We have our different wants about cryptocurrency either some wanted it to replace fiat or someone would want the other way around but yeah this kind of wants of other people do making it more complicated because, I, myself I do wanted to have them both coexisted and functioning well. I just do hope that we should see these two currency existed on their own means, uses and importance because it is so impossible that crypto will replace fiat and the same goes with fiat to crypto right. Let's just enjoy the benefits of the existence of these two currencies.
So far I don't think that bitcoin is ready to replace fiat in fact its adoption has increased tremendously since bitcoin was introduced to the world. Bitcoin still has some flaws and still needs some improvement where the main thing I think about is scalability and fluctuating transaction fees when the mempool is very congested.

But to be honest, I would prefer bitcoin over fiat if my country's government had legalized it as legal tender. Transaction security as well as the privacy it allows are other factors that favor bitcoin better than other centralized financial systems. But as long as the government has not ratified it as currency then I will not violate it.

I don't think bitcoin was created against governments and the centralized government financial system that has been around for years. Bitcoin is an innovative payment network and a new currency created to meet the privacy needs of users that have not been obtained from a centralized financial system.

Bitcoin can be used as an alternative means of payment for anyone depending on the legality of bitcoin in our country regardless we also have fiat or other crypto currencies. Other than that, I think bitcoin has never failed even though many countries have banned it as a means of payment.
2983  Economy / Economics / Re: What's happening in Canada ? on: February 17, 2022, 03:54:30 PM
From some of the news that I read, actually the conflict that occurred was only between the government and the truck drivers who carried out the convoy, and I didn't see it as a conflict that might spread to all regions in Canada, it is true that if the government would freeze the bank accounts of the protesters, but that doesn't mean other Canadians will withdraw all their fiat money from banks,  we still need conventional banks in that case, even if there is a complete adoption of bitcoin in the country, this is just my opinion because I saw what you say currently have no credible sources in my opinion.
Adoption is expected and it will only provide greater opportunities for Canadians to use a decentralized currency (bitcoin). Adoption is not meant to fight the dictatorship of the government but it is the need for a better financial system than the fiat system. Canadians now have the option of using bitcoin although not all of them want to use bitcoin as a means of payment for various reasons.

If these protests can influence the government's decision to regulate bitcoin, then I'm sure we won't see a very negative impact on the price. But I hope this is a good start for bitcoin in Canada as a means of payment allowed by the government.

No, even if signature campaigns can last for 1-2 years, I think one day they will stop. Signature campaigning is not a permanent job although I believe the salary could be higher or equal to the salary of a government employee in my country. Call it a chipmixer signature campaign, they pay a maximum of $1200 for each eligible participant per month, but I'm sure many of them won't quit their main job just because the pay is higher than their main job.

Signature campaign can indeed help many things in my life to fulfill several needs. But I can't rely entirely on signature campaign because I believe these are promotions that have a breaking point if the owner or site feels it's time. So the main work I will still do even though sometimes the pay is lower than the signature campaign.

Manchester United have been getting draws for two weeks in a row. And tomorrow night, there is an important game for them to put an end to this poor form which is going to be against Brighton. Brighton are not a team to be underestimated above all else. They haven't been losing in the league for seven weeks in a row. They are going to be motivated to get a positive result in this game because they know how much bad Manchester United are now. However, we might finally see Manchester United winning a game by at least one goal. They really need this and they are capable of it too. They just need to be better especially in defense.
I know there is an uphill task for Manchester United to end their poor form so far. Winning now is the most important thing if they want to qualify for the Champions League next season because I believe this season they will also fail in the Champions League even though there is a chance to qualify for the quarter-finals.

So far Tottenham, Arsenal, Wolves and West Ham are the biggest threats that could derail Manchester United from qualifying for the Champions League next season. Compared to Manchester United, I think Arsenal will have a great chance to finish in 4th place this season if they don't lose their good form in the rest of the season. I'm not saying Manchester United are bad, but they just failed to prove their quality in a lot of match.
2988  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- Group Stage! on: February 14, 2022, 06:56:54 PM
Actually, I really don't think this team has any chances against Liverpool. I think in that match Liverpool is going to dominate over their opponent. And they have recent form also does not look really good which can give them any hope. Liverpool is going to win this match but Liverpool also should not underestimate their opponent because we all know what that can lead to.
Liverpool and Inter can both win the match and have the same chance in the 2nd leg of the round of 16. No one guessed who would qualify easily, but Liverpool were ahead of Inter. I do not underestimate Inter and their ability to win match, but in the last few matches Inter have experienced a decline in performance so that they have lost their place in the main position of the Serie A standings.

If we talk about chances, then Liverpool should also have a good chance of winning the match vs Inter in the Champions League considering Liverpool have quite a number of top players to rely on. The Liverpool striker is very dangerous for the Inter defence, but this is just a comparison that probably won't have much effect on the outcome of the match.
2989  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: February 14, 2022, 06:33:31 PM
I think Brighton had a good match to be honest because they really seemed to dominate in the match. Maybe 'dominate' is not the word, but today certainly had control over the match. They have the ball in their possession most of the time and really seemed in control overall.
I'm sure something different will happen in the next game against Manchester United. For some reason I believe Manchester United will win this match even though in the last few matches Manchester United has not been too satisfying.

Brighton are a strong team, but they can't always benefit from the way they play. Teams like this rely on a strong counter-attack and defense to earn points in many matches against top teams. Manchester United should press them early and not let Brighton have more of the ball, it will be a good win for Manchester United in their bid to reach the top 4.

There are 374 posts made per post deleted and I thought it was me, will you please enlighten this matter?
This means that the number of posts that you create is divided by the number of posts that are deleted and you will get the average value like this (5236 :14 = 374). It can also be said the number of posts created per deleted post assuming you get 1 post deletion for every 374 posts you make. That is the average value and will change as the number of posts deleted by moderators increases.

Will Manchester United achieve another draw in this match? after being held to a 1-1 draw by Burnley the previous week, but there are still 35 minutes remaining for coach Ralf Rangnick to change Manchester United's formation and attack more.
Yes, a draw is the final result of today's game. Once again Manchester United failed to get full points and became the second draw in the last 2 matches. Manchester United had at least 2 good chances to score in the second half, but Forster was lucky enough to thwart them. Ronaldo's goal was also disallowed for offside, so Manchester United had to settle for a draw until the end of the match.

Anyway I think both teams really deserved to share the points today because Southamton and Manchester United both had chances to score. It was a good game and I don't think anyone should be blamed. Because Manchester United drew, West Ham are still in 4th position even though with the same points. Now Arsenal and Tottenham can take advantage of this draw.

Tidak Gan , Saya ingin Maju dan Sukses dari Crypto !
Itu wajar, tapi pastikan keinginan dan usaha agan juga bisa seimbang karena sukses butuh proses yang panjang.

Saya akan belajar dari kesalahan dulu, walaupun benar pekerjaan bisa di tiru dan rejeki orang itu berbeda-beda namun saya yakin dan Optimis di sini saya pasti bisa.
Memang tidak mudah, tetapi jika kita mau berusaha dan Berdo'a , Yakin Allah akan memberikan jalan.. Entah dari mana itu datangnya ?!
Sebenarnya saya hanya ingin tahu apa yang agan minati di crypto, apakah ngebounty atau apakah investasi atau apakah trading. Minat biasanya akan lebih mendorong seseorang memantapkan dirinya dengan pengetahuan dan terus belajar. Mudah atau tidak mudahnya proses belajar itu tergantung pada diri kita sendiri juga gan karena selain doa maka konsistensi dan pantang nyerah itu akan membuahkan hasil meski tidak instan. Kita semua beranjak dari dasar juga dan hingga sekarang masih juga harus belajar. Jadi jangan nyerah dan tetap semangat. 
2993  Local / Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian) / Re: Thailand Sudah Mulai, Indonesia Kapan..??? on: February 12, 2022, 10:38:59 AM
Thailand dan Indonesia sama-sama belum meresmikan rencana ini untuk diluncurkan berdasarkan berita yang ditautkan oleh OP. Thailand bisa jadi lebih mungkin akan melakukan itu lebih cepat berdasarkan pernyataan pemerintah mereka yang mendukung legalitas mata uang digital sebagai alat pembayaran namun masih belum ada tanggal pasti. Jadi kesimpulannya masih sama-sama belum resmi karena realisasinya belum jelas.

Yang mau di resmikan Thailand sebenarnya CBDC nya, tapi sekarang pembahasannya kenapa sudah mengarah ke legalitas bitcoin? Saya pikir mereka belum merencanakan bitcoin disahkan sebagai alat pembayaran karena mereka baru berencana melegalkan TAT melalui bank centralnya. Jadi kalau OP mau bahas legalitas bitcoin dan mungkin membandingkan dengan negara lain rasanya sudah off topic.

PSG have good advantage faced Renner on early week because get many days take rest before facing with Real Madrid on champion league, I think on Ligue 1 match against Renner I think will possibility use second player, all important player like Messi, Neymar, Mbappe and Veratti will take bench or without on line up team. Pocchetino will give good touch on first leg against Real Madrid on champion league because they have got many star player and hope take to final step.
The Champions League will take place in the middle of the week or 4 days after the match vs. Rennes is over. Enough time to recover the fitness of the players in my opinion after today's match. Check the lineup, it looks like Pochettino doesn't want to do a lot of rotation in this match. Messi, Mbappe and other main players started from the first half and I think they are also looking to win.

The 24th week in the league has started with the PSG - Rennes game. PSG are very highly the favourite team here but who knows maybe Rennes might surprise us. We see Mbappe and Messi both in the starting eleven now and this is an extra power for the team in this game. I remember that Rennes defeated PSG by 2-0 in their home game. Maybe it could be the time to have revenge on them for PSG. After erasing Lille by 5-1, they have boosted their morale a great deal in the end.
So far PSG and Rennes have not managed to score a goal even though 35 minutes have now passed. Not sure if Messi can score today but he has the chance to add to his Ligue 1 goalscoring record with PSG this match after he scored his second in the previous match.
2995  Economy / Economics / Re: Your opinion on side jobs on: February 11, 2022, 08:20:17 PM
If I was to define a side job I will simply say it's a job that complements once passion and career. It is very possible for a side job to be more lucrative than once passion but because it's something done for the money it's a side job. For my my passion is not driven because I need the money but because I want to serve humanity but when it comes to side job I would consider the the returns first. So for me if side job pays more better so I can use the return to pursue my career and serve humanity
Both types of work are sources of income, so I think we can do it without interfering with either one. I define a side job as something that fills my spare time as well as an effort to get what I want when I can't afford the income at my main job.

A person may still earn 10x more from a side job compared to their actual job, but it depends on what kind of work they do. A friend I know is a miner, he has his main job as a teacher but still does these two jobs just to appreciate his time in a career. Obviously mining is more profitable on his part, but I've never seen him complain about his main job as a teacher. Even a side job can do more than just a passion and a hobby.
2996  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Russia and central Bank agreed to legalize cryptocurrency as a form of currency on: February 10, 2022, 08:22:18 PM
I read the news carefully and I think this is still a proposal that the government may or may not approve in the near future. I would prefer countries to regulate bitcoin if they don't legalize it as a legal currency. Much more profitable for the government than having to ban it.

This news has made bitcoin fundamentals stronger which we expect will see a rise in price. Obviously not everyone in Russia likes bitcoin even within the government itself, but their desire to legalize some of bitcoin's functions should be rewarded rather than banned. The government will benefit from this legalization, but I think it's still a matter of time.

People will choose Bilbao since it proved how hard they was against big teams but their gameplay is different vs weaker ones. There is also 2 legs in the semi-final which make it more unpredictable. I am supporting also Bilbao but I won't be surprised if I see another result.
Different results of course can still be expected because both teams have to play 2 times (home-away) in this phase. Although Bilbao appeared convincing, Valencia should not be underestimated. Anything is possible in those 2 games, but Bilbao are good to lead all the way to the final.

Now 15 minutes to the match. If Bilbao win the first leg today then I want them to be in the final vs Real Betis. It seems that it is a worthy opponent for the title.
2998  Economy / Economics / Re: Russia to make bitcoin a currency on: February 10, 2022, 07:49:26 PM
Bitcoin is not a foreign currency, anything about bitcoin is not foreign, it is decentralized and available to the world not certain countries. Russian also still accept some international currencies like USD, EURO and probably YUAN, but it is like they are not accepting USD again but I a not sure.
Any currency whose circulation is prohibited in your country will be referred to as a foreign currency such as USD, Pounds, or the fiat currency of another country you are familiar with. So far I don't know about the currency of any country to use as legal tender in Russia without having to convert it to Russian Ruble. But bitcoin is certainly something different despite being called a currency.

Bitcoin is known by another name, namely internet money which is not in physical form, without a central authority controlling it so that everyone can use it as a means of payment regardless of how the government regulates it. Bitcoin is still called a foreign currency in my country although currently the regulations are limited to assets that can be traded not as a currency.
2999  Economy / Economics / Re: Russia to make bitcoin a currency on: February 10, 2022, 07:05:19 PM
I am familiar to what happened to china, India and other countries where they ban and unban crypto but not to this one on Russia. This can be their first move if ever their plans came true and i hope they will stick on it.
Russia has been known to be a very strict country with foreign currencies in my opinion but there is still a possibility that its attitude will change towards crypto especially bitcoin. There are pros and cons so far and I think both are still in the proposal stage.

The timeline for news of proposed crypto bans and legalizations is so close that it creates confusion for most people. While ban proposals have had an impact on market fluctuations and support proposals to legalize crypto have strengthened the market. It's been almost less than a month so we really need to verify it before come to a decision. I feel it will be good for adoption growth if Russia legalizes it, it will be faster than imagined.

Tough match for Napoli and Inter at the weekend. A draw I think will be very beneficial for AC Milan, which is currently only 1 point adrift of Inter. If this match ends in a draw then there is a possibility that AC Milan leads the standings while Inter is 1 match behind from Milan and Napoli.

Inter were beaten by AC Milan in the previous match where Milan won a tough match with enthusiasm. Napoli, who has the same performance, is also expected to make the competition for the title this season even tighter, where a win or a draw at the weekend will be decisive. I hope Napoli can overcome Inter even though it won't be easy.
