It is very like the ICO mania days, where projects where springing up everywhere, due to the fact that Bitcoin was pumping. And ~95% of them had no unique utility and no value today.

This is what happens with erery trend; DeFi and now NFTs; they are getting so much hype and this attracts devs looking for quick cash, and creating lots of rug pulls.
I would say there are some real utility for NFTs, but it's greatly overshadowed by the bulk of scam and money grabbing projects.

The email account of majority of users who register on the forum, is hidden from public, and this website is not among the websites with access to user data, so a bulk of information is unavailable to them through tracking email addresses.

Another way they could try getting data is by checking what user's input on their profile, in the gender, age and country option, this would most likely be inaccurate as well as many users do not fill those slots and no guarantee that those who do, actually put in correct information.

I don't think I've come across a case where a particular user is restricted from making transactions with no reasons giving. But they do have the right to hold your Bitcoins as you agreed to their Terms of Service.
Not your keys; Not your coins.

They essentially let you use your Bitcoin as you do not have custody of it.

Only coinbase can allow you.
Have you tried contacting their support and maybe calling them out on social media?

Try the first option and wait for a reply and if that's not a satisfactory one, then you can call them out publicly.

Private keys are the means by which transactions are signed from corresponding addresses on the blockchain which were generated from they xpriv key. So, with the private keys you will be able to spend funds from that address.

If it were possible to generate private keys and public keys which has a balance on it, then it would not have been worth it, as the network would haveko value.

Anonymity and privacy are not the same thing.
Privacy essentially means that no one can track your activity, and being a public ledger, all transactions are visible and traceable.
Anonymity or pseudo anonymity, means that the activities on the blockchain cannot be linked to any real life identity or that multiple addresses cannot be linked together based off the flow of transactions.

With visible blocks, it's impossible to hide a transaction, but you can alienate it from any individual.

You're essentially asking what the result would be on the value of Bitcoin as a currency or asset after the halving, if there is no change in the difficulty level required to mine blocks?

In my opinion, that should somewhat have an effect on the value or hardness as you call it. It shows that miners deem the value of Bitcoin to still be the same, despite the fact that they are getting only half of the reward that was available, which could be an indication of an increase in the value from before the halving or an expected bull run.

This does not mean that there is a direct correlation and that there would be an immediate impact on the market if that happens, but it would influence trader sentiments

I'm having a hard time understanding your request, you don't have money for a hardware wallet, so you are running on a mobile wallet through your Android device; which part of this process requires you to copy your private keys?

On electrum, you will be giving your mnemonic phrase on creating an address and you can back that up physically and store in a secure location without having to copy or screenshot them, which are not advisable for safety.

• Have two devices, one is airgapped where you create a wallet with your private keys,
• On the second device which accesses the internet, you create a watch only wallet with your public key,
• When creating a transaction, you get your raw unsigned transaction on the watch only wallet and then sign that on the airgapped one.

You actually do not have complete privacy to how much of a coin you own on a particular address. All addresses are publicly verifiable, especially when sending out a transaction and the amounts on it can be checked through a blockchain explorer. What an explorer cannot do, is tell you who owns the address, hence the pseudo anonymity.

If I reveal an address for a transaction, let's say on the forum, it has to be posted publicly for a third party to link it to me, so I'm not fully de-anonymized. Also, the 2nd party who I'm revealing my address to, does not know of any other addresses I own.

Pseudo anonymous, and public.

I would think it would be easier to find publications for medical research or for topics from other more established fields than it would be to do so for Bitcoin. There is of course, Bitcoin wiki and other reputable websites, but a bulk of the information are spread around different platforms and not written in a scholarly form.

So, Yes; there would definitely be difficulties, but it's very doable, imo.

If you're good at finding and analysing data, then a new niche would be very fitting for you to research on, as you will be pioneering content for it and building the blocks for further research.
I can't offer much on what techniques to use for a Master's research.

Bitcoin currently has a trading volume of over $17 billion, someone moving around 4500BTC to an exchange is not reason enough to declare a warning for other Bitcoin users. The market can take such liquidity without a significant impact in the price, especially if it's done OTC.

Coin days destroyed, could factor in, if this sort of transaction occurs on a large scale and could indicate lots of old users are liquidating, but an isolated case would not much affect trader sentiments.

A global recession hits every market as it affects the spending capability of the community; This reduces how much money people have to put into different assets and usually slows demand and reduces the price.

To understand how this could affect Bitcoin, we can take a look at the 2020 crisis, where there was total and partial lockdown in most places, slowing economies to a halt, Bitcoin however maintained a fairly stable price and acted as a sort of hedge funds for most, while many other assets were going to the ground.

This of course, does not mean bitcoin is resistant to market crisis, the reaction would not always be the same.

It's also important to note, that BTC has its market cycles, so drops and spikes are not always the result of any particular cause.

Trust is not moderated by the forum; It is a community run system, through trusts lists and feedback.

Only those who place a certain trust on a profile, can remove it. So, you will have to contact the user which gave it, to remove it.

In addition to what Bitcoingirl.Club posted above;

If you're looking for someone to help you build an app or some other service related to your project; make a more detailed thread in the Services section, stating what services you need and how much you're willing to pay for it.

1BTC seems more reachable for many at $20k as opposed to $50k+, where the price hovered for a couple of months during the bull run, so it is not a surprise that some would be excited about the current price range. This price would not only favour those aiming to be wholecoiners, even large investors would also use this opportunity to buy more at a cheaper rate.

The most criticized holders now, would be institutional investors' and nations (like El Salvador) who hold Bitcoin in their reserves.

Sell offs usually create more panic in the market and is likely to cause more drops during bearish runs.
This is of course not much to consider if you're a trader interested in making profits.
Shorting is a trading strategy where one swaps a highly speculative asset at a price which they predict to be the top, in other to by back when it drops.

There are no wishes or believes, just predictions and speculations based on the market situation. There's nothing like 'a fan' of Bitcoin, we see qualities in the asset and choose to hold it. This does not mean you would always be optimistic about the market.

Again you're attaching too much to a financial asset.
Being a trader of Bitcoin doesn't mean you're ditching it, or fleeing.

The forum rules are not authoritarian regulations which are peculiar to this community alone, rather they are general rules of engagement when discussing on an online platform.
Note that only 2 rules would get you outrightly banned;
• Plagiarism, and
• Posting malwares,
It would be 3 if you include repeated spamming, but this comes after different amounts of temporary bans.

You do not need to be conversant with the forum rules to be aware that these (listed above) are not the right way to communicate with others.

---

There are other rules one might not be too familiar with online, like no referral links, deleting old bumps etc, but these would not get you a negative trust or a ban.
Newbies should read the forum rules and stickies in the different threads they visit, but do not shy away from posting if your intent is just to read and learn. Remember the rules are not fixed but determined on a case by case basis.

I'm not sure why there numbers are much lower now that it was some years ago; But on why they have different stats from other sites like bitnodes; it's about them recording non-reachable nodes;

Great compilation, I have used many of those website at some point and some I still use regularly and I must say they are quite useful for a Bitcoin enthusiast, if you want to get handy statistics.

Can't get pictures now, but here are some statistics websites I've used at some point;
• Coinatmradar; provides statistics on Bitcoin ATM installations around the world.
• https://luke.dashjr.org/programs/bitcoin/files/charts/historical.html ; Data on bitcoin nodes

First advice, is to consider hiring a Social Media Manager, especially if you have no prior skills in digital marketing or managing professional social media accounts.

Tips I can share on managing and growing an account;
• Have a worthy product; work majorly on building your project, website, art, etc. It's easier to market a product when it actually exists.
• Grow your knowledge of the industry your product is related to; with this you can share useful content and make your page relevant to visitors,
• Be consistent; being active gets attention to your project as it would keep popping up,
• Engage with profiles related to your niche, this can be through comments, joining spaces or sending a dm. Avoid spamming however,
• Repeat.

I'm also hopeful of Bitcoin becoming the world chief reserve currency, and being used for majority of international trades, but it's improbable that it would be the next one, if at all it's going to reach that status as lots of government politics goes into that.

There is likely to be at least one more currency which would topple USD as the global currency in the next century before Bitcoin would be globally accepted.
