Jimbo's idea is widely adopted now that even altcoins are also used to bet. he could be one of those users wanting to gamble using fiat but also encountered problems or seek anonymity.

i have no idea when BTC started to be used in online casino, BTC was always been associated as gambling coin for those that opposed its existence.

the exchange reputation is irreparable. they can make the users happy upon returning those funds to them but that's just it. people will not send any money to the exchange.

it is easier to establish a new exchange than relaunch an exchange that is linked to one of the biggest scam. never in the history that an exchange associated with scam got the trust back from users they've ripped.
1563  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is your favorites altcoins these days? on: April 16, 2023, 04:57:01 AM
so far altcoins are starting to pump after BTC touches 30k. what i'm watching these days is the VET (Vechain) a sort of Chinese POS token that i've just stake using the Vthor wallet.

token is yet to rise. its still cheap and can easily grow if there really is an altcoin season soon. you might have heard of Vechain if you watch UFC fights.
1564  Economy / Economics / Re: Does People Really Care About Decentralization? on: April 15, 2023, 08:20:01 PM

internet users are not conscious of the information they share about themselves even on social media. they do have school IDs and driver's licenses somehow on their facebook making them not anonymous.

anonymous is a plus but i think not being anonymous is not what decentralization is. it's about no one controlling and collecting data from a decentralized platform, especially in finances.
1565  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: OpenBazaar v3 on: April 15, 2023, 08:06:15 PM

i didn't know they shut down back in 2020. the adoption rate might work this time around. i have no idea how it work since the time i have installed openbazaar and tried searching no one was nearby.

they were just adopting BTC though. if they need more users to come join the market, i think they should also add more altcoins. there are users going to come when that's enabled.

1566  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: we don't have proper education on bitcoin. on: April 15, 2023, 07:55:03 PM
Please correct me if I am wrong
Even in today's modern world, except for a few people in Europe-America, the general public of the entire world does not have a proper understanding of Bitcoin. Sad Sad Except European-American, anyone who have a little idea about Bitcoin also have misconceptions. Due to this problem, many people are unable to invest in a great platform like Bitcoin even if they want to. This problem may not seem like a big deal to many, but think about third world countries. A sad reality is, in my country 80-90% of the population are not familiar with Bitcoin.
Is there any way to solve this problem?

I think that the problem will solve itself out in the near future as Bitcoin becomes more and more adopted. Although I would prefer to see it all happen a bit faster, personally.

Right now we are in the early times when people who do self-research on Bitcoin and then invest in Bitcoin are the ones who will be majorly rewarded in the long term before everyone else catches up. The earliest adopters already have proven this. Although back in 2009-2012 Bitcoin was a very niche thing and not everyone had heard of it, so its understandable that not everyone had the chance to know about it.

Nobody will be allowed to make the excuse of why they did not research and invest in 2023, though...

i remember there are already some universities offering blockchain courses, i'm sure they are also going to cover BTC in thier discussions. for now, the ones that has can be relied on was Antonop's book like The Mastering BTC. that's the closest thing to proper education i guess and then reading the whitepaper. one thing that i see is that its not read by the newcomers since we're all up to trading and making money.

1567  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why only a Bitcoin trading pair is the best thing? on: April 15, 2023, 07:38:09 PM
I think one of the reasons why Bitcoin trading is the best and the best is that when one trades only Bitcoin, his profit will be less than other coins or tokens and vice versa the chances of losing from other coins or tokens will be much less. I personally think that Bitcoin can be the only product for long-term trade management or long-term planning.
If this is for long-term trade, or meaning long-term investment, I do agree that Bitcoin is the best crypto for long-term investment. The proof has been clear, it's trusted. But if this is for daily trades, I think that many traders will also love trading altcoins that have high market caps, or moreover, the new hype with high risks, because they can also earn money from it. But as I said, this will be exactly risky. However, altcoins with small prices will help us to gain more profits than trading Bitcoin moreover if our amount of capital is still small. However, once more, this will again depend on how our trading strategy and habits.

it is the volume that's in BTC/USDT that traders will like and prefer to trade in this pair. for spot traders, the whales with thousands of BTC can easily liquidate the amount especially if he is on the major cex same for buying back.

there are altcoin traders but are often not good for futures or spot because all these altcoins still just follow the price movement of BTC. nothing better than just staying in BTC.
1568  Economy / Speculation / Re: When do you think Bitcoin will hit $1 million for the first time? on: April 15, 2023, 07:08:32 PM
To begin with, bitcoin must reach the $100,000 mark in order to move forward. If you think back to what happened when bitcoin hit $69,000, it is clear that the path to $100,000 is very thorny. When bitcoin reached $69,000 people almost stopped buying it because they were scared and the realization that they would have to wait a very long time for the 2x also played a big role. Who and for what purpose will buy bitcoin when it reaches $100,000? 

when the price hits $100,000, that fear might betray them this time when it's going to rise more than what is expected. the crypto market is unpredictable and while there is a global crisis that will last for years, the price of BTC could be more than $120,000 after halving. while the value of their savings decreases tremendously, they will jump into BTC pushing the price to more than $120K.

i doubt it will reach $1M as said by Balaji though. 2037-2042 probably, it's going to be expensive and investors will look for other altcoins as they see the majority are also going up along with BTC.

Finland I think is not hostile to Russia, they don't have people in the borders wishing to be part of Russia as well. Ukrainians in the Donbas was wishing to be part of Russia which in that region was all Ukraine separatists wanting to be independent.

but i think Sanna Marin won in Finland despite her ridiculous party dance because she is also supported by Nato. it only needs an intelligence report to find out what is going on in Finland before Russia takes action.
1570  Other / Meta / Re: why bitcointalk don't advertise anywhere. on: April 14, 2023, 07:18:23 PM
it's a board to advertise on its community, not a company that will provide services.

bitcointalk is already the biggest crypto forumboard, there is no other that competes with bitcointalk. b because of its useful and unique content, it got organic traffic and new users. although there are other crypto forums, they don't have active users contributing to the content. when Theymos allowed ad auctions, there are many members bidding on the slots but right now he stopped it.
1571  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Binance deposit address expiring on: April 14, 2023, 03:56:40 PM

they didn't say the coins you have will disappear though. if you have an ETH stored in binance, i think your ETH will still be there when they upgrade since they didn't suggest a thing that you need to do.

i did receive an email like this one. not kind important. if they could only give users an option to generate wallet addresses every time, it would be good for users to be anonymous somehow.
1572  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: 10k investment on: April 14, 2023, 03:00:39 PM
XRP had not hit its ATH since 2017 but ADA did. but they are both just crazy tokens that will also be dumped to its knees every bear market so holding it up to 3 years will not be the best way of doing it. you wanna sell it while the price is high. you do not wait for the price to dip after 3 months after BTC hits ATH again. most probably altcoins are the first to be dumped.
1573  Other / Politics & Society / Re: If war starting soon where is the safest locations on: April 13, 2023, 04:57:19 PM

there could be no safe place if the war becomes nuclear. once a nuclear country launches one nuke warhead, they will not stop as US, China, Russia, and all other countries like NoKor will be launching thier nukes as well. there ain't going to stop becuase each will be protecting their own. they will rather burn other countries than them burning of course.

even if you're in the pacific i think you will still be swept when waves are coming due to the bombs. all you can do is pray these super power will not use nukes.
1574  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If I have $40,000 to invest in one #cryptocurrency. on: April 13, 2023, 04:51:03 PM

$VET is my bet.

we all have a preference in viewing which has more potential and which one could be adopted sooner than we see it. thereby one may choose ADA, SOL MATIC. but becuase they are all top tokens in the CMC, i think they all will have their own bull run. whichever you may put your money on, you can be assured you can profit when they soar to their ATH.
1575  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is Technical analysis a must know in crypto trading? on: April 13, 2023, 03:31:20 PM

today you just watch just about anything on video-sharing sites and learn technical analysis by watching tutorials is somewhat ideal for everyone who has a phone.

all there is to have is an interest to learn to trade. which is also difficult to have when you have nothing to invest though. you definitely need some push and money to play around as capital.
1576  Economy / Economics / Re: Swiss Government-Owned Bank PostFinance to Offer Customers bitcoin and ether on: April 12, 2023, 07:53:17 PM

it's a better initiative. there are just 2 ways anyway either banning or just adopting crypto. they should realize that BTC is not going away. we're all seeing the effect of what's happening in the global financial crisis which its BTC that is winning.

their government takeover credit suisse, there could be a chance that the bank will also apply the same. another good news i guess.
1577  Economy / Speculation / Re: FTX recovered $7.3B in Assets and is considering restarting! on: April 12, 2023, 07:11:30 PM
So they first fuck their users and then they expect people to go back using their services as if nothing happened? That category of swallowing these non senses is blocked in the crypto community.😉 
At least they didn't abandon their users. They restored their investor's hope to believe in them once more. It's left for those who choose to continue to use their service or not.

You should be thankful that many of their users are going to be refunded their money back.

Could you share also press where it says this? I'm trying to find something but I don't see nothing  Undecided
Link to where you can find the information
https://www.reuters.com/technology/bankrupt-crypto-exchange-ftx-has-recovered-73-bln-assets-attorney-2023-04-12/

if the reason is just to refund the users, they will open it for claiming the tokens back. but digaran has a point. because there is nothing to hope for as they couldn't expect users to come back and use thier services once again.

i couldn't think of someone who would vouch for FTX to restore the reputation of this exchange. they lost the battle. allowing the users to withdraw will be good.
1578  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will the altcoin holders hang on until the bull run comes ? on: April 12, 2023, 06:40:41 PM

you will need to wait for the price to pump again. and if you sell now and then suddenly the price goes up, you will again regret selling.
while there is no altcoin season yet. it's a reason to buy more for more profit when another pump comes. yes, holders hang on to the coins they got until they see substantial profit before selling.

there must have been many holding dogecoin like you as well who feel disappointed because it goes up when you least expect it.
1579  Economy / Economics / Re: Woman loses $73,000 in Crypto Investment Fraud -Scammer plays Book of Friendship on: April 12, 2023, 04:22:00 PM

Coco is such a sneaky sweet guy and is now richer after disappearing. i think old women are prone to scams since they are the loneliest person when their kids are already grown and they have none to talk to. and having a new friend would give them something to do.

i wouldn't really blame the greed, everyone wants to make more money for their kids. the prob is just that she also entrusted her money to someone she had not met.
1580  Economy / Economics / Re: Could there be a new financial system not dependent on USD? on: April 12, 2023, 03:56:23 PM

with more countries joining BRICS, it could be possible. so far they are growing though.

Macron just recently agreed to settle with Yuan in trading with China. France will not be the last to settle Yuan in trading with China. China is becoming the center of the world as they are the biggest trading partner of most countries. China certainly is the biggest threat to US dominance therefore the possibility of not just a cold war against the US. a military conflict is about to ignite in the Pacific already.
