Well may karapatan naman talagang hulihin ni PCSO yung mga illegal na gambling at kasuhan ang mga ito dahil government owned si PCSO at kontrolado ng gobyerno. Magandang hakbang to para maisip ng ibang gumagawa ng illegal gambling na ihinto na ang mga ito, sayang din kase ang potential na kita ng PCSO kung kokonte lang ang competition at legal pa, alam naman nating tumutulong ang PCSO pagdating sa welfare at hospitals para sa mga karagdagang pangangailangan. Nagtataka lang ako pano nakakalusot pa rin yung mga ganito sa gobyerno natin, dahil ba sa paggamit ng blockchain tech?

Actually my thought about this, Any exchange would love to see a monthly deposit from a single user so OP can basically use any existing exchange we have on the internet. But there would be some major issues especially with the security. OP should know how risky is it to store your bitcoins in an exchange, as far as I know, they are not liable with their users losses once they got attacked by hackers, or any breaching incidents that caused their platform to go bankcrupt. Best, if you could store it in your personal possession, don't think about the annual profit you can get from storing it to exchanges, think about how much bitcoin you can get in a year.

Yeah, setting a stop loss saved me in a lot of situation, especially when you spend most of your time just monitoring the market, then you will take a nap then suddenly the market moves against your position. Being greedy after a winning streak in trading really triggers your greedy side, especially when you earn almost 100%, tendency would be you'll trade again in like an hour after taking profit.

Sometimes the leverage that exchange is offering is very high, which most of traders can take advantage of especially day traders, but this offer could be a strategic move from the exchange especially when they highly anticipate a certain type of market in coming weeks. Do you know any exchange that changes its leverage in season?

But it's like a suicide mission, right? when they initiate war, this also means that they are gambling against their whole nation. This is too deep for the topic, and we might have different views on government but I can agree that the government will not care of its people in times of desperation.

If we come to think of it, there are terrorists group that have funds as huge as the government's fund to its military, from this angle we can determine that there is powerful people behind these terrorists group and it could be bigger than a government, could be multiple? I didn't know why there are government in the world who funds a terrorists group and fight them to look like a saviour.

It's not something they should be realized of, because it is really not in the first place. If the government's reason why they are doing that is because of its high potential medium for money laundering, then its a total BS. Everything has its own advantage and disadvantage, and it is one of bitcoin but it is not enough to really fight against it especially that the government is not running a single person.

I'm fine with the regulations they are trying to make around with cryptocurrency, but I think it is really fair for everyone who uses or not, for it to be regulated just so the government has a point touch of it. I hope they realize that this isn't something they should be prioritizing because there are more bigger than this matter.

In terms of tangible assets, my view on being rich is being able to afford everything and anything they want from their food, house, cars, jewels, etc. But I also believe that being rich is wealthy is on a different level. Being wealth for me means that you own a lot, you're not 'richer' you are a lot richer of the rich person, idk if you will get that but that's how crazy rich a wealthy person is. While we dream of being rich someday, there are also some rich people who dream of becoming wealthy.

Every one of us has different views on these terms, I like how others are addressing this generally, not just monetarily. OP didn't mention it.

I believe so. They are called government to govern its people and territory, so technically they are not only against to illegal activities but also to something that possesses a threat for their government this includes decentralization like cryptocurrencies. Government knows the darkest side of the story of their country and won't even give a bulge about it.

Good analogy, not every mixing is laundering. I agree it is used in money laundering but that doesn't mean it is illegal. Same as guns as well, you can kill someone with it or you can save someone using it.

You won't think about it when bitcoin price moves the other way. See there's no one to blame or something to regret with what happened because we cannot really predict the future. I think the lesson you need to learn from this is to take the risk, without risks you cannot gain from something. I know we all did regret on how big we missed investing on bitcoin back then, this is the same feeling you had when it crossed $34K, imagine there are people who sold their bitcoin for less than $100, $500, and $1000. Investing now might be a bad idea, I'm speculating that it won't reach $40K by the end of this year, and you badly need the money for your education. Learn to time your risk taking.

No goverments cannot even get a temporary control over cryptocurrencies, cryptocurrencies are fueled by fiat which is owned and regulated by the government, once the fiat is converted into cryptocurrency that's the time the government loses it and cannot control the circulation of that amount anymore.

Hmm that's not what satoshi included in bitcoin's whitepaper as the goal, tho that may be part of it but not directly stated. The goal of the bitcoin is to be a global cryptocurrency that cannot be owned technically speaking by any government, the only time it will get a control over it is when only a few people owns the entire supply. I hate to coin it "uncontrollable", it is making the whole crypto a disastrous thing for the world. Let's call it untouchable.

I agree, this happens to every nation especially when a country relies on another country's products or services. I think it is pretty normal, besides Bangladesh isn't a first-world country, so they might be just doing good with their economy and can easily maneuver things off. The world is facing global problems at the moment, it is not surprising that some countries may be affected directly or indirectly by these world events.

The Pandemic really hits differently, felt like the world isn't the world we lived in for the past 3 years, seems a lot has changed through that course.

Either of these two can give you profit, but doing both can give you massive profits. It all depends on how are you willing to invest time with bitcoin or crypto in general, if you have ample of time you may wanna spend in trading because trading is a good way in market to gain profit in daily or regular intervals you want. On the other hand, if you don't wanna be on your monitor in most of your time, then you can invest and hold bitcoin until such time that market turns green or enter a bull market. But trading involves more risks thank merely holding your bag, it's like walking on the streets trying to buy the cheapest coins vs holding your bag while watching tv program at home.

Wala naman sigurong malalim na dahilan si OP sa thread na to, nacurious lang siguro talaga sya since anonymous nga tayong lahat dito. Maliit yung chance na may local celebrity dito sa forum pero hindi naman siguro malabong magkaron since public naman itong forum. Besides, masasyang ang oras nila kung pagtutuunan nila ng pansin tong forum, wala silang mapapala dito. Pero feeling ko may mga celebrity na nacurious at one point at nakapagopen na ng thread dito sa forum natin. Don't be negative about it, it's good to be curious to something.

I can't see a reason kung pano mo nasasabi to, parang ginagate keep mo yung forum 

I agree. Insurance kung afford mo naman bayaran monthly atleast eto sure value yung makukuha mo over time unlike sa bitcoin na uncertain kasi depende to sa market kung good or bad. Pero beware tayo sa mga insurance company, make sure na basahin ng buo yung contract and agreement, minsan kasi akala natin insured tayo sa sakit natin or aksidente pero after policy nila is hindi pala.

Yeah, para mamaximize yung profit sa bitcoin mas maganda itake yung profit regularly, kasi anytime pwede mo naman ipasok ulit especially pag gumanda yung market. Maganda yung may insurance and investment ka, wag dumepende sa isang source lang para may guarantee ka.

I wasn't able to fully ride the 2017 bull run, but I surely made some huge profits during this time. I must agree, yung peak ng axie last 2021 and the crypto market looked crazy diba, hindi inakala ng lahat na that year mangyayare yung dating haka-haka lang nung mga nakaraang taon, and given the short period of time is ambilis lumaki ng market ng crypto, talagang game-changer yung dating sa financial space ng mundo. Nung 2021 naman yung best bull run ko, together with my friends, kumita kame ng malaking halaga na nagamit ko para makapagtapos ng college and syempre personal expenses 

That's true, in order to have unity everyone should have the same point of view, beliefs, culture, political stance, etc. This is why the world could not achieve the unity we all deserve for. What we can do the least is to have peace, even if we do have a lot of differences, if we are able to accept those differences then we can all have peace for the world. No wars and conficts!

No one really wants it, especially us the citizens because we are all going to suffer if this happens. But at the same time, government is preserving its peace in its country, every country, any threats to peace in order to any country will surely result to war. Also, government have treaties and agreements in times of war, so even if you're country has nothing to do with the enemy country of your treaty agreed country, you should be an ally and support them during war, which will technically include you in war.

I guess almost everybody have the same story as mine lol A friend of mine introduced bitcoin when we are just high school, I'm on twenties now not so old not so young, that time I don't really have a money to invest or to try it on my own so I basically ignored it, I remember calling him like a "weirdo" coz who believes on internet money that time ha! But it turned out to be the way, when I saw him earning and keep telling us to join I gave it a shot, earned a lot of money, did the same thing to my friends and they called me "smart ass" for believing, then started chatting me on social media when I post something on my stories/reels " how do you do it bro", "Do you have a job?" some kind of messages and I'd just ignore them. The coin is circle my men.  

If we are talking security, wala talagang financial security na maibibigay si Bitcoin sa atin, realistically we are just assuming that bitcoin will increase its value in coming years which is a high probability. Pero pipiliin ko pa rin both para maging diverse ang portfolio at magkaroon ng cover din both traditionally and sa cryptocurrencies. Sa isang banda, if we want our future to be secure mas lamang sakin yung traditional business, proven and tested na to sa mga mayayaman sa atin, noon pa man na wala pang bitcoin eh mas nakakatulong to para sa future ng isang tao. Ang kagandahan naman sa pagpili neto parehas ay mas possible ang win-win situation mo pag pumatok ang business mo and dumating yung time ng bull run.

Parehas may pros and cons, but these two is a good weapon for the future.

If you go beyond your budget, and spent money to unnecessary stuff, then there's nothing wrong with the amount you have, you will realize that it's you who has to adjust with these kind of spending. And budgeting requires a common sense, we know goods cost higher these days and you need to adjust with these as well. You don't budget $20 on electricity bill if you are at home with 24 hours ac and computer on.

actually this is the normal thing to do, glad you found out.

Putting it in cold is the best to save it. Not on your cards, e-wallet, or somewhere that can be access online to avoid temptation of spending.

What do you mean lose for every month? Did you mean like can he able to like just invest his $100 in long term and hodl? or you really think he's going to lose his $100 by just investing to bitcoin during dump? coz if that's the case then it is very impossible to lose a $100 if you invested $100.

Having a cold storage doesn't mean it protects your assets, it is you who should protect the cold storage. In times of war we cannot predict what would happen, we knew how things are pacing during this time, but always assume that it will be a massive destruction. I don't like thinking these things but this is true, so if you possess a physical storage for your assets then you must avoid any physical destruction to secure your assets.

Perhaps, keeping a portable laptop with you that you can always go with you is the best thing to have.
