If you’re a Christian who considers yourself Christ-like then wouldn’t it make sense for you to be poor? Just a tongue in cheek response I know, but not everyone values their life by the amount of wealth they are able to obtain. Especially in the church, where many people’s goal is to help others, not enrich themselves.

Feels a bit like markets have gone as low as they were going to from the debt ceiling madness and now that the government has been able to secure the ability to print more money we should be again off to the races. There’s still a potential rate hike in the near future but we’re rapidly eliminating hurdles on the way to the next big bull run.

With Boston taking two in a row it feels like the pressure has now shifted to the Heat. They do not want to play in a game seven against a team that just beat them three times in a row. This will probably be the hardest fought game of the series for both teams. Usually that means one team resorts to taking bad shots when they get behind and then a blowout. I’m just glad we get more basketball after a day off.

I think that bitcoin will fall to zero if there is not a single person to accept bitcoin and as we see bitcoin is regularly pumping and no one can deny its success.
The very easy way to not sad when bitcoin become to zero is that whenever you achieve profit then remove your profit and save it with yourself and the remaining amount which you initially used for bitcoin investment will still be used as investment so whenever this happens you will have take your profit so there will be no need of regret in bitcoin.
I don’t even think I’m that scenario it would hit $0. I’m sure people would buy them all if it got anywhere near $100 again. Ironically, a price collapse and abandonment of users would make the blockchain much cheaper and more functional to use, thereby starting another wave of development and new use cases. If you’re in Bitcoin for the tech and not the money, a much lower price is probably a good thing.

What platforms do you use to get feedback on a website/ lander and so on? Avoiding typical answers like Slack, discord and facebook which it's full of fake profiles.
It likely depends on the size of your website and the reach of your customer base. If your customers are friends and family, Facebook is probably the best bet. If it’s a niche website and you’re frequently available, something like slack or discord would be good. If you’re global and have a lot of customers though, nothing beats Twitter.

I would say that a majority of the people in my life have absolutely no idea what Bitcoin is or that I’m involved in it at all. I’ve never really had discussion with people about what I do. I just assume that they think I’m living on welfare or supported by wealthy parents as the reasons why I’m always so available when needed. My lifestyle would point to being on welfare. LOL

The stock market bounced back this morning but Bitcoin seems to be lagging behind a bit. The government is now saying they’ve basically made a deal to avoid default, but it isn’t official yet. That news may be being overshadowed by a higher than expected inflation rate which means the fed will likely continue hiking rates. I don’t think that is the ideal Bitcoin environment, but we’re getting closer.

I won’t go as far to say I think that Boston is going to come back from 0-3 and make it to the finals, but they do have a good chance. If they can win another one tomorrow then I think they’ll swap from being the impossible underdog to the likely winner. Last game they dominated the game in every way. The Heat should probably start getting worried.

Looks like Boston wasn’t ready to go fishing just yet. They outplayed the Heat in pretty much every category and with Bam being Miami’s leading scorer it won’t be easy for them to get a win. The Heat are still in control of this series so there isn’t reason to panic just yet, but I’m sure they don’t want to lose the next one and let this go to game 7.

Crazy that people are talking about trading LeBron to the Warriors… I’m not sure what LA would get from that. LeBron sells tons of jerseys and tickets, not to mention he carries teams to the postseason. This would be the greatest thing to ever happen to the Warriors franchise. I can’t see it happening though.

China is already setting the stage for a new pandemic. I’m sure it will hit the US sometime before the next election. Politicians won’t be able to resist trying to wield the sort of power they had in 2020. Unfortunately for them, I think most people have now caught onto the scam and likely wouldn’t go along with whatever restrictions they try and place on us next time.

Changing of terms and conditions without notifying the users or gamblers is normal with online gambling websites? Then when you did something wrong or about to withdraw your money they will tell you that you don't read their terms and conditions, and you start arguing with them until you decide to read the ToS again and you find out that it's different.
Some gambling websites consist of wicked owners that willingly plan to defraud their users using the ToS against them, or is this normal? Have such happened to anyone on this forum before?
Online gambling is an industry that is rapidly changing and being regulated by many countries around the world. I imagine there are times when they’re forced to immediately make changes to their terms of service in order to be able to continue legally operating in certain districts. I don’t think it’s a malicious attack on their users.

This is an odd time for Bitcoin. I think this might be the most turbulent environment Bitcoin has ever faced. You have countries already falling into recession and plenty of BTC selling pressure on the horizon but you also have the halving coming in a year and an expected bubble coming a year after that. If this coming recession is a short one, it will likely create the best buying opportunity in Bitcoin since pre-2013.

It would appear that Target is the current boycott to watch as people are unhappy with the 'tucking' clothing and pro-trans products being marketed to children. The left has finally gotten the right to start taking boycotts seriously. All it took was a man dressed up like a woman on a beer can. Do you think this boycott will be as effective as the Budweiser boycott? Target executives are already having emergency meetings to try and get ahead of this issue as they do not want their sales to reflect a 25% decline like Bud Light. https://www.thestreet.com/retailers/target-faces-bud-light-like-woke-backlash-boycott-callsFunny i thought that conservatives/right were against cancel culture, but i guess the would be pointless to point out hypocricy as they seem to be totally unaware of it. But what comes to their boycott, so far i haven't seen any company going broke because they included of being "woke" to their branding. In fact, quite the opposite. But who knows, USA seems to have gone backwards after Drump gave them haters, qanon conspiratards, misogynists, regilious biggots, racists and spoiled insecure incels who now declare themselves as alphas a god damn megafone just by being an embodiment of them all. From across the pond reading their tweets and news it seems like they are going straight towards "handmaid's tale" type of world. Conservatives are against boycotting things for political opinions. Boycotting a brand that is helping perpetrate the largest child abuse scandal the world has ever seen seems a little more serious than trying to destroy an individual’s career because they said, “all lives matter.” Cancelling people’s careers for saying common sense phrases everyone should agree with. Bad. Not shopping at a store for trying to get your 4 year old son to cut off his dick. Good. Is that simple enough for you to understand?

The same work some do for 5 years and make it in life, other may do it for over 20 years and still feed from hand to mouth. Can we conclude that such are individual destiny?
When it comes to being rich or poor, I’ve found that at least in developed nations it is more determined by your spending habits than you ability to earn income. I know people who make over a quarter million dollars a year and are nearly broke from vacations and fancy rental homes and leased cars. I also know people who make less than $20K a year and live like Kings because they are debt free and self sustaining. If you’ve worked for 20 years and are broke, check your spending habits.

I tossed a couple bucks on the Miami Heat to close out the Boston Celtics tonight. I think Bston gave it their all last game to avoid a sweep and now it’s time for them to go fishing and leave the Finals for a matchup between the Heat and the Nuggets. I think the Nuggets will win that series fairly easily as Miami just doesn’t have enough talent.

I feel like the next week or two is going to be pretty scary for investments of all kinds. With politicians seemingly playing chicken over a debt ceiling agreement and equities already beginning to selloff, you have to be worried that Bitcoin could see a major dip here. I’m not a believer that Bitcoin will be a savior asset that goes up when everything else crashes.

Nvidia’s stock price soaring is great for the company and their future products. With their company’s value shooting up to all time highs, they should have no problem raising the money to build whatever they need to maintain a best in class product line for years to come. I imagine that is good news for fans of their GPUs.

If you ask me, going from $16K to $26K is the bull run... These runs have a tendency to last multiple years when you zoom out and tune out the noise. Come next April, the block reward will be slashed in half and demand will likely be higher than it is today. There won't be US government auctions and the mtgox coins will be distributed. You're going to want to have a position built by then so I think the way to play it is to dollar cost average into the market for the next two years and then enjoy the rewards that come with that decision.

You shouldn't think of it as stagnation. Think of it as accumulation after a large increase. Not long ago the price was $16K. A lot of people have profits to cash out and the longer it sits at a certain level the more people get exhausted of holding and sell. Once the weak hands have all sold and all that is left is buyers, the price will move up again. Consolidation phases are not bad at all for the market. They exhaust those with leverage payments to make and those who don't believe sell off their coins for other get rich quick attempts. Strong hands can then scoop up coins for the next wave upward.
