“Behind every great fortune there is a crime" - Balzac. The CEO of FTX is a con star, he had an interview last year that portrayed him as frugal and a giver to the needy. I'm surprised to see he has a private jet, but in the video, when he was asked why he drives a small car, he claimed that he preferred owning a Toyota corrolla car to buying a Ferrari. On the whole, he created the video to deceive people and lured them to see him as an accountable man. Therefore, gaining trust. There is more to this Scam! It'll unravel soon.

People tend to lose friends they mentor in crypto, especially when their $20 investment drops to $13. Newbies may think you are responsible and charge you for refunds Grin However, personally, you've done a very nice thing to advise or invite a Pastor friend to invest into cryptocurrency. Always, remind him, till it sinks, of the volatile nature of bitcoin. As a Pastor he'll be in charge of public funds, and its not advisable to invest people's money, without their permission, into bitcoin. Tell him.

Limitation is a barrier in this market. You have restricted yourself to the ideas and actions of the rich people and USA. Cryptocurrency is a general technology for everybody and anyone could be of help to you not just the rich and influential people. As you will be disappointed, one day, to read on a news flash that your favorite rich folk has dropped cryptocurrency. It'll drop your morale. So, Op, be your own motivator, control your world and don't rely on anybody whether here on cryptocurrency market or in the outside world. Do your research and learn for yourself.

Both provide good resources. Read a book and look up the online details of what you've read. The Internet provides different learning methods from experts. A book consists of only the author's teaching technique, which may be complicating for some people. For instance, after reading a subject I watch the live class online then make notes from the online class. This practice help me to better understand a particular subject. So, both books and internet work hand in hand if used the right way.

Sex, OP, unlike others in the list, can cause sexually transmitted diseases. Why mention something infectious in the list of healthy activities? Its quite sad, condom is not a good protection to STD. Sex is good but, we must stay careful of who we sleep with.

Note: Don't sleep with a woman with more problems than you.

Check their reddit community for help https://www.reddit.com/r/kucoin/
I've had a tough time withdrawing crypto with kucoin in the past, as they have a network different from other cryptocurrencies I got help through their community. There, you'll know if your country is restricted or not.
2648  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Is there an efficient way to research and find new information on news on: November 11, 2022, 06:33:04 AM
Since you read cryptocurrency news sites, always look up their writers on twitter and follow them. Especially the bitcoin magazine, Forbes, and coindesk writers. They have a strong control of cryptocurrency news even before it appear on blogs. Sometimes they tweet to get responses before writing about the topic. On the other hand, a lot of cryptocurrency projects are active on twitter, so announcements appear on twitter first and the writers can retweet the announcement for awareness. They can tweet about the trend if need arises before writing about it. Therefore, twitter is like a place to get the raw information from the horse's mouth.

Your post is quality but lacks one quality. One which I've scanned to see on the list and didn't find it. Maybe, it's there, if not there, I'll add that a quality post is a post with references to the source. And it adds more quality to the first point on your list. References on a particular answer to a question facilitates a better comprehension to the reader by encouraging them to further research about the subject.

That's on the BSV chain, once CSW finally goes to jail for all his scams that chain will die just like hundreds of shitcoins have died.
The blockchain is not something that magically keeps data alive, it's the same as a torrent, if there are enough seeds the file will be available forever if nobody shares it or in the blockchain case, there is no full node available the chain is dead and nobody can retrieve the data anymore.


Blockchain, @stompix, cannot run out of full nodes or do you see a situation where it happens? at first glance you sounded like it can occur. However, I have a question, when they are no full nodes available and later on a full node connects to the network would they be a means of retrieving transactions that happened during downtime? what do you think will happen to the already stored transactions?

It's good to see recurring threads about this same mistake to maintain awareness. But, the more it appears on forums and medias people still keep blind ears to it. And such people pay the price when the exchange collapses or go bankrupt. Also, they'll be the first to complain about how scammy cryptocurrency is to them. Certainly, with the information in circulation about the risks involved in keeping funds on exchanges the victims of these bankruptcy and disputes can be said to have self imposed the problem they are facing.
2653  Economy / Economics / Re: Will you further your degree from school, or learn a new skill after college? on: November 09, 2022, 05:57:57 PM
Life is about decisions and every body has a unique dream and goal in life. However, the best idea is having a good skill then furthering your studies for another degree to back the skill. Students, infact, forget that school is not all about degree, building networks in school shouldn't be neglected.

Anybody, anywhere, in any school can gain a master's degree but the difference is the kind of network they gained in the school, if networking is forsaked the degree may not worth it. Many a persons further their studies to reach out to other like-minded students about their skills and ideas such that after the program they'll have projects to handle together and build wealth.

A person with a PHD in a particular skill who pursues a business will make good connections than a person without a PhD in the same business.

Gambling is an addictive way of doubling or loosing money. And players must be mindful of their decisions and stakes. Bad decisions in staking can lead to depression for some persons who depend souly on the gambled funds. While we celebrate our wins whether or not it matters to jubibilate after winning huge amounts of money our next move still counts. A times players fail to enjoy the money they once celebrated. Meaning that they stake all the winnings back until its exhausted, what a bad decision.
2655  Other / Serious discussion / Re: Human nature and managerial roles on: November 09, 2022, 04:30:59 PM
As it's difficult to manage a person, family, friend or yourself same thing is applicable to managing strangers that work as a team to achieve a goal in a project. Management is always easier in real life compared to online. But, a ruthless manager will gain his goals whether online or offline. People tend to learn from punishment and moderation especially on the internet. However, if a manager celebrates failure with his team they're possibility that they'll win someday (applicable to offline). Always love the people you manage, family, friends, or co workers and don't treat anyone different from others. Care for everyone of them equally if you expect positive results.

Hitherto, $1m has a huge value for people in the USA same with Euro. Though, it depends on the nation. However, to some persons in the US or Europe a million dollar won't make any change in their lives. Monetary value changes as we grow. As a kid a few thousand is meant to look big as it'll solve your problems and purchase all the toys you like. As we grow we tend to like bigger toys like cars, yatch, bike etc which cost alot of money, upto millions. Change in time affects our needs and wants which affects how money is been valued.

Bitcoin seems new to me on daily basis, you don't have to assume that you are late. Everyday, learn a new thing about Bitcoin like everyone else in this forum. Days goesby quickly and soon the Bitcoin network will become familiar to you. Ask questions when possible and try to engage with the answers under your thread. It's a sign of acknowledgement and learning get easier from contributing to people's responses. With the little knowledge you attain here as a beginner, talking to people about Bitcoin won't be difficult.
2658  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / In 2013 someone paid to store all the lyrics to a song on the blockchain. on: November 08, 2022, 11:40:06 PM
The early stage of bitcoin usage was as fun as childhood. As bitcoin grows, it's expected to face different challenges and difficulties, like in adulthood. Although bitcoin is at its teenage age, most of the hilarious bitcoin expenditure happened in the first 3-4 years of bitcoin's existence. For instance, on the 5th of November 2013, someone paid to store the lyrics of "Never Gonna Give You Up" on the bitcoin blockchain forever. The lyrics to the song are on block 468060 with 494267 confirmations. This transaction reminds me of the numerous uses of the bitcoin blockchain aside from trading coins. It's fascinating to utilize not one but all aspects of the blockchain. But, a colossal amount of users have sunned themselves under the profits and loss of trading in the blockchain network. And neglect other features that makes the blockchain unique and decentralize.

2659  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Bitcoin really crashing on: November 08, 2022, 10:10:33 PM
They is always a light at the end of the tunnel, after going bearish, bullish follows. The market has survived such situations in the past and bounced back, so FUD is not a thing.  The FTX dispute is similar to the luna crash which brought bitcoin to 20k, today bitcoin is staggering around 18k. Bitcoin will not crash, I believe, below 15k like Arthur Hayes predicts in his recent tweet. Its a sharp moment to take the risk, investors may be waiting for bitcoin to plunge again. And they'll proceed to buy at a cheaper rate.
2660  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: This is why it's not a good idea to leave your coins on any exchange on: November 08, 2022, 12:25:42 PM
Its absolutely wrong to store your money with a bureau de change. The same is applicable to cryptocurrency, its sad that many traders use exchanges like wallets where they store their funds. Trading is the primary activity of exchanges and its advisable to store spare funds there. To enable easy trading experience, but leaving a big amount of coin in an exchange is just like what I said earlier; trusting a bureau de change with your fiat.
