2381  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Are you finding a virtual assistant as a Campaign Manager? on: February 04, 2023, 04:37:05 AM


Thank you, Sir, for your valuable advice.

Yes, sir. I'm skilled in SEO, Digital Marketing, Facebook Ads Campaigns, Instagram Ads Campaigns, WordPress development, eCommerce development, Virtual assistant, Admin panel support, and so on.

Have a good day!

Best Regards,


If you have all these then you have backed up with skills no need to ask for help if you have a portfolio and skills as you claimed to have, you just need to create your own service thread in the service section, what you need is a confidence that you seem to be lacking right now, there are freelancers who are average on their skill but very confident on what they offer.

I guess the confident freelancers as you mentioned got their skills through rapid practice; researching and testing new things everyday. But, OP seem to have ignored these skills and focused on cryptocurrency investment. Now, in need of funds, he wants to ignite his knowledge on those skills. Assuming, OP, practiced often those skills he listed, he wouldn't have been left with fewer or no clients, while you practice,often, skills like IG ads campaign you'll get rewards; clients or customers. It's one good thing about OP's niche, unfortunately he left them behind. Though, like I told him earlier, he needs to channel those skills to suit one aim. Taking them one step at a time would yield him enough results.
2382  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Bitcoin freelance ecosystem development for fractions of Bitcoin - Bounties site on: February 03, 2023, 06:19:54 PM
It's a good initiative for the bitcoin tech and development niche, their rewards are also nice for developers. Though, the site is easy to use, but the number of giggs there are few, we hope the idea booms and more projects starts offering bounties for developers to join. Things that affect such sites is less publicity. If they worked on the site's SEO it'll get to developers and brands that needs the help of developers. But, if the site continues gradually given time depending on the quality it provides would boom. I've not seen this kind of bounty site, but if more niches other than project development like marketing; SEO, social media management etc. It would lead to great publicity since people are mainly focused on that field with larger amount of giggs everyday on top sites like Fiver and topwork.

Bitcoin price could have soared higher if it worked the way you perceived the market. Because lots of investors are taking their percentage of bitcoin on daily basis. I think it's better to have a rethink on bitcoin and do more research about the network to understand better how the price happens. After the research you'll have a different view of bitcoin, as your response doesn't sound right or correct, but you are a newbie, and it says a lot about the post. The market wasn't created to ignite fear on people rather to remove anxiety. Take the price of bitcoin today and don't worry about what it'll be tomorrow. Like you pointed, which is true, it's difficult to determine accurately what the market price would be, the best decision is to join the market, given time it'll be easier for you, instead of staying afraid, you'll discover that your mind would begin to work like that of the other investors who don't care much about the price before purchasing bitcoin. Fiat is already failing citizens and bitcoin is a good form of money that'll deliver people from the stress Fiat is causing them; inflation. I'd say that you should be happy that Bitcoin is here, don't be afraid.

It's a good story here and it motivates people to wait for their investment to yield profit. I'd say that he is mainly focused on selling when the price increase. He only kept holding his money because he has seen more market changes, which made him to trust that his 100k investment won't plunge down the hill without bringing profits again. When his 100k turned a million, did he keep on holding or he sold?
2385  Other / Meta / Re: How many forum members do you know by real name? on: February 01, 2023, 06:07:58 PM
You are certainly in the minority right now and I doubt much will change with the voting in the future. How did you meet al those people (not counting the ones you knew before you registered here)? Did you guys organize meetups where you would hang out, do some business, and discuss crypto, or where did you come across that many individuals?

There used to be meetups when Bitcoin wasn't that common. Also because the local section was small, people were more likely to get to know each other and meet in real life if they lived nearby. Exchanges were not developed, Bitcoin purchases were made through the forum. I met a lot of people back then. Although many of them stopped posting on the forum, when those people think of Bitcoin this is the first place they look. Some of these people are currently working at Bitcoin related companies, including the biggest local exchanges.
The conditions of 8-10 years ago and now are very different. So I can understand new members not meeting people from the forum or wanting to stay anonymous.

I think people met to have interpersonal conversations about bitcoin with forum members and it was rare to see anybody at random that could talk dip on bitcoin 10 year ago. Unlike now, it won't mean a lot to have bitcoin discussion with someone from this forum because they are always people who are not members here that knows about bitcoin. So, it was all that new feelings of beginners trying to meetup with each other in the forum. That'll be rare now and some local boards have more members that seem to stay miles away from each other. I've never met any new friend from this forum let alone know their real name. But, some members were friends of mine who I introduced to the forum and they no longer use the forum because of how complex it appears to them. Other than that, I've never been in that boat.

I think you've got a simple site and it's growing in contents, but I think you need to have contact us and about us page on the website. I can't find it on the site, if it's there please make it visible, put it on the top bar, for people that wants to guestpost on your site to easily reach you and talk business. The white colors on the site that separates the posts can be changed too. So, that it can suit the background color. Also improve your content quality and run nice keyword research on your topic, so as to fetch more traffic to your site. Crypto blogs generate nice traffic and grows faster, it'll be important to provide the best to readers. The speed is fine and that's relevant in keeping visitors to read more.
2387  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Being Lonely drives you towards Gambling....! on: February 01, 2023, 04:53:11 PM
It's normal to be sad if we're experiencing hardships in life and feel lonely if we don't have anyone besides us but relying on the comfort of gambling will not make the situation better. We can only feel more disappointed if we will have losses because we are too emotional. There are still many ways to ease our loneliness and gambling should not be our solution.
It looks like OP is facing a hard time in his life due to his mother being hospitalized and urdergoing a surgery, so his mind needed a relief for a brief moment and gambling seemed the perfect choice on that situation he found himself. I really see no issues on that, since it could be benefical for him, however, he should just have been more careful with the amount of money he was going to risk. To risk the whole month's savings is never a viable alternative.

Maybe he should have just allocated a minor budget for gambling activity, like 10% of the savings.

Stress must have pushed OP not loneliness. Indeed, he needed to relieve himself, but the pleasure of winning was unbearable considering that he needs more money and pleasure; killing two stones with one. In moments like this, It won't be easy to think straight about the right decision, yet scheduling his bankroll would have been a good decision. And he could be facing more pains than he did before he took his previous decision. However, we are expected to stay strong and manage what we have left. Hence, it'll be unfair to repeat such mistake. Not only by OP, readers here should also learn from his mistake and not get carried away with simultanous wins.
2388  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My greatest fear about Bitcoin Halving. on: February 01, 2023, 03:57:33 PM
I don't understand the mystery behind having a bull run after bitcoin halving, but I've experienced a bull run after halving and it was predicted that bitcoin would skyrocket after the 2020 halving. The price didn't move up immediately, and it's something you should understand, it may not move that same year or even after 2 years but the bull run is certain to happen. Trusting an immediate spike in price of bitcoin after halving can lead to reckless investment from investors that don't understand the market, hoping to make huge profits. However, halving adds more bitcoin to the market and at same time divide miners rewards, that means the price will definitely increase as people will buy because of scarcity.
2389  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: So far so good with Bitcoin adoption on my side but I have question on: February 01, 2023, 03:11:08 PM
It depends on the type of investor you are nurturing your students to become. If you stretch more about long term investment in their lesson notes, they won't be afraid to buy, regardless of the current price. So, saying the buy now decision is wrong, you may not teach them, and that can lead them never to buy bitcoin. They should be aware of the losses involved in bitcoin even before asking question about the digital currency, I'd say that it's their duty to invest a bearable amount of money; what they won't need in few years. That way, they'll experience the profits and loss in bitcoin market and not get worried or bothered. However, If its something they can handle, passing through the bear bull market, buying bitcoin at any price won't be a long term decision.

But, you seem to be the type of teacher that'll encourage them to wait, what if bitcoin doesn't drop to 17k again? You'll regret they didn't buy now when the price hits 30k. Just click on the positive idea, what matters is that they own bitcoin. It's important to be kind than to be important.

It's recommended to try new things while in a violatile market like Bitcoin. And your first step looks encouragable for a starter, but it seems like you are testing the waters. I'd advise you to pay for more bitcoin when u have the funds. Hodling remains the best instruction in the market, yet holding enough amount of BTC yields the best reward. Always strive to gain bigger amount so that your profits would be impressing to your portfolio. All experience matters keep buying Bitcoin. Shares!
2391  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / I didn't know IP addresses was used to send bitcoin on: January 31, 2023, 02:08:56 PM
Recently doing some research about the end of using IP addresses to generate public keys for bitcoin transactions and it seemed that Theymos was not in support of it; from the long argument it resulted to in the forum. Though, others had seen it as an insecure means of transacting BTC, it makes no difference keeping the IP address method. It's my first time of finding such tech about bitcoin, and I don't think the method stood the test of time before it was removed from the network.

Found it from a rare picture of bitcoin org website posted on twitter by Rizzo. And to know that bitcoin was also sent using the forum as a vehicle or wallet intrigued me to say that it was just a small amount of people that started the journey of bitcoin, and bitcoin has seen lots of changes in the technology.

2392  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: We lose on the long run through return percentage on: January 31, 2023, 12:38:54 PM
yet my point is that no casino offers 100 percent payout
Isn't it?
That there is no casino or gambling site that gives 100% payout is true because they are business institutional and one of the goals of making it is to get profit and profits are obtained from taking a certain percentage of each player's bet. But why can gamblers still lose all their balances because they can never know when to stop and be patient to start gambling again and greed is one of the reasons players end up with nothing.
sometimes the gambler's mindset is wrong when he thinks that gambling is a place to multiply money. there are lots of cases like that in several countries. there must be a lot of gamblers who have that mindset and in the end, coupled with greed, it will be even worse.
if we understand, especially in slot games, usually in every single game we usually get an advantage, even if it's only a little. if we keep away from the mindset of doubling money and being greedy, surely we will stop for a moment to save the win and come back the next day to get another profit.
but gamblers prefer to start pressing the spin button continuously hoping for bigger profits, even though previously the bookies had already provided a small profit and in the end the bookies didn't want to lose and we would be defeated.

Such gamblers can be considered stage 1 gamblers, at the end of the day, they end up believing luck is not on their side. Contrary to your response, top gamblers make a living through gambling. What do you think of such players? These are some experts who have been gambling for quite a long time, and have studied the program behind every machine. While not everyone should see gambling as a place to multiply money, people are definitely multiplying money from gambling wisely. So, I think not all work fits all men, most gamblers may not make a living from gambling but they play because others can make profits through gambling. It's a matter of time such people can level up to understand how gambling works.
2393  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Being Lonely drives you towards Gambling....! on: January 31, 2023, 12:25:48 PM
Learn to schedule time for gambling, put some money aside for gambling in the morning, afternoon and evening. This way you won't only enjoy gambling, but save more time for the entertainment. It's not super interesting to gamble all the funds at a time. Added with the profits you made, it would have been wise to stake your profits and recover the initial monthly savings. It's too risky to continue making such mistakes, especially when you need the money for health issues. Health is happiness and don't gamble with it. Besides, my sympathy for your mom, stay strong and learn to manage time and money when gambling. Also, try to get a hobby, it'll help you battle with loneliness. It seems the pleasure to gamble better hijacks your self concept when you are alone. The best solution is applying self denial to a point. And soon you'll be on the drivers seat of your decisions.
2394  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: This is a gathering of many hopeful people. on: January 30, 2023, 04:01:29 PM
I find that the people on this forum who have bitcoins and believe in bitcoins are one of the most hopeful individuals on the planet. I have this opinion because how can people here have so much faith in bitcoins especially the early users on this forum in bitcoins even when more than half of the world then did not believe. How come people on this forum are still encouraged to buy when things do not even look good. I am happy to be in this forum, in the midst of many people who remain so positive about bitcoins. This hope carried in this forum is infectious and for any one who had doubts about the future of bitcoins but manages to come across this forum will be very encouraged. Thank you for sharing HOPE bitcointalk.

Most men who succeeds in life are always happy and hopeful, and treats the smooth and rough side of life alike. Same is applicable to bitcoin OGs they didn't give up on bitcoin even when the market fluctuated, or the price dropped. That's why most of them are successful men today, happily going to their daily businesses. The forum is a good example and like you said it's contagious, I think only for people who wish to follow the same route as the OGs. Nevertheless, the early birds ain't out of the game, they're still with bitcoin despite the previous ATH and the bear market that just happened. So, members of the forum still buy bitcoin because older users of this forums weren't discouraged to buy bitcoin when it was a year old. They're many bitcoin elites who emerged from this forum and members of this forum today believe that we are still early. And it's the right moment to garner more bitcoin.
2395  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Hit And Run Gambling - Can The House Be Beaten This way? on: January 30, 2023, 03:41:34 PM
Isn't spending the money betting on casino better than lodging in a hotel and going for music concerts with the money? What's the probability that the business will thrive to making the person more money. Gambling is everything in life, buying a bottle of wine is like gambling, the difference is that gambling sometimes pays us back for having fun. You'll see people happy for having the best weekend vacation, and sad for losing $100 in gambling. What's the difference? Gambling is not a place to secure fast money, once a person starts seeing gambling as OP suggest, they may end up being frustrated by the house. Because the house knows what they're doing. So, running away with the profits makes no difference, nothing stops the person from starting a business while gamble at same time with few bucks to test the waters of luck.
2396  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tom Brady's Gambling and HUGE loss. on: January 30, 2023, 03:32:14 PM
I agree that 70 million can't be the reason why they got a divorce, I mean it could be as in the sense that they could have a big fight because of it, but it wouldn't make them a poor couple, they could make that money back in a year if they work, they both have the names to make that a possibility. This is why I believe that it wouldn't be a financial reason.

Just because they are still rich, doesn't mean they wouldn't fight though, either for this reason or for another reason, anyone knows that couples fight and when they fight, the smallest thing could become huge and that could lead to divorce. In order to stay married, you need to want to stay married, and be willing to work on the issues, if you don't do that, any reason could be a divorce reason.

With their status in life, it is not the financial reason why they are getting a divorce.
Actually, I believe, with their kind of status, the last reason why they will separate is because of money.
It is more on piling up their emotional stress and pride to compromise with each other.
As Bundchen wanted Brady to retire from his sports, but Brady continued to do what he loves to do.
Depression among many other things, they got separated, a lucrative divorce for some people with names.
But of course, they are the ones who will know the real reason of divorce.

It's hard to find the real reason of divorce, women are generally known as emotional managers and men careless about being emotional. Such things as upbringing could lead to divorce, maybe the player has got no time to discuss with his wife on things that mattered to her; their marriage. Well, his story is not quite unique from other mistakes made by gamblers. But, one of his steps that intrigues me to think that we get riskier when we get richer is betting on his marriage.  That's a wrong move, he could've staked his house instead. And he added to his mistake by trusting a cryptocurrency firm, out of being blinded by the friendship he got with SBF. It's just not a good time for him, but he'll get back on to his good living, maybe get a new wife.

OP sorry you made a mistake that led to a sad experience. To stay happy, you must accept whatever life offers you, and don't worry about the things you don't have rather think about the big things that keeps you happy. You've got lots of meaningful skills that can declare you a self made individuals, if only channeled the right way. Amongst the skills on your list, I'd say SEO is the hottest, and you should use other skills on that list to promote the SEO skill. IG ads, and FB ads are good ways to reach out to some audience that'll need the SEO skills, all you'll need is a good CV and portfolio. If that's in place you've solved your problems halfway. Now, I'd predict you don't have much funds to power the ads as it requires big budgets. For you to get some bucks, the service section is a good start for you. Always put the past to shame and focus on your next objectives. Within a few months or two, you'll get used to the journey you're about to begin.
2398  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: We lose on the long run through return percentage on: January 27, 2023, 12:55:23 PM
The way I understand this is as follows...

The return to player (RTP) are configured by the third party Slot provider and cannot be easily changed, but some casinos have their own original games with very good RTP. (They can alter the RTP very quickly on their own games, with the push of a few buttons)

Now for us to determine what the configured RTP for a Slot are... is almost impossible, because you need to do over 1 million bets to determine the RTP.... and they might have changed the RTP, while you were doing that. The cost is also very expensive to do that... (say you do 1 000 000 bets of $0.10 each, then you might spend almost $100 000 for that test)  Roll Eyes

The casinos have to make profit or they will have to close their doors.... but we need to have some cheap and fast option to verify their RTP. (Total transparency are needed)  Tongue

I think the third party is the casino, and they program some slot machine to pay out as they've written on the slot machine, but we must be careful to determine, which slot pays out our desired RTP. Some gamblers don't stick to one machine, in real casino, hoping to find the best machine, and it's the wrong practice. What matters is that we would lose, and jumping from machine to another to determine how they're programmed won't help anybody. So, instead of testing with $100,000, focusing on enjoying the game with 100k would help us stay longer or gamble responsibly. The most important part is scheduling our money in a way that'll it'll carry us for longer periods, not throwing them all in one sitting.
2399  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: we always regret once the price go up on: January 27, 2023, 12:42:22 PM
No matter how early, it's always too late to regret. Many people have little patience when the price of bitcoin is dwindling down, which is not a bad idea. They've got the right to sell or hold. Assume bitcoin was centralized such that when it gets bearish nobody is allowed to sell. Nobody would have loved bitcoin, but the profit rate would be higher than what we have now. Hence, bitcoin is not designed this way, and nobody should regret for not being able to control themselves. I mean after different experiences of how the market works. And, I don't see why people are afraid of watching the market, such people indeed don't want a return for their money. So, when they see their wallet or assets going down, its simpler for them not to hold, because they've not read about the market. Instead of profiting they lose out money, as they'll buy more bitcoin at higher rates.
2400  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Paypal are scammers like the FTX bitcoin exchange on: January 26, 2023, 09:30:41 PM
One problem people have with Paypal is their strict rules. It would have been better to compare PayPal to a crypto gambling site than FTX exchange. FTX doesn't lock people's account for six months and ask for their card details. They were just unfortunate, things went wrong. However, Paypal is guilty of what you claim they're. I've seen multiple complaints about PayPal ever since Elon Musk was in that company, and I think he made his fortunes from seizing tens of thousands from people's account for boycotting some rules. One bit, never in my journey of online trading did I like PayPal. Thanks to bitcoin I would have been uncomfortable buying and selling with PayPal. Hence, a major part of the reason why PayPal locks people's account has to do with the kind of transactions going on in the account. Keep trying, OP, you could get lucky!
