2801  Economy / Economics / Re: We should separate the markets for Bitcoin* and centralized altcoins on: October 05, 2022, 02:54:16 AM
Whatever Bitcoiners want, exchanges really don't care — and separating decentralized and non-decentralized would just add unnecessary clutter on their side. And the fact that listing majority of cryptocurrencies as "centralized" will most probably put people off from buying that certain cryptocurrency — decreasing trading volume hence decreasing revenue.

Soon as coins sent to a mixing service the chance it being traced becomes zero. Although crypto chain analysis services are growing and improving day by day. But still i dont know if they can still traced it but i would say it is already a goner. Unless the hacked cryptocurrency is a stablecoin where it can be freeze after a sanction.

Most probably not. Mixing service users can still mess up their privacy even after mixing if they don't know what they're doing. (e.g. recombining coins in an address after mixing, etc). Hackers messed up their privacy in the past (one way or another), and it will happen again and again as long as people are careless and cocky.

But with regard to his market predictions, whether about fiat or Bitcoin, he might not have what it takes to be considered an authority. He doesn't have a solid credentials. But he has been a broken record with his advice to buy gold, silver, and Bitcoin.

Wrote a successful book about basic finance? Automatically thinks he's an expert with macroeconomics and that he can predict crap. Unfortunately, success can easily make people very cocky.
2804  Economy / Speculation / Re: Biden team asks congress for clearer crypto regulation on: October 04, 2022, 03:24:52 AM
It being good or bad will almost always depend on what the resulting regulation is. If I were to guess though? Probably not. Most if not all the fossils sitting in congress probably don't even know how to navigate the internet decently well. And now they're going to regulate new technologies? Lmao.
2805  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: it can affect the price of bitcoin? on: October 04, 2022, 03:13:20 AM
it can affect the price of bitcoin?

Not sure what you're referring to specifically by "it" here?

If you're referring to futures markets, then yes. Because in the back-end, futures markets pretty much consists of buys, sells, and borrowing — in which all 3 affects the markets in their own ways.
2806  Other / Meta / Re: We can easily implement Dark Mode on bitcointalk right now! on: October 04, 2022, 02:48:16 AM
Can anyone confirm if having dark mode via CSS only is a lot more consistent than using the Stylish plugin? With Stylish, sometimes I'd have to refresh a few times to be able to get all the rules/declarations to reflect to the UI consistently.
2807  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: crypto communities on Discord on: October 04, 2022, 02:25:00 AM
At the moment I'm checking the different servers every 15 minutes to see if they post signals, but it's not very efficient

You know what's not efficient? The "signals" themselves. Because 99.9% of the time, these "signals" are announced just to profit off you people by frontrunning you with the buys and sells.
2808  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Can I know That How much earnings Can be generated Through Signature? on: October 04, 2022, 02:13:27 AM
Here's a compilation(covers probably like 99%) of the signature campaigns that are currently running: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=615953.0
2809  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Gary Gensler's SEC sues Crypto Influncers and posts on his Twitter as propaganda on: October 03, 2022, 06:59:39 PM
Lmao I can't even count how much "influencers" need to actually be pursued by the SEC. Namely: Ben "BitBoy" Armstrong, Lark "CryptoLark" Davis, Ran "CryptoManRan" NeuNer, Michael "SuppoMan" Suppo, Tai Lopez, the list goes on.
2810  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price: Watchout for 30% decline in Bitcoin price, according to this indi on: October 03, 2022, 06:29:30 PM
So.. someone is expecting a price decline in a bear market that's like 11 months strong. Such a unique opinion wow I'm impressed. 99/10
2811  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: How can a thief benefit from his thefts? on: October 03, 2022, 11:29:55 AM
They either use current privacy solutions like mixers and coinjoin, or they can just chill a bit and wait for potentially better privacy solutions to potentially have a safer getaway(regardless if with bitcoin or ethereum). Safe to assume that some of those hackers can hodl for a bit especially if they're long-term bullish.
2812  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does everyone want bitcoin to be stable in price? on: October 03, 2022, 05:40:06 AM
Regardless if we want it or not, stability should come if it's the case that bitcoin becomes big enough(probably à la gold or bigger) in market cap some time in the future. But before(and if) we get there, bitcoin needs to go through this heavily volatile phase.
2813  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is it best to have a personal trading strategy? on: October 03, 2022, 04:30:50 AM
Yes, and it pretty much apply to any other skill/profession/business. If you figure out your own (working) strategy and if it's actually the case that only you or a few number of people use the same (working) strategy, then chances are you can profit from it handsomely.
2814  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Privilege to teach Bitcoin in church on: October 03, 2022, 03:48:23 AM
I'd be kinda fine with this as long as you didn't recommend people to buy bitcoin, and if you made it very clear that bitcoin is a very risky hold(which it looks like you did inform them based on the flyer).

While there's nothing really wrong with doing this in the church, it'd be better if you did it somewhere else as some charlatan might use these photos saying that people are promoting ponzi schemes in your church.
2815  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If I get heart Attack that is because of BITCOIN on: October 02, 2022, 03:07:20 PM
You either:

1. Learn how to trade properly
2. Just buy and hold
3. Not invest altogether

Chances are, you get such results simply because you get the same market sentiment as with the majority of amateur "traders".
2816  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Has this been discussed before? on: October 02, 2022, 02:54:17 PM
A wallet doesn't necessarily need to be decentralized to become a good wallet. Wallets like Electrum are fully open-source and is actually reproducible, but yet it's a good wallet despite it being handled by a centralized team(and some contributors of course).

^Take note that probably the only sufficiently decentralized wallet we have right now is Bitcoin Core.
2817  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Privacy should be fought for on: October 02, 2022, 02:29:03 PM
Privacy of some sort on the protocol level will be very difficult and will take a lot of time(assuming it would actually occur someday). Also, I'm pretty sure privacy is frequently being talked about even before this incident you're referring to. Safe to assume that adding privacy(regardless if on other layers or on the main layer) is simply just not that simple to be implemented in a few years.
2818  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is Trust wallet and is it safe? on: October 02, 2022, 01:12:25 PM
Not really sure, but their developer page claims that the wallet is open-source[1]. If it's accurate, then it's definitely a positive thing.

On the other hand, regardless if it's safe or not, it's really not recommended to hold huge amounts on money through a software wallet. 99% of people should always go with reputable hardware wallets.

2819  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Net Bitcoin ATMs growth drops globally for the first time ever on: October 02, 2022, 09:51:44 AM
No surprise as even centralized exchange usage drops when in bear markets; that, and add the fact that using online exchanges are far more convenient and overall better(probably besides privacy in some cases) than ATMs.

You can purchase steel Bitcoin seed storage; or if you want to go for something cheaper, you can simply purchase steel sheets and just go stamp in the words/numbers.

Jameson Lopp has made stress tests on steel seed storages available for purchase: https://jlopp.github.io/metal-bitcoin-storage-reviews/
