Its volatility feature is the thing that merchants had to consider accepting Bitcoin as a mode of payment. If only that its value is stable, the majority will likely use it instead of fiat but as this can never be changed, we could think that Bitcoin won't ever survive or exist without fiat money.
But it was not an issue, I think. Fiat money will still be there even there is a surge of Bitcoin demand because the majority will still be using fiat compared to Bitcoin.

It is very simple to choose which one is profitable and sustainable coin the market. They are a lot of them, actually. Only we need to keep them rather than looking for other potential coins which we are not sure about. For we are about surrounded by scams and fake projects, the more careful we are going to choose of what project we invested as this can be final and no way we can get our money back once we fall into scam projects.

Most of us here are betting on Pacquiao to win, that's for sure as most fans are Filipino fans. I only notice a few here that think Spence will win although in sportsbook he is the favorite, so this thread is a bit bias, lol.. Anyway, as long as we will see a great fight, that would be so nice, whoever wins as long as it's an entertaining fight and both will make a good payday.

So you think he has not benefited from that pump? I guess the intention was really to make money because if he has a genuine intention which would want to help the market grow, he should have not shill a meme coin that has no fundamentals.

I saw the 4th quarter and it was really a close game, I didn't expect Magnolia will cover the spread, but that's the game, sometimes you are lucky, sometimes you are not, so I would say congratulations to you bisdak40 , you have some blessing on your mistake.

Calvin Abueva had a double-double with 26 points and 10 rebounds in his debut with Magnolia, that's very impressive knowing it was a low-scoring game.

Yes, it was and they have been influenced by others saying that they can make money for trading. Apparently, they find it wrong once they are doing it by themselves. It was really unfortunate how these people become blinded by the word MONEY without knowing how many losses they've got first before making a profit.

I lost $100 for my first try, I really think about quitting and I really did. But I'd realize that quitting could make me not to recover my losses, so I come back. But this time, I'm already backup with knowledge and now fully understand the market.

There's a major dump, if we look at the top 10 worst performers in the last 7 days in CMC, Doge is included with -21%, that's a huge drop and for sure investors will panic, I'm talking about the top 100 coins top 10 worst performers.

Maybe the hype is already over, DOGE is going back to below $0.1 or the price where the hype started.

What would Elon do now that his hype is not effective anymore?

As of now, I don't see the supply and demand principle really works as there's no big demand of bitcoin yet for usage, its demand only grows significantly during the bull run, and with that, it's not due to real usage but due to hype where people buy bitcoin to hold or trade. The real supply and demand would work better if there's a increasing demand of bitcoin for online transaction as that's  really the purpose.

I hope this could help OP https://coinmarketcap.com/
All you need to study the market and do some search. Bitcoin remains dominating the market, not ETH. And altcoins remain to follow the movement of Bitcoin, not the one to follow Altcoins.

Don't take that seriously as the OP still confuse about what coin is dominating the market. That is to find ridiculous but we just have to try educating him and help him to get familiar with the market sentiment and ranking.

That was obvious as we all come in crypto looking for Bitcoin, not altcoins to invest. And despite the number of altcoins are growing and the surge of market competition, Bitcoin still remain on top and continue to dominate the market. This can never be changed and that was clear to see that the altcoins are still dependent on Bitcoin. Of what had Bitcoin does for several years, it gives a reason why the community will choose this coin despite the fluctuating price and sometimes long confirmation of the transaction, and also high fees.

The long term investment is easier than the short term, but you are right, monitoring is very important as altcoins are less stable compared to bitcoin, in altcoins, the CEO could go scam which would not happen to bitcoin since its founder is anonymous and bitcoin is there and cannot be tampered, that's why it's a better long term investment than altcoins.

However, based on price trends, altcoins are more profitable in long term hold, so that's a positive them, but it's riskier so always pay attention t the market condition.

He was just too inconsistent, one night he dropped 30 points, the other night he will only make 10 points, that's who he is now, but we hope he will have a big game on the road where it's important for them to win, but anyway, there's always Giannis who will remain consistent in this series, so bucks still have a great chance of winning the series.

If that OP only chooses those reliable coins, he can never lose his money unless if he gets panic and sell them at a cheaper price. But I feel that he is strong to deal with the market drop and I know he was able to wait for the next Bullrun. So therefore to say that OP's strategy will work for him and the others will consider following what he does. 

We certainly understand the risk here but eventually, it can be minimized if we know how to deal with the unpredicted trend and we are able to control our emotions.

Indeed, some people just joined the signal groups because they think that this is the answer to their call to make rich. But unfortunately, they don't notice that these people are milking them from their hard work money. Because the reality is that these signal groups have to do nothing with us, they make their own analysis which we can make it as well.
But I could say that trading is like gambling and the result it is either we gain profit or just lose.

The question is, has anyone been jailed for market manipulation in crypto?

I think there's no law about that yet and market manipulation is not new in the crypto space, the reason why the market is so volatile.
Elon is a billionaire, let's assume he has a lot of lawyers, so he is sure himself that he will not do stupid things that will face him to legal liability in the future. If McAfee for an obvious market manipulation during 2017, for sure nothing will also happen with Elon Musk.

You'll have a great future if you continue accumulating consistently and if you hold it in for the long term.
For me, this is an effective strategy and I like it because you are buying regardless of the price of bitcoin.

The timing now is really good because bitcoin is in the correction stage and we might see it dump even more, below $30k.

With that, you'll be able to accumulate more BTC due to the cheap bitcoin price.

Sorry to butt in here but what you are looking for might not come because no one would risk their neutral reputation, you might get applications from neutral trust accounts but eventually they'll still get red tag by some DT, in the end, you'll only have reg tagged accounts working in this campaign. 

It's our money, we should find a way to handle it carefully, we have to understand the risk to be able to minimize it.


This is a golden rule in investing, everyone should follow it to minimize the risk unless an investor is a real risk-taker and still winning to lose everything he has. If we educate ourselves on the current market situation, it would be easy for us going forward as safeguarding your assets is just part of the basic things you need to do.

This is how manipulation is taking effect in the market. Rich people are the cause of losses and people think that following what they say could make them rich also. But, it was sad to say that they are bringing themselves to a worse and regrettable decision on their life in terms of investment. 
Of course, these rich people don't care about what will happen to their followers as they just care about the money that he/she receives.

Because they wanted to make money and that is why scam people, that is the reality nowadays.

Developers make their own coins for the sake that they can generate a profit out of investors who think that they can make a living from their investment. But somehow, the result is very disappointing and everyone who experiences this will certainly be thinking of leaving.
