Yeah the first post in the 14 day period adds 14 activity to you.

And yeah you'll just have to wait for the next periods to be able to rank up.

There's no predetermined activity points to get legendary though and I think it was set to be a random number and people have waited a long time to get it in the past (some right at the end of the 1100 limit). I just wouldn't wait on it, I think merit is the better stat anyway.

I'm pretty sure the zombie idea was taken directly from an old tribe that predicted it and then translated as something Nostradamus included in their prophecies.

I thought zombies was the dead coming back to life in those texts though, perhaps equivelant to the use of cpr and ventilators that are now widespread at least in rich countries.

All countries should have a view to ending the pandemic as the wealthy economies are to blame for it and it's cheap enough to produce the vaccines. (~€250bn to vaccinate the world with 2 doses of the vaccine). There's the other possibility that vaccines will lose their patent in 7 years so that might be what we're waiting for for some poorer countries to get it.

I think China is trying to acquire countries too, they've been trying to do that in Africa and the pandemic might help them do it (since they can't find a way to reduce their population and want a way to increase their quality of life so they look an attractive place to live) - the countries around China seem to be quite strong economic allies of Europe though: Singapore, Thailand, Bangladesh and Taiwan. And there's India off on its own with quite a lot more strength than China (being less isolationist).

@ratimov, it's dependent on their first post in the 14 days. unless an actual recount (that Theymos does manually run sometimes) changes your post count or activity - this is probably quite rare though.


Actually, I think there's an internal rule after 300 activity and posts that your activity goes up by 14 after your first post.

At current the exchange rate for bdt to usd looks stable. If you've got a lot of cash you might be able to find a European bank that you can save euros in (after converting - if converting isn't too expensive).

It's possible if loan default is increasing or the bank's surplus is decreasing (such as more withdrawals than deposits) that:
1. The bank just collapses
2. The central bank just starts printing money to bail everyone out

The second is the most likely but I'm not sure if that'd cause an inflation problem or not (although I doubt it would since people might not want to risk their funds straight away if they lost the last time).

If bitcoin became illegal, I'd just travel whenever I wanted to sell it. A lot of drugs are illegal and yet they're still everywhere in most developed countries.
If mining became illegal and I was mining then I'd just sell the miner, ship it elsewhere or buy a boat to move them.

Does this change based on the country? In the UK legal tender is strictly "what the courts will accept". You can pay for anything in non legal tender and some legal tender won't be accepted (such as paying for a £5000 car in pennies).


I'd reconsider this statement. If you're in a country where bitcoin is a de jure asset (eg in places like the EU where an asset has to be expressly made illegal to own) then you do have legal rights to possess the asset, trade it and receive the same contractual/legal protections as long as you confirm yourself to their requirements (for example not doing a single transaction of more than €15000 cash without KYC).

I am expecting a drop from here on a TA front (only a few k though) so that might be something to also consider. We're on weekend volume so you might expect some manipulation/retail magnification if news like that hits.

As long as the chain remains secure, I don't think we have much to worry about 1btc=1btc and all that...

It might be good education for newbies that not many people can make money trading.

It's quite a weird guide though because it starts off by trying to say there's one type of trader that exists.
Some retail traders, for example, won't bother or need to bother adding additional funds to their account because their risk management should be good enough. There's the question of the definition of "market making" too, is if just processing other peoples orders or is it adding resistance to resistance zones and support to supports.

There's also the thing that investment bankers might be hedges against each other in large companies like the ones shown in the OP as one following one thing and another following another might mean the company itself is counter trading.

I'm viewing the website op linked on mobile so it might be different for desktop but it looks to already give the right bbcode for inserting the image in a thread here...

The only reason people would be bearish imo is due to impatience or them expecting large corporations will try to "control" bitcoin's price as some have actually potentially managed to do in the past.

There's always going to be a bear, we saw it when bitcoin was around 3k for a long time, there were a lot of bears and the bulls had been bullish for a while (the high profile ones were still likely in profit).

I'm not sure I care too much about the investors that come here just because of the hype, if they're not interested in the technology, they were probably going to lose their money anyway.

Does bpip give the reason for a ban? If so this might not be helpful and you might be better off sending a feature suggestion to vod if the site doesn't link the post that got them banned.

Edited

This might even be just them trying to look like they're doing something to anyone looking in. Unless they're selling electricity at a loss, there's not really an economic reason for doing something like this (there might be a political one to make it look like they're against crypto mining). Constant electricity usage (for example by running mining hardware) is much cheaper to supply than fluctuating usage - that's why some countries make off peak/night and holidays electricity cheaper if they can track it.

If you wanted to put images on your post, you can upload them to a site like imgur and link them here (you could also upload them to your own cloud storage too).

I don't think now is a good time to open any positions. I'd wait for a break upwards put of 38-44k or a break downwards (below 29k decisively down to about 27k or below 29k for a few hours).

If just investing on spot and not using leverage, we'll probably see 31k soon anyway so you could just wait for then to buy or wait for safety (I think we're quite likely to hit 60k since we hit it three times before).

[just what I'm thinking atm no financial advice - dcaing would probably do better anyway than selling drops and buying tops].

You can generally post whatever you want here as long as it doesn't break the rules: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=703657.0

I'd recommend putting stocks related things in the economics section though: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=7.0

Mods are quite active to move stuff if you put it in the wrong place.

But also what's considered doing well here to you? Id say getting here and registering is probably all you need aim for (and writing interesting/useful posts)

What's the error? Are you fully synced (check if there's a progress bar at the bottom)?

If it just didn't sync or connect yet then you can just leave the wallet open.

Is there any chance you could send a screenshot of the initial display with the transaction (you can blurr out any personal details and upload to imgur - right clicking and copying the image location and pasting it here).

So it's like most other things then?

People and companies are more likely to liquidate assets away from elections to try to keep everything stable. People buy when things fall but you don't want to sell then. Volatility in stocks seems to always increase a bit before an election too.

I've seen a lot of charts be posted on social media from this site: https://glassnode.com

I'm not sure what's free and what's paid for but I think they're able to track active current addresses, average holdings (egnumber of addresses holding x amount of btc since the start of the year - I think). I think they also take and store daily snapshots too.

You might want to add the sites it should be compatible with. Eg if it's extracting the data from telegram, this forum, and/or twitter etc.

I'm suspecting:
1. We're in around September time of the last bull run where we went down to about half the ath before going back up.
2. We're just in a bit of a cool off, crypto is being attacked by everyone who want it gone and so far, it's holding quite above the ath of the last bull run.

I mentioned there's a chance we go down from here, I could see 15k being a bottom wick that gets met once for a few seconds and never again. The market does moves in sets of at most 3 so once it did go to 15, it'd shoot up and breakout. I don't see the $70-100k region hard to reach at all by now - I'm generally happy with the idea that once somethings cone somewhere, it'll eventually do it again anyway because below that price it'll attract investors aiming for the returns it gives when it gets back that.

I agree that it's something that might be good to be cut down on with some members here.

The people saying signature campaigns won't be banned, message the managers of the sigs/the antispam sig manager groups and ask them to at least consider it...

I've seen three consecutive similar replies to a thread in the recent past that I don't think have been different enough to warrant the 3 posts.

Normally, when adding additional information you'd still answer with a general answer to the op and then add on to it (I think it's a good help to work out if people know what they're talking about or not).
There's so many ways people can be more constructive too (like by adding Screenshots or additional references). But for the case of some boards, a newbie might go through and try to fix their problem as they're reading the replies. A slight extra detail or something explained slightly different could help in some circumstances - not sure on that one though.
