However, I would argue that the cryptocurrency market is constantly evolving, and new privacy coins with innovative solutions may emerge in the future. While it may be challenging for new privacy coins to gain traction, it's not impossible.

It's important to remember that different privacy coins may have unique features and use cases that may appeal to different types of users. As the demand for privacy and anonymity in cryptocurrency transactions grows, we may see an increased adoption of new privacy coins that offer improved features and security.

For two reasons, low fees and fast confirmations, but I don't know why they ignore the major flaws in this platform, especially the issue of excessive centralization.
Overall Polygon is a good choice for many but for NFT lovers SOL still has a good reputation.
I stopped using them a few months ago but Magic Eden is a good competitor to OpenSea.

It seems that Elon Musk has found a new hobby for himself)) Today Elon Musk made another statement on Twitter “I used to be in crypto, but now I got interested in AI" - https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1631720134636367872 And if Elon Musk doesn't break this latest statement, then maybe we won't see another pump Dodge.

In reality they have sent satellites with nodes in the atmosphere just to avoid some natural disasters and even if the internet connection fails we always have the possibility of Star Link or not?  I think Bitcoin is unstoppable beyond natural disasters.

This is a bullshit suggestion. Stablecoins is the safest coin if you want keep the value of your asset stable. The idea of the OP is to get profit safely even with small percentage while his assets is protected from crypto volatility. Investing on shitcoins will just make his asset exposed to a lot of risk since crypto market is on a bearish trend. This suggestion of yours is irrelevant to the topic.

@OP, BSC has a cheap transaction and there’s a lot of DeFi project that offer liquidity farming optimization like automatic compounding interest. Just search on the top dapps of BSC to get your preferences option.

The situation still can change. Central banks of many countries are working on CBDC development and they can suppose that it'll be enough for people and try to protect their new digital form of fiat money by new restrictions for crypto. They can be delaying ban to learn positive and negative experience of distributed ledger before starting CBDC. Who knows? Of course it's more enjoyable to be optimistic but I still worry about possible problems governments can make.

I am not an altcoin fan but lately, I have spent some time on the alternative cryptocurrency board and I have seen a lot of topics bordering around whether or not to buy some coins and this makes me wonder why altcoins investors are full of uncertainty and always wanting to know the opinion of others before they invest.

Is there any other reason for this other that the high risk and high volatility of altcoins compared to bitcoin?

Are they asking because they know there are special skills in altcoin analyses or some people are good at picking g g the right coin to invest in?

Hi everyone, I am an avid Solana fan and supporter.

Just wanted to know the bitcointalk consensus on Solana right now.

Does anyone here use Solana on a regular basis?
Does anyone here use the Phantom or Solflare wallet?
What are your thoughts on the "Backpack" wallet?
What are your thoughts on Magic Eden as an NFT platform? Is it better or worse than OpenSea?

Both positive and negative feedback on the protocol as a whole is much appreciated.

Thank you so much.

The global economy is facing a crisis of inflation and other internal financial crisis, such as what we are witnessing right now with recent bad occurrences around the world in Turkey and Syria a lot of people have been mad homeless and government infrastructures such as banks have been destroyed as a result of the earthquake and other natural and man made disasters that has happened in various regions.

This situation has forced many into financial hardship and the unavailability of financial institutions and services, in fact in some countries a lot of financial crisis is currently being experienced.

With most depositors no longer have access to their money through to the high centralization of the financial institutions leaving all the power over their finances in the hand of the central banks.

This crisis has forced many to start looking for an alternative way to save the money, and bitcoin is the best store of value at this point, with Bitcoin, you have total control over your finances and Bitcoin help to reduce the bank to becoming just a Junction or bus stops were our money can just pass through to carry out a transaction or exchange aside from that.

Bitcoin is the best alternative way to save money, with Bitcoin you have control over your savings because it's your wallet and your key and you are your banks!

We all agree we're living in a crazy world and what's far worse is that it is managed by a bunch of clowns..
So, let's think wildly, one day US were to further increase the censorship just like some of the other countries in the world, they ban bitcoin, they ban VPN, they pass legislation for those who mine/trade/spend btc will be sent to jail.
(Let's not say it's not going to happen. It can! You never know just like you would never have known that there's a war in 2022.)

Other countries start to follow.

Where will you be and what kind of life will it be and how is it going to impact yours?

Not every small country has hyperinflation you know. Inflation rate in El Salvador is similar (or slightly lower) than in many European countries.
And no sane country will ever replace their national currency with Bitcoin (unless in some financial system collapse emergency scenario), they could only introduce it as an additional legal tender to attract tourists and investors. But you want to be able to control your national currency and you want it to have a small, healthy inflation rate.

Rewards dealt.

The Americans have been asking Zelensky to withdraw from Bakhmut for many weeks now. But he is adamant that he can reconquer all the lost regions. Ukraine has enough manpower to sustain the war for another 3-4 years. They are a country of close to 40 million people (after subtracting those who are residing in areas controlled by Russia). 1,000 KIA per day would mean 1 million losses in 3 years. It is something they can afford at least theoretically. But I am not sure whether the NATO would be interested in prolonging the conflict for so long. NATO weapon supplies are not infinite, and in due time there will be growing opposition to the spending on this war.

After reading what's happening in Nigeria I could see other countries thinking twice about going the route of the CBDC.

Maybe some small country with a forward thinking leader might see this as an opportunity, and go ahead with Bitcoin instead.

I think a country like Tonga might be the next one to make it legal tender, because they have to pay a lot of fees in remittances.

I believe that these types of coins and platforms have significant potential to become increasingly popular as people become more aware of the benefits of privacy and decentralization in their financial transactions.

Furthermore, the community support for privacy coins is growing and becoming more vocal, with more and more people recognizing the importance of financial privacy in our increasingly digital world. This support will only help to further promote the adoption and usage of privacy coins.

If bitcoin drops to zero, I don't think anything bad will happen. Bitcoin's mission was to bring attention to cryptocurrencies. That task has been accomplished. Now the development of cryptocurrencies is hard to stop. although bitcoin is more likely to become analogous to stabelcoin than to fall to zero.

After reading yours and many others same wishes, I realized that maybe I have been discrediting the amount of wealth that could be generated by crypto. I always used crypto in a way that it would help me keep my purchasing power, maybe the dollar amount would go up, but what can buy one ice cream today, should grow to be dollar amount of one ice cream 20 years later as well, instead of losing its value to inflation.

Obviously that is not what people aim at, they want to make sure that they could make a profit even bigger and larger than that, and I am guessing that I have been asking far too little from my crypto future, maybe one day I will get hopeful about something like that too.

XRP was one of the compliant cryptocurrency for ISO 20022 and if lawsuit comes to light for XRP I think that will likely make XRP fine again. It's still one of the favorites of banks after all and I think huge investors on XRP are huge institutions too.

It would take years maybe 500 years more. The British Empire still didn't evaporate to vanish forever instead created EU with Euro. I think USA will still be around as long as they won't nuke each other to ashes. And so will the dollar as well.

But base on history every empire decline, there will always be a war to expect. China and Russia has same capabilities that US have today, they can monitor each other through space.  What is certain is that all of them has nukes.
