It is just like telling people that you can buy stuff online/anywhere using debit and credit card, although you can persuade them by telling them that you whatever or how much you're hodling is gonna be always there. There ain't no maintaining fees that could cause closure of your account because there is no such thing as an account in Bitcoin, unless you're using an online wallet which is highly discourage especially for the means of "hodling" . There ain't no strict requirements. Just you, your money and your device (whether it'd be mobile or desktop). This would, however, just increase the chance of persuading people to invest in Bitcoin, and not just merely being aware of it.

It will be easy to tell to your families including your dog, but I wish it was that easy to sell service using Bitcoin. The only problem lies at whether your area ,or in bigger scale, your country accept Bitcoin as an alternative currency. People use it as an investment mostly, and it will be always like that when you're trying to convince someone to put a money in cryptos.

Actually for the school, we have few schools that wants their students to study Bitcoin. One of it will be France.
It's quite a nice read : https://cointelegraph.com/news/french-high-school-students-will-learn-about-bitcoin-and-crypto

It is the internet. It's gonna be either plenty of trolls or those who encourage people. There will be FUDs. I got dozens of receipts already in my wallet when I tend to convert my BTC to fiat which is equivalent as to selling it.
No matter how hard we try to stop the manipulation, there will be people that'll just go straight up panic out of crypto.

If there's gonna be a tax in connection with Bitcoin, it should be just within those financial institutions that allows people to sell Bitcoin. We got SCI here in our country that is all about the industry in linked with Bitcoin.
I believe that it shouldn't be taxed though because in the end people will still sell them to fiat money, and I guess they should take into consideration to tax fiat and any centralized institutions. Leave Bitcoin as it is.

Sometimes it might depend on how urgent your current assignment is at work, but regardless of the conditions on what you're doing you shouldn't be caught by your boss doing other things unless he or she is like a close of you although that is kinda biased for your co-workers, it would still be best to avoid it. You're earning anyway in your job so you could just take it as a part time at home.

They wouldn't be able to hold it, OP. You can't blame though. Surely we're gonna get some more adoption anyway in BTC so this debate will probably stop once a lot of people start utilizing it.
I can pay my electric bills using BTC, and I got some local app for that so that's quite convenient actually. Slowly we're getting there.

I think you just hit the bad luck when it comes to finding IEOs. IEOs could potentially lessen scams anyway because of the requirements they need to submit. Unless  that devs could fool a large and reputated exchange like Binance, then I think you should be okay for now at least.

This is why I tell people to not boast too much about their earnings in crypto especially outside the forum. You never know who are the people behind those profile that stalks your profile right now.
This is also why I stopped staying in Facebook at full-time like 8 hours a day.

That kinda sucks, OP.
You should probably move this to scam accusation thread.
This is uncommon for some exchanges. This is why I advise many people to not hodl their coins in an unknown exchange or not that widely known exchange.
You could try to get in touch with them because they seemingly froze your account there.

Here in my country, I don't remember anyone hodling and crypto not even Bitcoin.
The adoption could have  been growing exponentially if there were few celebs hodling it, because probably they're gonna boast their hodlings in whatever show they're included making it like promotion or advertisement to Bitcoin which is quite favorable for everybody here in crypto-space.

Situation isn't  new. It was like this especially for Bitcoin, maybe for us hodlers back in 2017. If there's new, it would be mostly just the launch of new platforms for letting people in cryptos.
I remembered the launch of Bakkt before even though that was 2019, but I am pretty sure the wave of effect of its launch still gets felt until now, especially due to the bull runs we're getting right now although I know it shouldn't have any effect right now.

Well some people are claiming that Libra will have some sort of impact to Bitcoin due to its crypto-being in nature, maybe those who are staying 24/7 in Facebook would probably think of dropping a single quarter of investment but for me I won't invest in it ever. I already had issue with privacy in Facebook before.

I half-heartedly agree with this statement. We don't need a strict regulation though. Good thing we got IEOs that requires team to pass the requirements that the exchange needs from them plus making them pay listing fee, which is just a fractional part of probability that the project isn't a scam project.
Reviews won't help reduce scams, if someone else is thinking about that already because it might just end up a paid review as well as paid KYC test.

It's gonna Bitcoin, because why not?
If there's gonna be an alternative "Bitcoin" for me, it would still be Ethereum in my own end. It's plan ABABABA.
Other coins in the market would be just like a 1 day of a day trade for me, but hey I ain't yet going back to that. Still gonna stick to these two long-term hodl. I'll take advices from other people though for long-term hodling.

If you know that you earned already from a certain project and you're still planning to earn, just stay on that project. Sometimes it is the fault of investors on that's why these scams are still happening.
1st - These investors/traders keep their funds inside of an exchange.
2nd - Those investors keep feeding the beasts, that's why it keeps coming back to crypto-space.
3rd - Those investors keep posting publicly in social media about their crypto trades like advertising this exchange and that. This also leads to crypto robbery at home. I'd read long time ago about a family held at gunpoint and got their BTC robbed.

I appreciate OP's initiative and dedication for making such coin that would be somehow different, if not better, from Bitcoin. OP, so far I don't have any features in mind because it might end up like those 95% alts that would turn into shitcoins. Probably get a unique name for it though. Do you have a team though? I think you could brainstorm it together, while hearing your thoughts from us about the idea you're having lately.

If I heard the Libra announcement like a year before I learned about Bitcoin (assuming that it was announced during 2016), then I would never think of investing in cryptos at all even if they mentioned that.
It depends on some people that heard it. Maybe they'll be curious of it.
Consider also the effect of what the media will tell them in case the non-crypto people got curious of what cryptos are and also what the common reference like the Wikipedia will tell them.

It just encourages a lot of investors to buy many tokens. It's like a trick to their eyes that it will surely be an expensive coin in the future, but it turns out it is the opposite. In fact, these project with overwhelmingly high supplies but shit value are quite common actually.

I was about to say that it is gonna be a great addition to the use of Blockchain. In fact I can see the use of it in basic ways in our daily lives, but I had the thought of seeing the sign in gasoline stations about the not using mobile pones while refueling.
The way of refueling might be different in other country, because in my country we tend to stay in our ride as a crew aids the refueling.
Other countries tend to just pay first inside of the convenience store before it gets refueled so I think it is gonna be applicable and somehow less dangerous for them.

I think I'll just stay with my usual choice. BTC and ETH for now.
I probably want to look into BNB but it seems like a new investment for me and I don't know how would it go for the next year or two and no I won't day trade anytime soon .
