All eyes are on the BNB due to the increase in Ethereum's gas fee. Thinking about the beginning, it can be understood that the BNB's gas-free is increasing day by day. Although I don't know the exact reason behind it, the curiosity is there.

the primary role of government is to provide a regulatory framework in an economy, Government sole responsibility is to provide a guideline on how thing are to be done within their jurisdictions.

this is not different with cryptocurrency although cryptocurrency is created with high anonymous the truth remains that cryptocurrency co-exist with other factors in the economy such as the bank and the traditional currencies, for crypto to become a full flesh currency it needs to undergo government regulation because that is the only way cryptocurrency will be considered a legal currency.

questions:

will government regulations on cryptocurrencies undermine crypto decentralized nature?

Top sites that I use for cryptocurrencies are

• Bitcointalk.org
• CoinMarketCap
• Cointelegraph

I think these are the most valuable sources of news, projects, credibility of projects, etc., when it comes to any cryptocurrency-related stuff. For sure, the forum is my top 1 for anything. They are making sure that the facts are straight and the sources are viable.

I have been a day trader but want to know if it’s a good idea to hold bitcoin for long, whether it will be more profitable?

It is evident with the speed of Nigeria youths getting more attracted on online businesses, bitcoin trading is one sure angle to look into for investment with the rate of volatility. Nigeria is therefore increasing in bitcoin popularity which P2P is relied on heavily for transaction because of the CBN on accounts connected to banks and cryptocurrency exchanges. This is having more positive outlook for the bitcoin crypto economy.

That is the same as hitbtc when the exchange site is controlling how many coins that can be withdrawn from the exchange site. That's very sad to see that but hitbtc was doing a little bit better by not pending the transaction that has been made by the users. I never use vindax again right now and i have been learned a lot from the crap exchange site. Vindax is also included on the exchange site which was giving a shit to the users. It's in the same tier as p2pb2b and coinsbit.

I'm currently working at a normal 8-hour shift job, 6 times per day in order to make a living, but I was always seeking some extra income that could be earned at home. Moreover, I'm doing my internship now, in order to graduate, in which I'm working from home, online. However, I do not actually count that as an online income, due to its nature.

I'm interested to see how other members of this community earn money online, either if it's a full income, or some extra pocket money. I used to trade a few months ago, when I was out of work due to Covid-19 restrictions. Likewise, I've stopped now because it was causing me anxiety, while at the same time having limited time due to being occupied with work.

Although I've stopped trading, I invested my money into DeFi projects, the first vault I joined as a liquidity provider, was an algorithmic stablecoin (Bolt Dollar), which resulted in approximately $1.000 in gross profit, before sinking into the abyss. I've now resigned from risky vaults and invested into Stable LPs (Currently in Iron - BUSD). It's a small reward but involves minimal risk and action.

My last source of online income is signature campaigns, I've been in one for quite a while and I wish I had more time to post more, but I do not, I'll prefer to not post crap all around the forum just to get my post count up.

I might not make much, provided I had more free time than I would definitely earn more, but I'm satisfied that I have another method of earning some kind of income. How are you making money? Are you a full-time trader, a DeFi investor? Let us know!

The phrase buy the dip is only a good advice when you apply it properly by buying the very good altcoins whose value is only down because of the bearish market condition. Because it is not all coins that dip that would recover their value.

For example, early this year (when the market was super bullish) almost all the projects released saw good increase in their value. but that doesn't mean it is all of them that were very good projects. After the market dip (correction), most of them never recovered their value. The crypto market is filled with a lot of scrap altcoins and the market way of sheding them off is to dip (correction). So it would be in your best interest to only buy very good coins in the market dip.

Trading in crypto is almost the same as trading the stock exchange. There is a right time to buy and a right time to sell. Need proper analysis and must be able to read market movements. Then it takes patience, because there are two options namely long-term and short-term, depending on whether you want to trade short-term or long-term.

There are five risks in the use of Bitcoin:

(1) Policy risks. The decentralized nature of Bitcoin may threaten the traditional monetary system, affect the government's macro-control capabilities and reduce fiscal revenue;

(2) Legal risks. At present, Bitcoin is only protected by the laws of various countries as a virtual commodity rather than a currency;

(3) Speculation risk. Bitcoin does not have national credit or physical assets as protection, and the price may fluctuate sharply, which is extremely risky for investors;

(4) Money laundering risk. Bitcoin has the characteristics of anonymity and freedom from geographical restrictions. It is difficult to monitor the flow of funds, and it will be very easy to circumvent government supervision;

(5) Substitution risk. Bitcoin still has defects such as lack of credit guarantee, poor security performance and easy to cause deflation. At the same time, it has to face the competition of various emerging altcoins, and there is a greater risk of substitution.

Selling or buying investments ?
As a bitcoin trader the hardest decision that we can ever take is , selling our beloved cryptocurrency and this is preety hard because of :-

1.   Our emotions
2.   Our lack of knowledge
3.   Hope !

Well you all can relate to the fact that whenever we are into selling something, we take hasty decisions, generally if the price is falling and we lack patience and even if we are scared that this can go worse in the future we generally sell and then regret moments later when we see it climbing ladder.
Even if the price is going great and its increasing we generally tend to regret if we sell it and the price continues to grow.
This is really hard once our emotions are involved with our investments.
I think that the best thing we can do is separate our emotions with our investments. We should kind of make a pact to never regret any decision that we ever made because in the words of Victoria Holt “never regret, if it was good , its wonderful and if its bad, its experience.”
I think what’s important is taking into account every single detail in the market regarding our investment and at the same time emotionally detaching our minds and making stable decisions and that’s what makes a investor successful.
Also someone has truly said “the investment market takes money from the hasty one and gives it to the patient one”

Cardano has promised to deliver a lot over the last seven years, including smart contracts, but failed to deliver anything except promises. Why should we believe them now? NEAR protocol does what Cardano has promised to do but can't, and it does it now. In fact, Cardano at this point should deploy as an appchain on top of NEAR, then it will have 2k TPS and smart contracts.

I don’t understand what point of view you want to explain. Pakistan’s economy has always been on the verge of collapse. Afghanistan’s current economic situation is also extremely bad, with little impact on Pakistan. The country with the largest real investment in Pakistan is China. The impact of China's national investment policy on Pakistan will be obvious.

I imagined how most bounty participants and trader who are below the senior rank most especially those who do not know how to choose good/high rewarding projects if they would would have even made up to $1k in the past 1 year. How would they feel if they have nothing meaningful to withdraw at this pandemic period and just looking at their wallet helplessly. How much have you been able to cash out in the past one year.

Actually, I heard about Staking the coins gives apy. I want to know is really a staking good idea & what will be the staking months like 1 month, six months or 1 year.
