Maybe blind people will be having hard time while setting up their wallet and it is nearly impossible for now but in terms of spending we can still make it possible with QR code scanners or crypto debit cards but until now not much place to spend our cryptos so I believe there will be some technology to assists the blind people to live normal life as everyone.
In the nearest future developers should be able to transform the braile machine used by the blind for tracing and reading of documents into an app which might possibly enable them to set-up a wallet, and do other crypto related stuffs without any hindrance, its very possible with high tech and artificial Intelligence all these put together can be channeled into an idea of creating the machines for visually impaired although the technology will be highly sophisticated and very expensive.
4162  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When we think that crypto is being used by criminals to move tons of money on: September 23, 2020, 05:09:25 PM
Fiat is used in much larger fraudulent schemes, and it is stolen much more often, why don't you write about it?

People are already aware and veteran about many Fiat fraudulent schemes and mostly higher people are behind it. Since the beginning fraudulent are rampant in fiat money unlike in crypto which is something new and not easy to know that's why people in crypto space still not aware about the operation of many scammers online.
More of those activities are done behind cover whereas they always tarnished the image of cryptos by attaching it use to money laundering whereas the main culprits are fiat launderers who perpetuate those fraudulent activities undercover.
The article had listed out massive criminal activities of the banks its sad that this is not getting enough media attention its only when cryptocurrencies is involved then a widespread negative campaign of calumny will triggered to call the attention of people the bad and criminal use of cyptos.
4163  Economy / Economics / Re: Food prices doubled this year on: September 23, 2020, 03:03:36 PM
This is actually what we are experiencing here in my country at this strange time. Inflation rate on food products rose higher recently to about 5-8%. Its really sad to know that a lot of people couldn't afford to buy foods now because of being jobless and they were running out of money from their pocket. That is why you can see a lot of starving people anywhere and poverty become more worst.
I thought it was in country only that is experiencing hike in food stuffs not knowing that it cut across many countries, joblessness and unemployment means shortfall in pushing power in that country, how come the hike in the price of food stuffs? when only few people are buying, Covid-19 had really devastated many productive economy, in my country the agricultural sector was hard hit during the lock down and also flooding of farm products due to heavy downpour this has also caused a lot of havoc on the economy.
4164  Economy / Economics / Re: The debt based Economy on: September 23, 2020, 01:37:46 PM
So if we change the system that money will be not Born from the debt?
What will be other way then?
And how it will be controlled how much money is given away to people to use it.


This Question is specially for those who is against this debt based economy?
Every country has its own debt history and it will never fade away because it will continue to grow over time. If there’s no debt then that country must able to support their needs on their own and its really hard to fund your projects. The barter can be a good alternative just like the old days but i think it will not work on this era, cash debt is everything now.
Majority of countries globally are laden with debt even some of the world powers are not left out they also run their economies on debt some countries obtain loans to fill their budget deficits however how those loans are being managed is questionable in some of those countries due to high level of corruption.
The paramount objective of some of those debt laden countries is the well being of their citizens if there is the need to run the economy on dept provided that whatever hash conditions their people passing through just like the present pandemic if obtaining a loan will cushion some of the effects or problems thus plunging their economy into debt its all well and good.

Few years back, I could remember Cryptocurrency wasn't really known by most people and the idea was joked with, even I myself didn't have a thought on it, but the growth of crypto is now alarming that almost all my friends are into one or two of it. Looking into the future I suggest Cryptocurrency will suspend other past used currencies and take over, what do you think?
Not so sure about that. Even though crypto has greatly improved there still a fact that they can still be abolish or somehow become a second preference to financial system. I dont know but thats how it works. Im still bullish about it and believe crypto will continue its wings to fly. Its been few years and its become a trending situation for crypto. More interesting things will unfold as we continue to explore crypto market.
It seems to me that cryptocurrencies have a very good perspective. The cryptocurrency market is very volatile and is in constant development and improvement. New interesting projects constantly appear which attract new participants. I am confident that cryptocurrencies are the future of the economy.
I am not surprise that the wise and those who has wisdom had been hodling their coins most of them had foreseen the future prospect of cryptocurrencies the bright side of it.
The growth of cryptos had been tremendous in the recent years, many adoptions, exchanges, traders etc springing up on daily basis is a good indication of the rapid growth.
The huge daily volume traded and large Market capitalization are also a pointer to the fact cryptos future outlook is very bright.

Bitcointalk is where people make money by participating in more bonus programs. People always bring signatures and try to spam them on topics to make money.
However, I still see the quality and knowledgeable topics. Also, we have other topics such as economics, politics, health, gambling, altcoin announcements ... These topics are also very interesting and interesting.

Yes , you probably earn here when you participate in promoting a project but I think the first and primary aim of Bitcointalk forum is to give and spread knowledge about crypto and some other related things. It is a group that sharing thoughts and information that others can also read and understand.
The quality of knowledge in Development & Technical Discussion and Bitcoin Technical Support is high class I cherished those two thread when it comes to learning stuffs that are too technical and complex relating to cryptos and  If couldn't  get first hand information from other sites I usually check those threads, a lot of technical issues had always been resolved or finding solutions to some issues related to wallets etc are well taken of.
Trading section is another thread has good stuffs for newbies to start their trading journey.
4167  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BEWARE OF FAKE GIVEAWAYS IN DISGUISE AS UNISWAP on: September 22, 2020, 09:33:01 PM
The scammers in the crypto community will not cease to take cheap advantage of newbies using successfully conducted projects to scam them.
A team of scammers are at it again using the name of UNISWAP to conduct a fake giveaway to steal from the unsuspecting newbies. The giveaway is announced through a medium post claimed to be UNISWAP's with other scam team members commenting to give testimonies about what they've earned from the giveaway to attract people to be their victims. A check on Uniswap Twitter and telegram channel doesn't contain anything about the giveaway. Don't fall for it. It's a scam.

These UNISWAP scamming issue is also similar to the rave of the moment of De-Fis project some this so-called projects had been so hyped that many newbies fell for it, its quite unfortunate that some scrupulous individuals are now using cryptos to fraud people in the of giveaway such as this UNISWAP these are like bait used to attract the gullible newbies with bogus bonuses.
I think there is need to create more awareness about these fraudulent activities going out there, else newbies funds will continually stolen.
4168  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2020/2021 on: September 22, 2020, 08:25:33 PM
Jose Mourinho is on the list of potential coaches the club will fire this season. based on the site thesackrace.com, Mourinho is in the third position chosen by Bettor. What was wrong with the special one, he still couldn't bring his team to play well at the start of this season because from last two matches, 1 of them are defeat.



Mourinho’s style of play is outdated, his defensive style only really works if you have outstanding attacking players who can score from very few chances. Mourinho has always played defensively & counter attacked but if you don’t have world class attackers you won’t win like this. Kane is ok but he’s not elite.

Coaches like Pep & Klopp play much more expansive & attacking football which gives you more chances to win games. A great attacking team will beat a great defensive team more often than not.

Jose was a great manager but his way of playing isn’t the best any more, other managers are better.
In addition to your comment Jose Mourinho is synonymous with "parking the bus" style of play which is always defensively minded team invariably plays boring games, he has Son, kane, Dele Alli and Lucas Moura in his squad, these are good and quality attackers with goal scoring abilities I don't know why mourinho choose that style of play.
I won't be surprise if he get sacked or fired soon if continues with that style of play his team will definitely lose matches which will result to his unceremonious exit.
4169  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Importance of social media channels on: September 22, 2020, 07:27:20 AM
If we take part in a bounty campaign on a project, I think we should join and follow social media so we can follow the project's progress and also the bounty period ends. In addition, social media for a project is a communication bridge between the developer team and the community, so I think it is necessary to follow the latest information
Bounty managers who knows their jobs well encourages hunters to mandatory join the social media particularly telegram groups to get updated news about the projects they are promoting, unfortunately a lot of hunters ignored those social media thus are not kept abreast of latest information about the coin.
Some lazy ones will not bother to read through some answered questions on a telegram group by the bounty manager they kept on asking questions same questions repeatedly this is very annoying however some bounty manger still take time to provide links to their questions I will attribute this to laziness on the part of hunters.
4170  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: This will help day traders and newbie traders. on: September 22, 2020, 06:27:29 AM
Mastering entry and exit with good money management of trades caught my attention in the OP write-up this two rules ensured proper planning of my trades before pulling the trigger to buy or sell while using 4 hour timeframe as the minimum trading frame.
I used resistance and support zones as the point of exits thus giving me the opportunity to calculate my stop loss and take profit while taking into cognizance the risk to reward ratio of that particular trade I am about to enter whether it worth trading to a earn decent profits or not else I leave it for another one.
4171  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What area of bitcoin participation is easiest to work with? on: September 22, 2020, 05:30:58 AM
bounty hunters are the choice of many people to get a lot of Bitcoin, by not requiring a lot of capital with just a laptop and internet network, everyone can do work to get Bitcoin, and when they get Bitcoin from the results of bounty hunters can become traders to be able to get more advantage.
Its a good news that BTC paying social media campaigns i.e twitter campiagns is on service section this is an ample opportunities members even newbies that have huge real twitter followers will earn reasonable amount of BTC if they join 4 or 3 of those campaigns by twitting or re-twitting just within a period of time I hope those campaigns last long.
Trading is also another source of income however the risk involved in it is high and requires vast knowledge to make profits consistently.
However mining is expensive to set-up i.e capital intensive its a no go area for anyone without financial capability to acquire mining equipment and the cost of electricity needed is also huge.
4172  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: TOP FIVE SECRETS OF MAKING IT BIG IN BETTING WORLD on: September 22, 2020, 04:22:52 AM
#4. A lot of gamblers also got it wrong here by accumulating many odds thus putting such a bet in a high risk accumulating 10 games with the aim of

having 20 odds and thinking of winning big is quite ridiculous and unrealistic and resulted to losses in most cases.

#5 It is very important to have vast knowledge in that particular sport personally I am knowledgeable in soccer bets that is my area of specialization

especially in EPL teams, I studied teams that are very strong and weaker ones, goal scoring teams thus giving me the opportunity to place my bet.

Above all its also advisable to bet with the amount of money you can afford to lose as rightly mentioned the OP gambling is for the strong minded.
4173  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum Rebounds as Bitcoin Holds Steady on: September 21, 2020, 09:28:58 PM

 I believe they are both equally down right now and things are not looking like they are going to change any time soon neither. I mean looking at the price right now it is 10.4k for bitcoin and 340 for ethereum which says they are both very down and should be recovering or it would really go a lot more worse. I mean it is of course good that they are both down at the same time, if one was down while crypto market was up that would be bad but since everything moves down together that at least means market is not doing well at the moment.

 Obviously we would like to fix that as soon as we can, don't know how long it will take, don't know when the recovery will happen but as long as it happens I will be fine with price of 12k+ for bitcoin and 450+ for ethereum (and all the other crypto similarly up).
Both coin were held now at a support zone at $10200+ for bitcoin and $330 for ethereum after the dropped I hope the price recovers from those zones, presently there is rejection unfolding from those zones whether the price will dip down again or pump again remains unknown.
I hope the price reached $11000 first for bitcoin thereafter the next resistance at is $12K that should be the next target while ETH next target should be $388+ after breaking that resistance first before $450.
4174  Economy / Speculation / Re: sell now or you WILL regret it on: September 21, 2020, 08:30:35 PM
Panic sell can't bear good result at all. We should for some good news. As we invest on bitcoin and ethereum or like same coins, we shouldn't sell at lower price because it will rise surely.

op didnt say anything about panicking but he only talks about this moment that this can be a good time to sell because price are likely to return on thier base  . panic sell with a root word panic means to hurry , when we are in a hurry that simply means that we arent organized .

thats a bad example right ? and shouldnt be adopted by any coiners on here but the rest that you have said are fine okay to me .
I agreed with the OP on that, this is simply Sell high and buy low once the price reached certain peak or high its definitely a time to take profit while waiting for another dip to buy low again, hodlers who are not conversant with the way the price of bitcoin move might be jittery and sell in a hurry i.e panic sell, the price indeed fell or dropped down to $9800+ another dip for buyers for those who sold at $11400+ must have taken some profits while the price pumped again to $11300+ another dumped had already occurred again.
4175  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can I go into this crypto???? on: September 21, 2020, 07:19:34 PM
As matter crypto currency is good venture that one can venture into, but not all cryptocurrency worth venturing into, for one to be on a safer side, so as regards to INK (PICKCOIN) i heard about it, it was introduce by a Nigerian brother, but on my research Nigerian Minister of finance warn people not venture into it, so with that i stop, because it was tagged scammed by Nigerian Government, though dont know more the Coin, that all i know about,      

Correct. This is the official news link here also for anyone who wants proof this coin is a scam: https://bitcoinke.io/2020/06/sec-nigeria-flags-pinkoin/

But you know what guys,,, nobody needed to look at this to know Pinkoin was a scam along with inknation,,, guys please use your common sense and get thinking. None of these overnight success profit stories are true. Ponzi model, come on!
Your research is eye-catching and eye-opener for the OP to stay away from the so-called pickoin, there are numerous coins in cryptoshere however a lot of those coins are shitcoins doesn't worth investing on, it is always advisable to research on any coin so as to have a first hand information on them. Many newbies are carried away with  bogus bonuses promised for investing on those coin whereas its just a trick to scam the gullible ones who will never bother to make en-quire and research before investing.
4176  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Don't trade if you're inexperience rather stake your coins. on: September 21, 2020, 05:01:59 PM
Everything need a proccess, even I read some books the author always says that you can't get a consistent profit for two years in trading.

That has pointed out that trading is a difficult way to earn money. You need more time, money and your effort to make your trading system run properly for atleast you can minimize a risk.

All people can be a trader, getting money and even getting rich of it by doing hard work. But all people will broke if they just put buy and sell by his imagination or even other people suggestion.
A newbie in trading needs to take time a learn, there are trading stimulators, demos etc that will put a trader to test their strategy while making consistent profits before going Live a lot of inexperience traders got rekt without the required knowledge of trading. its take quite some time before making reasonable profits even with losses however a good strategy with a good risk to reward ratio will result to profit in a long run.
Trading is not just pulling trigger of buying or selling without any prior knowledge of both fundamental and technical analysis while thinking of getting easy money.
4177  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: The bounty scam will gradually go away on: September 21, 2020, 03:59:45 PM
Just recently we are beginning to have some Twitter campaign giving hunters reward in btc in the service section. This is one sure way to take off this muster that seem like a cancer called bounty scam.

I'm believing that gradually, will may start seeing the inclusion of other social media signatures like Facebook, LinkedIn, medium, article, videos, blogs and many more, coming up in  both bounty section and service. I'm sure that hunters will prefer social media signature than the scam going on in the board.

I guess one reason that we are seeing that Twitter campaign is because of the audit which takes care of non real followers of an account. So if your Twitter account isn't made of real followers, you stand no chance of being selected. The audit is surely to check out accounts with fake followers and that is also good to stop scamming.
I think slowly the trend will change and the campaigns will have to pay in real money to hunters for the job done, just like there is trillion dollar freelancing market where people do gigs and get paid in real money similarly bounty hunting can be like that. Unfortunately due to a lot of scams, low payouts and intentional delays and denials from many campaigns and projects the bounty market is under pressure and struggling to survive.
The solution is that hunters should immediately stop promoting suspicious, low quality and fake projects and at the same time the projects should look to pay in real money for the work done.
Bounty hunters and even newbies will have a sign of relief in the sense that those of them that has real twitter followers will earn some decent amount of bitcoin kudos to twitter for bringing in audit, its a good step in the right direction, participating a three btc paying twitter campaign really worth the stress of doing the bounty work for a newbie, I hope to see more of those campaigns in soon in the service section, while the altcoin section will look less attractive to the bounty hunters because those fake projects and scams.
4178  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: THE MOST PAINFUL DAY IN MY BETTING CAREER on: September 21, 2020, 01:46:21 PM
Well, the pain should have started when you bet 5k in a parlay of 12 matches.....!!!!!
How would you do that? You should have a huge fund for gambling according to that.
Another plan would be to cash out. You were waiting just one match and the odd was 1,27 so you would not get very little from your expected return if you would have cashed out initially.
The problem with the cashing out when you're winning some bets but left with those whom you believe take huge grace and encouragement. Though Cash out after the very few games in the bet sometimes look odd because the rest games could be successful after cash out. Some of my games last season where half cash out because of this uncertainty that happened to this dude, so, better to take half bread than to miss the loaf.
Cashing out would have earn him a decent profit but the OP mindset is winning the whole $260K with the remaining match which looks like a good bet for wining however luck was not the OP side the game casted and bet lost.
As you rightly said half a loaf is better than none the OP must have learnt a big lesson in gambling and other gamblers too would also learn to cash out at decent profit rather than losing the whole lot.
4179  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which type of trading you think is good? on: September 19, 2020, 01:12:58 PM
I'm not going with existing theory. I have categorized trading as follows-
1. Based on technical analysis
2. Based on event news
While I'm not much expert in TA, I can achieve it if I spend some hours a day for a month I belive.
On the other hand, trading based on event news is pretty easy. You don't need to have much knowledge other than the capacity of ebaluating a project.
What do you think? Which method is good?

Although both are important for a successful trading, I do believe it is still much better to trade on technical analysis. Technical analysis is extremely important to be able to read the market unlike having to wait for some big news to affect the market.
Without technical analysis, there's no possible way for you to be called a trader. I mean, without technical analysis, how do you even intend to trade?
I'd advice you shouldn't depend on event news to trade. The best thing to do is to trade based on technical analysis.
Its okay to use technical analysis to read the market however fundamentals will always move the price, without the latter price volatility will be very slow while the former indicates price direction thus agreeing to the fact that both are very important to make profits consistently,
Fundamental news in most cases rubbished technical analysis that is why a trader must have both knowledge and keep an on events related to that particular cryptocurrency, forex or stock traded this will guaranteed and consistent profits.
Although some traders trade and relies only on fundamental analysis which I believed is very risky.
4180  Economy / Speculation / Re: COVID-19 Vaccine Will Cause Bitcoin Crash on: September 19, 2020, 11:47:54 AM
I have confidence that the COVID-19 vaccine will not make Bitcoin crash, because there is no reason Bitcoin holders sell all their Bitcoin,
when the vaccine was found. It is true that there is a possibility that Bitcoin holders will return to investing in stocks, if the vaccine is proven.
But all Bitcoin will not be transferred to stocks, so it will not make Bitcoin crash. Bitcoin has only experienced a deep decline, and it won't
take long, either. Because there must be some whales who take advantage of the decline in Bitcoin to buy Bitcoin. So this can make the Bitcoin
price go up again.
Your comment is on point I don't subscribe to the notion that COVID-19 vaccine will result to crash in the price of bitcoin, although investors sentiments will change i.e diversion of investment from cryptos to other sectors however price of bitcoin had always defies any form of analysis that is based on sentiments even in this pandemic period many people had lost their jobs and a lot of businesses had closed down despite that bitcoin still waxes stronger.
COVID-19 vaccine will open up business and jobs will be created things will go back to normal hence I foresee more bitcoin investors invariably its price climbing I don't think there is any cause for any alarm invest wisely.
