In trading, you need two coins. They are called as a pair. Now, how can we do trading if BTC is the only coin that we want? Maybe if we say investing it is more possible. BTC isn't the only crypto that survived a worst time. So we shouldn't be afraid on picking the others too. We should thank the altcoins because they help BTC to grow evenly. Sometimes, it's not about the coins but it's about the person who trade.

So as per everyone suggests, it's important to learn first: learn everything, starting from the cryptos and how trading works. Having a stable emotion is also important. I think this is something can't be learned in the books. So it's tricky despite being looking to simple.

I think it depends on the level of knowledge and experience and the track record of the mentor about how good he has been doing himself in his trading career. It also depends on what kind of guidance and mentorship you are looking for. If you are okay with someone with not a lot of expertise but are doing okay themselves, you will probably need to pay less to them for mentorship. However, if you want someone who is an expert in the market and can also educate you about fundamental and technical analysis and all other important things, you will obviously need to pay a higher amount.

Having a mentor is obviously a good thing if you are serious about your trading and you have tried everything but aren't able to grasp the ideas by learning yourself. There are a lot of people who tend to understand things more easily if they are taught by a person in a one-on-one conversation instead of watching videos or reading different material.

Many of us are expecting for a bull run but no, we don't consider everything as a sign of bull run because there are negative events that are also happening. We can rather expect that the price will dip again for a while.

We all here invest to profit, so I don't think there are people who invest that are not necessarily for the bull run. That Jesus Christ you are saying is funny, lol. There is no way it is possible but maybe I will believe more if you say another world war can happen but I don't wish for that of course. The reason why people are so confident about the upcoming bull run is because of the halving. It's not only about the sign but history tells it all.

Maybe some airdrops are like that or they don't have a clear date if when will the rewards be sent. I think that is to give the users an excitement, and a way for them to gain more engagements, but I already saw some who put it ( clear date ). Some follows it while some doesn't. I think that is because some criterias are not yet met by the team. We should also understand them and not only about our selves.

There are also times where we are not qualified but we think they are a scam because we expect to get paid. It's okay if you are not intrigued on them anymore. You are a not a big loss in the airdrop community anyway. You better focus on much surer activities like trading and investing.

In trading, it's important to have different strategies and constantly improve the existing ones that we are using because the market is changing from time to time. Trading is not like gambling where we can experience a fun. There is a thrill but I think trading is like a career which goal is to give us a profit. If it doesn't work this way, we need to quit on it before we lose more money. I only like to look back on what you have said earlier about gambling.

If you see gambling as a way to make a profit, chances are that you will mostly lose huge amounts of money. Gambling is not like that, and it's not built only for us to lose because in exchange of the money that we spend, we get entertainment.

That's right, there should always be a balance in everything that you do, and when it comes to investments, you need to know that you are taking risks that you can balance and manage so that you don't get your money wasted just because you have taken risks that were more than enough which made your investment a failure. So, whether it's about a financial market or anything in general in life, you need to make sure that you are not overdoing things.

Most people take the 'the higher the risk, the higher the profits' phrase very seriously, and they actually take risks that they can't manage very well and eventually end up incurring big losses only because of their own mistakes and greediness. So, whenever you take risks, make sure it's not way too much.

I've never seen anyone discouraging a newbie from buying Bitcoin, they might have asked them to learn the risks before getting involved and I don't find anything bad in that because even if someone is planning to just buy and hold, they still need to at least understand how the market basically moves and that Bitcoin can also drop in price and it doesn't just keep going up because most people start panicking later on if they don't know this fact from the beginning.

However, others and I, always ask newbies to avoid getting into trading before they can learn everything they need to know because buying and holding Bitcoins doesn't fall under the category of trading, it can be called an investment and that might not require a lot of knowledge but trading isn't something that can be done so easily and one surely requires some knowledge before they venture into it.

There is obviously nothing wrong with living with your parents if they are living in the same city where you are working and you have good relations with them as long as they are not married or in a relationship and require privacy and a separate place to live. If we talk about Asians, I don't agree with the fact that they should live with their parents even after marriage because that creates problems very often.

I don't really think that is the basic reason why rental prices are increasing and the there is a lack of rental spaces for people in need of them, it's mainly because people travel from other places and start renting and living either for the reason that they have jobs there or want to pursue further education, etc.

The amount of tokens that these projects, especially meme coins, burn is insignificant to actually make a difference for the value of the token because they generally have extremely large supplies which makes it difficult for the creators to actually burn enough coins to reflect the effects on the price. So, investors of these projects shouldn't really have very high hopes if the creators say that they are going to burn tokens because those burns will not reduce a very large percentage of the total supply.

If we want to show an example of that, we can see LUNC (Luna Classic), the developers tried their best to burn as many coins as possible to revive the coin and make it gain at least some value back after the crash and everything, but look at the price, there is almost no change in the price after so many tokens being burned.

Choosing to win all the time is only possible if the decision of whether you can win or lose is in your hands, but if we talk about a financial market such as the cryptocurrency market, that wouldn't work because it's an unpredictable market and you can't know the outcome or the future of any asset that you might be trading and all you can do is check the charts, do your analysis, and make your prediction based on that and then the results will either be in your favor or against you.

When you lose a trade, you shouldn't think that you've lost the overall fight, because you can't win all the trades but you can stay profitable in the long run if you stay consistent and keep evaluating yourself and making improvements over time. No one is perfect, and there is always room for improvement.

May I know which aspects of Bitcoin are you referring to that resemble gambling? I don't see how gambling in any way resembles gambling at all, one can say that about trading because there is a possibility of making a trade and maybe losing some money from it if it's futures or options trading and the trader hasn't taken any preventive measures for the risks imposed, however, Bitcoin itself is just a cryptocurrency and has no similarities with gambling whatsoever.

So, those who don't have any knowledge about cryptocurrencies and the market, don't know how they move and what things one needs to notice, and when they buy high and sell low due to panic and lose money, shouldn't blame Bitcoin for it because it's not Bitcoin doing any harm but it's their lack of knowledge doing it.

I haven't followed the project closely but their website is active, and the generated coins keep increasing on the website which says that it's showing the data in real-time unless it's fake and manipulated only to lure in more users. All I know is that apps and projects like this and previously Step Up which was also a similar project couldn't really stay in the market for very long and people eventually start losing interest. The only thing that might keep it alive is that they give free tokens which wasn't the case with the Step Up app.

That being said, what OP has received on Telegram is in no way related to the original project but it's only a scam attempt that will steal his tokens if he connects his wallet to any website or accepts a transaction on his decentralized wallet app such as MetaMask, such things are common on Telegram.

Does your wallet address or the wallet itself shows your name or anything that can show your identity to someone? No, it doesn't, and that is the reason why Bitcoin is said to be pseudonymous which means that one can see your transactions or the balance but they can't know who is actually behind that wallet and that is enough privacy in my opinion. No one will ever know that a certain wallet is yours unless you have given your address to someone yourself and told them that it's your wallet address.

This is also one of the reasons why governments are mostly against Bitcoin because it promotes privacy and decentralization, and the authorities will barely be able to identify the owner of a certain wallet or a transaction unless they find a way to regulate all the transactions using some sort of KYC or something.

All stage is set for the huge match which is going to play on Saturday so both teams currently doing good job with India against Australia have some early trouble but now in this game they are back in bang which is good for this competition.

Today as Rohit hitting Rashid Khan and Mujeeb ur Rahman I am really surprised because I was no expecting poor bowling like this from these quality spinners. Now after 25 overs we have 205 runs with the lost of one wicket as Ishan Kishan gone after having century partnership with his captain Rohit Sharma with most chances he is going to have another opening stand on Saturday with Rohit Sharma Shubman Gill is still not full fit for the game after recovering from the Dengue.

Edit: Rohit Sharma got out by Rashid Khan in 26th over after securing his hundred on 84 balls.

I always suggest people not to keep extra funds on the platform, don't even keep them in a decentralized wallet if you use that wallet on a decentralized exchange because it takes no time for things to escalate if there is an attack or anything your address or wallet might get into the mix and that will obviously cost you a lot of money if you are keeping a substantial amount in your wallet. That's why, it's important to only use the assets that are being used for trading on a daily basis and keep others somewhere safe, maybe a hard wallet or something.

There have been several hacks and security breaches on exchange platforms in the past, and these things are happening more and more as we get into the future, the reason for that is obvious, hackers know that cryptocurrencies and trading are the hottest topics in the town right now, and if they get their hands into an exchange, they will surely get a good chunk from there.

Yes, but there is nothing wrong with improvising. One can always enter earlier and exit earlier as well or enter a bit late and also exit a bit late so that they can get their profit as well and don't miss the trade just because the price they were aiming for was missed for some reason.

That's true. A person who isn't emotionally stable shouldn't actually make any trades until they get a grip because decisions at such situations barely turn out to be good.

This is definitely one of the biggest mistakes a lot of new traders make. They don't use proper risk-management techniques and that causes them either losses or getting a part of their capital stuck in a single trade.

Yep, people often make the mistake of entering the market without ample knowledge which makes their potential go in vain, no matter how much passion one has for trading if they aren't focused on gaining knowledge, they are compromising with their trading career which isn't good.

Those who are replying without reading the whole thread should have a look at this post by FatFork to understand that OP is not as innocent as he may sound and we are basically wasting our time making suggestions to him on how he can earn Merits and grow an account that is basically ban evading since one of his alt accounts has been banned previously and he probably didn't appeal for that since he didn't want to reveal his other accounts and he instead decided to continue using this account thinking that people might not come to know.

@OP, it seems like you have got more serious things to think about before Merits. So it's basically useless for you to learn how you can earn Merits to grow the rank of your account when it will eventually get banned any time soon.

The fact that altcoins don't go up once they get a decline doesn't really apply to all altcoins because there are altcoins that are good and they might get declines and then recover their price which provides a window for a day trader to make some profit if they buy at the right time when the price is down. However, this doesn't mean that all altcoins are safe, there can be altcoins where if you buy at the peak and it crashes, you might have to wait for a very long time before it goes back to that point again.

When you are trading in Bitcoin, you at least know that it won't crash severely all of a sudden, and you would also not worry if it faces a decline because history is the proof that Bitcoin has always recovered its price after some time of a decline which is why it's everyone's favorite in the market.

It totally depends on the situation and the condition of your friend at the moment. If he is doing okay, has a job that covers almost all the expenses he has, and can do a bit of saving every month, I would obviously suggest that he waits until he has the complete budget to start his dream business because he probably has been planning it for quite some time and when you do something that you are interested in, you put in all your efforts to make it successful.

However, if he is having difficulties with his income and wants to do something of his own as soon as possible, maybe he should go with option one where he would start a smaller business until he earns enough to start his dream business but that would obviously take more time, and it also depends if he has enough confidence that he can actually do something that will earn him money and won't waste his savings on it without getting anything.

There is something else that I would like to let you know about before I get into the topic, you are one of the laziest people that I've ever seen in my life, I mean you started a thread but didn't even bother to write something in the body, you could at least ask your question in details, you should have added your own points and then asked the community to come and discuss it. Only a very lazy person can think of creating a thread or topic this way.

Getting back to the topic, the future of cryptocurrencies is basically a mystery that is unknown to anyone. However, the way we see Bitcoin gaining popularity and fame and getting adopted all around the globe, it seems like the future will be pretty good for cryptocurrencies as they manage to get a lot of hype, and people are slowly falling in love with them.
