Congratulations.


Rather than the forum, I would say that it was you who moved to the correct perspective with the help of some forum members. Most of those you name have had a good influence on me or are people I respect for their vast knowledge.

But the forum has a great shitcoin section too, that's why I was telling you that it's not just this forum, something you had to do your part, because there are many people who spend all their time on the forum in the shitcoins sections, hunting bounties and stuff.

Keep up the good work.

Bump.

I wanted to comment one thing to icopress and the rest of the members of the campaign. From my mobile, I see the [banned mixer] signature like this:



Appears cut off. I wanted to check if others see it this way too, so that icopress can take it into account, especially if the campaign were to last more than a couple of weeks.

The Best Change and CM ones appear the same on mobile as on PC, and I don't think it's just a coincidence.

It sounds more realistic to me now.

And why did you transfer Bitcoin to him instead of transferring fiat? In my case almost nobody in my environment knows that I have Bitcoin and if I have to help someone, for example by making donations, I do it using fiat, not Bitcoin.

It doesn't make much sense to me to spend the good currency, the one that appreciates, and keep the bad one, the one that depreciates.

Since I don't believe all the stories I read in the forums like that at first, I've been wondering if this is another thread in search of merit. But since I have no way of verifying it, I will not believe one thing or the other.

Completely agree, the bad thing is that it is full of scams like this on the net, because they always end up finding someone naive enough to fall into the trap.

Someone who is able to get 8% per hour, would not be on the internet selling his system, he would be in the Bahamas or somewhere similar partying on his yacht.

At an interest rate of 8% per hour, and investing only $100, at the end of 5 days he would have $1M. If he waits 5 more days without touching the capital he would have $10 Billion.

When you argue this to the scammers they usually come out with that it only works with capital up to a certain limit and with a time limit and blah, blah, blah.

Anyone who knows a little about finance and scams knows it's a scam.

None of them. You should have published this thread in the shitcoin discussion section but I will report it to be moved for you.

My strategy is simple and consists of accumulating more and more bitcoin, regardless of whether we are in the bull or bear market or kind of sideways as we seem to be lately.

I do DCA and although I spend Bitcoin from time to time, I always try to have more Bitcoin at the end of the month than the previous month. Of course, I am more in favor of spending when we are in bull market and breaking ATH after ATH than if we are in bear market, which is when Bitcoin is cheap to buy.

What I think is that it does make sense but I am a bit skeptical that this will ever be implemented in most countries. You have to think that it can vary a lot from one country to another. There are some countries where economics and financial education are taught in high school but not in most of them. I am a bit conspiratorial about this and I tend to think that most governments prefer their subjects to be financially illiterate, so they will depend more on the state than on themselves to get ahead.

As for cryptocurrency education, especially Bitcoin education I think much the same. Why are governments going to implement in curricula subjects that teach students how to free themselves from the yoke of governments and central banks?

There will be some exceptions, of course, but I don't think it will be the general rule.

You've probably already decided to day trade and I'm not going to convince you otherwise, but have you thought it through? Day trading, both in the financial markets and in the crypto world, is highly promoted because exchanges are very interested in it since they make a lot of money in commissions. What they don't tell you is that 90% or more of day traders lose money in the long term.

You will be competing against high-frequency algorithms that are not driven by emotions, and bear in mind that in an emotional outburst you can screw up.

Of course, if you still want to do day trading, the other fellow forum members have given you good advice. In these things, if you have a predetermined idea, until you screw it up for yourself you don't usually change your mind.

I went to the casino, played roulette, won, and that brought smiles to my face.

In a more serious way, what you describe has nothing to do with the title of the thread. Bitcoin has not saved you because you are trading shitcoins, apart from Bitcoins. What has saved you, for the moment, is having been lucky with the trades you have made.

Maybe it turns out that you are especially talented for that but keep in mind that more than 90% of traders lose money in the long run.

I hope that if you lose all your money tomorrow trading shitcoins, apart from Bitcoin, you won't blame Bitcoin for this.

I just deny the premise, I deny that the $40K is a barrier.


You say it yourself, if it is oscillating in that range, there is no barrier. There is a barrier at $69K for example, because the ATH is always a mark that when the price approaches it is difficult to beat because many people take the opportunity to sell and take profits.

I believe that nobody is clear about what is going to happen with the price this year, especially after the disappointment we had last year. There are many things that can influence: how the war in Ukraine evolves, inflation and the response of the central banks, etc. It is these facts that we have to look at to get an idea of where the price may go, and not some isolated lines of what happens in the real world...

But I don't quite understand your picture. Well, what I do understand is that you predict that the price is going to go up, but you don't see what that $500 will supposedly turn into. It would be interesting if, as cryptoaddictchie asks, you clarify if you plan to do DCA or not. I do recommend you do DCA apart from the initial investment, and that is what I do. Just think if the price goes from $50K to $200 after all those years, you will only have $2K. If you add what you can weekly, even if it's $10, or monthly, little by little the ball will get bigger and you will end up accumulating a good capital in relation to your purchasing power and saving capacity.

I believe there will be two consequences. The first is that people who are now still reticent about cryptocurrencies will stop seeing them as something strange, because after all, their government will have created one. The second has more to do with what you say, because it is normal that most people prefer a currency backed by their government than by a company, but there is one currency out of all those called crypto that is essentially different and that is the Bitcoin. I think many people will understand that having Bitcoin is like having digital gold and that it is something that appreciates over time as opposed to CBDCs that will depreciate over time.

Maybe I'm biased but I think Bitcoin will be the winner.

I'm not so sure about that, Kazakhstan had 8% of the world's mining last January. If that 8% goes to almost 0, something should be noticed. I don't know why you say that China was not so noticeable. The drop in hashrate was noticed and quite a lot, and it was also noticed in the price as FUD occurred and at least some miners sold Bitcoins that would normally have been HODL in order to finance the move.

Hi icopress, I've just changed my signature.

Best, Poker Player.

Interesting. I guess the jobs you do online have never made you large amounts of money. I think the same as you. I have been making money on the internet for more than 10 years, mainly playing poker. At first I thought about making the leap to full time player but just at that time came the poker Black Friday and the money I had on Full Tilt was frozen without me being able to access it, although I got it back some years after that. That event taught me how unstable that world could be, so I decided to keep playing just as a side hustle.

But whether with Poker or signature campaigns I have never earned more than with my 9 to 5 job. If from online jobs I started to earn more, and especially if the amount was double or more, there would come a time when I would consider whether to quit the physical job and dedicate myself only to work online. This bearing in mind that I also have savings and investments that could cover me if things go wrong.

The only thing I would like to add to what has been said is that they are called "merits" for a reason. In theory you should give them to someone because you believe that what that person has written has merit.

But as pooya87 says everyone does their own thing. There are times when merits are given not so much because people believe that what the other has written has merit, but simply because they agree with what he/she says, without the post merited expressing any profound idea, nor has it taken much effort to write it.

The thing is that now you already have some smerits to send, so you can start practicing, while you keep on noticing how others give merits.

There is one thing I would highlight from this, regardless of whether he is a prince, and that is that someone who works in financial services in the City has such a positive view of Bitcoin. Let's remember that until not so long ago it was seen as junk. If people working in the financial sector are starting to see Bitcoin as we do it's a good sign.


I don't know what good you see in monarchies. It is true that those who have questioned monarchies have traditionally been leftist movements, but to me that someone has a position of power simply for being someone's son seems to me more typical of primitive societies than of advanced societies in which one earns one's position by merit and not by birth.

Another thing is that monarchies today have an ornamental role more than anything else, but they usually enjoy public goods and have public resources allocated to them. I don't see why these privileges have to be assigned to someone by birth.

Btw: why do you write "poeple"? I first I thought it was a misspelling but as you always write like that, I am pretty sure you do it on purpose. Is it because you pronounce it like that?

Best, Poker Player.

I was just thinking something similar.

I believe that an unstoppable race towards the massive use of Bitcoin has begun. In the previous cycle we had a boom of retail investors, in this we have started seeing the adoption by companies, and the beginning of the states considering it legal to tender. Surely there will be many states reluctant to consider Bitcoin as a legal tender because it is something they cannot control and because if they consider it so, they will lose money in taxes, but countries like El Salvador and the first to join the bandwagon is because they see benefits that exceed these points, such as saving a lot of money remittances fees and the advantage of being among the first to adopt Bitcoin as a legal tender for the attraction of capital that it can bring.

In my particular case, I don't donate with Bitcoin, I prefer to use fiat, because I am in accumulation phase and I prefer to spend the minimum bitcoin, especially when the market is bullish, not now. Although there are many people who donate with Bitcoin but I guess they have enough Bitcoin accumulated already, or they receive most of their income in Bitcoin, so it doesn't hurt them to spend it.


But you would receive donations only in Bitcoin? I wouldn't close the door and accept fiat as well, unless you want to do without reporting to the authorities or something, think there are many people who either don't have Bitcoin or have Bitcoin and fiat and prefer to spend fiat, like me.

In any case, in order to donate, I have to be very sure that the project is legit. If I have the slightest doubt, I don't donate. So I suggest that if you carry out the idea, develop it well and be as transparent as possible.

Hi, a question, since you seem to know so much about the subject.

Do you know if Bitvest.io has a gambling license? I remember reading TheQuin saying that 777coin does not have a license.

Curiosity more than anything, the crypto gambling world in some cases operates in a dark because there are many sites that are licensed, but typically from a tax haven and they know that they should not accept players from certain countries where to operate a license from the country is required, they even put it on their TOS, but turn a blind eye on it.


Typical of someone who has a compulsive addiction: engaging in a certain behavior (be it taking drugs, gambling or whatever), regretting it and compulsively doing the same thing again. It's sad, and I'm not a big fan of regulations, but I'm all for strict regulations on the gambling industry, because if you leave them to their own devices, they end up destroying lives in a very profitable way for them.
