I think we are living a financial crisis already due to governments printing money infinitely to maintain a system that doesn't work in a sustainable way. Bitcoin is more likely to be part of the solution than the problem itself, because during crisis times investments like bitcoin can help people to protect their money against corrosive inflation.
You pointed out mass adoption can lead to crisis, but I think we should keep in mind bitcoin supply is limited, while another products or technologies you mentioned weren't.

It must be really nice to have a friend participating of a group like this. 1 vs 1 and 5 vs 5 are great to watch.

The video above you posted was actually the first one about the subject I found on youtube. After watching it I kept digging for more and found the Battle of Nations championship event.

I believe nosebleeds and some injured arms, fists are a common thing.
The most agressive fight I have seen so far was this 1 vs 1. Look how one of the players use his shield against his opponent's head at the end: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlCQ2pBob5Q

For anyone interested in watching the games, they can be easily found on youtube through *Battle of Nations* search term. There are lots of videos.

Thank you.

I'm satisfied with the investment on the platform as well. The annual rates are quite competitive compared to another platforms which offer the same feature and Freebitco.in has the advantage of being around since many years ago, giving the site more legitimacy. Furthermore they pay interest daily, while another platforms usually pay it weekly. With so many pros I think there are a lot more investors on their site.

Probably most people don't know a championship where players team up wearing medieval armors and wielding real weapons like swords, axes and halberds to fight against another teams exist nowadays, but it does. The event exists since 2013 and already counts with the participation of 26 nations which send a team of your own to the competition. Each year the championship is executed in a different country and there is already an International Federation responsible for it (International Medieval Combat Federation)

There are different categories of fights: 1 vs 1, 5 vs 5, 21 vs 21 and I saw there is even 150 vs 150, which rely in different attributes like resistance, strength, strategy, leadership and so on.
The rules are simple: if the player goes down he is out of the game. The team which manages to knock down the whole opponent team is the winner.

Like in any sports it's possible to see some nations are superior to anothers, what would give the chance to the sport's fans to earn some money by predicting the correct results. Would you have interest in betting in a sport like this and promoting it, so it could become more popular until being included in gambling's platforms?

Some images:

That is pretty normal since daily interest is 0.0109589% and you also earn interest after the eighth decimal house of bitcoin. In some days those many decimal houses will accumulate 1 extra satoshi that you wouldn't earn in common days. Think about it like leap years' logic.

Can anyone answer this question: do referrals see any message when logging into their accounts showing the details of the shared satoshis amount made by their referees?

I fear the golden days of bankroll casino's investments are over. The last ones I saw potential for profit were crypto games and yolo dice. The first removed the feature and the second was closed. This kind of investment only worths if the casino has many active players and a lot of money on the table. If you invest in an average casino, probably your investment will stay in loss for a long time. I would dodge it.

The new trend for investors are the *crypto banks* which pay interest over bitcoin, altcoins and stablecoins.

Probably it would help. The man was lonely due to the pandemic and gone too far on his gambling adventure. After losing he had no choice besides telling his family about the issue, which promptly started giving support and helping him. The gambler did the right thing and was courageous to share his bad experience with his family, I must admit.
Now they just need to stay together and keep in touch more often to avoid loneliness. For some people it's not an issue to stay alone, quite the opposite, as there are people who feel much better alone than in groups, but for others loneliness is devastating and can lead to addictions like gambling.

I would like to, but I can't, because my investment in crypto currency isn't big enough to supply my daily needs' costs and potential activities I want to realize.
To quit their job people need to hold several bitcoins, even if it's going to pump 100%-1000% in price futurely. Although bitcoin is a life changer, most people won't be able to achieve the total financial freedom anyway, because it's not that easy to find someone holding 1 bitcoin or more.

I really doubt someone who wasn't used to stayed all the time at home since the beginning of the pandemic. Somehow the normal life continued and masks don't guarantee an infection isn't going to happen. Also, people need to work, otherwise they don't have money to buy basic goods to survive. During this whole process the person can be infected and infect others. It's a very nasty situation, but what choice do these people have?

A temporary equal distribution of money can only be achieved through a big reset and I believe no man has (or should have) power to make that happen. Anyway, even if an event like that happened, it wouldn't solve any financial equality issue, because people aren't equal and the differences would still exist as there are people who work more, save money, are smarter or more ambitious than others.
Some people will always have more money than everyone else, because doesn't matter how a society works, these people will always find a gap to accomplish their financial goals in a moral or immoral way. And bitcoin can't change this natural modus operandi of the human society.

I think everyone should worry about inflation, even those who save little, because futurely their savings will be wasted if they don't do it in the correct way, that is avoiding fiat at all costs.

Yes, if the goal is to keep the money's value on short run, gold is a good idea, because it's a pretty stable investment, so you can avoid fiat's depreciation and crypto's high volatility at same time. On the other hand, it's not possible to make much profit from this investment. On this aspect crypto is superior.

And nice to see people in Asia are educated to invest their money this way. Where I live the common sense is to just spend money until the last penny is over.

Elon Musk has some influence in bitcoin price, but it is limited as we can see. Maybe he thought he could *kill* bitcoin if he wishes and resurrect it later when he wants, but in fact he was just able to drop the market in part with his FUD, which was followed by a deeper correction due to speculators cashing out, following the trend, as it's normal always the price starts falling due to an exceptional event.

I agree with you. Moreover, I think on long run people will get tired of his tweets, jokes and with so many unstable opinions changing every few days he is probably going to lose influence in crypto market. As investors become more mature and experienced they need less influencers' opinions each new day.

In crypto universe there isn't any way to avoid risks like this or to bear lower risks. When investing in crypto currency you have to take all the risks and accept the consequences.
As this market is very volatile, you should never invest thinking in short run profits, because sometimes it will take months or years until you are able to cash-out profits. I see you started your investment very well, because you picked the right coin (bitcoin). You just need to be more patient and don't desperate yourself after a fall in price next time. Buy bitcoin again and keep holding.

Remember many people bought bitcoin for 19,000$ years ago and had to hold it for few years until they could sell it for 64,000$ this year, during the last ATH.
Conclusion: the profit isn't overnight like some people say on the internet.

From that list I'm not familiar with most investments, so I can't say how good each of them is. But from my experience I think bitcoin is the best way to protect your money against inflation nowadays and one reason for that it's because it is easily reachable for anyone and you can invest small amounts of money and still have decent chances to turn it into profit on long run, while protecting your money against inflation.
Another investments demand a lot more money if you want to turn it into a considerable profit or passive income, furthermore there is also much more bureaucracy to be fullfiled. Such inconveniences only worth if the person is going to invest a lot of money. Without any doubts for the average joe bitcoin is the best option.

I didn't know about it. I thought China wasn't taking the global deals to decrease co2 emissions seriously.
But don't you think even chinese citizens not caring about decentralization it's still a risk for the government to have a decentralized currency becoming more popular each new day? In government's point of view, investors' money could be going to the national industry instead of a global currency which they have no control over it.

Maybe most investors in China are just too practical to care for bitcoin's history and origins, so they don't know who Nakamoto is.

China wouldn't crack down bitcoin mining for this reason. Most probably the government saw bitcoin mining popularity increasing recently, so they became worried about a decentralized currency getting support among their citizens. Another reason could be also the one you mentioned on the first point: when the market crashes, it will harm chinese's investments in bitcoin.
At same time bitcoin mining has been always very popular in China, no? This announcement and many others made before don't make much sense when you put the reality side by side, but as you said below:

It seems there is some chance this announcement is just FUD, so it doesn't mean a strict regulation is going to be implemented, right?

Some time ago I was used to receive at least one of those emails a day, always the same threats, content and claims that they put a virus on the computer which triggered the webcam. The best to do is just to ignore such messages. If the victim gives the blackmailer some kind of attention, the situation may become much more problematic. Another option is to just contact the police, but the person has to expose himself.
Anyway, situations like this are a good warning to let people aware they should be more cautious regards their privacy and to not trust electronic devices to store intimate data or to exhibit themselves in front of these gadgets.

It's a good opportunity for mining companies move their businesses to another countries and decrease the total mining power China is responsible for. It will give a lot more stability for bitcoin if mining power isn't concentrated in one only country, especially a country ruled by communist dictators like China. It's also a chance for smaller countries which need to increase their income to attract these mining bitcoin operators to their territories.

Probably whales don't need help to dump the market, you are right, but smaller investors participate the dump anyway and regret about it later when they see bitcoin price suddenly skyrocketing. So they blame the rich investors for manipulating the market and taking advantage of everyone else. Actually somehow they are right, so the best antidote is to keep holding, since we can't predict exactly when bitcoin will turn the tables.

Yes, it's possible to go below 30,000$ soon. Last wednesday btc reached 32,000$, then the market recovered nicely until friday, when btc dropped to 34,000$ with a very shy recovery right after, which resulted in the recent fall to 31,000$ already this sunday. What I see is that bitcoin is slowly going down, what means it's hitting limit orders of different investors set for different prices in 30,000's range, but these investors aren't willing to put a lot of money in bitcoin yet. It looks like big money isn't going to come into btc until the digital currency reaches at least the 20,000's range again.
