Point of correction, you can't be a Bitcoin holder and also an anti-bank person.

You need money to survive, so your salary will still go into your bank account, you also can't spend your Bitcoin in the real world without changing it into Fiat and that Fiat will head into your bank account.

Look around you and tell me how many stores are accepting crypto payment? It would have been a different case if Bitcoin is widely accepted this days, I as a person would totally stop using the bank for good but it is not going to happen.

Stooping the bank is like stopping the government, the only solution is co-existing, and let's not forget that the government will forever keep hating on any invisible ways of spending money, because of criminals and illegal activities, they won't want such, so Bitcoin money to bank account is inescapable.

I heard you, it is like what someone also said that this person is from a rich home anyways, if he isn't lacking why is he into illegal activities?

If you are very rich and you have children, you don't need to teach them the right from wrong, just let them do what they like because they have a rich father or rich family.

How is my topic not matching? That I am telling people either from rich home or not to abstain from illegal activities and instead they should learn a skill atleast to start making money, how is this not matching?  

For someone who is into drug trafficking and other illegal things, how is telling them to learn a skill instead not making sense? When you have your kids teach them how to pass drugs around and see what happens.

Maybe you should read the whole content again.

To me it is not about the percentage that I should sacrifice to gambling activities, you need to come up with an amount, assuming you are using $30 for gambling, let it be this $30, because it is all you can afford to lose in gambling, so even if you are making $1000 from your job you still need to keep using $30 in gambling.

Let's say you start getting more than $1000 every month, you don't need to increase this amount, because $30 is what you can always afford to lose, stick to this amount and keep growing, remember that gambling might not get you anywhere, instead use money to invest in assets.

Investing in assets will bring you a better future, you could get lucky in gambling  as well but this strategy won't make you relax on gambling, keep risking $30 every time in a month and that's it for gambling side, but take more risks in investment.

Why? Investments bring promised results and gambling is like catching the air, which do you think is likely to come true?

Anyone who uses 1xbit deserves to get scammed, sorry to say but this is true, you choose to use a gambling platform that has bad ratings and reviews on this forum, you saw it coming so don't come on here looking for people who will fight your fight, you can't win this one so just deal with it.

This platform is a shameless piece of crap, what is there to protect you from? They don't even care about their reputation being ruined and so far it has been ruined and they still end up scamming people like you.

You can't clear anything with 1xbit, there is no way you can do it and no one will help you, not even the authorities, so stop fooling yourself, accept your losses and be thankful that the amount isn't even very large, next time be careful about the casinos you choose to use for gambling.

On here, some posts are made in the hope of getting merits while some are created out of genuinity, the fact side of this is people will see through it, my dear friend my advice is to be a realistic.

Don't fake anything on here, drop your opinions, and write just like the way you feel even if it will look bad in the face of many, your words define who you are and the truth is always not so friendly.

Forget merits, engage in discussion, this will reveal your intention on here, and merits will find you when it is right, some opinions will touch some members and they will have no other choice than to send you merits.

Remember, be the real you.

Hi everyone, here is another example why you can't and shouldn't launder money using cryptocurrency.

https://crypto.news/heir-to-cartier-empire-arrested-for-attempted-money-laundering-using-usdt/

Many newbies and beginners believe that crypto is a way they can move funds without the government knowing, you are wrong, in fact crypto is a very bad way of laundering money, everything you do can be traced.

This guy is charged with drug trafficking and laundering of funds using USDT, I can't stop laughing when I read this news, USDT that's even wired to clap on illegal funds, it is centralized in and out.

If your source of money is not clean, crypto is not your home, where you should feel safe.

Some people might say why USDT, but let me tell you, even with Bitcoin and others you can still be traced, you will leave some footprint behind, it could take longer but one day, you will make a mistake.

Abstain yourself from illegal ways of making money, learn a skill and you will be set for life.

What are you saying? Who gave the online casino the go-ahead to operate? Isn't it the government? Who is regulating this online casino? Isn't it the government? Why do you think that these online casinos are asking for KYC? It is what the government ordered them to do.

They are doing this because there might come a time when an investigation needs to be carried out, and if all members already submit their information they will be able to do their investigation on each member using the casino, there will be no room for illegal funding and embezzlement of funds and other criminal activities.

Terrorism is a disease, drugs hurt society, and these are wars that the government has to fight, I don't blame them for monitoring humans, there are many bad eggs among the good ones even while the government rules, there are still many illegal activities, let them do their thing, they are just trying to protect their people.

Beginners need to learn from this, the importance of ANN can't be beaten, just imagine if such never existed, it will be harder to fix this problem, and there are some people that will still choose online casinos that have no ANN on this forum, it is complete stupidity.

If a online casino cares about their reputation they will always respond to their ANN page, it is a good place to solve problems instantly, not even the casino email account or trying to reach them through telegram will solve this faster.

I  am glad that you are getting somewhere with your problem, this casino is a very reliable one, they have a long time reputation to protect so they will solve yoit issue, you just have to comply with everything you are been asked to do.

I would love to be a part of this, I hate war and I am deeply sad every time I think about the Ukraine and Russia war, but I do have a question.

Since Ukraine is now a warring country, are you saying that their electricity still works? Are you saying that their internet is still up and running? How will they get BTC payment if the internet is down?

Or there is a small neighborhood country besides Ukraine that can get this job done for them? I am even thinking about how it's a disadvantage that Bitcoin can only work with the internet.

I also want to use this moment to thank everyone that is in support of this country, they need help, I can't just imagine myself been in such bad state that they are, it is scary and inhuman at the same time, so sad.

Gambling can be anyone's hobby, this sits right with me but choosing gambling as my hobby is something I don't want to do at all, I would prefer to turn something thats not about luck into my hobby to avoid getting addicted to it.

I watch my time spent on online casinos and I always use small amounts of money, even while I gain some excitement from this I know it is not something I can waste a lot of time on, the more time I spend on gambling the more hurtful it will become.

I would rather choose something else, like playing football or watching movies. These are for free, I can play as many rounds as I want until I get exhausted and I can also watch as many movies as I want, this is a true hobby, in a safer manner but not gambling.

Always protect yourself if you choose gambling as your hobby, it is dangerous.

You took this too far mate, it looks like you are the victim here, you are simply fighting for yourself, I feel your pain, we've all been there but take it easy, some will correct your mistake in a friendly way and some will correct you as if they are fighting you, but the way you wrote this topic makes me feel like you will harm someone in real life if they harshly correct you.

I have been corrected in both ways on this forum before, there are few ones that I don't like, OK how about this?

I created a topic about my father and how I was unable to pay him bad after all he did for me, and he is dead, will you believe that someone on this forum made a joke out of it? I was writing the topic in pain and that was someone reaction, it was painful but I just let it go.

You need to let it go mate, but what they are actually trying to correct could be true, have you checked yourself out? Try fixing it and stop taking it to heart, this is the only way you will improve.

I have a friend in an African country called Ghana who is a crypto trader, days ago he called me to ask about Bitcoin mining and I am pretty sure that he is very interested and ready to spend a hefty amount of money, I was happy to be a part since he wants my advice on how to go about it.

What I don't like about the plan is how he wants to set up 20 Asic miners using illegal electricity, I told him to drop the idea, there is no way he won't be caught sooner or later, we are still on the matter, and I do hope he listens.


Fast forward to Yesterday, I saw this online, happening in Thailand right now, this wasn't the first time, months back, some illegal mining farms in Thailand were bursted, 40 Bitcoin miners here and another 50 in an underground area in different locations, now it is becoming a tug of war for Thailand government.




https://english.alarabiya.net/News/world/2024/05/03/thailand-police-raid-illegal-bitcoin-mining-operation-

I don't understand why people are becoming so greedy with Bitcoin mining.

How can you have the money to buy 690 Asic miners, thats millions of dollars and you plan to plug all these miners using illegal electricity? There is no way the electricity association won't know that something is up, it is only a matter of time.

Also, if one can have millions of dollars to invest in Asic miners, one won't be spending this much to buy lots of Solar panels at discounts from companies directly, maybe six figures in buying panels and it will do, then use the grid power at night and Pay For the Grid.

If you are doing this it is better to stop, or you might end up in the prison and you will lose a lot of money, your Asics will be destroyed or seized not never exist again,  it is not a must to start mining Bitcoin and if you want to do it, please do it the right way.

Abstain from illegal mining operations.

Is it just Bitcoin investment? Nah, this advice is for everything else that has to do with investment, don't invest in something you know nothing about, not even if you know too less, make sure you spend time doing research first.

I had no money when I came across Bitcoin and I ended up having a lot of time to do research, almost everyday I would write up about Bitcoin and after I did this I embarked on Bitcoin mining, I end up understanding a lot about Bitcoin, if I had money from the beginning I could have rushed it up.

Lack of patience with Bitcoin among beginners is because they have the money to risk, they prefer to invest first and learn later and this have made many people yo lose their hard-earned money.

Desktops and Laptops are not computers just because he failed to ad d computer side Desktop computers and Laptop computers? We all get what he is saying either ways, he is talking about computers anyways, I understand and I am sure many people did too, as you can see, you are the only one saying this, no one cares.

Bigger screens are my favourite, even in trading the difference is big, you can see the details very well, I will love to gamble on a computer because of the gaming experience as I prefer slots more than anything else.

Gambling on phone is easier but not all online casinos look nicer on a smartphone screen, the choice is yours though, also I don't want to keep gambling on phone because it could trigger more reasons to keep gambling for me, apart from reading and posting using my phone on this from, I prefer doing other things like trading and gambling on my computer.

Not all risks in life should be classified as risk, some are life threatening, all in the name of no risk no rewards is why some people from a good family will decide to rob a bank or kidnap someone to ask them for ransom, and they ended up losing their lives through gun shot from the police.

Armed robbers too believe that in this life everything is about risk, but to me not all risks are worth taking, just because I could escape and avoid getting caught which will eventually netting me some money doesn't mean I should become a criminal, even if its for the day, that first day could spell the end for me.

In this life, not all risks are worth taking, some are better off avoided, to pay the price of my early Bitcoin investment I got sick, instead of me using money to invest from a salary I decided to starve myself, nothing is truly free in life, we must be smart enough to wager the risk and reward first.

It's not everyone thats gambling today is supposed to be a gambler, but people don't think, not after they found themselves in such a shit hole.

Hmm, good one OP, apart from spamming, this explains why some members on this forum screamed out about getting scammed after they took matters into their own hands, something they could have prevented by just asking a simple question.

They already knew that this forum is here to solve problems or crypto related issues, when the create a topic believe it that they already made the mistakes now they want some sympathy.

The costly mistakes I made in crypto was before I found this forum, I had no one, not a single teacher to guide me right when I was new to Bitcoin, I made almost all the mistakes in crypto space, and when I found this forum I was like, why now? Where was this before I started my crypto journey?

I don't blame them, some people don't even know what they want, there are thousands of accounts in this forum that are no more active, I bet many gave up, I have introduced like 4 people to this forum all because they want to learn about crypto, at first they are active but after they stopped, they got tired.

Am I the only one who thinks that OP is not talking about the Binance exchange but the Binance chain? I bet this is the case.

I am also curious, I will like to ask the audience, is it possible to use any non custodial wallet to sign messages?

Or let me put it this way, apart from Bitcoin and it's non-custodial wallets, are the signing of messages possible on other blockchains, altcoins, or projects if they are on a non custodial wallet?

I asked because till date I've never tried it elsewhere.

Thank you.

It seems like your brother is the one who have the spare money that is worth using for investment and not you? If not you won't be forcing him to buy Bitcoin when you have none yourself, am I right or wrong?

I also wonder what will happen right now if you Bought at 74k and now it is down to 57k, how will you feel? You haven't even taste failure before, i expect that you will react and your emotions will get the best of you, maybe sell the Bitcoin in fear that 74k was the top.

Many people already sold right now, they can't withstand to see losses in their portfolios, my advice for people like you is to consider Bitcoin only if you have spare money that you can afford to lose, just think if you already bought Bitcoin at 74k, you will feel very hurt if you use money that you aren't ready to lose.

Sorry to say but to me it feels like people are hurt when it comes to alternative coins, they must have made terrible mistakes with altcoins and they ended up focusing on Bitcoin only, yet the hate lives in them till date, I read some comments in this thread and that is the vibe that I am getting, even from high ranking members on the forum, it's just sad.

I can't imagine myself saying that Bitcoin isn't a cryptocurrency, and the word crypto is just a short word for cryptocurrency, why are they trying to say otherwise then ? They all sound hurt, this is my believe.

Funny thing is, since I knew crypto I have made more money from alternative coins than Bitcoin, this doesn't make me hate any, even few altcoins scammed me but I learnt that i was the one lacking, so I got better at picking the right altcoins, so far I am doing well with all coins, including Bitcoin itself.

This is how it should be.
