Do you think this competition is fair?
Bitcointalk Community Awards 2021

Honestly looking on these waking-up noname users voting for its high-ranked alts I doubt in fairness of this contest

This competition takes place with numerous violations of common sense

Concerned people actively donates the merits for those who vote in their favor

An election must be free and fair and I'm confident that it's going as it suppose to be, The entire mods are watching and if they are not satisfied, they would have alarmed the voting system.
The rule says a Voter must have earned 50 merits or be a Full member and believe after the whole voting, there will begin a transparent counting and full audit. Concerning participants meriting voters, I think they are just appreciating their voters for recognizing their efforts in the forum.

Permit me to ask you, Do you go out to vote during presidential elections? There is something called Influential voting behavior, it happens between peer groups, family, and friends, that's exactly what you noticed and makes you feel uncomfortable.

For example,
In the Scambuster nomination, I chose Ratimov because I am familiar with his thread until I notice everyone included lovesmayfamilis and you know what, They both deserve that nomination and I have to pick both of them in that category.

When we see a movie about technology, scientists are trying to bring that into reality.
As VR technology, we already see things in many movies and nowadays, we are close to that reality that we may see it will come to us shortly.
So although we think that it is impossible to have that technology that we do not imagine before, with a new technology invented, that can be possible to happen in the future.
I think the gambling business will evolve into something we could not imagine before.

Have you ever checkmate what will happen to nature if technology takes over the entire space? We've seen some advancements in games and sports, but it's at the expense of the natural fun we used to have.
Football for example, where the referee decides on every outcome of the game, but things have changed so much that they now have to preview a VAR before making a decision. I'm not saying it's bad, but the fun is fading without our notice.
Very soon, robots will be used to replace linemen, this is another issue that will shift jobs from the common man to machines.  Sad

By the way, is this allowed on BTT, I know it is a writeup from stealthex but it will be proper if you give credit to the original writer.

2926  Economy / Trading Discussion / A few key points distinguishing traders from gamblers on: February 09, 2022, 09:45:52 PM
I was looking through the weekly Tradingview education and I came across one that was really interesting. It discussed what separates a trader from a gambler.
Unfortunately, most people confuse trading with gambling, When they trade(gamble) and lose money, they blame the market or blame what causes the incompetence and justify it with poor excuses.
It is not easy to be a professional trader, but practice makes you confident in what you do for a job. This is not a guaranteed or comprehensive trading strategy, but the few points are excellent for anyone to be a trader.



Quote
1) As a trader, one’s aim is to focus on the next 100 trades instead of the next 10. Long-term success, profitability, and consistency are two of the main things traders should target. However, a gambler’s wish and desire is to make quick money.

2) A successful trader/investor has a backtested trading plan that he sticks to and optimizes along the way, adapting to changing market conditions. On the other hand, gamblers like to trade based off what other people think and tweet, or by simply opening a random Buy/Sell position and hoping it plays out successfully.

3) Profitable traders always diversify their portfolio and risk no more than 1-2% per trade. On the contrary, gamblers go “full margin mode” on a single trade without setting a Stop Loss and end up blowing their accounts and blaming the markets.

4) Chasing markets and rushing the process is not what real traders do. Instead, they follow their plan and wait for the price to play out and match their entry criteria before executing. Nonetheless, gamblers like to overtrade, open positions based on nothing, make biased decisions.

5) When enduring a loss or two (or three), traders neither get emotional nor try to revenge the markets. They know that if they obey risk management principles and open high risk-to-reward positions, they will cover all their previous losses and get back to making profits. Gamblers, on the other hand, get angry and start attempting to revenge the market by making foolish decisions and entering many illogical trades.

6) Last but not least, if you want to be successful and profitable in this field, you have to treat trading as a business and take things seriously. Those that think markets are a playground or a casino machine will never succeed in this space.

Otherwise, is there any proof to your claim? Tongue
I don't think any proof is needed, as this is opinion.

There is difference between fact and truth.
When you said binance are fueling illicit activities, your opinion doesn't just wake up your mind and say something like that, you should have read it somewhere before your opinion may count on a statement. I don't trust centralized exchange after reading so many count charges on Tether manipulation but your statement doesn't justify binance.

I read about those freeze accounts and I was damn Happy about that, they were rusting p2p section for other legitimate traders and hustlers.

What happen to anything that is so dependent on others? A day will appear that you will get denied oe that bridge and if you so depend on it, you will fall so hard that you can break easily.
That's exactly what happened to Facebook and other tech giants, they rely on personalized data to disperse Ads but the new IOS updates isn't helping the companies like then.
I like it though, give privacy power to the owner, allow me to give access to whoever needs it and if I don't, so be it.

2932  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin from the economic perspective on: February 09, 2022, 05:56:21 AM
Going through some countries economic performance and statistics I came to a big conclusion that the economic benefit bitcoin as an approved currency in a country is way more than the disadvantages of Bitcoin to an economy but what the government in scared is the decentralization of the financial system.

What the government cannot control doesn't exist in their cycle. They are pained and still in pain that satoshi idea wasn't funded by their highly inflated money, that's why the idea of giving bitcoin a chance in their failed system is so hard for them to accept.
Have you thought about it, what will have happen to the world of Bitcoin was designed by US or Russia? That would have been an oppression to other countries and would want to do the same and I'm very confident that it will collapse in no time except that they know how to mass print dollars the way they feel.
Bitcoin/Crypto will not have adoption by all countries but there are some that denied it in public and steal from people in silence, North Korea does that a lot. Grin

Bitcoiners smashed the 10 BTC goal 4 hours ago and did it again with ease.
The target has been raised to 2,000,000,000 sats this time, and donations are still flowing in. At this point, I am concerned about the custody of this donation if it will be effectively handled for the purpose.

2935  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin a truly censorship resistance, Tallycoin raised fund for Canadian trucks on: February 07, 2022, 04:43:42 PM
The amount to be raised appears to have been updated, the previous target was achieved and it has been raised to 1,000,000,00 sats, yet strangely, donations continue to pour in. People are really supportive, and I'm convinced that bitcoiners have one of the purest hearts in the world.
As of this writing, 88% had been reached.

2936  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin a truly censorship resistance, Tallycoin raised fund for Canadian trucks on: February 07, 2022, 03:29:06 AM
The truckers convoy and the Gofundme platform didn't work out when millions of dollars were raised against the Covid 19 protest and people's free movement in Canada.
The truckers convoy protest has been going on for over a week now since many people have been forced to take Covid 19 vaccines and have been restricted from moving around. It was going well and had received a lot of support and donations until Gofundme halted the donations and claimed to refund money to donors if they specifically ask for it or the money will be redirected to charity after police declared it an unlawful activity.

Tallycoin[1], a platform built on the bitcoin blockchain with zero fees and a lightning network, was able to help raise donations from several people from different continents and several Satoshi's in less than 48 hours, totalling more than $250,000.

The objective was to raise 615,000,000 sats, and as of this writing, it has achieved 646,120,679 sats and counting.

2937  Other / Meta / Re: How Bitcointalk forum is giving Bitcoin another look in the minds of locals on: February 06, 2022, 03:33:40 AM

Suggestion
I'll like to use this singular opportunity to suggest that, real-life events that birth from this forum should be regarded as bitcoin oriented and therefore run on the TheBitcoinTalkShow. This would earn not just the forum but bitcoin some publicity it needs and also, teach to the people.
There is an opened thread by BtcTalkShow where anyone can freely recommend a thread, post or event to be hosted on the show, I think that will fasten up your idea to get feature on the show.

Here is the suggestion thread >>[BitcoinTalkShow]Best of January suggestions<<


Quote
1. Do we grasp the opportunities to enlighten ignorant forks on what bitcoin/cryptos is all about?
2. Do we really engage in any activity to teach locals about bitcoin/cryptos?
3. How has bitcoin helped someone close to you or even yourself?

Permit me to combine your questions together.
To be honest, those donations were significant and aided many families, but we all have limitations in terms of how we want to educate or transmit information, especially in an atmosphere where you must persuade people several times before they would listen to your counsel.
I have stopped evangelising some locals about the doings of bitcoin, why?
I have usually had challenges with two sets of people.

The average money wanderers: The expectation out there is very high in the sense that they want something that will yield faster results and a quick profit, ones the expectation doesn't go as planned, they give up.
The below-average will listen to you but will never want to take a step because of money hindrance to begin.
The easiest way to spread bitcoin/crypto are students, I discussed and chat with them at the given opportunity and the responses I get amaze me as some of them already know about what bitcoin is all about but not much detail.

2939  Other / Beginners & Help / Old phishing scam on the rise on centralized exchanges on: February 05, 2022, 12:29:03 PM
I forgot to post this yesterday after taking the screenshots. I'm not sure whether this is a new or old trick by scammers to steal from the exchange targeting users credentials but this particular one caught my eye which I decided to share.
CZ shared a phishing scam on Twitter on how scammers send users an SMS that contains an unknown website with a similar name as Binance that steal your details.



source: https://twitter.com/cz_binance/status/1489545612718579715?s=20&t=8c-U2-mptITD2GJyoNMwJQ

In my opinion, this trick may be outdated but there should be a reason why he decided to share this with everyone. This can happen to any other exchange.
2940  Economy / Economics / Re: Can Binance action revitalize Nigeria community? on: February 04, 2022, 06:29:20 PM
Binance (or any other exchange) doesn't care if your business is clean or dirty. As long as you pay them commissions, you are free to use the platform. If they don't do this freeze, they will lose the biggest customer in Africa for not meeting the demands of the legal authorities. In any case, it doesn't mean they like this incident where they have to get bad responses from affected customers and concerns to global customers.

If you don't have any proof to back up your claim, I'll assume it's a big fat lie.
No exchange would want to promote fraud, and no exchange would want to be fined and punished if they boycott her host community. Most exchanges, particularly Binance, ensure that they obey all country requirements, which is why they stop NGN fiat deposits and withdrawals from their exchange. No exchange would condone or enable fraud, period.
