The author of the tweet argues that in order to use bitcoin, people should not be required to know or comprehend theories and technologies on which bitcoin is standing. He claims that for bitcoin to be successfully adopted, it needs to be simplified to such extent when people don't bother to know how it works, why it works, what purposes it was created for, etc.
-snip-
This is the part where I totally agree with the author. It is not necessary for people to know how bitcoin works. I mean it is good if they want to learn, but it isn't mandatory for them to lean. If you start teaching them what blockchain is and the technology behind it, they will start thinking it is a complex way of making payment. Instead they should be taught the very basics like how to keep a wallet secure, how to send and receive coins and what fees are. There are tons of people out there that doesn't know how Paypal works (the technology and mechanism behind it), yet they can still send and receive payments without any problem. Some people do really get easily discourage when someone do tend to teach them on a very complex way.Basic aspects of bitcoin will really be enough to poke out their interest specially if its a new way payment system plus having the chance on money-making opportunity if had done it right.I cant say that adoption is too slow and if we do base up on how big we are compared on past 10 years then we can eventually say that we did really move forward. 10 years time is still young and theres still a huge room to grow.Lets not rush up because people will eventually find out on bitcoins existence. We shouldnt really be that too impatient because everything would have its own time. |

Might be outdated but still worth for you to read on https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1629118.0 .You are right that money or earnings cant really be attained overnight and of course it would really need to do some work and some money to invest on.If you dont have money to invest then skills would be your last option.What skills you do have? Majority of people here do offer out services https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=52.0 on this board or majority of people do some bounties to earn some coins https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=238.0but theres no assurance that you would be making constant profit or earning on here. Start with the basics and take up some time to learn up things that circulating into this forum. |

Dont know why a few month ago serching for coins or tokens to invest in on kraken i found that one. It was at 2 dollars and a horrible grafic. From 50$ to 250 then to 1$. But the total supply of 1.5M and the simplicity of the project, Makes me give a try. And boum went to 20 dollars, sell. remind in 10...and... Boum 80 dollars.. LOL. With a mcap of 90m only i made my greatest rentability.
so my wonder is what can happend here.?. Should i take profit cause it will go again to 1 or shoul i trade and buy strong at 55 cause it can go to...where? What do you think about this token.? I know is a shit coin but...who cares? The thing is working like noone expect 4 years ago. If btc raises to 54k what this thing will do? I predict 11k... U will say im crazy but the whole thing in crypto is crazy.. btc is swiming relaxed at 12k...Whatever...thanks for reading and plese do some reserch and buy this shit. 🙄
Good for you that you do make out such profit on such shitty coin and asking neither you would buy it again then its your choice since its your money but to give out some suggestion is that you do much better to secure out first your capital and make those profits do the rolling.In case the market turns out to be shit then you wont end up empty handed since you have already take aside on what you initially invested. If you do make money out of those buy and sells then stick into that and still make use of those movements for your benefits because its just too rare for a shit coin to jump in on high multiplies. Take advantage to it but always expect that things wont work out as you always anticipate. |

The 2016/17 bull run was just for about 9month and it hit around $20k, I never thought it will end so soon then,while I was still strategizing on how to get the best of it, the time was up, it was like a movie as it was sliding down gradually,hoping it will rise till today, the few project campaign I participate in then were just what payed me well, few of them dropped their token which I never touched till today because they have so much lost value, now as the bull run commences,let's say it runs for a year, how many project campaign do you plan to cover within the period?
Project campaign? You do mean about bounties? If yes, then im not really that much into it yet choosing the best one or legit project is really pain in the ass considering the number of frauds and scam projects in the market then you would surely have a hard time on selecting which one you would participate into.The market can really be either on bull or bear and we cant just expect that it would just stay for that high for a very long time.Of course there would be correction on next in line and also you arent the only one who do suffer such situation where they cant sell of their bags because of too much low of the price or shall we say its just peanuts.When choosing some bounties then this would really vary on a certain person and of course chances on making money is very less. |

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?
Go for Both since these things can really possibly give out some effects on price movement but always think that this doesnt work anytime yet market is very unpredictable on most cases neither you do hear up on a certain news and presume out that it will rise but it did go on the opposite way then thats really a disaster and this is what makes too hard on dealing with this kind of market but somewhat majority of traders do make use of technicals.It might not be a guarantee for it to work but it is way more better rather or compared on trading without any basis or indicator. If you do look that fundamental trading do works for you then stick to it but if not then try technicals, its just a matter of mixing up or trial and error and do look on what works for you. |

I found this article in Forbes over the weekend and it got me to thinking: If we are seeing articles in Forbes that means Decentralised Finance is reaching the eyes and ears of the masses. Question: Have you heard of DeFi?
If you have heard of DeFi, do you think its going to disrupt the multi-trillion dollar financial service industry or do you think its going to implode and destroy itself? Or do you think something in between those two polar opposites. Same as usual and its not really that revolutionary for these DeFi projects and this is just like what happened with ICO and IEO in the past and when those markets arent really making any profits or buzz then its anticipated that there would be always a new one would replace the spot and as of this year we are already talking about DeFi's. When it comes to investment suggestion then its up to you if you do go along with the ride or would simply skip out but there are actually people whom do made some risk and did really make out some profits but for long term aspect then im not really that expecting much. |

everything is true because bounty hunters are only paid 1 to 2 percent of the total tokens that will be sold so it doesn't really matter with the bounty hunter If the project is good, of course there will be many traders so that token bounty that want to be directly bought by the trader
I'll be honest with you some coins dump temporarily after Bounty distribution if the Bounty allocation is extremely large and buy orders are not huge. The best strategy for a team is to ensure some level of buy back if the coin lacks sufficient liquidity. However, good projects with high demand level for their coin do not need to worry at all since the effect will be negligible. Like OP mentioned, bad projects equal bad results and the project and its coin will go extinct over time even without Bounty distribution. As expected where bounty hunters would always took the blame in talks into these kind of common dumps that do happen after distribution without even talking about the investors itself? You know that its only mostly on 1% total allocation of bounty tokens compared to those investors who do bought bulks.Its understandable though that it can make such impact if the said volume on said exchange isnt really that big which is pretty common but as said that good projects wouldnt really matter on this kind of issue yet they can stand on such scenario of being dumped and when demand and interest is there then recovery would really be a guaranteed thing. |

It looks amazing but I don't think it will be a bangers for the gamblers. I think this really suit those gamers and those games that they love transferring into VR but we can do slots and dices without VR. We can still do poker, blackjack and roulette without it. I guess they could test gamers on VR chat by adding a dimension there where they could gamble, still, I think it will still be for gamers and not gamblers.
We're going to the generation where most of the things are going fully digital. It won't be long that casinos will also become VR as there are games that's already into this type of reality. That will give another experience and that's what others want, to experience new things related to gambling. I think that it will be a fun experience if there will be a VR casino and you only have to wear that device on our eyes, I forgot that device's name. It is obvious at least to me that there is going to be a great push for this technology, just think about the savings this will bring to the casino industry, while it is obvious that many people are going to like to keep gambling in physical casinos if the environments are realistic enough and instead of bringing a single player experience they make it multiplayer it will not be that different from going to a physical casino with the advantage of being able to gamble from the comfort of your own home. Nothing beats out when you do really able to make social interactions face to face rather than on seeing people in virtual mode.Its my own preference though but its always a better experience when you do meet up people on that way but even though this kind of innovation or option isnt a bad idea either because you can really play in the comfort of your home without the need on going out specially now that we are amidst on a pandemic situation.I cant say that this will really take gambling to new level but it would really be a good add up and it depends already on a gambler if he would prefer on using it or stick into the conventional way. |

Monero coins have been delisted from the list due to government policies and regulations due to the high number of criminal cases using monero transactions due to high privacy. This will have no impact even if monero is no longer traded on Houbi, XMR is still tradable on other major exchanges.
Yeah but for how long... Sooner or later those exchanges will be given 2 options: 1- Do as we say and keep your business (or what's left of it) 2- Go to jail In the end of this, xmr will be just like what btc was once. A low marketcap coin only the drug dealers use. Low marketcap? Its unlikely to happen and never ever underestimate or look down much on how these drug dealers you've been calling or similar people who do make use on illegal aspect that could create huge volume even if they dont need to deal up with centralized exchangers.If this one gets gradually delisted then there are still some options left but to say that this would really be hard until everything would really be closed or prohibited down for XMR but its just too early to presume things out but it isnt surprising that government is trying to suppress all things that would really oppose centralization which isnt a shocking thing. |

Bitcoin whipsawed on Thursday after the Federal Reserve’s chairman signaled tolerance for high inflation, as expected. The leading cryptocurrency jumped from $11,400 to $11,594 in 20 minutes to 09:30 a.m. ET only to give up gains in the next few minutes. At press time, bitcoin is trading near $11,380, down nearly 1% on the day, according to CoinDesk's Bitcoin Price Index.
The dollar index, which tracks the value of the greenback against majors, also faded the drop to 92.50 and now trades near 93.30.
The negative correlation between the dollar and bitcoin has strengthened over the past few weeks.
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, while speaking at central bank's annual Jackson Hole event, said that the central bank will now be willing to allow inflation to run higher than the 2% target before raising interest rates. Reference- https://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-pops-and-drops-after-powell-introduces-average-inflation-targeting 1% movement and now you do correlate Bitcoinsp rice into that Average Inflation? If you've been here for a while now then this 1% that youve been talking is just a typical thing to happen. Bitcoin can move without any of these sentiments and its always been like this where it can even swing up its price for 10% or more without even knowing the true reason behind of such movement.This is why im not really that much interested when it comes to these matters on where you do correlate Bitcoin or crypto market on traditional news or sentiments but somewhat there are instances that might really be connected but it doesnt matter that much. |

Thoughts?  My thoughts on this that people would never ever lost is confidence or trust in the banking system that we have known. Crypto might really give out some revolutionary effects but this one will really be just staying as an alternative.As long government do exist on this world it cant really able to become the mainstream.Being optimistic isnt bad but hoping that much on a thing that is nearly impossible to happen can really frustrate you that hard and also i dont really correlate Bitcoin or crypto economy compared to traditional stocks/bonds/assets that we have known.We didnt even know the exact reason on why crypto market had risen or increase in spite of the verge of pandemic situation. |

According to CoinMarketCap, there are 6,588 cryptocurrencies being traded on the market right now. Almost every day we see new ambitious crypto projects being listed on major crypto exchanges, but only a select few are useful for the mainstream world. We already have Bitcoin and Ethereum, which are the most prominent cryptocurrencies on the market. Most (if not all) cryptocurrencies' code are based on either the Bitcoin or Ethereum blockchains. If we put aside additional features and base ourselves on the core blockchain protocol, then Bitcoin and Ethereum may be the only cryptocurrencies humanity needs to participate in the decentralized economy. I think that there are way too many cryptocurrencies and tokens on the market these days, considering that not everyone uses all of them for daily payments. Some developers launch new cryptocurrencies with no real use cases for the mainstream world just to make a quick buck. Do you think the crypto market is saturated? If not, why? Your input will be greatly appreciated.  98% of them are shit and 2% are actually having that real life usage and i do consider those coins who had been using similar platforms and we know that there are certain projects does have its own blockchain or shall we say the original ones and the rest are just copying it out without any real-life case usage.Im not saying its saturated but its flocked with lots of shitcoins that are just hoping for them to get big and made those owners or creators hell of a rich guy.Theres no other reason why we've been flooded by useless coins thats why we should really be careful on selecting on where we do put or invest our money. |

Like you, I am a citizen of a country where Bitcoin is considered illegal and there is no right way for me to do business with Bitcoin. There is no secure business so i trade and to sell bitcoin i take help from the website where they have been honestly buying and selling for a long time.
Although i have to work from confidential to crypto but so far i have not encountered any problems.
But one day bitcoin will be legalized in my country.
Just be careful on doing up things because if its considered illegal and when you get caught then you do know the consequences but somehow we are confident on dealing up with crypto due to anonymity which cant really be easily traced if you are dealing with it secretly and thanks to that even if its banned or illegal into our place but we can still choose to engage with it without being caught.This is one of the common reasons or problems for those people who do like to deal with crypto but their current countries jurisdiction do really give out that wall which would really make the citizen hesitate but for those who are dedicated to deal with it then they can opt to bypass without the need of any permission. |

Yes!
For that situation, Brave gets the one to be the winner on this matter. Whether you like to take your rewards or not, it's on them because it will only be stored on them.
They have higher cut on the earnings with their ads partner, the rewards are not that much compare to what they earn from it.
Thats how business works and for those people who do make use of this browser and didnt tend to get those BAT rewards then that would be actually a good thing for them which it would really be a less on expense in that case.Also, i cant really blame those people who do use up this browser not just because of the rewards but rather into its functionality and im one of those people who've been using this in spite of that peanut earning opportunity which isnt really worth of but it doesnt really require that much of an effort to earn those points but if you do consider this as a faucet and just imply click without minding on how much you do already earn then its your choice. I'm into its functionality that's why I'm not interested of getting the current reward that's pending on me. I was too late to get it as well so I have no choice but to leave it on the balance that I have. Less expense in RAM so for those low gb ram computers, this can be of their choice. I agree on what you have said when it comes to functionality unlike other browsers which isnt really that lite as this. You can have an option that private window integrated with Tor which you can access by press Alt+ Shift+ N which a feature that you cant really found in any browsers and which i do also like.This BAT rewards system did really make out some noise wayback when they are just starting.I dont know if rewards had decreased or just similar when they had started but in conclusion it isnt really worth for the time to be wasted. |

I'm quite confident that those who bought at 3000 USD were the lucky ones. If we ever see such levels again it will be in the next big bear market after the new ATH.
But unfortunately, many had missed the train and have regrets. People never think that possibility as we brag by this pandemic and cause to think negatively about it, but just surprise us how it rises despite the situation. Those who have guts and strongly trusted Bitcoin have also being paid of, they are actually seeing it while the others did not. The market keeps moving high and people started accumulating more cryptos. This it helps to keep the momentum on the right track and I was seeing strong ends this year. true, I also really believe that bitcoin will continue to move stronger and will reach its peak next year. if the end of this year it is predicted that bitcoin can reach $ 15K then it is certain that next year's bitcoin will be many times over from 2017. and those who have held bitcoin for a long time will certainly reap the rewards, but it's never too late because the time is still long at least we can also enjoy a little of the opportunities that exist, if you want to try to exchange altcoins to Bitcoin. YES! Great things take time. Actually 20-30% down in a day is very ordinary in the crypto market. This isn't new so don't be a crying when you you should perform make a buy order! People are gonna be fearful ATM but when things settle down it will have some bounce normally! For people who had been here on this market for a while now wont really be surprised into these kind of events but for who did just recently joined the party will really get shocked on what happened specially if the price had plummeted down into these certain ranges or percentages but actually recovery phase would always be on the end of the line. We cant just see a market that do continously fall down without any recovery.When it comes to price movement then Bitcoin and altcoins are correlated to each other(sometimes not) some do presume out and do include it into their investment analysis. |

Theers nothing you can do but to hold those shit tokens into your bag and just hope for that coin to be listed again on some exchange and sell it off immediately if you do have the chance. This is a common mistake where people do buy tons of coins in an unknown or not so popular exchange and i dont know on what are their criterias on considering it out rather than focusing or directly prefer bitcoin into their investment options.For alts then its still questionable and high likely for you to fail.It would be more better and much more wiser if you do rather select top alts on buying rather than buying unknown coins into an unknown exchange. lol |

Ride the hype, quickly quit after profit, and watch them die.
The hype is real these days, I've never seen people who got this hype before, not even in 2017. We see a lot of projects pumping last week, quite silent for now tho, where are the LINK and BAND fans? seems you guys are bit frustrated after seeing the price went down instead of going $20. Sometimes the hype are being started by the team itself, they are just giving you an update which is not that great but sounds great for you. Anyways it is really cool seeing a version 2.0 of something.
The question is would you able to ride it on the right time? Majority will fall on ending up to ride when they are already in the end-part of the rope.This is pretty common and this hadnt only happen on this time but since this market was started.Hype is just part of the ecosystem on where shitcoins been pumped and dumped hard until they do die and repeat the same process. Lucky for those people who do able to join the ride and unlucky for those people who got caught into the peak price and ending up on holding lots of shitcoins into their bags. Mistakes are there but in next time you would be aware on how this market moves and do make out fake pumps for lots of people do believe and get fooled. |

They are not allowing visa and mastercard for betting, but they are also not allowing people to access crypto betting websites like sportsbet,
so it is not an easy solution. Problem is that I think other countries may follow German example, and that is bad.
What is next? They can ban alcohol and bad food, and who knows what next and make one big concentration camp again.
There must be some freedom and responsibility and less restrictions for online betting.
Every country have their own regulation about gambling but this one is quite harsh because they totally shun every payment processor and this might include Cryptocurrency so they may not be surge after all the article says they will have regulation, what kind of that regulation when they are banning all kinds and forms of payment, they might totally ban it. They can only ban gambling sites which are in operation under their regulation, not a crypto gambling sites outside their country, so that would make bitcoin casino to surge in the crypto market, not in german market. I guess the title should be, bitcoin to surge in german market, not the casinos. And those gamblers can access these crypto casinos by going around the internet. They can always find a work around if some sites are banned in their country. Since bitcoin is treated as legal in Germany, they have no problem in dealing with cryptocurrencies. https://nomoretax.eu/bitcoin-tax-haven-germany/Its likely that they would really be open in terms of cryptocurrency ventures or investments that would run up under their jurisdiction and since they do have positive perspective towards crypto then there no doubt that there would be no problems in terms of legal aspect.Just one thing comes to my mind on why they do banned out Visa and mastercard.So gambling places out there or owners wont really have any choice but to go along with new payment system which would be on crypto.They can still make profits on that. |

strange phenomena continue to appear on the cryptocurrency market. I want to know your opinion about this cryptocurrency, just launched a few days and has entered the top 7 ranking on Coingecko. Any coin will definitely had the chance on getting top spot ranking on a certain platform but if we do try to check out the liquidity and the volume then you would able to tell the difference on what coin does have an organic increase compared to those who do just being pumped in a short time.About that polkadot project, from the name itself then i cant already trust it up. I havent read up on whats the project is all about but talking about seriousness, the name implies the opposite.Its just my own view though but if you do chose up to risk some money on it then its your choice. |

There are many crypto token listed in coinmarketcap and been traded in top exchanges like binance, Yobit and lDex exchange which people consider as proficient enough in the cryptocurrency market and knowing well that Eth is ranking number 2 position in the coinmarketcap, let's discuss Do you think that any new crypto currency overtake Eth in times of price value can that be possible?
It had already been overtaken by XRP for how many times as far as i remember but that one didnt last out that long and ETH do able to reclaim its spot. https://cointelegraph.com/news/ripple-briefly-overtakes-ethereum-again-to-become-largest-altcoin-by-market-capIf that thing do happen then we can really presume out that it can really happen again not only just for ETH itself but also with BTC as well. Nothing do last forever or do remain into its spot but we can somewhat assure that they would really remain for that long considering into their community support or on how big it is. |
