No offense, I don't want to say you are lying, but I kinda get why people in here don't believe your story, because they cant actually verify any of that. For me what's really bugging me is that, you are investing in Bitcoin, so you should be doing a lot with your laptop, but there you said that you are buying a Designer Flip-Flop, a Gucci, while using an 4GB Ram Laptop, I am not sure if that laptop would be able to be used for work nowadays, 4GB ram will run out only to watch a single youtube video, with windows 10/11 on it. I mean that's really weird how could you invest in bitcoin while using that outdated laptop, do you use your phone all the time, maybe you have like a flagship phone, or a tablet?

Very true, anyone who has worked for a company knows that in most company they don't really care about heir employee, all they care is profit. Everything that company do for their employee is so their employee can generate much more profit for the company. All those companies will not hesitate to just dump any employee if they aren't considered as profitable anymore. After all, the 'Human Capital' or 'Human Resources' is the easiest resources to be exploited.

To answer your question, in my opinion, first and foremost, find the right person/people, if you just pick random people who doesn't actually need bitcoin, you will be forced to sell them Bitcoin as highly profitable investment because that's the easiest way to make anyone interested, and that will give them the wrong idea and motivation to get into Bitcoin.

If you actually want to introduce people to Bitcoin, find someone who actually needs Bitcoin as currency, maybe someone who do international transaction, they will be interested if you tell them there is a new kind of currency that is not controlled by any entity, the transaction is seamless and the fee is quite low.

If global economy collapses actually happening I don't think Bitcoin alone can help, sure the ideal situation should be the Bitcoin price surging, but there are other possibility especially if the bad economy continue for a little bit longer and people decide to cash-out their Bitcoin to fulfill their needs. All that being said, at least until now and where I live, I don't see any major sign that the global economy collapses is happening anytime soon.

For me and for now I only allocate 10% --I fix the value in USD but thats around 10%-- of my monthly income to buy bitcoin, not much, but I can be consistent and I think that's more important, consistency is the key for DCA. But I have a plan to increase it to at least 15% next year. By the way, being consistent in doing DCA is quite challenging for me because I am a freelance designer, right now I got a contract so I still got a semi-stable income, so I can still consistent, it will be much harder if I got no contract and my income is based on the project I got monthly.

Wait, I think it's not that kind of data, it's not our personal data, not like phone number, home address, email address, .etc. I think it's the data that website and social media can get and sell it legally, like our preference of food, or entertainment, so it might be used for targeted ads, not like for hacking or such, or am I wrong?

I always thought that because I am very not important person, no one want to stole or collect my data, but I never that my data would be so worthless. I mean it should at least be $1, company can make at least ten times the money if they send me the right ads. lol.

Well if the person is already know and interested in crypto or Bitcoin but they never heard about this forum, then I do agree that inviting them could be beneficial for both the forum and themselves. But if you inviting random people, like you shill the forum to just anybody, even to people who don't really interested in crypto, and then you tell them about the 'benefit' they can get in this forum, then you will give them the wrong motivation, those kind of people either will only stay for a week or two, or even worse if they stay longer, they will tend to just spamming this forum.

I would say that just let them give up, got hacked multiple times in a row, especially if the hacking method done to them is just the same, meaning that they never learn. For anyone who want to invest in Bitcoin or crypto are required to learn since it's a fairly new thing. I mean, the first hack should make them realize that they did something wrong and then fix that, for example if they save their fund in a custodial wallet then it got hacked, then they should move to a non-custodial wallet, or even better a cold wallet. But if they didn't and they got hacked then the best advice is just to give up, forget about Bitcoin, and find other types investment.

I saw most of replies said that most of users lie so they could get some merit, it's not wrong, but there are other reasons too I think. Some user just need to fulfill their weekly activity quota, or signature post requirement, they lie so they can have some context while writing some reply, without lying they might don't have any topic/opinion so they can't reply to the thread. Also some people are just pathological liar, it's just their habit, they just lie without any agenda.

I do agree that avoiding failure is much easier than following required step to be successful, but if we only avoiding failure the best we can have is a mediocre life. It's like we are playing not to lose instead of playing to win. The step to be successful is harder because it's required more effort, and demand more strugle, not everyone can do that.

If that happened to me, I would also be confused how to fix that, I don't know if such feature is actually exist. I also have similar experience when I missed-click and I ended up changing my setting for Quick Reply, I accidentally remove the quick reply box from the bottom of my screen, I sort of panicked, and I need about 1 hour to fix the setting. I barely touch the setting other than Profile Information to change signature and avatar ever since.

Both strategy can never be compared as apple to apple, it's very different strategy with different purpose, that applicable for different people. Sure, you might get far more profit with Lump, but you need a do a deep flawless research and you need to enter the market at the very right moment, an off timing would have huge impact, especially with a very volatile market like Bitcoin.

If the question is whether or not Bitcoin is enough for every person in this planet, then the answer is of course yes, a simple supply and demand rules if everyone wants bitcoin the value will increase so even owning a few Satoshi is enough for monthly expenses, so it will always be enough. But if the question is whether everyone can have a bitcoin, for now probably not, there are some countries that Bans bitcoin, the people definitely shouldn't own Bitcoin, some area don't have any supporting market/exchange for Bitcoin so owning bitcoin is pointless, some area doesn't even have a reliable internet connection so may doesn't even have any idea what is Bitcoin.

I don't think that's how DCA work, or you may use the term DCA incorrectly. Dollar Cost Averaging, means that investor should invest the same amount of money consistently, regardless of the market condition. This work with high volatility assets Bitcoin included, this strategy usually used by retail investor, they usually spare some amount of their monthly income to buy Bitcoin. If you are not invest in Bitcoin on the same amount every month, or buy different amount of bitcoin based on market condition, then that's not a DCA.

I don't get what you mean by goal, is it the amount of your fund or is it the profit you made from your investment. I don't know if we have the same understanding about DCA, but as far as I know when you do DCA, you are supposed to invest the same amount of money into an asset regularly, regardless the market condition, I don't think there is any goal to be set in DCA.

Bitcoin can get you to be rich quickly if you are extremely very lucky. Only luck could do that nothing is certain, anyone who want to certainly get rich over night need to do either something criminal or violate some ethics while doing their business. But I kinda get how people think that Bitcoin is an easy and quick way to get rich, the volatility of the Bitcoin price, is insane especially with the bull market on 2017 and 2020 was crazy. Some people with very few understanding about crypto market and blockchain will claim and spread that bitcoin is an easy and quick way to get rich, and some naive and dumb will believe that, without doing any research and buy bitcoin hoping to turn their thousands into millions overnight.

this man is the worst, the Turkish citizen are desperate because their money is over-inflated and they try to survive this disaster moving to crypto. This man exploited those desperation and took advantage of it. I know some of us might judge the victim on how they can be so blind and can't see the fraud that those perpetrator has done, but trust me when people are desperate, they can trust even unbelievable opportunity.

Building wealth is always a long run, doesn't matter what industry you are in, not only crypto, in any business. The only way to be wealthy in a quicktime is by over-exploiting, and violating ethics. Many people could became rich, but only small amount of those rich people could become wealthy, a one-time luck could get you 50 Million, but keep those money and use it to build wealth is something that required a lot more than luck.

This is the advice that I would always gives to people who are asking when to buy Bitcoin, do your own research. Bitcoin is definitely good investment, but the market is not always in a good condition. By doing your own research you will be more confident in your investment, you won't easily give up and cash out your Bitcoin when the market turn red. If you buy bitcoin solely because of other people advice, when you loss some value on your portfolio, you tend to blame it to other people, you doubt your own investment, you validate your loss by selling your Bitcoin, while actually you have no problem if you are holding your Bitcoin a little bit longer until the market get better.

So, I suppose that those 75 ETH and 0.7 BTC are stored in an exchange wallet because SMS 2FA is involved. Storing that much of fund in exchange is already very risky, the hack wouldn't happened in the first place if those fund were stored in a hardware/cold wallet. Exchange are only supposed to be used for exchanging cryptos, not storing a huge amount of crypto in a long time.
