It's always something that I would never forget—buying a good backpack for $120, IIRC. I mean, at the time, it was something that I wanted, so I was happy. It was 0.04 BTC back then, so right now, every time I look at that bag, it's like, why???

I think it serves as a reminder for everyone that we do things because we want to be rewarded, and at that time, it was a good decision because we made it happen already. We cannot do anything else anymore, Just accept it.

We don't need to ponder much on the past.

I think the concept of money is not going to be changed whenever or wherever we are since it's always going to be why some people are doing it. I think the play-to-earn type of thing is always going to be lucrative and with all the people trying to do something to make their lives better whether it's in gambling or playing games, it's just the same overall.

What interests me in that project is the "delegation" type of project. It seems new to me or is it quite old already?

Imagine it with BTC. Maybe you thought of it first not reaching $10k when it was $4k and then look at it now. Reaching $60k and currently at $48k~$50k range. I think the technical terms that you should consider is the one with how much money should be in the space to reach that kind of price. I think if you reach the valuation of BTC in ETH, that could reach the $10k mark.

One thing that I thought about when I read this is that Ledger has the paper to write your seeds on to, why did you even bother to put it in an online storage? The probability of guessing some random seed phrase that has balance is nearly impossible. If it was that easy, cryptocurrencies should be no longer existing because it's flawed but it's not. So it's still here.

Probably make amends with yourself and accept the loss. You can't do anything about it anymore. Anyway, did you see the transactions that had happened in your wallet? That it really left the address etc?

Congrats to the new members of the BestChange family! Welcome! Mpamaegbu and Pokapoka124 Poker Player

Maybe you can try to have wifi controlled power switch that controls all the power in your mining rigs. Have a CCTV so you can see what is happening on the farm and then if something happens, just turn it off remotely. I'm not sure if anyone has done this but maybe it's something to ponder upon. I use it for some electronics like the charging of e-bike and stuff. Maybe it can be applied towards this as well. They are very useful.

You should seek financial advisers for your inquiry. I feel like every member here will just share their opinion on how you would handle it but can't give concrete advice on what you can do with your money.

With your idea, it's great that you should allocate different portions of your portfolio to different markets. If I understood correctly this would be your approach

• USDT-BTC Perp - Futures
• BTC-ALTS - Spot Market
• USDT-BTC - Spot Market

Those are going to be your pairs, right? I think that would be great especially if you trade it continuously. Are you planning to use tools like Gunbot to maximize your opportunities?

---

Anyway, for your question on how I allocate. Mostly it's allocated more in futures than spot. 60% futures, 20% Spot market, and 20% HODL. This is my approach.

Since the technology is quite new in a sense compared to other modes of payment, there is still more to do with the current updates especially when it is becoming even more mainstream now. There's no doubt about it and having that kind of opportunity to have L2's that come along with it is not bad as well. We all know the problems that can occur like what OP has included in the post, but still, we are discovering something that is saving our current financial worries.

I'm worried about the Gas fees a lot and checking the Ethereum Average Gas Limit Chart it's at a steady pace of increasing. It's getting harder and harder to use ETH.

The time is so fast that we didn't notice that it's already near Q4. I think that's where you are pertaining to. With this in mind, a lot of people can get more money from different sources, whether it's from their day jobs and bonuses, for sure it could lead to some increased money flow towards crypto.

I agree with you that you can still profit from the projects. I'm just thinking about BTC and ETH. I imagine people who bought at $3k and seeing $50k now with BTC have sold it at such a low price feel. It's just pretty weird for them but I guess it's best to have that belief in a project that you will HODL for the long run.

The best strategy is to buy continuously and average down your bought price.

I think the best NFT that are going to be hyped and highly valued are nouns. The idea is excellent, and producing daily NFT forever is making the market scarce and somehow having them is an elite status if you have those kinds of NFT. It's not going to be easy to obtain something like this, but the pooling of funds is being done now, IIRC.

I don't think that business owners will agree to that, knowing that they will have fewer players and less playing time. It's not going to be gone entirely, but the chances are that they rely on people who are always playing and not those who just go on it to try and have fun. I think having mandatory breaks on the actual game would be more helpful than taking breaks because some don't care about it. If it's a mandatory one, maybe it could reduce the addicted people and increase rage in people. Perhaps it can be a  choice for the players.

I'm always using the Binance P2P because it's a safe approach towards converting your assets towards what you want, whether you are buying crypto with fiat or vice-versa. I'm using it mainly because it's one of the most convenient ways to do actual trading. I mean, in Binance, you could easily buy a variety of coins available in the exchange and probably HODL it there. Making sure that you can afford to lose it since you know that anything can happen, whether it's getting hacked or something.

Most people would probably stay away from it since it involves KYC, but if you think it outweighs the trouble, why not?

This term is new to me, and I didn't know that whales are using it. It's exciting to me that you were able to show us this. I like your topic here.

Anyway, this is not something applicable to liquid pairs like USD-BTC or something of the like. I don't think it would be fast to cancel orders right away because many bots are probably being used in that specific exchange as well.

Are there arrests done in different markets already? Probably they get away with crypto exchanges.

I always have thought of it as the same, so I did a quick Google on this to find out the differences in general. We are comparing Yield Farming to Staking.

- Yield farming or liquidity mining, you temporarily lend crypto assets in a permissionless way.
- Staking is you lock up assets and act as a node, and there you confirm blocks in the blockchain.

Yield farming has higher risks but has bigger APY, while Staking has lower APY and has lock time.

I guess that's where you can compare the two. For a better investment, it depends on the money you are going to use. Is it going to be set aside and not needed right away? Or something that you need to liquidate right away? I think that's the better question.

This is what I'm confused with, with this type of analysis. It's a trend line showing almost 30-45 degrees pointed upward, and it's already concluded as the same. I'm just not convinced right away, and this is not to offend you, OP. I'm just curious how it's considered with just that line.

Anyway, based on the pictures you posted, it looks comparable, but the previous price action from 2021 is different from the last action price from December 2020. So I guess we have to wait out what happens before December 2021, and then the chances of it being the same from 2020 will be determined whether it will go higher or lower. We will see it soon.

First of all, you took the risk of lending him your money. If you know him, you should've taken care of how much you will lend him without any risk for yourself and how much it can affect your lifestyle. ^{Hopefully, this doesn't affect you much}

If he ever traded on the account, you should've been updated on the progress because you are the one who funded the operation that he has. I think you should be the one handling the trading account to make sure he cannot just use your funds with that. It's going to be hard to validate if you don't hold or control the account used. In this way, you can verify all the trades there and see if they are used correctly. He cannot hide anything from you with that.

I think you should ask him for verification of the balance. Depending on where he is holding it, you should still be updated on it. I hope you find a way to be okay with it. Sometimes, money is what destroys friendships.

I'm thinking of the problems that could occur with your inquiry. The first is that you need to have balances on separate addresses to have a different fund source. It would be another step to have an internal transaction first before sending, so it may be straining for you. The second is that having a web-based wallet can be prone to hacking. It's better to have a more secure wallet for that.

Maybe develop something like that. Automatically send it as an internal transaction first before sending it out, etc.

It will be all the craze—the NFT space. Many opportunities are showing up, like the play-to-earn type of games, making it one of the most players that could come and possibly be more robust in 2022.

Some altcoins that I think will boom are those DeFi applications that have something to do with trading and making sure that there are fair factors with everyone in the crypto space—being involved in those things.

With the recent price actions, I think it will be ADA. This is not a piece of financial advice.

I think the paid streamers are earning from those who have used their affiliate links and deposits in their new account in that certain casino. I think it's both a win-win situation for the streamer and the casino itself because they are being exposed to the audience of the said streamer.

Those who have a different situation, like those using the casinos' money and who are there for them to entertain, have a different agenda. It's to show how credible the site is and how they can "earn" money from playing there, and from that point on, new people can be hooked or something. It will be difficult to justify how much they can do on a certain casino, but that's their benefit from being a streamer. It's just like that.

When I read this, it seems like they have the power to make "volume" and "activity" on the site, so I guess it's for show entirely unless it's a reputable site already or something.

I think if we have this in mind moving forward, it would entirely depend on a couple of things

• Demand towards BTC
• How many miners would sell their stack
• Supply that people are willing to let go

If there are many people HODL-ing and many people have decided to HODL only, then there would be less supply, and it's going to be a matter of time when you are going to make this a point of change. More people want BTC or Not.

I would always want to have more price action towards BTC as it would rise so much. The most significant effect is where people are more involved, and more people are buying cryptocurrencies. Having the majority of coins in mind, it will have a higher rise in price since there is less left to be purchased or minted. 

All of this is always speculation.
