2141  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin can do 30k$ this month? on: March 17, 2023, 10:19:49 AM
I see that such analyzes follow the price, meaning that the price has risen. You will notice positive analyzes and vice versa. Therefore, as a trader, you should not try to follow them because they will increase your greed or fear, and both feelings are disastrous for your investment decisions.

Can the price reach 30K this month? We have a strong resistance point at $26,000, but do not forget that the Fed may not raise interest rates during the March meeting in the coming days, which means we may witness a 3-5% recovery, which may lead to breaking the top of $26,000.

If this happens, 30,000 are confirmed before the end of the month.
2142  Economy / Economics / Re: How will Fed bailing out banks increase inflation? on: March 17, 2023, 09:37:33 AM
It is called monetary policy, meaning that I will give something in return for preventing something else. During the past 6 months, the Fed's policy has been to limit hyperinflation to reach a healthy rate of 2%, and it has continued to raise interest rates to curb inflation and reduce market liquidity.

During the past week, a liquidity problem appeared in one of the banks, and thus panic began to affect all customers in most small and medium banks in the United States, and this may lead to the collapse of the economy, which prompted the Federal Reserve to intervene urgently.
So what is happening now is a temporary act to prevent the economy from failing, and it is a more urgent act than fighting inflation.

The problem is that reaction policy always leads to failure because it means economic confusion, so let's see what happens.
2143  Other / Meta / Re: Should the forum stop advertising mixers? on: March 17, 2023, 09:28:36 AM
I am surprised that many were surprised, as if it was the first time that a Bitcointalk ads-powered mixer has been seized.
The same story happened several years ago ----> https://www.zdnet.com/article/bestmixer-seized-by-eu-police-over-laundering-of-200-million-in-cryptocurrency/.

Quote
Bestmixer.io has been seized and shut down by European police for reportedly laundering over $200 million in cryptocurrency.

On Wednesday, Europol, the Dutch Fiscal Information and Investigation Service (FIOD), and Luxembourg authorities said six servers used to facilitate the service were seized in the Netherlands and Luxembourg.

Bestmixer launched in May 2018. Only a month later, police began investigating the mixing service and found that over the course of one year, the "world's leading cryptocurrency mixing service" had managed to launder at least $200 million in cryptocurrency on behalf of customers.

Bestmixer.io was a mixer who ran a signature campaign. However, we did not hear much of the analysis that took place now.


I do not know if it was a coincidence, but Bestmixer.io & CM was seized at the same at March 15
2144  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: [Telegram-Bot] BitnewsNotifier on: March 17, 2023, 06:19:38 AM
The bot watches multiple crypto news sites and notifies users (sends a message to the channel) as soon as an article is published. It's really nothing fancy, but I'm planning to add more features in the future, especially if I see people using it.
Is there an option to customize the type of news you are looking for, such as Bitcoin or altcoins, and its sources (add new,) or is it just a bot-powered channel?
I do not use Telegram groups, so I do not have knowledge of how they work, but if you can customize the channels, I will download/try it.
2145  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Can Solana hit $40 this year? on: March 17, 2023, 06:01:17 AM
I'd be rich if he got a dollar for every time I see this question
The $40 price represents the maximum value the currency has reached, and it is far from the current prices.
Also, the increase in competition will make it difficult for the currency to return to half of the old prices if an exceptional circumstance occurs, if it does not collapse, so do not build distant hopes like this.
2146  Other / Archival / Re: Sinbad.io Mixer - secure, fast and easy to use on: March 17, 2023, 05:37:51 AM
How wide reaching can the consequences of Chipmixer money laundering be?

Now that Chipmixer has shut down and an international arrest warrant been issued for their owner, how do you feel about possibly suffering the same fate?

According to this topic ---> Blender.io = Sinbad.io | Thoughts?
And if this is true, it will lead us to -----> First mixer sanctioned by US authorities (blender.io)

Quote
WASHINGTON – Today, the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) sanctioned virtual currency mixer Blender.io (Blender), which is used by the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) to support its malicious cyber activities and money-laundering of stolen virtual currency. On March 23, 2022, Lazarus Group, a DPRK state-sponsored cyber hacking group, carried out the largest virtual currency heist to date, worth almost $620 million, from a blockchain project linked to the online game Axie Infinity; Blender was used in processing over $20.5 million of the illicit proceeds. Under the pressure of robust U.S. and UN sanctions, the DPRK has resorted to illicit activities, including cyber-enabled heists from cryptocurrency exchanges and financial institutions, to generate revenue for its unlawful weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and ballistic missile programs.

It's just hypotheses, but if it's true, it won't take long for the justice authorities to do so.
More importantly, how does the site work on Cloudflare?
2147  Economy / Service Announcements / Re: [ANN] Coincraddle.com | Crypto Exchange Service with no sing up on: March 17, 2023, 05:28:47 AM
I think you need to work with the marketing team to write a good ANN topic or at least add an infographic.
The site asks me to leave an evaluation, but isn't it better to leave the evaluation through a third party that you do not control?
You have many positive reviews on trustpilot[1], but most of them were during the last three months.

The maximum amount of bitcoins that can be transferred is 120 bitcoins, which is a lot to ask without KYC, how did you manage it?

It seems that the rescue is on the way and the Federal Reserve will not disappoint the banks, as today's weekly H.4.1 update from the Federal Reserve showed

Quote
In the week ended March 15, borrowings under the Fed's deeply stigmatizing last-ditch liquidity facility, the Discount Window, exploded to $152.85BN, a record $148BN weekly jump to an all-time high which surpassed even the borrowings during the financial crisis!





At the consolidated level, the surge in new liquidity created by the Fed meant that the Fed's balance sheet rise by $297bn - its biggest jump since April 2020 and erasing 4 months of QT, or half of the entire program!

2149  Economy / Economics / Re: Lending money or damaging family bond ? on: March 16, 2023, 04:30:01 PM
It is a complicated issue, but you should know that the money that you lend to a dear person is zero, otherwise it will get you into high problems that have no benefit because he will not be able to pay his debts, so you will not go to court and demand his imprisonment.
Therefore, if you need money, do not lend it, and if you are not in need, try to give him 30% of the loan and watch his behavior.
2150  Economy / Economics / Re: Why is Bitcoin always affected on: March 16, 2023, 04:11:38 PM
The market capacity of Bitcoin is still small, which did not maintain one trillion for a while, while to reach stability, I think we need a market capacity between 5 trillion to 15 trillion, which means that we are still very early.
In order to reach that capacity, the demand must increase, which may take from 5 years to 30 years, which is sufficient time for this technology to mature or be replaced.

If you notice, the percentage of impact in recent years is much lower than the situation was several years ago.
2151  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Minted my first NFT on BTC on: March 16, 2023, 03:35:11 PM
I can't understand why people love NFT? What is the point of getting a picture and paying money for it? I used to think that the targets would be the rich stuff but it is strange to find the average person paying $1,000 for such nonsense.
I do not know why there are economic and other fees, but they are like by writing your name as OP_RETURN on the blockchain
2152  Other / Off-topic / Re: A word of motivation on: March 16, 2023, 03:24:00 PM
It's great to see how bitcoin has affected people's lives, but you didn't tell us how you earned those currencies, when you bought them and how much return on investments.
How long would it have taken you if you were not invested in bitcoin? Is this something easy for the rest of the young people, or will they find it difficult to renovate their house if they wish to do so?
+ average costs.
2153  Economy / Economics / Another bank?! | First Republic Bank stock halted for volatility on: March 16, 2023, 03:02:43 PM

Shares of First Republic
 and several other regional banks were under pressure again Thursday, as the Swiss National Bank’s move to shore up Credit Suisse did little to calm fears about more midsized bank failures in the U.S.

First Republic fell more than 30% in morning trading. PacWest
 dropped 14%, and Western Alliance
 shed about 12%.

The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank last Friday has left investors scrambling to identify other regional banks that have similar balance sheet issues, namely a high rate of uninsured deposits and bonds or loans with a long time to maturity.

First Republic had the third-highest rate of uninsured deposits among U.S. banks, behind SVB and Signature Bank, which was closed by regulators over the weekend, according to a note from Raymond James. First Republic’s stock was down nearly 75% in March as of Wednesday’s close, and the bank’s debt has been downgraded by S&P Global Ratings and Fitch Ratings.


Source ---> https://www.cnbc.com/2023/03/16/first-republic-falls-25percent-as-regional-bank-stocks-continue-to-sink.html

It seems that all banks with a high rate of uninsured deposits will be at risk and perhaps next on the list, as after SVB and Signature Bank lies First Republic, which lost 30% of its name value during the day and the bank's debt ratings were lowered by S&P Global Ratings and Fitch Ratings.
2154  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Somethings are unique and different Royse777 did today. on: March 16, 2023, 02:55:40 PM
It is good that he made this decision and we hope that nothing will happen to them or to all those involved in this campaign over the past years.

I think we will start to see a lot of topics that will analyze what happened. I expect many topics such as:

How will posting rate will be changed after ChipMixer campaign stops?
Should mixing services be banned in the forum?
What will happen to the people who promoted ChipMixer ?
Can we promote mixing services here.
This is unfair, why members of ChipMixer campaign were added to new campaigns quickly.
Will the forum send IP addresses to the US government?
Will @ChipMixer account be active again?
Will ChipMixer back?
Best alterative for ChipMixer.
2155  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What does Cross Chain mean on Polygon & Arbitium One Networks? on: March 16, 2023, 02:42:47 PM
Here is where I am confused.
Think of it as if you are using the Lightning Network within 2nd layer. Confirmations are instant, but you need to make one transaction on mainnet network if you want to transfer your Matic to Ethereum, so the bridging time is supposed to be the same as the time to perform a mainnet transaction.
which DEX ask for 4 hours? maybe it is a liquidity problem
2156  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Why it's very boring to trade on public holiday's? on: March 15, 2023, 10:38:06 AM
and trading on holidays like saturday and sunday, it become very boring day, there are very small candles forms, and very low profit or no profit at that day.
like this: https://ibb.co/jVFq39F
First, Bitcoin does not follow a specific time pattern during short-term trading, and therefore the normal situation is the randomness of the price movement.
Sometimes, when the price stabilizes, trading volumes during holidays or weekends increase, and the reason for that is that traders like you and me have more free time in those days, and the closing of stock exchanges makes risk-loving users a good opportunity to try Bitcoin.

Again, everything I say is theoretical, and it is when the price is stable, and it is better to follow the support and resistance levels.
2157  Economy / Economics / Re: Crypto Banks ironically went bust from US Treasuries on: March 15, 2023, 10:28:48 AM
We cannot describe the investment in US Treasury bonds as the reason for all the chaos that occurred, but rather the increase in high-risk investments in those banks and the lack of good management for those banks.

It is difficult to appoint excellent management, but there must be good control methods to predict such problems before they occur and thus reduce them.
In terms of bank investments, more legislation will suffice.
So it is more of a management crisis than an investment crisis.

Promotion services in Trending and Most Visited on coinmarketcap.
100% guaranteed. The best prices for services!

Transactions through guarantors.
For the first customer who leaves a review, I will make a discount.

For all questions, go here: https://t.me/i_SerSten
What is the nature of the service? Are you a buyer of advertising space and want to resell it? Or do you provide a currency ranking service?
Generally, buying back ad space may be against their terms of use.
As for ranking service, it is unethical behavior, and your coin will not continue to be up.
Anyway are you ready to use escrow service?

If it has been hacked, OgNasty is an active member, so he will appear in the forum will sign a message.
It could make sense if he decided to sell his account, but I don't think he would.

What are the reasons that led you to believe that it was hacked?
2160  Economy / Economics / Re: Bank Bailouts and Stock Market. on: March 15, 2023, 08:10:41 AM
The only beneficiary is the big giants, which are the banks that have assets higher than a trillion dollars, as the possibility of their bankruptcy is less, and therefore all liquidity will be transferred to those banks, and then there will be no global financial crisis.
Generally, the scenarios are open to all possibilities, but changing the speed of interest rates may not be an option at the present time.
