I do not think that it is impossible but highly unlikely, given that most people who HODL their bitcoin from 2010 have to endure the painstakingly temptation to cash it out when its price doubled/tripled in 2012.

Maybe there are still some investors and people from the pioneer batch who still owns bitcoin but they most probably sold half or if not, more than half when its price increased tenfold in the past years. But to be honest, if I were in their position, I would have sold such btc maybe after 1-2 years of owning them. As far as I remember, I do think that satoshi hasn't spent any of his BTCs at this point.

People who opt to choose this kind of method are also the ones who are newbies in the cryptocurrency world.

Unfortunately, bitcoin has been lately categorized as a scheme that involves making 'easy' and 'quick' money. However the truth is, investing involves significant amount of risk on the part of the investor. With this in mind, scammers are taking the opportunity by devising all kinds of schemes and scams just to take advantage of this bullish run.

I advise newbies that before they transact to any other persons on the internet, it is best to seek advice or to research first before delving deeper into this kind of scheme before losing any money!

Ahh the coincidence of this fight happening on my birthday! This will definitely be a gift for me to watch another showcase of Canelo's raw skill, power, and evasive reflexes in his fight.

As per the records of Billy Joe Saunders, he is undefeated (30-0-14) but his KO rate is relatively not that impressive. This would be more difficult compared to the recent fight of Canelo but I will still be rooting for him in this fight.


Haha I understand where you are coming from but I do think that the fights of Canelo are interesting enough. The skill and the accuracy of his punches are just impeccable to watch.

Honestly, if I were fortunate enough to have BTC at that year when its price were below $100, I would have sold those bitcoins at this price.

If you were to check its price at that time, you would have feel that there is already profit waiting. You would not feel guilty as much since you literally have no idea that bitcoin would become this big, like what is happening right now. I know there are lots of posts about people trading their early garnered BTCs for something (i.e pizza bitcoin), but you cannot blame them as at that time, it was considered profitable at their end.

Interesting, may company na sinasabihan kayo na bawal kayong mag-engage sa cryptocurrencies? Are you working sa government or a private company? May mga sanctions ba kung sakaling nag invest ka dito? I am very curious as to what may happen if nagawa mo mga ito kasi as far as I know, legal ang bitcoin dito sa Pilipinas.

With regard sa community ng bitcoin dito sa bansa, I also feel like may exposure siya pero not to the extent na isa tayo sa 'active' na bansa sa btc. Madami pang tao ang hindi naniniwala sa kakayahan nito at skeptical pa sila. Pero you can see din na may mga tao na nag bibigay ng atensyon nila dito at nagiging curious na din.

Perhaps Tekken would be a good gambling pvp game since it involves skill and timing from both the players.

With regard with chess, I think that it can also be an avenue for pvp gaming. There are certain websites that cater in playing chess online (chess24, chess, lichess, etc.) with different game types (blitz, rapid, classical). As an avid chess player, this will also increase its player base which has the potential of attracting new players to the game.

Based personally from my experience, you actually don't convince them in the first place.

People who are closed-minded, usually the elderly who are used to the traditional methods, can be a pain in the ass to convince about cryptocurrencies. Even if you show them actual results and data, if they choose not to listen, then they wouldn't really do anything about it. The only way that you can convince them is if they personally stake or try investing into such in order for them to realize the potential of investing into bitcoin.

Again, you cannot convince someone who is not interested in the first place as it would only result to a waste of time. Just let them be and let them personally be interested into it.

Trust me, if you try to chase for merits then it would be relatively harder for you to earn them. Contribute quality posts or share your experience with cryptocurrency in general as it might garner the attention and focus of other members, which could garner you a merit.

The more you think about earning them, the more that you will be pressured into posting helpful topics which could hinder you further. Do not treat it as a competition, treat it as a learning experience and mechanism for you to improve your post quality.

Like what I have mentioned, if you contribute quality stuff, then merits would be the one chasing you! Good luck and have a good day.

I watched the entire fight and Canelo dismantled Yildrim in three (3) rounds.

Those three (3) rounds show the deadly accuracy, raw strength/power, and skill of Canelo as the best middleweight division champion of the world. His power shots were mostly felt by Yildrim and he was not able to recover after he got knocked out from round three. I am definitely excited for the future of Canelo and his other fights in the future. His accuracy on his uppercuts were just beautiful to watch!

Hi,

Upon checking your downloadable wallet, I scanned it using virus total and it showed that there were some malicious files installed in the wallet. However, there is a chance that such may be a false-positive presented by virus total. I do invite you to check and to further validate the files in order to avoid any confusion/doubts on the project. Please check the reference below, thanks!

Mostly, the law on supply and demand primarily dictates the value of bitcoin in the market.

Due to the nature of bitcoin having a determined amount in circulation (21 million bitcoins), the price may be dependent upon its supply/demand depending on the circumstance. Given this circumstance, whales, who own majority of the amount of bitcoins, have the potential of manipulating the price to their liking. In addition, you may also include external factors (i.e. government prohibitions, country regulations, etc.) on what drives its value on the market.

When a country accepts/prohibits the circulation of bitcoin, it may indirectly affect its price on the market.

Like what I have mentioned before, there are some fighters that claim that their defeat was due to an external cause (i.e. the other fighter was cheating, the scorecards were bias, etc.) but in fact, the problem is internal.

In Wilder's case, I think he is on the latter reason on why he lost this fight. Instead of focusing on the next fight, I think he is spending more time on blaming these external causes instead of just improving. I mean, it is relatively difficult to say especially that I am not on his shoes but he needs to be man and accept defeat in order to move on.

This is a very interesting chart to look at and people should take advantage while the price of bitcoin is in the dip.

By basing it primarily on the price history index, the price of bitcoin has been always volatile- thus, it may increase/decrease at any given time. Currently, the price of bitcoin is in the dip and I personally believe that people should purchase and HODL bitcoin for the time being. Give it maybe after 4-5 years, the price may actually increase like what has happened in the past 5-6 years ever since its inception.

This is actually very good news.

I do hope that the topic about bitcoin also focuses on the blockchain technology as a whole and its technicalities. People are actually underestimating the use of the blockchain and its modern application in our day-to-day activities. The true creation is on the blockchain as it eliminates the need for a third-party consensus in handling all of our monetary needs.

I applaud your school as they have acknowledged the limitless possibilities of the blockchain and bitcoin as its currency in the future. I also hope that other universities start to teach the same subject as what you have.

This is potentially dangerous. Even if Manny feels like his body can handle the amount of stress and punches he could take, once he reaches the age of 40-60, then that would be the time that he would feel its impact and damage.

Lots of famous boxers have been permanently incapacitated and injured due to the prolong continuation of this sport. While its monetary rewards may be considered one of the highest in terms of payment, its toll on the body too is the most in terms of risk. With that being said, I really think Manny should consider this to be his last fight.

Glad to see this campaign running again, hhampuz!

Judging by your post history, you mainly post on topics which are filled with spams. Also, people rarely merit users under the altcoin section. If you truly want to earn merits, improve your post history by contributing something in the forum. I know it is easier said than done but lots of users who started as a newbie managed to earn thousands of merits in a matter of months.

Don't be in a rush and just take your time learning every step of the way.

As someone who lives in a third-world country, earning 1 BTC right now could make me a millionaire now by today's standards!

I wholly agree with your statement. The primary thing to do as someone who is given the opportunity to earn BTCs is to HODL them. Who knows what could be the price of the BTC by 2035? But imagine, some people who invested back when BTC first started did not know about the potential of its price as of today. The sky is the limit when we are dealing with its price. I will probably save my BTCs now until I retire and maybe enjoy its benefits when the time comes!


Old people are relatively used in the traditional way of doing things. Whenever something is introduced to them which is more convenient, faster, and reliable, they tend to deny this and stick to what they have been doing for years. Maybe, it hurts their pride whenever they see that there is a better way of doing things.

Just to share you about my story regarding patience, I learned it the hard way as I wasted the opportunity of earning a significant amount of BTCs when I failed to HODL them.

Last 2018 when I joined this forum and as a college student, I was a young and naive boy who just wanted to take earn money in order to buy some superficial things. Every time I receive my BTCs which came from campaign signatures, I would withdraw those BTCs and convert it to fiat via our local exchange. I did that until the last quarter of 2020. I was scrolling and checking my blockchain history when I saw that the total number of BTCs I gained ever since 2018 was 0.5 BTCs (around $27,000 now). If I just saved those BTCs, I could have bought my father the car that he wanted for so long since I owe my success to him.

That's right, everyone. HODL your BTCs and be patient! You will never know as the sky is the limit when it comes to its price!

I highly advise that if you were to invest in btc, avoid purchasing them using money garnered from loans. Even if the bullish run provided an opportunity for more people to invest short/long-term, there is no absolute guarantee that you will experience profit.

There are too many risks associated in loans especially when you deal with a currency that is highly volatile in nature. What if you suddenly needed the cash and the price of dropped unexpectedly? Purchase bitcoins only when you are comfortable with your finances. Risking everything for something that is not guaranteed is a problem waiting to happen, like a hanging sword of Damocles.
