This forum is the best in my opinion because it connects people from all around the world with resources for learning about cryptocurrency.
Other crypto forums also connect people around the world and they provide sources for learning as well. I don't see any significant difference between bitcointalk and other crypto forums on this aspect. But surely the quantity of sources in bitcointalk is more than in other crypto forums since bitcointalk forum has a lot of threads.

Secondly, the manner in which cryptocurrency topics are discussed, providing a more thorough response to each query posted.
What manner do you mean?
I think how people discuss the topics here and in other crypto forums is almost the same.  Huh

And lastly having more active users than any other crypto forum and sharing information through discussion threads that include a variety of sections.
I pretty much agree with this.
Bitcointalk forum has many active members, so there are a lot of threads to be discussed. We also have many sections that provide people with varied specific information they want. People can get a lot of information on this forum.

ten Hag seems quite eager to keep Harry Maguire in the team now. West Ham's recent loan offer has been rejected by Manchester United side.

I think they did the right thing by not sending him in this transfer window. Because in that case they will need to fill his place with another defender. It is quite difficult to sign a solid defender in the middle of the season. Maybe they were going to rush things in the last days of the transfer window and make a bad move. I'm not a fan of Maguire though. I still expect him to leave at some point but it shouldn't be right now.
As far as I know, Maguire didn't perform well since he joined Man United. So, why Ten Hag really wants to keep him on Man United squad? It seems a bit strange to me, Maguire isn't the key player for Man United and having him doesn't impact significantly. If Ten Hag wants good substituted defenders, he can look for new defenders who have a more potentil future than Maguire. I don't see any benefit to keeping Maguire, he is better to be loaned or sold to another team.

Well, you are right that probably Ten Hag doesn't have enough time to find a new defender to replace Maguire position. But if he already planned it a few months ago, he must target and may sign already new defenders before this January transfer season started. It is a bit late if Ten Hag just think to find new defenders now.

If Barcelona is able to play well just like against Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup, of course they will definitely win. Statistically perhaps Barcelona is indeed very superior. But sometimes they always struggle against non-seeded teams. Many small teams piled up a lot of players on the defensive line and it made Barcelona often difficult. So there is always a chance for Getafe to hold a draw, they have to take advantage of the counterattack and finish the opportunity optimally.
I think Barcelona will play aggressively, the same as they played against Real Madrid. Barcelona players are in a great mood, they just won a title. Moreover, they will play at home, it becomes another motivation to play well. So, I am sure that Barcelona will win and get another 3 points. However, if Barcelona players are too confident, it can be a problem. It is like you said that Getafe players can surprise them with a counterattack. It is not impossible Getafe can steal points from Barcelona in Camp Nou.

Trusting developers 100% is foolish, of course. We don't even know who they really are, so don't fall for their promises, especially promises that are backed up with a lot of hype that can attract people from all sides. Because, not necessarily they are really serious about the project, as long as they already get profit and money, they can just betray you. This I strongly agree, that dev is not your friends. Whatever they say, never believe 100%, especially for dev altcoins projects.

And the moment investing instead of being a way to put your money in projects with great fundamentals that you believe will do great in the future, becomes just a game of chicken ....
Exactly, all Devs will say that their project has strong fundamentals, a clear roadmap, and a super bright future. They promise top exchanges after release, but they don't deliver. They promise the development of the project, but the results are not as serious as they talk about.

My goal is to make your dream come true.
My dream is to take profits in every trading activity with high profits and fewer risks of loss. Can you make it?
Well, related tot his statement, I suggest you not to promise anything to others, moreover if you cannot guarantee it. I want to ask you, how many times did you take profits so far and how much? Yur first trading might be successful and you are very happy about it and want to help others. Your goal may be good, but the way is really risky because you are promising somehting that you also cannot guarantee. Because there is exactly no guarantee in trading activities to always win and take profits.
Btw, what's about your consistency in winning and taking profits? Never loss so far?
1826  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Giving bitcoin awareness for easy adoption in my locality on: January 18, 2023, 09:48:33 PM
I am sure that this process will not be easy, especially to convince and attract them to want to know and learn about Bitcoin. Moreover, if I see, most of them are mothers, who may have less consistency. However, if they are really serious, their efforts can be extraordinary.

Introducing Bitcoin to the surrounding environment does need more effort. Not to mention if there are some people who in fact don't like you or Bitcoin itself. There will be a possibility that one day you will get some criticism or problems by them. On the other hand, teaching like this needs consistency both from you and from them, interesting and easy-to-understand explanations, and correct understanding of investing in Bitcoin. In my opinion, do not first or do not ever promise things that become their extraordinary expectations such as getting very high profits from Bitcoin. Because if they don't meet their expectations, you will become the target of their anger.

but beyond all that, keep it up,,,, mate.

Tottenham are getting worse, now Conte is under pressure who will be sacked if every match he loses continuously, right now in the EPL they cannot maintain the top 4 because they were previously there due to being inconsistent so they can lose to other teams, tomorrow will face Manchester City while the team under him Fulham and Brighton are getting closer to the points Tottenham I think if Conte loses again there is a possibility for the summer he can be replaced with another.
Regarding the competition that is still active as you mentioned it is still difficult for Conte to reach because it will be very tough for them to compete there.

It is rumored from sources transfermarkts that Thomas Thucel will replace Conte in the coming months, if Tottenham cannot maintain being in the top 4 of the standings.
I am surprised to know Tottenham wants to replace Conte with Thomas Tuchel?  Shocked
I don't see that Tuchel is better than Conte. He failed in Chelsea this season, that's the reason he is fired from Chelsea. So, why hire him as Tottenham coach?  Huh  I think it is better to keep Conte as the coach and let him to buy some new players to improve the squad quality.

I know that Tottenham performance looks bad lately. Conte must evaluate the tactics and improve the mentality of the players. But it is actually quite good that Tottenham still can stay in 5th place. They still have a chance to return to the top 4, there are still many remaining matches, right?  Undecided

Freedom over your own finances and the government doesn't like that. They can't cut crypto taxes, they can't make the state coffers grow.
Actually, financial freedom for everyone can support the country to improve the economic level. When people become richer, they can pay more taxes. Bigger taxes make the government to have bigger money to grow the country. Basically, this is not a problem, but the government doesn't want to lose its power to control the money circulation in the country.

Therefore Bitcoin is always used as a label for money laundering in their eyes. Because the government has to print more money for Bitcoin disbursement.
The accusation of money laundering in Bitcoin is intended to make people stay away from Bitcoin. The government use an unfair way to build the wrong assumption of people about Bitcoin. But smart people know that Bitcoin isn't related to money laundering. Even there are such cases, it is just a coincidence.

While CBDC is just an evolution of fiat, its nature and use remain the same in controlling how many assets are owned by the community.
IMHO, CBDC is another form of fiats. It is only a digital form of fiats. So, no change at all!!

1829  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What are your thoughts on revenge trading? on: January 17, 2023, 09:58:36 PM
Truth is that every losing trader wants to catch up and recover their losses but that will depend on the mindset adopted. No trader should back out because they're losing. However, it's good to do the chase with a clear head. Otherwise, the trader keeps losing. Those who take a break because they've suffered losses and then come back without reviewing their trading plans and strategies will keep losing.
Agree. Whenever a trader gets a loss, it is normal to think about catching/recovering the loss.
However, it is true that we must recover it in the right way. And we must evaluate the problem or mistake we did, that lead to the previous loss. So, we know the wrong thing with our trading strategy, and we won't repeat the same mistake. If we never learn or evaluate it, we may repeat the same loss again and again. A trader who can learn from the previous mistake also will improve the strategy, so the chance to get profits will be higher.

Well, IMHO actually there is no term for revenge trading. What a trader does after getting a loss is "recovering the loss". But it must be in the right way!!

1830  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 17, 2023, 09:50:03 PM
The gap between Napoli and Milan can get much bigger by next week matches. Because Milan are going to face Lazio in an away match. I can't say that there is a big difference between Lazio and Milan currently. Milan's starting to lose many points recently made me doubt their performance against Lazio as well.
Lazio performance isn't better than AC Milan performance. Just take a look at the results of their last 5 matches! AC Milan won 2 matches and got 3 draws. While Lazio got 2 losses, 2 wins, and 1 draw. I think AC Milan performance is still better. Also, if we consider the squad quality, AC Milan is better because they have more top players. So, no doubt that AC Milan is the favorite team to win the next match (Lazio vs AC Milan). Although the match will be held in Lazio home, I am pretty sure that AC Milan will succeed to get full points. They must be motivated in their current situation, they need 3 points to maintain their position at 2nd place.

1831  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you handle your losses on: January 17, 2023, 09:41:35 PM
I think in this case calm is the main key. defeats and wins are actually normal conditions because regardless of anything we cannot avoid losing when we are in gambling. The problem is that there are still many people who always play more ambitiously in the next session when they have lost.
Indeed, there are several strategies to minimize defeat, but when we have more ambition about winning, this is actually not good for the next game because we don't focus too much and enjoy the match because our thoughts are winning.
You are right. If someone can be calm whenever they get losses, everything will be fine. However, not every gambler can feel calm when they get losses. There are many gamblers to be out of control when they get losses. Although they have enough knowledge and experience, sometimes they still can't control themselves. In this matter, I assume it is all about an individual's nature or characteristics. It is not so different with people who are ambitious to chase winning. It may be their nature to always think about winning, or it is because of the wrong goal/purpose of joining gambling. But there are also some people how do that because of less of knowledge and experience.

1832  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How Are You Preparing For 2023? on: January 17, 2023, 09:27:04 PM
So, how are you preparing for 2023, what or which altcoin are you buying in preparation for 2023?
I have prepared it since the last year, I bought some altcoins that I assume they will increase their prices faster. I have spent more than 75% of my funds in 2022, so I only have 25% to buy more altcoins this year. Most altcoins I bought that those altcoins that have strong fundamentals and have good trends lately. ETH, ADA, MATIC, DOT, SOL, MANA, SAND, and THETA are some altcoins that I already bought with 75% of my funds last year. In my personal point of view, they have good fundamentals to survive and continue to increase in 2023.

I appreciate your intention, mate.  Smiley
I know you want to see mass adoption soon for Bitcoin, it is good for sure.
But you need to choose a proper way to contribute to Bitcoin mass adoption. Naming your child Bitcoin isn't the right way to Bitcoin mass adoption. Instead, people will assume you are too fanatic about Bitcoin. People won't be interested in Bitcoin in this way, they even will stay away from Bitcoin. They need proof that Bitcoin is useful for them, not to see Bitcoin as the name of someone.

There is still no news about Liverpool's intention to buy a solid midfielder. We are already halfway through the transfer window and there is still no serious move by Liverpool side. I guess that they have postponed their intention to make such signing to this summer. They are already in a terrible condition in the English Premier League at the moment. It is going to be quite difficult for them to save themselves from this situation. Even if they make it still it will be too difficult for them to finish the season in top four.
Actually, they shouldn't postpone signing new players to improve their performance. If they don't sign new players, maybe no change until the season ends. Liverpool will finish this season in the middle of EPL standings if no change in their performance. It is a shame that a big club like Liverpool can't finish in the top 5. I agree that Liverpool needs new top midfielders, they can't rely on Fabinho and Thiago only, these players sometimes get injured and can't play at their best. Liverpool needs young talented midfielders, Bellingham or Bruno Guimarães will be suitable for Liverpool. But unfortunately, no news about Liverpool interest on these players.

1835  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: January 15, 2023, 09:59:32 PM
After three defeats, Chelsea could finally win... But for now, they are still in the middle of the standings... I'm honestly sorry that such a too-club has had such a disappointing season this year... There is probably no chance of them making it to the Eurocups...
Dude, you can't judge them to fail or have no chance for the Europa zone, the season is still far from the end. There are still many matches, so the chance is surely very open. Chelsea is in 10th place with 28 points, it is only 5 difference points from Tottenham in 5th place. It is not impossible to overtake Tottenham in the 5th place as long as Chelsea can improve their performance in the remaining matches. But if they still perform inconsistently, surely they may fail to reach the Europa zone.

Next week Chelsea will go to Liverpool's home here their abilities and consistency will be tested obviously not easy to beat Liverpool at home
even if Chelsea can draw it is the best achievement without having to lose more points.
To beat Liverpool at home may be difficult, but it is not impossible.
Liverpool performance also looks poor lately, they only can struggle in the middle of EPL standings (9th place). Liverpool has the same points as Chelsea (28 points), which means both Liverpool and Chelsea have the same condition. In theory, the chance to win is 50:50. But if we consider the last match, Chelsea seems to have a better situation.

1836  Local / Trading dan Spekulasi / Re: [Untuk Newbie] Alasan Untuk Tidak Trading Uang Pinjam on: January 15, 2023, 09:56:09 PM
Yang namanya trading tidak lepas dari Resiko terlepas dari mana sumber uang yang digunakan. Bagi trader Ahli sudah memiliki pengalaman lebih siap menghadapi kemungkinan terburuk, sementara Bagi pemula tentu belum siap sepenuhnya menghadapi Kerugian.
Baik trading maupun investasi, dua-duanya punya resiko tersendiri. Tidak ada yang tidak ada resikonya. Cuman ada yang relatif aman dari resiko, beresiko, dan sangat beresiko. Tinggal pilih mau yang mana, dan tentukan gimana treatment terbaik untuk masing-masing level resikonya.

Newbie yang masih dalam proses belajar trading tidak disarankan menggunakan uang pinjaman karena berbagai hal yang dapat terjadi jika seketika terjadi Loss seperti dikejar-kejar Debt colector akibat kesulitan membayar cicilan dan gangguan psikologis yang mungkin akan membuat depresi.
Memakai uang dingin lebih menenangkan jiwa ketika terjadi Loss, trading tidak menjamin dapat memberi keuntungan, kerugian juga perlu dipertimbangkan.
Itu bukan masalah gangguan psikis saja. Tapi lebih ke pada potensi kesulitan mengembalikan. Selain itu, memang tidak ada jaminan profit. Maka, newbie sangat disarankan tidak pake uang pinjaman. Sekalipun mau mulai trading atau investasi, baiknya mulai dengan dana kecil-kecilan dulu sembari belajar. Nanti kalau sudah cukup ilmu dan jam terbang, baru make modal yang lebih besar.


1837  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Keep your emotions balanced especially regarding Bitcoin on: January 13, 2023, 09:18:43 PM
When you do see your portfolio is dropping even on small percentage then you would really get stressed and would be happy even if you do see some small percentage gain.
If you invest in Bitcoin for the long term, it is not necessary to check it very often.
Just keep it in your wallet and only check it when you think it is needed. Too often checking it will lead to stress and feeling emotional. It is such a waste to do, you won't sell the Bitcoin very soon. I believe people who are experienced in Bitcoin investment, rarely check their Bitcoin value if they invest for the long term. Only people who trade Bitcoin need to check the Bitcoin value every day.

1838  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is the $17,000+ bitcoin price breakout benchmark to new price direction on: January 13, 2023, 02:48:51 PM
Have crossed 19k recently but drops down to 18k again in which I am seeing that we are heading to new  direction comparing to what we have in 2022 though we are far from hitting at least 20k again?
but we have positive look to what will come sooner.
and hoping that this is not just for January but the whole year I wish.
Yep. Today, it passed $19k for a moment. Although it doesn't last a long time, it is surely a good sign that Bitcoin is likely to improve its price constantly. Once the price stays above $19k, it is not very far from $20k. In theory, $20k may be achieved in several days or weeks. But if there is bad news, the price may decrease again temporarily. However, these all are positive indications that this year seems better than last year. I bet Bitcoin already hit its lowest price last year, this year is a time to begin its improvement constantly. Let's hope there is not much bad news anymore, so the price can increase without significant obstacles.


1839  Local / Trading dan Spekulasi / Re: [Untuk Newbie] Alasan Untuk Tidak Trading Uang Pinjam on: January 13, 2023, 01:53:35 PM
Tapi bagi sebagian orang yang sudah 'tergiur keuntungan' bahkan orang yang dikatakan sudah mapan pun malah bisa lebih parah dalam berhutang hanya untuk 'untung-untungan' masuk dalam trading Bitcoin. Salah satu contoh yang belum lama ini beredar informasinya di salah satu media* mengenai anak kandung dari salah satu pengusaha perusahaan otobus ternama di Indonesia yang berhutang sampai milyaran rupiah untuk "main" Bitcoin bahkan sampai menjanjikan komisi sekian persen ke orang yang meminjaminya uang, namun berujung gagal.
Kalau saya baca beritanya, ini lebih ke karakter orangnya.
Si Rian Mahendra memang tipikal orang yang mikirnya dangkal dan ngerasa utang bakal gampang dibalikin oleh orang tuanya. Dia pake uang pinjeman buat main Bitcoin dengan menjanjikan profit 20%, padahal gak ada yang tau apa dia memang punya skill main Bitcoin atau tidak. Asumsi saya itu cuman akal-akalan dia doang, entah uangnya dipake benaran buat Bitcoin atau malah ke hal lainnya kita juga tidak tau pasti. Rasanya Bitcoin cuman dijadikan kambing hitam untuk alasan duid pinjamannya hilang.

Iya juga si om  Cheesy, intinya maksud saya kebutuhan disini sifatnya untuk keberlangsugan hidup kebutuhan pokok, berobat, bukan utang untuk sebuah kebutuhan Tresier. Pokoknya prinsip saya sama kek om deh, kalau bisa jangan sampai hutang apapun itu Wink.
Siap.  Smiley  Pinjem duid bisa menjadi opsi kalau memang tidak ada pilihan lain.

Chelsea's problem is basically similar to Manchester United last season. A team with some great players but there is something like missing link in the team to make the strategy works. Perhaps there is also an internal problem in the team that make them unable to work together well. Who to blame? I'd say the whole Chelsea as team to be blamed, starting from players, coach, management, owner, and others. With the current team, I do not see there is a player that can be a leader in the team. A player who can lead and motivate the team in any situation like Frank Lampard and John Terry years ago.
Agree. Chelsea lost a charismatic figure, a captain who had the influence to motivate the whole players and is able to coordinate all lines. Chelsea also has no strong strikers and no good midfielders. I think these two things are the biggest problems in Chelsea team. Unfortunately, these are difficult problems, these cannot be fixed very soon. Chelsea may need several seasons to deal with these problems, and no certain time to fix them. However, one of the solution is to sign good players both for attacking line and midfield line. Man United have proven it, by signing proper players, they can fix the problem gradually. Man United performance looks better after they signed Martinez, Antony, Eriksen, and Casemiro.  Smiley
