2341  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When You Heard About Bitcoin For the First Time? on: October 12, 2022, 08:16:59 PM
This was during the first big rise in bitcoin. I heard on the news how one guy paid for pizza with a currency that does not exist, and now they are worth crazy money.
Majority of people would surely be hooked up into those years where bitcoin did reach all time high of $19k+ where everything is really been hyped as i remember.
I do hear off about bitcoin earlier than that which i do able to know about its existence because of those investment schemes wayback and later on i did made myself to learn further more on what
is crypto is all about.

Lots of golden opportunities on missing out on making huge money but well lets just move on and continue.Important thing here is that you do know on what you should
gonna do on the current condition.
2342  Economy / Speculation / Re: Purchased at $23,500, when should I start to panic? When should I average down? on: October 11, 2022, 11:49:47 PM
I think I made a mistake buying at $23,500 (obviously), so when should I really start to panic now that we dropped to $18K?
Market conditions have improved several times since the price dropped $18K. The increase is not very high, only a price change of $2k, or with a price increase of $20k, then you can already make a profit. But if you just leave Bitcoin in your wallet, of course to get back $23k, it will have to wait a long time. Because the current market conditions are bearish.
If you could play with the price movement or volatility then you could actually make profits and able to compensate or patch up with those loses which it wouldnt really be needed for you to wait up for a

very long time before you could really break even with your purchase price but if you cant bare up with the risk or not able to play with those volatility then you could really still have option on not to

do something or anything but just simply wait for the recovery.Selling on loss is never been worth, we know that it wont be that simple whenever we do see our portfolio
is going down but you should really make yourself have good control of your emotions.
2343  Economy / Gambling / Re: Twitch is going to ban most crypto gambling streamers. Where will Drake go now? on: October 11, 2022, 09:52:21 PM
Let's just assume that Drake is finally banned from Twitch, he still has options to use for live streaming as he does on Twitch, Youtube, and Facebook are still there, these two platforms as far as I know are also used by other influencers on streaming gambling platforms.

There are many users of this platform that I mentioned.
So I don't think Drake will be affected much in that regard, it's just that his record on twitch is not good anymore, right?
This doesnt talk about getting banned or something but totally Twitch is really banning out gambling streams specially into those offshore licenses outside US and since Drake is
commonly seen on this platform then other streamers would really be affected as well but its true that it wont really be that much of an issue
considering that we do have other platforms which these streamers would be flocking in.

It would be never a problem since there are currently existing platforms which can do the job.It is on Twitch loss if they would really be implying these rules.
2344  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Mentor experience in crypto trading. on: October 11, 2022, 08:56:59 PM
You can achieve anything in life by yourself, but you definitely need someone's advice.It is very difficult to navigate life without advice. I also have mentors in my life but I have never and will never forget him.Till now I remember and respect.I have learned a lot from my mentor in life all in all I am successful now.Never disrespect any of your mentors or elders and respect them throughout your life.
Yes, input or advice from other people is also important because sometimes things like that can change our lives,
so it's true what you say don't ever underestimate it,
just think of crypto trading as life which is dynamic so it is important to have a mentor too
Its not really that necessary if you do find out that you dont need one since you do know on yourself that you would really learn up trading on your own.If there are people who could really able to stand

on their own towards their learning phase then just let them be.If there are people who do really love to have that kind of assistance from a mentor then let them be.Its a matter of personal choice and decision when it comes to things that you are going to need.

If you do have the money to be spent on subscription then its your choice but honestly, things you could definitely acquire just for free.
2345  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto Crash Incoming? on: October 10, 2022, 11:53:08 PM
Want experience advice about bitcoin
It will be following what will be doing by the stock market. In this case, stock market has been experiencing the bad thing just like it was plunged even deeper. bitcoin will be doing the same thing like that. Im expecting bitcoin to go even lower than 19k which is a very bad thing for us right now. People may feel another panic attack again once bitcoin goes dump again. It's just the matter of time.
There's no such thing about correlation because it would really be just normal that if there are some economic uncertainties or huge negative events then it would really be giving out that domino effect.

Lots been saying that crypto market isnt correlated nor being connected with traditional markets that we do have currently but cant really be avoided on having the same perceptions and emotions been

created around specially into those investors.Once this one had been influenced then expect that crypto market would definitely be experiencing the same condition.
It might not be precised to look into but most likely this is the case.
2346  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Squid coin - how did it impact you? on: October 10, 2022, 10:48:29 PM
I'm writing my Extended Essay at school about Squid Coin's collapse and what it says about the cryptocurrency market. I am looking for people who had Squid coin to complete a really short survey (max 2 mins to complete 10 multiple questions). Would you please be able to help? The survey can be found here: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/FBHH8PH

Thank you so much!
Benjamin

When it comes to this, speaking about crashes and dumps then it would be
pertaining about 3 possible reasons.

1. Hype is over
2. Dev gone scam
3. Market condition or bearish

I dont own Squid coin which is obviously been hyped due to that movie squid game.
Once hype is over then expect that this certain coins value would be going
to the floor.
2347  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bangladesh has blocked 331 online casinos on: October 10, 2022, 09:30:53 PM
Recently, BTRC (Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission) has blocked 331 online casino sites in the name of preventing gambling and money laundering. There were a few sites blocked from long ago including crypto casino stake.com though we could access the mirror version of stake through stake.games
Hate to see this to be honest when we have politicians who are almost openly laundering money.

Source- https://www.prothomalo.com/bangladesh/crime/p10pt1dnef
We do know that each country does have that own regulation being run into, to those who do govern are the ones who do make out these kind of bans and prohibitions and making that money laundering

as a common issue or reason for this one but if we do dig deep through then they are the ones who do tend up on doing those laundering but this is just for some(not all).

We know as a gambler, they can ban all the sites that they do want but as long VPN does exist, we could still able to play anytime.
Just make yourself dont get caught because you do know the consequences if you do make yourself get caught on something or do talks about violation.
2348  Economy / Economics / Re: Social media, now looking more for business than for socializing. on: October 09, 2022, 08:37:02 PM
Do you think social media is now becoming more a place for business than socializing, Could it be as a result of digitalization and things moving online or more people now starting business online because of need to somehow generate income or another source of income for self to survive the economic situations which is becoming tougher?


Since people began moving their businesses online during COVID-19 and transitioning from marketing to making purchases, considering social media to be a place of the market where you can get anything you want clothes on uploaded WhatsApp statuses and business Whatsapp have features for uploading your product for people to view easily so social media is changing I just feel is a new season, not to mention Twitter which I think is one of the biggest platforms were adverts are made in a short note the world is changing and peoples business are going online in a short while the existence of cash will be no more in generations to come, from cowries to coin to paper money and next the initiative of bitcoin is already replacing so many things in the monetary aspect.
If you cant find things that you are looking for into those common e-commerce site then you would really be finding on FB marketplace or social media which you could really make some search.Some people

do the reverse thing where if they cant find out on socmed then they would go into those e-commerce site,whichever comes first depending or according into your needs.

Considering that social media has the biggest traffic then it would be sensible for you as a business owner on making out some marketing into your products.It would be displayed into the millions
of people around the globe which any business would really be liking on doing that.
2349  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin 13 years ago... on: October 09, 2022, 07:55:36 PM
It is possible to be in Bitcoin since 2009 and still not own a good amount of Bitcoin by now, it all depends on the mindset and the motivation that drives our interest in any investment or commodity. Those that took advantage of the technology back then were able to use small capital to stock pill large Bitcoin just imagine investing $100 into bitcoin the day it was launched one will be the biggest whale by now if he didn't sell the Bitcoin holdings.
On another hand we must not ask some kind of questions as that will only great FOMO in the market, since we can not move back the hand of time, we must focus on holding more bitcoin at every given opportunity.

LUCKY ARE THE EARLY BITCOINNAIRS!
You cant really tell that all of them did really make huge money even lets say that they are the early adopters or engagers when Bitcoin is just starting.Come to mind off that if they we're active then you

dont know if these people had able to sold out when bitcoins price did hit up a few dollars or even a hundred.No one really had anticipated that it would really be become valuable on the future.

which it do reaches its price as high of 69k and possible that it would even be more on future years to come.For those who do able to remember those coins into those early days or years
then they are the ones would be called as whales but pretty sure that there are lots who had sold off and lost their coins.
2350  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why 95% online Gambling websites are Scam? on: October 08, 2022, 10:59:15 PM
-snip

First of all, don't treat gambling as a way to earn money. Just because you didn't get what you want, you will call a gambling platform a scam. It may be hard to accept but it was your greediness that make you lose 3 ether. Gambling casinos have what we call house edge where they always have the advantage over their player.
Whenever your expectations hadnt meet or wasnt able to happen then you would definitely pointing up fingers for you on whose gonna be blamed out and since you are playing gambling on a certain platform then you would definitely saying its a scam or non fair.You should really change that kind of mindset.
Gambling games is never been meant to be acting as a source of income.Its for leisure but people do really go into other extent where they do really believe that they could really make money
through it or on constant manner.
You should really make yourself realize while its still early rather than realize things when you had already fucked up and lost big time on gambling.You should
avoid that as much as you could.
2351  Economy / Speculation / Re: Best time for me to buy on: October 08, 2022, 10:09:04 PM
If we have a plan to be an instant rich person, the best and fastest thing we can do is buy bitcoin, if you have assets such as property, gold or others then I suggest selling and using to buy bitcoin, I have friends who sell houses worth $ 100K to buy bitcoin a few days ago, he has a vision for a long -term hold.
Indeed, investing in bitcoin can make someone rich as long as you have basic knowledge of investing, finance, and fundamental analysis techniques. But to become a rich person after holding bitcoin in the long term is a difficult thing to do if you can't manage emotions. Therefore, investing in bitcoin or altcoins is highly expected not to panic so that the profit target you want to get can be achieved.
Not anymore because if you do look upon into its price then it would be giving at least 2x-5x into its price and being rich is something that would really be depending on how much you had invested.

Not like into those days where the price is still cheap where you could really make yourself that able to make profits for how many folds but not on these years.

Im not really that bitter on possible profit you could really make on Bitcoin and this is why people do really make out some option on touching up altcoins
or even those low caps.
2352  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Long term investing - Spot, Margin or Derivatives? on: October 07, 2022, 11:45:47 PM
Spot is the most productive side for the long long term investment as Low risk and also highly recommend for maximum profits. I know that Future trade is more attractive in term of the profits but as there is high risk for the investment according to the market sentiments in long term there is no place for the Future trade. Spot is a best option where surety of profits can be managed.

I highly agree I have lost a lot of money on future trading, and I would say that spot trading is recommended since you can only get an impermanent loss while you can gain profit over time if the market goes up again.

And spot trading can only be the same as futures trading if you trade with bigger funds or volume.
Futures and spot could really be never the same.You are simply contradicting on what you are saying.Speaking about impermanent loss then thats the beauty when you do spot.
When you are just still a noob then it would be that sensible and understandable that you shouldnt really touch up things which does require sufficient skills and experience
in the market.Dont make yourself in a hurry so that you wouldnt be ending up lots of mistakes.

You'll find out soon whenever you do able to experience futures/leverage or derivatives.

Different country have a different rules and regulation in terms of gambling even though they have this still it is an ideal to follow those rules but if you head forward for the gambling place this is the Gambling City of Las Vegas There are a lot.of top people and names came here just to seek a joy and excitement to them.

Actually this is one of my dream place in my bucket list.
Are the T/C's really different in other countries? Even in the same casino? I don't think so; how's that even possible?
Yunno,the means of operation must TALLY so as to be able to manage or stop loss. Every casino has a standard; whereupon this standards ain't following, then apparently, the opposite of the purpose of Creation is what they'll have.
Well, Les Vegas is a nice place for stable bettors and fun gamblers (yes, alot of people gamble fot the fun). The cost of living is high and anyone planning to visit VEGAS on residual purpose just for gambling, then I guess they should have got some heavy side income.
We just accept the fact that on every place, there's always the difference in talks about laws and regulation.For people or individuals then it would really be just a norm that we do have different state or
condition when it comes to finances or on things that we've been dealing.
Gambling is a huge industry and we know that Vegas is been known and popular but of course, lots had been wishing to go into that place but expect that the level or cost of living
and spending there would really be entirely too far off if you do came from developing countries.
2354  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: This move saved millions of dollars but there is a catch on: October 07, 2022, 09:13:27 PM
A Huge respect for CZ of Binance exchange, I never knew that a blockchain project can be frozen that fast to stop the hackers who tried to steal 2M BNB worth 570M, by the way isn't that centralised and more vulnerable to government bans?

Bitcoin won my vote for life as it can never be paused this effortlessly and hastily. At the same time CZ saves the day, again. Around of applause 👏 for this smart leader.

Actually this shows the high degree of centralization in the BSC network.
While this time CZ used this for good, you never know when this would be used for bad things or just simply against you.

So the only "hats off" would be in order because CZ has revealed the true nature of BSC (for those still doubting it) in order to stop hackers.
CZ would rather do the appropriate action rather than letting things to get messed. If he do let those hack to happen then it would really just create a huge lost of trust into the community considering
or talking about security aspects which is really a huge deal for everyone.

He would rather exploit out on those possibilities that it could really be stopped on his own will and decision.Yes, this might changed up others impressions but not as bad when you do compare
if he had just let that hack incident happen.

Therefore, people do still have the choice on whats their stance towards BSC network.

I know guys it's silly question but I was wondering that wether how people got in to bot oinnand other cryptocurrency.
My case is that in 2017 I heard in news that Bitcoin that is a digital cryptocurrency Crossed real gold for the First time. At that time it's price was above 1000 dollars. And that git me interested and I want to know more about crypto and now I am here and I making post 😁
I heard of about Bitcoin because of those ponzi and hyips around on social media..Thats the first time hearing about bitcoin and my first impression that it is really some sort of easy money
that you could really get from but thats not how reality works.
I do have regrets on spending and wasting off lots of bitcoins back into those early years when i do first know it.I do spend and invest just like there's tomorrow and all of them
was just wasted because it turned out to be a scam.
Well, lets just move on and proceed on what are the current things that we've been dealing with.

This is what I hate about unsuccessful gambling: when you lose not only your money, but a lot of your time too. Hope this won't happen to you again.

This is a very controversial issue. I also often thought about this, for example: in half a year I won X money on betting. If you distribute it over time and take into account how much time I spent watching the games and thinking about what bet to make, this is a completely unprofitable activity. On the other hand, I spent mostly my free time on this + in return I got emotions and joy from when the results were successful. It's very hard to calculate the "balance" of what you've spent and what you've earned when you look back.

It could be noticed that gambling itself has the good side of it than the bad but it has to be a decision each gamblers should take or choose to follow, the part to having maximum satisfaction in gambling does not onky fomes in when you are making win, it comes when you're been fulfilled that your emotions were set on happy mode by taking leisure in gambling, it also avoid you been idle, bored and unhappy, but when you choose the other side which is bad as well, then comes in many negative experience through your gambling encounters and this start with the inability to maintain a self control in gambling
Gambling wont really be having a bad side if someone do really accepts the possibility of losing money or making himself in good control with his finances.We know that gambling is just for fun but there

are people who do really go into certain extent on why they do really ending up on getting fucked with it.You wont really be falling into addiction if you dont let yourself go fall into it.

Worst day would come specially if you dont have control into your finances and do keeps on losing even if you are fully aware of that.

But I think even people that have money to lose in gambling will felt differently, I mean it you are very competitive person and you just lost in gambling in thousands of dollars the first thing you want is to try to get it back because of your competitive fire. And this might lead them to gambling addiction though.

And for sure everyone has share their own personal experience, some play for fun, some to really gamble and think of making money. In the end, it's out decision that really affects us whether to have one of the worst day in our life because of gambling, or just walk away from it.
I don't know if anyone knows of such a gambler who hasn't lost after gambling for a long time. I consider it is a very common thing for the people who gamble more will lose.

But sometimes some unusual fact works among the gamblers which is persuasion to recover the loses. If they take a break during this period it can bring them good things. They quit gambling only when their money is almost gone. It is never right to persecute under such circumstances.
Chasing up losses would be always the case and this is what making gambling businesses to be profitable on which these people would be always thinking  that they could really able to recover on what

they have lost.Its indeed a common thing and this what makes people do really continue to play no matter what.As long they do have money to spent then they wont really be that minding about

on how much they had lost.Worst day would come when you dont already have money on your pocket and you do have lost all of your savings and emergency funds on gambling.
This is the true disaster.
2357  Economy / Economics / Re: Have you been grateful for today? on: October 06, 2022, 08:44:07 PM
According to traditional economic theories, it is in our nature to want more... As Homo Economicus beings, we consistently make rational decisions to maximize our utility. We strive to earn more profits by acting in this direction. That's why we don't think too much about gratitude. I consider gratitude as a virtuous act, but in today's world there is not much place for such concepts or such concepts are destined to lose their value day by day under current conditions... I act according to my personal needs. If my financial situation is stable or positive, I can choose to take more risks. If my financial situation is negative, I choose to be grateful.
Really that normal on having those kind of behavior on which a certain human being could have.We are trying or doing our best to have more and thriving even if you do already achieve something.

Even myself do really remain on being competitive and thriving my best to earn more since we know on whats the advantage on having more which you wouldn't worry about survival
if you do have the money.
But its true that contentment on the thing that you do have currently is always been good but never stop make yourself on being ambitious on things.
2358  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The right mindset needed for all traders on: October 05, 2022, 11:21:14 PM
It is very important for every trader to have skills and right thinking.Otherwise, they will not be able to win in the market. The current market is completely random and without the right mindset and thinking, there is no way to win in this market.Patience and Consistency Even if you invest, you can profit from it. If you have this trait in you, you can become a winning trader with the right mindset.
Most of the traders that fail have the wrong mindset from the beginning of their trading journey. They see it as a source of huge profit and even a shortcut to success and just disregard the risks that they might be facing. Setting the right mindset right from the start of trading will have a huge effect on our success.
A positive mindset always attracts positive outcomes but we should also add perseverance and eagerness to learn everything so we can deal with all the challenges that the market might throw us. It is given that we will commit mistakes because there's no such thing as perfect trading but we should learn from all the wrong decisions that we may take when trading.
Always be wise in choosing the coin that we're trading and be mindful of their capability. Always set a target goal and make a firm plan to reach it.
Its understandable when we are just still new or starting up on which it would really be that normal on having those mistakes.The important thing on here is that you do make yourself able to learn.

You would eventually be aware on how things works and what are the actions needed for you to do so, so that at least you do know on what you are doing.

Mindset is never been preferred on being greedy.Dont make yourself fall into this category because it would be resulting into lots of mistakes.

So let me get this right: You first buy decentralized money which you bought because you do not wish it to be in the hands of a single entity that controls what happens to your funds. So you then decide to take that decentralization and centralize it all over again by giving the bank your wallet(s)? That seems to defeat the purpose of Bitcoin, which is to BE YOUR OWN BANK. If you cannot handle the responsibility of handling your own money then I guess you can give it to a relative or a friend and hope he does not steal it, lose it or gamble it away. Same thing will happen if you give it to a bank. Roll Eyes
Agree on this one and we know that there are indeed ways which you could really able to keep those coins without the need of touching these banks or any services which would really be the cause of

of losing funds because you do believe that they do offer full and assured security on those things that you had entrusted to them.I cant really sleep with those kind of set-up,knowing that your

coins are really on the hands of something thats too centralized and anytime they would really be accessing those things if things becomes shit.
Its better to hide on your own and finding up ways which it is actually that possible.
