I only focus on bitcoin, the Luna Foundation Guard (LFG) bought 80,081 BTC but now remain 313 BTC. I was kind of sentimental when the bitcoin was bought and Luna wanted to add more, but this shows again how algorithmic stables coin should be avoided, algorithmic stables coin are not stable coin just like in the past, they are unstable. UST is trading at $0.1269 presently, a coin that was $1 before.

Some phones do have features to hide, or at least make app less easy to spot, and it could be a thing to consider. Nevertheless, I figure one also has to be rather conscious, and in addition, gain a habit of deleting the apps from the list of recent apps or background running apps.
I have used this several times on my Android phone, hide the wallet app and password it.. But I have noticed to broswe more with phones and use phone more for daily online reasons while my PC is not connecting so much online than my phone, because of these, I moved my online wallet completely from phone to my PC. What is most risky that I do not like about phone is that people are using fingerprint for everything they want to access, making the risks of this kind of coin theft to be high, but following security way of handling phones can help just like you said.

Am not sure if Manchester United can get 3 points from the match they will be playing against Crystal Palace,   Manchester United are unpredictable, sometimes they play well and sometimes they play very poor. At times Crystal Palace perform well too,  Manchester United victory will only be a surprise to me.
Crystal Palace is not that good, but it suffered only 4 losses home matches this season out of 18 matches, Manchester United may need extra effort to win, but I can not bet on Manchester United because they are more disappointing than win. But if I should choose, Manchester United might be able to win Crystal Palace or it can be a draw match.

Well i think Everton should not be blame despite their struggle with the red card they strive extremely high to make a defeat on Brentford but it was too late as the match ended with Everton 2:3 loosing as against Brentford, but for the fact that they make the 2 goals into the net of of their opponent despite the red card makes them not to be highly disappointed by their fans, yes it see how they performed in the match and i will as well give kudos to Brentford for such determination.
Not that Everton team is blammed but just that they are at the hedge to fall of a cliff because Burnley now have chance, but little chance to leave the relegation teams and sink Everton there, but I think that will not be possible because it can only be possible if Burnley wins next match but Everton lose, because if Everton still win, it is not relegated. I do not even think Burnley can win Newcastle.

Even while Manchester City was loosing in today's game, they still had 3 points ahead of Liverpool and with a 5 goal difference before they equalised and pushed the gaol difference to 7. There is no way EPL would have put Liverpool on top of the table. West Ham did a good job, in fact Manchester City was lucky to have come by a draw in this game and there position as league champions would be shaking once again. Even at the moment it's a bit shaking but that's largely dependent on Liverpool winning the next game.
Wow! I have just checked it now, you are right, Manchester City has been on top of Liverpool ever since. About the goal difference, Manchester City had 3 goals more than Liverpool, not 5 (check again and correct me if I am wrong) before playing with West Ham, with Manchester City scored 2 more goals today, that will make it 5 goals difference, not 7. With this, what is most matters is that the last 2 matches Manchester City played makes Manchester City to have 10 goals which really helped and make them to be ahead, I think Manchester City worked towards having more goals because they have thought of what could happen today and tried and draw with West Ham. Let us see what Liverpool will scorenin their next match. Now, Manchester City still have more possibility to win the this season premier league.

I will not advice you to try all those mobile browsers like Chrome, Brave and also privacy browsers like Firefox on mobile, Firefox is only better for this site on computer, I mean for typing on this forum, aside that, Firefox is very good. I can only recommend you two browsers which will help your typing experience and also checking merit history to be enjoyable, they are Via if you do not much care about privacy. I will strongly recommend Duckduckgo for privacy. Typing on mobile is so frustrating but using any of those two browsers will give you a better experience. I will say I recommend Duckduckgo because it is a privacy browser but Via has more convenience, but privacy is good.

Some things don't deserve to be saved.  Either something survives on merit or it dies.  And Darwin is practically fucking the corpse now. 

This thing is dead.  It's meant to be this way.
I just checked the marketcap for Luna, I was surprised because I remember when the coins was still above $1, the marketcap was already less than $1 billion and it got to less than $400 million. Later I saw the price at 0.0003 and it is having a marketcap of over $2 billion presently. What kind of coin is Luna? It is having a high marketcap but plagued with devaluation. Also about UST that was $1 before, a stable coin which suppose to be stable but instead it was very volatile and falled below $0.2. It should not be about when the price of Luna will increase again, it should be about people to not trust altcoins. But with the marketcap Luna is having, the coin is not yet dead.

Someone in my Facebook friend list posted this, i am not sure if its true or not. "If you had bought the luna at its bottom $0.000001 for $1000 it would be worth more than $400K in just 3 days. I know people who made it this far and then there are people who lost millions of $$ in and was too afraid to get back in"

Can someone tell me where can I buy terra luna ??

Did you not read the rest of the topic?  People are getting shafted and you want to get involved because some random on social media is trying to create some hype, presumably to give themselves the opportunity to get out?  Think this through to conclusion, please.
That is true but it is what that has happened and some people have the kind of rigid mind but which can be stupid mind to still invest on that coin at its lowest price, all I know is that the coin grew 10x as of now.

sevilla are under pressure to come to Atletico Madrid's cage, they must be able to get as many points as possible to secure a top 4 position. but by looking at the statistics it seems very difficult for sevilla to get points at home to Atletico Madrid as they have not been able to win a game in their last three matches. maybe that makes sense for Sevilla to get the points next week when they take on Atletico club on their own ground.
If Sevilla needs that point, it will play better for Real Bestis, but it may still need it as we do not know what Real Madrid will play. Atletic Bilbao is not a weak club but Real Betis is playing with Real Madrid in the last match. Real Madrid has already won La Liga and will be preparing for Champions League, but I do not think Real Bestis can because of these win on that joyful day for Real Madrid to be given their won league cup. Also Sevilla is having 66 points and Real Best is having with 61 points. Sevilla deteriorated but Real Besties which was third before deteriorated more and have low probability to get qualified for Champions League.

The draw that Roma got against the team at the bottom of the standings was quite embarrassing for those who even though they really needed points to compete for tickets to the Europa League. I don't understand why Roma can be this bad, they were against a lower team playing with 10 men but they failed to win. they have been really inconsistent this season. with this result I think they have to give up the 6th position in the standings.
while Atalanta and Fiorentina have the same chance in my opinion to be able to occupy the 6th position in the standings even though Atalanta will play against AC Milan, but anything is still possible to happen.
Atlanta is also facing obstacle because AC Milan will not want Atlanta to win, this alone can boost Fiorentina to play better as it is likely to win Sampdoria. The seventh position is for Europa conference league but which is of lower rank to Europa league.

It will be a battle for top spot in the standings again today between Inter and Milan. If Cagliari should be an easy opponent for Inter, then today is a tough day for Milan. Atalanta could put up a fight. I don't think Milan will lose on home field, but they can draw with just one point. But I hope the gap between Inter and Milan won't close tonight.
Atlanta is competing with Florentina for Europa or Europa Conference Leagie, this will make competing with AC Milan to be a touch one, I am expecting AC Milan to win because it still needs it, but there is possibility of draw. Cagliari is not a tough club, this is what Inter is benefiting presently but AC Milan should prove that they are worthy of this competitive Seria A season.

I am not entirely sure if he should though. People are overrating Chiellini way too much. I believe that he should be retired by now, dude is 37 years old, next year he will be 38 years old and he is not fast anymore at all. and he is a defender and these days attackers are super fast so he is not going to be good enough to actually be good.
Weren't attackers fast in the past?  Cheesy

Congratulations to Liverpool for winning the FA Cup trophy after winning the match on penalties. Exciting play from both teams for 90 minutes and an additional 30 minutes. They managed to win after Chelsea's 7th kicker M Mount failed to score. One Liverpool job has been reduced, now they have to focus on 2 more competitions.
I will say congratulations to Liverpool but many people thought Liverpool is so strong that it could win Chelsea easily, the match led to penalty and Chelsea was not favoured as Mason Mount lost another penelty for Chelsea while Konstantinos Tsimikas scored the sixth penalty for Liverpool. It was an interesting match.

Do you believe that you can actually predict future events like horse racing and boxing match with the use of Pendulum.
This life is so fun now than thinking of the olden ways, I do not know much about pendulum or what you have called it, gambling should just be taken as fun. I do not bet on horse racing and sometimes I prefer not to bet on boxing. I bet on what I see as fun which is football and table tennis as I do watch it often and bet just what I can just afford to lose. I hope you can understand this than getting yourself into what is not.

What is your thoughts about this bill, reasoning how government are trying to inforce too much task in cryptocurrency? I feel its not proper to put the responsibility of paying the Country's half IMF debt on cryptocurrency and foreign assets alone.
It is true it will discourage traders, crypto traders will be among, but it will also be a way some crypto traders will like to look for ways to trade cryptocurrencies in a way they will not be taxed by bypassing tax. This will also only applies to those using centralized exchanges. I am still thinking that some exchanges that do not make kyc necessary to people to certain withdrawal limit will move to those exchanges and use noncustododial means to exchange their cryptocurrencies in a way to evade tax. If citizens are taxed too much, they will find alternatives which is even not far from them if they know how to do it.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seemed that most people thought $30K would hold (myself included),
I have never doubted that before, only what I doubt is for the price to go below last two halving all-time-high price which was in December 2017, which has never happened before, which means it is highly unlikely that bitcoin price will go below $19600

Smiley
I'm still struggling to see how a crypto winter is coming, I already feel like we've been in one for 12 months already. Either that, or price will have to go significantly lower or in order to shake out strong hands.
There is nothing coming than bull market, even if the price decreases further, the price will rise again. There is no best time to buy bitcoin recently than now. Bitcoin never gets liquidated but all-time-high is highly likely.
2954  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinbase blackout on: May 14, 2022, 12:59:40 PM
Actually Coinbase also have non custodial wallet named as "Coinbase wallet", but it's closed source. The other "Coinbase" is centralized wallet, you can buy or sell crypto, the last is "Coinbase pro" which is a centralized exchange.
A close source wallet is not good to be used but there are other reasons not to use Coinbase wallet which is noncustododial. I know the OP is more about Coinbase itself and not coinbase noncustododial wallet. The more people know about coinbase, the more they are directed to Coinbase custodial wallet and exchange which is what I am not really happy about except for those that already know what not having private key means that they are giving the control of their coins to Coinbase.
2955  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinbase blackout on: May 14, 2022, 08:37:53 AM
I am not a user of Coinbase so I am not familiar with their insurance, if there's any. But with their loss, I think, they have options how to get back on their feet. They have been in this industry for so long they already know what to do for bugs and other attacks on their system.
Why ain't you a user of Coinbase? Because they are custodial wallet and exchange company?

If I can remember vividly, the best wallet I have ever thought before was coinbase, but later I knew it was because I was a newbie and I did not know much about cryptocurrencies. Coinbase is a centralized wallet and exchange and a good reason not to use it for any type of holding which is related to cryptocurrencies.
2956  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: El Salvador has become the first country to make #Bitcoin legal tender! on: May 14, 2022, 08:25:35 AM
One thing we must understand is the fact that El Salvador is not in for Bitcoin as an investment but as a currency and this is why the President legalized it as a currency that will serve as an alternative to traditional currency, that is why El Salvador never mind the price of Bitcoin anytime their feel like adding Bitcoin to the country Bitcoin reserve.
So their more interested in the quantity of Bitcoin which is what the El Salvador Bitcoin law is calculated on and not on its US dollar values. So don't use Bitcoin price to judge El Salvador's performance in terms of development as Bitcoin price is always volatile.
I too will say that, for anyone not to use the recent price decline of bitcoin to make wrong conclusion, bitcoin will rise again. But we that are not even in El Salvador, I have used bitcoin in making payments before many times, though it will be less often to if I am in El Salvador because I will make use of bitcoin for payment more often directly which will help me not converting my bitcoin first to fiiat because I do not have a lot in fiat, I have it in bitcoin.

El Salvador made bitcoin a legal tender, but in a way it is not compulsory for citizens, I have said this here countless numbers of times but some people do not want to understand this fact, yof Salvadorans like, they should not accept accept to receive bitcoin payment, they should accept USD instead, as simple ty as that, and what most of their citizens is doing but which can not change El Salvadorans to accept bitcoin if they want.

Nayib Bukele which is El Salvador president did not just made bitcoin a legal tender, his primary aim is that he knows bitcoin is an investment means, that is just the truth and it is obvious for us too see, that was why he bought bitcoin recently when the price falled. Citizens also can buy bitcoin and hold it in a way no one will say anything because El Salvador accept its citizens to buy and sell it if they want.

This isn't the first time DeFi and algorithmic token resulted in a disaster, and not the last one.
That is true, it has not been the first time algorithmic stables coin are like this, they are not stable, if anyone wants to go for a stable coin, it is better to go for the ones that are backed by fiat like dollar, out of the four types of stable coin, algorithmic ones are the worse and they are not stable coins but unstable, not that they are only unstable, they are unstable in a way the price will decrease significantly. I saw TerraUST at $0.9 and it decreased further to $0.7 and them to less than $1, UST which is TerraUSD is now at $0.1638, that is definitely not a stable coin.
2958  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: May 13, 2022, 08:31:46 AM
Arsenal will play their next two matches against Newcastle and Everton. I would say these two teams are very difficult for Arsenal. Newcastle are now quite a stable team. On the other hand, the performance of Everton in the last few matches has surprised me a lot. They have beaten strong teams like Manchester United and Chelsea. And so it is foolish to assume that Arsenal will win easily with Everton. Tottenham still have a chance to qualify for the Champions League. However, they must win the next two matches
These are both clubs that performed well to leave among the relegating clubs and move up higher, they are both tough clubs to play with right now, I mean Newcastle and Everton. Newcastle is no more relegating this season but Everton is still at the hedge of relegation and this can make the teams of the club to play with high potential, it woild be a difficult match. Tottenham is having match with Brunley and Norwish, both clubs should be an easy win for Tottenham, especially Norwish, but Burnley match can be a little difficult as it will not want Leeds or Watford to overtake, but it should not be a hard match for Tottenham.

Offline wallets are most secure, a good idea is to transfer just small amount from offline wallet to online wallet if you see online wallet necessary for making transaction often or get a hardware wallet which is cold wallet that you can use often for making transaction. If you need online wallet for making transaction, it is not good to use a mobile phone wallet, use a desktop wallet that you do not carry about like phones and that is safe from malware.

‘Crypto muggings’: thieves in London target digital investors by taking phones

Quote
Thieves are targeting digital currency investors on the street in a wave of “crypto muggings”, police have warned, with victims reporting that thousands of pounds have been stolen after their mobile phones were seized.

Quote
One victim reported they had been trying to order an Uber near London’s Liverpool Street station when muggers forced them to hand over their phone. While the gang eventually gave the phone back, the victim later realised that £5,000-worth of ethereum digital currency was missing from their account with the crypto investing platform Coinbase.

Quote
In another case, a man was approached by a group of people offering to sell him cocaine and agreed to go down an alley with them to do the deal. The men offered to type a number into his phone but instead accessed his cryptocurrency account, holding him against a wall and forcing him to unlock a smartphone app with facial verification. They transferred £6,000-worth of ripple, another digital currency, out of his account.

Quote
A third victim said he had been vomiting under a bridge when a mugger forced him to unlock his phone using a fingerprint, then changed his security settings and stole £28,700,

Quote
In another case, a victim told police that his cards and phone were pickpocketed after an evening at the pub, with £10,000 later stolen from their account with the investing platform Crypto.com. The victim was using his phone in the pub and believed thieves saw him type in his account pin, the report said.

These mugglers will know that crypto transactions are not reversible and if crypto wallet is set up properly, it will be very difficult to trace the muggler after the attack. People should not be telling people of the bitcoin and altcoins they have because no one can be trusted, anyone can send someone to attack. This has just been the start, there are many other harmful ways there can be people that can be physically attacked to steal cryptocurrencies from them, some might lead to wound or beyond. Let us be careful.

Do not get scared. This is an opportunity for new investor to buy and get rich later. Don't ask me, if I am selling my 1.1 million Bitcoin. Just buy some today and you will be surprized later next month.
Maybe buying now can be profitable by next month but next month is too short to determine if profit will be made by investing now, but I know next two years will be of good profit making, buying now is not a bad idea at all because bitcoin price will rise.

Do not think Bitcoin value will go to Zero and sell all your Bitcoin. Then the  Bitcoin  Whales will buy your Bitcoin cheaper because you are scared. There after they will become more rich and you will cry loudly saying, ' why didn't I hodl my BTC ?
I am not that old to crypto but what I have known is that bitcoin can never even gotten to $10000 not to talk of 0 which is never possible. All what I am seeing right now is that bitcoin will rise and reach six digits by 2025.
