It's quite mind boggling how ATM count increased, knowing how incredibly inferior Bitcoin ATMs are versus your typical centralized exchange. Post 2017 bull run, I expected Bitcoin ATMs to just slowly but surely grind lower lol.

Both MicroStrategy and The Block aren't building anything on top of Bitcoin though? MicroStrategy just holds(and have some written content) bitcoin, while The Block is a crypto news site.

I'm not a fan as mining-related companies can technically still go bust due to company mismanagement even if bitcoin is on an upward tear. The only single reason why I would personally buy a mining-related stock is if the stock is fundamentally significantly undervalued. But then, I'd immediately sell the stock once it gets mildly close to fair value.

Like it or not, signature campaigns is what keeps Bitcointalk afloat in terms of traffic and activity.

If you personally think that post quality is bad because of signatures, you can start a self-moderated thread and simply delete the replies that you deem useless/spammy. Alternatively, probably try the Serious Discussion[1] section(though it's a general discussion section, not necessarily a Bitcoin one).

You can also help contribute concerning post quality by reporting posts that you deem useless/spammy.

It was a decent move imo. While the hashtags are unrelated, it gives good visibility for the tweet. Don't forget that while you like it or not, a good chunk of people who follow those hashtags could be interested in such books as well.

Why should the book be without the Roger Ver drama? The BCH and BSV debacles are one of the biggest swindling attempts in the entire Bitcoin space; it should definitely be added in.

It doesn't matter much what most people think. What's great about Bitcoin is that you don't really need to care much on what people use it for, as long as you can use it for your preferred purpose.

Because fk the authorities and I don't want them having control over my finances.

And of course, money. Who doesn't want to take advantage of the value increase?

Technically, yes. But in the grand scheme of things, KYC does more harm than good. We couldn't count now how much platforms(inside and outside the cryptocurrency space) have been hacked and with their databases breached.

1. Use a hardware wallet. (Ledger/Trezor)
2. Try to earn more money by mowing lawns and stuff to be able to invest more
3. It's okay to hang out with friends and stuff, but stop buying useless crap

I'm personally long-term bullish on bitcoin, but there's no guarantees with bitcoin going up and there's no guarantees with literally anything concerning markets. With investing, you just need to weigh in the risks/reward ratio to determine if something is worth investing in.

There's no one-size-fits-all formula for this knowing that every single one of us here have different risk tolerances and different financial situations. Maybe start out with not investing money you can't afford to lose.

The blockchain transaction fees are paid by the payer though, not necessarily the business.

Also — yes, fees can be quite high at times, but this is why smart people are testing out solutions for people to be able to transact in a cheaper manner. (e.g. sidechains, layer-2s, etc)

Mind telling us a few pointers on what you specifically talked about? Hopefully you truly know what you're talking about, because sometimes no information is better than bad information; especially in the context of bitcoin and investing in general.

If people make money over something — may it be through a business, job, or investments, it helps the economy simply because those people have more buying power. With more buying power, businesses flourish.

No beginner should simply touch futures — or worse, high-leverage futures. Even some people that have been in this industry for years can manage to blow up their bankrolls with bad risk management.

No one should even need to take posting this seriously. All you need to do is to not spam, not plagiarize, and don't post useless stuff. That's pretty much it. For some reason people here tend to talk about Bitcointalk as some ultra-complicated thing that you need to study.

The way markets work — the only way bitcoin would reach zero is if there was literally zero demand. What are the chances that bitcoin would have zero demand? Zero. You'll even catch me making bids at 3 digit bitcoin prices.

You didn't necessarily do anything wrong, it's just kinda unnecessary. People reading your last thread would've read hosseinimr93 reply about the Bitcoin.org website anyway. Also taking into consideration that the same statement has been repeated numerous times already across multiple threads.

If literally everyone just held then the price will simply freeze — simply because no one's selling hence no one could buy. Obviously this is literally impossible to happen because there will always be sellers even if the markets are very very bullish.
