Maybe dumb question, but can someone explain my how username change helps in terms of privacy?
Because once you're on internet, you stuck here forever. You can change username, delete posts and so on, but all your data will stay. Like for example quotes of old your posts where your previous username is quoted. Or various scrappers and archives

Obviously it wouldn't delete your past history, but it would at least make it significantly harder to know your identity in the surface level. e.g. JohnSmith123 vs JS69

Another Bitcoin critic that makes a crap ton of nonsense arguments. Why am I not surprised.

So, what do you prefer, to sell your coins instantly for less or to open an order and profit a slight better margin, reaching the general market's prices rates?

It just totally depends how soon I want to get out of my position. When selling majors(BTC, ETH), I mostly just put in sell offers. When selling low caps with low liquidity, I mostly just slowly but surely put in sell offers as to not fill the orderbook with a scary huge sell order. On the other hand, if I see bad news and the market barely reacted yet, I just market sell.

We just had like 10 days of up market then suddenly people are this bullish already. Probably calm down a bit with the over-bullishness lmao.

Imo, OP is being bullish at the right time. There is a bullish divergence on weekly, we can pump to 20k+ in just one good trading week. Also, I saw overly positive funding on bybit a few days ago (at 16.5k) which was quite surprising but maybe that was the secret smart market makers accumulating serious longs at the bottom since the price only went up after that. There is something cooking inside for sure.

I mean, I feel slightly more bullish than normal as well, but I'm still very skeptical. On the other hand, over optimism can end very badly when making decisions off being overly bullish.
2165  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: age 28 is it too late or not to invest in bitcoin.? on: January 10, 2023, 06:24:48 AM
LOL! What does age have to do with investing in bitcoin? You only need money to invest. And usually young people have less money and less patience than older people, so the older you get the better you'll become at investments not the other way around.

I mean, age is indeed a factor when investing in general. If you're closer to death then risking money onto a volatile asset such as bitcoin might not make that much sense. On the other hand? 28? Lol. OP has a pretty long runway unless he/she isn't taking care of him/herself.
2166  Other / Meta / Re: Users Changed Name 2023 on: January 10, 2023, 06:03:10 AM
Just a heads up: There's a chance that some people might've requested a username change for privacy purposes, and such threads kind of defeats the purpose of the name change.
2167  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bottom of the Bear Market...let's accumulate!! on: January 10, 2023, 04:42:03 AM
you know your at the bottom when you suggest price will Not move more then 15% up for the next 4-6 months, and some how your labeled as a "over-bullish".
hahaha exactly. I was very confused how they took my post as being about bullishness lol.

"the bottom is almost certainly in and there is a good chance Bitcoin will start rising out of this bottom range in a few months."

That is almost certainly(though debatably) overly bullish in this current market condition; and no, a sideways chop definitely doesn't mean we're at a market bottom lol.

You'd expect that a person as wealthy as him would be a lot smarter than this. What did he expect? That $TSLA will just continue to skyrocket forever despite it being totally overvalued by multiples? Not to mention that Elon was and has always been totally allowed to sell his shares. The way he describes it is that Elon did an exit scam lmao.

Let's make a pessimistic assumption that you're going to die at an age between 50-60. Do you think you would make money with bitcoin by holding for 22-32 years? If yes, buy bitcoin. If not, don't buy bitcoin. Simple.

I really hate being a total utter killjoy and while I'd really love bitcoin to go on a bull market already, are we really getting bullish over this, this soon?



Like come on.
2172  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: at bitcointalk.org you have to be mentally strong. on: January 09, 2023, 05:00:12 PM
You're pretty much talking about conversing with people on the internet in general, mostly social media platforms. Bitcointalk isn't anything special. If anything, Bitcointalk is far less lax because you have benefit of being pseudonymous.
2173  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Newbie - need your advice after first trades (image joined) thnk you in advance on: January 09, 2023, 11:38:58 AM
So you only make $0.51 from 6-7 days with initial deposit $26? it's mean +0.020% for 6-7 days, it's less than bank interest account APY.

I will say trading isn't for you because most people can earn $0.51 in less than 6-7 days, even how poor the country he live is. I don't really understand why you need to trade with very low risk if investment is quite similar with that, you only need to hold your Bitcoin until the price reach very high in the next few years.

Not sure why you'd immediately think that trading is not for you just because you barely made anything in 7 days. I'm pretty sure it's going to take A LOT more than 7 days to learn the craft.

If anything, OP is lucky enough to not lose money(as most people do).
2174  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Exchanges lie to you! on: January 09, 2023, 04:12:07 AM
There needs to be a way to educate newbies though. Exchanges don’t do it do they, their business model relies on naive newbies storing their crypto on their exchanges.

I'm not totally sure, but as far as I know both Binance and Coinbase has articles on wallet security and self-custody. It's just that they don't promote/share these articles actively, for obvious reasons.
2175  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How profitable it is possible to invest in bitcoins in the new year 2023. on: January 09, 2023, 03:50:55 AM
If you can't make your own investment decisions, then you're really off to a bad start. If you're not willing to put in your own effort, use the money for something else you're interested in instead.
2176  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: I think it's wrong on: January 08, 2023, 07:08:02 PM
It can be said that history always repeats itself, and repeating here does not mean that everything will repeat in detail, each period will have different effects, so there will be differences. A bear market always comes after a bull market is over, and it always repeats that, that's called history repeating itself.

Because history repeats, if you want to predict the future, you have to look at history to judge, and no one can predict the future, so let's believe in history until a new history is created.

The better quote would be: "History never repeats itself, but it does often rhyme." by Mark Twain. It perfectly describes market cycles in general, not only with bitcoin/cryptocurrencies.
2177  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What Are Some Of The Most Efficient Ways To Invest My Bitcoin Earnings? on: January 08, 2023, 06:50:28 PM
If you're thinking about those yield-bearing platforms, then forget about it. It simply isn't worth the risk. If you want profit, sell some of your bitcoin and start a business/gig or get a second job(or first, if you currently don't have one).
2178  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Another lesson for those that are using custodial exchanges and wallets on: January 08, 2023, 04:25:39 PM
"We are modifying our withdrawal policy. While customers will continue to be able to withdraw their funds, at this time, we are limiting withdrawals to no more than 90% of the funds currently in each customer account, subject to current daily limits."

Man, I don't want to make quick conclusions, but this really smells like insolvency. You can slightly justify having a set amount of daily withdrawal limits due to regulatory reasons, but having a set percentage? That's just too fishy imo.
2179  Economy / Speculation / Re: what If Bitcoin Price never comes up on: January 08, 2023, 03:48:29 PM
I am just feeling bitcoin will never come to 50k at max

Or better yet, maybe tell us why you're actually "feeling" that bitcoin wouldn't go above 50k again? So we can actually start the discussion somewhere. Because if you don't have a half-decent reason, then this is pretty much just the typical novice mindset.

While I'll give props to Coinbase for remaining to be unhacked for a long time knowing they're one of the earliest crypto exchanges, I'm still not a fan of this statement. Though what the safest place to store your crypto is debatable, they could've used something slightly more acceptable like "a safe place to store your crypto" instead.
