It isn't surprising as the halving time is only a few days left. We can see that investors are very enthusiastic to buy Bitcoin. As a high demand in the market, the price can continue to rise up. Except if most investors are starting to secure the profits and satisfied with the current price, then probably the price decrease gradually.  

Market is really moving as the halving is approaching. People who buy bitcoin as early as they can will surely benefit from this growth in price, because the demand in the market is consistently increasing. Never become contented about the price because there is always something more about the bitcoin's price. It's volatility can make it increase and increase its price than you imagine so it is not a good choice to stop on that certain price, always look forward for more profit. Secure your coins and most of the investors are losing money because of greed, you shouldn't do that. Always look for a possible and good outcome with just proper manipulating and investing of money. Too much greed is really bad and just let bitcoin do it itself.

Do you guys have the same experience? How did you overcome it? Share your experience so that other gamblers will know how to respond.
These kinds of feeling in times like this are starting to pop, you are not the only one, there's a lot of us. Some people there may be starting to learn gamble online because they are really eager to gamble.
We all know that this is a kinda temporary situation, but this could also help us in our gambling life, like if we can start to control our gambling this now, so if no more lockdowns and casinos are open, we learn to control ourselves.

I feel you brother, it is not that easy to overcome this boredom as we are feeling that everyday is just like a same day. We have different hobbies and activities that we like but when we are doing it over and over again, we are getting unsatisfied about it. Sometimes I do something that makes me happy and alive so that I lessen my boredom and make myself do something in order to become productive every single day.

- I play instruments such as electric guitar and bass just to enjoy music that I like
- I play video games because some games have a good story just like the Uncharted series in Ps4

Those activities are just my simple way of relieving my stress, anxiety and boredom as we have no idea when this lockdown will end. Hoping that everything will go back to normal so that there are no people who will die and suffer from this pandemic thing. Just always keep safe and keep yourself away from the virus, plus, practice proper hygiene.
1683  Economy / Economics / Re: Mining: Halving will destroy the half of us. on: May 07, 2020, 06:51:06 AM
I don't think the halving event is the end of the small miner. Because although BTC's mining difficulty has doubled, the value of BTC has greatly increased. Currently at the time of writing, the value of BTC is $ 9300. If after the halving event, the price of btc exceeds the $ 20k , the small miner will continue to work. Because they can mine a smaller amount of BTC than before but they can earn more dollars due to the value of BTC going up in the future.

But the small miner will not get a big reward if they still mine bitcoin. I don't know how many satoshis they will reach every day because that will depend on how big the hashrate that they have in their hardware. And if bitcoin price is at more than $15k-$20k, then they might make a nice profit with their hardware because they can sell the reward to get the profit. But yes, they need to calculate how much the electricity cost that they should pay so they can get the real profit.


What can we do, if that's the nature of bitcoin? We just need to do some adjustments and adapt on its changes in number and its effect in the market. We all know that the demand on bitcoin will become higher compared to its normal price because of the halving of its supply. Miners should do some adjustments also as small miners are the one who will not get the advantages of this halving as they will not get the rewards that is appropriate for them. Calculating the expenses in mining bitcoin is not that easy and required for you to prevent losses and you know how to budget the profit that you've gained. Profits should be saved and budget properly for you to know the importance of the advantage of halving in bitcoin's price.
1684  Economy / Speculation / Re: Who thinks Bitcoin will hit $250,000 by early 2023 on: May 07, 2020, 06:21:06 AM
There are always a lot of prediction about the price of the bitcoin for this incoming halving, $250k is such a big amount of money but it is also possible that bitcoin can reach that high but one thing for sure is that no one can really predict the accurate price of the bitcoin, do not surprise when someone on twitter posted about the price of the bitcoin for this bitcoin halving because it always happen, people tend to give their prediction as long as they want.
We do not know what the price of bitcoin can be in the next three years, all I know is that the price will rise and fall, good traders take advantage of this. But, if I will have to predict, bitcoin can never increase more than $75000.
Bitcoin is so unpredictable because it may go high and low, so no one can say the accurate price of it in the next bitcoin halving so always be careful with those traders and investors out there.

We should expect for more in bitcoin because most of us are hoping that bitcoin price will have some improvement due to this upcoming halving. Bitcoin is always volatile in the market that's why people are working hard to find some hints about its price. Predictions are essential but you should have basis for that to have a more precise precise outcomes, sometimes people are doing prediction about bitcoin's price with just pure guesses. For me, $250k is possible because volatility have no limit, it can reach all time high or all time low in just one snap in the market. Hopefully in 2023, people will engage more in cryptocurrency and increase mass adoption so that bitcoin's price will become reasonable high due to the number of volume in the market.
1685  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Some People Cannot Stop The Urge To Sports Betting And Gamble Even In Pandemic on: May 06, 2020, 08:18:52 AM


You really cannot gambler they always find a way even in the worst-case situation like the pandemic, how about in your country do you have some people who cannot stopped to gamble even when your country is in lockdown
There is no wrong in betting/gambling in this kind of situation because this is the most boring time we ever experience in our entire life,forced to stay at home for 2 months?

But Spending the money that supposedly for support to bring food in your table and instead use to Gamble?this is Sh*t people and they are not the one who must received this Help from the government.

While many people now are seeking for help and even Las Vegas has this issue of people asking for help.and these gamblers do this kind of careless actions?if i am the government to decide?i will surely bring this shi*ts into jail and will let them suffer till they realized what they done wrong.

There are a lot of things that should be prioritized and not gambling, you can play video games, you can entertain yourself without even spending a money. I know the this quarantine is really boring but spending your money in gambling isn't the best decision to make yourself busy. There are household chores that you need to do instead of wasting money, gambling is very risky and most of the people know that. Those casinos should give some help and donations to those people who are really needy so that people will recognize them and will increase their reputation for more customers to visit them after this pandemic. Government is not that sufficient when it comes to giving people what they need because they have other things to prioritize.
1686  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: 7 Things have to do to become a Good Crypto Trader on: May 06, 2020, 07:12:11 AM
Hello Everyone !!

2 ) Accept Losses ! Yeah it's a part of Game Man ! Many of us don't accept small losses & then it becomes so fucking Huge that they can't even think sensibly further & then just Starts Gambling !!✅

If you already know how to accept defeat and failure, that's when you will get more stronger and aware about trading and gambling. Losses are the key to open our hearts and mind about the reality of risking our money just to earn a profit or lose it. There's no certainty in gambling and trading that's why as much as possible, all transactions should be your best shot.

But I know that huge losses can be really upsetting and that's where your self-discipline is needed so that you prevent having long-term problems about trading. Gambling will also bring you much larger losses compared to trading so think carefully what you should prioritize and focused on.
1687  Economy / Economics / Re: The U.S. economy contracted sharply in the first quarter of 2020 on: May 06, 2020, 05:44:52 AM
But I dont understand why so much. USA went in lockdown only at end of March.  Europe started around 10th March. USA was at least 10 days latter. How can GDP drop almost 5% when Jan and Feb were positive?  How can be the 2020 predictions for USA around 5%?  Q2 GDP drop will be catastrophic!!! 

Venues were shutting down, people stopped traveling and going to restaurants and bars, etc. weeks before governors issued lockdown orders. The fear of the pandemic (and the economic impact) is a much larger force than the government orders themselves. GDP growth was already weak heading into all of this too.

Q2 numbers will probably be brutal, yes. Most estimates are in the 40%+ contraction range. Somehow, there is still optimism for a V-shaped recovery in the second half of the year. I am not convinced of that myself.

They are really having a hard time controlling their stock market, their economy and as well as the virus. US really needs to have a prior plan so that they can recover one step at a time, they are experiencing issues simultaneously and I believe that their leader are panicking because of a huge number of cases in their country. They think that they are really strong and healthy enough to fight the virus that's why they underestimated the tragedy brought by the Covid-19. The reason why their economy is contracted sharply right now is because the government is focusing and allocating their funds on the hospitals and making people recover from the virus. Hopefully they can recover from their GDP so that their issue about their economy will become lessen.
1688  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Leaving Bitcoin as inheritance on: May 06, 2020, 05:08:30 AM
Many has such idea to leave their Bitcoin as an inheritance. In that case you have to have in mind that Bitcoin is volatile and so the value you leave to someone will not be fixed. With time it can become bigger or smaller.
And I think that the best way to do that is to attach the private keys to will, thus they will also be legaly secured and protected from possible abuse in case that you give them directly to person who will inherite your coins.

You need to choose someone who is trustworthy, responsible, creative, and wise enough to inherit your coins. It is not that easy to hold a bitcoin, there are a lot of things to consider to prevent losses in bitcoin. Market is one of the most crucial factor in the price of bitcoin because of its volatility in the market.

When you die, you should teach some of your family members some idea about cryptocurrency so that as early as they can, they practice and gain a lot of experience manipulating that. Private keys are also important and the best thing to do is secure and protect your assets until your family members are already knowledgeable about bitcoin.

Inheritance is not that easy, giving your trust and your assets that you've worked for, for so many years needs to be in a good hand. Being open-minded about cryptocurrency is the most essential thing that people who will inherit needs to acquire.

We are developing the most attractive gambling games and I want to know the players' favorites!!!
 Wink Wink Wink

Of course this is a dice. A very simple mathematical model, a lot of choices with what chances to play, a small percentage of the advantages of a casino, customizable game speed plus the ability to set various algorithms and play in automatic mode. This is an almost complete list of what I need from a gambling game - I like to build different algorithms and test their work on a huge number of bets.

I play dice a lot because it is an instant game, your knowledge about statistics can be applied here so that you know the percentage of you winning in this game. The combination that you want is available here that's why the winning percentage is very low and if you're lucky enough to win then so be it. The dice algorithms are very basic compared to other gambling games that's why it is not that hard to play with this game in a casino. This dice also have huge number of bets because the game is so fast compared to other games like poker and etc., sometimes you just need to be patient about the result of gambling to prevent shock and sudden disappointments. In gambling, you should take every point slowly.

Trading is a very risky part while investing is you're always is a safe zone. Why? Because you can hold it depend on how long the time frame you want and the profit you have been targeted on it.

Not necessarily. You being in the sort of "safe zone" completely depends on what you're actually investing in. I mean, you could hold certain penny stocks for god knows how long and you could still end up in a huge loss.

There's no safe zone when it comes to money, because in investment, there are still problems or issue that you will encounter as you manipulate your investment. Trading is more risky, but there's still risk in investment there are some problems in the market that you need to take over to prevent losses and the movement of money in investment is slower compared to trading. In trading, money is quick and the transaction are faster than you imagine, the only good in trading is that you can predict the movement in the market so that you can apply and think of an effective strategy to minimize the risk of losing in it. The only thing that will help you grow in investment is if you manage it properly and you don't let any problems affect you.
1691  Economy / Economics / Re: Rookie thing. on: May 05, 2020, 05:59:29 AM
I'm reading about all this cryptocurrency for a little while now (hard not to its all over and everywhere) and I got some questions that I could not find a satisfying answer.

1. There is no question about Fiat money (whatever it is $, £ or euro.) thats its losing it's value, so the question is. If it got no value what value Bitcoin have then ? ( i will use bitcoin for must common crypto but thinking of any). Can't get my head over it.

2.If you imagine in let's say 20 years FIAT goes to CRYPTO all the way. You want to buy a car worth $5000 but paying in Crypto, how much would you pay ? if $ got no value.

Bitcoin will be worth as much as Bitcoin will be worth no matter how much fiat is worth now or then.  To buy car you will pay as much Bitcoin as seller will want. You will agree with that or not and go buy car somewhere else.  Loaf of bread will be worth as much as now 10 years from now. Ounce of gold also. Gold stores value well. 2000 years ago you were able to buy a armour with ounce of gold. 100 years ago you were able to buy a business suit with ounce of gold. Today you can buy a designer outfit with ounce of gold.

Bitcoin is very volatile and dont store value well and will be 10 years from now much more expensive or much cheaper. Maybe you will be able to afford a sport car with one Bitcoin or you will only be able to fix flat tire.

Bitcoin's volatility are the basic issues that you need to understand in holding and investing in bitcoin. Bitcoin is still better than fiat money although there's a lot of factor that affect bitcoin's price when there's some issues in our surroundings. The increase in bitcoin price is higher than you imagine if it moves in the market and also the drop in its price is also huge, so it is risky to use bitcoin but very effective as a store of value. Once you know the importance of bitcoin in the economy, you will learn how to manipulate it in the market properly. Gold and bitcoin have similarities but they are both a good store of value, the only difference is between the time where they are good to use. Bitcoin are for a short term profit and gold are for a long term store of value.
1692  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The growth of cryptocurrency on: May 05, 2020, 05:24:46 AM
1. Crypto has helped so much in my life with anonymity. I have bought items online without having to use my Credit card details or my personal info.

Privacy is really important in cryptocurrency as it talks about assets, identity can be used for hacking and scamming so in some transactions, anonymity is really important. Cryptocurrency is a good material to use in many transactions as it is less hassle and can make you safe and secured in using it.

2. I've been in crypto for over 4 years now and I do not have regrets.

I'm using crypto for 5 years, and in 5 years, I don't see any bad issues about bitcoin beside its volatility in the market. But if you're really trusting bitcoin with all your heart and you're willing to invest to that, you should know how to deal with the market because it is changing and moves from time to time.

3. I got to know crypto through friends and internet.

I know crypto through curiosity and urge to have a huge amount of profit just by staying in the internet. I really understand how technology is advancing and at the same time the movement and happenings in the market. This curiosity made me support my self and have money to become stable, but still cryptocurrency is not a getting rich scheme, there's something more about behind using cryptocurrency.
1693  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Gaming and Mobile Sport Betting May Be Legal After Covid-19 End??? on: May 04, 2020, 05:52:15 AM
The situation calls for legalization of online gambling.

Government funds in most countries are almost depleted and they needed the economy to recover asap. I think online gambling platforms can help provide the much needed funds and it would be impractical for the government if they aren't going to allow and regulate them provided they apply for license to operate.

As the world transitions to the new normal, I think people all types of gamblers would still be wary going to crowded areas like casinos.

I read some articles that China wants Philippines to start prohibiting the online betting or gambling, I just don't know the reason why. Online gaming is already legal and famous in our country and mobile sports betting too, because the government doesn't care about that and it doesn't affect the whole economy of a country. It is just a small amount of bets and it is just for entertainment and fun but if it is abused by the people then they should be accountable for that. As what you've said people will still do physical casinos, it is true because the environment inside a traditional casinos are really different from when you gamble online. Playing gambling outside is much less stress compared to online gambling that there is no one for you to talk with.
1694  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: When to buy - question to Hodlers on: May 04, 2020, 05:10:15 AM
If you are aiming for a long-term then you don't have to worry that much with the prices. In my case, I buy BTC when I deemed that it was below what I consider as the "normal" price which is subjective to me of course. You can do your strategy tho buying every month despite the prices but I suggest to analyze through maybe through the news, if you are doing TA (which I don't familiarize myself yet with this) then you might want to use it or just simply the graph itself. You might want to use these to determine on how much would you buy this month and the next months or would you rather not just buy at all yet.

That should be the right way, you should wait patiently for its price to become less than the normal price so that you have a certain percentage of profit. The only crucial thing here is the waiting game, the duration of how long will its price to become lower compared to the original price before it moves. Sometimes you just need to seek information in the internet if there's a news related to the effect in the economy then you should perform technical analysis properly. If you have good speculation and prediction then your strategies should become effective and will really give you profit. Analyzing the graph of the market will make you have some ideas regarding the changes and movement of a certain coin's price.
1695  Economy / Economics / Re: Get ready for more tax. Save your BTC! on: May 04, 2020, 04:39:33 AM
We see it everywhere. To counter that coronavirus disaster, governments are spending money like there's no tomorrow. Budget's deficit will rise to new heights, never seen before except during war times. In US and EU, debts are staggering. The Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank are printing money faster that I'm writing it. If you ask what's next, I'm afraid there's only one answer.

In most countries, governments will have no other choice but to raise taxes. They will have to be smart to avoid killing the economy, but they will need to bring more money to balance their budget (or more likely to reduce their operating deficit).

As I haven't paid any income tax since 1997, that's all right with me, but I urge all fellow Bitcoiners to organize themselves, and to plan ahead to avoid the worst...

Or could I be wrong? There will be no more taxes next year?

eventually you're right, but in the next 1-2 years i think governments will be primarily concerned about getting economic growth back on track. they won't want to hamper that growth with tax hikes.

the push to austerity will vary from country to country. the USA can print a few trillion dollars without anyone caring, hence the stark difference between american and european stimulus packages. high debt-to-GDP countries like greece, italy, and portugal are more urgent concerns.

then again, the november election could shake things up. if democrats take control of the senate and/or presidency, i could see them repealing trump's $1.5 trillion tax cut passed a couple years ago.

Probably, yes. After this pandemic, they will recover from its losses due to the covid-19 and they will surely make the taxes higher because of the huge budget that they've spent. People are really vulnerable especially those who don't have a budget for more than a month of quarantine because work are also suspended. The economy of the countries really dropped as soon as this pandemic is spreading in every part of the country, maybe because of the stock market that is really necessary to proceed. Don't tell me that some other countries are controlling their economy without any damaged, only China can do that and it is suspicious how they manipulated and maintain their economy when the covid-19 really originated from them.
1696  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin in time of halving - a brief review. on: May 04, 2020, 03:18:34 AM
Since the halving is fast approaching, I think most of the things that surround Bitcoin is the topic Halving. For sure, there are a lot of articles already for newbies to read but it's not wrong to clarify things, especially in Bitcointalk.

As we know the situation with cryptocurrency, the fast-moving market makes it hard for people to see the importance of having it at a discount because it's not going to get any better than that. It's always going to be hesitation at the current market but future regret for not buying it, and it's sad. For us, it's easy to invest some of the hard-earned money that we make since we support it, but for new-comers, it's going to be quite hard.

The current happenings around us would certainly heal,. Still, right now, no one can predict when it's going to be finished, the pandemic situation, just like the prediction of what the price would be on investment, in this case, Bitcoin, after the halving.

BTC is not going to disappear, that's for sure.

We have nothing to do if the bitcoin is really coming to us because it is a behavior of bitcoin to do the process of halving every 4 years, it includes this year 2020. I know that some newbies here are not that knowledgeable about halving that's why there are some topics related to that so they what to do when that event occurs.

The demand of bitcoin will surely goes up because of the number of bitcoin that becomes half of the main supply. There is a drop in its price but it is just temporary, we all know that bitcoin is volatile and the market so you don't need to worry that much but instead, you should manipulate your assets properly to prevent losses.

This pandemic brought some major effects to our economy but we will surely recover to that because I know that governments will work hard to retrieve its losses in the stock market. Most especially those bitcoin holders who are panicking, don't panic and just execute good transactions and good decision making.
1697  Other / Archival / Re: Let's talk Texas Holdem poker hands and how to play like a PRO? on: May 03, 2020, 09:49:19 AM
Fucking luck never been with me in this gambling game...

Poker is such a beautiful game because this is a game of skills and this hand, was very tricky to play.
I understand your frustration, but many times the river card would bring the nuts to the opponent, anyways this time the odds (luck  Wink) were on his site from the beginning.

You haven't said too much how this hand was played out exactly, but TBH just after the flop, your hand had fewer odds compared to his.
There were still 11 cards in the deck which could improve his hand, compared to only 4 cards on your site, it's like 3:1 on his favor.
Not mention, that if on the turn Jack or 10 would hit the deck, then he would have another draw to the straight and even more outs, but luckily there was a 6.
So, he was not blindly betting with a pair of queens, only had a flush draw with the possibility for an inside straight draw, which gives almost 14 outs that could make his hand better in the best scenario.

When you see such flop, then you have to play calm and be prepaid to throw away two pairs or even a straight, because there is a huge possibility for a flush.
So, in my opinion, you are not unlucky, only need to play more and gain more experience. With such flop, I would try to keep the pot size small and control the action if possible.
I don know how betting looked like pre and post-flop, so it is hard to discuss the play further.

Many times one will lose with 9, 8 suited when having AA, KK because this is the best hand (at least for me) to play against such type of nuts pre-flop, it gives such a massive amount of draws and possibilities when opponent end up having a pair of Aces on the river, against a flush draw, straight, three of kinds or two pairs at least, exactly like in your game. With two AA one has literally only two outs. Mostly stays at one pair of AA such as started pre-flop, but sometimes you will see such flop like here and have to adjust the play accordingly.

My suggestion: start counting outs, try to calculate odds when playing and of course play more not less  Wink Cheesy.



In playing Poker, your actions should not reflect on your cards instead you should know how to practice having no reactions or a poker face. There's a possibility that you can increase the risk of you losing just by making some facial expression. There are players or opponents that can read facial expression and can perform a bluff depending on your cards once he read it.

In your case, you're just not that lucky enough and you opponent is the real lucky in the hands. In that situation, I will just stop gambling and continue it on the next day because that day might be not for you. You have a very good hand but his hand is much better than yours that's why you've lost it.

If I have that kind of cards then I would be confident too. A 2 pair is just a beautiful card in gambling but the only mistake that you've made is that you don't consider any hint that maybe have a diamond card that can create a flushes. I think that's the only thing you lack of, consideration of the cards in the middle.
1698  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Need advice on becoming a successful trader on: May 03, 2020, 09:14:37 AM
Interesting, you just started trading from two weeks and you jumped into leverage trading. Leverage trading is quite complicated and there is possibilty of huge lose besides of profits. Please learn to control your emotions first and trade with patience. Seems you are greedy enough since you jumped to Leverage trading at the beginning. To be honest, two weeks nothing to learn trading perfectly. You should spend more times to learn before you take any important decision.

Regarding full time trader, I will not prefer for it. Because you don't know about your future. Depending on trading only lead you huge loss and would very difficult to feed your family. Just consider trading as a passive income besides of your main income source. So you will not have to worry about your family feeds. Don't be much greedy, only invest what you can afford loss.

In trading, all you need to practice are patience and self-control, after you know and understand the movement of the market then you can now create a strategy that is applicable based on your speculations. When it comes to trading, the result of your transactions or profit is based on your strategy and decision making that's why you should also practice good decision making in order to become an effective trader.

Using bot is only required if you're busy or you have other errands to do and not a full time trader. It is true that it is very hard to predict when you're just using technical analysis in trading but I guarantee you that by doing technical analysis it can give you some hints on what to do to prevent losses and get huge profit in trading.
1699  Economy / Economics / Re: BTC and Stock vs Oil price on: May 03, 2020, 08:44:15 AM
The stock market is impacted heavily due to the drop in oil prices. Do you all think it will impact the BTC prices as well?

Our focus now is on bitcoin halving, not on oil affecting bitcoin market price. I hardly see any connection, the crude oil is now very low but bitcoin can not be affected. The price may even increase as well as it moves towards halving against what analysts are predicting.

Take a look on oil price on March 12-14 and on bitcoin price on March 13-15. Dont you think these two price drops are connected? I will never believe that bitcoin's recent price drop happened by itself.

I'm not saying that bitcoin price primary relies on oil price, but these two sure are connected.

Any price drop of Bitcoin does not happen by itself because there are so many factors out there coming into play. If by itself you mean that it just drops for no external reason at all. Bitcoin is more than a hundred-billion market, and a public one, it does not just drop significantly without large players playing the game.

But I don't think it has something to do with the price of oil. I cannot see a connection. Why does Bitcoin's price fall when oil price falls? In what way should they be connected?
~snip~

What I am pointing out is that I cannot see any relevant connection between Bitcoin's price and oil's price. It does not mean that since the price of Bitcoin was going down on the exact day when the price of oil hit the bottom, the former must be absorbing the impact of the latter. That does not make sense to me.

Of course, both markets are affected by the current crisis. I am not arguing against that. This is a global crisis that must have affected all the markets in one way or another. But I don't think Bitcoin will suffer the way oil suffered. Their markets are not that closely intertwined.

I think there is a small impact about bitcoin;s price because oil's price is also regulated in the market. They are both manipulated in the market and somehow their demand is related because they are both material in the economy. The crisis in oil's price will surely affect a lot of matter and I know that it is not the easy to manipulate some assets when you know that oil's nowadays aren't in demand. This virus really affects a lot of aspects or sectors, especially those who are in a agricultural and financial sectors. The government will surely not focus on the production of oil and the use of oil because they know that the supply is plenty compared to other necessities like foods, mask ,and etc that can be used to find the pandemic.

Most of us don't have to worry about it because Bitcoin will either be worth a lot of money or nothing before it's mined out completely.
Why don't we have to worry? After all, it's an investment and we should care about it. We don't just throw our money into bitcoin, at least for me.

Yes, probably! People will convert it into fiat before it is over for the bitcoin because they don't want it to become waster or maybe they sell it into a higher price. I know that there are some coins that will replace bitcoin after it was mined completely. and the price of bitcoin will really increased because of the higher demand. If that happens, we will sure look forward for another digital currency that will be the same as bitcoin, a good store of value and volatile. There are a lot of chances and coins that can replace bitcoin, possibly better than bitcoin. That's why when you invest in a certain coin, you should take it seriously and know how to manipulate it properly so that you will not have a hard time especially when you choose bitcoin as your investment.
