they have to wait til price is more than $60k before investing, its fomo. i think its also because of ETF are on the market even when SEC has not approve any of them. thats what made them FOMO.

I will be dropping daily technical analysis of the Bitcoin using various timeframes of the Bitcoin charts in other to help fellow merchants of Bitcoin make precise predictions of price and make profit in the process.
I still do not see any good reason you want to do this because this forum can not provide the clearer features you need to provide what you want to provide, the best is to tell people that are in need of TA to make use of exchanges which can make the work easy for them there with candle sticks display.

If I did not get you right, what kind of information you want to provide here that will be helpful? You will need to provide more information about this, but I do not think that will be helpful here if you want to be predicting bitcoin price here.

he wants to share his price.speculation and TA in different timeframes. if users find it helpful, its up to those who read this TA. there is an obsever wall thread where some times people post the technical analisis they come up with.

as seen on movies they keep their money in a safe places. it could be exageratted though.
pablo is somewhat a robinhood who steals from the rich and givss to the poor, he must have more.

HSBC had been very involved about dirty money of these cartels which they launder for them. if any institutions qualified to check whose richer it should be them that will make the list of " 10 worlds richest druglords.".
2263  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you believe BTC can be attacked? on: October 21, 2021, 03:31:37 PM
I just remembered the poly network heist, one of the biggest heist in the history.

Is there also a possibility BTC can be hacked?
If it is, I bet every currency will start to declined.
How safety BTC security for you?

Want to know veterans answers.  Undecided



Poly network was also a decentralized Finance (DeFi) which contains millions of cryptocurrencies and also trusted by crypto users, but the owner of the platform leaves a small vulnerability in its code which enabled the hacker named Mr. White Hat to take $610 million worth of cryptocurrencies.
Bitcoin in the other hand is also a decentralized digital currency that uses a blockchain technology as a fundamental in-order to keep its system secure and safe which makes it harder to hack.
It is only possible to hack and steal bitcoins from the owners who refused or neglect the use of high security wallets.

Therefore, bitcoin's system is invulnerable or impossible to hack.

there is no smart contract on BTC so its almost nothing to be attacked on its code. its possible on the 2nd layer and those rBTC or wBTC which is close to being BTC itself since these are representation of real BTC in their network just like the Poly.

if OP meant any other attacks like Mining or SEC regulations, its happening already and non of it yet had succeed.





2264  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: First Bitcoin Futures ETF Trades Nearly $1 Billion in One Day on: October 20, 2021, 01:58:11 PM
"fund does not invest directly in bitcoin"

..
translation..
its a FIAT ETF that gambles but never holds an asset that it pretends to be involved in its title

a proper bitcoin ETF collateral trust has not yet been approved

funds not directly invested in BTC but it feels good to see them finally legitimizing Bitcoin.
Valkyrie changed their version of futures ETF to "BTFD" which is cooler.

grayscale news was that they are going to turn their gbtc into BTC ETF SPOT,  funds this time wil be added to the cap. hope the others will do the same.
2265  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you pay with crypto??? on: October 20, 2021, 09:45:46 AM
I like Litecoin paying the most (superfast and supercheap) but I am not afraid to pay with Bitcoin.
Have you ever tried crypto payment transactions with ETC and ZIL, I saw both crypto nothing in the vote, apart from cheaper fees both crypto are super fast in the payment process.

If you don't believe me, maybe you can try, I guarantee you'll like it, I've done it hundreds of times in payments with ETC and ZIL.

For now I am more comfortable in paying using the two crypto that I mentioned.

altcoins are rarely accepted. i have not seen any merchants going to accept ETC or ZIL. if an altcoin is going to be accepted, it has to be used by the community, dogecoin is being used in casinos that why there are some businesses that use and accept it. 

there are more merchants accepting ETH than any altcoins but it's got to be BTC that businesses like the most.
2266  Economy / Speculation / Re: Fomo AGAIN? on: October 19, 2021, 10:08:07 PM
Where were you when the price hit 30K for multiple times? This was clear indicator that there was a very strong support on that line and I guess that we have to risk sometimes. The perfect time doesn't exist because you can't predict the future but the perfect risks exists that can bring you a good profit. Life is a risk, every moment is a risk.
I don't give financial advise but this is the good and bed moment at the same time. Personally, I think that since we are near to new ATH, price will continue to rise and we will see another bullrun. Maybe it won't be as intense as old bull runs because price is already very, very high and we won't go from 60K to 2 million (but we went from $600 to 20K back in 2017, though) but maybe we hit 100K and then huge fall may happen like BTC went from 20K to 3K at past, then it will play in certain price frame.

now that its $64K, it already felt like its about to fall. i already sold at 59k and stop myself from buying already. so if its going $100k, i'd really miss the chance if i'd not buy. people who once own BTC probably had bought again but it's the new investors i guess the investors who expect the BTC ETF spot market to be approved.

altcoins holders probably will feel the fomo because altcoins are falling while only BTC surprises them.
2267  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Jamie Dimon asks, “How do we know Bitcoin supply ends in 21 million”? on: October 19, 2021, 01:29:40 PM
I believe if he did the research, to actually know and truly understand the basics, he would praise Bitcoin as a technological breakthrough.
I'm sure he has a pretty good idea about the basics and how bitcoin works. He is just using technobabble to scare the brainless people who hear the word "algorithms" and think something too complicated and impossible to understand. The funny thing is that most of them don't even know what the word algorithm (derived from the name of a great Persian mathematician) means Wink


Then if he’s truly knowlegeable enough about Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, but didn’t mind to look laughable and stupid, then I believe it’s now a true indication of desperation. He discourages/scares his clients, but they wouldn’t listen to him. Cool

he still does that even today that his JPM uses blockchain for their own coin. but this is a fud of course he is addressing this to the people who don't know Bitcoin and most of ghe population today still listens to bankers despite the mess theyve done.

he is the laughing stuff all the time to crypto influencers, Max Keiser mentions Jaime all the time whenever the topic is about banking and jokes.

earning without doing anything is pretty attractive. however not your key not your coins as we know. those platforms knew they couldn't make everyone put their money and trust in them so they use the trusted influencers to make it for them. and more importantly, they promise interest that some investors will not resist. non-traders will like what they offer but they do have options as well in the decentralized platform like the defi platform.
2270  Economy / Economics / Re: Taiwan invasion - how would it affect bitcoin on: October 18, 2021, 09:43:27 PM
Considering semiconductors do get manufactured in Taiwan this much, and how western nations buy probably nearly all of it, I would assume that there is a good chance in any "real" war, as in like guns and airplanes and all that, I would assume that we would probably see a lot more western nations go into this war as well. Kind of like how Korea was split into two, there wasn't a real winner there, nobody actually won, NK ended up ruining the life of so many people with the help of China.

I am afraid that there could be North Taiwan and South Taiwan by the same logic, it could actually make things a lot harder and that’s what scares me the most. Let’s hope that there is no war and let’s hope that China doesn't do something stupid.

This is not stupidity ... Two nuances can "play a game" here:
1. The goals of the party = the goals of the people. And if the party said “everyone should be under“ one wing, ”then it will be so. Otherwise, the party that promised and did not fulfill the promise will not be trusted, and this is unacceptable
2. In the event of an increase in internal tensions in China (and it seems that this is coming, due to an overheated and inflated economy), like any other totalitarian ruler, Xi Jinping, can use the classic move - "a small victorious war." All totalitarian rulers do this. Some people may even blow up houses with their citizens to increase their rating, I hope the Chinese ruler is not like that. But Taiwan can become such a "bargaining chip", the capture of which will reduce tensions, raise the status of the party and its leader to the skies.

it already is a bargaining chip for the westerners. it's only the westerners that claimed Taiwan is a country but they all know it's not. for it to be a country it has to have a consulate of US or any other country but it does not have. Taiwan has been part of China for centuries, it only breaks for some time.

China has a lot to lose when war comes so they may also be afraid of it. But they need Taiwan to have everything their advantage, there is got to be one that will give in. as of now, we can see China is choking the supply chain, this is a different kind of war.
2271  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: At what Bitcoin price do you think altseason will start? on: October 18, 2021, 09:19:36 PM
normally when BTC price goes up, altcoins go up as well. we see more altcoins today are on the bottom for some time but it's still very uncertain when they will bloom once again. popular altcoins had gone up like SOL and DOT but not the rest. if BTC bull market will be over, the rest of the altcoins may also be over, sad to see altcoins we hold for some time have a value and then gone. very unforgiving market.
2272  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: We enter a new era of heavy regulations on: October 17, 2021, 03:12:55 PM
I believe that Bitcoin and general crypto indrustry enter an era of heavy regulations.

Regulations that will do near impossible for the most ppl to buy, trade or even use Bitcoin.

Today EFF have post an article about this matter

https://thedefiant.io/crypto-endangered-confronting-an-existential-threat/

https://twitter.com/EFF/status/1448023101518671873

Bitsamp already do this and ask from the most of their customers to give them every bitcoin or crypto transaction they have done the last years. Where they buy and where they get them.

Maybe this new heavy regulator era will be and a great opportunity for a growth to p2p exchanges.

Unfortunately, crypto is under the scope of Governments and regulation will soon come. Hopefully, it won't be so harsh that it may stifle industry growth and development. In a way, regulation is good as it will give the user a lot more protection but on the other hand, it will turn into absolute control for the government which was basically the opposite of what Bitcoin was created for. Thing is, the wheels are now turning for too long and have become unstoppable. It came to a point that governments see it as a "can't beat them, better join them" situation.

the government is joining we have seen government officials have coins and a government itself like El Salvador is mining BTC. regulations are good, it makes this market getting mainstream already. we shall see more forex and stocks traders coming into crypto instead than stay. but i don't think government can fully control cryptocurrency but they can handle the choke points of it.

No matter what, the crypto will still grow and yes, I agree that p2p exchanges can grow faster than before because the regulators can not do many things to the exchanges. But we do not know what the government will do related to the growth of the crypto in their country. Maybe every government will re-evaluate its regulations about crypto and add something that can benefit them.

I like the sentence "can't beat them, better join them" because if the government still tries to force what they want on their people, they will face big questioning. And if the government can clear the mess, the worst thing they can get is a big demonstration from their people. It seems every government needs to learn from El Salvador as one of the successful countries accepting bitcoin in their country.

since US hasn't really finalized its bill for crypto, other countries will also have nothing else to base their regulations on. regulating a currency that is borderless is extremely hard that's why it's taking time for them how to approach this. China quit for it.

they'd have to have the CBDC first before they can really make it because it's only the fiat that a government can control so if they have the digital currency adopted already, it could be easier.
2273  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Binance not accept my citizenship, Alternative? on: October 17, 2021, 02:36:01 PM
Whats your country name? Can you tell me?

he already said he is Iranian. binance has the right to change their rules though. users are still allowed to trade without kyc as long as they withdraw less than 0.06BTC. it's getting difficult to get BTC today from exchanges even the dex are not very friendly anymore. things have changed already.

i have no idea which centralized exchanges should Iranian trade but there are dex available though. don't Iran have their own local exchange?
2274  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Play online or physical casinos on: October 17, 2021, 02:07:33 PM
The first question bordering my mind right now is where to play, I have learned quite a few things from this gambling board and have decided to try my luck out with gambling and will want to know which one should I start with online gambling or going to physical casino house to play some games.

If you relevantly new to gambling and want to try out your skills then the best thing to do would be try out online gambling for now.
Due to covid restrictions it would be harder for you to find out a casino to gamble. Even if you find one the charges to get started with in a casino will be higher.
On the other hand online gambling will give you ease of convenience to get started with.
You can start with a lower amount comparatively and you will a lot of options to choose from.
So online gambling is the best choice here.

this isn't even the question now because we all know covid is still a problem in society today. there is no going back to the normal days, this pandemic had made us all prisoners in our houses. nothing can be done but work online and entertainment is just going to be online unless you are willing to risk your life outside.

if you are used to the traditional casino then you better be used to online this time. whether you trust online casinos or not, it's just the only option for gamblers.
2275  Economy / Economics / Re: Reality Check on Crypto on: October 17, 2021, 01:22:52 PM
This is really a strong message! Look at the nocoiner standing there, ...

Umm. Is that sarcasm? That's Vitalik, and he's hardly a "no-coiner".

On the other hand, I disagree with his conclusion based on what most users think. I think it overlooks the effects of adoption.
I don't think the OP knows who Vitalik is or what he has contributed to crypto-currency with ethereum and also his partial contributions to Bitcoin, maybe he is looking like a random workshop lecturer.
Although I think that image may not really portray what we think it is, he may be analysing some frequent questions by people, or he is explaining those key points in his own thoughts, regardless I have so much respect for Vitalik and all his contributions.

its his prediction that BTC will never be substantially used but being used now, living proof that governments are considering to use it. but vitalik is right on the first one which ideology of decentralization is not what most of the investors come to crypto. what can we say its the profit that people want. you can never live without money in this world.

speculating price is what its for when it comes to currency and BTC or any other cryptocurrency is currency we speculate.

2276  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Would you quit Bitcoin if a shitcoin like Ethereum surpassed it? on: October 16, 2021, 05:24:01 PM

even if BTC's cap or price is surpassed by ETH or any other shitcoin, i may not be able to quit because, for the last 6 years, i have been in crypto and been trying to trade to make a fortune out of it.

the rise of doge i think had made people come flock on crypto instead.
if a shitcoin like doge has managed to outrank BTC, wouldn't this be an encouragement for those shitcoin holders?   Cheesy
2277  Economy / Economics / Re: What do people think about CBDC? on: October 16, 2021, 04:56:56 PM
Perhaps we should first find out how effective the China cbdc so far since it was launched then you can draw up some ideas what will happen in other countries if cbdc is introduced,
To me it will same as any other government owned project which is heavily centralise and control the people, however,  if people are given the option to choose between cbdc and other crypto, many people won't bother about cbdc.

it's not up for the people to chose but the government. if the government of the country will have their cbdc, the people in this country will use cbdc obviously. you can only wish they allow crypto as well.

china will have the advantage to dominate in the future because they are the first to have a working cbdc but the country is the manufacturer of the world.
2278  Economy / Speculation / Re: How do you explain the October pump? on: October 16, 2021, 04:32:28 PM
Maybe the Golden Cross that we have been talking about for a long period of time happened and this has been its affecs so far. Or there is no special explanation for this pump and it is just about the usual volatility of the market. And this market never needs a reason to pump or go down sharply. It just happens even when we don't expect such thing to happen.
Small signs from here and there in addition to the normal volatility of course.
Some companies announcements, ETF...etc but I think the expected ETF announcement next week? is driving the price up the most.

This is the expect of many good news and yes, that golden cross trigger the uptrend again and its really good to see Bitcoin on $62k again.
A little pullback for now but that's ok, we still have 15 days in October and I'm confident that we can make a new ATH this month. If you don't have Bitcoin yet, its not too late to buy, many good news will still come and that could push more the price of Bitcoin going up.

Bitcoin ETF that he is saying is probably what drives this bull run faster. $BITO will launch this Monday, they don't want to wait for SEC to approve it. but because this is ETF, many will buy this and leave GBTC for this new ETF will not make the prices swing wildly.  although, it's still best to have a real Bitcoin in our wallet.
i'm also positive the October pump is driven by the speculation of the Bitcoin ETF that is coming.

anyone can create a casino like this one with a logo like that was it created by a windows paint program?

Correct, with currently around 600 players

Would you like to explain? How did you get so many players to play on the site?
The actual fact is that the site launched few times ago only? How did you managed to get so many players?
If i want to be honest, then there is no interest of mine to even check the site.
The OP looks pathetic and lacks information.
Too much unprofessionalism is being portrayed here.
Gain some knowledge and fix it asap OP.

with just so new casino, it wouldn't be impossible to have such players if he advertised it well but i didn't see any of its campaign in the forum. its domain registered this month and it's up and running this month as well. if a casino gambler will not look at reputation of a casino and how long it had been up in the business, they sure are going to be scam.
2280  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Bitvest / lightlord on: October 16, 2021, 02:55:30 AM
-snip
any update regarding your issue? lightlord paid his participants yesterday, I'd assume his next step is to fill his casino's hot wallet in order for the gamblers on his casino to be able to withdraw.

and yeah, I agree with Poker Player. it would be best and beneficial for you to include the evidence you have.

sure evidence is very needed when accusing someone. lgihtlord may have faults for delaying but it seems he has no intention of scamming since he paid bounty hunters still.

since lightlord paid his campaign participants the casino withdrawals must have also been paid. OP should really be providing more details and screenshots if possible. ruining casino reputation is very common when the competition is harsh.
