You know that bitcoin when it first introduce, there was a lot of false information or propaganda  in which people which used it to tarnish the images of bitcoin, Even that time you will be afraid of it because of the information of it was not friendly, it's based on many people has adventure into it and make sustainable profit that is the reason while some is considering the fact that they came in into bitcoin at wrong time, no time you come bitcoin is waste because the values is not constant.

This your ideology is real, because from the consent people were no believing cryptocurrency and more especially bitcoin, so base on what they heard about online currency and online business, Ponzi scheme even made it very difficult for them to trust bitcoin because of a lot collapses or crash of Ponzi scheme investment platforms, so that put fear to the eyes of people who is deformed of bitcoin management and domination, i should say that is the major reason while some are afraid of bitcoin till extent that btc is getting more firm everyday.

The only thing i have used bitcoin as exchange is clothes and shoes and the person in charge of the boutique really like cryptocurrency and he usually accept payment with anything concerning cryptocurrency, the first time i went there to purchase wears, i went there with fiat but when i saw the sign post that states that a buyer can make a payment with bitcoin then i changed my mind to pay with bitcoin, but  the charge paying with bitcoin is even lesser than payment with fiat, so i made payment with $200.

Personally i don't believe in manual or monthly prediction of bitcoin, because the signal you may think is accurate via increment of cryptocurrency especially bitcoin and it might be error, so prediction does not work out base on my idealogy, so bull market occur base on market determination, relaying on prediction is safe decision.

Thanks @hilariousandco for your understanding towards this case, because at least average member of this noble institution will leaarn a lesson via Plagiarism weather by intensional or unintentional, at this moment MPG will take absolutely correction via his post, so congratulations to MPG and also my regards to hilariousandco.

Actually what whenever you take serious will definitely take you serious, for those person's who took bitcoin as a job knows the benefit of cryptocurrency and more especially bitcoin, besides my one of my friend dropped out of from government work because bitcoin and more especially trading, and when i asked he, he respond to me that he prefer managing his coins than working with conditions, so it's a personal determination.

I think this issue will be ironed out amicably because it's not good to lost account of a reputable member of the community irrespective of it's slight mistake, we do all know that no one is island of knowledge and no body is exempted of mistake, MPG has made a mistake by not adding a source or a link, and when looking at it via his explanation initially via loyceV plagiarism post, he made a mentioned that the topic was locked when they found out that the topic is irrelevant and their was no means for he to edit and add the source, i think with such point of MPG we have to read meaning to his request and most especially forum mods and give him privilege for second chance at least temporary ban..this is my own point of view as a forum mate.

I noticed that while some people adventure into copy and paste work is because they are inquisitive to rank up to another level and also they are lazy of making their own post, it's obvious that this community is made of initiative and creativity and people that Lacks such ability is people that duely engaged into copy and paste articles, and some of them do it intensionally while some do it out of ignorance from my perspective.

Shall it obvious that plagiarism has it penalty but considering the fact that the account of MPG don't have any further plagiarised work i think he should be considered a temporary ban instead of permanent ban and after sometime or period of it's mistake punishment he can as well join a signature campaign, because looking at his account per say he really contribute immensely to the community.

I don't really know while some person's engaged in plagiarism, if someone wants to impact knowledge to another person through someone's work or already existing articles i think the best option is that after using the work you have to add the source to indicate that is work is does not belong to you, some people claim that they are author of the work, and that is one of the major reason that put them into trouble.

The challenges we are having here is that plagiarism cases has not been taking seriously or effectively any more, if really look at the level of copy and paste works people commit here it will discouraged you, let us ask ourselves while and reason some keep on involving into plagiarism, because they want to grow fast.

I noticed that someone will be caught via plagiarised work and nothing will happen to the user while it's stipulated in the rules and regulations of the forums that the community forbid plagiarism, at least anyone involve should face the penalty, we are meant to bring solution to problems by using our initiatives not by pasting already made articles without indicating that is already made work.

Yeah accepted binance is a blockchain, it's a errors via fast typing, i was trying to type electrum.

We have different non custodial Wallet and custodial Wallet so it's base on you to select the one that is suitable to you, so making it so simple and easier you have to  use Google searching button, then Google will list the wallet to you and you have to install the application, But i will prefe you to use electrum but other's are there.

Using a common knowledge, anything you know recently is new to you, like 2010 and 2011 not everyone in the forum knows about bitcoin but just of recent the awareness of bitcoin covered everywhere and people began to know bitcoin, and some geographical environment as we are discussing now don't know what's bitcoin while some knows, it's when you know bitcoin it will be valid or valueless base on the explanation and understanding of it, so many people has heard about cryptocurrency or bitcoin in particular but the challenge they are having is that they don't believe in bitcoin.

I don't think giving Merit is base on agreement and if it's base on an agreement many people won't has ranked up today because they will be conflict between two user's, and if it's has done like what you stipulates it's absolutely abusing of Merit system because Merit will be regulated instead of circulation, we don't have to agree with anyone before giving out Merit, the aim of giving Merit  to users is for growth due to hardworking through quality post making.

The option to newbies is general option to every user provided that you are here, no option that is special to any rank or position, i think what you come to your mind as a beginner is to get the attention of the community and also acclimatized with their policies or norms before looking place to earn bitcoin, in summary, here is a community that is meant with different knowledge and per say can acquire knowledge here without payment.

In the beginning as a newbie or a new user in the community you are meant to understand the methods of posting at first before engaging in any conversation or communication, getting merit is the major of the forums but merit is needed to get to new height, so earning Merit is by your reactions towards another person post or creating a topic that is worthy to emulate, so the forum needs to learn from you and you also need to learn from the forum, which i can say that creativity is the primary objectives to earn Merit.

Learning from someone mistakes is actually good but not agree to be victims of problem because at times its advisable to follow protocols, so relating it to the community here, as a beginner reading posts made by the senior colleagues is important and it really helps to elevate people, and also binding on the rules and regulations is another thing we should embrace for the community, please in summary don't allow mistake to occur before learning on how to avoid it.

Actually bitcoin can exist without because no transaction fiat currency can as well do and bitcoin can't do that, without purchasing of local needs with fiat because i strongly believe that so many person's is still ignorant of bitcoin but in exception of that bitcoin can be use to afford anything fiat can afford, in terms of exchanges of fiat to Good's, we can equally exchanges bitcoin without converting to fiat to car, or any other thing we really wants.

Making a payment with is never be new measure to our society or community today because before i joined  the community the information is all over around the corner that someone purchased items with bitcoin and items was pizza, which many people has been maky a payment with cryptocurrency more especially pizza another any other thing, i could the last time i saw a child on the street playing alongside the road during school time then i asked her why are you playing all alone she said that they sent back from school because of school fees then i want with fiat or cash but took her to school and after explanation i made a payment with bitcoin and the management accepted it, bitcoin is viral and everyone wants you to pay with bitcoin.
