Thanks so much for the tip, right now, it's true, believe me, my uncle call me on phone and ask me what to do because he received some e-mail asking for BTC and shows the right password that he uses
He was desperate, but I remembered this thread and translated to him, so it was very useful information my friend
You helped a person from Brazil  

Olha, nós estamos lascados aqui no Brasil se esse dólar mantiver esse preço ou bater R$ 6,00, quem precisar comprar PC, Hardware etc vai precisar desembolsar mais grana ainda

As placas de vídeo tem subido sim e as promoções são em menor quantidade agora. Eu vendi minha 1080TI semana retrasada por um preço bom, e agora fui comprar outra placa porém não há nada que valha a pena, todas placas aumentaram bastante de valor e as top da Nvidia estão um absurdo de caro, e as únicas opções viáveis hoje são:
RX 570 - Baixo custo
1660 6GB - Custo benefício
RX5700 - Custo benefício para 4k

As placas acima disso são da Nvidia somente e já estamos falando de placas de 2.800 reais até 6.000 reais

Vou aguardar até a próxima geração para comprar algo decente, espera-se um salto bem grande da nvidia com o Ray Tracing mais forte e aprimorado e também o DLSS, e por parte da AMD espera-se algo que bata de frete no segmento High End

Para mineração parece que quase nada está sendo feito ou desenvolvido pelas duas empresas, nenhum foco, e nem mesmo o pessoal que ainda minera não estão otimistas

I was anxious to Olympic games in Tokyo and after the news that was cancelled, I lost my desire to gamble in some sports that I was looking for.
I'm totally afraid to lose money gambling because of this situation, I need to save money for my daily life, and this obviously kills any desire or motivation to gamble, can you imagina lost some money in this period?
In a few months we'll have soccer games in my country and this a good opportunity to restart gambling life, but a major event like Olympic, only next year...

Legal, eu sempre fui a favor do ensino online e sempre estou fazendo algum curso para me manter atualizado e para aprender novas habilidades
Uma dica excelente é para quem está fazendo faculdade, pois a maioria desses cursos conta como atividade extra curricular

Os da Fundação Bradesco eu já fiz alguns, são básicos mas bons, cumpre o prometido
Os da Udemy vai depender do professor e do curso mas tem MUITA coisa boa lá, não só gratuita, vira e mexe eu pego uns cursos lá de 24 reais que são MUITO bons, como de Fotografia, Design Digital, Python, é incrível que você pode ter aulas com um professor muito bom por um preço tão baixo

I know your feeling, and this kind of sentiment happens all the time in all different areas
Talking about BTC it's normal to be this way, in the past, like you said, it was the "wild west", but there were two options:

1 - Become unknown and be part only of the dark weeb, deep web and a few enthusiastics
2 - Become well known and be more developed, bigger, more "professional" and atracts more people to the enviroment

You know what happened, so this is natural, maybe with the first option you would be sad because no one would believe in BTC, so accept this fact and live well with BTC and community

I like to do some mind exercises from time to time and remember the past to see if I'm in the right path, and I agree with you
Before I know about BTC I just had a regular job and no idea what to do in future, and lost in my mind always trying to find a good way to gain some money online, working from home
Right now I'm in the middle of my path, I can gain money online with BTC, I have a plan to my future and I'm able to handle with money without need to trust in banks
I can say another side effect: now I'm able to see the world more clear, and how system is corrupted and why we need BTC to open our eyes and be owner of our own money
And I just love this forum, it's my first source of reliable information, and probably will be for long years, BTC and Bitcointalks walk together.

I'm not a guy that needs a lot of money to live, I like to be simple, and with the dollar price, 1 entire BTC would be enough to retire if prices reach 100kUSD, but this is only for my country and maybe some countries where the living cost is cheaper than US for example
I think for US citizens 100k USD is not a huge amount of money, barely buy a small house 

Guys, imagine if BTC reaches 100k USD today or in a few days. Now answer:
Would you be happy with the amount you have right now? It's enough for you to retire, or to be rich in your own terms?

It's a good way to think if you need more BTC or is it's enough

If BTC reaches 100k today, with the amount I have, I would be in a really good situation, but not enough to retire, so I'm working to buy more BTC in a mid term

Share with us, do you need more BTC?

Legal, você pode se desfazer de algo que está parado e ainda ajudar algumas pessoas
Minha sugestão é que venda aqui o que o pessoal quer, pois é fácil negociar, tem bastante gente de confiança aqui na aba brasileira
O que sobrar, faça um anúncio só ou dois, separando por categoria e faça um preço bacana pra vender tudo junto pois assim você poupa muito tempo e esforço
É difícil e ocupa muito tempo ficar vendendo vários itens "baratos", pois o pessoal fica perguntando bastante, tem que embalar tudo separado, ou mesmo ficar indo nos correios vários dias diferentes

Também sou um dos que nunca gostou da moeda, e não somos poucos, o fator de ela ser centralizada já afasta muita gente, agora devido a sua magnitude e o tamanho dessa moeda, mesmo na crise, duvido muito que aconteça um exit scam, até mesmo porque tem bastante empresas envolvidas com a Ripple, não usuários comuns ou traders, aliás que uma vez fiz uma pesquisa sobre a pior moeda para trade, e os usuários concordaram que a XRP era a mais difícil de negociar.

3 Billions USD is a huge amount, but not sure if enough to start a pump, rally, or any movement of price, maybe with some strategy...
But we should see some news and predictions now to the halving that is normal
But the question is: Why did they not bought at the bottom a few weeks ago?

I have a lot of places to not put all eggs in one basket
I have in my computer, in an old computer totally offline, in my smartphone, some small amount in exchange do to some trades and in a flash drive 

For me the best way to protect is to divide in a lot of places, this way is safer

Wow, this guy is one in one million  
I would do the same, for real, if I won this amount I would probably stop and enjoy the money for the rest of my life, this amount of money is enought to have a stable life if you invest correctly

To the guys thinking he will be back to gambling, there are controlled people who knows exactly the time to stop

Almost no one can stop you or any guy in a country to use BTC, you can send and receive transactions and if you are cautious you'll be good, but if government make BTC illegal, the country won't have any exchange to change to and from fiat and this is a problem, you'll have to trust in services from another countries and they can't share information with your contry
This is really difficulty, and if I have a country where BTC was banned, I would not have any BTC, it's not worth the risk to go to prison in my opinion

It's incredible how this guy have a wide vision of entire world, it's a masterpiece to read

You can consider a mid term, not totally decentralized, because Vitalik have a lot of power in ETH of course, and I don't blame him, it's his own coin and at least he try to do his best to improving ETH
And it's a good job, it's the biggest altcoin and have a real use, it works, so there's no problem to ETH

Eu li o tópico, precisa ter 30 posts sendo 5 pelo menos na seção Gambling, e quando não falam sobre board local, quer dizer que aceitam posts sim, as exclusões são: "Off-Topic, Games and Rounds and posts in this thread, no caso o tópico da própria campanha''

I hope not, I don't want to see China spreading their politics around the world, I hop that all countries around the world excludes China for anything, just exclude, a war is not necessary, but a total boycott, if they want to continue their nazi style of government, let them be, alone, with only their resources

We all have to know and put in our mind that we are losing lives, jobs, health, only because China hide for some time about their real conditions, I don't blame them because of the virus, but because of the lies they told us

I watch a lot of movie too, but talking about series, I've just finished La casa de Papel, it's AWESOME, I recommend to anyone, it's good to see series outside the US world
And I'm seeing Brooklyn Nine Nine, Supernatural and The Flash
It's hard to deal with time, there's a lot of great series and only a little time to watch

In my country is almost unbelievable  how this COVID-19 crisis is hitting us on a political side
People are fighting on social networks about politics, they are divided, the president is having difficult times having to deal with governors, deputys etc, everyone is messing with each other, and this is very sad, in a moment that we need to be together, humankind is fightning
Is there any hope for us?
Is your country having this problem too?
