I would love to see the coins that you are referring to.

While indeed short-term, there can be some coins in the top 20 that can overtake bitcoin in terms of profitability specially in a good alt bullrun, it cannot be as good as bitcoin in the long run because if you have been around in this industry for a while, you will see that the rankings change a lot and some coins that were pretty good and had good utilities have removed from the list. There are good shitcoins as well that can also over take bitcoin in terms of profitability but this takes a lot of luck(not worth it) or skill which can still pose some risks(risks depend on your skills and temperament towards your investments).

So, which coin is truly profitable and will there be any coin that would surpass bitcoin?

The way I see it, this depends on the type of investor you are; how much time you can dedicate in crypto investing, risk tolerance, knowledge, experience, emotional control and so much more. Because not every investor has the same capital, same mindset, same techniques, schedules etc. It would be much better to stop comparing and start searching for what routines and ways fits you best and gives you the maximum potential of profitability through trial and error.

As for surpassing bitcoin, I don't see it happening in the near future. Bitcoin right now is just too dominant in terms of popularity, ease of access and usage. I don't know though in the far future but in my lifetime, I think I will only see bitcoin as the one on top.

Lol, I actually thought that this was a fight that is already set to happen and had a specific date already. But seriously though, it would be pretty interesting to see how this fight goes. I personally think as well that there's no stopping this fight from happening anymore since a lot of boxing fans are already anticipating this bout. Matches happen depending on the money anyway so unless something bad happens again(which I hope will never happen), I believe this fight is already as good as set.

Well the idea itself isn't really that bad if I were to give my own opinion about this. However, there will be trust issues with the admin that you have mentioned. But yes, this isn't a very heavy problem that cannot be solved. Just have to have a reputable enough existing gambling site to act as an admin so that trust issues can be minimized and gradually improve more in the positive side. This is something new and pretty interesting and may attract a lot of gamblers looking for new ways to have fun. I wonder if some gambling sites would really adopt such an idea.

The way I see it, only a few are left that truly cares about privacy. Specially now that mass adoption requires at least a bit of centralization.

And yes, I agree that what binance did is truly alarming. This just shows that binance has let go of it's last bit of consideration for the decentralization that this industry mainly stands for (other than fixing existing problems) in exchange of being able to freely operate and grow their business.

Although as a crypto holder and trader myself, I admit that I agree to compromise as well and disclose personal information just to be able make use of what I earn along with the profits I gain through trading since it is much easier to deposit when using fiat on centralized exchanges (specially on binance here in my country). Life is tough, it is  what it is. But that does not mean that I am willing to put up with all the crap an exchange does which can endanger my hard earned assets.

TBH, I right now am currently hopping from one exchange to another looking for the most crypto enthusiast friendly ones. Not that I am expecting much from centralized exchanges but at least a bit more reasonable approach and has some back bone to not make unreasonable bans or whatever unless the matter involves issues between the exchange itself and the user and not some outside variables like government conflicts etc.

See, if binance can do it to the relatives of Russian people, then it can certainly do it to me and the others as well. Only thing binance needs to do is make up an excuse and we can get ourselves banned right there and then.

I honestly do not use binance that much anymore. Except for depositing fiat or for trading alts that are not on other exchanges. although some of binance's features along with their earn sections were quite appealing to me back then, it is not that worth it in my eyes anymore after a few things that they did and also because of the fact that there currently are better offers on other exchanges nowadays.

If one day, another good crypto exchange becomes available here in my country that supports or has the features I need which binance currently has I'd definitely forget about the existence of binance.

The American government really can, there are quite a lot of ways available to really end the war if they really wanted to. The thing is, anither variable that the American government has to consider are the sacrifices they have to make to end this war; whther it is worth all the trouble and will it benefit them in the future. Let's face it, these big countries have egos that are as big as their reputation and ranking. No one would compromise for a losing deal.

This conspiracy theory is quite plausible and may possibly be true in some cases. About other exchanges helping, well I guess every man for himself? I don't know. What's sure though is that when exchange hacks happen a lot of people get affected specially newbies because most of the newbies make exchanges as wallets and keep majority of their funds in those exchanges. Heck, if exchange addresses accept altcoins the way normal wallets custodial/noncustodial would, I bet they'd opt for an exchange rather than a safe wallet.

Although it is private, there are still a couple of large share holders that needs to approve of this deal before it happens and Elon have won all of these people's agreement by his offers(including publicly known and the unknown to public). Which is I admit a great achievement.

It would be optional like having free access and a paid access with paid access having more benefits and features.

Yes, besides the fact that he does not own doge, he has never officially announced that he will utilize doge as a utility token for Twitter or whatever the hopeful people are wishing for. I feel sad for those who bought because of those wild rumors. Still though, I wish Elon does use doge so that at least people would be able to get some profits if they haven't sold yet.

It's just right to be skeptical with all that's been going on nowadays. And I must say, what you are talking about somehow makes sense but I think it isn't the whales but instead the ones below the whales and the smaller ones. This is because whales don't care that much about short term prices and are probably buying as much as they can every dip. Only short term holders and the previously mentioned worry about these short term dips that are mostly high leverage traders worry about these short term dips. Although some do profit from scalping, nothing beats the gains when the market is bullish.

It is really sad to see people dyung because of the recklessness and carelessness of other people specially people who are breadwinners. Regardless of the reasons why a person got drunk in the first place, he  or she should never drive. And the people who accompanies these drunk drivers are equally responsible for not advising nor preventing these drunk drivers from driving while drunk. Good thing this law has been thought off. I wish this reduces the cases of drunk drivung related accidents.

Greetings mga kabayan!

Nung nakaraan, gumawa ako ng isang thread sa AltcoinDiscussion na kung saan maaring pag usapan ang kung ano anong bagay tungkol sa SocialFi o mga existing social media sites na nag e.integrate ng crypto o may planong mag integrate ng crypto sa mga kani-kanilang mga platforms. Pati na rin sa mga earning potential at iba pa.

Sadly, wala akong nakuhang mga responses. Siguro wala pa masyadong interesado sa SocialFi dun sa international side ng forum kaya walang nag bother mag respond.

So ngayon, paste ko dito link at baka interesado kayo sa topic na'to.

Basahin mo saglit kabayan, at kung interesado ka sa topic, share mo naman thoughts mo dito, pag usapan natin.

Bump. Mag memerit din ako pag me nagustuhan ako.

Yes, You read that right. Binance has taken their bans against Russian people up a notch. Which is quite clever on one side and on the other, quite unfair. Imagine being on a different country miles away from Russia but having relatives there and you suddenly see that your account has just been banned from binance. That'd be pretty infuriating.

I really can't decide myself whether this action is proper or not.

For people out there though that get to read this post and may get affected by this, I advise that you start taking precautions and transfer to a different exchange.

Anyway, what do you guys think about this?


News link: https://cointelegraph.com/news/binance-blocks-crypto-accounts-of-relatives-tied-to-the-russian-government

There definitely are quite a few countries that I did not expect to show up in such a list. You really cannot judge a country based on just a few things you know about them. And yup, as expected my country is nowhere to be found on the list. I gotta say though, Singapore is quite amazing.

Edit: It seems like people here aren't that interested about SocialFi just yet..

Seeing the emergence of dozens of Crypto related social media sites, I want to see how the majority of the people here thinks about it. I mean, where else can you get the best opinions in this industry than here where most of the crypto veterans are?

Sooner or later this topic will get talked about anyway so why not just start it now right? Besides, it just makes sense to question how blockchain and the emergence of web3 will disrupt social media networks in the near future and the challenges it will face since Social media has already become a big part of our lives already specially the younger generation.

And so, I am creating this thread having the sole purpose of talking about Socialfi and other social media sites that are slowly integrating crypto into their platforms, earning opportunities, effects, some personal experiences and more!
(Not gonna be very strict about this I only request everyone to please stay on the subject at least)

-I won't be starting this thread with explaining what SocialFi is though, since it is easily searchable. But still, for your convenience I'll be placing a link below that explains a bit about SocialFi.

I want to start with a hot topic like this one: "SocMeds(SocialFi) in crypto space vs SocMeds outside crypto space."

Nowadays, I've been seeing lots of social media sites that are related to cryptos popping out one after another which are composed of bad, good and great interfaces and functions. Most of these sites offers a lot of benefits to its users. Be it in terms of data ownership, earning tokens(altcoins) while socializing, built in NFT market place where you can create, promote and sell your NFTs or whatever.

Now with all of these new social media sites, with awesome new features you just have to ask yourself; - Why is it that people still refuse to leave instagram, twitter etc.? It really made me wonder and so I tried putting myself into their shoes(though it didn't fit that well 🤣) and tried to look at things in their perspective.

This is what I realized:

- They have dozens of contents already which took hours of work; blood, sweat and tears(on some content creators, literally). Which can be reuploaded but would have low chances of gaining as much traffic(views or reactions) as it did on where it was originally posted on.

- A well established fame and reputation on their respective handles(it would be a nightmare to start from zero again specially for the mediocre content creators).

- Lack of audience or content creators having the same interests in crypto related socmeds.

- They've gotten so used and comfortable on the platform they're in(not all but mostly)

- Most of the features they like in the platform they're in are nonexistent on the new ones or doesn't work in the same way making them uncomfortable.

- Lack of understanding of web 3 or crypto as a whole which isn't really that much of a problem since it is easily solved with research(The thing about this though is not every content creator or viewer has enough interest in this industry or enough time to actually spend hours in researching about how things work in this space).

- Lack of crypto mass adoption or fame(let's face it, we don't even have that much people who are a hundred percent active in this space yet. Good news though is that the numbers are gradually increasing).

These seven predicaments I have mentioned are probably the main reasons why these content creators and viewers refuse to transfer into new social media sites that are related to crypto currencies(SocialFi).

It doesn't get talked about much but this makes most developers that push for crypto related Socmeds to lose self-esteem and become less motivated for improvement despite having a well made platform. Which then leads to poor management and platform development. This then becomes another reason for hesitation of new users to migrate.

Now as for solutions, there aren't really much that I can think of that doesn't need mass adoption of crypto currency. And I reckon that most of the solutions that can be thought of out there have already been tried out at least once.

But still, doesn't this very fact make you more eager to find better solutions?

As for me, I think it would be nice to highlight or focus on the importance of contents/thoughts that makes way for groups of like-minded people with shared interests to interact and socialize, rather than focusing on complicated new features that most of the people unfamiliar with them may not and may find pretty tedious to understand. Besides, it's not like these new features can't be added/introduced gradually as mass adoption and community population and interest increases.

The main goal is to not bombard the new users with all these awesome new features that puzzles them to an extent that it makes them incapable to utilize and socialize comfortably with the community.

I get it, web3 is awesome and all but, what is awesomeness if the traffic you're after can't appreciate and utilize it at all? This just spells disaster.

This is just my opinion though so please don't hate.

How about you guys, what do you think?
let's get this conversation going, come share your thoughts or some of the solutions you can think of!

Wow, thank you so much for the insight. I didn't know a lot about forging and so just had to make do with what I already know.

- Although, my main message is to not overdo things since too much of anything never results to anything good. And besides, you already have life beating the living crap out of you, the energy spent on beating yourself up should be saved instead for the moments that you decide to stand up and try continuing the journey again. Hence the last words; persevere smartly not mindlessly.

Anyway, I have learnt something new again and I am very thankful for your insight. What you have suggested is of great value and would really make sense to use. I really wish I knew about this before I wrote that message, I will keep it in mind though as I write more in the future.

I hope you'd have a great day.

Another thing we can consider as well is that maybe the op himself wants to be hands on with his telegram community like giving tutorials and all which would make it much easier for him if he is only getting referral link from a single gambling website. I mean, it would be a great strategy if he offers walkthroughs to beginners in his telegram. That is, if his subscribers or target subscribers are beginners in online gambling.

Bumping to spread awareness about this scam site.

Reading about this fight triggers my sad vibes. I lost quite a huge bet to a friend in this fight. Although it isn't really a loss since we used the bet to fund a trip to a nearby beach with a few more friends, the bragging rights is what really ticks me off. And almost every time, my damn friend never fails to remind me of his superior prediction skills and brag about it. Saying we should do this often since summer is about to come. Bloody bastard, lol.
