Bitcoin is a decentralized thing reason why it looks centralized is because the platform has a large amount of it makes a huge amount of market manipulations; everyone have the capability to have this bitcoin and not just keep it limited to the community like the centralized tokens. People can transact with their bitcoin and do what ever they want, buy other coins, sell their asset, use bitcoin as a mode of payment, etc. People keep buying and selling there's still a demand of bitcoin if there's no more any value will loosen up but seems like not will happen again.

Most of the stable coins are bound into a local currency, for example, the BUSD, USDT and another stable coin which is bound with the USD price. They keep stable but not as always, remember the issue regarding the Luna with the pair of stable coins even though they called stable coins, unexpectedly people keep selling their assets and use the stable coins to prevent their losses, as long as the project of those coins does disobey the rule of the SEC there's nothing the issue with it. Like the recently added feature of the Paypal they release their coins too.

Satoshi is just a small portion of the bitcoin only, and it doesn't make too much impact if you are just a small investor, else you are one of the whales who hold a large amount of bitcoin this every action you make will affect the market people can sell their coins too or grab the opportunity to buy but if just a small portion of satoshi only seems not have an impact at all. Another thing is economy may vary depending on the current state of the world if the transaction or trades of a different country is good or not that may affect the economic growth. Each country that is connected into it have a changes or decisions in their it may affect the people who transact to them.

Not as always will you fulfill your work at the full 8 hours, sometimes you can easily do with the workload at least a 2-4 hours so people now will do nothing in the office or else they will seek more task just to prevent get nothing to do in their work station and will get noticed by their manager and supervisors, lets accept the fact that this always happens in work. Also those people in the work-from-home set up doesn't need to deal too much time for their transportation, breakfast, etc. which consumes time before the work time actually starts so sure they will less productive. But if you are kind of boss doesn't want to have an employee get idle I guess gives all the possible task into them and have a weekly report.

Each year the price of land raise and also the inflation reason why most of the items for house or real state is getting expensive. The reason why people doing an investment here immediately is because they can make a passive income with the real state, you can see the potential of this sometimes the location matters too if its near to the market, malls, highways and etc that's convenient to the people to have the things they need the higher the price, also another thing is they can use those real state to as apartment or to rent to other people of course there's a running cashflow in your hand if you don't want yet to settle on that place.

Before that was people thought about Bitcoin more on the dark market but with the potential of it and being decentralized people sees the potential of it also with the hype of different project bitcoin now known by people not only use of it instead with the benefits of it's security and have the anonymity.
Anyone today can buy a number of Satoshi or even bitcoin if you are getting worried about the number of people who have this we cannot control it because they have the money. Else if you are afraid of your investment better to make a plot with the market price movement to prevent unrealized loss.

If you subscribe with Coinbase or another exchange, they keep always a notification but the alert regarding with the account's suspicious activity is quite rare issue, if that happens in my case, I will not open the email instead, I will use another device to verify if my account has a suspicious activity anything now are prone with this hackers one mistake can get all of the information you have. We know that the coinbase before have an issue with the data breach so possible that your data is already exposed. If possible change all the related accounts on it to have another layer of security to prevent further damage on your side.

With the use of the hot wallets, most likely it's just on the login only that there's a verification after that you can now access your wallet, if the hackers know your seed phrase they can easily use those to login into other device and use your seed phrase and steal your coins. Reason why electrum supported the use of the hardware wallet which like the Trezor and the Ledger, this wallet has another layer of confirmation for each login, and transaction so only in your device authorization can accept the transaction. If you have a budget don't conserve yourself to a layer of security.

Bitcoin is not a haven, but it's already crested the reputation among all other coins. People risk their assets just to have a bitcoin reason why is they saw the potential it shows since from it's bottom and people already gained profit, knowledge and experience through out of it. They are now afraid to get late and miss out again for the next coming price ATH. Sure all people will join the hype of it. Reason this could be an option is the fast profit too because of the market volatility. Unlike other investment it takes over a months or years before they reach the profit they want or even the ROI but with the bitcoin you can deal with it in just a few weeks. Still have an essence of market manipulation.

People keep fear of missing out once they saw other people accumulate as they can and secure for another all-time high they want to do the same thing and make an investment as they can to catch up but also we need to consider the current state of the economy and the market price movement yes we need to accumulate as possible but if you made a wrong entry this cause your money to have a negative unrealize loss so instead wait for the market opportunity and buy and not just buy without a proper plan.

This will depend on your country if your country has a tax on bitcoin for sure, once you sell your assets, there's an equivalent percentage of it, many people to escape those taxes find a way to other countries they know a friend of them or family and let those exchange and brings back to them into the form of fiat currency but for me it's quite hassle because it's the same way if you will use third-party applications for example exchanges, you will sell your bitcoin but it into 1:1 ratio still there's a fee once you make in a withdrawal too there's a percentage of it, use the things you have to get convenience that's people now are paying to, because tax is every where.

This is a widely adaptation to the use of Bitcoin in my country are not supporting this kind of feature yet instead, we are using an e-wallet that can easily buy and sell Bitcoin the same with the exchange but those e-wallets are now accepting cryptocurrency; we have a sim registration yet for the verification of the KYC so sooner or later this might adopt into us too.
The question on this is, whether the sim must be supported too with the KYC?, because if they can buy bitcoin into this I guess must need to have personal information else people can buy a bitcoin with the sim without the hassle of this.

Not only happiness investment in crypto currency gives a roller coaster of emotions the market is volatile it changes as always when the market becomes demand on it. People will just happy because their investment get profit and have a lot of project gives them a positive income but not always it happen the market goes down too this is happen when the peak already reach and the people now selling their assets because they got their take profit.
Not always crypto gives happiness sometimes mix emotions during the bear market.

One of the scams known is Reverse engineering which takes a talk with the hacker and the victim. After those conversations, the victim provides the details and the hacker now have the full access to them. Next is phishing which is a website that pretends to be the legitimate one the hacker now accesses your account or device without knowing of the victim and stole all of the funds.
This is the reason why having an anti-virus is a must to make sure your device is safe from those attacks.

Base on my.expeirenxe last bull run there's a lot of investors come up, new projects that could possible make you earn a lot and make a re-investment, people are actively sharing their winnings but of course the market becomes congested each transaction so high for the fees reason why people don't commit everyday a transactions.
We know this coming bull run people now accumulate as possible so I don't become late and grab the opportunity every market price drop.

Sometimes people are risk takers even though they have needs they will pursue their wants one example of it is those people who don't are in the middle to low class and they keep playing gambling even if they can not sustain their living from their perspective to hope to win a large amount but not it always happens in playing gambling always the house wins the game and the result is they didn't manage to hit the jackpot, lose their money and seek for a loan makes them to have debt.

Their support on their ANN board is inactive so I guess you need to raise up again and again to their support, for sure they will take time those and like Oshosondy said its possible that you need to meet a number of gambling games before making a withdrawal it is the firs time it happens on you or just newly created account?.

This is the reason why parents should limit their internet access, they think there's nothing risk to them if they have internet, anything now they can search on it if the ISP of that family has security and limit their access I guess, also it the parent's responsibility to that one who handle things, for example, payment in school and don't let those their child make on it because of course they are young ones and the temptation to use the funds in another way, feels sad it happen to rest in peace to the student. This could serve the parent must need to have their guidance.
