Well, litecoin didn't exactly fall out, it just dropped to 21st place.
But now it's not only far to the 3rd place, but also to the top ten in principle.
It is well noted that the HOLD strategy can be successful, but you need to understand what you are going to do in the end? When to get into fiat? Or do not go out at all and wait when almost everyone would be accept payment with bitcoin.

The HOLD strategy works at a long distance only for Bitcoin and Ether. There are only 3 cryptocurrencies from Top 10 by capitalization in 2017 still in top 10 now in 2022 - BTC, ETH and Ripple.
All the others cryptocurrencies dropped out of the top 10, including Litecoin(which is still good) and Bitcoin Cash.
Therefore, I would not say that HOLD is a 100% winning strategy. It is always necessary to monitor the market, otherwise you can easily get losses.

*might*

For me, if you are a responsible and well-knowledge trader even what is the condition of the market (bear market or bull market) you can still earn profits.
For example, doing futures trading because as you know, we can short the market or make profits even price is dumping. I know some people who makes lot of money even bear market.

The current situation in the Nikolaev region leaves much to be desired ... since the Russians, under the cover of chaotic artillery attacks on the regional center, are moving their troops in a northeast direction. Does anyone else really believe that the MLRS "Grad" can hit the city's military facilities in the evening?

If it were not for the evening, the day would have been tolerable, since for almost the whole day I did not hear any signaling sounds and was in a good mood doing important things, and my wife cooked food again, (I think I'll have to devote a couple of days to family and work, so I'll see you in the middle of the week).


By the way... from VERY good news.

• I found about 10 tons of free potatoes 400 kilometers from me.
• I found in the neighboring region baby food, diapers, etc. at prices much lower than wholesale prices.

But the catch is that in my tiny car I will not take either one or the other, so on top of everything else on the weekend I will also look for drivers with my trucks!

Good luck to everyone and a peaceful sky above your head.

The war is not just between Ukraine and Russia. Its war between Europe and Russia and the frontline is Ukraine, where Russian bombs are killing innocent Ukrainian children. As for the issue of international relations, The most powerful thing is political and economical isolation, which of course is very bad for everyone but  may help to stop war.

Your chart still shows absolutely nothing that relates to vaccine efficacy. I've explained this before, so not sure why you persist in posting it. What point are you attempting to demonstrate?
BTW - on a totally unrelated note, did you know that more people die in plane crashes now than a hundred years ago? Time to get rid of that crappy modern technology and go back to building stuff out of wood and bits of string, amirite?

In a world, where Bitcoin exists, all sanctions are pointless.

One reason that the pandemic became a global event is because countries (and economies) are so intertwined now, much more than in the past. Previously a new virus arising in China might have remained in China, but in the 21st Century anything that arises anywhere is likely to spread around the globe.

On the war side, though, the fact that countries and their economies are so intertwined should disincentivise aggression. It's a major reason that big countries haven't attacked each other directly since WW2, whatever damage you can do to your opponent will also cause huge harm to your own economy. Of course there have been proxy wars and small-scale aggression, but never enough to cause a major economic reaction. What we are seeing now with Russia is a country (or rather a man) who is testing the boundaries of what he can get away with. The level of sanctions and companies disentangling themselves from Russia is unprecedented, and will cause huge damage to Russia... and hopefully (provided he doesn't resort to nuclear weapons) provide a clear example for the future that this sort of aggression will come with a huge cost.

You have to be seriously fucked in the head to think that there might possibly exist "really strong reasons" to destroy the world.

Or you're just shitposting random phrases with no clue what you're talking about.

To be fair, Putin and his rich buddies are largely responsible for corruption in Ukraine over the past 15+ years.

And If things go his way enough, it wouldn't be a surprise if a chunk of the donations end up in the pockets of Russians.  So you're not wrong.

I don't know if you missed it but Putin has bombed civillians deperately and repeatedly. He has targeted residential areas, hospitals and schools where no military infrastructure is located: https://twitter.com/CBSNews/status/1499633290004905985
Luckily we have internet and everyone can see Putin's war crimes.

There's nothing you can do but save yourself the conflict and save the hardware wallet. If there is no Internet, no cryptocurrencies, you have to wait for the situation to be conducive to moving away from the war zone and it seems that Ukrainians has gone to neighboring countries, then it is time to act on accessing hardware wallets.

You are exaggerating, how many have died already? If you compare this time to past that happened like these, it is way more chaotic, people died here and there. Remember Spanish flue, remember the holocaust, remember the wars that have already happened way back. There are more people that have died, and it is not close enough for you to be over reacting. The only thing that makes it worst now is because it is broadcast, sympathizers here and there, putting gas to fire, making it worst even more. Dramas are created, media lies in front of you, information that are aired are misleading, making the the one who is right a culprit and the the aggressor are the ones who are being seen as a hero. If we see it clearly, books are now disregarded and history is forgotten, where knowledge is acquired from social platforms, with unknown credibility.

I think Putin's apologists will soon have something else to worry about. It looks like protests in Russian cities are gaining intensity, despite beatings and arrests by the police. Obviously pro-Putin media isn't gonna report on it, and other outlets have been banned or voluntarily packed up due to new censorship laws, but there is still Telegram and other apps.

Holding cells are filling up so I'm guessing shooting at crowds would be the next step.

In light of the current situation, Ukraine's desire to join NATO is clearly justified. Ukraine was concerned about Russian aggression, especially after the Crimea, and wanted protection. NATO membership became a shared goal for the majority of Ukrainians after Russia's military occupation of Crimea. Who is Putin to deny them that right?

Regardless of how you spin it, aggression against a sovereign state with a legally elected government can never be justified. No matter what the issue, Ukraine's sovereignty and independence must be respected by all powers. Putin is a war criminal and it is time for Western countries to stand up to this aggression.

The rising fuel prices really make me worry. It was to be expected that a new major conflict is going to make the energy prices soar, but at the rate we are seeing right now is alarming. The gas stations seem to change their prices two times a day. What is very surprising right now is that Diesel prices are even more expensive than normal fuel. Diesel was usually cheaper than other fuel types, but since Russia is a big exporter for Diesel that doesn't hold true anymore.
The big issue with rising fuel prices is that we already have high inflation rates last year. Food prices are rising, construction materials are at an all time high, and now fuel and energy prices are following. If this continues than we could face a inflation spiral that will increase all other prices too. Once all the consumer prices reach new all time highs, wages have to rise also. I wonder how the politicians are going to solve that dilemma.
