I think there are dozens of freelancing websites that pay you in crypto such as LaborX. I never try them myself, so I can't comment on their reliability. I'm pretty sure you can find online reviews or compare other websites easily though.
I am not aware of any, so thank you for the recommendation pointer. I just checked out the site and it seems a lot like the regular freelance websites such as fiverr or upwork, but with less activity. Hopefully it turns out to be a bit more privacy inclined than them. Just to check, am I on the right website [1]? [1] https://laborx.com/jobs - Jay - |

some novice investors and traders have more concerns about the assets they own. especially when market conditions are not very friendly. they look at a market that has fallen sharply and then sees a move that makes them happy. Of course, there is a sense of wanting to take advantage of seeing the correction happen again.
That is one quick way to get burned out of the market quickly. If you are confident on your choice of asset and did your research beforehand, then you should not be bothered by unfriendly market conditions. This difficult for new holders, but easier for more experienced ones. Without trading skills, trying to profit from changing markets would result is losses. - Jay - |

The website looks clean, and gets extra points cause it is default on darkmode. It is a brilliant idea for crypto users to get rewarded for their skills and efforts.
Maybe Project Development board fits this better.
Would there be other platforms like this, but for those who are not as skilled in tech? More like for other freelancers like writers, translators etc.

I would consider it to offer more protection than most hardware wallets, if done properly.
Alright, I understand now. An arigapped device require more careful attention to set up and use properly. I am aware of how to sign a transaction on an airgapped device and another device with a watch only wallet, but I am not sure how to properly check for updates and maintain the latest version of the software. A hardware wallet efficacy would depend on the particular product and its specifics. I don't store these electronically. Such back ups I do on paper.
Understood. I am aware not to store sensitive data like seedphrases electronically, but your first reply seemed to suggest you do that sometimes. For seed phrases that you use regularly, employ reliable protection hardware such as Trezor or any other open-source hardware wallet that has proven its reliability.
For regularly used wallets, I still keep this on an airgapped device. Once you get a hang of it, transferring out of such wallets get easier to do. - Jay - |

He is somewhat correct. There is surely no shortage of casinos and gambling houses around different neighbors but it is so easy to pull out your mobile, top up your account and start gambling for as long as you want.
One can get addicted to both and would do anything to either get to a casino or use their mobile, but the relative ease of access in one option makes it harder to break from.
Self discipline is key to avoid getting stuck to online gambling as well as filling your time with other habits.

Would you consider the permanently airgapped computer to offer the same level of protection as the hardware wallet or paper wallet? If not, which would you recommend as the highest level of security for cold storage? Also, how do you store seedphrases and passphrases on a computer? Simply as a file or do you have the wallet set up fully on the device. - Jay - |

is it possible that bitcoin will increase again in the near future, or will it decrease again.
No one has a crystal ball to predict what happens in the near or distant future, though the latter is considerably easier to attempt to predict. If you are a long term holder you should not be worried about what happens in the near future, or which DoJ said what. If you are a trader then, you should not have to ask questions like above. - Jay - |

why does a post or thread get locked in this forum?
Can be locked by moderators if its a spam megathread. Can be locked by the admin or mod if its an informative post that does not need replies. This is usually combined with it being stickied. Can be locked by the creator if they have gotten their answer. Can be locked by the user if the discussion has become extensive and run out its relevance. Can be locked by scammers who does not want other members to point out their scam attempt. What are some criteria(do's or don'ts), that makes a posts or thread get locked?
Do not create a spam megathread. If you have gotten your answer, lock the thread yourself, or it would be reported to the moderators. Is it a good thing to have some posts or thread locked?
Yes if it fits any of point 1 above. It helps to prevent spam. - Jay - |

I'm just upholding the bitcointalk forum rules that apply
You are thinking too hard about this and if you wish to pursue all the merit sharing which does not count as high quality, subjectively to you, it would take up a huge chunk of your day. If you are right that it is merit abuse, they would not have enough to send around that matters as they have to keep generating them. If you are wrong, you are tagging someone for a random merit transaction they considered worth it "Therefore, it is highly recommended to reward only high-quality posts." High-quality is subjective. - Jay - |

This is the internet. Do not reveal your trading or wallet balance here as it gives random people too much information about you.
You could recognize breaking even after a long wait, without oversharing.

Could it be a correction of the price?
As you mentioned there have been positive news in the recent past which indirectly and loosely affected bitcoin and could have pushed the price now and now there is a retrace back to the more accurate valuation.
It could also be a mini bull run and the price keeps creeping up with the coming weeks.

Probably put all exchanges on high alert in expectation of the hacker moving it through them. This could be extended to mixers as well which they think the hacker would try to move it through first.
In their characteristic fashion, they would likely try damage control as public funds are involved, and shift the blame to how the crypto system is set up which lead to the loss and encourage people to save with banks instead.

I don't know, it feels like some people do this trick in accumumulating sats in the long run.
This could work to accumulate some sats if done right. For example, one who held through the last bull run, cause they have not reached their target profit has the exact same amount of bitcoin as they did during the bear market, but another who sold at the peak or some percentage off it and bought back at the bottom or some percentage off it, would have a much higher amount of bitcoin in their portfolio. The downside here is you have to be constantly checking the price as well as holding some stable coins which you exchanged for bitcoin, while waiting for the retrace. - Jay - |

Crystal Palace holding Newcastle to a draw has allowed Manchester United the chance to put a bit of daylight between them and the Magpies. This comes after Palace squeezed out a draw against United themselves during the last matchweek.
Arsenal are also looking to restore their eight point lead at the top of the table, or a five point lead with a game in hand shoul City win in the earlier kick off tomorrow.
In the early kickoff tomorrow, Leeds United try to glide as far as possible away from the relegation zone as they go up against high flying Brentford.

Hodling is a more consistent means of benefiting from bitcoin and does not require any sort of technical skill to utilize, all you need to know is how to properly set up a wallet and back it up, making it accessible to even newbies to bitcoin. But checking the info-graphics, I do not consider hodling to be a linear path to profits, there are pitfalls and market volatility which makes it difficult to hold on to your coins. There is also the emotional development one has to go through to hodl through different market situations. HODL, don't trade!  Should this apply to everyone or those who do not profit from it? No trading strategy guarantees profits, but there would be people who get net profit from trading. - Jay - |

Are people like JP Morgan intentionally bad-mouthing Bitcoin? I thought he knew better, in 2020 this man was saying something good about the future of crypto and Bitcoin then today he said something else, he called Bitcoin a fraud, what is he doing?
People speak based on their personal interest. When bitcoin's value is pumping talking about it going to the moon is going to attract more attention, and when the value is a bit stuck, preaching the fud gospel would attract more attention so they say that. It is all down to personal interest. If Satoshi adds more bitcoin to it's supply which is impossible wouldn't that collapse all the decentralized / freedom ideas that Bitcoin was built for? I think now I lost respect for Morgan, he thinks like a child.
He is suggesting satoshi would show up when bitcoin hits its max supply in over a hundred years and mock us. At least he believes satoshi is super human to be alive at that time. Learn to view people's comments separately from their personality and expect anything from anyone. - Jay - |

In any case, either btc mass adoption is already close to us, or the marketing departments have understood the prospects for such innovations. After all, I fell for their trick and bought cookies, right. It probably was done to attract attention just as it did. Global mass adoption cannot be second guessed as you would experience it fully in your day to day activities. A smart employee probably suggested that they add it to their list of currencies. It would be interesting to know what other food products you have seen the bitcoin logo on?
None in real life, but there were some good ones in the pizza contests that has been held on the forum. - Jay - |

To anyone who wants to check it out, here is the link to the scam accusation [1]. Any discussion on that can be brought up in that thread. There must be a simple way to secure account?
- Do not click on random links as they can be phishing links looking to steal your log in details, - Do not reveal your forum related email address on your profile or anywhere in the internet, - Do not reuse the same email used on multiple platforms, - Do not respond to unsolicited emails which require an action from you, like clicking a link, - Use a secure password, not one you can easily remember, - Stake your (account) bitcoin address [2].

Is it possible for the same thing to happen to Mixing balance from YoMix? Can these transactions be tracked?
The only mixing service that would not come under the radar of centralized exchanges are those that do not really muddy the trail of the transactions making it easy for them to track the source and store up that data for future reference. The attack on privacy exists and involves all mixing or coinjoining services. Avoiding centralized exchanges would make transacting from mixers easier and without hitches. - Jay - |

If you are worried whether or not a particular user ignored you, that is a good indicator that they were likely right to do so in the first place.
Except you are a troll or a shitposter, it does not matter and it should not bother you if you have been ignored and there is no point trying to decipher who has you on their list.
If you are a troll or shitposter, fix up
People should be able to privately avoid to see replies or boards they do no wish to see.
