I do not think that there is this "big auto" that can stop him, or stop tesla because if there was one they would have already done that too long ago. However I think the appeal of Tesla is not about electric anymore, it is about brand, kind of like Steve Jobs made apple into because we all know that you could get a much better computer for the same price but people still do end up with mac, if it is about your work I could understand but people do it for show purposes and for the brand name as well.

Tesla is sort of like that, or becoming one at least, there are better cars out there for electric and much cheaper, there are cars one third of their price and it is still electric and it still goes, is it better? Probably not but hey it does the job and its very cheap, yet for some reason people still go for Tesla, why? Because, it is a symbol, it is basically a life style item if you can afford one.

ICOs and new projects are doing well recently because of the big bull run the market recently saw. Good projects like DOT will always perform well even when the market is bullish or bearish but new coins like recently SHIB is gaining some real momentum so these kind of things do happen when the market is going through a bull-run.

on the contrary, I would say holding is certainly the best strategy for years and I know some people might have earned more with altcoins but a solid and easy to execute strategy in the crypto market is just buy and hold bitcoins because any coin might drop or rise but bitcoin is only going to go up.

I agree with the notion of bitcoin as the biggest portfolio piece, I just do not agree with the 5-10% part (depending on the coin of course). Right now 90% of my portfolio is btc-eth-bnb and has been like that for months, I am very happy with it, I made a great deal of profit that way, while others made even more I was quite happy with what I have.

But I did purchased eth and bnb, those are altcoins so I could say that I do not have 10% in altcoins, I do have 10% in other coins aside from these three, that is the true part and I agree with that but the fact is that I still managed to make  a good amount of income from the biggest three coins in the crypto market. That is why I agree that you should not swim outside of shore too much, but you can keep it at the top levels if you want to, which I did, I have like 40-50% of my money in bitcoin as well, just not 90%.

He really said that the Bitcoin they make from sales won't be converted as fiat, are you really sure that he's going to do that? Maybe they will for some time, but it wouldn't be for long, because they are company and there might come a time that they are going to need the money they have there, unless maybe the price of bitcoin goes really high and they have a lot of money stored there and so they wouldn't need to be selling all their money/coins to sort out some issues. They might not sell all, but they will still be selling some of them at sometime, that's what I think. But it's good that they are accepting cryptocurrency.

As for adding Dogecoin to the list, it's all up to them to decide. This seems to me like the time for Dogecoin, because with everything that has been happening all this while, dogecoin has been gaining some popularity and has been going up the chats, I don't think this is the end.

It's upto you how you finalize the terms. If you gave someone a loan in BTC then they must pay back in BTC but if you gave the loan in USD but paid in BTC, then you have no right I think to ask for the same amount in BTC.

A lot of people do short and long in trading based on how they feel the market is going to move. If you take borrow 1 BTC at $55k and you have to pay back in BTC, and the price dropped to let's say $45k then you made some easy profits but the vice versa is what fears me.

The biggest problem everyone might not be aware of is that there is no cap for the total supply of dogecoins which means there is no fixed number of coins and there can be unlimited coins in the future so holding dogecoins doesn't make any sense specially since there is no staking mechanism neither it has a fixed amount like BTC which helps to increase the value of BTC in long term.

So I was checking your feedback and find out that the thread you created elsewhere was copied from somewhere else, as mentioned and spotted by SFR10. Now, in this thread you already mentioned the content is created by coins_hunt telegram members so anyways not sure how it aligns with the plagiarism rules of the forum.

Although some really good points and NFT is indeed one of the burning topics among the crypto traders with some of the painting if I recall went as high as $69 million or something. Staking is a good idea but there are so many ponzi schemes out there that you have to be very cautious and make sure the coin you are staking does work on PoS because I have seen some websites for dogecoin recently where they offer staking rewards but dogecoin works on PoW.

I am not sure if dogecoin mining is possible, maybe some exchanges are offering it but no such concept actually exists in dogecoin because it works on proof-of-work as we can mine dogecoins using hash power. My sincere suggestion would be to avoid staking coins because any exchange can turn scam any time and you don't have the private keys then you are not the owner of the coins.

I had some coins in bleutrade and a few small exchanges while others ran away with my coins, Bluetrade is still running but they have stopped replying to me and my coins are locked under them. I have few hundred dogecoins there and I left it there because it was not much worth back then but now I regret even leaving dust there.

You are right the government cannot control stable coins or just any coin actually. I think even if the government launches their own stable coin, people are not going to use it because it would be tracked, traced and taxes will be imposed which ultimately sounds like making transactions from your bank account.

The reason stable coins like USDT are so popular is because they give you a solid way to store the value of your coins while also not asking for any KYC or giving your details to the government. The governments need to understand that freedom and privacy is the only and most important reason why cryptocurrencies are taking over, be it a stable coin or utility coin or just any crypto in general.

Having USDT in wallet feels like no risk of market movement while having complete privacy, which I am sure no government launched stable coins can achieve or even aim to achieve.

Good choice actually and I have myself used Trust Wallet and it works pretty smooth while has all the security one needs.

I would have recommended some hardware wallets but like Pmalek also said, they are not suited for small transactions that come with mining coins. I would say that trust Wallet is actually the best choice considering the security and variety of coins.

I guess telegram is the only place where people discuss such things but there are so many fake and deceptive groups that it is nearly impossible to find real traders and discuss with them. I guess it would be a nice idea to build a platform where people can discuss their trading knowledge and brainstorm with others and there can be some membership so elite traders would discuss in a particular group or something like that. Like we have bars in real life where people meet and make friends so a platform where traders can meet, discuss and have fun together.

I agree and there is a lack of confidence in your trades when you are completely reliant on someone else for your success. It is very similar to copy trading and it is not worth it because you are not using your own skills and hence getting more and more reliant on others. Depending on others for your own profit can turn out to be bad in the long run for many reasons.

1- Once they are good at what they are doing, they might increase the charge ultimately cutting your profits.
2- Some organizations always look for such individuals and if they hire them, you are basically out of trading because all these years you learned nothing.
3- Your signal provider might fade with the market moving so rapidly and you need to find someone else to rely upon.

So overall, trade yourself because others cannot carry for you long.

I was wondering the same and failed to find one but I did find some fiat betting options as the sponsors of these tournaments are betting sites mainly. I was watching some videos and it looked fun almost like UFC they play a few rounds where you either knock your opponent down or there are judges who will score the fight.

Let me tell you one interesting thing though, like UFC there are drunk judges in slapping tournaments too and they make some bad decisions so be careful if you are betting on a fight where the fight doesn't end with a knockout. It is a fun thing to watch but if you ask me, I won't be betting too much on it unless there is more growth for the sport.

I feel like people who are new to gambling are rather more prone to losing big amounts of money as compared to someone who gambles on a regular basis because when you are new into gambling you feel like you have found a way to earn easy money and initially you might actually win some which then makes you go big and hence go bankrupt.

But once you are gambling for some time you automatically build a sense of understanding that it is not possible to win every time and if the bets are not paying then it might be the right time to stop betting.

People who are new to gambling/betting think they just cannot lose which is the root of the problem.

I watched Bucks versus Spurs game last night and it was incredible. Spurs are truly the most inconsistent team in the NBA, they are more consistent with the way they lose, but they are definitely inconsistent with how they will come out that day. Yesterday's game was clear from the start, they played so well and shot the ball so incredibly well as well, they destroyed Bucks in a huge blowout and I think it is definitely the same feeling when you watched Spurs back in the day.

However they are looking quite low on standings for now, they are at 10 and 2 games behind Grizzlies, I am afraid they are not going to actually have a chance with the play-in tournament and that is still fine, the team is young and they are adding and removing bits and pieces to make the team better, in 3-4 years they are going to be really great but they just need some time.

Use case yet to be created? What kind of? So, you people are talking about a token which is not having a use case still? Then what is the purpose of such token? Only speculative purposes? I do not think this will work. A token or coin must be created to solve a problem by providing a solution and not in the manner of fund rising reason alone.

This way I believe there will be no need of going for creating a token specialized for this forum. If any one of us, will be coming up with proper reason for having such a token, then I will agree to have without any hesitations.

Letting himself to decide must be the best option here in my opinion as well. Some investors are always in hurry to make profits because they are not ready to believe into stable market conditions because of their previous experiences with high volatile market conditions.

So, they just want to realize all the profits they are seeing; this is the reason that they must be always going for book profits rather than waiting and letting profits grow further.

I'm not sure why devs are always acting in favor of miner but not bothering about end-users. For the case of bitcoin also they are not going for long-term solutions but they adopted just the time being solution of segwit. That is the reason we are currently having very huge transaction fees again along with ethereum.

I believe etehreum devs are simply following same kind of tactics which is the reason they are not hurrying to find a solution for their scaling problems. At the same time, unlike bitcoiners, dapps people might start looking for alternate platforms for hosting their project. I believe it is already happening and it may go more intensified in near future if ethereum devs will not solve the high transaction fees problems at any time soon.

Not just complicated but it is sounding like too one-sided. Most gambling houses are running the illegal license or running without any permission from government which makes them to modify their terms and conditions according to their wish at any time.

When we're getting into any gambling house, we may go for checking their license information and then we may get start with them but actually they are not bind to to our country which makes them to freely act upon when we are making profits with them. I guess this was what happened for the case of OP.
