I no longer trust the policy and decision-makers of Manchester United. Over the time this set of decision makers who call themselves the management have made so much mistakes that were very detrimental to the growth of Manchester United. Since after the father and coach of Manchester United Sir Alex Ferguson departed the club, Manchester United has been a shadow of its own. And all this while we have blamed the failure of Manchester United to the coaches, but with the recent activities going on in the club, I am well convinced that the problem of Manchester United is more of the management than the coaches.

It is time that Manchester United should audit their scout department. For so many years this men in that department have refused to give Manchester United a befitting transfer business. How can you be trying to build a club with old men like casemiro and benzema. Are you now telling me that Real Madrid that is sending them away is foolish? If you take a look at the Real Madrid current squad you will see the young players who are moving the word of football do you want us in the club. Vinicius junior actually has a lot of years to spend in Real Madrid. How about the likes of Rodrigo, Camavinga, Jude Bellingham and others. Those guys are the present and the future while Manchester United is signing the past.

Yea, Op also need to understand that this is network and some set of codes put together to perform a task by getting and fetching. Even in the real life, I can call your name "hugeblack" maybe more than once before you could respond. If that is true, why bother that merit didn't appear almost immediately. It would have been a problem if the merit doesn't appear at all and not because of a little load time delay. Maybe we should learn to overlook insignificant things, else I would complain why it took 3 secs to load this page while I'm on a super network provider.

When I was relatively new here, I had the habit of trying to suggest things to make the forum better or discover wrongly implemented stuffs. But it didn't take long till I fell inlove with this forum and discovered that everything here is good. I really wonder if there will ever be a new forum software.

This is a perfect reply to his curiosity or whatever. There are many forums where users are not paid, he could visit most of them and definitely meet a grave yard and then compare it with here. I don't know why people see signature campaign as a benefit to only the participants while the project owners benefit the most.

• The forum benefits from signature campaigns because it guarantees high level participation and dominance of the forum domain 
• The project owners benefit from the signature campaign because it gives their projects the exposure they want
• The campaign participants benefit by getting weekly bucks 

This is a win-win situation for all and shouldn't pose any problems.

When I joined here newly, I considered stake as a spam campaign. But today, their participants post long wall of text(almost all), if quality is a measure of post length, which is how it is generally regarded here, it could be said that Stake participants no longer spam

I don't understand why you feel that he is wrong. There's a great correlation between ads and campaigns because both are intending to promote. If there are two methods of promoting projects in the forum, one is suspended, you don't actually need a soothsayer to tell you that the second means of advertisement will gain more popularity. Theymos decision to stop forum paid advertisement has in many ways helped the forum to improve through signature campaign. We can be proud that bitcointalk is known for signature campaigns and it has been sustained for a long period of time. The only drawback it encountered in the recent time is the mixer ban. This actually reduced the pricing of signature campaigns because mixers were the big payers.

I registered here 2021 and I think I have witnessed the forum advertisement before it was stopped by theymos. It was running concurrently with the signature campaign because if you can't advertise with one, you can with the other.

This is just the simple truth and I think it is what people need to consider before buying bitcoin rather they concentrate in other things. The all-time high of Bitcoin is about $69,000 and currently Bitcoin is below $50,000 which makes it a very good time to buy. The reason it is still fair to buy at this price is because even if Bitcoin surpasses its previous all time high, it is not going to stop there, it will definitely move further to make a new all time high which means more percentage to your holding. I know that the current price would be somwhat reluctant for anyone who has witnessed bitcoin last year at the range of $15,000. But then if anyone misses 15,000, they should not also means to enter at the 40,000 because the market might not reverse again till it makes a new all time high.

The market is still fairly nice for both short time investors and long time investors, especially as there are news of beautiful market in the future where the US government has approved the ETF Bitcoin and also bull run is on the way. Few days ago, the market was dragged so much down, so it is a buying opportunity for everyone. From 47k to 42k.

If this story is true, you wouldn't have been bothered about the current price of bitcoin. Someone has been into Bitcoin for over 10 years must have witnessed upto 3 halvings and bull runs. So, if people like me are worried, you are supposed to be the one to calm me that all is will be fine and not you bothering about the bitcoin price.

While market novice have thought that the price will skyrocket immediately ETF is approved, experts know that the market needs time to set for the upwards trend. Believe me that it's gonna be massive when it starts. Also like halving and bull run, some novice will also think that on the day of halving will bull run start.

The excitement days have just started.

I love topics like this, because one day you will look back to this day and could love your first post or laugh at how silly you were. Once in a while I do visit my first post in this forum and laugh at it. Although, it was a logical post but then, that wasn't a type of post that a new commer should make. For your own case, it is different of course because your post is simple and not provoking anyone.
Welcome to the forum, and my advice is that you should continue to learn about bitcoin and even advance the more. This is because this could be the early morning of cryptocurrency. More things could unfold in the future and by then you must have placed yourself very well in the industry.

Welcome to the forum.
A good start will be to start learning about the forum. Any new association you find yourself, you should first know about the environment, their dos and don'ts before you talk about benefiting from the place. If not, you will short live your presence there. I would not blame you for coming out plain to say the reason you are here. Some persons who are here just to earn only pretends that they aren't here to earn but their actions show what they are actually for. You came out plain, and lucky you have a service you offer. It would have been nice you linked your thread in this post, but I'm gonna check it out myself.

If the service you render is in demand, the forum members will definitely patronise you. But I'm sorry to say, your business would have been seamless if you stayed around for some time and build your forum rank first and as well as consolidate your reputation. Reputable people have no problems doing business here. But new people like you will need to stick around the escrow system always for your deals.

My inability to know when to enter the Altcoins coins market is my biggest problem. The other day I have wanted to try out some altcoins and immediately after the Bitcoin ETF approval I bought solana @97 dollars and it immediately started dipping untill it got to 88 and later around 94 dollars. I don't know what to do anymore, whether to wait and collect back my capital when the market gets to 97 or I should hold and see SOL do 100+. I am obviously not good in altcoins investment. I have wanted to see how to earn from altcoins but it has never worked for me.

Now I am seeing that altcoins might possibly fall again. Although, I know these things are just speculations. It might happen so and it might not happen. If anyone is seeing this post and has a lil advice to give me, you can use my DM as I have deactivated my telegram notification.

You have made a very clear point which I think that every trader should consider put it into practice, but I will have to point out something maybe it could be a grammatical error that made the meaning of the whole sentence to change. You said that a trade that should not enter into the market when he is not sure. But I can confidently tell you that no trader is everly sure of the market because the nature of the market makes it to be that no one is sure about the direction of the market. If anyone could be sure of the market at any given time it is no longer trading, I will  just wait at a particular time and put my money and take profit. We should rather use the statement that a thread that should not enter into the market when there is no clear direction or when his strategy does not permit that he should enter the market. Do not be first to enter the market because you have some financial needs that you need to sort out that is one of the things that I get wrong and every time I enter the package because I want to make some financial expenses it does not end well.
Meanwhile, every trader should come to the reality that they will either lose or win so if you only have the mindset of winning while trading you would get it wrong and all your decisions will not be in tandem with the market. As the topic creator have said, there is always an opportunity to enter the market so while haste and waste your money when there is no clear opportunity to enter the market. Patience is a virtue and anyone who intends to be a trader must possessed the attribute of being patient and also the ability to control their emotion. If you are sure of your strategy even when the market is against you maintain the strategy and when you lose you will be proud that they'vs applied your strategy and it failed. You will tend to develop another strategy.

I have had an experience of trading bots, but not actually in the cryptocurrency industry rather in the forex trade. My experience of the trading bot was very horrible and unforgettable. I wish I never knew what trading bots was about, but my personal experience might not actually be the universal experience of what these bots are all about. As a beginner the use of bots in the forex trading had the following effects on me;

• It made me lose a huge amount of money that I could not afford to lose
• It made me develop phobia for trading
• It made me not to understand the basics or fundamentals of trading 
• It somewhat made me to fall out of love with automation 

I see bots as tools to use within a short period of time for a continuous trade that have to be monitored and not necessarily for continuous trading without a human intervention. When you want to stay off the screen for a short period of time just as used stop loss and take profits works.

I have listened to a financial advisor and there was a statement that he made that made me think twice and even till today I am still ruminating the statement. He said that it is more difficult to keep money but easier to make money. He went further to say that if you check many people around you they have handled thousands and millions at a particular time in their life but then they were unable to keep this money till another time of their life that they are unable to see such amount of money again. At a point I had to agree with the advisor. Money is hard to make but harder to sustain but in all it is very easy to spend.

I am not comfortable believing this story of yours you told. If someone had invested in Bitcoin and made huge amount of money he should be considered financially literate and not to meet any other person to teach him another type of investment in order not to return to poverty. I put it to you that anyone who is able to invest in Bitcoin and have good returns has already known the methods of investment and does not actually need to employ any other person to teach him where again to invest.

Learning financial management is not easy. It is a discipline that takes discipline to learn. Just like telling investors or gamblers to only gamble with what they can afford to lose. As we all know, this does not always happen. It can be said that it takes as much effort as it takes to make money in order to learn how to manage the money. Personal accountability is necessary to the financial growth of an individual. I had one tried to be personally accountable but it did not end well because of inconsistency. This year I should honestly try to learn personal accountability again and implement it because in the previous years I had spent so much that I needed not to and could not also track my spendings. I have read from a financial expert that the two sure ways to be financially comfortable is to earn more, if you cannot earn more at the moment, you have to spend less. Relating this to myself, I am unable to earn more at this moment but I keep spending more which is a very bad habit.

It is time we begin to adhere to the instruction of economics and what actually propelled my decision to reapply the person accountability is your statement that "We will not earn the same amount of income throughout our lives".

4 years...
Bestchange campaign is older than me in this forum and he has sustained the campaign non stop. A big congratulations. As a newbie, I witnessed some reputable and good posters in Bestchange campaign, such as CryptopreneurBrainboss, Ratimov, Lovesmayfamilis, Nultida, Hugeblack, Poka player etc. There were many of them but it could be that the people I listed above in one way or the other affected me. They were somewhat competing with the chipmixer participants. From newbie to Legendary and Bestchange is stil here.

Congratulations to Bestchange and its campaign participants. Here has been cool from day 1 till date.

OP isn't criticizing theymos decision to ban mixers. He only pointed out the effect of mixer ban in Bitcointalk. But I think that there is no problem anywhere. Theymos decision simply favoured Altcoinstalks forum, and did not take any traffic off from bitcointalk.
BTT just gave Altt some number of participants and did not lose any. It is just about those that has the ability to dualize.
If today theymos makes a rule that it is either you are here or there, but not both, everyone will immediately desert there. But that is not a rule that theymos will make.
Maybe theymos is somewhat happy that another forum got lucky by his decision. Having an alternative forum is fine, incase theymos falls out of love with the US government. So, there's nothing to bother. Where I think will be an issue is in the case of newbies. If the DT bullies here are not lenient on newbies, they might likely run to the other forum where growth is faster and without merits

The ETF bitcoin approval is not what happens everyday. I can say that we are just lucky that it happened now. So, there's nothing bad if they create topics about it. This is a contemporary news and it should be making the waves for now. Please, do not be devastated when you stumble of multiple topics about ETF approval. What you should do is to preach that there should be a single thread to collect all the related topics. And if you see an obvious spam about ETF, you kindly report to the moderators. Let the joy flow .

No matter how repetitive the topics appear in the forum, just within few weeks it will also fade away. Maybe bull run topics will come and slso fade away, so it shouldn't bother us much.

Bitcoin is to different people different things, and what triggers their choices of the use of bitcoin is the knowledge of bitcoin. How well do they know about bitcoin. OP, you are not alone, when I first heard about bitcoin and did a lil research about it , I had thought that bitcoin is only meant to be bought and resell and make profit. And if we are honest about bitcoin, this is the exact idea of that brought many newbies into bitcoin. It is only a few that embraced Bitcoin because of ;

• Privacy
• Decentralization
• Being their own bank

It is after you must have embraced bitcoin and become lucky to locate a forum like this that you will be exposed to more information about bitcoin. Talking about the ability to share information about bitcoin for free, this forum is second to none

Apart from in Bitcoin analysis, there is no type of analysis that does not put into account the history occurrences. Without past will present not form and on the basics of the present is the future formed. Although, historic trace alone cannot give you a well defined or an independently reliable information. There are other factors which negates the history track record most times.
In a nutshell, I can say that Bitcoin price history is important to every bitcoiner, but should be more important to say traders and short term investors. I think HODLERS are free from the headache of price crises.

This is where fundamental and technical analysis meets and augments each other

When we talk about business we are talking about profits and losses. It is either you are making profit in business or you are always losing and whether you are making profits or you are losing is a product of the decisions you make in your business. The decision to accept Bitcoin in your business is not what the business owner is supposed to take independently. The first question that will arise or that needs an urgent attention is whether or not the people that will patronize your business will actually need Bitcoin. Even if it is proven that bitcoin is actually the feature of finance, you do not actually need to incorporate it as a payment method for your business if your customers are not digital. Again, even if your customers are digital customers and they would actually accept using bitcoin as a means of payment, as a business owner how do you intend handling the volatility of Bitcoin. I mean what happens if the money plenty to you by a customer drops up to 4% in the next day that we were supposed to return to market.
Apart from that we have seen the recent mess in the Bitcoin mempool. If things continue to get messy who will pay the gross transaction fee of Bitcoin. If you also decide to use the normal transaction fee your business money could stock in the memory pool of Bitcoin network for weeks which is very detrimental to the growth of any business. I sincerely advice that you should take a sample opinion of your customers in the form of questionnaire to know if actually you need to implement Bitcoin payment gateway or you will stick to the traditional system of payment..
