I also believe jobs can build value and skillset for them to later be used by people as a stepping stone to starting their own businesses. Basically, the story you described is an example of how one might use his or her time as an employee to acquire the resources necessary for self-sufficiency. Not every work leads to entrepreneurship, some people experience stagnant careers that limit their growth or equip them with the needed competencies in running businesses. Besides, not everyone wants to own a company; rather, there exist those who find satisfaction and stability while working for other people. It is vital to note that jobs might serve as good grounds for learning but may also not suit everybody perfectly.

Printing excessive amounts of paper money is a problem that can lead to consequences like inflation especially when it has been done on several occasions such as with American dollars during COVID-19 pandemic which caused a fast rise in prices. More often than not, centralization favors the rich rather than average people, thus increasing wealth gap. However, it is important for one to note that bitcoin and other virtual currencies are faced with their own challenges as well. For instance, there is huge ownership inequality in which a small fraction of bitcoin owners hold the greater part of supply.

As much as decentralized coins give users more control over their cash, they come with risks too such as scams and hacks. In just the year 2021 itself, fraudulent activities accounted for more than 14 billion dollars loss due to crypto thefts. If bitcoin were to be more accepted by society, it might risk being centralized again resulting into problems like those faced by fiat currency. Therefore despite having advantages and disadvantages for both systems, perhaps finding an equilibrium between them could be the best way to go ahead.

I get what you mean, you are saying that investing altcoin will give more profit, sure in a very special case altcoin can go x10 or even x100 in a short time, but there are thousands of altcoin now, and dozens new altcoins every month, statistically speaking you are more likely to marry a celebrity rather than choosing the right altcoin that give you x10 or even x100 profit. And the alternative when you get a shitcoin you will more likely to lose all of your money when the developer just ran and the coin become worthless.

Just like any other investment, in crypto more profit will have more risk. Bitcoin might give you small profit in a short time but it's far less risky compared to altcoin. And you can start buying bitcoin with very small amount, so you don't need to be rich to buy bitcoin.

China’s economic future could go a few different ways. One option is that China adapts by focusing more on domestic innovation and technology, and building stronger trade relationships with other countries. This could help China find new areas of growth and keep developing, though possibly more slowly.

Another possibility is that China makes policy changes to fix current problems, like improving the business environment and attracting more foreign investment. There’s also the chance that China could increase government control over the economy, which might offer short-term stability but could affect long-term efficiency. Lastly, China might seek new trade partners and alliances outside the West to reduce reliance on Western markets and find new economic opportunities.

I think this argument make more sense rather then a media in a level of Forbes just being lazy and use AI, I didn't say they are good, what I mean is that they have the budget to hire professionals. I mean it more likely that they use AI to generate headline that will attract more view not just because don't want to make an effort to make their own headline, and they definitely do some redacting before publish their article.

After all nowadays media exist only for views and ads. They will do anything to get more view and ads, including using AI generated headline to feed the algorithm. We as the reader are the one that decide whether we want to supports their practice by clicking their article or not.

I got your point, if Bitcoin is widely adopted, it could change how we think about and approach economic growth. It might lead to more thoughtful growth focused on saving and investing rather than just spending on unnecessary things. This could result in better investments in new ideas and infrastructure, and avoid wasting resources on things driven by inflation.
However, Bitcoin could also encourage smarter financial decisions and create a more balanced and efficient economy, focusing on essentials and long-term stability. The idea that Bitcoin would hurt the economy doesn’t consider how new financial tools and changes in central bank policies could adapt. Overall, Bitcoin’s impact could be positive by shaping a healthier, more resilient economy aimed at sustainable growth and long-term success.

Well first thing, I will lose my job, I work on blockchain industry, and as freelance most of my client also from blockchain Industry. I will need to find a local job with low salary definitely. I don't have much portfolio on crypto but still I will lose some money. But the certain thing is I will get any job that I can, and I think there is also many people who will lose their job so the competition will be tight and fierce, I am not sure what will happened next, but surely I will be depressed for a few days.

I can relate to OP, I am more easily to spend 'digital' money, not just on crypto, any money that is digital. I think it's because we don't hold it physically, while before this time we always have physical money, and digital money easier to be spent, we can spend it while laying around on the sofa in our house. But maybe the newer generation that has known digital money since they understand how to spend it will have different perspective.  

I don't think I would call a government a dictatorship just because they want twitter to be banned. But if the government is truly freeze people bank accounts then it's truly dictatorship, people will lose their job and there will be chaos just because an X profile. Moreover the Brazil's government is also not that smart, if the problem is they want to block some twitter profiles, they could just pay some bot farmer to mass report the twitter profiles as how it usually done by other governments.

It is true that casinos competition in this forum is very tight, and promotion and bonuses is very important, but there is also other factors that make casino stand out among other, by looking at their site and how they introduce their service in this forum GameGram wants to highlight their PvP games, and not many casino do that. Just tried the Rock Scissors Paper, it's fun, but I hope they will soon introduce more PvP games, then I am sure they will get their own customer niche.

I am fortunate that I still earn more than enough to supports my family, but I have seen many of my friends marriage collapsing because of economic struggle, and it's not like they aren't employed or they don't work hard, they both was employee but the husband got laid off because the company need to do some efficiency

.The one that suffering the most of this bad economics is the children and the next generation, they started with less nutritious food, and less facility and privilege, while the competition is getting more fierce everyday.

Dubai finally approving crypto for salary payments is a big step, but it’s kind of overdue. The city has been a hub for blockchain startups and events for a while now, so you’d think this would’ve happened sooner. Still, it’s great to see Dubai catching up and officially embracing crypto in a way that could make a real impact. This move could really boost confidence in using digital currencies for more everyday things, like getting paid.

Who buys or owns most of Bitcoin's won't have big influence on Bitcoin decentralization, Bitcoin's blockchain continues to be secured by thousands of independent miners around the world, and participation is open to anyone with an internet connection. The problem will occur when big company invest in mining and take over 51% of Bitcoin network. Bu I think the Bitcoin community will remain vigilant in advocating for decentralization, whether it’s by supporting smaller miners, using decentralized exchanges, or developing new technologies that keep the power distributed. While Bitcoin hasn’t fully “sold out,” the growing influence of large entities is something we should watch closely to ensure that it stays true to its decentralized roots.

Yang di video itu sudah pasti skenario iklan tidak benar-benar terjadi di dunia nyata, walaupun memang memperihatinkan. Tapi tidak bisa menyalahkan pemeran di iklan tersebut, kondisi ekonomi membuat mereka akan mengambil kesempatan apapun untuk mendapatkan uang, apalagi kalau iklan judi pasti bayarannya banyak.

Saya dan mungkin kebanyakan user di Bitcointalk disini sebenarnya tidak masalah juga dengan judi, toh hampir semua Signature Campaign sekarang juda adalah casino. Yang harusnya dituntut adalah regulasi terkait judi online yang sekarang mengkhawatirkan, uang-uang kelas menengah hilang dibawa bandar judi yang tinggal diluar negeri, dan juga backing-backing nya. Kalau mau diregulasi dan di beri legalitas, minimal sebagian uang bisa masuk ke pajak, dan pemerintah bisa membuat peraturan tentang Responsible Gambling dan memaksa pemilik situs judi online menerapkannya.

Pernah baca-baca dan ngulik sedikit soal silent payment ini, tapi karena wallet yang support silent payment ini masih sangat minim jadi belum pernah nyoba, dan belum ada kebutuhan juga buat pakai fitur ini.

Tapi dari yang pernah saya baca juga, komunitas dan expert beberapa masih banyak yang tidak menyukai Silent Payment ini alasannya salah satunya karena masalah scalability, jadi karena tiap transaksi generate address baru bisa bikin blockchain size nya Bitcoin jadi terlalu besar, terlebih Bitcoin sekarang saja sudah ada isu scalability juga.

Trading is a skill too actually, if you don't have ambitions then you wouldn't even try to trade or earn profit from your trade, you would just live your life empty. The fact that you are still want to trade and enjoying life means that you still have ambitions.

And you shouldn't think that people who do skillful work don't enjoy their life, by learning that skill and become the best at what they do is how those skillful people enjoying their life. Enjoying life is not always about money, its' about getting fully content, and one of the way is being the best at something, be better than other people and most of all be the best version of ourself.

I got what you are talking about at the last paragraph here, but your title is quite missleading, I wouldn't blame it on the money itself. Money is just a tool, just like a knife it can be used to cook a good meal, or to kill people, its we can't blame it on the knife, the blame is to the one holding it  what they use it for. And I do agree that on todays society people were valued by the wealth that their own, but again it's not the wealth fault, even if there is no money people will still valued others by some other thing, their status, their ancestry etc.

Even tho the number is small but there is still good people that has a lot of money, and the mentality to blame money is the one that discourage people from gaining it. The people who blame money for problem, unconsciously wouldn't want to make an effort to get money, those kind of people wouldn't gain wealth, and whether we accept it or not, the best way to contribute to humanity and to be useful for other needs money.

Kalau saya sendiri sih bukannya anti Meme-Coin tapi emang gak pernah suka dan gak pernah punya / hold meme coin, karena menurut saya memecoin ya cuma ada karena komunitasnya, gak ada utilitas dan kegunaanya, kita dapet duit cuma dari hype orang yang beli setelah kita, hampir gak ada bedanya sama skema ponzi kan kalau gitu, karena pada dasarnya gak ada produk dan utilitas yang dijual, cuma menjual hypenya aja.
