If such a themed bar was opened up in my Neighborhood or town, it would be my favorite hangout.
I totally agree with you! This is also a great marketing move because all the crypto enthusiasts for sure would go there, especially to meet new people interested in cryptos as well. I hope this will become a trend.

...
Elon's impact on the crypto market is no longer very big but there are still many people who relate to it when the bitcoin price goes up.  Elon must have ulterior motives why he had to make that tweet, he must be trying to raise the price of dogecoin again but to no avail lol.
I do not agree, Elon's impact is big on the markets. And if someday he decides to sell all his coins and make a tweet about that, then we will see a big crash in the markets. But since Elon is bitcoin-friendly this will not happen, but I don't doubt Elon will manipulate the crypto markets again as he did in the past.
Elon Musk has some impact just because the crypto market is full of people without any knowledge of this world, people who think they'll become millionaire in a few weeks, then at the first -5% they sell everything. If someone decides to buy or sell bitcoin depending on Elon Musk's tweets, well, I pity him, it means he's not able to think with his own brain. Luckily this kind of people will soon disappear because they'll lose everything.
3383  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Btc and usdt people trust on: March 24, 2022, 02:52:01 AM
Traders and alot rich traders investors are in 2 things.
Btc and usdt as USDT is safe place to hold funds but how the exchangers protect this ?
Imagine if something happens with usdt many people will lose so much that they never cant deal with crypto anymore so what is the exvhangers security plan to fully protect customers ?
As myself fully depend on usdt thats how much i trust usdt and usdc also.

People want to be in crypto if they can funds in stable coins to give them safety but if usdt not safe as there is rumours about usdt then all the crypto game will be over.
I can never sleep well if i know my money will be in volatile coins so USDT is now very important and gives confidence for investors and crypto lovers such us myself
I see a lot of confusion in this post. First of all Tether clarified their position with the US government, so that kind of FUD is quite old, and if you really don't trust USDT and want to have stable coins then there are plenty of options out there: BUSD, USDC, UST... Anyway I still don't understand why Tether should scam the whole ecosystem, how they could make more money with a scam rather than keep making a ton of money every single day.
Ok now i trust usdt
Besides your sarcastic answer, I'm not saying you must trust USDT, I told you some facts, real facts, regarding USDT, that's all. My life won't change wether you trust or not USDT, I simply tried to help you explaining better the situation, if you get offended because you write stuff that doesn't make sense and someone explains you why you're wrong, well, not my problem Smiley

3385  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: El Salvador's President Bukele gets An 85% Approval Rating on: March 23, 2022, 03:57:15 PM
The problem with people of El Salvador adopting Bitcoin is that for one to do it, he/she needs to be tech savvy. You can't use Bitcoin if you at least never used a mobile phone. I'm not saying that no one in El Salvador doesn't use a mobile phone and I'm sure that in big cities that number is pretty big. But people in rural areas have probably heard about Bitcoin but haven't used it. According to this report (I don't know how trust worthy it is), only half of El Salvador's population uses Internet.
And do you think that the situation in the first world's big cities is different? I don't think so. Probably the only difference is that people did hear about bitcoin, but I don't think many of them actually used it. Knowing the existence of something doesn't automatically mean that you also use it. Right now I feel that the majority of people are ok using Apple Pay, Google Pay, etc, not (yet) bitcoin.
3386  Economy / Speculation / Re: How come BTC is not at least $75,000 yet? on: March 23, 2022, 03:49:03 PM
The USD is losing value. The EUR is losing value. All national coins are inflationary, energy prices are through the roof and still BTC is only $36,500! People should buy BTC like crazy, this is something I don't understand, they keep using the crappy FIAT instead. FIAT will all make you poor! Don't come crying here after when BTC hits $100K, but FIAT is the worst investment someone can make these days. BTC is still cheap as peanuts considering its potential, too bad people don't see it, have fun staying poor and keep making those bankers rich. Unbelievable.
Right now there still are too many things going on: covid is not done yet, prices are going up, uncertainty because of the war... Many people are still struggling to get to the end of the month or simply filling their tank, I can understand why bitcoin doesn't seem to be a priority right now, even though it's actually a great moment to accumulate.
3387  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Elon Musk Wont Sell his Bitcoin on: March 23, 2022, 03:24:35 PM
Elon Musk won't sell his bitcoins, he tweeted this and we see no big movement in the market. There was a time when his tweets had big effects on the market. This guy is losing his value by promoting Dogecoin.
Besides the fact that I'm sick and tired of people who keep mentioning Elon Musk like the crypto world depends on him, I don't find this news surprising: he doesn't need to sell, he doesn't need money, why should he sell now to accumulate few other billions of dollars he doesn't even need? I find way more impressive the Average Joe who won't sell even though his life could actually improve, but the Average Joe doesn't post that on Twitter.

ahahahah
ti presto i soldi a patto che non adotti bitcoin
esatto.. sta gente lo TEME peggio della PESTE o di una GUERRA (chissa perche poi!? come fai ad avere paura di un cacciavite?)
lo trovo assurdo, patetico ... da clown
Il FMI già da tempo sta adesso pure a El Salvador e paragonandolo alla peste secondo me non ci sei andato troppo lontano: per me lo vedono come un virus e non vogliono che inizi a diffondersi, ma oramai dubito potranno veramente fare qualcosa a parte minacciare. Con El Salvador il nostro "virus" ha trovato il primo ospite, ora dovrebbe arrivare il secondo, e poi via via gli altri, con buona pace del FMI.
3389  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Honduras to declare Bitcoin as a legal tender? on: March 23, 2022, 04:54:11 AM
I'd like to hear your thoughts about this.
Is there anyone with negative thoughts? I don't think so, I guess we all agree it's another huge step for bitcoin! Before El Salvador, now (hopefully) Honduras, soon other countries will follow and it's gonna be very interesting to see when we're gonna have the first very important country actually use bitcoin. Switzerland could be one, but I'm already dreaming too much, I'd be happy to see Paraguay, Panana, Costa Rica for example be added to the list.
3390  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Crypto.com will be a sponsor of the 2022 FIFA World Cup on: March 23, 2022, 04:50:27 AM
I am really curious why these huge exchanges are really into these sports sponsorships as I recall before FTX Exchange was also involved with partnerships/sponsorships that are related to sports and they have also renamed an arena.
I believe it is good marketing that is somehow near with cryptocurrency it's like most of their target are still not in crypto or no idea at all about crypto, I am curious if it is effective.
I guess it's for exposure. A football match (or soccer for the Americans  Grin) is watched by millions of people all over the world, it's way better than a tv commercial which is usually seen only by those people watching tv at a certain time, during a certain program, in a certain country. You advertise during an English Premier League match and your advertisement will be seen in 5 continents at the same time.

In realtà nella guerra vera e propria la gran parte delle spese se ne va in logistica: spese per benzina, per sposare i soldati, spostare i rifornimenti, insomma dei costi enormi che non sono "produttivi" neanche per i venditori di armi.
Non a caso si sono visti immagini e filmati di carri armati russi fermi perché avevano finito la benzina (tra l'altro ora che ne parliamo mi chiedo se utilizzino benzina normale o qualcosa di particolare, non mi sono mai fatto questa domanda) e mangiavano razioni scadute da tempo. Colgo l'occasione per consigliarvi un paio di film sul tema, nulla di impegnativo, probabilmente li avete già visti: Lord of War (con Nicolas Cage) e War Dogs (con Jonah Hill). Non sono sicuramente documentari ma fanno comunque riflettere sugli interessi che ci sono dietro alle guerre ed i relativi costi.
3392  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 19 Million BTC in two weeks' time on: March 22, 2022, 05:38:00 PM
To know how much bitcoin have permanently lost can be impossible for now, but probably after many centuries it will be possible, the untouched bitcoins can be assumed to have been lost, using addresses connected to it for the tracking. But right now, the amount of bitcoin lost can not be known.
I don't think we need to wait for centuries for something like that, probably the bitcoins that didn't move in the next 20-30 years top can be considered lost forever. I really don't see a single reason why someone shouldn't move a satoshi after 30 years, especially because he would be at least 50-60 year old at that point. Hodling till death is kinda extreme  Grin
3393  Local / Italiano (Italian) / Re: El Salvador: Legge per rendere bitcoin moneta a corso legale on: March 22, 2022, 05:34:17 PM
Questa è MERAVIGLIOSA

L'Argentina ha contrattato con l'IMF un prestito di 45 miliardi di coriandoli verdi (che ovviamente serve a ristrutturare un precedente prestito).

Condizione dell'accordo?

Che il Governo si impegni a scoraggiare l'uso di bitcoin
I paesi dell'America Latina sono sempre stati gestiti molto male, ma l'Argentina veramente sta facendo scuola nella peggior forma possibile. Non imparano mai dai propri errori, sempre gli stessi politici, sempre le stesse decisioni, sempre le stesse cose. Incredibile. Per quello che hanno dovrebbero essere il fiore all'occhiello del Sud America e invece...
3394  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 19 Million BTC in two weeks' time on: March 22, 2022, 04:14:22 PM
19 Million BTC in two weeks' time, then by 2027, 95% of the 21 Million bitcoins' limit will be in circulation. Then it will take 113 years to issue the last 5%.
And in the meantime 80% of all US dollars in existence were printed in the last 22 months. It's absolutely crazy when we think about it. And yet the majority of the people think bitcoin is useless and/or a scam SMH. I wonder when the rest of the world will finally wake up.

io non capisco infatti che senso ha (per la russia) fare guerre
non ha senso, e' un fallimento tattico strategico su tutti i fronti
economici, finanziari, bellici
non capisco chi ha consigliato Vladimiro Puttin a far cosi?
Io di geopolitica so poco però con un soggetto come Putin tendo a pensare che si tratti quasi più di un qualcosa di personale: che sia ego, nostalgia dell'URSS piuttosto che non riesca ad accettare che la Russia non venga più vista e, perché no, temuta, come qualche decennio fa. Faccio davvero fatica a pensare che il resto dei suoi collaboratori siano davvero d'accordo con lui, al tempo stesso chi avrebbe il coraggio di andargli contro? Iniziare una guerra alle porte dell'Europa nel 2022 non ha assolutamente nessun senso. Mi chiedo se sapremo mai le ragioni reali.
fonti attendibili del movimento 5 stars dicono che e' in corso una battaglia del bene (putin) contro le forse del male, ergo i rettiliani
in pratica putin e' la sola speranza del genere umano!
fonti attendibili eh! GOMBLOTTO !11!!11
Guarda sai cos'è probabilmente l'unica cosa buona che ha detto/fatto Putin in questa guerra? La legge con punizioni severe contro le fake news. Tralasciamo il fatto che ovviamente per lui qualsiasi notizia contro la Russia sia fake news, però al punto al quale siamo arrivati ci dovrebbero davvero essere punizioni severe per chi crea e diffonde fake news, oramai la situazione è fuori controllo da anni. Scusate lo sfogo personale Grin

<…> I read the document and I'm not sure that those people were actually interviewed on the phone rather than they were adults that own(ed) a mobile phone: "muestra representativa de la población adulta con teléfono celular". That's the way I understand that part.
That’s because they logically needed a phone in order to be called and interviewed on the phone  Wink

The technical data on the survey methodology stated that (translated):
Quote
Type of Interview -> Personal, to cellular phones
(i.e. phone call interview)
I didn't notice the table on the bottom, you're right, but the article is not well written: I speak Spanish and I have Spanish mother tongue in my family, I asked and they understood it the same way I did. So now I'm even more surprised that there actually are people who accept to answer to political polls on the phone...

La cosa che è però evidente è che tutto rimane scritto per sempre nella blockchain.
Se parliamo di bitcoin sì, non saprei però con i mixer come sia la situazione. Altrimenti penso che la cosa più semplice sia convertire tutto in qualche privacy coin tipo Monero che, correggetemi se sbaglio, non dovrebbe essere tracciabile. Rubare dei bitcoin e tenerli sotto forma di bitcoin sarebbe estremamente stupido.
aggiungerei anche, un conto anonimizzare 0.1, 1 BTC di un privato cittadino, un conto 100K BTC rubati a Bitfinex.
Allo stato attuale hai assolutamente ragione però dico anche che dovremmo farci tutti uno screenshot di questo messaggio e tra 10 anni controllare se effettivamente non valga la pena deanonimizzare quel 0,1 BTC, potremmo aver cambiato tutti idea da un bel pezzo per allora  Grin
3399  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: El Salvador's President Bukele gets An 85% Approval Rating on: March 22, 2022, 12:01:13 AM
This is the base publication that gives credit to the said 85% approval of Bukele amongst his citizens (in Spanish):
https://www.cidgallup.com/uploads/publication/publication_files/publication_1646943838000.pdf

Honestly, it seems like an exceedingly basic survey, where around 1.200 people were called on the phone between January and February of this year, and asked whether they approved their president’s management. This was performed in multiple latam countries.
I read the document and I'm not sure that those people were actually interviewed on the phone rather than they were adults that own(ed) a mobile phone: "muestra representativa de la población adulta con teléfono celular". That's the way I understand that part. Anyway I never believe the polls, 85% looks way too high. I'm also impressed by the 47% of Mexico, AMLO is a total joke, how half the population could be happy is a mystery, unless of course these polls are totally made up Roll Eyes
3400  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto Scams now the second largest in the world on: March 21, 2022, 11:41:56 PM
Reason why government regulation is very important, imagine how the number has grown from 7th position to 2nd position within a short period, the whole cryptocurrency existence is just a decade plus and already the rate of scam is at the 2nd position, what will happen in few years ahead? if not for anything, regulations can reduce the number of scams and rug pull a lot. Scammers are taking advantage of the decentralize space to carry out their terrible act.  Many of these new projects are created to deceive investors, rug pull is a common practice among new project. If nothing is done, the scam rate will keep increasing.
It depends on the way that the government(s) will decide to proceed: if the regulation is too strict that's not gonna be good for this world, so be careful wishing more regulations. At the same time people need to wake up, the majority of the new "investors" think they can become rich in a few weeks/months investing few hundreds bucks and expecting a 100x, that's the reason they usually choose the worst coins in the market. That's just a natural selection.
