That's right, we can't really compare the cryptocurrency in other E-payments because crypto is volatile and the ones we are using for e payments are not volatile and that is one of the main reason why fiat is more good to use as a payment method because of it's stable value unlike the crypto that may dump anytime. This is also a barrier why most of the people doesn't like to use crypto as payment but they are just using it as an investments into different assets.

That's right mate! The hodlers are the one's who will win and earn big profit at the end of the day. If you intent to invest then sell it immediately then crypto is not for you because crypto are for those person who can take the risk and hold until the price up not the price drops. I've realized these for the past years because the first time I joined here and invest in crypto, I am always selling my coins immediately and not holding it for long and that's my mistake from the past that I want to fix right now.

I didn't see that there's a competition between bitcoin and ethereum because I am just seeing them as 2 of the best coins that we can invest about. Especially right now that the ethereum is suddenly surging up and up  and we are seeing that ethereum is $3,300 already which the ATH for the ethereum. Another thing is that ethereum is having a good market cap today and that's also indicates a good outcome for it's value. We don't need to compare this two because they are not the same aspects.

One of the biggest problem of the African people is that they have one of the most bad government and anyone's can say it directly as they are seeing it into the economy of the Africa, another thing is also that the voters are the first one who have the main problem here because they are the one who are choosing or picking on who they wants to lead them. If they are just choosing and picking wisely the ones that they want to be the leader then probably this will not be happen.

I think this is one of the stupid advice I've ever see. Yes you need to spend every penny on your wallet but always make sure that you are spending it in a good way and in a smart way just for example buying some assets or buying something that you can invest within. There's a lot of way in order for you to spend your money, despite that during this pandemic a lot of people lose jobs so you must need to be smart enough on where you will be able to put or spend your money. There's a saying that " Spend your money wisely."

Let's be honest everyone, we already know that many gambling games are prohibited by the government and also there are a lot of gambling games that are illegal in the eyes of the government and yet there are still a lot of people is playing and gambling everywhere and the reason here is that many people considered it as a sports and enjoyment. Each or every country has different restrictions when it comes to gambling and those who are legal gambling are the one's who are paying their taxes in order for them to be legal in front of the government and yet there are still so many gambling sessions that are illegal in which they are not paying taxes to the government and of course who wants to pay taxes? it is just a matter of bribery in a good and beautiful way.

Many people says that crypto market and stock market are the same in which if you know how to trade in stocks or how to buy a stocks in which you will be having a good profit, you can also do it on the stock market which is wrong because in stocks it is like buying some limited amount of shares in one's company but in crypto you are just buying some tokens and coins in which you can sell immediately if it pumps up not like on stocks you will wait the company to become good and successful in order to grow your shares.

Probably many people will say that one of the best sports to be bet on is basketball because we all know that most of the people here and also outside the forum knows how to play basketball and we all know that the NBA is very popular league all over the world so the thing is that we all know who are the best players and whose the best teams to bet on. If we will considered Esports then probably DotA 2 and counter strike Go will be the top 2 choices of the people.

The bull market isn't back because the market is still like a bull even though there is a huge dump last few weeks but still I am seeing that as part of the market correction and in the first place, the bitcoin is still in a bull because the price or value of it did not dump for almost $30,000 so it is still high af. For those who sell their bitcoin because they lose hope and they thought that the bitcoin will dump so hard, it's okay because you guys are just playing safe your assets.

Way back years ago, the people thinks that the bitcoin will never be last for almost 5 years but what they are thinking is wrong because as we can see today, bitcoin is almost 10years old right now. If the people thinks that the bitcoin will never be last until infinity just because the government doesn't like it then they are wrong because although the government doesn't like the bitcoin still many people are patronizing bitcoin due to it's fastest and secured anonymous transactions.

Why not? Of course, all of us are welcome here whether we are male or female, we did not value gender here and also we are practicing gender equality here. I've known a lot of females who are very good at gambling especially in poker and sports betting I admit that there are some females who are really better than me when it comes to playing poker so posting here in the gambling thread are welcome for those females who want to share some betting tips or gambling tips and etc.

Yes, the best example of this is Elon Musk and his company Tesla in which they are putting their money into crypto investments to become more billionaires. All of the hype and trolling that Elon Musk is doing is just a show in order to make a gype on Twitter especially in the market. Maybe people are brightly seeing this kind of actions but yet they are unaware of this kind of actions made by famous people and big investors like Elon Musk.

I really hate this Elon Musk, all he wants to do is to manipulate the market because of his tweets he is slowly manipulating the people and of course the tokens. Just imagine what he has done in Dogecoin which is really a meme coin and yet it surges up because of the tweets and being the host of Elon Musk. All he wants is profit to get a big amount of money, and due to market manipulation, he is gaining too much. Btw. congrats for being a good manipulator.

To be honest in the real world it is really very easy to track someone because the identity was already public but in the bitcoin you cannot trace or track anyone or maybe it would be so hard to track anyone here. Just give the scenario if the person is using coinbase which can generate different wallet address as long as you want then how the people will be able to track those kind of person? Imagine a lot of people is using wallet address and yet it is very hard to be trace.

If the situation between both countries become good especially when it comes to the health situation then probably it will happen the fight between these 2 fighters/boxers especially Manny Pacquiao one of the legendary fighter of all time. If this will eventually happen next year then we must watch it as it may brings us more entertainment and I guess this 2 fighters are eager to win as they doesn't have any fight for a long time due to the pandemic brought us by Covid 19.

If the Tesla didn't sold any of their bitcoins then probably there is a huge chance that the bitcoin may grow up and pump up again because as far as I know, Tesla have a lot of holding bitcoin right now and it would be really a huge impact if they will just hold it or sell it immediately but I think they will just hold it so that the price of bitcoin will arise again. Let's wait what would be the impact of this actions in the market, let's see.

There's no new about it. Africa has a very bad economic growth in which we can see it reflects on their leaders know that there is a lot Ponzi scheme that has started there and the bad thing here is that even their government don't know how to resolve it. There are so many money laundering issues that have been stated in that country and I would not be surprised that Africa is one of the poorest countries all over the world.

All of the things that you want to be an instant need a bribe and it is also works on bitcoin transactions. If you want to get a faster transaction then you must pay a huge or big transactional fee, but if you are willing to wait then probably you may avoid those large transaction fees but then remember if you always want fast and comfortable transactions then you may always choose to pay more transactional fees than waiting for so long. Always remember that.

What a nice catch sir! Now we know that Kaminski becomes part of this forum way back then, yet we are so sad that a bitcoin contributor and a good programmer who knows a lot of languages especially in c++ has died. May his soul rest in peace in heaven. He is a good and well contributor to bitcoin especially from what I've read on his blog. Always remember that some of us here because of you. Another good programmer dies and my deepest condolence to his family.

Simply because the people knows that the government can cover a huge security all over of their investments and also the reason behind this is that the government itself also offers a lot of investment platforms that are legal in the law so that people may patronize the government controlled investments. Another thing is that it is more comfortable and efficient to invest on the controlled investments of the government as they feel more secured about it.
