It is funny that you mentioned about 'repetitive education' and correlate it with successful professions such as lawyers, accountants, and doctors. Bitcoins are not easy to acquire and they are not easily generated.


Educating children about the basics of earning money will help them develop their attitude in saving their resources responsibly. Again, bitcoins are not easy to earn and many people struggle to acquire them due to multiple reasons which I am sure you will not understand;


This statement contradicts with your first one and what are your basis for saying that we have a failed millennial* generation today? I really do think that you should do research before making baseless conclusions such as this one.

The internet is your best friend when looking for something to learn on. It contains unlimited information and various study materials available to the public but you must know what to search in the first place.
Browse through the forums and use the search bar located at the upper right hand corner to scan through various posts about it. In addition, there are also generous people in the forum who are willing to share their knowledge about blockchain!

I also recommend reading these two (2) books:
1. Mastering Bitcoin by Andreas M. Antonopolous; and
2. Blockchain Revolution by Donn Tapscott.

Both books provide a quick insight and background about the blockchain technology and its components.

Bitcoin will not replace fiat in the near future due to a variety of reasons: First, given the economic discrepancy between developed and underdeveloped countries, many individuals who stay in the latter do not have access to electricity, which is the foundation and platform used by bitcoin. Second, given the scarce amount of bitcoin, whales who own most bitcoins can potentially manipulate the prices, thus making the poor poorer and the rich richer. Third, bitcoin is a volatile, decentralized currency. Having to price mediums under bitcoin would result to an unbalance market.

The difference between bitcoin and gold mostly stem from their nature- bitcoin being intangible and gold being tangible. Gold also has an innate value due to being a precious metal. Although both are scarce, gold cannot surpass bitcoin at the time being.

I apologize, it seems that I construe the news as a factor for Bitcoin in becoming a platform for everyone to use. The reality is the phone is on the strong side here, by implementing a feature that supports Bitcoin and ETH wallets, they can increase their sales. Another thing, I did not consider that bitcoin has a constant price which contradicts my assumption about 'regaining its value' since its volatile in the market.


Any positive signs of increase is good news compared to news that says a decrease on its price. Although the 'bull run' may be relative, some individuals purchased bitcoins when the initial price was lower compared to the price of today- that's why they see it as a bull run. But you're definitely right, it really depends on the time you acquired your coins. 

If a coin stabilizes its price, it contradicts its very purpose since what dictates the price are the demand and supply of each coin in the market. In addition, most individuals acquire and purchase cryptocurrencies to take advantage of their volatility for short or long-term investments. Unlike any conventional investments present in the market, mostly are centralized and governed by each agency which foresees the transactions.
The purpose on why bitcoin skyrocketed was due to the fact of its high-volatility which can garner large amounts of profits in a short amount of time compared to stocks, bank deposits, gold investments, etc.


Another thing to note is its scarcity. Many individuals compare bitcoin to gold and view it as 'digital-gold' due to its limited number of amount in the market. There are many factors to consider about the volatility of cryptocurrencies especially when government agencies or large investment companies intervene with the said processes and spread false news.

That is the reason on why ethical considerations regarding environmental concerns are starting to rise due to the by-product of mining- which is pollution and energy. Maybe another alternative is to find techniques to introduce 'energy saving methods' by considering the geographical location or by considering the use of renewable energy.


I think he is already thinking of alternatives about shifting the consumption of electricity by inculcating their design used on Tesla. Mining definitely uses huge consumption of energy and it is starting to cause pollution in some locations. Given its popularity steadily increasing, I see this as a problem when not addressed in the future.

First, remain calm despite the significant decrease in price. I typically invest the money that I am willing to lose and regardless of what the result may be I will hold my bitcoins until they achieve my long-term goal. I only invest 10% of my income to cryptocurrencies and diversify by acquiring different coins (ETH, Litecoin, and XRP) to minimize my losses.


Before you invest, know what your goal is. If you determine that by purchasing bitcoin at a specific price, your goal must be at least to accumulate profit depending on your target margin. If price falls unexpectedly, holding may be the better decision instead of panic-selling/liquidating most of your bitcoins. Again, only invest the money that you are willing to lose.

I checked their website and saw that there are items categorized as 'apparels'.
Seeing that they sell shoes (which contains specific sizes- 9-9.5, etc.), I believe that those shoes are real items which can be sold, traded and bought at the website.

Most individuals purchase virtual items to feel this sense of uniqueness whenever they play. Although it is purely for aesthetic, to have something which most players do not have feels rewarding.
Just to add some information about virtual items being sold at ridiculous prices, this item was sold for roughly around $80,000 dollars (490,620 cat coins converted) in the game Ragnarok Eternal Love (only 1 in the game!).

Just to add, here are other cryptocurrencies that increased their prices recently:

1. Ethereum - 10% increase
2. XRP - 8% increase
3. EOS - 20% surge

The market has been positive lately and with the recent development of the highly-speculated Samsung Galaxy X10 (that contains a crypto-wallet that supports both Bitcoin and Ethereum), prices may potentially regain its value slowly in the following weeks to come.

Su Zhu, the CEO of Three Arrows Capital, posted on Twitter that there is an estimated amount of 6$ billion sitting at cryptofunds, stablecoins, and exchange/silvergate/signatures. This may additionally cascade into pushing the price of BTC to beyond $4,000 in the following weeks to come.

Unfortunately, individuals who rely on the decision of large/famous investors and companies tend to be followed most of the time resulting to a backlash on cryptocurrencies' popularity in general. One thing to note here, most large investing companies follow the conventional way of investing and trading resources. One of their core arguments tackle on the lack of any innate value, due to being digital cash.

On the other hand, if they rely on famous investors about their opinions about cryptocurrency, then read they might want to check this article (https://www.coinspeaker.com/bitcoin-paper-money-elon-musk/) about Elon Musk stating that bitcoin is better than paper money!

It is purely paramount for an individual to do his/her own research before believing into such companies that has the potential to manipulate and diverse the view of public.

According from the latest charts, bitcoin has increased by at least 5% from its price and other altcoins are currently developing from their bear state. With this being said, the bull run of bitcoin might be sooner that we had expected. This may be an opportunity for most investors to regain the value of their investment.






Whales have the capacity to manipulate the price by acquiring most of the bitcoins in this fragile market price. The bull run can be predicted by studying the market and developing awareness by educating individuals about cryptocurrency may be the first step towards achieving profit. But one must know how to educate himself in order to avoid such loss. Relying too much on others might yield the opposite effect on what they have in mind.

I would be suggesting that you diversify your investments by considering other investing methods present (bank notes, stocks, cryptocurrencies). By this way, you may be able to minimize your chances of loss by the end of the investment period. Another thing, index stock funds are an alternative if you are relatively new to stocks since it follows blue-chip companies price. Categorize each of your investment whether for short or long-term.


With the popularity of ICOs being tarnished by recent scams and shenanigans, I do not suggest in investing into such. Given the returns are relatively low plus the chance of losing your investment completely, the risk definitely outweighs the reward from this point.

Bitcoin mining is probably considered as a business which can garner large amounts of income, given the right resources and location of the plant. Although the presence of miners have been continuously increasing, news spreading about its environmental effects are also starting to manifest.
Like what most people have mentioned, one consideration can be shifting its power by to renewable/natural resources for its energy. Many countries practice the use of maximizing their natural resources and converting them to power depending on their geographic location.
Another consideration can be by setting a limitation or cap on power.

I guess the safest way to address the critics is to provide a framework about the proper disposition of pollution. The task is relatively difficult but it is definitely achievable with both sides benefitting.


Many of the industrial problems are caused by companies who monopolized a certain industry, which the general public rely on. Although the waste that they produce certainly affects the environment, the government cannot simply penalized them without giving compromises. Mining, on the other hand, is a relatively new type of business which is on its embryonic stage. From this standpoint, the pollution can be controlled by introducing techniques which can lessen its detrimental effects.

I totally disagree.
People seem to realize that the activity of the forum correlates around the number of spammers WHEN the price of each bitcoin was steadily increasing, which is not the case. For individuals who seem to care only to the monetary opportunities arising from the forum, they based the activity on the number of posts they see or comments that are created by spammers.
Ever since the merit system was implemented, it filtered out most of the spammers including people who purely chased profits due to the stringent requirements of campaign managers.


Please provide any concrete data and evidence on where you gained this number. Posting any false/misleading data can qualify your account to be sanctioned.

I strictly advise that you read the forum rules spotted on the first page. You are unqualified to participate in the campaign due to your lack of merits required, as stated by the campaign manager.

It depends totally but to minimize your losses, it is preferably that you allocate your resources into all possible platforms. Before, cryptocurrency has been profitable in the long-term due to its price volatility.
An individual, without knowing what bitcoin truly is, may purchase and garner income due to the hyped created by the vast majority of social media and people. Unfortunately, when its price started to crumble, people slowly sold their resources and countries start prohibiting its circulation which significantly decreased its price on the market.

I feel bad for the people who JUST left their jobs and started cryptocurrency as their primary source of income. Before, it used to be investing but cryptocurrencies have become 'short-term gambling'. Do not misinterpret though, it may still be profitable given the right amount of time and resources but compared to 2013, it slowly lost its hype.


Consider trading as constructive gambling, wherein you can lower your chances by extensively studying the market and the current news to foresight trends, price fluctuations, and business opportunities. Unlike gambling, it mostly relies on luck as the factor of winning. Although there may be techniques in order to lower your chances of losing, trading and gambling are two worlds apart.

Been trying to apply for this campaign ever since!

I remember people around the forum making threads on what will be the main reason on the decrease on bitcoins price and there you have it. But rather than viewing this dilemma with negativity, consider also on taking it as an opportunity to acquire some while the prices are at stale. For the people who have significant amounts of bitcoin on their wallet, avoid selling everything in an instant.
Bitcoin has always been on the positive side of the market. With its creation nearly 10 years ago, its price constantly fluctuates depending on current events affecting government regulations or strict financials. Now with its price decreasing, I do think that its price may regain its value in the long-run as long as it maximizes and uses the blockchain technology.
