441  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Effects of war on bitcoin on: May 11, 2023, 04:44:06 AM
Different countries issues is the reason why bitcoin is suffering price loss, when countries are not at peace with others, the whole nations suffered economic crisis, I remember when the price of bitcoin start going down was same season Russian x Ukraine start economy wars. Bitcoin seem to remained statics because of sentiments by this countries attitude towards the resourceful digital products that would have swim financial hardship.
I believe that it will not significantly impact the overall crypto market since we are decentralized and not owned by a single country. Look at what happened in the past with China's ban on bitcoin. Although the market panicked, bitcoin eventually reached a new all-time high. Bitcoin and fiat are different; during times of war, fiat will suffer, but bitcoin will prosper. That's my take.
indeed, if you look at it, the war with bitcoin is not significant, but the connection may be that when the war occurred and resulted in a decline in the global economy, investors experienced a decline, due to economic difficulties. but during the ukraine war until now, bitcoin touched the lowest price of up to $ 16k and is currently increasing almost 2x, from that we can actually take advantage of it in the past to make profits in a short time even though it is still in a bearish season, taking advantage of the moment to be the key to success in investing in bitcoin
442  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: with the high transaction fees btc makes me stronger to hold btc. on: May 11, 2023, 04:32:46 AM
1: having expensive btc transaction fees makes me stronger to hold on to btc because I don't want to waste my money on expensive transaction fees.

2: my goal of investing in btc is for a long term investment so with expensive transaction fees
makes me stronger holding btc, because my goal is to invest in btc for the long term.

i want to hear your opinion,,,
and are you freaking out about the high btc transaction fees...?

but in my opinion if transacting btc it would be better to use a cheap transaction method.
If the only thing that is stopping you from spending your coins are the high fees then you will not be able to hold your coins for long as I doubt the congestion on the network will last forever.

Now I will not deny that out of convenience I am purposely avoiding making any bitcoin transaction at the moment, but since I am convinced about the potential of bitcoin, not only as an asset which can go up in value but as a technology which will be widely used on the future, then it is way easier for myself to hold my coins even if there are some things which I would like to buy at the moment.
it's unfortunate to do bitcoin transactions especially during the bearish season, holding it will be more profitable for the future. for me I prefer to group finances, if I want to buy necessities, then I prefer to use fiat money which I have divided to make ends meet, while for investment, I will only convert to fiat currency during the bullish season , but I also set aside some of it to invest again when the market is bearish, I have done that as long as I know bitcoin from 2017, and I think it will be more effective
443  Economy / Economics / Re: Does a side job/business improve your finanical stability ? on: May 10, 2023, 02:01:47 AM
I think side jobs are very necessary, I feel it myself. I currently work as a private employee, and the salary I get is certainly not enough to meet all household needs, therefore I need a side job, especially when I have free time after I work at my main job. On the other hand, by having a side job, we are not worried if one day unexpected things happen, such as a reduction in employees, at least we can still have the side job that we have been doing so far. and for employees who already have a large salary, I think they also have to have a side job, of course they will have higher necessities of life that must be met every day. because basically people will find it more difficult to lower their lifestyle than to increase it
444  Economy / Economics / Re: Deposits-in the bank or in gold? on: May 10, 2023, 01:49:17 AM
I think saving money in gold is better to fight rising inflation than saving in a bank. So far, bank interest rates for deposits are not feasible to offset the inflation rate that is happening. but we also have to be able to see the characteristics of investing in gold, which of course cannot be done in a short time, the long term is an option to provide a decent return on gold investment. let alone investing in gold in physical form, then we have a double advantage as jewelry
445  Economy / Economics / Re: Are you Spending Money the Wrong Way in Pursuit of Happiness? on: May 10, 2023, 01:41:51 AM
the more people have a lot of money, then the needs will also increase, and that's what usually happens in the environment around us, especially for those who want to be recognized for their social status by being predicated as rich people. this will not happen if our wealth increases, but our lifestyle will remain the same, simple as before, so that we can reduce the number of our necessities of life. with good management, our wealth will increase faster, and of course it is safe with minimal life dependents.
446  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to maintain profitability in crypto trading on: May 09, 2023, 06:48:35 AM

3) Increase your capital: if you want to maintain profits in your crypto trading, you need to work hard to increase your capital so that it will help you to buy huge amount of coins that will help you to maintain your regular profits in the market.

Just like in business adding more capital is a way to increase profit and market market share.
However, when it comes to trading, I know we wanted more but must have to think that it adds risk as well. I'd never find it a good option in trading unless it was really necessary if our capital is very small. We should not be greedy in trading and must know contentment otherwise, this would lead us to addiction and we know what will happen when greediness is on our side - out of control and losses.
most of what happens is that they want small capital but get big profits, this triggers an unhealthy portfolio, so they are likely to go bankrupt. it's different from when the bigger the capital, even though it takes a small percentage of profit, but it has a large nominal besides that we can trade more relaxed and enjoy it so that our common sense will be maintained. things like this are difficult to implement, because there are still many assumptions that by trading we can make a lot of money in a short time, until finally greed appears
447  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: A nob in trading needs help on: May 09, 2023, 06:40:30 AM
If they don't want to learn and only rely on signals from other people, they will not be able to make profits but experience losses because the signals from other people don't always work well for them.

But by learning more about trading, he can improve his ability to analyze the market and know what to do if the market is in a certain condition. He can also become an investor besides just trading by trying to accumulate bitcoins that are taken from money from the profits of trading. And that can help him to gain additional profits in the future.
yes that's right, beginners who are new to trading or crypto should follow that advice. But let's see, many newbies just want instant results without the need to learn more about the science of trading. only rely on signals from others.
It will never develop if you only rely on others, it will only wait where they will experience a lot of losses when the advice from others is wrong.
448  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading Signals vs Own Analysis on: May 09, 2023, 06:31:03 AM
I will recommend always going for the trading at your own analysis and this is just because just for self-confidence and experience because when we follow signals we take trades blindly and this is not how you can get experience. always remember experience is the most precious thing in any field and it costs a lot. If you even have to bear a particular amount of loss still you should prefer self-analysis. It gives you the experience under different circumstances and when you get pro you can achieve more efficient results as compared to the signal-following Person.
Self confidence is a risky subject though, because if you should not have it, then having it means it's a risk. So, do not follow others blindly and make stupid trades just because others told you, that part is true. However, do not trade with your own analysis if you do not know how to do that neither.

Some people do their own analysis without any prior education on the subject and they end up with a lot of money lost, that's a bad deal and should not be done, and I would highly suggest others not to do that. First learn how to trade and then you could make your own analysis and you could make a profit, that will be a lot better for you in the long run. That way, not only you will have self-confidence, but you will also have one that is deservedly there.
the discovery of trading styles by own analysis requires a long process, and is always done by experiment. maybe when you do the experiment you will experience loss, but that is the knowledge you are looking for in order to gain confidence in a structured way, not just relying on self-confidence but full of calculations so that you stay on a safe trading path according to the portfolio that has been planned. most people actually experience over-confidence because they have been able to make a profit in one or two trades, and the rest they are very confident, which is precisely this kind of trait that will bring disaster in the future

450  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The bear market is your friend on: March 28, 2023, 03:42:53 AM
yes it is true that bear market is helpful for those who wish to make investment in some solid coins but we don't have any idea that the down token will recover back to its higher price or will die during this bear period. So bear and bull both are true friend but the problem is your luck whether it help you in making money or become a reason of yours loss. Sometimes you buy tokens which are in dip and wishes for its increasing value but unfortunately it become died. So the major thing is that always select a token which have the ability to maximize your money and don't let your money to decease in value.
therefore to choose the main altcoin would be better for the current bearish season. even though after we buy the price drops again, we remain calm, because later the price will definitely return, or even if necessary when the price drops again we buy again, of course in the area we drew before. therefore we actually have to be able to take advantage of opportunities in various seasons, so as to get the maximum profit
451  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it worth staking stablecoins? on: March 28, 2023, 03:31:52 AM
Actually staking is the same as letting go of your money and trusting other people to manage it, and you get a small portion of that (interest). In general, the loan interest is determined by the lender, while the staking concept of the platform determines the interest on our money.
If we have some money, why are we staking, which we should be able to use to benefit from Bitcoin trading.
It's also not wrong when someone is staking, remembering to avoid financial risks when trading. For me, staking unstable coins is more profitable than staking stable coins.

That can be said about centralized staking. But with decentralized staking, that's another story. You're trusting your funds to the protocol, instead of a third-party. Things can go wrong if the platform is hacked or the stablecoin loses its parity to the US Dollar in an instant. Those are the risks involved with decentralized staking. But I still think it's a better alternative than just saving money in a bank.

With the collapse of major banks across the US, no one is safe these days. It's all a matter of diversifying your investment to reduce the risks of loss as much as possible. Who knows if stablecoins improve to a point where they will become "immune" from real world events? Just my opinion Smiley
staking on unstable coins is indeed more profitable, especially if our goal is for the long term, so that our coins increase and if there is an increase in price when the allotted time is over, then we will get double profits. it's different if we do staking on a stable coin, then the profit is that we only get a few coins at a flat price, but this method is indeed less risky than staking on unstable coins, so both have their own consequences, we just have to choose which one, besides the unstable coin, what do we choose for staking
452  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Starting now. on: March 27, 2023, 03:35:13 AM
I had a different thread on how to start on Bitcoin and had so many useful and helpful knowledge given to me at that thread. I just wanna say thanks to all those who replied to my post. And also, yes, I will be starting to do trading on cryptocurrencies. With that being said, I also want to take this opportunity to ask, what would be the best cryptowallet to use at this time? 
Staying safe is the most important thing in this crypto currency nowadays. Hardware wallets are the most essential and important to stay secure. Whenever you use hardware wallet you will have no chance of hacking this wallet. Sometimes it is heard that many people's wallets have been hacked. And they find it too risky to survive here later. That's why it's most important for all of us who work here and earn money to use a hardware wallet.
However, despite of acquiring those hardware wallets, we still not be confident enough that we are totally safe. We have to consider the vulnerability to the hacking issue that usually happens to many holders as they are targetting wallet address that contains a huge amount of Bitcoin. As suggested by most, we never keep our funds in a single wallet but rather spread them to different addresses. And most of all, must keep them private and skip those links/emails that we never know where they come from.
Also people need to begin to make use of their common sense, as we know the robberies related to cryptocurrencies have increased dramatically during the last years, as now criminals know that they are valuable assets that can be stolen and which are difficult to get back, so people need to stop posting online about how much coins they have and revealing their identity on the process at the same time, as you do not know what kind of person would be watching and you could become their target.
right, besides being careful about our personal wallet, of course keeping our assets secret so that news doesn't spread that we have large assets is also needed, so that hackers don't find out easily and think of stealing. as an example of the incident in my country which is currently rife where many officials whose wives and children flaunt their wealth, which in the end the government suspects is the result of money laundering. they were found out because of their own doing
453  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: 1$ per day crypto investment plan any good ? on: March 27, 2023, 03:25:55 AM
That's what I mean guys. $1 will not be enough to make an investment because each exchange may impose a minimum limit on each deposit which may be above $1.
And that's why he can collect it on his own and then until he reaches the minimum amount for deposit and exchange it on bitcoin. For if it will take around 10 days to complete the $10 less fee, he has to plan it well and make sure that he's doing it rightfully so that the savings that he's got won't just be taken into fees. There have been altcoins that seem to be cheap but in terms of their network fees, they're eating a lot of money from all of their users and investors. That's why if someone is still doing this strategy of DCAing for $1 daily, you save it first and then deposit it all at once like when it's big enough for the minimum deposit.
collecting each day personally and eventually building up the minimum limit to buy it into is a great way to invest. if this is done regularly then in one year we can see how much money we have invested, especially during a bearish season like today, of course we will get more bitcoins, and that means we can make a profit faster. this is better done than saving fiat in the bank because our money will actually shrink due to inflation, let alone collect it little by little
454  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trade up capital: $200 on: March 27, 2023, 03:09:59 AM
I don't really think it's a good idea taking your wife's money to trade, I think you are trying to cause family problem, the best thing you will do is just to return the money to your wife and look for your own money and start trading with it, or you should look for another source where you will get money to pay your wife back.
Indeed, it is exactly very risky, too risky. Moreover, the money should be used for daily necessity fulfillment or other urgent or emergency condition, this is not a wise way to take it although there is probability to give back again the money after getting profits. But, who will guarantee if they can really earn much profits from trading, right?
Although we know that the condition may be permitted by the wife, but as a husband, this is not good and wise decision, too risky. If he can get the profits, it will  be good.But if he cannot manage the money and lose much, this will be a big problem to him.
what I didn't think of was telling my wife and wanting to use her jewelry as capital. if the wife really understands after being explained, so she can accept risks in the future, maybe it won't be a problem in the future, but if the wife only knows that tomorrow she will get profit and with a pleasant image, then this will become the seed of problems in the family, so for me it doesn't matter. commensurate with the family risk at stake
455  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What your opinion? on: March 27, 2023, 02:16:49 AM
I really was having this question in mind to ask if it will advisable for somebody who want to start up trying doing online investment and chooses trade as perfect for him or her. What will be your advice for such person as a beginner into online Invertement. I want to hear your opinions if it right or wrong despite it risk,so what your opinion or advise .
understanding risk is the main thing that novice investors must know, on the other hand knowledge of crypto theory must be understood first. This anticipates that investors do not panic when high fluctuations occur. many people see market movements and in the end they experience panic due to lack of knowledge, and end up selling in panic and losing money
456  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Which kind of situation will force you to sell? on: March 25, 2023, 02:04:30 AM
Which kind of situation will force you to sell?

Is family or health challenge enough reason to?

If I am in a situation where just selling my bitcoin could be the only solution, then I will feel tempted to sell too, but first I will see if I could get a fiat loan and use the bitcoin as collateral.


Family is important, such as in terms of health, so I say yes.
Well said, we live for the family and for that we need to spare anything we have. In all our hard times our family used to be with us. When something had happened and they were not in a situation to handle it, then it is our sole responsibility to help them someway. In such situation if I don't have the fund and the only available thing is my bitcoin holding I'll sell and find a solution for it.
family are the people we love, it seems we can't even live without them, so I mean putting our feelings above the material things we have. if selling bitcoins is the only way, then without hesitation I will sell it, in order to save the lives of my family, than if the worst thing happens and we end up regretting it it's useless. and afterwards we can still work hard to return the assets we sell
457  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Thanks to bitcoin on: March 25, 2023, 01:55:59 AM
I have invested and profited from bitcoin and likewise many people on this forum. Also, as a citizen of Nigeria and I know how hard to make ends meet, leaving mainly on your salary is very hard with the hard economy.
I can only imagine the situation there in Nigeria, people have hard time maintaining their life with their daily jobs. So bitcoin obviously is a blessing for people in Nigeria. I have seen so many Nigerian posting about their progress with bitcoin and cryptocurrency and many are successfully living their life thanks to bitcoin. So keep doing what you are doing, at least bitcoin will help you to support financially in the long run.
let alone Nigerians, I personally feel helped by knowing bitcoin, since 2017 I have known him, so many things that I want have been achieved, and I think if it was from my salary working in an office, it would be impossible to fulfill it. therefore it is a blessing to know him, especially for warriors living with limited capital can increase their results many times in the cryptocurrency world, and that is not impossible
458  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you feel bad while paying with BTC? on: March 25, 2023, 01:47:50 AM
...
What are your thoughts about this? Personally, I usually try to buy with stablecoins if I have some, it just feels more natural for me. I don't want to touch my BTC while the market is still bad.

I also try to go with stablecoins, since my current plan is to hold in the long term. However, if I do not have enough Stable coins to pay for what I need and I am forced to sell satoshis I would only feel bad if it is a frivolous purchase, like candies, videogames, or some gadget I actually can live without.

On the other hand, if I need to sell Bitcoin in other to pay for food, education or (most importantly) health for me or my family, I would do it in a heartbeat and I would not feel much remorse about it, we are supposed to be aware of our priorities.

That is what I think. 
I think it depends on the individual, where what is our priority. while thinking like the OP, of course the main goal is to invest in the long term, so you will regret it if you use it for payments, because it has the potential to increase the results. while there are also those who don't regret anything that happened afterwards when it comes to making payments, things like that are also not wrong, who knows after the price drops and can afford to buy at a lower price
459  Economy / Economics / Re: Money is for the important things on: March 24, 2023, 02:14:47 AM
without money we cannot do many things, with money we can bring all things or happiness,

Money cannot buy happiness, peace, or good health; however, there are people who have money but are facing some serious unexpected emotional challenge; they have money but do not have peace of mind. I am saying this out of experience. A very wealthy man in the city were I resid lost his mother; the woman was young, but her health issues were severe; the son was distraught; he had enough money for every treatment, but his mother died. He made a statement and said, "above all, everything is just vanity." We try to make money to at least help others who need help, send children to school, and do other important things like OP's topic.
When viewed from the psychological side, money is not a guarantee for a happy life. actually happiness comes from ourselves, if we feel happy even though we live without money, then there is no problem if we don't have to earn large amounts of money, but for me who live in the city, it feels like a requirement to spend money every time we do activities, so I think it's hard to live in the city if you don't have money, and savings and assets for the future when you retire
460  Economy / Economics / Re: Money hardly come this days! Why? on: March 24, 2023, 02:04:13 AM
It is expected, we are going through uncertain economical periods these last three years and it obviously will strike harder against developing nations.
Are you from Nigeria OP? Do you have a job at all?
Because I have read some stuff going on in Nigeria and how make things more gloomy for those looking for ways to sustain their families...

By the way, this could be me but in the case the economical crisis continues on this way, I would not think on getting children any time soon, it would only make things more difficult to me and them, at the same time.
If referring to the scarcity of cash, it seems that it is from Nigeria. but if he refers to "no money" in the sense that he doesn't have money or savings, it means he certainly doesn't have a job at all. And this is a problem for developing countries in the last 3 years since the start of covid-19, everything has become bleaker.

I still do not get what exactly is going on in Nigeria with cash, by the way.
I would have guessed that since the Nigerian government is going for the implementation of their E-Naira, the use of that CBDC's should not be a problem for the most of the population, unless there is a lack of internet access in the rural areas.

Also, someone could have a job and still not having savings or spare money at all, those kind of tight budgets exist.
I will look at the difficulties due to lack of money, this seems to be a massive problem for most people, even though a small number of people find it easy to make money, because they can take advantage of the moment and target the market correctly. but for me since covid happened, it feels very difficult to make ends meet, where prices are getting more expensive, and income is steady, so you have to be very careful in using money
