I know the current market capitalization can have a hard drop in the future, but right now is impressive to see it over $2T.
Would this drop be caused by people cashing out or just turning into another asset in the future? Once they have realized that it's profitable to keep it in crypto, that will stay, I think unless another tragedy hits or something.



Comparing a company to projects/protocols isn't even a good comparison in the first place. And knowing that Bitcoin takes a huge chunk of the total marketcap to start with, it would probably make more sense to compare bitcoin to gold than a company.
I agree with you on this one. You can't compare it, but if we're talking about just "Assets" in general, it could be there could be an overlap of some sort. If you look at it fundamentally, it's different, but if you are looking at numbers and what they mean, I think it's okay. I guess the OP shows that there are many investors in the crypto market in terms of value only, not because it became like that in the first place.
3062  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: HOW MANY PEOPLE % DOES REALLY SUCCEED ON CRYPTOCURRENCY on: May 05, 2021, 01:46:03 AM
It would be hard to get statistics on that particular aspect because I think no one wants to show their failures and doesn't want to publicize the data that they have gathered on their failure. How would you even determine the success of a project? Is it the amount of HODLers? Or the market cap that it has? Many factors could choose that, and I believe not every project is willing to show that.

What you could do is determine the top 100 coins right now and see why they are on top. Determine if there's something that they have done differently. From there, you could decide what you want to get on those data.

The top 100 coins are the real winners here.
3063  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When will the Fiat slaves from Old school Investment companies get Bitcoin? on: May 04, 2021, 04:31:32 PM
That's what they are probably scared about, change.

It's almost always the next step that they don't fully understand or don't want to dwell with the current technology that we have today. It's just that you're correct. They want profits and enjoy it in their pockets. If people didn't start waking up from reality in which that there is more power to them if they choose crypto instead of fiat, then we're probably still at a low point with crypto prices, namely BTC. But thankfully, a lot of people are following and are in the highest range, and we have to thank the institutional investors who had invested a portion of their assets into BTC.

That's an outstanding achievement. Don't the old-school people see the essence of crypto? Big businesses are adopting crypto. If they feel like that with BTC, then they shouldn't trade companies that are involved in crypto as well. I just hope it turns everybody around.
3064  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Charlie Munger hating on bitcoin on: May 04, 2021, 03:12:30 PM
They just have hated BTC from their words from before. This link is a video from Warren Buffet, but they are technically the same with the same belief system.

https://www.cnbc.com/video/2018/05/07/buffett-bitcoin-is-an-asset-that-creates-nothing.html

It's basically what they would like to say because they can't fathom what it does in reality. All they know is the old school ways that have been proven with years behind the asset, but since BTC is still at its infancy and still have not yet given the proper thought to everyone, unlike what they are investing in, it's not going to be put in their brains that it's a viable asset.

Maybe what they don't understand is that you can have digital assets right at your fingertips or in your mobile phone and think that it's non-existent or just created out of thin air since it's digital. It's never going to work if they are closed-minded like that. They would stick to the basics with their fundamental analysis. Not so much on the technical analysis.

I thought that they would change their minds once it has sky rocketed from before, but now, it's just not going to work for them.

I don't know what to cringe at, and it's the effort that you put in but has a lot of errors (in the post) or the effort that his friend forgot his email address and password. I don't know how he even got registered if he can't open his email on it. It's just that crazy to think about. I don't know.

To prevent this kind of happenings, I think it's best to have your password manager remember all the passwords and have security by having different passwords in your account.

If you are worried about being hacked, then add another layer of security, 2FA.

I'm not sure if this is correct, I know that you can implement a browser extension with chrome with Binance Chain Wallet.

Or I'm not sure on this one as well, maybe this link could lead you somewhere. https://docs.binance.org/smart-chain/wallet/ledger.html
3067  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: IP address belonging to a scam researcher on: May 04, 2021, 08:17:30 AM
Any proof towards what they did or something? I'm just looking at it at a neutral perspective. Imagine just posting a random IP address and saying that it's a virtual computer used for scamming.

What can you do, btw? Knowing those addresses? They can just put it up on another VPS or something. It's still best to find the actual culprit to prevent future attacks.
3068  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin no longer relevant? on: May 04, 2021, 07:58:19 AM
It can never be irrelevant knowing that it's the actual market. Imagine that you need to buy BTC (ideally) to get involved in crypto to avail another type of crypto. Yes, you can get different coins directly, but most people would understand that if one person says they want to get involved in the crypto space, it's "BTC," which comes up to mind immediately.

Look at the different markets in different exchanges, and there is their market with their coin, BTC markets, and other relevant pairs for you. It's almost always going to BTC.

For BTC maximalists, it's not going to work, and it's always going to be number 1, and I don't think it's going to happen anytime soon. With the scarce supply and characteristic to HODL, the investment makes it even more valuable.

Just HODL BTC and HODL other coins but remember that BTC is always going to be relevant.
3069  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: You could die from trading. on: May 04, 2021, 06:38:05 AM
You know, a lot of the problems that traders encounter is the feeling of Greed. Experiencing a very high-profit win in one trade makes it feel like you could earn within a small amount of time. It's the best feeling, and it's best to hold on to that feeling. But the problem now arises when it becomes a habit that you want to do that every time and when you cannot, it becomes mentally abusing yourself and making yourself emotional.

I have known a lot of people, including myself, that has become emotional with trading. The small amount of movement and paper losses becomes a thing that occupies your mind, leading to stress. I think it's best to acknowledge that you cannot have everything, but you can do your best to become profitable. It's best to be physically fit and mentally fit when engaging in these kinds of activities.

That's a significant pain point with traders, and I believe one solution to that is to have a trading bot, like Gunbot, and let it do your trading and monitor it from time to time. Understand that it's not the short-term gain that we are looking for but in the long-term one.
3070  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: BNB to $1k? on: May 03, 2021, 03:17:29 PM
If somebody just traded BNB at the time of Abiky's posting, they would be up by 10% by now. Not bad lol.



Anyway, I think the potential of BNB is still at its early stages. If you have some extra money that you are willing to invest, I think it could be a great asset to have. Just like what I'm doing. This is just my opinion and not to be taken as financial advice.

Just imagine this, knowing that the #1 Crypto Exchange has their personal coin and what does #1 people have? It's value. That's just how I look at it now.

Until it doesn't lol

What I do with Binance is just scanning the QR presented on their device and just authorize the login. They have a great app so you wouldn't have to continuously login on your phone. And when you are logging on a desktop, then it wouldn't be so hard with all the process.

Is Heiken Ashi what you are talking about? I'm not sure what your intention on using it for, but I think it's a practical candlestick that tells you the average direction of the actual price. It's a great way to be utilized if you are very strict in your rules in trading. No matter what the situation is.

I don't think everyone is following the same strategy, and it's just that there are two types of mindset that could be formed.
  • Bullish Traders
  • Bearish Traders

They are in a fight who would win, and in the long run, they are going looking to be the winner in every battle. What matters is going to be who's on top and who would win the market. It just goes to show that not everyone is following the same strategy but people are following the same mindset of the market.

I saw that KuCoin has the P2P markets involved. Have you tried this? -> https://www.kucoin.com/otc

Maybe where you are located has applied P2P and trade directly with a trusted person.
3074  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum Gas fee issue on: May 02, 2021, 02:34:04 PM
You cannot transact anything on the ETH network without having a balance on your ETH Wallet. It's best to convert some of that USDT to ETH and then convert and swap. I think the fees with that are quite enormous the last time I transacted in the network. It's best to just swap another currency or find out what other coin you can purchase in Coinbase.

April Activity

As I ponder what to do for the April activity, I looked for ways to impact everyone. I thought that and it's not just with humans, but it will be with animals. That's why I decided to contact PAWS and ask about what they need and the appropriate time to go. This is because of all the restrictions because of the pandemic.

A little background with Paws. As indicated on their website, PAWS is a registered non-profit organization that is dedicated to the protection and the promotion of humane treatment of all animals. from https://paws.org.ph/about-us/





Preparation:



They want a bunch of cat food and cleaning materials. Most of their donators are always thinking that if it's animal welfare and they house a shelter, they will always think about dogs. So most of the donations and animal food that they have consisted of most dog food. It's one of the reasons I contacted them on what they need because they might have a request, hence the cat food that they need.

Activity:
They gave us a shelter tour of how the animals are housed and how their operations work. Let me share with you what I've learned about them as well.

This is their receiving area in which the donations are going to be drop off there (if there's no shelter tour)


There is also the memorial part of the shelter where there is a fee with putting your pet (another source of their income) that would symbolize how they could visit a type of "grave" for their pets. No actual remains are there, just a place where furrents can visit when they feel the need.



Before animals are housed there or helped, they have these quarantine areas to prevent the spreading of possible viruses and diseases to those already in the shelter. This is part of their protocol according to the government's regulations in how shelters should work.



After the animals finish their quarantine stage and are checked by the veterinarian, they are now placed into their real shelter. IIRC, Some of their places are called "Cattery" and Kittenery." They have this catwalk and some dogs who are free to roam in some sense. They also have this doggie park.





When the animals get sick, they are put into a separate area, depending on their condition. They have severe and mild conditions places. And also a separate room for animals with disabilities. They also have a dedicated vet clinic for their needs, of course. I only managed to capture the images for the cat's places because the place for the dogs are pretty hard to get into and hard to take a clear picture of it



They have a vast area in the city, so it's great to see that it's very well taken care of with all the recent happenings. I'm happy that we can help them. Thanks to everyone who has supported this initiative.

More Pictures of their shelter.





This is the result of people who have kind hearts to donate to this Bitcointalk Charity. Having it anonymously done makes it even more special. So thank you for the donations. To more events like this!

Most of the Pump and Dump groups are just recycling signals one or another. Like they register to a signal group and they are selling their " subscription" by creating another group and selling their signals but it just came from one signal to the other.

It's best to stay away from this type of investment. It's not going to be good for you. It's just a bunch of people who hope that they can get money from people who are desperate enough to have their "hope" in trading.
3077  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Fake Solstarter Token Sale[Scam please be aware] on: May 01, 2021, 05:36:01 PM
Maybe the reason was that they have employed slick tongued charlatans to promote their token to make it look like they are really promising something good. We know that a lot of people are too polite to refuse people that knows their way with words. And they might've ride with the current run of a lot of cryptocurrency so it did look legitimate.
It could be that case too. But I highly doubt if they are going to go legit in this crypto space. I don't think you can fake the transaction on it to just say they are good. Or is it? Maybe examining the wallet address could give answers.

It seems that the address that the OP posted has removed all the funds already. Leaving only 1 ETH in the address. Cashed out maybe? Didn't check where the transactions went through.
3078  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Stay humble and stay safe on: May 01, 2021, 09:39:05 AM
There's ways of going about it. I've certainly helped people, but I've never really shown specifically the amount that I've earned. You can simply give them ballpark figures, and what they could expect to earn. At the end of the day, in matters on your initial investment, and what route the market takes. It really isn't specific to the person.
I think it still depends on who you are talking to and if they are trustworthy enough, to begin with. The best way, IMO, is to tell them that they themselves can earn but they need to study and put some real effort into it as well. Understand why the likes of Elon Musk are hyping crypto. Educating them with what crypto is the best approach.

Plus there's plenty of examples of people earning money out there, that isn't you. If they ask specifically what you earned, you can just politely tell them you'd rather not talk about it. Although, even that if your talking to a person that you might not think is trustworthy, then that alone could arise suspicion that you've earned a decent amount.
I think people who became famous by becoming a millionaire in the recent Doge pump could be a great example of those. So saying those who had the opportunity to become millionaires could immediately say that they could earn from it. But doing that is a different story as well (because of trading).
3079  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Fake Solstarter Token Sale[Scam please be aware] on: May 01, 2021, 07:26:26 AM
The website itself looks kind of sketchy.
Actually mate if you visit the original website of solstarter you can noticed the difference of the interface and this fake one is looks really cheap and obviously sketchy.
I actually checked it first and saw that they are not yet on the stage on token selling so it's immediately a red flag. I'm sad that people didn't even check or did their own research first before investing.
3080  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: JUST CURIOUS on: April 30, 2021, 04:13:24 PM
I think you just answered your question. It's long-term. And it's typically going to be profitable the longer you hold it. Some influencers do have a belief in Bitcoin, especially if their niche is somewhat inclined to technology. As long as people are holding, I think it's worth saving as well. If you have extra money, then why not just invest more. No cashing out until you don't need it yet. I think that's the best strategy.
