What I like more about Bitcointalk is that it opens your knowledge and the way you will understand things. Before I joined this forum, I believe almost everything that I see online like social media, YouTube contents and Google searches, but when I joined and become a member on this forum, I saw a lot of mistakes online. If you make mistake on this forum, you will be corrected to edit the OP or your post which is better.
I do not have much activities on social media, especially Meta like Facebook and Instagram. I only make use of Twitter which people on this forum will also be using. This forum is a place of knowledge.

Scrolling up and down on this forum is smooth. If your phone is having 120 Hz refresh rate and you set it, you will really enjoy it better. I have no issue while scrolling up or down. Everything is working normal.
But there are sometimes but which a not common when the forum pages wouldn't have loaded well or take some seconds than usual and longer, this can cause issue. If I am experiencing something like that, I change to VPN which makes the forum load well and faster. Later I can change back to IP address if I want.

To be honest, I don't see it that way. I put the same effort into protecting my private key/mnemonic code as I do for my physical gold. I think you have to, because both mean immense financial damage in the event of unauthorized access.
Gold will give me stress. Or I can save it in places that will charge me money as service fee. Bitcoin is the opposite. I can easily create 2 of 3 multisig wallet, or go for a hardware wallet that is airgapped or airgapped wallet like Electrum cold storage and use passphrase with it. This is far more easier than protecting gold. I can have bitcoin without going out of my home and no one will know I have it. The mnemonic code/private key is probably even more difficult to protect,
No If I have huge amount of bitcoin, I will get a airgapped hardware wallet, get a software wallet and create 2 of 2 multisig. This is far easier than protecting gold. Or get 2 airgapped hardware wallets and 1 software wallet to create 2 of 3 multisig.

Guys I dont know what to do, should I invest in Gold or Bitcoin. Gold is more stable I know. But the bitcoin development is crazyy, imagine if you have bought it before 20 years... Bitcoin is having high market cap now. Do not expect the price to continue to rise at it increased in the past. But it can still be an asset that its value can be increasing just like gold. I prefer bitcoin because I am more secure with it because I can protect my coins than something physical like gold.

I like how bitcoin is less volatile than altcoins. To be honest, Bitcoin enjoys first mover advantage. Because we have many altcoins available in the market which are technically more advanced than Bitcoin. But no altcoins was able to move out Bitcoin from the first position.
What kind of advancement? Because many of the altcoins are using PoS or because many of them were ICOs? Or because many of them are centralized? Do not compare those coins to bitcoin. They are not comparable.

How will someone have that amount of money and decided to gamble with it to make profit. It shows that the man is greedy and thinks he can use gamble to double his money. Unfortunately for him he ended up losing all his life saving.
What I think is that he may want to get it to $1 million. Just the way I think about it. I do not like to see this kind of things. $400000 could be his life savings. He could have used it to open a big business in a way the business itself will increase in worth and also be generating money. Gambling should not even the last resort for someone like this person in money making. He is rich but gambled with that huge sum of money and lost it all. Very bad.

Something that seems to me very well if you do it in an honest way and put effort and commitment, because the money you earn in an honest way is a measure of the success you have, of the value you bring to society.
But some people contribute little or nothing but get to full member and join campaign. People that are very useful on this forum have most of their posts on the first page of discussion threads while just few on the second and third page of discussion threads while very little on more than third page of discussion threads. But you are not wrong because I noticed that these good posters are on one of the best campaigns on this forum and they have better reputation and thick skin.

Legalization is welcomed but I'm clear in my mind that illegal gambling will survive for at least nearest decade when this entails such country as Thailand. Underground betting over there ( plus some strange gaming activities like those which are bound with the funerary rites at some locations) has a long history of development that can not be overcome by epy single-stage intervention from government body.
At least people will start seeing many people that want to have a gambling platform in the country which can be easily accessible for the citizens to access. It is possible that some people may want to evade tax and some gambling platforms may also want to evade tax but if gambling is legalized in the country, government will generate more tax. Having little is better than having nothing. But despite that there could be few existing illegal gambling platforms in the country, it is not small amount of money that their government will generate from gambling taxes.

Why is the world so sure that Bitcoin and blockchain is foolproof. What if there's a critical flaw that everyone has overlooked or not noticed and the whole system crashes down? Is it really impossible? Is Bitcoin a perfect machine or system?
What will crash down bitcoin will be able to generate enough hashrates that can reverse many transactions back in a 51% attack. But with the hashrates bitcoin is having, that is not possible. Anyone that wants to do that will only waste time and resources and yet still fail. That is where I see vulnerability can come but which is very hard to do.

Large regulated exchanges & services are paranoid beyond belief when it comes to making changes to their systems. So, no matter how much we complain or pester them it's probably still going to be another 30 months before they area all onboard.
It may take more months or years. People prefer to use bech32 because the fee for p2pkh is much. Segwit reduces the fee to like 42% or more. For the sites that was not able to adopt p2wpkh fast, p2wpkh-p2sh was created which was the reason it was also common that time. Wallet developers know that p2pkh has too much fee and were fast to to support p2wpkh and make it their default. Some wallets like Electrum even removed p2pkh. That makes p2wpkh very common. Segwit still has the lowest fee till now except your transaction has more inputs. There are even some wallets like Electrum that has not support p2tr but they will likely support it soon. The fee will not make people really talk about it as an issue because people still like p2wpkh.

If you are a customer of any of these businesses, go open a support ticket and complain that you can't send money to your wallet. These businesses don't really care about Bitcoin benefiting from Taproot's slight privacy and efficiency gains, but they do care if it increases the burden on their support system.
I thought those like Ordinals are benefiting from taproot more. Is that not correct? There are many people that are still using bech32 addresses because it has the lowest fee for transaction except when the inputs are more. If the inputs and outputs are the same and if the outputs are many than the inputs, bech32 addresses have lower fee. All wallets that I have seen that is having bech32m are having bech32 as their default derivation path.

About the fee in legacy using the mempool.space recommended fee uses vbyte so you might need to double your fee because segwit(vbyte) size is smaller than in the legacy wallet. For better fee estimation you can try to calculate them manually you can use this tool https://jlopp.github.io/bitcoin-transaction-size-calculator/ you can find the result at the bottom of the calculate button. or use the tool mentions above from coinb.in Assuming the fee rate for high priority on the mempool is 10 sat/vbyte and you used 10 sat/byte on Atomic wallet, the transaction will be confirmed fast if the mempool do not increase in high fee estimation. Sat/byte is equals to sat/vbyte if it is legacy address to legacy address. Also sending from legacy address to segwit will still make 10 sat/byte to confirm fast as well. But he should stop using Atonic wallet. A much better option is if you have a backup seed of the Atomic wallet that can be used to import your wallet into the Electrum wallet because it has a better estimation fee than the Atomic wallet. If you decide to move to Electrum don't forget to put the right derivation path while importing your Atomic wallet to Electrum the right derivation path is listed from this link below. - https://support.atomicwallet.io/article/146-list-of-derivation-pathsNo need to import the seed phrase to make a transaction just as I explained above. He should just assume the sat/byte is the same as sat/vbyte for legacy addresses. If he wants to finally move to a better wallet, Atomic wallet is a close source wallet, he should just send all his coins to an address generated on an open source wallet that is recommended like Bluewallet or Electrum.

Fees are calculated in sat/byte which is actually a measurement of how much block space your transaction would occupy.
After the introduction of segwit and P2SH, sat/byte is no more used for estimations. What that is used now is sat/vbyte. Virtual byte will make the transaction smaller and have lower fee than sat/byte unless you are sending and receiving with bitcoin address that begins with 1. Atomic wallet creates only legacy addresses and that's why it uses sat/b as the measurement unit for fee rates.
The wallet is close source. It has the history of hack that over millions of dollars were lost. The wallet is still using bitcoin address that begins with 1. Why are people still using this wallet outdated wallet.

I'm a newbie in Bitcoin and I'm passionate to develop myself professionally in the system and to acquire a reasonable Bitcoin that I can rely on for enconomic development but the major challenge I have now is how to go about it and the possibility of breakthrough in the system, so on that note, I sincerely wish to learn to enable me get the prerequisite knowledge for the possibility of acquiring Bitcoin with little or no capital.
You can earn some bitcoin through signature campaigns on this forum but do not put it for head too much and always try to post quality posts and contribute to good discussions on this forum. I have tried many things but the only bitcoin that I earned is from this forum while others are through the fiat and not bitcoin. There are other ways to earn bitcoin like through mining but you have little or not capital which can not make you go for it. You need to have money to earn more money but this forum makes me to earn some bitcoin with just my device and no money needed for anything. If you have some money, you can invest in bitcoin. But you have to wait for the bear market before investing.

It would be better if you buy Cooper Member to be able to display a good ANN, on the forum there are many services for ANN design here maybe you can need it because it will look attractive than just text.
He only needs 1 merits and 30 activities before he can get to junior member. If he is not ready to wait, he can get himself a copper membership. Partnering as in part of a team or as an affiliate? Will you be able to bring up the casino representative in case of any other complaints?
I will like him to answer this question. @SupItsJTTV, please answer this question. Having the official representative on this forum is better so that complaints can easily be handled.

From what he said, I agree that most poor people believe that money or wealth is inherited by luck, while the rich always know that they have to invest in order to make more money. A lot of the rich men in the world today didn't make their wealth from gambling winnings; it was through hard work, smart work, discipline, and investment that they managed to create wealth for themselves. They never became rich because they were gamblers. Only a few people were able to use the money they won from gambling to entertain themselves.
Rich people can believe in investment but they should know that luck and opportunity helped them there and make them become rich. There are people that have talent like them but not rich. Lack of exposure is the reason some people are not just rich. Some are not rich because of the environment they are. When they become rich, their thinking of luck and opportunity can reduce but they can not be rich if they do not have luck to be rich in life. There are lots of people that are not rich and not believe also in gambling. Some people are not rich but still satisfied and hoping for a better tomorrow. Poor people can gamble and be losing and know that gambling can not do them any good. There are many people that invested in their children and get them good education believing that their children can become rich in life and make them leave the condition they are.

I like bitcoin because you can hold it and have complete control over your coins, unlike stocks that you do not have complete control over.
Stocks are many. There are some that are very volatile like gambling just like altcoins are very volatile. Bitcoin is less volatile. So if you want to compare both, you can mention the stock that you want to compare bitcoin with. But as for me in general, I will prefer bitcoin.

Among 195 countries in the world, over 180 countries support bitcoin and altcoins in one way or the other that people can buy and sell them. If cryptocurrencies are still existing, all centralized exchanges can not be banned.
There are also other ways to trade cryptocurrencies if centralized exchanges are banned. There are decentralized exchanges and there are trading between people without exchanges involved.

Nigeria is taxing gambling winnings: Taxes on winnings from betting in Nigeria?
All winnings from bets placed in Nigeria are subject to tax. So, if you win big, make sure to set aside some money for taxes.
Any income earned from gambling activities is subject to general income tax laws. This means that if you are considered a professional gambler, your winnings may be subject to income tax. Nigeria was better before when there was less taxes. This is another way to increase the tax and not that the Nigerian government are just introducing taxes in gambling. If you win big, the Nigerian government will know and you must pay tax.
