Actually in 2021 we have benefited from investing in bitcoin because for this year the increase in bitcoin prices is extraordinary and the achievement of new ATH for this year is beyond our previous predictions, so not a few old investors have now gotten satisfactory results, but for now it never hurts to invest in bitcoin because the price increase is happening so we still have a chance to get results.

There is simply no way that transactions are done entirely on lightning or on layer 2. That is unrealistic and makes Bitcoin completely useless and which is why I've criticized repeatedly on the fallacy of having a limited on-chain capacity and banking on off-chain TXes to sustain the TX volume. We absolutely need a capacity increase in the future to even think of mass adoption. Again, 7TPS is ridiculously small and lightning network isn't (and should not) be the solution to the problem.

Again, the problem we're looking at right here is not to ensure that we maintain the same level of security. The whole point of PoW is to make it more expensive to attack the chain than be honest. If there is a substantial security decrease but we're still looking at a huge discrepancy between the profits from an attack vs profits from mining, then there is no problem.

Dont make your trades last more than a day. Some trades eats a lot of trading fee especially if theres no volatility.
A friend of mine trades only on spike and makes a 100x leverage, he puts a target profit and once it hits, he stop trading. He reads the chart and wait for another opportunity.

Have you guys seen what was the reason for stopping the match? Brazilian health authorities decided to remove all 4 Argentinian players that came from England due to covid measures. 3 of them were in first 11. That is all ok, but when you take into account that they were in Brazil 3 days before the game than it becomes really strange. #OnlyInBrazil

Not too sure about that, the PL games are starting again next weekend. Our first two blackjack hits were in the PL. I think there’s a good chance we hit another blackjack before stacking up nineteen busts. It’s all about patience & calculated risk dude.

I think if this thread will be answered again maybe 5 or 10 years from now, then we will discover that the same answers will come out in the forum. And hopefully bitcointalk will still be here by that time. However, when we talk of the life span of bitcoin, i know it will still come to an end because even humans don't live until infinity. So same goes with the present investments today.

Bitcoin has been very good to us and definitely it really has a bright future. But the possibility of other investments to also come up rising in the market is very high so the moment bitcoin will no longer has its demand, then probably that would be the end of bitcoin.

From your own chart you can see that when this bull market started in the end of 2020, the amount of Bitcoin reserves on Coinbase was at ATH for quite some time, then it started lowering even while Bitcoin had a dip. I think there's no strong correlation here that could allow to predict the long term price movement. People very easily can send thousands of Bitcoin tomorrow to dump them. Maybe it only means that investors are becoming more aware of the risks of holding coins on centralized exchanges.

Many people are overreacting on how much they could make with a bitcoin investment, and that is why there is a need to know how high it could get, and the reality is that if your only aim is to keep making more and more money then maybe bitcoin is not for you.

I am not saying do not make any money from bitcoin, of course you will want to make some profit, but it can't be 420 trillion dollars worth of money as we all know, we can't just hope for 100x on bitcoin as well, what we can do however is the fact that we could make some money, not a ton but some money and also use it, and store our wealth at the same time. This is the greatness about bitcoin, you do not lose networth and that means a lot.

I haven't read the entire story but I think such keys can be easily restored by using data recovery software or since the amount involved is gigantic, he can also hire an expert to help him out and promise them a good amount. If my maths is right, it is nearly 20 BTC that's lost and any good hacker/technician will recover them for a mere 1 BTC.

Sometimes doubts will lead to regret and when the price of bitcoin is low but there are doubts about buying it and when the price rises slightly from the previous price it is still doubtful and will waste time which is actually a waste of time.
you should take advantage when the bitcoin price is still 30k, 40k, 50k and find accurate news about bitcoin in the future, because many people are talking that bitcoin will reach 100k by the end of this year or early next year.

I checked the order history and it said it had taken around 0.00001120 BTC in fees. Okay, fine but where has the other $3.60 got to?  forgive me if I'm being dumb somehow but that sort of fee seems awfully high for one spot trade.

In the previous casino hero I also went for roulette as my go to game and did the same strategy placing very small bets (around 0.02mbtc per chip) and go for both colors.

On a good day I end up losing nothing (same as you) there are times where zeroes won't appear for like 50-100 spins but on average I think I lost around 0.1mbtc then on a bad day i'll lose maybe 0.2mbtc to 0.3mbtc depending on the amount of greens I get. It's honestly not that bad knowing you'll get extra rewards to reduce those losses every 2-3 weeks.   

What if each block contains 100000 transactions instead of the current 2800, little infrastructure change is probably needed to change that (if any other than code and signalling). Each of those could pay $1 and overpay on the current system.
