I was one of the first in my age group (18-24) that got vaccinated when the platform launched. I'm not against measures taken towards the dichotomy of vaccinated and unvaccinated people.
Every healthy individual should get vaccinated, I don't see why not, vaccination not only decreases the severity of the illness in case you get infected but also decreases the chance of infection.

I've seen those so-called forecasts claiming Bitcoin surpassing $100.000 within 2021, which is highly unlikely, however, $85.000 doesn't sound plausible enough for me either. We're less than 3 months from 2022, Bitcoin still hasn't reached its previous ATH or even got anywhere close to that, of approximately $65.000. From my point of view, it'll be a blessing if we even reach that record within the year.
Bitcoin did rally like crazy since the end of last year, from less than 10K to 60+, so 85 might not sound like a far cry. Still, if it ever reaches that level, I'd sell and buy some nice stuffs for myself  Okay I get what you're saying but, Bitcoin has already seen some massive growth, how likely is it to expect a rally of similar growth, just because it happened last year? I believe that it has advanced way too fast, and it's highly unlikely that we'll see it within this year. I really hope to be proved wrong, but I just don't see it happening anytime soon. |

Quite an interesting forecast. And on the contrary, it is not the first time that I have come across a forecast where the price of bitcoin, on the contrary, is going to fall.
This sounds more plausible, rather than those so-called experts forecasting 6-figures by the end of year-X I've seen those so-called forecasts claiming Bitcoin surpassing $100.000 within 2021, which is highly unlikely, however, $85.000 doesn't sound plausible enough for me either.

The reason I think why people often plagiarize is because they look down on themselves by hiding the little knowledge they have in them, they feel shy about it not knowing that if they express the little knowledge inside of them will make them to know more and help them to grow .
My man, I like actmyname's explanation much better because it cuts to the truth of the situation much better than yours does. The facts are these: 1) Signature campaigns/bounties most often pay for posts in English. 2) Many participants in those campaigns/bounties are non-English speakers. 3) Many are also dishonest and lazy and think nothing of trying their luck with the rules, knowing they can just create another account if they get caught, even if that itself is against the rules. That's the long and short of it. Also, I would suggest that we don't need an in-depth analysis of why people plagiarize on this forum. It's not rocket science. Not an English speaker myself, either, but had dedicated quite a few years during my teenage years trying to master them. Let's also take into account how many users use Google Translate, (Stated facts 1 and 2), often with poor results, thus sometimes it's just an easier and faster way to be done with it. Luckily, most of those users do not enter the most renowned campaigns, or are often kicked for low quality posts. |

Just interested to hear everyone's stories are really! some of us have been on this ride years, some of us days, but I'm curious what places/people/events have occured in your life because of Bitcoin?? For me personally, my love of Bitcoin lead me to applying and getting a job at a Bitcoin Exchange in my dream role... Pretty surreal! Now because of this I get to be involved in the bitcoin community daily, as we at CoinCorner like to stay active with fellow bitcoiners whenever we can! So yeah thats my pleb story and where it's lead me... Have any of you been lead to any life changing events because of the Bitcoin? I wanna hear them! Although I don't have such a successful story like yours, Bitcoin has assisted in my financial stability, something sort of an emergency fund, which is set aside and constantly being reinvested, pursuing a small passive income. Bitcoin had its ups and downs, but in the end, it didn't disappoint me, as a university student, having money set aside is vital, in case of an emergency or applying for another degree and so on. Hey who can complain at financial stability! I was a student myself up until this year, and I definitely prefer holding what savings I do have in BTC and not depreciating away in a 'savings account' Definitely not complaining, Bitcoin and crypto in general have been generous with me, I don't have exact plans for these funds, nor do I need them for my daily expenses, thus, it's best to have them aside, generating a little bit of income on top of them. I might consider buying a motorcycle with them, but I haven't made up my mind yet. |

Such things are unpredictable, signals aren't accurate, and can't always be taken into account. It's not like there's a scientific method to exactly predict such a thing. There are multiple times that it looked like the market was going to crash, but swiftly switched into bullish mode.
I don't believe there's such a thing as signals, there are events that could possibly trigger a positive or negative outcome on the market, however, predicting how the market progresses is way to uncertain and unpredictable.

Both of your answers are correct in their own perspective, and none of them are wrong. Its just that education as a general is similar to what Ultegra is describing, like us in engineering. We are taught of all the theories out there with regards to precise calculation, but in the field (base on my internship experience) we are more on estimating and rule of thumb. BUT the knowledge of the theories are also need to be considered. The formula's given to us are for exact calculations, where the general rule of thumb and estimation of our supervisors came from. Ergo, universities only provides his students the familiarization of terms and formulas that is common for the industry he is about to take, to be able to understand what the people in that field were they talking about. In addition, experience is indeed the best thing everyone must have, but having both the knowledge and experience, makes you a better candidate than the rest. It's just that I feel like I know a little bit of everything, but nothing in particular. I was taught the basics of economics and now I'm trying to make up my mind on how to continue from now on. I have no hands on experience on a position of my remit to judge yet, I'm hoping to work on my field soon. |

In Reality university dont give much knowledge.
Those people who are booksmart dont undestood much!
Those who have real experinces and real knowledge only counts!
Im against to education becouse I seen those people and I think most of them are really dumb.
I respect people who have real experinces in Everything in life!!
The most experinced people are most often in Everything the taxy drivers.
Its always Pleasure to talk with them you can really see that they been Through in things and they really know about a lot topics.
So the school education is only good to learn abc Numbers% calculations Everything Else is most likeky crap
University won't give you all the knowledge but it will help you to learn those by your own mind. If you thought university is where they spoonfed every information to you, you're wrong. They give you all the foundation you must learn in order to master a specific course. It's kinda offending for those who have been through a lot of exams, projects and who passed the boards just to get a good job. Also, you can be knowledgeable and get many experiences, that will make you a successful person. Universities (and education in general) should teach you how to learn by yourself. If you have the knowledge to self pace yourself into obtaining new knowledge, you'll be able to achieve anything. However, I studied business administration, and most of the economic theories are completely theoretical and can't actually be put to practice. Yes, you still need actual practice, but that's a good thing because you'll be doing the right practice because you have the knowledge from your college days. Economics is a difficult subject to grasp and master on your own. Economics is a very important subject nowadays because understanding how things work economically is important for our survival. You need to acquire work experience in the economics field, in order to understand how exactly a management position works for instance. General economics are way too theoretical and universities do not prepare you for the real thing out there, if I had the chance to switch subjects, I'd choose financials and accounting, which is something that can be put to practice. Of course, if you talk about general economics, I think it's like the name, which is just studying economics in general, it is indeed different when we compare it to finance or accounting, both need theory and practice and they can't be separated maybe I'm now graduating from Business Administration and most of the economics we were taught was too general to be put in practice. Accounting and finance is a whole different sector of course, but I'd refer them as applied economics, since they can easily be put into practice. If you achieve a BSC in economics or any other similar sector, I think it's almost mandatory to reach for an MBA in order to stand out and gain more widened knowledge. |

You need to stop gambling immediately, reducing it won't cut it. First of all, you're a minor, it's not only detrimental that you're gambling at such age, but also illegal.
You should talk to someone, your parents, some other adult you trust and who is understanding or even a psychologist, don't let it get you, before it's too late.
It's not something to joke about, I would also advise to block all, or at least most gambling websites.

The last time I was a teeny bit afraid, I don't mind admitting, was 18 months ago.
The only time I was utterly disappointed was after the 2017 crash. Bitcoin crashed from the $20.000 mark within a few days, it was literally jaw dropping to see the value of my BTC constantly decreasing. That crash was enough to quit Bitcointalk and crypto in general, only to return back in 2020. It was the only time I was afraid and disappointed at the same time. Disappointment seems a bit strange, given how much valuation had already expanded from the start of the year. I mean, from below $1000 to five-figure dollar sums? What exactly were you expecting, McAfee's vision to come true in 2017?  In fact, one guy even called it quits when $10k was reached for the first time. Such was their fear that the rise was too much, too fast (tried to find the thread, I even spoke to him, but maybe I'll be more motivated another time). Fear, I'd understand. I spoke to not a few old-timers (I was fresh-faced at the time, maybe still am, dunno) and even before Bitcoin was heading to 10k, just fresh after ATH, people were saying this was it.They turned out to be wrong, but that clarity took a couple of years at least to arrive for most. From your point of you, you're right, even after we experienced the 2017's crash, Bitcoin was still at a higher price than it was before. However, it was still depressing seeing your money slowly vanishing. I'm not complaining though, I might had abandoned Bitcoin back then, but luckily I hadn't sold any, till its price skyrocketed in 2021, multiplying my money. |

Inflation seems to be at its peak, at least here in Greece, with food and basic necessities seeing a large price increase the past few months. The electricity cost has also increased for the average household. On top of that, fuel prices are on the rise, with an average of 1.70-1.75€ per liter of unleaded petrol.
I wouldn't count on it being at its peak, as things can always get worse--but for your sake and the sake of your country, I hope it's true. Over here in the US, it seems like inflation is ramping up and who knows when the peak is going to be? I'm betting that it's not going to be soon, especially with Biden's economic policies. He seems to love giving money away, and the net result is an extra tax on every single citizen in the form of inflation. He didn't start this mess of course, but he's not making it any better. I've seen prices of certain things increase since last time I posted in this thread, which wasn't too long ago. Anyone know if hyperinflation comes on slowly or all at once? That's what I'm worried about. It's been going nuts after the quarantine, everything has gone up, from getting a simple take away coffee, to dining at a restaurant. Fuel prices have skyrocketed, I used to fill my car with approximately 60 euros, let's just say that this belongs to the past now. It's also the tourist season here, every summer fuel prices skyrocket, but after quarantine, I'm noticing drastic increases on basic goods. I'm not really one of those who kee track of prices, but it's starting to become ridiculous. There's one thing I know for sure, and that's my salary which has remained the same. |

I've been using Bitstamp for quite a few years without any issues, I deemed it as one of the most trusted ones. I'm really sorry for what you've experienced. I've stopped using it for quite a few months due to its high fees, recently though, they started requested a bunch of documents, while my account was already verified.
Since I had emptied my account, I didn't bother doing, so they proceeded to block my account. Try reaching them via other social media and pursue to escalate the incident on every platform you can, try to catch their attention, I find it impossible to just hold your money like this.

Bitcoin plummeted again on September 7 2021.BTC dropped by 54.7% on March 12 last year, by 12.54% on September 3 last year, and by 29.99% on May 19 this year. And 18.65% on September 7.
There were four reasons for the fall on September 7th:
1,The fall in US stocks caused Bitcoin to fall at the same time.
2,Singapore regulation.
3, SEC wants to sue coinbase.
4,It is related to El Salvador
Are you scared？Is there any hope for the future?
If about bitcoin, i think only matter of time until bull run come and maybe can close to last peak again. For holding big coins, usually i am not scared because what i see about bitcoin price since i first jumped into crypto, already get multiplied a lot. That is why i never lose my hope for bitcoin especially more event that come following with next halving in only a years again. People need to realize that bitcoin is strong crypto so they should never get afraid if dump will came and its pretty normal since correction always happen in the market that's why they shouldn't dump if market crash happen but instead they should accumulate to recover back and also to earn huge when bull run came. Also the only thing we trust are the top coins and never believe on the shit who always said about hold for long future since this is the word they used to hype up their project and scam their investors. There are quite a few economists, politicians and so on, people of influence in general, who are against Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. A quick look back in the 2017's crash will be enough, there were articles all over the internet claiming it to be the end of Bitcoin, with quite a few economists mentioning that it's a Ponzi scheme that quickly died. The exact same incident also happened a few months ago, when the price crashed below the $30.000 mark, way back in March. |

You could potentially earn some money if you'd opt for GPU mining, but CPU? A total waste of time and money, you'll generate more heat and consume more energy than the money you'll make.
Even GPU mining is unprofitable for the average Joe, let alone CPU. You'll just end up straining your PC components.

There are quite a few replies of people mentioning that Bitcoin is money that should be used, while I agree to a certain degree, it's advised to see it from the other point of view too. Let's suppose that you were the one that spent all your BTC to buy the same pizza you could have bought for $10, you'd definitely regret doing so.
My experience wasn't that significant, however, I'd prefer if I had used my PayPal account. A few years ago, I bought two Minecraft accounts, worth approximately $10-15 at most. The amount of BTC I spent back then would now be worth a few thousand dollars.
If you spend money on necessities, it doasent matter if you use btc, eth ,fiat, gold ,trade a goat , whatever.Money you put aside to invest is and should be considered an investment which you can afford to make and keep aside from other things.The fact that many didnt have enough to invest so they used whatever they could for necessities is a thing. How is buying a game account a necessity though? I could have easily paid via PayPal or used a credit card instead of spending BTC. I'd prefer I hadn't spend that BTC for such cause, not that regretting it now changes anything, but Bitcoin nowadays, could be considered as digital gold. Would you spend gold now to buy something like a Minecraft account? Because I wouldn't. |
