Thanks for sharing obvious things. Bitcoin has become a thing among investors. The shift from gold to digital assets is noteworthy. Bitcoin's rise in value during the banking crisis suggests that its attractiveness as a "Safe Haven" asset is growing, given its performance throughout economic downturns.
Bitcoin revolutionizes money and investing due to its decentralization. Decentralization creates many problems, such as the lack of a central authority to interfere in market manipulations or retrieve lost cash. But who cares, anyway? Investors' responses to these problems and Bitcoin's integration into the financial system will be fascinating as it matures.

Satoshi's works reflect his passion for financial system transformation. Owning Bitcoin is like owning digital history. The technology world evolves like nature. Its important to remember that being first doesnt mean you'll be around forever.
Bitcoin follows this innovation rule too. It pioneered technology during a financial crisis and lasted for a decade. Technological longevity frequently depends on flexibility and evolution. When a better system emerges is the question.
Belief is key. Why are vinyl records still popular while streaming is king? Pioneers are valued intrinsically. Bitcoin, born at a crucial time, has a popularity that goes beyond technology. If Satoshi's brilliance and enthusiasm inspire a new system, it may not simply be superior technology, but if it can get the same trust and following as Bitcoin.

There's a flip side to this. After the halving, my Bitcoin investments would have doubled. I plan to reward myself with the profit by:
- Visiting Mongolia, one of the most beautiful countries in the world. I've seen a lot of documentaries about Mongolia on YouTube.
How do you plan to make the most of your Bitcoin investments before the halving in 6 months?
This is his hope, even more than that, hopefully. However, we also have to be calm and not get too obsessed with prices that have soared very high. Remaining in a fairly reasonable zone. However, at least if we can get past the ATH of last bull season, of course this will have a big impact on our total assets. It's just that, we don't know when the right time will be, whether after the halving is right or like before we have to wait a few more months. We have to be patient. As long as that doesn't happen, making more optimal purchases and investments in Bitcoin is one way I can accumulate investments in Bitcoin. At least, we can optimize as much Bitcoin as we have, but still under our control of money management. Balance is everything. That next huge price increase has us all on edge, right? But your advice about avoiding the madness is wise. Smart asset allocation and avoiding overcommitting to a volatile market. Every financial move must be smart and calculated, like chess. Nobody knows what Bitcoin will do, so we wait. Halving events, market speculation - its all part of the equation, and timing the market is extremely challenging. Playing the long game means focusing on the horizon rather than the waves ahead. You're right about optimizing purchases. DCA into Bitcoin has historically mitigated volatility. Its all about controlled expansion of your assets, right? Follow money management fundamentals and dont let the noises define your plan to weather cryptocurrency's volatile nature. |

Starting with $1500 is a fairly large capital that we consider, I also started investing in bitcoin not that big just a few dollars every week but over time the portfolio is growing especially when the price is increasing.
Maybe you can start what you want including from the choice of bitcoin or altcoin, because for me bitcoin is a fairly safe investment than other altcoins, we can predict how the cycle occurs so with altcoins there is always a season called altcoin season, but I am not fully convinced of investing in altcoins so put aside and focus more on accumulating bitcoin for a long time that's what we want.
Everyone has given advice, do you already have a plan, will it be divided into several percentages? It is in your hands as a choice.
Starting with $1500 puts you ahead of the pack in crypto. Your gradual investment shows discipline, which is essential in this unstable market. Bitcoin is the most trusted and stable crypto asset. Its cycles have patterns that the keen observer can track with some assurance. Bitcoin's stability shouldnt be overstated while diversifying your portfolio, especially if you're not a crypto expert. Despite the appeal of altcoin seasons, altcoins are risky and demand a strong strategy and nerves. As a beginner, allocating more to Bitcoin may be a safer decision Crypto is about the trip as much as the destination, so plan accordingly. Both market intelligence and personal conviction should inform your investing split. Discover market trends, technology, and your risk tolerance. This is when your portfolio and expertise expand significantly. |

You made a smart investment into a life milestone, which is impressive. Sharing your personal achievement shows Bitcoin's many benefits. Beyond figures and charts, its about what they can accomplish for us personally. And you did that magnificently by financing a life-changing event. Bitcoin's presence as a financial backup for such an event shows its expanding influence.
Interesting, huh? How digital money might affect a wedding. You demonstrate how digital investment may lead to a celebration. This story could boost cryptocurrency's ecosystem by demonstrating its value beyond trade.
Your experience as a married couple shows others in the community how Bitcoin may be used as an investment and to achieve personal goals. Here's to hoping your marriage is as strong and forward-thinking as its investment. Good luck with your future!

Pretty much self explanatory. How do you do it?
I listen to their reasons and I decide to whether ignore them or not, some people do have valid concerns and understand why they say what they say but some are just blatant haters and they even say their opinions very condescendingly. I'm a petty person and like keeping blatant haters around, it gives me joy to see their reaction when I ignore what they have to say about my decisions to where I invest my money. Then we are alike, I always like staying when others choose to run away from those who are hating on them, they don't believe in us it's fine, stay around and let them feel the wrath of their own hate when you are shining, it's indeed a big pleasure watching them get suffocated while things keep getting better for you. Some do this because they feel concerned and they don't want you to fail, but some will take it too far which will reveal that what they actually want for you is different, before I became what I am today, many people who are suppose to be encouraging me, even the so called blood ones are all criticizing, I eventually find out that it's not about concern of wasting my time, sometimes I even feel like they are witches and wizard, maybe they already have the answer of what will happen in the future and they are trying to make me stop. The only person that supported me was my father, like if he is still alive today I will spend more money and my sweat on him, unfortunately he passed too soon, he is a special man, I am proud and confidence to say that if I have the opportunity to come back to this world again I will choose him as a father again. Being resilient when everyone else is pulling back is hard, especially when you're being criticized. It shows how strong you are that you chose to stay where others ran away, letting other people's doubts fuel your determination. That level of determination is very important. As you saw, the market is very shaky, and many people dont believe in digital currencies either, just like they didnt believe in you. But those who stay strong during the storm of the market often end up winning. Many people go through the same hard times you did with critics, even in your own circle. This is a fight of the mind as well as the body. But the belief of your father - thats the kind of backing that makes visionaries in any field. Its too bad that the world didnt get to see more that he taught you. In Bitcoin, these kinds of stories happen all the time. Those who stick with it are usually the ones whose ideas are proven right. |

For many, the "HODL" mantra has been both good and bad. It fits with the Stoic idea of "weathering the storm of volatility," but its not always the smartest thing to do financially. The emotional ups and downs from the high of $69k to the low of $20k show how unpredictable the market is. A fluid plan is important, in my opinion.
Definitely, if the market keeps going down, it makes sense to protect your gains by switching to a stablecoin like USDT. Its about finding a balance between the hope of a recovery and the harsh truth of market trends. Your idea makes room for a plan that needs both alertness and quickness.
I believe that you should always have a way to get out of something. Not only do you need to know when to enter, you also need to know when to leave, even if only for a short time. Its not about selling in a hurry; its about keeping your money safe in case of a big drop. There might be a halfway ground between people who are HODLing and people who sell as soon as they see trouble coming.

Amazing Bitcoin story I hadnt heard before. Tony Vaughn's situation is fascinating. Bitcoin's volatility and stellar development would have made them worth a lot if he held them. It presents the issue of whether we can endure market swings without cashing in when life's expenses call.
Imagine his internal struggle as the currency soared; I wonder if he still hodl. Bitcoin's 'what if' component is constant. Tech investments are uncertain, since his decision may have affected his money.
Some call it a modern financial tale about risk, planning, and chance. Its amazing how such decisions can affect fortunes and cryptocurrency's payment acceptability. Each Bitcoin holder's narrative reveals its importance and potential, including Vaughn's.

Low prices are tempting, but they dont tell the whole story. Many crypto market beginners fall into this trap of quantity over quality.
Theres more, right? Crypto is more complicated than the price-to-supply ratio. New investors sometimes want immediate gains without understanding market dynamics or technology. Great danger, great return, but without plan and expertise; it is likely to bring disaster
Sticking to known cryptocurrencies may sound wise, but its based on a deeper understanding of market fluctuations. Long-term investing in fundamentals, not hype, is key. Your advise is good, but can newcomers resist the lure of fast riches? Thats the problem, right? Learning to value sustainable growth over the alluring but sometimes unattainable promise of exponential returns is difficult.

It is safe to store your money in the bank but safer to store it in your crypto wallet. If you are suggesting that people store their crypto on an exchange, what then is the essence of not storing it in the bank? It doesn't matter if they have 'top-notch security" as they normally claim before getting hacked, they are still in control of your funds than you think. I believe everyone should have a decentralized wallet where they store their funds (and also have complete control over the funds) and only go to Centralized EXchanges when they must. Additionally, one should only send the amount needed for the specific transaction they want to carry out. As the name goes "Centralized EXchange", you can tell it's meant for exchange and not for storing funds.
Banks provide security, but cryptocurrencies provide everything. Crypto's actual value is its decentralization - the ability to be your own bank without centralised control or risks. Exchanges are convenient, but recent incidents show their security is always at risk. You made smart financial decisions by using decentralised wallets for storage and exchanges. It follows cryptocurrency's principals of minimising exposure and maximising control. This method is not without drawbacks. It can be hard for the normal person to use and get to, which could slow down widespread adoption Understanding that exchanges are marketplaces, not vaults, is helpful. However, it raises a issue: how do you balance centralised convenience with decentralised security and values? The crypto community continues to advocate for user education and more user-friendly decentralised choices. Your observation reminds us that crypto vigilance and personal accountability are essential |

Hey guys! I made some research and I didn't see this topic and I want to make comments there and since I could not get anyone here so I decided to drop this one. I have been hearing bitcoin bear market and the bull market but I have not really heard of a bear and bull market for Altcoins. So I will like to know the bear and the bull market of the altcoins or are they following the market price of bitcoin? Bitcoin is a project on it own and has it own blockchain and network and likewise with Altcoins.
Some of the Altcoins are good to invest but most of us are not aware of that if they are good because there is no bull time for them. And the way I see at them they are just going along with bitcoin. So some of the Altcoins are waiting for the next bitcoin bull market. So my humble question is there no bull market for Altcoins? If yes, there is, then when is the expectation and if no why?
Interesting question! Bitcoin and altcoins are like tide and boats. Bitcoin raises all boats, but sometimes they sail alone. Each altcoin has its own fundamentals and market dynamics. They may seem to follow Bitcoin, but many have their own "seasons" of bull markets driven by project milestones or external investment. Altcoin bull markets can be sparked by technology advances, increased popularity, or regulatory developments that favour altcoins over Bitcoin. They are evolving while waiting for Bitcoin to take off. The cryptocurrency market is broad and active, with many projects emerging slowly until they gain popularity. When and how cryptocurrency bull markets occur is more important than whether they occur. Expecting an altcoin bull market depends on market, project development, and investor behaviour. This needs careful research, market cycles, and sometimes timing luck. |

For those who are able to hold back and not regret his actions, then I admit that person is not a gambling addict.
That will happen if you know how to control yourself because addictions just happen if we let our emotions/feelings control us. I was thankful that I'd never been into that situation but honestly, it was very close during my early days in gambling where I was about to chase my losses. I'd realize the impact of such thinking because I found out that the more I gamble, double or triple my bets, I'd never have the chance to get lucky but instead, I lose more. Good thing that some of my friends give some advice otherwise, it is a huge possibility that I fall into addiction. Yes, that's right, the beginning of gambling was the phase where I made that mistake. I didn't know how gambling worked so I tried to keep chasing my losses until finally all my savings were gone. At that time I was curious about Maxwin from slot machines, but I thought there was no point in chasing Maxwin, it's better to just enjoy the game with small capital, because when we spend a lot of money to gamble we won't find pleasure when gambling, there are only emotions and stress . It's bad for mental health When we are still on noob phase or something that do talks about first time, then those kind of intents and mindset would really be normal on which our approach would really be mainly be focusing on making easy money with gambling yet this would really be the main thing that you do have in mind on the time that you have seen about gambling. Yes, money making is easy but on the other hand you arent really that aware on how risky it is and this is where mistakes do really start. On the time that you would really be experiencing unfortunate events then this is the time you would be making those realizations on which it is really just that normal to make out some adjustments. Most of us would really be that wary and able to learn but there are some who would really be sticking into their initial plans despite on hearing or experiencing those things along the way. There are really just indeed those type of people who do really keep pushing their luck or trying out to do the things that they do have in mind despite of the risks involved. They would really be only trying to lay low on the time that they experiencing hardship. Its a learning curve to enter the ring thinking you'll outsmart the system but finding it much more crazy. Most of the time, people wake up after losing money, when the veil of "easy money" lifts and the harsh light of danger shines through. Gambling is fascinating because people keep taking risks despite bad results. Some people adjust their strategy after setbacks, while others keep going. The world of gambling is very ironically funny because people are torn between being careful and being brave. Many struggle to decide when to push or fold. Its about managing financial and mental health. Knowing when hope becomes delusion is crucial. |

Gambling doesn't have any benefits, I can agree with you when you say the health benefits of gambling is when you win a larger amount of money in gambling, but when you don't win money their is some certain things you feel that causes health disorders in human beings and its caused by gambling, when you lose in gambling it will make someone who don't summon courage to be depressed and also have mental disorder because of loss of gambling, so since I have born I have not seen the health benefits of gambling and especially when you lose gambling frequently, gambling causes thinking and also stroke when you lose much in gambling and secondly when you use the money you are supposed to use for another thing for gambling.
I also probably can't list the positive aspects of gambling other than the fact that it helps to produce dopamine in a fairly calm and safe environment. Of course you can get dopamine in many other ways, but if you get it by betting or playing slots in your free time and don't cause anyone problems, that's your right. We are all free to choose how we get the happy hormone. Yes, I quite agree with your assumption, basically we cannot know about the positive aspects that can be obtained by each gambler, because only they know and feel the impact that they think is good, and maybe one of the more likely among others is in terms of dopamine that you mentioned, the pleasure in gambling does make it possible to increase the production of dopamine in the brain which has no other role to improve their mood to be more calm and comfortable. Of course, I think there are still or even many other alternatives that can increase the production of dopamine in the human brain, such as finding other activities that also have the same impact of pleasure but without risk, actually there are still many other options that they can choose, but unfortunately they narrow the alternative opportunities with some unreasonable reasons. Although yes, I understand that everyone has the freedom to make choices, but try to think more rationally and consider before you make a decision, and if you are ready with all the impacts that will make you uncomfortable then go ahead, one thing is that regret will always come at the end. The gambler's high (that dopamine rush) is powerful and is desired for its mood-boosting effects. It is a win, but only for a short time, right? Temporary joy that raises questions about long-term satisfaction. And the mind and body can be enriched by a variety of activities that provide dopamine without the risk. Why do gamblers - or any of us - limit ourselves when there are so many options? The mystery of human nature makes it a conundrum. Our choices often reflect our emotions rather than reasoning. Rational minds argue while emotional hearts decide, a long-standing contradiction. Indeed, freedom of choice is a double-edged sword whose weight is felt after the dice roll. Risk and reward are seduction coming with prices. Your comments remind us that regret lurks behind chance. Choices shape our fate, thus they require patience and wisdom. |

Might seem rude or something but it does make me feel better since I ain't as dumb as them. Well at some point I guess I was one of them, but I grew and moved on (rather quickly as well luckily). In all honesty, it isn't all about just gambling, it's about being responsible. Gamblers are just more obvious because there's a clear-cut reason as to what they weren't responsible for, money. Sadly there are actually quite a few influencers imo that use such strategies to garner an audience, and well, it works. Anyway back to gambling, I hardly doubt such warnings/sharing experiences work. I mean in your example take a look at cigarettes. They did those but I doubt users dropped. It might've been with the advent of vape, but it was due to vape and not due to those images that made them stop. Same thing here. You'd need an alternative to make gamblers stop, well, gambling. Hearing someone talk about personal growth honestly is refreshing. Your ability to recognize and change a past behaviour shows resilience. You're reaching a milestone in responsibility. Similar to any risky behaviour, gambling shows a lack of accountability, especially when money is involved. Its true that influencers have taken advantage of these human traits, and it can be hard to tell whats right and wrong. Warnings and shared experiences have always been a thing. Gambling wina are loud and public, while losses are quiet and typically overlooked by the next great win. The smoking-to-vaping contrast demonstrates that dangerous behaviours persist without a less harmful option. This suggests that a safe or helpful outlet may change gambling tendencies. What may gambling's 'vape' be? Is it virtual gaming, stock market trading, or something entirely different? Each has its own set of risks and responsibilities. The solutions may not be simple or universal, but discussing them sparks harm reduction innovation. |

I am thinking to start betting on sports because I think it is fair then other games and there I should be able to control my hands which I could control while playing games like dice, plinko, mines, etc.
I want to know how can i start betting on sports and start making good profits, I am asking this type of question because i have no knowledge about any sports or players.
please give me some tips, strategy, resources to getting started.
do not reply with suggesting good platforms to bet on, I already know reputed platforms to bet.
EDIT: I know a little about cricket and football.
I don't know if you were into sports before, because sports betting isn't about increasing profits or increasing our wealth. The presence of betting in this sport is actually so that someone can increase the sensation when watching the match so that someone can enjoy the match from start to finish with full of challenges. But there are indeed not a few people who think that sports betting is a field to seek profit. Actually this is also not a problem, if accompanied by good knowledge and abilities in betting, especially in control. Because if not, maybe the bets you make will only be a loss. And in doing sports betting then you will be required to continue to dig up the latest information as a basic material for conducting a match analysis. No doubt, sports betting can increase game excitement. The risk and potential return make every play, every point scored, meaningful to a bettor. You're in a story now, not simply a game. However, sports betting has a harsh reality that many ignore. Profits can lure people down a path they're unprepared for. Betting is a strategic activity that requires analytical thinking, discipline, and an almost academic approach to the sport. Without this, losses can quickly turn entertainment into a financial disaster. Successful betting requires constant research on facts, player conditions, and team strategy. Remember the human element- sports' unpredictability that no amount of information can totally minimize. Bettors' problem is the illusion of control in an unpredictable game. Try to get rid of that |

I saw people wagering a lot of money, but this guy took it to some higher levels... How can we compete in some wagering wars and competitions against players who wager so much? Do we even have a chance?  Whales can wager huge because they are rich so not surprising if they can risk such amount in gambling. My maximum limit is $2 everytime I wager, that's the amount I can only afford and i'm not competing to anyone who can wager huge amount when they play. This is not a competition, what matter here is you satisfy yourself regardless of even you're playing to have fun or to profit. Thus, don't copy what others are doing because we have our own reasoning on why we gamble and of course we have different financial status in life. Yes, it is very difficult to beat or even just to rival the amount of their bets, of course it is because the financial differences or finances are very different, they have very good finances in their lives that make the amount of bets that we consider very large according to them is normal and not too meaningful. Besides, I think it's pointless to compare the betting amount of each individual and on the other hand I also won't care too much about it because this is gambling that only relies on luck, and also on the other hand there is no guarantee for anyone even if they bring a large budget amount to be able to get a win. Basically every gambler has the right to set whatever amount of bets they will budget on their gambling, and the best thing is as you said it is absolutely true, responsible and wise gamblers are those who can or only allocate money that they can be responsible for whatever the results are, it's better like that than we feel pressured by putting large amounts but the final result always loses. Especially if you come just for fun then I think don't care about the amount of the bet, but prioritize your fun, after all you are not looking for victory either. Yes that's right guys, we have our own reasons for what's best for us. A common mistake is to see the gambling table as a war of money. People with bigger wallets use a different method to measure risks. Matching bets is a Sisyphean task that often forgets about the fun and luck that are at the heart of gambling. Self-governance over bets is a very important problem. This freedom is what makes gambling safe. This keeps you from losing control, which happens a lot after big wins. Being in psychological conflict with yourself is like fighting to stay inside your own limits. In this story, the amount of the bet doesnt matter. The story about self-control and happiness wins. If its the money, let happiness be the only thing at stake. Winning is short-lived, but playing with joy and moderation will last forever. |

Beginners in crypto gambling should never bet more than they can afford to lose. I learned this the hard way by watching swings that would confuse a veteran trader. Crypto volatility magnifies gains and losses, making it a double-edged sword.
Then, skepticism is your best friend. Focus on whats real despite the noise. Is a platform reputable? Do their games prove fair? Transparency is everything. Many consider Stake.com top-tier since it meets all these criteria.
Remember that crypto gambling is a marathon, not a sprint. Maintaining pace is essential. Dont chase losses, because the house edge is a reality, and over time, it always has its way. Join the community, learn, and follow trends. And here in bitcointalk, we has a great user community, which is valuable.

Giving advise specially into your friend isnt really that a bad thing, there are really just that those people who dont really just that listen no matter how hard you do tell them or make them realize. This is why im not really that a fan when it comes on giving out advises considering that im not really that kind of person whose really have that kind of patience when it comes to this no matter how close we are. As long i have done my part on telling on what are the things should be done or whats really that good for you then it would be final and if you dont tend to listen then you are the ones who would really be that leading into your decisions.It is really just that sad to look into those people whom you are close or being best friend who had wrecked out their lives due to gambling or on whatever things that theyre getting involved with just because on making bad decisions in life which they do really end up on negative things. I dont think that things you are really that tending to get involved with are considered automatically as cross addictions on which we know that diverting out our attention into something that would distract us but as long you wouldn't really be that engaging too much then it should be fine. Giving advice, especially to friends, isnt always met with open ears. People often dont listen, no matter how much you try to make them see the light. Its frustrating, I know. Im not the most patient person either. When I give advice, I expect it to be taken seriously because I dont waste words on trivialities. Now, gambling is not just a game; its a serious business. When people get involved in gambling, they're playing with fire. I've seen too many lives, especially those close to me, get wrecked because they didnt listen to good advice. They thought they were in control, but they werent Its not about cross addictions or distractions. Its about knowing the limits. Engage too much, and you're in dangerous territory. I believe in being proactive, not reactive. You see a friend heading down that path, you intervene. You do your part, sure, but dont just walk away. Be relentless. If they dont listen, its on them, but at least you know you did everything you could. That's what being a friend is about. Thats what being a responsible human being is about. |

From what I felt after watching this match, Real Madrid's overall performance was similar to the previous matches. Only Bellingham's performance has been slightly weaker. And Bellingham's poor performance kept Madrid from winning. Madrid had 63% ball possession in this match. A total of 22 shots on goal, while Rayo Vallecano's players made only 4. I would say because the team was dependent on Bellingham's performance. So the impact of Bellingham not playing well has been seen in the overall squad. While Joselu managed to hit some good shots, Vini's performance was as usual very poor.
So far I can say Jude Bellingham is the best signing of the summer because he has transformed Real Madrid to a more deadly attacking side. His goal contributions this season are superb, what a brilliant way to kick start his Madrid career and if he goes on like this I bet he will be the next big name in the game in this generation. But I have to say that calling Jude Bellingham the best summer deal might be a bit early, but I support that view! I've watched every Real Madrid game he's played in and cant deny his effect. Its not easy for someone his age to go from playing middle to being a key attacking force. I wasnt sure about him because Real already has a great team, but he's fit right in. I think he's not only on the way to becoming a big name, but also a football hero if he keeps going in this direction. I saw the game against Rayo Vallecano, and even though there were no goals, his play was a bright spot in what was otherwise a difficult game for Madrid. |

 Source: https://twitter.com/DeadlineDayLive/status/1721502144996470820It seems that Marcos Alonso and Sergi Roberto will not be offered new contracts by Barcelona and of course both will be free agents next season. Marcos Alonso was acquired by Barcelona as a free agent from Chelsea last season and Barcelona couldn't keep him anymore considering he was starting to age. On the other hand, Sergi Roberto, who is a veteran at Barcelona, seems to have run out of time and we often see him just filling the bench. Apart from that, I'm also not sure if Barcelona has good finances to keep these old players. So I think maybe before the two leave as free agents next season, Barcelona will open offers from any team in January. Do you think this is the right decision from Barcelona? I think that Barcelona's choice not to continue the contracts of Marcos Alonso and Sergi Roberto was based on practicality rather than loyalty. Even though it's painful, this move is the best way for the club to save money since its finances are in bad shape. They're not old by any means, but in today's fast-paced football, even stars that aren't shining as brightly are often thrown out. I find it amusing, if a little angry, that the same school that used to value legacy and contribution now seems to care more about saving pennies than keeping their own. |
