They could sell your identity or use it for identity theft. It is not worth it giving away your personal information. We are in crypto because we like anonymity, so giving away your personal information goes against it.

Those who do KYC for penny usually submit fake information and IDs.

The bitcoin community and its developers are the ones developing Bitcoin. The government has no role in it. The government though can greatly affect the adoption of bitcoin in their respective country. If they allow or ban bitcoin can deeply affect adoption progress. But nonetheless, bitcoin cannot be stopped because it is decentralized and no central government can stop it.

Still too early to tell, it just has been 24 hours and the price is still spiking. It seems that no one has bought the pump yet even after reaching 5k levels for a while. It immediately went back to 4900 after reaching the 5k level. I say we can find a new bottom once we break in 5500.

It is still considered a job to me since you get paid to do it and you spend your time doing it. But you cannot consider it as a professional job nor list it on your resume when you apply for a job in the corporate world. Whether it is a job or not, it is only a label. It should not affect the bounty hunters as long as they do their work and they are happy in what they are doing.

There is a correlation between the bitcoin price movement and google trends. But you cannot use that to predict the future price because it works backward. By the time google trend shows up, the price has already peaked and you will be riding a downtrend already.

It is not too late though. The price just started pumping and there is a lot of space the price can grow. But before he starts investing, he should know the fundamentals first of the coins he wants to invest in. If he blindly follows all the suggestions here, that can end very badly for him.

I will give it a week and see if it holds or see if it breaks 5,500 and no dump is happening. The last time we saw a bull ran, it shoots from 5000 to 20K. This could be the same as well.

Is this diary for your own consumption only? There is no way for us to verify your bets because it is in code. You do not have to detail how you make your picks, but it is more entertaining and educational for those who follow your thread if there is a way to verify that those numbers are factual.

This is the same concern I am worried when joining bounty campaigns that require KYC. The information we are giving away can be used in identity theft. This is also the reason I stopped joining bounty campaigns. I used the first solution OP stated. There is plenty of campaigns you can join without giving away personal information.

There is no strategy on gambling on chance games because it is based on luck and you are betting against a house that has an edge. You are meant to lose on those game but it is still fun to play. If someone wants to set a strategy, it should be on sports betting because there are stats that you can rely on basing your bets. By knowing the game, you can make a good judgment of the result of the game. There is still a chance you will lose but not as great in chance games.

I think it is important in sports gambling to know the game you are betting on. By watching the games, following the news and trades on the sports, you can make a wise decision on the team you are betting. Besides, it is more fun to watch the games if you have money riding in it.

You are right, it is hard to take a loss especially if you are dedicated to the game. But if it is just gambling, I do not take it too much. Gambling is just for fun, and losing some money in it is fine. I learned not to take the loss seriously in gambling because if you do, it will crumple your life. Focus on something more productive than gambling. Recreational activities will help as well.

Are you endorsing ExWallets exchanger? I made a quick search about this exchange and I found too many negative comments about the process. I will not risk my btc in such an exchange. I prefer to do a conversion with person to person. I feel safer that way.

That is an April Fool's joke. There is no approved ETF yet. Or maybe they believed the joke and the price surge. hmmm

AFAIK, there is no basis for this price surge, so I am thinking it is just P&D. But it does not mean we can't take advantage of this great opportunity.

I am trying to find some reasons why the sudden surge in price and I can't find one. Then I thought this is crypto and maybe this is another fabricated price surge. This is a good chance to get some cash out and wait for the price to fall back to the previous support level.

There is a service in my country where I can convert bitcoin into fiat in demand. So if I would do what Op have done, it is not that hard. I will not have to wait for someone to pick up the phone and convert my btc to fiat.

But I think, the convenience of converting btc to fiat is counter productive. There is lesser demand for shops to accept btc since most people are converting it to fiat. This is reality, atleast in my country.

i would like to see someone try it in a day without converting btc. I know in some countryit is viable.

Everyone knows this is an April Fool's day joke. He would never endorse bitcoin. He just claimed that bitcoin is not a currency.

A lot of investors in 2018 were scammed, and most ICOs did not generate any profit. These could be the reason investors are appalled in investing in new ICOs. Unless we see improving performance on projects engaged in ICO, we will not see the rise of investors putting money on it.

Theymos got me riled up as well until I saw the gender choices, politically correct much. Now I am out to commit a crime because I need to list one to get verified. ;-)

I can't complete the KYC. I am out for a bit to complete my first crime. Which crime do you think can assure me of a verified status?
