will be tough and of course very interesting to watch, because both teams have extraordinary quality players.
I guess that the second match will be similar to a first match and maybe we won't find a winner after 90 minutes or 120 minutes. With a home stadium, Sevilla will be a more favorite choice to be a winner finally.

Well, only 3 games left. while Al Nassr is only 3 points adrift. if Al Ittihad slips in the remaining matches, it means providing an opportunity for Al Nassr to win the top of the standings. yes, at least this league is still interesting in the race for trophies.
Three matches and three points, chance is there but not too good for Cristiano and Al Nassr. At least 3 points in difference is better than 5 points and they can enjoy their winning as well as a bigger chance to compete with Al Ittihad after this match.

Al Nassr being able to win from Al Taae was as predicted and Ronaldo contributed one goal through a penalty and this brought the number of goals scored by Ronaldo to 13 goals and was only 4 goals behind his teammate Talisca who also scored in that match
Ronaldo scored an important goal from a penalty that helps Al Nassr to open the match and win it but during the match, he wasted some opportunities. At his age, he can still make very power shots but accuracy is not too good. His strength to jump for headshots is not good than the past too but it's natural as no player can fight and win against ageing forever. He still has his value like in a penalty, young players can miss it because of pressure but he completed it well and very confidently.

Talisca nailed the match with his goal and continue his race for a best scorer award in Saudi Professional League.

Didn't watch the match, but judging from the statistics it's very true that AC Milan didn't perform well enough this time, maybe even it could be said that their first match performed much better, I think AC Milan will not face high difficulties because they have played so many matches that they can know exactly the strengths and weaknesses of each. AC Milan only had 5 shots and only 1 was on target, so this was really a very weak performance, and couldn't even score a goal.
AC Milan started this semi final with big pressure from their defeat with two goal difference in a first leg. They even did not have a best of Rafael Leao because of injury and he only recovered shortly before the match. It impacts AC Milan attacking power but the match could be different if AC Milan score at least one goal in early of first half. If they have one goal in a first half, the match will become more opened for AC Milan.

Quote
Congratulations to Inter Milan, who will have the opportunity to repeat the feat they achieved more than a decade ago by becoming champions, it's very rare to see a team that doesn't often to reach the champions league final, I'm sure Inter Milan will not waste this opportunity, and maybe the final will be the same as they experienced where they are not the favorites to win, but can surprise by beating Bayern Munich who were the favorites at the time with two goals from Diego Milito.
Diego Milito was not a world class striker before that season. He got a transfer from Genoa to Inter Milan and under Mourinho well management, Diego made a history for himself and for Inter Milan. It is a best season in career of Diego Milito but who needs too many great seasons. If you can have only one but enough to win Champions League, it is a very big achievement.

In this season, Inter Milan have Lautaro Martinez who returned from a successful World Cup 2022 with Argentina. This season can be a very memorial successful season for Lautaro but he must win another match with Inter Milan in Champions League.

Inter Milan are different than AC Milan as they are more connected with Argentinian players and AC Milan have more favorite and success with Brazilian players.

I agreed about this, but mostly peoples understand this event is unpredictable, and any result can happen in any match so as things going right now we can't give perfect prediction who is going to win with Arsenal and Manchester United were surely best teams in early rounds
Manchester United, Arsenal, Barcelona all were kicked out of Europa League so it's no longer relevant to discuss about them here when Europa League comes to very last matches. 3 more matches including two semi finals and one final and Europa League will find a new champion.

Quote
suddenly Sevilla emerged as new favorite with Juventus is also good squad but there on and off the field issues are creating problems for them which are not allowing them to win with now things surely looking in hand of Sevilla which outclass Manchester United at home.
Sevilla made a come back at Old Trafford and they completed their job better at their home stadium to kick Manchester United out. With two quarter final matches with Manchester United, with my neutral stance, Sevilla more deserves to appear in semi final than Manchester United which have weaker mentality.

Quote
But, we all know Juventus is best in defensive games, so they can bring any surprise with other semifinal is also not predictable because Roma and Leverkusen both are in fair position to go into final.
Juventus can play defensive as they are a club from Serie A and Italy is a nation for Catenaccio tactic. However, Juventus have good attacking players and they can play well with attacking too.

Roma looks better as they only have Kumbula in injury but the defender will miss rest of the season. He is no longer in plan of Roma and Mourinho. He is not a main central defender of Roma and before injury of Smalling, Kumbula was only an alternative central defender.

Manchester City are being considered favorites here only because of the Etihad record they have, but facing Real Madrid even in their weakest days is never going to be a walk in the park and everyone knows this...But at the moment I think these City lads are motivated enough to bag all three cups here and the Champions League should be the most sought after and they will through everything they have at it!

My prediction: Manchester City 2-1 Real Madrid
I would like to see this match goes to two extra halfs. It is boring to see it ends within 90 minutes and if Manchester City win it, I would like to see a very dramatic win for them. If they win over Real Madrid, they will have a final match and might have a first trophy in Champions League.

If it is their ending in this season, I would like to see an emotional trophy for them starting with the second semi final with Real Madrid.

It's so hard to say Manchester City are stronger than Real Madrid or oppositely and what team deserve to play in a final match. After a first leg, they are equal, not only in a draw result but in their performance too. What team deserve to go to final match will depend on their next semi final at Etihad stadium.

The difference between  Source and Closed Source is as follows;
For open source code, it means the code is publicly available to anyone who wants it, and anyone can read, copy and modify the code as desired while for closed source code, access to the code for scrutiny and modification is not given to the public.
Open source has pros and cons.

It gives community ability to verify quality, security of one product but it also helps scammers to have easy works. With open source code, they can use it for their scam projects and it is part of reasons why we have thousands of altcoin in the market.

Are altcoins quality enough? I am really doubtful about their quality and they only switch from trend to trend. Their scam developers have never stopped their activities to fork and create zero value altcoins. From Proof of Work with many PoW algorithms, to Proof of Stake then Smart Contracts, they only create new projects with a new trend, without solid usability for society.

They create altcoins to steal your bitcoins.

When miner encountering a fork, one fork has less difficulty but longer in length, while the other fork is more difficult but short. Which fork should miners choose Smiley?
A fork will occur when on the initial chain, there is split to two or three different chains. Miners and mining pools have to choose what chain they will continue to mine with and obey those consensus on that chain.

Usually mining pools, nodes, and miners will choose a longest chain to continue their work (mining blocks and confirm transactions). They will less likely to choose shorter chains as it contains more risk for them. The second scenario only happens when some mining pools intentionally support a consensus which leads to that shorter chain so they clearly know what they are doing when they choosing that short chain, then become a fork.

Hell no, do you know that most of forks are useless and will die with time?

We never trust companies that say we should keep our BTC in their custodial service, because that is exactly the opposite of what everyone should do. Any non-custodial crypto wallet that is also open source will be a good choice, whether it's about generating a backup through a seed or extracting a private key that you will then store safely, preferably in multiple copies.

Never trust companies, because they are only there for profit, proven countless times and will continue to be proven in the future.
We only have to care about ending of a wallet company if that company provides a custodial wallet and we as their wallet users, don't own private keys of our coins.

We will have to rely on that wallet company to get access to our coins. They have private keys and their activities, approve or reject our withdrawal request will decide that we will be able to access our coins or not (lose it).

They can turn to be a scam company by suddenly shut down their service without notice, or with a fake notice like our CEO is dead and we lose all our coins, we are sorry and it's the end for their users. Many fake announcements can be make if they are a scam wallet company.
