OP is right that the government hasn't taken the right approach to implement bitcoin as a payment method in El Salvador.
Directing users to Chivo wallet is the last thing that the government should have done.
Bitcoin is decentralized and so the government should have not promoted a single wallet.
The reason why many people were against bitcoin may be because most of them lost money in phishing and scams.
They should have made every citizen learn more about bitcoin by conducting events, lectures, workshops etc...
This way many citizens would be able to secure their money from these scams and may be this would have increased bitcoin adoption in El Salvador.

First of all, wanna say hi to everybody. I searching on the internet in the last 2 week 24/4 about crypto currency and how to multiply your money. I read articles about people how can get rich, people who can get brokes and a lot of things about that, and to be honest, if it was possible to become rich after night, all people in the world will do that, so basically in my opinion it is lucky, or tips from billionaires who own some crypto etc. I came there to get some advice from people who really know what crypto it is and how it works. In the last months, I open an Coinbase account, and I saw that, the application pay me like 20 euro ( free coins) for opening an account. It was so nice. After like 1 month, the app do not give any free cryptocurrency. My question for you guys it is, beside Coinbase, it is any other application like that, like give you free stuff or something ? Ps, I think about what you think, a poor guy came there and try to get stuff free, go to work buddy. Ok, it is true, I searching for something free because I have a bad financial status,I was working as an mechanic and I was fire because service closed, and I searching for everything can came. I have 1 baby and I need to put food on the table when I get home  so please, all hate stuff it is not accepted. Thank you for your time guys, and Im waiting your reply. Dan, It's quite hard to live a life like that but I am so sorry to say that if you have such conditions then investing in crypto is not really the way for you my friend. You have to serve the basic needs of your family first and then think about investing. One can only invest when he has some spare money lying around and then use it to make more money. If you don't have any money or have very little of it then investing shouldn't be your priority. Serve the needs of your family and get a stable job first. Try to save some money from it and then may be reconsider investing in crypto. |

Thank you all for you clear and insight on this subject matter I now know for the fact that investing is less risky compared to trading as the cryptocurrency market is always volatile but the fact that I lose in some cases does not make me a total failure in trading and haven't lose in some trades and also gain in some other make me realize that skills is the most essential and an integral aspect of cryptocurrency trading.
Of course you need the trading skills and without that you will probably lose all your money. The fact that you are making money or not doesn't matter when you have just started to trade. You need at least 1-2 years of trading knowledge to get started with trading with serious money. The knowledge of trading in different trends is definitely required to get a good handson on trading before we go all in. |

OP has written so much yet his post means so less. OP just says that he has identified a way to "semi automatically" trade with 70% accuracy.
Also, there are no mentions of how he does it exactly and no proofs of the same. We need at least something to keep an interest in this thread.
Otherwise OP is not gonna get a good response out of this thread.

The moment when we turn on the internet our privacy is getting compromised here and there. There are logs stored for everything on the internet and with just few clicks the expert minds can invade our privacy. It's as simple as that. When we register ourselves on such centralized exchanges everything is getting stored on their servers. This includes our IP address, browser information, OS information, cookies, cache etc... This is when the user hasn't even done the KYC yet. So much of useful information already. It can be used to easily manipulate and gain control at some level in our devices. We can't even imagine what they can do when they have all our info from KYC we do. Nobody can be trusted on the internet and this includes centralized exchanges like Binance too. So I wouldn't be shocked if they sell our data to Russia or some random 3rd party. We have to deal with it. |

Did it happen to you? No, it has never happened to me that I sent my BTC to a wrong address. I check thrice before sending my precious coins to other addresses. How comfortable are you every time you transfer to a remote address? I am pretty much comfortable with the traditional way of transferring coins to an address. Would you be more comfortable using a helper? I wouldn't like to compromise my addresses just because I am lazy and careless to check the addresses before sending coins to it. What do you use today to mitigate this risk? I use a standard non-custodial wallet and paste the address into it and then send coins to that address. I wonder why people make such silly mistakes of sending coins to wrong address. Either people are lazy or dumb enough to check the addresses they send their coins to. |

I was spending some time with my friends parents and there was not only a huge party but all of them placed p2p bets on the horse racing. They asked me to come over as well, the ending was deeply sad and essential to cover : The horse died after winning of a heart attack. The horse was presenting signs of heart attack on the camera but no one was actually even giving it a second thought and at the end when it was the last lap, all the horses got whipped excessively hard as well. That gets me to my point "why do you support horse racing?" This is honestly far to cruel to continue. According the this site: https://www.horsedeathwatch.com/background.php they have seen more than 2000 deaths in around 5500 days. Most of the horses die during the match as well, they also have instances where they are exploited using drugs (doping). Are you aware that most of the horses go through slaughter as well? Some of them have very bad injuries making them not even the least bit useful for the business therefore they are killed without second thought. I do hope people would get more aware and try and steer away from *horse racing*. I know that's sad but at the same time it's happening from so many years already. Even though so many animals die because of such cruelty on them they still conduct these events/bettings/fetivals etc... It's hard to accept the fact that humans have this mindset right from the beginning to care less about animals. But still there are people who are kind enough to help the poor animals and save them from such cruel actions on them. To answer your question I think that horse racing should be regulated so that fewer animals die because of it. |

You have a good approach to gambling. I also mostly play slots but sometimes try my luck in games that require skills such as poker but no matter how hard I try I almost always leave the table without my money. I have learned not to get upset about it because I understand that against me can play as bots and professional players. I treat the money I deposit as a ticket for admission to the game. And that is how it should be at first place because the moment when a gambler tries to recover the losses it's their end game. He will keep chasing the losses and will eventually lose all his money. This happens with the most of us. Ofcourse there are times when some gamblers do win and take some money home but at the end of the day we keep losing it. |

At least they know that there must be two possibilities behind the risk, namely success or failure. If they succeed, that is a good result for them, but if they fail, they need to think of other ways that might succeed. But most casino sites that promote on this forum have managed to get a lot of new members but they also use other promotional media such as social media. So the results they get can be greater. That is true. Many gambling sites use this forum as a way of advertising their site and get many number of users registered on the site. Most of the users look for special bonus and promotional offers as it attracts them a lot and hence gambling sites use it as a leverage. Also, many gambling sites have their own threads where users keep discussing about the site and other users use these reviews to register on the site as well. There are also campaigns and competitions being conducted on this forum which attracts many users. There are basically many ways in which a gambling site can use this forum to advertise their casinos. |

Trading look like a hard to understand game and for any new person in trading making profits is always hard that is why am here to ask how can a newbie make profit trading coins and what manual can be followed.
Common sense - Every professional trader was once a newbie in trading. So it automatically answers your question that yes a newbie can make enough money in trading provided he is doing the right things. It takes time and patience to make money and you must put in a lot of efforts to learn how to trade. Utilise your time properly and learn a lot about trading and practice it a lot. Only practice will groom your skills and eliminate your mistakes in the long run. |

One might already understand that winning at Gambling is hard but at the end of the day we still see a lot of people increasingly interested in Gambling, this might provide an insight into the casino business and at the same time help explore the ideas 💡 in the mind of a Gambler. One might be aware of the fact that even though the Gambler knows that he is loosing money they measure the gambling to be an effective usage of that money, a leisure activity to begin with therefore it's more concerned with the activity-than winning an idea that some problem gamblers ignore. Source : here In roulette type games more than 95% of the amount is usually back to the player but when we talk about lotteries it goes way below 50% which is explained by the lower levels of winners and winning as a whole despite that lottery is some of the biggest revenue collector for the government. The players usually focuses not on winning big, but most of the time the short increase of dopamine makes their money worth it ( ofc if used in moderation) What do you think is the best game/ sports to gamble on ? Do you do it for winning? Are the ideas in the article according to you correct? How many times you usually win in a game of chance+skills? I never bothered to play skill based games like poker etc... because I like the luck based games more. I personally gamble just for fun while I know that the amount I am using to gamble with is eventually going to be lost in all the games I play. But at the same time I make sure I am limiting my losses by assigning a fixed budget to gamble with and to play more games I keep the bet amount really small. It doesn't make a difference for me because at the end it gives me same adrenaline rush for the small bets. |

Speaking of all the fun things with FUN, seems like I just reached the 180day locking period as my WoF spins just increased by 1 (hooray!).
That's good news for me on 2 levels. Obviously, getting an additional free spin for the next 180 days is awesome (and the cashback and the interest). Secondly, I'm halfway through a one year lock, and can look forward to 25% more FUN back in there. Good times.
Congrats with the achievement, also reached the same milestone a bit ago! Especially the extra interest makes it interesting. Currently I am getting 93 satoshis/day extra because of my premium membership and it all adds up nicely! Thats amazing. Even I am past half of the way with just 5 months left for the maturity of my 360 days lock in period. Along with that, my WoF spin is going to increase by 1 in the next 4 days. I'll be getting 4 WoF spins every day after that. So in a month I can accumulate around 120 WoF spins which is not much but still worth a shot to receive some nice rewards out of it. |

Any updates about your gambling site, have you already found someone that would help you to advertise your gambling site? Also having promotions in the website and in here in the forum for Bitcointalk players is also a good idea, I think you can only get response from players and not for casino owners. They won't tell their strategy in advertisement to their possible competitor.
ya.ya.yo!
It seems that he left us. Probably the OP got all information he need and went for the work - he answered 2 times only. Or he is just read us without comments, but i don`t think so. He kept silence for 3 years before this thread, so we can see the welcome thread 3 years later  Anyway he got all information here, what he wants to do - knows just the OP. May be OP is not so active on this forum because it's been a week since he posted this thread. 3 years is a long time and OP hasn't been active on this forum since last 3 years. I wonder how he remembered the password to his account. |

Just marking some interesting balance on freebitcoin. So far just loving the experience. It's not about how much balance it is, but it was just all the way 3 so thought to post it out. Moreover, with this number my account is not enrolled into BTC interest. If your balance is above 30K satoshi then you are eligible for the same. Not bad for keeping some balance earning few satoshi's daily.  Moreover, another target is very very close. I am just 9k away from having 100K RP's. Never thought will reach to that personal stats.  I think I am more than happy with this stats. I think Premium membership has lot of influence on this one. It feels good to get sats for free doesn't it. Even I have something to show. Although it's not much but hey it's for free. It will definitely be worth something if we keep accumulating it over time.   |

Many people join bitcoin talk and few leave everyday. So it's not really feasible to keep track of the count of coders on bitcointalk.
But you can surely keep a track of the coders who are contributing to bitcoin core from the github repo.
Also, not every coder on bitcointalk is a contributor to bitcoin core. There are many other coders as well who do other things.

I am not sure if this is a good news of a bad news. Can someone throw some light.
1. Government is mining bitcoin which means if they do it on huge level then they get to manipulate the Bitcoin network
2. Government is mining bitcoin which means they are encouraging to mine bitcoin and will increase decentralization when many people start to follow them

That was a nice video showing how confident CW is while claiming that he is Satoshi. I am quite surprised that CW is so bold when telling that he created bitcoin and he didn't utter even once when claiming that. May be he has practiced enough for that now.  |

Hi, Bitcointalk community,
One of the crypto casinos is organizing a prize draw, with the one/top prize worth 52,000. Rules are pretty simple: For every 100 EUR wagered, the player gets one raffle ticket. Of course, the more tickets collected, the better your chances of winning the top prize. Its a classic lottery-style draw, motivating the players to wager high to collect more tickets for a better chance of winning this event.
The problem is that neither its a live event nor a provably fair event. Therefore, some of the players might question its fairness.
In your opinion, what would be the best solution to integrate a quickly provably fair option?
The simplest solution would be to take a random digit from the hash of a particular coin whose block is yet to be mined. For example, they can announce that the last digit of the hash of bitcoin block number #xxxxx would be the winner or something similar. We can't really calculate the hash of a particular block in future and so it would be easy to choose a winner this way. |

You are just saying this because of the massive gains of bitcoin throughout these years. If it weren't so then many people would not be asking this question.
Also, even if you would have bought BTC back then there's no guarantee that you would have hold on to it until now.
Another thing is that even if you buy BTC now you can hold it for years and still gain the massive profits if you believe in it.
You are having this concern because you doubt that BTC won't go too high in price.
If you are doubting it now then you could have easily doubted it back then also and hence you might not have bought so many coins even if you were in the party back then.
