At the end of the day it's still their wealth which they acquired and can choose to spend whichever way they want. Acts of altruism or humanitarian services can be done willingly and should not be excessively scrutinized.

In this example, at the end of the 19 year period they should have earned a extra $1,140,000 from interests, totalling $2.1 billion networth but they've given away $950 million away already of their money (cause yeah, the interest is also their money). This is now almost 50% of their entire networth giving to charity helping millions of lives around the world.

They did!!

Even if it's called a wallet as a marketing ploy to make it more attractive to users, it should still be avoided. Coinbase wallet is one which readily comes to mind, it's meant to be self custodian with no third party interference, but it's still pretty much as centralized as the exchange wallet is.

Why would you intentionally want to be sad?

Also, do not beat yourself up about decisions you made when you were less informed. It's a normal cycle for investors to overlook some investment opportunities until they get enough information on it to understand how productive it can be. I also wasted a couple of years and capital on altcoins which should have been redirected to Bitcoin, but those decisions the led me to be able to weather bear markets today and not panic when the chart goes red or get overly excited when it goes green.

This is how the market has always been. Bitcoin influences majority of altcoins, but they are very easily manipulated, so we get some outliers which do not follow the market direction that Bitcoin takes. Bitcoin dominance is not waning, neither does it matter much.

None. They are too much of a wild gamble for me.

I'll go one up and say never connect your wallet to any third party. The essence of using a non custodian wallet is preventing other parties from accessing your wallet.
Airdrops are majorly scams which steal your funds or privacy and gives you worthless tokens in return, avoiding them means prioritizing your security. If you must use them, create a new wallet which you do not use for any personal transaction.

Since the platform is still under development, you can include a link to it in the Altcoin discussion section. From this you can get advice and suggestions on what direction you should take.

For the bounty, use the Bounty (Altcoin) childboard to post that. As suggested above, getting a reputable manager to undertake that task will help give your project a professional touch.

It's not "your" funds if they are being held by a third party. But as I mentioned finding a balance that works is the best option. Leaving them on an exchange up until it will not be too expensive to transfer out, this is my opinion is when the cost of the transaction is less than 10% of the transaction amount. This could means for a period of 2-6 months you will be totally deoendent on the third party.

The downside of this is users get complacent and decide to just leave the funds on the exchange, pointing out that it has been safe during the period they left them there.

The core concept of this post is correct. Bitcoin is divisible to the eight decimal, which is lower than a dollar, making it possible to invest with what you have at a point in time and not move to altcoins with zero value.

But investing $10 is not very practical with the fees attached to it, except you choose to store them on a exchange which is not recommended. New investors would try to achieve a balance between investing with what you have, maximizing profits and hang optimal security.

Mods are replaced rather slowly around here even when a current mod becomes inactive and there is high evidence that the board is getting overrun with spam. Things move much slower in the local board section, maybe owing to the language barrier for the admin.

I'll like to see each local board moderated just as we have with almost every regular board. If there's enough activity to warrant granting  the users their own community, there should be some sort of moderation in place to regulate that community.

Stop thinking too hard about posts to make. Newbies have the false belief that starting threads presents a higher chance of getting merits which leads to a high number of posts like this; advising others on what to do on the forum.

Focus on learning and not teaching.

In person trading is lowest on the least of options for trading Bitcoin. It compromises the safety of your assets and also your personal security and puts you at risk even if it was done through a decentralised platform. There are so many safer options that one can use.

People should treat society to be as insecure as it is and always be on the lookout to protect your privacy and assets.

The most important step in making quality posts in any board is to have an interest in the topic of the board. Do not join gambling related campaigns if you do not have an interest in the gambling board, same goes for any other board, always align with posts that comes naturally to you.

There is no sticky for the gambling discussion board, but here's a detailed description of what to do;
"Discussion of sports games and other gambling-related topics which are separate from games and services themselves."

Combine this and general posting etiquette and you'll be good.

It's your capital and you can choose to invest any amount you are not actively using.
Some people view TV differently and source for capital to invest in Bitcoin from other channels.

It's good to include the currency you are referring to when making posts.

You registered on the forum for more than a year now, but only though to ask now about a 100BTC stash that has been lost for over11 years? I call bullshit on your story.

If it is true that you bought that amount of Bitcoin and had them on a centralized exchange they are all but lost now cause the exchange should have closed down already and the owners will have moved whatever amount o bitcoin was stored in them.

If you're getting random contacts on telegram about trading signals, you are doing something very wrong with your privacy and security. Exposing yourself to scammers increases the chances of being scammed. Do not join random groups and set your privacy settings to restrict randome users from messaging you.

99% of the trading signals floated around on telegram are from scam channels. I will advice you to avoid them.

Something better does not make Bitcoin inferior.

Bitcoin will always function as it was designed to.

All of the options will be an upgrade to the current system which makes it very easy to slip up and send more merits than you planned to. Although from the rate of merit sent, this is not a issue frequently encountered. I for one have never mistakenly sent out the wrong number of merits, but I guess merit sources will be most affected cause they send merits very frequently and multiple times within a short period.

Option C is the best approach in my opinion.

Downside to this is that it gives off the interpretation that one can only send between 1-50 neritsvinna single transaction and not the reality that that's the maximum for a month to a user.

After sending out 10 merits for example at a time and coming back to merit that user on a later date, you have a maximum of 40 to send, but the place holder will still display 1-50.

New members are unable the o properly vet a crypto project and will most times still fall victim even if they do proper research on it.
My advice to them will be to stick to Bitcoin, invest sparingly and increase your investments as I out gain more knowledge. At this point they can choose to expand to altcoins or not.
