Hi all, here is a two part question:

Do you believe in Heaven?
and,
Do you expect to go to Heaven, when finished here on Earth?

Optionally, please feel free to discuss why you believe and what you think it will be like, i.e. Will your favorite pets and friends be there and easy to find? How will you find them, will we have "Apps" for that?

Please maintain a nice talk, and do not have the same two or three people debating religion, thank you.  




Heaven actually exist. I'm one of the hardest person to convince of something without proof.

My goal is to do what it requires to get there... to please the CREATOR always.

*I believe water exist because I saw it.*
 No human can describe heaven even if seen. It has a Great Sparkle that can't be described because it has never been seen nor imagined by humans. The sparkle is healing when stared at....you immediately feel healing & painless crackling in your bones/body as if being pressed together by a powerful force.


We could have our evil pets, friends, brothers and sisters destroyed in hell while we meet their replica in heaven. The evil ones are not who we think they are. Once they become completely evil they become satan.
262  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Motivating gambling addicts to invest in bitcoins. on: July 11, 2023, 03:50:46 PM
Nowadays many people in our country are addicted to gambling. I have seen many people losing their huge amount in most of the gambling games. If all those people can be informed about bitcoin, how to earn money in bitcoin? I think they would have invested in Bitcoin and they could have made money from it.Besides, if they can discuss about Bitcointalk in detail, then I think they will learn about Bitcointalk besides investing in Bitcoin. In this, the person addicted to gambling could stay away from gambling besides earning money.

One thing to remember, I'm not criticizing gambling. I'm just sharing my opinion. thank you



The "get rich quick" syndrome is part of the issue rather than betting for good reasons. Bitcoin won't make such people rich over night so they may not be attracted to it or stay long enough. This is why it's never a good idea to attract them to Bitcoin or even this forum for money, unsupervised.
First of all, let them know about the ideas behind Bitcoin, and where Bitcoin enthusiasts, fans, supporters, etc tend to gather to talk Bitcoin, and see whether they like the idea, if not, let them be else they will come & start chasing after money and gambling again in Bitcoin space instead of contributing to its growth and development.
 If you wish to help them financially, it's better to have a qualified person guide them or just manage their investments for them.
Only the disciplined ones or talented people who are passionate about Bitcoin ideals could be left in this space alone.

I attended a business seminar where a facilitator a renowned professor, and Entrepreneur shared a story on how he missed out on investing in a small fintech start two years ago which as at today is worth $500 million. He said the team had approached him to make an a investment in the start but because he did not understand how the were going to make money since he didn't invest the $100k he wanted to write them. Today, he would have been $7.5million richer had he invested.
 
They say do not invest in what you do not understand which was largely the principle the speaker adhered to but what if despite not immediately understanding the business model and its profit making model yet your business instinct pushing you to invest. What should you do? Listen to the former or follow your instincts?



Actually modern education makes people dumb, unproductive and slaves to the system's industries.
To do well, it's better to discover what you are gifted or talented in and have successful people who share similar talents to guide/refine you. But before this, consume the Word of the CREATOR of the Universe... learn basic maths, language, civics, morality, health and other necessary/important knowledge. They are what we call general knowledge for all or most people/talents.
The basic education tend to be somewhat fair, natural and useful. If you wish to go beyond the basics, look for successful people in your related field/talent and those knowledgeable in the above subjects to guide you, or get the books they have written to guide you.

What you call instinct are basically natural knowledge and talents. They are what society ought to build on and refine. Passing through modern school with high scores doesn't mean you will know how to solve world's problem properly. Infact people with great scores from such schools will need to rely on their natural knowledge to do well in society. Knowledge they obtain from the schools will certainly fail them because they are false Knowledge. The knowledge is actually light quencher capable of making smart people dumb and foolish.


There are rare cases where knowledge is "supernaturally" obtained or uploaded in a human or taught by his CREATOR in the mind and spirit. These can only be possible via contact with the CREATOR.
264  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think at some point government will change its stand and adopt Bitcoin? on: July 10, 2023, 03:04:06 PM
I think it's the power that be or centralization forces throwing in all they've got to see if they can control Bitcoin especially since they have realize it can't be killed or crashed to zero. It's more like the "if you can't beat them you join them" kind of mindset, but they are not only joining to benefit from it but to control it.
In the centralized system, they strive to master or control all things to prevent anything from getting in their future plans or agenda like vision 2020, 2030, 2040 and stuff like that. In order to predict the future, you should be able to control current events. Fortunately, no one in the centralized system can actually predict the future or control Bitcoin. Only the CREATOR of the Universe can, and HE reveals it to HIS prophets...as HIS Word says "HE reveals HIS secrets to HIS servants the prophets.
265  Other / Off-topic / Re: How do you invest safely? on: July 10, 2023, 09:15:33 AM
In Crypto space, the solution lies with Decentralized Model, a bit more like ICO (Initial Coin Offering) but more secure.
The model gives the funders or contributors the opportunity to fully control the keys to their assets or investment funds, which could be escrowed or locked in a Smart Contract under an agreement between the funders and developers on different promises on Project Roadmap that must be fulfilled before certain percentage of the funders locked funds can be unlocked and released to the project developers. Funders can always withdraw their funds if rules are broken otherwise they can't be withdrawn yet.

It's safer to unlock contributors locked funds and release them gradually to developers as they continue to fulfill parts of the promises in their roadmap. The contract can say: "unlock and release 5% of all contributors locked funds when number 1 promise on the roadmap is fulfilled".

Before fund is released, there should verifiers (with reputable verifiers having more powers) that check to see whether part of the agreement for fund release has actually been fulfilled or whether Work has actually been done, if yes, they tick "Yes" or "Work Done"... verifiers who disagree are free to point out issues for further verification before majority of the verifiers can finally tick "Work Done" after the issues are resolved/solved. This is a simple Smart Contract approach that can be automated or manual or both, and can functions in decentralized manner..

Russia economy is doing quite well for a country under heavy sanctions and attack by World powers. It would've been better if she had not withdrawn from the strategic positions she was placed in Ukraine. Ruble was doing really well only for Russia's Bank head to say they don't really like strong ruble. It was then left to be at its current position. If Russia wants it high again, let us know, probably through their media, it would be considered.


In regards to calling Russia the invader, who would you rather call an invader between these two groups: a Community of People hijacked by evil/immoral aliens or a neighboring Community that went in to rescue them from the aliens? Beside, If the neighbors hadn't gone in, they and the whole world would have been hijacked too. And the security of Bitcoin actually depends on this. An alien force fully taking over the whole world means an end for Bitcoin as we know it. So, Russia is currently being used to save Bitcoin and the world from full takeover.   Bitcoin users, miners and nodes operators around the World who love Bitcoin ideals like decentralization, privacy, etc should be thankful.
 A 35billion Bitcoin investment from the country when price is low wouldn't be too risky, as Bitcoin likely appreciates Russia and will work to help the investment grow.

.......

So after the surgery he recovered but then his mental state became unstable up till now. And prior to the accident he has over 7 Bitcoin in his wallet and now he can't even remember his name sometimes talk more of remembering his password. So my people is there anything anybody here can suggest that will help the family recover this Bitcoin because right now the family is financially down and  my friend is still on treatment.




In case like this, the right thing to do is to let the human recover fully first, as it takes alot of effort to think or process information with the mind. If the password is well cemented in the human he will remember it once fully recovered. If he has his private keys hidden somewhere, you can just hope that the place it's hidden can easily be remembered by him once he fully recovers.


For quick recovery of the mind (especially) , the human  should be fed with good/healthy foods that help lubricate the brain and boost memory. Feed him with good/holy information in orderly manner to help strengthen the mind and aid full recovery.

 Once in a while get him to sit where he usually unlocked the password... like where he worked or traded Bitcoin before the accident.

Give the human sometimes to be alone in a very quiet place to avoid distractions and to remember. Distractions create disturbances in the mind like how fallen leaves constantly creates ripples in still water below it. Images, information or reflection won't be able to form properly in the mind/water due to disturbances or ripple created by noise or fallen objects.   This is why the issue of noise must be taken seriously in any sane society otherwise fools will be used by an enemy to prevent the society from receiving divine ideas from above and becoming productive.
Just let the human recover fully.



*Edit:  password recovery option could simply be used to recover lost password assuming the human was trading on exchange/platform that allows such recovery
268  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When Will The Next Bitcoin Bull-Run Be? and Binance CEO Says... on: July 06, 2023, 03:51:52 PM
We are already in Bull market, the next bull market could come as early as next month or two if we want it so. Bitcoin now serves another master who currently controls its price.  The price has been reconfigured to respond positively to things that are good for Bitcoin and according to its good ideals/principles.
Centralized influences can nolonger have positive impact on the price of Bitcoin. They are as useless as centralized social media is on the ideal Bitcoin. The power is in decentralization and other things that are according to Bitcoin ideals. These are part of the positive developments that could move price up pretty easily
Things are nolonger what it used to be. Centralized powers were defeated couple of years ago and can no longer influence the price or predict it correctly.


Bitcoin will move slightly above 32,000 before the bear is allowed to takeover for sometimes. The Bull remains in control for now.
269  Economy / Economics / Re: Fix the money, Fix the world. on: July 06, 2023, 10:25:08 AM
Fiat currency is part of a System of slavery that oppresses the enslaved ... It is a system of control by an evil slave master who rules over billions of people. The rich, who are equally enslaved, are at top of the system, often used by the slave master against the poor in a manner that is more parasitic than mutual.

Fixing fiat currency alone won't solve the issue as long as people remain under the power of the slave master. The solution is to have a right alternative which should be decentralized for obvious reasons, then get the enslaved to abandon the centralized system and join the alternative. But you'll need to convince the slaves first why they need to flee the slave master and join a decentralized alternative system like Bitcoin. Most of the slaves will not understand and could be used to fight those who try to free them, to protect the evil system they are used to. Even when they decide to use Bitcoin, it would be for the wrong reasons rather than taking advantage of its decentralized features to become free from the slave master's financial control.

There will be few people out of the billions who will choose Bitcoin for the right reasons and use it the way it should be used. There will few who will choose the right path. The rest will take the wrong path of centralized financial control, whether through fiat or cryptocurrency. Adopting crypto without using it properly or in decentralized manner is a bad as using fiat digitally. This certainly will keep the slaves enslaved, powerless, abused or oppressed by those who control them.

Bitcoin mining equipments become more efficient and profitable when they are used to solve multiple problems at once. That's what miners, especially the small and medium scale ones, who wish to be consistently profitable should be encouraged to do. The more problems the mining equipments solve the better.
Instead of buying none mining equipments and paying for electricity/fuel to heat the pool, you could just get yourself Bitcoin mining equipments to do that for you while earning bitcoins at thesame time. This method would be more beneficial to people living in colder regions of the world.

Such issue can be quenched via justice, else the victim resort to jungle justice or lawlessness until relieved or satisfied.

It's more like the universal law of "you reap what you sow" , or "those who kill by the sword die by the sword" kind of thing, otherwise the evil hangs on and continue to weakens the Community's shield. Once blood is spilled or justice is done, the evil lessens and the heavy burden of evil/sin on the shield is reduced.


People do animal sacrifice for a reason. But that is not a enough. CHRIST sacrificed HIMSELF instead. It's important they accept HIM and be relieved/satisfied
272  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Bitcoin system on: July 04, 2023, 03:48:42 PM
The Bitcoin System is simply the entire parts of Bitcoin body working together in harmony to keep Bitcoin properly functional, according to its laid down rules and its principles

Whatever is not according to the principles and rules is not part of the Bitcoin system. They could be considered foreign bodies which are potentially harmful to the system.
273  Other / Politics & Society / To Ethiopia: TDF, Eritrea and Amhara forces could be united against TPLF on: July 04, 2023, 10:01:02 AM
To Ethiopia Head, you were suppose to completely remove tplf from power for peace to reign, instead you went on to negotiate with it. Now the cancer is regrowing and trying to create choas allover Ethiopia by encouraging fault lines among the ethnic groups or trying to unite them against Eritrea, with the assistance of Foreigners and people living outside of Ethiopia .

How do you expect Eritrea to withdraw from Tigrai when you have put her in a very dangerous and difficult situation? You ceded part of your former lands to her, used her against the tplf you called terrorists, now you negotiated with the terrorists with the help of foreigners and decided to let it go free without considering the consequences of this foolishness. You think tplf will ever truely forgive Eritrea for the lands you gave her? You think it will ever forgive amhara? It's more like you used and dumb Eritrea and Amhara after getting what you want (obedience from tplf) . How can you be so foolish. They have fooled you to save tlpf and will later use it against you. But it will be difficult for them as long as we continue to observe situation.


I noticed you are trying to merge TDF with Ethiopia army... don't forget it's greater than the army you are trying to merge it with. And it's under the power of the one who currently controls Eritrea and Amhara forces. If we noticed any more issue that warrant our intervention, TDF will be merged with Eritrea and Amhara forces to defend the regions and possibly Ethiopia.

274  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Belarus wants to ban bitcoin P2P transactions on: July 03, 2023, 04:21:39 PM
So what stops criminals from using physical fiats or cash considering they are used in p2p manner physically?
 The truth is that most transactions in fiat currencies are criminal ... like transactions for junk foods, synthetic products, low quality schools etc. Why would you allow people to buy things that kill slowly, or even pay for immoral educations?
Anyway, certain things are overlooked because we know they are done in ignorance. However, judging others while you are deep in thesame evil could qualify as hypocrisy. The right thing to do is to fix your own issues first to be clean enough and in your right mind to judge others properly.

Bitcoin isn't for criminals. It's transparent enough for exposing crimes , more transparent than fiats, People need to take advantage of the transparency feature and collaborate to expose those using it for immoral activities.
 I would advice the government to create blacklisting platforms where Belarusians can report crime transactions and get rewarded. Once the crime addresses are identified, they should be blacklisted with proofs of crimes committed attached to the addresses, then publicized for all to know and avoid them. Responsible exchanges and others are expected to avoid the addresses.


Not a good idea to force the free/innocent people to use centralized platforms that normally should be for slaves/criminals.

when i was kids, i need to study very hard, to get a lot of score in the test. if i got a zero mark in a math test, i am very scare to go home and show the test paper to my mum.

when i am grown up, i have kids and wife now, i need to work very hard, to get a lot of money in the job. if i got a paycut, or i got fired, i am very scared to go home, i can't sleep well, my head is sweating, the memory of getting zero mark in a test keep haunting me like the nightmare, i need to go out and make a lot of money!!

tell me anything i need to do to make a lot of money. doesn't matter what, i would do anything to get all the money, even if it mean unlawful and unethical!


The love of money is the root of all evil. Don't love money at the expense of people.
Cursed money not worth it, my friend . It's going to make you lose alot, miserable, depressed, foolish, etc. Simply get yourself the Word of GOD( Matthew, Proverbs, etc) and read... Believe in it and do what it says and you will prosper.

The secret to prosperity is to sow good seed or do good work in any good business you can find, preferably business you are passionate/talented in...it doesn't matter if it's owed by others. Use the business to solve problems for others... Then, ask the CREATOR to reward you through the business or through any other means, believe HE will answer your prayers and you will be rewarded. The more you sow (or the more good work you do) the more you reap. You don't need to be employed by anyone to benefit from this. Just look for any good business and begin to contribute.
Blessings.

💡If you were the real Satoshi Nakamoto, would you rather reveal your true identity to the world or not? If so, when and how? If not, why not?

Let's make this post friendly by sharing views and thoughts.

Not sure I would reveal my true identity to the world unless it's absolutely necessary. I prefer to be unpopular or not to be too much known....otherwise I would be confused, sick or lose concentration as i'm not designed to be popular. I wouldn't mind revealing my true identity to my coworkers/friends though.

Notwithstanding, it's better to remain private than giving out a fake identity which is real ID opposite. Fake ID could ruin ones reputation as it could be seen as identity theft, dishonesty,etc. Beside, Satoshi promoted honesty in Bitcoin System and Bitcoin whitepaper.
I would rather use my true identity than fake unless there is option to use a Username or Bitcoin Public Address in place of real name. My username would probably still be my real name but slightly obscured.

In a corrupted world, everything is inverted. The good is evil while the evil is good.
Whatever a corrupted mind believes will eventually get to others... it's like an infection that gradually spread until the whole body is infected. A disease first contacted by consuming the wrong kind of knowledge and trusting it which then spreads from cell to cell from person to person forming a network of nodes, in their millions, like darkened cobwebs, darkened by the infection. You must be seperate from this network, never connect to it else you become infected, turned into a zombie and hating on Bitcoin. Diligently seek the Truth or True Knowledge, you will find it, then connect with the Source of the truth and be with them, independent of the darkened Network.

Bitcoin is way better than the alternative, which the zombies completely trust. The alternative is a fiat system, a system of slavery but they have been blinded and cannot understand.

How were you so easily robbed of large sums of money? Didn't you use escrow or something similar to secure the transactions from beginning to end? Was the transaction through this forum, another site or was it completely f2f(physical?)? By the way, What f2f exactly, physical f2f or online video call? Do you have the person's real contact address or private information?
I will advice you to involve/contact your law enforcement people and those who handle such issue where your online exchange/agreements with the person took place. Inform them about the issue and send the law enforcement people the contact address or private information while those who handle such issue where the exchange took place could have his/her online profile and go through what transpired between two of you in order to do something about it.

Meanwhile, I will suggest you move this thread to reputation section here

I doubt the so called quantum computer will be developed by then. If they succeed, it will be very expensive and unecconomical to attack Bitcoin with it.

Bitcoin could potentially become quantum resistant if you could make it millions of times harder to brute force attack a private keys by using dynamic randomness to hide real keys in millions of empty keys. The nice thing about Bitcoin is it doesn't seem to limit how many address that can be generated.
280  Economy / Services / Re: Seeking Developers for Collaborative Project on: June 29, 2023, 10:25:56 AM
Our method (the one I listed above) is actually applicable in every sphere of life including in Bitcoin/crypto sphere. Since you mentioned religion on the site I will advice that yours should be based on Love,which my religious law is actually based on - First of all, Love for the CREATOR of every Good Thing:  Heaven, Earth & Entire Existence, and love for Neighbors . If you truely love the CREATOR, you will not abuse or misuse things HE created because that will displease HIM as HE created everything for the good of HIS Creations.
Love is about doing good to the Creations, especially humans, and not wronging anyone.
*Love = strong desire to treat others good/well
*Good =  A solution to problem that does not cause more problem/harm. Better still, anything that increases the quality of existence.

So let's based everything you seek to achieve on the two simple Golden Rules of Love for the CREATOR and Love for neighbor and see how well the rules work:
Participants should focus on identifying problems and solving them. Their works or solutions to problems should be good. Only good work or contribution should be rewarded. Everyone is free to correct issues in other participant works until there is no issue left to correct. I believe this is how we could help in making the world a better place.
