301  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's the possibility of discovering a memecoin that could change your life? on: January 18, 2024, 06:22:01 PM

I've been contemplating this, reminiscing about previous years when memecoins like Shiba, Doge, and Pepe turned some people into millionaires overnight. Back then, I was a novice and missed out on those meme surges. This year, armed with more experience, I ventured into memes like Myro, Bonk, Rats, and Sats.

Honestly, I did make some money trading those, but not the life-changing fortune I aspire to. So, I'm still on the lookout for that meme opportunity that could turn my vacation dream into reality! 😄 Recently, there's been a buzz around $Troll and $Smiley, and I thought of throwing the question here.

The momentum appears robust, with indirect support from Elon Musk for $Troll, while $Smiley boasts a large and supportive community. I'm pondering if it could pull off another Doge. Any meme experts here? What's your perspective on this?
Memecoins could really be able to make that huge change into your life when it comes on monetary aspect but it would really be needing that extreme luck and even with less research considering that these projects
are really that community driven or simply being that lead up by extreme hype. Im one of those investors of $MYRO when it was really just that starting but the sad thing that i did make out some exit
on the time that it do make up that x2 hit and securing the profit but now the price had climbed up almost x30 on which it did really bring out that kind of huge regret on what i have done earlier.
I wasnt been able to make some re-entry into its price on which i have thought that it is really just that only there but it turns out that it did pumped even more.

No on really knows on what the future brings or on what would be the things that could happen ahead on which there's no way that you could be able to point out
on which project/meme that you would really be able to make yourself having that kind of life changing opportunity on which we know that this is something
that it isnt really that easy to find out such thing in the first place.
302  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does the tension make you take risk that are sometimes worth it? on: January 17, 2024, 06:30:54 PM
We all know that gambling sometimes can be fun and something not, even if we  blatantly claim here that we do gamble alone for the fun purpose 🙄🙄. Truth be told majority of person actually gamble because of the possibility that they can earn some profits from the act and as we all know it , not all the time the end result is what we expected. Although am not an addicted gambler but I can say I do my fair share of gambling activities sometimes and what I have observed is that sometimes I actually make some hard calls that turn out to be fruitful when ever am tenced but the results may differ for different individuals though.

So I would like to know your own experience when making or taking risk in gambling under pressure.
Gambling is not enjoyable in my opinion if there is no risk involved. A gambler will find the true joy of gambling when he takes the risk. If I place a normal bet there is no excitement for me which is why I like to place those high stakes. So that I change in victory or defeat. Moreover, those who do not take risk in gambling have no chance to get more money in gambling. In gambling, either winning or losing is certain. Whatever we say the main purpose of gambling is to earn money so I am quite comfortable with gambling with high risk. For all gamblers, the pleasure lies in enjoying the tension that is bound to work during gambling.
If there's no risks involved then its not gambling at all because if we do talk about gambling then it would really be that basically pertains into the things on which you would really be needing to take risks
for you to earn something and this is how it do basically works and it is really just that in default. On the time that you are really that having that tension then it could really be caused into various
conditions or situations on which you might really be that thinking on trying out to divert or changed up your earlier decisions on which you would really be having those kind of thoughts that you should really be that
betting according into what you are thinking but since you have set earlier plans and targets then some people would really be sticking into that. One for the most important things that you do experience
in gambling is on having that fun and not really getting that being stressful or having that tension. Somewhat it cant really be just avoided or something inevitable if we do speak about
those real time possible scenarios so it doesnt matter much though.
303  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoins and other cryptos will never become mainstream before... on: January 17, 2024, 04:59:21 PM
Until the basic laws of physics are repealed, there will be no way a decentralized infrastructure will scale to the level needed to truly take on the world-wide credit card infrastructure (which is just a start in taking over currency generally).

And even centralized cryptocurrencies using blockchain are too slow and expensive to scale to this level. XRP touts aspirational numbers of "a thousand transactions a second" when a real competitor would need to be several million transactions a second. There's simply no way you can do this with blockchain, and you'd instead need to use a non-blockchain paradigm like Haypenny.

Blockchain is a great platform for meme investments like Bitcoin or NFTs, but it's not suitable as a real, mainstream currency and never will be.

I think decentralized cryptocurrencies can scale to the level of VISA/Mastercard via the use of an off-chain scaling solution (aka Layer-Two). The only problem is that you still need to pay an on-chain fee (usually high) to open/close channels. If there was a way to circumvent that, Bitcoin and other decentralized cryptocurrencies would be on a road towards massive adoption worldwide. I've been doing some "digging" and found a Bitcoin L2 network called "Ark". It's privacy-focused and doesn't require you to pay on-chain fees to interact with it. Maybe someday the Lightning Network will use this technique? I hope so, especially when there's huge interest into BTC and altcoins.

I'd bet 10 years from now, BTC would've already solved its scaling issues without sacrificing decentralization. The future is not set, so anything's possible. Grin
If LN would really be that something could be finalized or something that could really be able to enhanced out then pretty sure it would be that something that will really be solving out that kind of problem.
When it comes to utility then we do know that people would really be liking to see on how Bitcoin would really be integrated when we do speak about payment option. Now that we've seen that
Bitcoin ETF's had been that approved then it would really be that safe to assume that adoption rate and recognition did really reach out on a point that it is really that that
getting that much attention yet it has come through this.

Never become a mainstream? Possible but we do know that it could really be that something having that utility and plus we wont really be that becoming so big
if there would be having no kind of interest and adoption of course.
304  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: January 17, 2024, 11:37:31 AM
Overall 2023 was a good year for bitcoin and bitcoiners.
Yes, it's relatable to those who took the very opportunity of starting up their Bitcoin journey and also those who kept consistent in their Bitcoin accumulation. The market was open to everyone but not everyone seized the opportunity, so putting into consideration the way the market is moving it will also accept more investors, likely few months after the halving then we expect to experience an ATH, which may not be the perfect spot to hop in.
2023 was a good year for Bitcoin and Bitcoiners. I had the opportunity to join this forum in 2023 to learn about Bitcoin, and it has helped me to understand Bitcoin and also start accumulating Bitcoin with the DCA strategy at regular intervals. The DCA strategy has always been helpful to me when I'm accumulating Bitcoin because it helps me to take care of my financial needs. We are expecting 2024 to be better than 2023 for Bitcoin and Bitcoiners, because the spot Bitcoin ETF was approved last week, and the Bitcoin halving will also happen this year.
Yes I agree with you. I am new to Bitcoin. According to your information, the year 2023 was very good for Bitcoin and Bitcoin users. But for the last 7 days, Bitcoin has been going down, that is, the beginning of 2024 has not been good at all.
2023 was a good year for Bitcoiners because they accumulated Bitcoin at a low price. Bitcoin is not bad in 2024 just because the price of Bitcoin has been low in the last 7 days, it is an opportunity to accumulate Bitcoin at a low price because, since the beginning of 2024, Bitcoin price has been in an upward trend.

I would suggest that BTC has been in an upward trend since late 2022, and sure maybe we were a bit uncertain in early 2023 and a few other points in 2023 if we might end up revisiting the lows of 2022.. but in the end the trend remained upward, and has been ever siince, even thogh there have been a few decently sized corrections along the way.. and even this latest one in 2024 was nearly 20% from $49k to $41.5k-ish.
For those people who do really know on how to read up charts and able to compare in between months and years in regarding about plotting out those points then you would really be able to find that
it is really that in upward movement but thing here is that people wouldnt really be minding about those increments but rather they are really that focusing that much on whats the price in front of them.
If they are expecting $50k then having this current price of 40k+ would really be just that low and goes on when we hit against on 50k+ and it would continue.

They would only realize thingso n the time that they've seen that theyre left behind and have those regrets that they should have hold or bought more on last year specially when the price
hits up $15k on which we can all say that this is really the sweetest spot.
305  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is your advised for being a trader? on: January 17, 2024, 01:44:01 AM
There’s no easy money in trading knowing you are at high risk of losing than winning most particularly for beginner traders as they are not supposed to jump into trading just to satisfy their greed and high emotions. It takes even years before you can say you can be a good and reliable trader, hence acquiring knowledge and enhancing skills and strategies should be given topmost priority before you take risk in trading. And with the experiences learned from those early traders, we can always try to trade using demo account at first so we will be exposed as to how live trading scenario is taking place.
One of the most common wrong perception into those people who had been planning on trying out to touch up trading field is that they do really believe that trading is really just that an easy thing without even trying out to realize that it was never been that easy. It is really just that there are people who are really that mindful when it comes to things when its already been that experienced. Its not a simple path to take and its never been
that too easy for you to have grasps out of it. It is really just that takes a matter of time before you could really be able to take some grasps on everything and this is why it would be important
that you should really know on what you should really gonna do realistically.

Dont make yourself that be having that boost up when it comes to things because once you do get that kind of self confidence then this is where mistakes would really came from.
This is why it would really be always best that you should really be that realistic on the things that you are tending to deal with. Dont rush up on making money
or simply being that greedy yet this one is never been that recommendable.
306  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are successful gamblers seen as addicts? on: January 16, 2024, 09:55:12 PM
I wish I could have posted this in a more better place but since the thoughts came from gambling addiction, I thought it wise to ask this question over here and I hope we can discuss and get this straight.

Just as the tittle already ask, I really want to know if people who are successful in gambling also seen as addicts because I believe  for one to be successful in gambling or whatever they choose to do, there must be some good amount  of time and effort invested in it as well as money and we know that a successful  gambler must have invested  both time, effort and even money to make any reasonable  winning and these also are features of an addict as there are always excessive time spent on a betting site.

Now let's be sincere, will you also classify a successful gambler as an addict?
Yes, he also gets addicted to gambling but here the question is, is this addiction a fruit full or abusive of my thoughts and opinion addiction is of two types one is a fruitfull in which a gambler invests all his time and money and makes a great fund in the last and the second is that when he put his efforts and in the last, he lose all his fund and goes to debt in this condition the addiction is very harmful and we should take care of this. We all need to be addicted to gambling but the fruitful one will give us more and more profits.
Those who can control themselves in gambling are not called addictive gamblers. A responsible gambler is successful in gambling because they understand the risk factors and know all the ways in investing money. But addicted gamblers who do not know how to take care of themselves usually have more greed at work. After winning once bet again without understanding anything and then loses. But after successful gamblers win take a break and then move on gambling addiction to gambling can never be productive as it leads to more losses.
Controlling oneself is a crucial part of gaming since it helps us to stay healthy as gamblers not gambling too excessively. The wise gambling would always bear their loses when they make mistakes that led to loses or when there luck is not sufficient to give them a winning. This is why we need to be exercise patience as gamblers. That is the only way we can survive the market and not have any problem with ourselves. When we can take proper control of ourselves as gamblers especially during decision making, we could likely become  addicted gamblers when we put in too much pressure and efforts to win.
And this is where people do really fail on doing so because to those people who do end up on getting addicted with gambling are to those people who cant really be able to have that kind of control towards themselves
on which it would really be that causing for them to make those actions on which they didnt bothered on rethinking on what are the possible effects that it could give into a certain individual.
When it comes into the talks about successful gamblers are seen as addicts? Somewhat partially true on which we do know that people do have those kind of realizations on the time
that they would really be able to commit out such mistake on which they will really be learning up something basing into those conditions that they are really that into.
Addiction is something can be avoided if you do really just find yourself that responsible towards your gambling actions.
307  Economy / Economics / Re: The power of investment choices on: January 16, 2024, 07:25:57 PM
It's not enough having an investment plan, knowing the right choice to make for every investment defines the investor better. Take for example jumping on every new coin we find on reputable exchange might not be enough guarantee that coin will do well in the future.

Some coin might have good Supply but low liquidity, some might have high market capitalisation but very poor volatility. Although it's hard to predict the accuracy of a coin performance in the near future this why it is always advised to stick to the known which is BTC.

Another option is to spread ones portfolio amongst different coins but ensuring the have a greater percentage in projects with a visible future. It is better to win small and lose less than lose more and win less
When it comes on hitting up yourself with the right project then this is something that the main challenge that we are facing all because we do know that there's no way that we could really be able to know on which one
would really be performing well in the future. Its true that even if you do see a project which does have a good potential but it wont really be having some good community support or demand then it would simply die
and wither away. There are projects which are shit but its getting pumped comparing into those projects who do have that actual utility on which it is really just that sucks on community support and decisions
but well this is how this market works and behaves on which it would really be just that normal that there would really be having those kind of switches.

Important thing is that you should really know on how to go with the flow, or else you would really be ending up on getting those kind of mistakes on which most people or investors do.
If you do want to survive into this market then you should really be that versatile and could be able to make adjustments as much as you could whatever the
condition that you would really be able to encounter.
308  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Paying house rent with bitcoin is it appropriate? on: January 16, 2024, 06:24:15 PM
Glancing through the article https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-rent-agreement-argentina-landlord-tenant one would conclude adoption is striving in Argentina. Paying for a house with bitcoin sounds to me a mistake or lack of financial knowledge. Bitcoin is better than Fiat. Bitcoin increases in value and fiat faces inflation. Why then would one spend Bitcoin instead of fiat on a house rent which may expire in few years? Accommodating the Bitcoin can birth the person more money to pay his next house rent. But fiat wouldn't add any interest in the bank. Moreover the house owner will not hold the Bitcoin.


Bitcoin was created or meant of its existence on having that p2p transaction on which there would really be no 3rd party intervention on which it isnt really that bad for it to be used into these kind of transactions as long both parties do really have that kind of agreement on which it would really be totally that giving that real essence of its existence. Although people would really be that skeptical on doing it because we do know that when it comes to increasing value then we do really know that it could really that possibly be able to increase into the future years to come on which it would be that normal that we would really be having those impressions that it is really just that a waste if we would really be making use of it on the time that we could really be able to make use when it comes to fiat on which i could say that it is really just that right that as much as possible
then we could really be able to make use of it and would be more worth if we would be holding our Bitcoin and make use of fiat as much as possible even into these kind of casual transactions on which it would be
much more worth or better.

310  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can anyone be a Bitcoin speculation expert? on: January 15, 2024, 08:58:16 PM
Well, there are some, but being an expert does not guarantee that you will always be right, I would not even say in more than 90% of the predictions, due to the volatility of the bitcoin market. But there are people who are experts in technical analysis, who have been analysing the evolution of the bitcoin price for many years, as well as other markets, and who in principle have a higher percentage of reliability than the predictions of the rest.
If you mean to say experts, there are those who claimed to be bitcoin experts but in reality, they don’t really know why bitcoin moves like that and like this. Well I guess even real experts cannot determine the fixed price of bitcoin, simply because bitcoin is highly volatile that no one can be perfectly right when it comes to its predictions.

Hence, if you come to believe in some experts speculations, it’s like you really don’t know what bitcoin is. No one holds the future of bitcoin so don’t entrust your decision making to anyone, but do your due diligence to study bitcoin and the market so you will create your own reliable information.
So called experts would really be just coming or popping out on time that market is really going up or even going down on which people would really be just throwing out some random speculation and if it turns out to be right then this is where they would really be that having those kind of claims that they are really experts on this field. Lol! If you've been here on this market for a while then you would be able to observe these kind or type of people who do really love on trying out to claim something or really loves to make themselves expert even on just having that single right prediction on where prices would go. This is why newbies should really be that vigilant when it comes to these things because they might be able to get fooled and it would be always better that you should really be that be relying on your own because if ever you would really be able to
have those kind of losing trades then at least you wont really be having those kind of regret specially if you have use on your own analysis.
311  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you take time to read the terms and conditions of casinos before registering? on: January 15, 2024, 07:42:43 PM
I never did before the sites screwed me out of a baseball win. Now I always look for the rules of the markets I am betting in.

This is one of the mistakes that most people usually make in life: they rush into the casino without even realising what the rules might be, whether it's what they will like or not. If they could see the TOS, they would not even try to deposit in the casino in the first place, and most casinos usually take advantage of this for gamblers who care less about the rules.
 
At least you have been able to learn from your past mistake and won't make such a mistake again in any new casino that you visit next time, and you will also have to use your work and personal experience to educate others who might want to make the same mistake. Reading TOS is really important, even if it's just reading about the restricted countries and the deposit and withdrawal terms.
On which it would really be that common that they would really be making such reading up with those terms or rules on the time that they would be experiencing some problems on which they should have done it earlier.
Well, regrets do always happen at the end and people do usually learn up lessons on hardway on which it would really be that be able to avoid it from the start if they are really just that sensible on the things that they are dealing with. Somehow i cant blame on to those people who do skip out on reading TOS because it is really just that always the same most of the  time on which you would really be assuming that it would really be that similar to each other in every platform on which it is really that showing or coming up. For me even myself dont really read up these terms on the time that i would really be playing on which it would really be just that
sharing up the common feeling that people would be normally skipping it.

Somewhat it would be better that you should be at least having some time or few seconds on trying out to snip those important informations on which you would really be able to
make yourself at least aware.
312  Economy / Economics / Re: Financial education and why it should be a priority. on: January 15, 2024, 06:32:26 PM
Financial education is a skill that is not been taught in schools, but to me it's the most important subject a man must learn in other to be financially independent.
This knowledge gives you smart money making decisions, and it improves your standards of living, It gives you priceless money management skill, you can't spend more than what you earn as a financial literate.
I still don't know why it's not been taught in schools up till now.
The  rich dad poor dad by Robert kiyosaki explain all what it entails and the stability it gives financially.
People who are involved in the world of finance will certainly understand why financial science is not taught in schools, I myself have been in the world of education for 10 years and financial matters are only about saving and being good workers, for some reason we seem to be designed as workers to equip companies that requires workers, and that is why standardizing people in general to get the best position in the company is a success that must be achieved.

The elites deliberately do this so that they stay at the top and create little opportunity for competition for themselves. To be honest, many intelligent people can only become workers because of the doctrine of education that has been ingrained in them during their studies at educational institutions.
Well, i could somewhat agree into this kind of sentiment on having that kind of isolation or being kept not to be told on schools so that people would really be get blinded and would really be ended up on being a worker forever.
We do know that that on this world there would really be those elites who are really that sitting on the top on which they would really be doing their very best on having that top spot and even if it means that not really exposing everything to those people who are at the bottom specially on financial education or something. Its true that to those who are really that mindful about improvement and overall upgrades into their lives
then it would be that normally they would be thinking out of the box without limiting themselves when it comes to opportunity grabbing.

This is why if you are that someone who do have plans on making your lives way more better than before, then it would really be just that wise that you should really be wary at least onto these particular things.
You cant really that make yourself that be something like this forever specially on being having that standard way of living on which being a worker for the rest of your life.
So it would be wise on thinking up something big and better.

313  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How diverse is your crypto portfolio? on: January 12, 2024, 09:06:23 PM
Back in the day when ICOs were a hot topic and when I was so much into bounty hunting , my portfolio had an average of 100 tokens of which some have become shitcoins or died completely and I have moved on to avoid high expectations from them..though will check on these every 5years incase they resurrect lol...

But with my new portfolio, have chosen to lower my risk to avoid holding shitcoins and losing money by going with a small portfolio of not more than 20 coins from a pool of thousands of coins on the market...
What matters more is that you are hodling the right coins to invest, no matter how small your portfolio is. I would even say it's still a wise decision even if you only invest in bitcoin as long as you store huge amount of bitcoin, that way if bitcoin price goes to the moon, for sure your profits will go massive as well.

However, with regards to mine, probably diversifying this time is not actually that you have to spread out your investments with bitcoin, altcoins and even shit coins. As long as I have bitcoin and few of altcoins that I think will grow their potentials, then I'm fine and confident with it that I won't suffer from big future losses.
This is something the right thing that you should really be doing on which instead on trying out to bag shit coins or meme coins into your bad, it would be always that ideal or something that normal to think that you should really be sticking into those projects which you do see that it would be having a solid and having that assurance at least or does have potential on which we could possibly be able to have those kind of big gains on the time that the market would really be having some huge spike up or simply saying about bull run thing or period.Diversification would really be always that best on which you arent that only limiting yourself on few coins or main coins but also in other coins as well on which you do know that you could really be able to make profits out of it. This is why people would really be having that kind of advantage to those people who do have enough capital
and to those people who doesnt have because they cant diversed out their positions just because of lacking of finances. This is why they do missed out on those golden opportunities on which they couldnt really be able to hit up just because they dont have sufficient funds or having that enough money for them to do so. So this isnt really something that would really be applicable to all.

----
Betted $20 and finally won $18000
It was purely a matter of luck because millions of people took bets on sports betting but by sheer luck one person won $18,000 for just $20 but not everyone won. No one can say when such a dream comes true. But I believe that if there is a big change in someone's luck, then something like this will automatically happen in his luck. But many can become millionaires by the power of luck in casino or gambling and some can lose everything and become bankrupt due to the cruel irony of fate. I have never seen anyone become big from gambling overnight but I have seen many people online who become millionaires from gambling or casino for few dollars.
Totally a matter of luck and we do know that hitting parlays is never been that simple in betting world on which it would really be just that normal that the odds on hitting up those consecutive wins
is never been that easy but of course once you do then even on how small your bet is then it would really be going into a significant one and this is where bettors and gamblers are really thriving.
This is what i do like on sports bet though on which you could really be able to apply your knowledge on which it would really be able to make you having that kind of advantage on which
it is really that better rather than on trying out you luck on chasing up SLOT jackpots on which we know that it would never been that simple in the first place.

When it comes to betting and doing gambling then it would really be that entirely depending on someones luck yet this would really be the main determining factor on why someone would really be
able to hit up these kind of winning moments on which we can really tell that it isnt something that anyone could do it. Good thing here is that while you do see your bets
winning then you do get entertained and enjoyed at the same time and this is what i do want with sports betting rather than on casino games.
315  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's Your Exchange to Wallet Ratio? on: January 11, 2024, 09:17:12 PM
Does anybody leave a percentage of their BTC on the exchanges, or do you guys store all your BTC in your wallets, etc?

I don't leave any BTC on exchanges because that would be weird and pointless since I don't trade, but I do hold some Ethereum on an exchange in order to get interest on my holdings.  As far as a ratio if I were to put a number on it...  I'd say the ratio of crypto assets on exchanges as opposed to being held in wallets as opposed to exchanges is just under 1 to 100.  This should change once the mtgox coins are distributed, but I imagine I will either cash out those coins or remove them from the exchange as well.
If you would really be doing trading then most likely you would really be experiencing that you would be storing up your funds into the platform on which it would really be just that normal that would be doing less on transferring it out into those non custodial wallet on which it is recommended but if the platform or exchange you are dealing with is something reputable and long time running
then it cant be denied that we could really be able to mold up such confidence and we might be considering on storing up those funds in long time. Even myself would be thinkin up the same.
It isnt really just that because of the fee but also the main reason on why people would be storing up their coins is that it isnt really that hassle on transferring go back and forth into those
funds which you are tending that you would gonna trade. This is why we do hear up different opinions but in general case on which its never been that recommended
for you to store up huge sums no matter how trustable it is, we've seen the worst so its better to be safe than sorry.
316  Other / Off-topic / Re: Crypto is a scam on: January 11, 2024, 08:57:53 PM
The whole point of crypto was to make the process even the gap between rich and poor unfortunately it is doing the opposite quite sad to see

Well, it is how you think about it. Let's see on the macro perspective, with Fiat money, the government keeps on printing it and those on the higher authorities keep enjoying the free printed money. With Bitcoin, this cannot be done as its supply is limited and if you want to have a lot of bitcoin BTC, you need to buy it from the market at the current market prices. This means that Bitcoin does not have inflation. and hence you can see the difference quite clearly.

However, don't think that crypto will be evenly distributed between rich and poor, you need to have skills, business or any other form where you have the money to invest in crypto. Just like you have to work for paper money, you need to work for bitcoins too but the difference is that your bitcoin will be valuable over the period of time while fiat money just depreciates with time.
Usually these kind of lines came from into those people who dont appreciate nor really that even aware on what cryptocurrency is or simply they had really that lost up huge or bigtime into their investment and this is why
they would really be saying up such things on which it is really just that obvious that they would really be saying up things on witch on the things that the do have in mind. Its a  common approach and its a common
words with those people who didnt been able to slurp up some profits on this crypto space. Scam on the sense that they had been experience scams literally. Just like been said that just let them be able to realize
those things ahead on their own and sooner or later they would really be just jumping in again into this market just because they have realized something.

Crypto is a scam on which you would say and it would really be just that normal that you would really be having those thoughts if you werent that been informed
on what crypto is or just basically molding up those words on which you are really that believing into something which it isnt really
even true.

I was reading coinconfessions, and it occurred to to me that most of those who are in crypto go through a phase where they make lots of money, but eventually lose it all or most of it due to wrong decisions taken due to having lack of financial knowledge.

Some start fresh with lessons learned and make it back, for some having huge unexpected money come and gone creates a downward spiral that they feel hard to get out of, almost like they were better off not having this unexpected wealth come in first place.

Not everyone go in that situation but rather their are people didn't manage well their finances since they always think that they can get more but sudden unexpected things happen where their main source of profit stops and they earn less. That's the lesson learned from people who think they can get everything they want since they already have money but turn out to be broke again when they hit harsh reality for losing their money on unexpected matter.

So for newbies to avoid this to happen much really better to settle up their expectation regarding on this and they should focus more on how they can build their wealth so that they can always protect their assets and get long term growth for themselves.
Mistakes are inevitable considering that we dont really start on being a pro or experienced person on which it is really just that normal that we would really be missing out into those things on which it is really that a must thing to be done specially on investing here on crypto space. Even myself did commit out tons of mistakes in the past on which it did lead out into that missing lots of earning opportunities on which i could even say that i might be rich now if i did make out such good decisions but due on being newbie and somewhat needing up actively on having those funds on the time that you do earn it then it would be converted to fiat.
If i havent done such thing in the past then im really that rich now i should say it again.

The important thing on here is that you should really know on how to move on and dont tend to look back into those past events or things had been done. You wont really be progressing if you do keep
on leaning back into those mistakes that you have done. Yes, it is really that indeed regretable but there's nothing we can do. If you do want to survive and do able to get another chance or opportunity
in the market then you should stand back up and deal up things accordingly basing up on what you have learnt.
318  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does it looks responsible as woman telling husband you gamble? on: January 11, 2024, 11:56:20 AM
The point is my husband doesn't know that i have been secretly gambling and involving myself with gambling discussions and the rest, So, this morning when i woke something in me keeps telling me i should let him know to understand my involvement  to practice gambling.

Does this worth telling him or not please i need you collective ideas.

I will ask you a question, why should you hide it? What on earth are you thinking to ask that question if it's worth to tell him? Isn't it more comfortable to do gambling without hiding? If he's against it, respect it. But that was the challenge to you, give him some words that should make him think that even if you are into gambling, you still know your responsibility to your family.

Keeping that gambling as private stuff from him will just make things worse.

I have this feeling that One of the reasons why she chose to keep it as a secret is that, her husband doesn't want her to be involved in any gambling activity. Like, He has his own preference when it comes to the person he wants to be with for the rest of his life and a woman who gamble doesn't fit to his standard, But it's also important to note that when you get married, all the problems and issues inside your relationship needs to be addressed in a good way. Always remember that secrecy is not good for a relationship.
When you do tend to decide or get involved with something and you do see that your husband would really be that getting angry or disappointed against gambling but you did still that decide to play up
and continue without letting him knowing and now asking on what are the things that should supposed to do? You are the ones who could really be able to decide for yourself whether you would really be telling up
these things into your husband or you would really be continuing on hiding it like forever or until you would bust up. For me then it would be better that you should really be telling the truth as early as you could
on which dont let yourself that get caught because it would really be a huge trouble. A relationship without any secrets is always that preferable.

If you are a wife that do really talks or really that in concern in your relationship then you would really be telling all the things which your partner
 wont really be able to have those kind of disappointements. Theres no good on keeping secrets into your partner on which it is really just that
right that you should be honest as much as possible or being that transparent.
319  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is the difference between crypto trading and traditional stock trading on: January 10, 2024, 09:32:11 PM
I'm a newbie in trading. I read books by John Schwager, Alexander Elder, John Bollinger about technical analysis and psychology in trading and I began to doubt that all this was suitable for the modern cryptocurrency market. How is crypto trading similar to stock and Forex trading? What are its similarities and differences?
I would like to thank everyone in advance for their replies, I appreciate it! Wink Wink Wink

Main difference?

1. Volatility
2. Regulation
3. Decentralized vs Centralized
4. Fundamental effects

Speaking about application of TA?
It would really be just the same on which traders on this market are definitely been making use of TA because news cant really be something that they could really be able to rely with.
Not all the time that fundamentals would really be leading or mainly be affecting this market on which it would really be just that a normal approach that people or traders
would really be commonly making use of these indicators.

The thing i do like on crypto market is that the possibility on earning huge profits once you do able to make yourself do make good trading decisions or calls.
Unlike on stocks or forex which movement is really that too slow. I do even believe that there are lots or tons of forex/stocks traders
did really consider out on touching crypto space because of this main difference.
320  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Succeeded in introducing Bitcoin to a friend on: January 10, 2024, 08:19:29 PM
Last week, an old friend of mine back then in the university in 2013 who later traveled to Canada to further his studies returned back to the country and yesterday, he coincidentally met my mum at a shopping mall and requested for my contact and my mom gave my number to him so he called and called the nickname that we both normally call ourselves back then in the university days I was so shocked to hear that and I called his original name and he answered and told me he is back from Canada and he requested we meet at a bar immediately.

 So with excitement to hear from an old friend after so many years I just immediately took my bath and zoomed to the bar he directed me, so I got there lo and behold my old time friend. We exchanged pleasantries and started discussing about life and I told him how life have been so uneasy but that I got a job in a factory were am paid $60 for about 2 years now and i told him that my colleague at work introduced me to a forum called bitcointalk where i registered on the forum and learnt a lot of things concerning Bitcoin and i also showed him the amount of bitcoins i have stored in my wallet so far and he became curious to know about bitcoin and i explained everything i know about bitcoin and encouraged him to join me in buying and holdling bitcoin that we are awaiting the bull market after the halving so he became so furious and told me that since he knew me that I don't normally give attention to anything online (internet) but for me to hodl such huge amount of Bitcoins that it means am really serious about it so he became interested and ask me how he can buy Bitcoin as well so I told him step by step on how to buy Bitcoin and he bought Bitcoins worth $520 that is about 0.012194 btc so he told me that he wish to acquire 1 btc so I told him not to worry that he will use the DCA method to buy same amount of bitcoins at different interval then with time he will surely acquire the 1 btc.
My question now is that is it wise that I showed him the amount of Bitcoins I have accumulated before he developed interest?
you have acted aggressively when you can have more time together since you have not seen each other for long time , there are so much time to introduce bitcoin and also showing your wallet that instant?
is this a true story or just a made one? sorry but this sounds truly a made up story for me because all the details are seemingly a book type one.
I think it is not right to assume that anything someone saying is nothing but a made up story. there are times in our life when we find something really amazing. and we can't wait to share that information with someone else. we can't contain our excitement and tell someone as soon as we meet. so maybe OP was going through that phase.
But OP didn't share his wallet yet. he was asking if he should have done that or not. and everyone gave him some valuable advices.
I hope he reads us and stay vigilant about his Wallet.
Human emotions could really be sometimes that leads up into those non good decisions specially if it do really exposes out something that in connected with privacy on which this is something that would really be that totally dangerous or something risky. This is why it would be always best that we should really be watchful on the things that we are really that deciding with. Its not really that bad to introduce Bitcoin to someone but it wouldnt really be that suggestable that you should really be showing off with your Bitcoin holdings. You are really just that putting yourself on such potential trouble since not all people would really be that something to be loyal and the rest would really be completely be changed up on the time they do see big money.

Its better to be safe that sorry and this is something that you should really be having in mind that you should really be that careful on the things that you are sharing up into.
Its not really necessary for you to show up everything because a simple link online that would be leading into those basic learnings and principles on what Bitcoin is should be enough or should suffice.
There are really just that those people who are really that not to mindful sometimes into their actions which they arent aware that they are really that putting themselves
at huge potential trouble.
