It is very necessary that we tell ourselves the truth,

COVID IS HERE TO STAY.

 There's no need to mince words, in no time at all, really soon, covid will be treated like all other viral diseases, no need to lie to ourselves that it is going away completely anytime soon, because it is not.

Everything must adjust to create a fit for this new virus, by everything i mean our health system and our lifestyles. To continue to exist as a specie, we must adjust.

A lifelong politician who couldn’t get a job as a Walmart greeter, wants to raise your taxes. This tax proposal is insane. I wouldn’t blame people for leaving America if this comes to pass. It certainly would be worth it for many Bitcoiners and possibly even large corporations like Microstrategy & Tesla. You would have to be stupid to think this is good for the future of American competitiveness in global finance.

Quote
President Joe Biden will propose nearly doubling the capital gains tax rate for wealthy Americans to 39.6%

This is perhaps the major reason why we have seen bitcoin price fall from 60k range to the 49 - 50 range again, because big cooperations who initially had a huge store of bitcoin now have to quickly dump it for fear of the new tax rule that President Biden is proposing.

I only but wonder how the supporter's of J. biden will be feeling now?
3964  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: XRP Community Tells SEC: You Don't Represent Our Interest on: April 21, 2021, 03:54:59 PM
Because the SEC is another extension of the government and many already do not trust the government already. Many private investors are not really concerned about whatever the SEC has against XRP. So far transactions with XRP is fast and transaction fee fairly affordable, who wouldn't want that?

Good thing is, news like this help and affect the price positively for XRP holders.

"No one is Perfect". That's something you have heard many times in life. We've got flaws, imperfections. I once read a novel tittled perfectly imperfectly by one of my favorite authors.yeah, in some way,we are perfectly imperfectly. Even perfection is imperfect.people wanted you to be perfect,sexy body, straight legs, perfect grades, you name them. But it's that even possible what to do if you have flaws then! Well,all these thought can lead to depression trust me. But I've got a solution for you.self acceptance.its a lot easier to accept someone else than it is to accept your self , that's in my own opinion. I've learnt and I'm still learning to accept my self,flaws and I feel much better today. So, we'll be looking at what self acceptance really is,why it's important to accept your self and how to go about it. One more thing, it's very important to accept your self and how to go about it.one more thing, it's very important to accept your self along with all your flaws but what about making some changes? you may be overweight or extremely shy, but you can change it if you want to. It's called self improvement. However, before that you have to accept everything.

HOW CAN YOU ACCEPT YOUR SELF.
(1)  BE HONEST WITH YOUR SELF:  Acknowledge the fact that you have flaws and have made mistakes in Life.This will help you move on and make changes
(2) ACCEPT YOUR REALITY: INSTEAD of beating up your self for past mistakes and Iwing a lie,try accepting your reality,it help you see a future in a bright light
(3)PRACTICE OF FORGIVENESS: mistakes are what us human.Learn how to forgive your self, your imperfections make you unique.

You are very correct, i think another word for this is self mastery, before one can make progress and grow into who he or she really is, they must have spent quality time with themselves, trying to figure out and accept who they really are and become a better version in reality.

You are not wrong to hold your own idealogy as regards the people's Republic of China. In my opinion, at the moment the market is very volatile, any news as regard crypto from any country or influencial individual really affects the market.
3967  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: My first success story trading crypto on: April 17, 2021, 07:15:47 PM
Well I originally had a plan where I was going to save up 4,000.00 USD as "money that I would use to invest in crypto that is also money I can afford to lose". That way I can invest in a big way and it's not the end of the world for me if I fail and lose it all. I spent months researching what crypto was, how it works, asking a gazillion questions on this forum, etc.

But when I finally had 2,000.00 USD saved up, I decided to not wait till I have 4,000.00 to start investing and I've been scalp trading for the last few days with dogecoin.

Just a few minutes ago, I took the 2,000.00 USD that I spent investing and withdrew it and put it back into my bank account. The money I now have in my portfolio on binance.us is now the profit that I'm trading with. ....and my balance is 2,782.87. Yes, that's right. I made 2,782.87 in just a few days by scalp trading on dogecoin! My original 2,000.00 dollars is back in my bank account (well, I have to wait 2 business days before it's OFFICIALLY back in my bank account because of the proccessing time I have to wait)....and now I'm just using my profits to trade with.

This is awesome! Just wanted to post this here and say thank you to everybody who answered my gazillion rookie trader questions. I put the stuff I learned on my own and stuff I learned in this forum to good use! WOOT

Very nice, congratulations on this success. Cheers to many to come. You must however exercise caution and quickly get over this excitement so you don't make a hurried trade decision in the days to come. Kudos, keep up the momentum.

A common idealogy behind bitcoin is that many now see it as a get rich scheme and a means to invest your money long term, although it has been beneficial to everyone in their own terms, I believe the original ideology behind the creation of bitcoin was for the simple purpose of giving freedom to people in different locations to get money across to themselves without interference and tampering from the government.
3970  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ultimately long time holders are enjoying the real BEAUTY! on: April 13, 2021, 07:30:56 AM
Long time hodlers really are those who enjoy the real beauty of cryptocurrency indeed. Long term hodling has turned many who never envisaged themselves as millionaires into millionaires. A very good example is the case of the Winklevoss twins who were crazy enough to buy $10m worth of btc when it was $8 and were able to hodl through the good and bad times till it got better. Today they are billionaires and are reaping the fruits of long term hodling.
3971  Economy / Economics / Re: The Winklevoss twins worth $3bn Each for buying Bitcoin @ $8 with confidence on: April 12, 2021, 10:29:53 PM
Only a few are really crazy enough to dare. Regardless of the fact that they had to be rich to have $10m to gamble with as at 2012 (that is buy an asset they were not sure of), they are true visionaries and the true definition of investors and they have to be applauded for that. Many during that period who were exposed to information and had same opportunity as the twins, maybe even in a better financial position did not consider it an option to invest so much as $10m into.

The risk takers in society, are really the ones that make it big. Sometimes playing safe and thinking through investment opportunities is wise, but when one plays it too safe and overthinks some investment opportunities, he or she may never make it big.
3972  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: BNB Burn is coming on: April 12, 2021, 09:45:06 PM


Very hilarious, despite the huge increment that BNB has recorded in the past weeks, CZ still refers to this as a dip. This is a sign of what is in store for hodlers of BNB in the days to come. I tip BNB to topple ETH in the next few months. With the accelerated burning that they announced for their  $100million target, the increment in the weeks to come, will be very sharp.

This is not a financial advice.
3973  Other / Beginners & Help / Burning cryptocurrency. on: April 11, 2021, 10:49:18 PM
Although the word seems to pass a different meaning, burning cryptocurrency is very beneficial. Burning in cryptocurrency is a method used by crypto projects to influence the price of a token or coin in the market positively.

METHODOLOGY:
 The method or mechanism behind burning is to remove a quantity of a token or coin from market circulation. This reduction in circulation/availability of a token or coin causes the token or coin to be high on demand and thus because of its demand, the value increases. BNB, Stellar, USDT have been burned with this method.
Another method of burning used by XRP is the reduction in the number of allowed transaction on a network making the possibility of a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack less possible.  A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is an attack made to a server or website by multiple computers from a cyber criminal group that makes a server or website appear crowded, very crowded that the real people supposed to use the service, have little or no access.

WHERE IS THE TOKEN OR COIN REMOVED TO?
The token or coin is reduced from circulation by the purchase of a large amount of it ( buy back method) or the project itself rendering some of the token or coin it has not issued yet obsolete by  transferring the token or coin into a frozen private address called a burn address.

CAN THE TOKEN OR COINS BE RECOVERED FROM THE BURN ADDRESS?
No, they are called burn address because these accounts have no private keys hence the token or coin will remain there. These burn address are sometimes made public so that anyone can view them in their non existent state.
Some projects burn token or coins one time while some others conduct burns occasionally.

3974  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: BNB price on: April 11, 2021, 06:34:19 PM
BNB will have coin burn in he next few days, that's why a higher value will be expected sooner after the burn, I'll guess $525 is possible.

As at the time of this reply, the price of BNB is $504, and this is just the beginning. Because of the accelerated burning announced by CZ today that is set to begin in some days, BNB has a high probability of getting to $1000. The inflation that we have seen in the past few days was just a result of the little burning that has taken place. Out of the 100million BNB tokens that binance has targetted to burn, they have not even gone half way. I say again strongly, buy BNB now. The increment to come in a few days will be explosive.
3975  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2020/2021 on: April 11, 2021, 05:50:25 PM
Mou will be under pressure from both team and club supporters who have witnessed this humiliating 3-1 defeat to Man Utd at their home stadium.

Man Utd today showed a lot of team spirit and team work, they dominated possession and showed that they really wanted the win and it was evident in that Fred's second goal for the club. Pogba was particularly instrumental in that midfield area and deserves a thumbs up for his performance. Cavani as well has been fire this season and is really doing wonders and scoring goals with that his head.

I really hope Man Utd can sustain this form till the end of the season, they might just win the league.
3976  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: XRP is up 118% in seven days as the market responds positively to SEC case news on: April 11, 2021, 12:35:34 PM

They are going to enhanced every good news so they can further pump Ripple's price. the news although positive did not guaranty that Ripple is winning the case, it is still up in the air and this is going to be a long battle that will take months and expect a lot of dip and pumps for every news that comes along the way.


In my opinion, XRP is good to buy if you have the money to gamble.This is a big week for XRP because this new ATH is the highest it has been in 3 years. The increment hodlers of XRP are enjoying now is as a result of the few key cases they have won against the SEC. We need no magician or soothsayer to tell us the future of XRP that with just a few losses (i mean their court cases) or even just one major loss, the price of XRP could fall considerable and other holders will loose profit and capital.
3977  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Cars That Can Be Purchased with Bitcoin on: April 11, 2021, 12:06:46 PM
A very informative read. Thank you for the enlightenment, i guess the media especially "twitter" is the real hype. Elon musk's announcement that Tesla will start accepting payment in cryptocurrency was blown all over the media, making it seem like they were the first to many and to me to do such. This is probably because the company's CEO (that is Elon Musk) is one who is known to be very influential and a futurist with a very large fan base. Another reason to consider as well is that in 2015, twitter (the chief hype media responsible for many markets shift like we see) did not have as much users as it has now. If it did, maybe a tweet from their official Twitter handle would have went viral.
Another very interesting reason to consider why this information was not widespread is that in 2015, many were not conversant with the term cryptocurrency, there was little acceptance and adoption, hence many were uninterested unlike now when the percentage of people with crypto currency knowledge has greatly increased.

The doormen are as guilty of the discrimination and abuse as the black man involved.  I wonder if they would have reacted differently if the case was a case of a black man attacking a white lady. Whatever this thing is with color and race discrimination, it all must stop. We all mist collectively be involved in raising awareness especially to the young and upcoming about the unimportance of skin colour.
3979  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: When would I get my bitcoins from Elon Musk? on: April 11, 2021, 03:37:57 AM
But why will Elon Musk just want to double everyone's bitcoin, is Elon Musk charity??  Or did you read somewhere that Tesla is a charity organisation?? Too many times, people keeping falling for get rich schemes like this, I am sorry to say, just as i am sure you have realised by now that you have just been swindled off your bitcoins. 0.3btc is something, but it is not what you cannot live without. I advice that you be wiser and not make hasty decisions whenever you hear about or see schemes that look too good to be true.
