Ive been into airdrops before and bounty campaign. I could say is before only few are joining the airdrops unlike now that dozens of people are lining up to join it which reduces the reward significantly. Also the value of airdrop before somehow considerable and huge but now its different too. Maybe not enough for a gas usage when you try to sell.

Also some projects are linked with scammers and only trying to use participants as a tool for marketing to execute a huge scheme.

Not all are scammers. Where is your place mate? If you arent have much close person to deal off then use some third party trusted p2p site like Binance id they did supported your country. They offer as mediator or escrow for the transaction and make sure youll get your money or else theyll hold the seller tokens as collateral if they plan to scam someone.

Not different with a non blue chip nft except that its branded as secure or legit. However, regardless whether its good, the nft market is highly saturated now and you can see a lot of projects go down. Maybe before its really profitable, and even use case sometimes its not that worth at all to hold and only those rich are shilling those expensive jpeg nft for a price raise.

Its good taking consideration to buy bitcoin and its not a bad decision considering its the number 1 cryptocurrency and only decentralized project 100%. Also it did come from an airdrop which isnt that hurt much if you get loss. Also its impossible for btc to stay this low in the long run.

That opinion by your friend is just a suggestion. He maybe right but for me bnb isnt bad at all especially with the use case and benefits on their platform.

Yes you are right. In time youll earn your first merit but with lots of research first. Maybe avoid talking about it for the meantime and talk other topic related to bitcoin or crypto. Some newbies are focusing on that thats why some got an idea that you are after merits, so I suggest you leave this for a while and research on other things. Good luck on your journey.

The best reasoning I ever read for 2023. To please your wife, I think its only you who could do that. Just explain that you are focusing on learning here but thats not an excuse to be so busy. Hanging around here doesnt mean you are 24/7 on your laptop/phone reading all threads.

Kinda feels your torn between a gold and an apple. You should really do some time management, and this is not even a choice to ask for.

Thanks for the tips. I think for simple desktop users these virus is really not good and can really deceived them. Not all are proficient to execute those of you suggested to avoid this kind of malicious files. So the safest way is always check what you download online cause with a simple site, it could ruin your asset once he able to set up those click baits.

Last year was terrible year with a lot of bad publicity and fraud exposures plus there is a recession ongoing. It hurts but those who lack convictions gotten in the way. I didnt actually thought the ftt incident as Sam is one of the biggest crypto user to be found to be like this. I do hope xrp can still be change, a lot to process but since they given another sweer escape on lawsuit maybe hope for the better but dont expect.

Even more scarier if this is true. Yes and thats really dangerous for any users. Imagine if this kind of virus pass on millions of platforms that are popular and some users might not be able to figured out this sooner. Lots of money will be compromise.

Theres no problem witg xrp in terms of utility in fact its much faster than bitcoin and less fees. However they are fully centralized. If you dont want to get caught on a massacre once they did it then better avoid it right? Anything centralized could turn away anytime and thats a fact. Take a look on what happened on other projects like FTT, this is a big fish but yet got died in the process. We never knew when these things would occur and it will be anytime and we sont have a clue for it.

I think that is too much praise. Its not that we dont believe in bitcoin but being overconfident to something that has volatile is still need precautions. Yes bitcoin is decentralized so being low or high is on its nature. We cant boosted it on some normies out there that its super legit. Why not explain how bitcoin works and let them do the grasping and let them decide whether its worth the penny or not.

The best one are always open source. Even its mobile or desktop as long as there are no closed source or centralized aspect its safe. There are many wallets proclaiming to be decentralized but of course we must not be deceived by those. Regarding malicious files. Im not sure if desktop are more safer than mobile though a lot of viruses have been found on desktop versions.

Find a farming or staking coins that has a huge apy and has certain moderate to high market cap. Yes it might be risky but there are some with good profits with it especially the price are stable or not going down fast. Or yet do some trading buy low sell high, in that you could do some profiting with your bitcoin earning. But you must understand the risk. Or put up some investment on mutual funds or any low risk business venture. Its always high risk high reward. Without that then you could only gain nothing much.

For me it depends. If I need the money right away then I just sell it on the market offers. Its not like a huge difference when bid on a sell offer. But If Im not on a rush then I just hold a good position on my liking and wait for it. Thats what I do when I am doing trading but not all the time since nowadays its quite bearish so its hard to do a short term trading.

Thats a strong malicious virus, I think monitoring ones activity is common but the ability to steal passwords and phrase, is that can be done for example there are saves files on his folders? Or only if he can sees the activity where the phrases are been look up into?

Is there any news of this fraudulent in apps and mobiles already or only on pcs and laptops? Thanks Op this is a great news another one to avoid.

Maybe lack of trust and assurance in ny opinion. In the article it says if not converted or change to accepted crypto then they will automatically converted it to usdc, does this mean that they will not get hold of it and instead change users token into different one. Cause if thats the case there is ni problem with that, but if they gonna take it then thats purely a legitimate scam appro.

Pretty obvious I guess. 1 bnb as softcap is like not enough for such fundamentals of the project. I really think that this project is joking around. I guess the evidence werent not sufficient but the act of deed might get some hint of possible scam. Pink sale presales are legit but afterwards projects did some rug pull. So better to be cautious when dealing with this kind of projects.

The funds are in your control there when they reflect on your account balance. He meant is if you are just gonna stay put your money there then its at risk of being freeze or what, at least if you gonna put your funds there use it for exchange or trading to make profit, or to increase your asset value. Thats only my interpretation of what he said.

Yes transaction are transparent on bitcoin ledger and has no third parties. But with its application there are tons of thrid party joining the league and also, there are ways to hide the transaction on it using some mixer, though this has been done by others. But you are right its the most decentralized crypto out there and no one can object with that. Bitcoin is the number 1 for a reason and Im glad that you are familiar with it.

Polkadot is a top L1 project and one of the major contender with ethereum, so seeing its price now at this bargain is definitely a gift. Who knows what could be the future of one of thw biggest project. But of course, in terms of trading perspective, we dont know if theres more going down with the current market. But doing DCA is not a bad idea.
