If in future, crypto is completely banned in my country and holding, trading mining become illegal, can I go to some foreign country on the pretext of doing some job and sell my crypto once I landed in foreign land and come back in my country with all the money?
Your best bet would be to sell your BTCs p2p or to sell them personally by meeting up with people. As dangerous as it sounds, that would only be your remedy in order to bypass this prohibition imposed by the government. If you attempt to bring back your BTCs from another country, store them in an exchange but never deposit them into a bank. I have a friend of mine that exchange large amounts of BTCs to the bank and the latter froze his account due to alleged anomalies regarding this huge transactions. This is also considering that BTCs in our country are NOT prohibited.

Holy sh*t! That is actually my first reaction when I read the news about an exhibition match between two of my favorite boxing fighters of all time. I actually give both of them the recognition since they are only the few fighters who went toe-to-toe with Manny Pacquiao during his prime.
I remember, these two boxers are very respectable on their respective fields as everyone actually loves them! To see that they are going to have an exhibition match brings me back to the days when Pacquiao dominated the boxing sport before. I also remember that Pacquiao mentioned that his fight with Cotto was considered his most difficult fight; to see that Cotto and Marquez in the boxing ring again is every boxer fan's dream!

So even if your rich, and your net worth is increasing with increase in the price of Bitcoin, after everyone have adopted Bitcoins globally, even your richness wouldn't be that much rich, since the value of the things that can be brought with those bitcoins would actually grow the same rate as the bitcoin(due to decreasing productivity)
Interesting argument, but this assumes that every people in the whole world owns a cryptocurrency which disregards the fact that only a few possess some. Currently, it can be argued that the people who are knowledgeable in the cryptocurrency space are not that many nor not that few. Because of its current price in the market, people are actually HODLing most of the coins awaiting for its next fork which has the potential of doubling its price yet again. Given the fact that not everyone owns crypto, this puts the person on a pedestal as this is considered as an alternative mode of investing.

Please I only ask to know, we are here to be directed for things that are unknown to us to be known, knowledge is power and no knowledge is useless, I'm ready to learn I need help. And I don't know the board that is good for this question.
To generalize my answer to your questions, signature campaigns are a form of advertisements started by businesses in order to provide exposure for their activities. Mostly, gambling websites advertise their business by providing a signature campaign across the forum. The reason on why it is called a 'signature campaign' is because the forum enables the use of signatures every time a member posts a comment in a thread. The higher your rank is, the better that one can have as a signature. Gambling and signature campaigns are two different worlds. The former involves a risk in which a person wagers something; whereas the latter is a form of labor in which you have to comply the rules stated in the campaign.

It' s part of the game. In sports, you never know what is going to happen. And if you're going to place bets, you can bet it'll be a roller-coaster ride. And that's where, for us, we love the game. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) At the end of the day, you would realize that everything involves mostly luck. Even if the team that you are betting are the reigning champion or the dominating team, there will always be that chance that the weakest team may be able to defeat them. I remember watching the 2016 NBA playoffs where the Golden State Warriors have a record-breaking 73-9 standing on the regular season. They were able to dominate the entire playoff run but they still manage to blow a 3-1 lead in the finals against Cleveland Cavaliers. It really goes to show that in every aspect, there can be no absolute guarantee regardless of the team standings in sports.

Lol, interesting investment some people have here. Not to keep bitcoin, but to buy graphic cards ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Just for speculation or using them in mining? Just interesting how it's going with it. I know a few guys, he regularly buys graphics cards to mine coins, in addition, often some other additional hardware. I guess the guy's purpose is not to mine coins, since miners often buy a lot of hardware at the same time, the money you earn from signature campaigns is never enough to buy it (or he could be an amateur miner). He criticizes 50% for buying, so I guess, he doesn't mine ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) Well the money you earn from campaign signatures serve as a purpose either for long-term investment or for leisure. I wouldn't say that buying hardware using campaign signature earnings is 'never enough' but it will take a person a relatively long time to purchase one. Heck, even a person can buy a lambo using campaign signature earnings but this will depend on how he will participate. In terms of mining, I do think that it can still be profitable but you need to have a large capital in order to compete with other miners as well.

I felt the effects of not HODLing my coins back when I first started the forum last 2017. The signature campaign proceeds went to one of my failed investments; and others went to my personal purchases.
Last week, I saw my blockchain record and observe that the total amount of bitcoins I have received amounted to around $18,000~. If I did not spend them, I would have saved some money for further investments. That is why, if you really need to spend cash or if you are in a dire position, then that would ONLY be the time to convert your bitcoins to cash.

Hmm, the gambling industry brings more good than harm during this pandemic economically speaking. As the government struggles to look for alternatives in order to gain revenue, taxing online gambling websites may not only contribute to the country's revenue but this would also enable the government to create projects/opportunities for people who are deeply affected by the COVID-19 virus. What do you think ? Will the government think twice before keeping the gambling market the same or will they revert back when everything is normal.
I do think that the government would seriously consider about the situation but I doubt that they will do anything that would affect the online gambling industry. The reason on why the government tax is because it provides revenue. Revenue gives the government the fund in order to create establishments which would be catering to the population.

That is one of the primary reasons on why most investors include cryptocurrencies in their investment portfolio as they can be a perfect instrument for short-term investments or for day trading.
Unlike stocks, the value of cryptocurrencies are very volatile as they happen every single of the day. Unlike in stocks where there is a designated time for the market, cryptocurrencies are being traded every single minute which explains its high volatility. Despite its volatility, this may can be a double-edged sword especially if you enter the market on its peak.

I remember back in 2017, I was new to the cryptocurrency world and the forum. Fortunately, I was able to earn at least a few bitcoins from all the campaign signatures that I have participated in the past and I was looking for ways to earn as much. A good friend of mine invited me to a conference of USI-TECH in our country as it was their anniversary. I was able to meet lots of people who have invested thousands of dollars into purchasing their so called 'packages'. Unfortunately, I got convinced and I deposited 0.01955 BTC (roughly around $100-$120 at that time) to their website which all came from my signature campaign earnings. After a few months, their website crashed and all of the money that I have invested into the project were gone. This fuelled my anger and this motivated me to be very active into spotting fake projects across the forum. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.postimg.cc%2FTwkzznrB%2F168847801-916147632556090-4776611803208864513-n.png&t=663&c=Gn959hbpCx6Wtw)

Added eight [8] new FAKE projects on the list. The list keeps on growing as the number of scammers are increasing. I really urge everyone to report these bastards in order to keep this forum clean and safe. Good luck, everyone. Last updated: March 21, 2021

Good catch on spotting the difference! I checked the domain of those respective websites and it seems like the original ONE has a standing and legit domain for over a hundred days, as compared to the fake one which does not have a legitimate domain. This is clearly a sign of someone attempting to cheat and scam people, which cannot be tolerated under this forum. Compare to two below: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.postimg.cc%2FSsYqd2hq%2FScreen-Shot-2021-04-04-at-6-15-08-PM.png&t=663&c=4HQDAY2HtWYP6Q)

If you are the only one using the internet 5 GB is just enough and you will have an on-time experience betting in any games in the casinos but if you have seven people sharing your connection, you need a high plan, gambling needs speed in connectivity or any activity online where you want to make profit.
Are you talking about a 5gb cap on the internet or are you referring to 5mbps? The former would put you in a risk of having an internet connection cap which would disconnect you once it has reached its limit; while the latter would work but expect slow internet connection. If several people using multiple devices are connected on the internet, then expect intermittent disconnections. The remedy here would either be: (1) upgrade your internet connection plan; or (2) gamble in a time where only a few people are connected. Connectivity issues are outside the ambit of online gambling websites in which this concern should be addressed on the part of the player.

To give you an actual example, I've been participating in campaign signatures ever since I joined this forum last 2017. Unfortunately, I have spend most of my earnings to purchase academic books for my studies.
When I stumbled upon my blockchain transaction, I saw that since 2017, I have garnered at least around 0.8 btc overall from all of my campaign earnings. If I did not spend any of those BTCs, its value today should have been around $50,000+ as compared to its value before which was less than $10,000.
That is why, I highly suggest to HODL your bitcoins and wait until you desperately need some money, then that will be the time that you would cash them out.

In your opinion, can someone trading without experience or knowledge?
Personally, it is possible but the experience can be similar to driving a car for the first time without knowing the use of pedals. In trading, knowledge about the fundamental and technical analysis of a cryptocurrency are essential in order to mitigate the risk of losing your money. By those indicators, you would be able speculate safely the trend of its price either it increases/decreases. Of course, it is possible to trade without knowing those indicators but you increase the risk of you losing money by a significant amount.

In addition to the findings made by OP, upon checking the website of their project, the pictures of their team members seems to be computer generated AI as well due to the disproportions of some of the facial features, backgrounds, and their shirts. In addition, the angle of the team member's picture are a clear example of a computer-generated AI picture.
Although there is no absolute guarantee or method to know if such pictures are computer-generated, by adding all the evidences against the project concludes that their project is most likely a scam. I highly advise OP to open a flag against him.

As someone who grew up in the boom of online games in the market, I would definitely say that there should be method in order to balance these loot boxes. Unfortunately, I notoriously spend huge amounts of cash for online game cosmetics and most of the rare stuff came from loot boxes which are priced ridiculously high.
Kids would be enticed into spending some cash in loot boxes as they contain rare skins. This actually equates to gambling where this method circumvents the law prohibiting gambling for children. While I also understand that these gaming companies need to profit, other methods should be chosen in order to distinguish the fine line between gambling and loot boxes.
