As an atheist myself, I'm against marriage, I find the whole ordeal pointless, from all perspectives. First of all, it's a giant waste of money, but first and foremost, it's against my beliefs. If you're together with someone and love eachother, it should be enough, I don't find it a punishment, however, it complicates things in case of a divorce.

I think, almost all BSC wallets that have made transactions have these coins. these coins look very valuable and make us inclined to sell these coins in their intended market. however, this is the type of scam that exists today. should be, we do not need to care about it is in our wallet. honestly I want to make it not in my wallet by sending it to another wallet. however, I chose to do nothing with the coins. there are very many types of such coins or tokens in my wallet at the moment.
Honestly, I never came to it across in the past, before it happened to me. This whole DeFi sector is filled with scams and phising attempts, I was used to such attempts throughout my journey in crypto, however, I feel like they are everywhere nowadays. Discord is filled with bots and scammers, while you need to be extra careful when importing tokens on Decentralized Exchanges (such as Pancake), and especially when dealing with wallets such as TrustWallet or Metamask. |

Of course and there's a plan to vaccinate the whole population, however, I don't see it happening anytime soon. Most vaccines were distributed in developed countries, mostly in Europe, USA and Asia, completely forgetting about other nations in Africa, or in poorer parts of Asia. This practice is now backfiring, with the new Omicron variant, which is a result of little to no vaccinations in the African continent. Let's note here that Botswana has an average percentage of 20% fully vaccinated citizens, while the entire continent's vaccination coverage is depressing.

Thank you for all the replies, I was surprised that I received them at first, because I've never participated anywhere or published this address on any website or platform, didn't know they could actually find addresses otherwise, but guess what, they can.
They looked fishy, I've never participated anywhere, there's no chance someone is giving me free money. First thing I did was to search them up on BscScan, which showed no results, ringing bells inside my head that all of them is a mere scam attempt, I'll just ignore them from now on and try to stick with Yieldwatch, which actually filters these scam tokens.

That's surprising, I'm not sure where my address got leaked, I don't recall anything suspicious to be honest, nor do I participate in bounty campaigns/airdrops.
Figured it was something fishy though, I hadn't signed up for anything, it's probably a trick for those who are active in the bounty scene, trying to confuse their fake tokens, I just don't get why Growing.fi is showing them, shouldn't they provide some kind of filtering for such tokens?

I'm usually using Yieldwatch to keep track of my yield results, however, its uptime was average the past few days and resorted to Growing.fi. I noticed that my Net Worth was strange looking, showing more than $500,000 worth of coins, which startled me. Upon further investigation, my wallet appears full of some sketchy looking tokens. Their website prompts you to connect your wallet, but I'd rather not to, how did these appear? Why are in my wallet, and why is Growing.fi showing them and Yieldwatch isn't?  map jpg generator |

Never faced it with banking services, not sure where you're from, though. However, it has happened to me twice, on PayPal. I was asked to justify earnings from doing a variety of tasks, or even selling stuff from eBay. Got my account locked for quite a while, till I provided them with any necessary documents, while having to phone them twice, in the USA.
The best thing about cryptocurrencies is that I don't have to account for anything, I've got my wallets, hidden from public view of the usual services, which I'm using to save money.

Since when it's been dumping the last few months? It's been bearish for just a couple of weeks now, which is expected, it can't always rise. Let me remind you that the new all-time high of $69.000 was reached exactly a month ago (10/11/2021). There's nothing to worry about, I don't get why everyone is freaking out and complaining about the market's state.
I think everyone is freaking out and panicking because they are always expecting for bitcoin to reach new peaks every december, but this year may be quite different. We will no longer witness bitcoin with its all new all time high if the correction will continue the whole month. But knowing every after correction, a new support level will be reach so it will make the crypto market more interesting. If you zoom it out, we are not yet totally in bearish season so we still have chances left to see bitcoin recovers and starts to set for its new peak. I get your point, last December and the market was bullish reaching new peaks, however, we still have 20 days for the year to end. I don't really bother to be honest, a new all time high was achieved exactly a month ago, while I get people's frustration with FUD, Covid and whales selling, I doubt that there's much to worry about. |

What evidence? Someone saying it was natural? China hasn't given out any evidence about its origins at all, and they didn't allow WHO to investigate for the obvious reason that it probably was not natural. It's been confirmed that bat coronavirus research was conducted at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, and so what counter evidence would at all suggest that it was released from the wet market? Have they identified a patient zero? Have they even identified the exact wet market? Where is this growing body of evidence?
Apologies, I should explain. When text appears blue, this means it links out to somewhere else. In this case, to a report of the latest study. If you want another link, this time with pictures, then a similar article in the LA Times (that's a link) may be useful.  As I say though, nothing is proven yet... and maybe we will never have definitive proof either way. But I am interested in your reaction to my post. You seem quite emotionally invested in the 'lab leak' origin, despite the dearth of evidence. What is it that makes you so sure that this is the explanation? Can't we just look at the evidence before arriving at a decision? Personally I believe that a natural origin is more plausible, but I'm certainly not saying it can't have been a lab leak. While I don't doubt that the origin of the virus was natural, I've yet to read any update about whether it came from a laboratory or not, I'm not up-to-date with the latest news to be honest. I conducted research for my thesis a few months ago, and have stopped bothering too much honestly, I'd post it here, but it contains my personal information. On the other hand, I believe that it was natural, and was expected that it would eventually happen, overpopulation, poor hygiene and living conditions in 3rd world countries is a recipe for disaster. |

Why not altcoins?
Many people think that since bitcoin is so expensive, they are better off buying and investing in altcoins. It may seem to be a profitable decision in the short term but in long term, they should have an investment in the bitcoin. For me, 99% of the altcoins are developed by the greedy investors to earn the money. That's not the case, I wouldn't blame someone for investing in Litecoin or Ethereum, both are reputable and legit coins. It's not about being expensive, you could still buy a fraction of BTC, 0.10 for instance, is a decent amount nowadays. On the other hand, dips don't scare me, nor cause any kind of panic. I'm holding for quite a long time now, while I'm also staking in the meantime, I'm looking for long-term opportunities. |

A very confusing answer to be sure... User1: "It's bad for the environment to destroy perfectly functional drives, you should zero it and reuse it" User2: "I agree, I smashed my harddrive with a hammer" Ummm what??!?  Still, the amount of time required to properly zerofill a drive can be quite massive... especially when you're talking Terabyte+ sized drives!  whereas... 5 minutes and a hammer?  a strong enough magnet should do the trick. in seconds. The reason I use a hammer is because If I can hear the disks rattling inside, I know the job is done and that the data cant be recovered. If I were to hammer them, I'd just keep them aside. Not keen on generating electrical/hardware waste. You could potentially use them as a backup, or an external HDD, I don't see the reason to smash them. |

Mining it is an option, which isn't really feasible depending on your environment and resources but it's one of the ways you can earn it.
Trading is another option but it takes intellectualism to get this done in a very good manner and earn profits to purchase bitcoin
Rendering your services also and getting paid in bitcoin is another option to consider
Mining isn't an option, you'll need specific miners in order to mine, using your own computer won't just do it. On top of that, you'll need to do a cost to benefit analysis, due to high electricity costs. Back in the day there was a faucet where you could solve a captcha and earn up to 5 Bitcoins per day. Wish those days still existed lol
While I remember the early days of Bitcoin (2013-2014), you could potentially earn a decent amount of BTC, I believe that the amount you're claiming is an exaggeration. Faucets were my first experience with Bitcoin and accumulated a decent amount for today's standards. |

Now that you're mentioning, I can't actually recall changing the password last time I logged in, I'm pretty sure I did a stupid, and actually forgot to change the password. However, I'm still going to proceed closing the account, since it's already associated with a compromised email address. Thank you. @Ultegra134, recently there was one thread in which someone described exactly this method, and it is about hackers coming into possession of your login data, and all they need is 2FA code. In an attempt to deceive the user they do the following : How do they do that? They send you a phishing text messages stating your account may have been compromised, and request that you text-reply the authorization code you are about to receive to confirm your identity. The bad guys then attempt a login to the target website using your username/password. That login triggers a text message to you containing the authentication code.
The bad guys now send another phishing text to your phone requesting that authentication code sent by the website. If you fall for this phishing attempt and text the authentication code back to the bad guys, they immediately enter that code, finalize the login for that target website and immediately change the password/security/phone numbers associated with that account. You are now locked out of your account and they have it for their use! In addition to changing the e-mail and password on that exchange, you can also try to block the number from which these messages come from or turn off 2FA on the exchange. That's not exactly the case, this is actually an text from Coinbase, provided that I don't want to use Coinbase, I could potentially be okay by blocking the number. |

Okay, this is getting rather annoying, second text I receive within a week, at approximately 6 am in the morning. Because I'm definitely bound to receive more of these texts, is there an actual way to permanently delete my account on Coinbase?  |

I'm also tax evading by holding a decent amount of cryptocurrency, which I'm not planning to declare anytime soon.
Lol is hodling some amount of coin regarded as tax evading Or I don't know that to be so. I feel when you sell off your hodling and keep it secret from tax authority then that can be a crime of evading depending on if the country is collecting tax on cryptocurrency but if hodling is also part of evading is still new part of it. Holding itself isn't tax evasion, however, if I were to withdraw such amount of money, I'd have to declare where and how I obtained them. In the best case scenario, I'd have to pay approximately 20% in taxes, which I'd rather not. At least here, there isn't a solid taxation policy, however, any kind of deposit from a foreign exchange would trigger alarm bells. |

I own different crypto and mostly I stake with them because I am interested in the long return. With bitcoin I am actually doing nothing.
If you are primarily interested in the long return, then hodling bitcoin is your best bet and would potentially bring you more profit than staking assets which are built on the PoS model. Not to shot on proof of stake, but one of the main reasons bitcoin actually increases in value is due to the controlled and reducing supply and how no one holds more stake on the network. Can you suggest any strategies to make even a little APR? I know that I can't stake with bitcoin.
There are third party services that you can technically stake your bitcoins with, but as a common rule; Not your keys,Not your coins. While I get your point of view, there are times like this that I regret not being active in trading. For instance, I could have sold my BTC at ATH, a few weeks ago, and now I could have obtained a significant amount of BTC, by purchasing, using the exact same amount of money. It's called short-trading, while at the same time, I would continue holding. On the other hand, there are quite a few things that can go wrong, such as an unexpected price change and so on, however, now I'd definitely have more Bitcoin. How much Bitcoin do you have? Oh ya, same as me. Not enough haha  . While true you can increase your stack through a short trade, I wouldn't risk more than 10-20% my total position on this type of play. All it takes is one wrong market move and you have a lifetime of COPE and/or buying back higher. Too little to be enough, honestly. However, it has all been acquired from scratch, without putting down any money. It was mostly through signature campaigns and some kind of microtasks I had completed, thus, my only investment is my work/time. I'm not holding a large amount of Bitcoin, it's roughly $1.500, the opportunity and possibilities of short-trade are endless, I honestly regret being away from the trading scene. The reason I'm away for a long time now is due to the feeling of it being a burden, it drives me anxious and stresses me out, that's why I've opted for holding, without bothering too much about the market condition. |

I think it's great that you're providing an opportunity that most won't ever come across, despite those "inferior protocols" you're mentioning. Despite not all students owning mobile devices, or having technological barriers, you'll be showing them something that the majority of teachers won't, you're thinking out of the box, presenting them with knowledge that's hard to come across.
I take my hat off to you, you're doing great, continue being innovative and supporting of your students.

I don't exactly get the point of this thread, tax evasion is a daily thing of fiat currencies too, I don't object that Bitcoin may also add one more mean of evading taxation. However, let's be real now, cryptocurrencies aren't the cause of tax evasion, it existed long before Bitcoin was created, everything else is just pure nonsense.
Don't get me wrong, I fully get your point, I'm also tax evading by holding a decent amount of cryptocurrency, which I'm not planning to declare anytime soon.
