While promoting controversial material can sometimes (and only sometimes when it's actually carefully and cleverly planned, in this case it's not) work well for a business/company, this is totally ludicrous and moronic — knowing that Bitcointalk is a Bitcoin-centric community.

Gateio should fire whoever's idea these videos are.

Before asking if they'd accept a cryptocurrency, ask first if the certain species has the same concept of a "currency" to start with. There are so much factors to take into consideration that we can't really answer your question lol.


What about newborns?
Maybe if newborns have the capability of understanding money (or handling a smartphone) in the first place.

Specific wallet name ba yang Bluewallet boss? or can you give me one na you think safer than those I mentioned in OP? salamat na agad .

BlueWallet: https://bluewallet.io/

Kung security at safety ang pinag uusapan, walang tatalo sa hardware wallet(Ledger/Trezor) + sapat na kaalaman tungkol sa scams.

Kung non-custodial wallets ang pinag uusapan, hindi talaga maiiwasan ang matataas na fees kahit na bech32 wallet address. Kung gusto makatipid, no choice but to use centralized exchange wallets (e.g. Binance, Coins.ph). Pwede rin gumamit ng Lightning wallet para mura ang transactions, pero I assume Binance user ka, in which hindi pa sinusupport ng Binance ang Lightning Network.

Pero in general, ang laging recommendation ko — BlueWallet for mobile, Ledger for cold storage.

Balaji already publicized the fact that the bitcoin-to-1m-in-90-days thing is a marketing stunt. (which should've been expected anyway.)

Notable tweets:

"I just burned a million to tell you they're printing trillions."

"I said 10% chance fiat crisis happens in months, 70% chance in years, 19% chance in decades, 1% in centuries.
But 10% is very high, and worth drawing attention to."

Some people think that in the short term, the price could still go up and down a lot because of different things like the economy and what people think.

So people think that bitcoin's price could either go up, or it could go down? Such analysis, much prediction, wow.

Seriously, I really can't differentiate serious posts from satire posts if I see statements like this.

If you can't or aren't willing to trade on your own, then just quit trading in it's entirety. No "tRaDiNg SiGnALs GrOuP" will help you make money. Period. Those groups just capitalize on the ignorance of their group members.

According to many researchers, we will soon see a bull market. Bitcoin will be over $100K in 2025

Just a heads up: if you listen to those so-called "researchers" or "analysts", you're bound to be disappointed — because they don't know jack shit. Best of luck.
1409  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Paxful back up and running on: May 07, 2023, 03:15:14 AM
they've lost their credibility now.

especially when they asked for kyc to let people withdraw their remaining funds.

which was a really sus move tbh, especially for the users who didn't fall in the kyc category in the first place.

and i don't think i will ever use paxful or their other projects again.

i hope no one uses noones.

If I remember correctly the force of withdrawals was because of their insolvency (hence bankruptcy) right? Celsius really had them screwed over. Whilst the Celsius thing was definitely a bad move for them, props to Ray Youssef for accepting responsibility and trying to cover all the lost funds.

sa mga hindi updated kung bakit congested ang blockchain network ng BTC

https://coingeek.com/ordinals-brings-nfts-to-btc-upsetting-small-blockers-once-again/

baka next na mag cause ng congestion is Defi, gamit ang blockchain ng BTC

Just a heads up: as much as possible iwasan ang news/info na nilalabas CoinGeek. Ang plataporma ng CoinGeek is mostly propaganda against Bitcoin(and other cryptos), and promotion towards BSV.
1411  Local / Pilipinas / Re: Sobrang Taas na Gas Fee today? on: May 06, 2023, 07:26:17 PM
Ang mukhang di lang apektado ngayon sa fees ay BSC at Polygon networks.

Hindi sila affected since totally separate blockchains sila at wala silang current catalyst para tumaas ang demand ng blocksize. Whereas affected ang fees ng Arbitrum at Optimism since layer-2 protocols sila.
1412  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Crypto Cetaceans: How Whales Consume Bitcoin on: May 06, 2023, 06:42:25 PM
No Sir, that is not the case I am trying to say maximum of the time whales don't hesitate to grab the opportunity but at the same time, normal traders and investors make dumb decisions. They are not divine beings but they are sharp-minded. They use to take the opportunity I was reading a post a few days ago where the different views of fear and greed were explained by according to the OP there you need to be greedy when others are fearful and need to be fearful when others are .... This policy is just discussed by most of the people but it is followed by the Whales most of the times.

That doesn't change much. A lot of those "whales" are just lucky enough to be into bitcoin/crypto very early on, and a lot of them are just as dumb as the typical retail trader/investor. Remember the 3AC debacle? Yea, then imagine those "whale" entities that people don't publicly know about.
1413  Local / Pilipinas / Re: Sobrang Taas na Gas Fee today? on: May 06, 2023, 05:07:11 AM
Mataas fees dahil sobrang hyped ngayon ang Ordinals NFTs. Sa ethereum naman, daming traders nung bagong $PEPE memecoin. Kung gusto mo makatipid maybe wait it out muna, if willing ka maghintay ng a few months.
1414  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I have 2 questions that bother me on: May 05, 2023, 07:17:53 PM
1. There's no one answer to this as there's different models of token pre-selling. Some do first-come, first-served, some do it with a static price, etc. I'm not sure how Binance usually does it because I never joined a presale on their platform.

2. Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. It will totally depend on valuations.
1415  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Is it time for Old Signature campaigns to redesign? on: May 05, 2023, 06:56:41 PM
Quite the opposite, signatures serve more for the purpose of brand recognition than to attract new users through clicks. Any significant change in appearance only undoes what has been built for a long time.
You can change designs without necessarily changing your brand kit.


If we look at the big world brands, they very rarely changed anything in their visual appearance. Even when there were some changes, the basic form was mostly kept.
Doesn't apply — we're talking about marketing/advertising material here, not the entire branding of the business/company.

1416  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Crypto Cetaceans: How Whales Consume Bitcoin on: May 05, 2023, 08:20:23 AM
People always look at "whales" as some sort of divine being that always wins their trades and have total control over the markets lmao — well in fact this is very far from the truth. Whales also make dumb trades a lot of times, though obviously far less frequently than the typical retail trader/investor.
1417  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Is it time for Old Signature campaigns to redesign? on: May 05, 2023, 07:30:35 AM
You forgot with Roobet where they have changed their signature for 5+ times if I'm not mistaken, not to mention Coinomize [1] have different 5 signatures and 8 avatars sets that their participants are free to choose.

I'm not really sure if changing signature can be have a strong impact, but it's not wrong if they want to have a new design based on their recent update or promotions.

Changing signature designs at least once every few months should have a positive effect. But if I were to guess — signature campaigns is just a minority of most sites' traffic sources so they probably don't bother.


I still remember mk4's avatar Bitcoin wizard

Crap I'm not sure if I saved a copy.
1418  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Is it time for Old Signature campaigns to redesign? on: May 05, 2023, 02:49:06 AM
Probably just let them be. If they see less clicks because of their signature designs being not-modern, I'm pretty sure they'll attempt to redesign their signature. Maybe the design simply doesn't matter that much. (or they just don't care lol.)
1419  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is trezor censorship real? and how does it work, and what impact would it have o on: May 04, 2023, 03:15:10 PM
The coinjoin protocol is based on Bitcoin's Proof-of-Stake (PoS) protocol. It allows miners to mine blocks at a low cost, without having to worry about fees, which are a problem for Bitcoin. This is a good thing, because it makes it easier for miners to mine blocks faster and more profit is made from the block mining.

So what's the point of it?

It's an open-source protocol, and there are a lot of people working on it right now. I don't know how it works, but it's pretty simple to implement. You need to be able to set up a network, and the network will be used to pay for the transaction.

The idea is to have a peer-to-peer network, which is the most important part of the protocol. If you want to send money If you want to send a message to someone, you have to pay for it.

It's not hard at all tBitcoin, but it's not easy to implement it in other cryptocurrencies.

I'm a bit confused about the concept of coinjoin. Is it possible to implement it

? ? ?

What. Coincoin isn't a new consensus mechanism and is definitely not proof of stake. I'm oversimplifying it, but it's basically just a mixing scheme for people to potentially gain various levels of privacy through obfuscation.

Put 100% of my net worth into it lmao. But to be fair, I was a fresh college graduate at that time so I only had like lower 4 figures in USD which was everything to me back then. Fortunately enough, it was definitely the right move to make.
