3981  Economy / Economics / Re: China Economy Forecasted to Surpass US Economy by 2028 on: December 28, 2020, 09:22:24 AM
It is happening and will actually be going to happen. Most of the business manufacturers are in China because of cheap labor and materials. And with this pandemic, they're the only one country that didn't much suffer from their entire economy. Thus, their stocks got a rise during the rise of the pandemic and lockdowns. And it was said because of their resiliency as they've fought it.

China stocks surge after state media urges investors to load up
China's stock market rally gets extra push from foreign investors

There were also times that their state media told their people to buy stocks and so it surged.

It was a quick turn when just before the corona virus spread worldwide, the US was leading them. Now, it has turned the favor to theirs.

It is strange that he now comes up with it after 2 years. Maybe because he realizes that bitcoin has now suddenly reached great heights with the value?
I've seen it with other posts, not related to gambling but they've been letting their coins sleep onto wallets or websites like this for a long time. They've come back due to the price hike of bitcoin and that's why they're asking for help after years of being gone, losing the passwords/private keys. And on this case, it's the casino that have locked up his bonus. The asking for withdrawal had been answered already by the operators and you can't do that much unless the rules have been followed.

Even if you beg for them, they'll just say the same. Now, if this post is encouraging some people to go and sit with you there just for the bonus, I don't think that there would be people who would like to join you just for that bonus that you want to get. Sorry with that OP.

The trump and biden betting was one of its kind and we do not get such gambling bets normally. The betting results are mostly crystal clear and gamblers are paid instantly after the result. But in case of this US election, winners payments was delayed until it was verified hat biden has won.  However, the only caution which we should take is to bet in a trusted platform so we do not face any withdrawal issues.
The bookies don't want to have trouble just in case they're about to send the winners their money. It's an issue that's understandable for both sides, in the side of casino that don't want to release any amount and makes it pending due to its situation.

While on the bettors who have won and bet for Biden, it's also understandable that they're already a winner and deserves the win that they should receive. It's just only a matter of a few more days/weeks until there's an official turnover in the white house.

Many came into crypto space to earn money but some are too deep into making it big with crypto investment so they always feel like not getting enough when the coin they invested money in pumps high, they want to earn millions from a single project, I've seen few people ending up with nothing going down this part
This is the effect of greediness. Been there and thought that I'll earn more than what the market is showing and that made me done wrong decisions. As much as you get profit, don't ask for more but if you do, then do it with the process that's safer than you could. Instant and quick profits would lead you to another wrong decisions which most of the newbies do it wrongly.

The fact is you don't have to make thousands of dollars from a single project, they can always come from different projects, also it's wrong to depend on a single project
Right on. If you're into projects like Defis or IEOs or still with ICOs, you have to move on from project to project if you're that type of person. The market for these projects are dynamic, they're changing overtime and that can affect your investing decisions whether to keep holding them or not. But with the situation you see today, do you think it's worth a shot to follow each and variety of them?

The four year cycle looks amazing with those prices.

2020 - $23,400
2019 - $7,318
2018 - $4,124

2017 - $13,673
2016 - $899
2015 - $453
2014 - $330

2013 - $651
2012 - $13
2011 - $4
2010 - $0.25

What's next for 2021?

If bitcoin will still follow the pattern of the four year cycle then it's for sure that we'll see more than what we see today. Bitcoin just got into $25k and that's a quick-turn run for bitcoin. With less than 24 hours, it's moved to $1k. After it's testing itself from $24k. We are at 69.3% dominance and if this increases, price of bitcoin will also reflect to it as positive as it is.
3986  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: [ASK] Anyone know about this crypto escrow chesterpact.com on: December 25, 2020, 06:25:41 PM
I'm confused where newbies are getting all these non popular platform and exchanges from, if you are using Google search engine to find platforms and exchanges you need to stop now, there is no way you won't be direct to a scam platform, use crypto forum like Bitcointalk to seek advice and knowledge about crypto, this is the only way to avoid getting caught in scammers big games
We've got a hint. Read the post above how it happens. It's all coming from the Telegram groups and Social media networks/pages/groups. A newbie wouldn't search that much if he/she was asked to follow a group that makes them comfortable with information that they give. And also having no idea how the crypto market works, makes them lack of knowledge how to deal with these scams. They trust those people that suggests these groups and websites quickly if they're good in talking just like in real life, when someone recommends you, you're likely to believe them.

And google is another platform that makes them fall into this kind of scam too. Google keeps allowing these scammers to publish ads.

Please be aware there are several individuals working Telegram and other social media forums for crypto coins making outrageous offers to buy coins.  It really is too good to be true.  They are scammers.  Eventually, they will direct you to one of several "escrow" sites that look legit, but are nothing but a store front to steal your coins. They keep setting up new ones more often than I change socks.  Chesterpact was the first I found.

Some of theses are transactwise.co.uk, chesterpact.com and exchangecrib.com (two weeks old today).  All are run by same group of scammers - so beware. The last one is brand new only registered a few weeks ago and the first two have been around for months and already have scam alerts posted on them.  Please spread this word to other coins that you are aware of that have followings on Telegram. Again - happy holidays to you all and have a safe and happy new year.  Here is one of several scam alerts......

Happy holidays, this is a great source of information that we can spread to make everyone aware how these things happen outside the forum.



3987  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🏈 NITROGEN SPORTS | NFL Survivor Pools with over 30 BTC* in GTD prizes! 🏈 on: December 25, 2020, 08:06:52 AM
That's true I've been playing to Nitrogens before but after some time people keeps complaining and some have an unresolved cases that leads them to getting a negative trust. I really think they should rebuild their trust while doing their promotion at the same time.
Their past players won't keep complaining if they're there to help them and do whatever what was asked in an immediate action. And this time, if somebody still has a complain against them, they are free to be DMed by the complainant and they've left their channels open for actions and support. But  I don't see that many do see that they're rebuilding or it's just that the number of their customers are being lowered and not that much complain anymore from forum members.

I can see this site has been around for a long time, but I am amazed that there are many complaints and it would be good if these issues were resolved so that they can further build their reputation.
Reading from the feed back, they've helped but they are requiring too much things for the complainant which shouldn't be because they should make it easier and make every customer they have to be comfortable whether there are problems or none.

A kind of comics that referring into Bitcoin? Well, for me this is a kind of boring to me.
Even I read the PDF version, honestly I don't get the exact catch of it. By the way, could you tell us here in the
forum what could possibly reason for us to get the interest of the members here in this forum.
You don't actually need to be impressed with someone's work. If you don't then you don't have to ask him that he/she should convinced you with his work. Appreciate it that he had converted it into pdf file because it takes a lot of time and effort to convert a physical file into a soft copy.

There are people who are interested reading such and there are those that are not interested.

@dimzayan, Merry Christmas too and happy holidays.
3989  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Web browser extension wallets for BTC on: December 25, 2020, 06:01:07 AM
Like I said before, people should watch out when installing wallet extensions because there are many fake wallets.
For example simple search of term 'bitcoin wallet' on chrome web store showed me fake Samourai Wallet extension that does not exist officially, and I know scammers created many fake electrum extension in past.
On Mozilla add-ons I also noticed Coinbase extension and I don't think that is official or legit.

Double and triple check before installing any extension.
Very well said. Hackers are also taking over through creation of fake wallet extensions. I also haven't seen Coinbase announcing officially of having their extension wallet.

- Greenaddress - does not have web extension, it is pure web wallet, so it is not for the list
Before, it's easier when there's Green Address Wallet but blockstream has removed the support into it and made a newer version but no longer supporting an extension wallet. I have no idea if they have plans of making the newer Green version having it again on browser's extension.

3990  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Have correct recovery mnemonic but cannot authorize via email on: December 24, 2020, 09:50:23 AM
Oh man, sorry that's such a huge amount in today's time. Heard of the same problem about the recovery phrases and this is where they struggle. Can't you remember anymore the email that you've used for registering before?

IIRC, this email authorization just came lately when they've purchased the domain .com and you really have to access it through email as they'll give the login verification link.

And after this update they've made, a lot of users who have the old wallets when they were still .info who wants to access got into problem like this.

3991  Economy / Speculation / Re: Christmas 🌲 Bear 🐻 Already Started Munching! on: December 24, 2020, 08:11:27 AM
Bear? not yet. The color indication on crypto market tabs looks encouraging to say the least that we're already in the bear market. But if you look to bitcoin's price now, it's @ $23,156 and that's no bear.  Smiley

The indication that the market is bleeding doesn't mean that we're already in the bear market. We're too far from seeing the bear and if it's there, we might see a nosedive that could lead bitcoin's price back to the lowest for this year which was around $4,900.

But needless to say, don't worry if you think that the everyone are actually taking their profits. It's Christmas and whales would have to cash out. This is a very strong sign that the market is becoming stronger and could show us another ATH by 2021.

Forbes goes crystal balling before the new year approaches.
Quote
Blockchain will expand beyond financial services
They are correct about blockchain about its expansion in certain industries like the financial services. This includes the fintech which is getting broader and taking the attention that it can contribute to what they offer. And in fact, there's a surge to blockchain related jobs based from linked in report.

These are the most in-demand job skills in 2020, according to LinkedIn
LinkedIn: Blockchain most in-demand hard skill in 2020
LinkedIn: Blockchain is the #1 Most in Demand Skill Right Now

Very likely that still in 2021 it would be part of the most in demand skill because there will be a lot of enterprises that will use blockchain into their businesses.

#3 there will be arguments about its speed. Although there's lightning network that has improved its speed and made the transactions cheaper. It isn't yet widely used. Some alts have faster speeds and this time, many would only use it as an investment not in transfers.

Bitcoin is the only currency that increase in value, All bitcoin holder has advantages now.  Cheesy
Other currencies are also increasing in value depending to the situation of their mother country. In cryptocurrencies, there are altcoins that are also increasing in value but just like bitcoin, they're volatile.
3995  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: New rules from FinCEN on: December 23, 2020, 09:15:12 AM
~snip~
This means we will get a new shadow market.
There are already enough projects that allow you to anonymously tokenize any coins and trade them anonymously.
That is why I left the centralized exchanges, because I understand that in the end, one day I will not be able to withdraw my funds from them.
It's better not to make a little profit than to lose everything
Majority who doesn't like this new rules from FinCEN are going to choose the decentralized exchanges even more. There's more security on it and I think we're going to see the news about it being flooded by many users.

Although some exchanges are still okay having their users use the normal accounts without KYC. This is just the start and will spread from one exchange to another and from closed-sourced wallets to self-hosted wallets.
3996  Economy / Exchanges / Re: The future of exchanges in the cryptospace on: December 23, 2020, 08:10:43 AM
FinCEN’s decision might seem bad for many reasons, but it is also good for many reasons.
One good reason that I can see on this is that hacked funds will easily be caught and traced by them and can't penetrate to any exchanges under US' jurisdiction. But Binance has done already a solution to this to block addresses that are involved to any fund hackings and other exchanges as well.

Other than that, I don't see other good reason for us, small individuals who are part of this. We may not be affected on this for now, but those crypto folks under their jurisdiction wouldn't agree on this. They have no choice and this could come also near to us in the future and that's really possible if it's coming from this US bureau.

How good are you at managing risks? You can't just advice people to go and take loan for crypto when there are thousands of bad projects that will probably exit scam on investors are every where, bad advice mate, it's better to teach people how to manage risks than telling them to go for loan, we have newbies among us
Whether he's good in managing risks, we can't be good as him and other investors who can handle the much pressure in investments such as a volatile asset as bitcoin. It's really a bad advise to tell people to take loans for investing in bitcoin or any crypto that they'd desire to have.

And he said it earlier this year and whoever did it, got into a perfect time. But that's not an exception because taking loans for this volatile investment have made a lot of investors, new and not, got into a bad decision and they've suffer after they've bought at the peak of bitcoin. The advise of buying bitcoin and other traditional assets is fine, successful investors have skills, investing is a skill that you can benefit from.

Are you sure that you're very interested investing to projects these days? you seemed to changed the title of this thread and then asked a new question because the first project you've asked didn't get a good feed back and suggestion from other members.

Before you invest to projects, have you invested enough to bitcoin?
4000  Economy / Speculation / Re: We're almost half way to 100x (250k) on: December 22, 2020, 08:07:04 AM
Not to be bitter on having these kind of numbers but if we do consider on how big the marketcap would be on reaching 250k then i dont know on what would be the situation in terms of comparison
of Bitcoin and with the top fiat currencies when it comes to value and also to others.
We can presume out those high multipliers when the price was still soo small but since we are already in 20k+ side then reaching 600% or 100x is
almost out of reach.Being bullish isnt a bad thing but if i do mind off that way then im not really that patient on waiting up for too long.
It can be reach but not might be on my lifetime lol.
You need to be patient if you want to witness those high prices that are out of reach for the moment. We have never been this so bullish and this is greater than the last bull run that we get. Not ignoring the possible crash or plummets that would likely to be heavier than March's but it would also open the idea that it could go up as greater than we have.

More fiat printed, this would turn people to start thinking of a valuable asset that they can turn in. One idea would be bitcoin since it's getting the idea through mainstream and traditional financial institutions.
