The Equivalent Network Time (ENT) for Epoch 3 (since May 2020 till now) and Epoch 6 (circa May 2032) shows that miners will have to spend about 384 seconds to mine 1 BTC since May 2032, that is 8-fold spent-time than currently.

Consequently, Bitcoin will become more scarce, at least in eyes and perspective of Bitcoin miners.

Additionally, more Bitcoin will be lost. I expect the rate of lost Bitcoin will be slow down than in the past. Because the higher the BTC price is, the more carefulness people will take care of their Bitcoin and BTC wallets.

Currently, probably 4.2M BTC was lost [1]. The cut-off to estimate probable lost BTC here is 5-year+ unspent UTXOs.

By the way, let's look at the post in June 2010 from satoshi about lost Bitcoins.

Plagiarism is treated very strict on the forum and when it is detected by anyone on the forum, reported to moderators and get handled, mostly the result would be permanent ban.

If a user who plagiarised does not have good net-contribution on the forum, there will be no second chance and permanent ban is irreversible.

• Welcome message. It is mentioned in the welcome message.

Sometimes, you will use draft page to find your past posts, or draft of your unpublished posts. The draft page saves last 100 posts only. See Drafts and Draft page - Pros & Cons

You used conflicted words. Stable, volatile, consistently that make your first paragraph is unclear in its meaning.

The fact is Bitcoin goes to mainstream since 2020 and I am sure more people on Earth began to join bitcoin market since the last year. You are arbitrarily using 50% to make your statement more impressively. I don't believe the real figure is close to 50% and don't believe you read it somewhere else then mentioning it in your topic.

The pandemic makes people understand more about the traditional financial system and the intrinsic hyper inflational characteristics of fiat currencies. QEs give people more money and unofficially give them reasons to join cryptocurrency.

How the world compete with the pandemic; How long will it take to end the pandemic; How serious are pandemic effects on societies, financial systems after all. Many factors will raise awareness of people about Bitcoin inflationary supply and its scarcity. With or without pandemic, people will be more awared of such. Fortunately, the pandemic boosts the awareness much faster.

Two mandatory before posting: read and search. I invite you to two topics.  

• Newbies - Read before posting (one of sticky threads in Beginners & Help board)
• [Guide] Searching effectively
• Quote locked threads, 120-day merit total, custom themes, and other good stuff

One minor recommendation. Your text size looks a bit large and I think you will make your topic looks better if you reduce text size smaller a little bit.

• Twiends.com - Grow Your Twitter Responsibly Free
• [GUIDE]TWIENDS.COM - get countless followers on Twitter.. See the introduction for details about Twiends.com

Do you know about Twiends.com, OP? You only need 100 followers that is not a big number and you can easily to get it.

It is because of what you said but also because of Yobit approach to run their signature campaign on the forum.

They did not have announcement thread about their campaign, on the forum. They run its on their website and in the first round, they opened it from Full member rank and above. Additionally, it is a paid per post campaign.

After theymos solution to ban their signature and spam participants (who were reported) a few months, they came back and kept spamming the forum. Until the take over of yahoo62278 to manage that campaign.

The fake applications on App Store are less than on Google Play but you must be careful with both.

If you want to download applications, you must download with links from official websites. The most terrible method is search with Google search, with either App Store or Google Play. Especially Google Play has many fake apps.

• Officially visit websites & download apps, not fake ones.
• Common Scams on Mobile Devices (Binance Academy)

Bitcoin is the leader of crypto market and altcoin seasons always are triggered by Bitcoin.

In bull market, altcoins will give you highest profit. Obviously, you can get it only if you choose good altcoins and hold them. Altcoins are easily to have 10x, 20x growth in bull market.

However, in the long run, Bitcoin is the safest asset for you to invest & the most profitable crypto asset for you as well.

Check with

• Altcoin season index (see the chart for top performance over the last year, 90 days, 30 days)
• Filter altcoins via their performance with https://www.blockchaincenter.net/ (choose column for your filter)
• Use Messari.io's screener: https://messari.io/screener

Bech32 address is native Segwit. You can chech the Bech32 adoption with the page from Bitcoin Wiki: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Bech32_adoption

• Invoice Addresses

You can get it from Software wallets, Hardware wallets to Exchanges. Electrum is the SPV wallet that is very light and you don't have to assign too much space in your disk to use Electrum wallet.

• Download Electrum wallet
• [Guide] How to Safely Download and Verify Electrum
• Since the version 4.1.0, Electrum wallet only show Segwit address by default when you create a new wallet. Previously, it shows Legacy and Segwit address types

Bitcoin won't replace fiat or CBDCs. Never.

It will go to mainstream, more. It will become more popular on Earth each four years because of its cyclical bullish seasons but it is not Fiat-killer or anything similar.

Keep your mind neutrally and look at Fiat currencies and CBDCs. CBDCs would be the future of government-based currencies and the younger population will more likely accept it. However, the elderly would still use fiat currencies in paper, polymer, etc.

If 51% attacks can happen with altcoin networks, it can happen with Bitcoin network.

The Bitcoin network fortunately does not have any single attack of such so far, because in early years, when Bitcoin network is small, it is unpopular, so there was no attack. Nowadays, when the network is huge, the risk is lower significantly because the cost to run 51% attack on it is very expensive & somewhat unprofitable. The community nowadays with better technologies & tools are able to fastly response to such attacks.

Imagine if nowadays, Bitcoin network has small hashrate like 8 years ago, it would be attacked very easily. Fortunately, again, it is unrealistic.

Whales don't trade like tiny investors. They are hodlers so they do neither use all their Bitcoin to trade nor trade too regularly.

You can get some overview on whale distributions & on-chain activities with following resources. In the past 30 days, there are around 150k BTC was withdrawn from exchanges. [1]

They are for on-chain activities but you can not connect them to trading activities.

Time for Bitcoin faucets are over many years and now, people have to work to earn fiats or altcoins, then use them to buy Bitcoin.

There are airdrops, faucets with altcoins, so people can join them and sell those altcoins to get Bitcoin. Do you know ICP? They run airdrop years ago but requested fees to do KYC on airdrop receivers.

It was traded about $600 months ago so airdrop receivers have good income with ICP. If they sell ICP at top, they can have about 0.01 BTC that good enough.

I disagree that you have to give anyone Bitcoin to help. Additionally, many people are close-minded and they don't want to hear about Bitcoin or cryptocurrency.

As crypto investor, you should have your vision as long term. Such news can be real, fake to manipulate price of Bitcoin in short term. It is very common when positive news spread around on social media, price soars a lot. Days later, such news are confirmed as unreal or at least, it won't be implemented too soon.

Nevertheless, long term Bitcoin will be accepted more, integrated more into many ecosystem, from small companies to big corporations, being legal tender in small nations to big nations.

It is best to avoid using public Wi-Fi but if you use it, open your VPN.

• The Security Issues in Using Public Wi-Fi  —  “Honeypots” And “Pineapples”
• Why WiFi is a Security Risk for Your Business’s Wireless Network
• A hacker intercepted your WiFi traffic, stole your contacts, passwords, & financial data.

I never store my Bitcoin, my personal details in my laptop and bring it around, connect it to the Internet especially public Wi-Fi. Important things, I store them at home, and barely connect it to the Internet.

Frankly,  I have a little fraction of Bitcoin in my laptop, but just minor amount, ready to use just in case.

People can change and the line "This user is currently ignored" reminds you that member was ignored by you. If you remember that case, have time to glance at post history to find potential changes or want to bury the hatchet, the UnIgnore button works.

Many people don't change but some of them do. And if you are open-minded, want to refresh your Ignore list, it is helpful.

You won't have to go to your Profile and check your Ignore list in Ignore User options.
Above is your Ignore list.

The forum does not have any rule about ethnic discrimination. The forum is opened for all and it is big enough to have some conflicts of interests, opinions inside.

You can agree or disagree with another and you could be right about that specific person. However, if you generalize it too much, you would be seriously wrong. There are good and bad people in same nation, same local area.

Control yourself, on what you write, what you want to read. If things are not your favorite, ignore them (members, topics, boards). Don't let such ones expose your eyes and let you unable to control your discussions. Then you will never fall into discrimination.
