I'm a person who would like to do some work for Bitcoin, so I monitor freelancing sites occasionally, and at this time I feel like the freelance market in Bitcoin is nearly dead. The Services board is 99% listings of services rather than people who are looking to buy some; XBTfreelancer is empty or has 1-2 projects most of the time; cryptogrind has mostly just ridiculously underpaid projects or again service announcements (shouldn't they be banned there?), and there's also not much available projects overall; workingforbitcoins has very little traffic, just a few projects per month.
It was theorized that Bitcoin will help alleviate poverty by allowing people to work online without any restrictions, but on practice this just isn't happening. In your opinion, what is the reason for this?
Sad but true I used to do a lot of gigs and hire people for a gig in Fiverr, they used to accept Bitcoin for all their gigs but now they disable Bitcoin, and they still have no announcement if they are still going to accept Bitcoin again, Fiverr was a good opportunity for freelancers who wants to work for Bitcoin but after it was disabled, we have not seen a good and popular marketplace that hires people to do task for Bitcoin. There were a lot of ICO's that plans to create one but they all failed miserably in the market, people are still hoping, Bitcoin could be a life saver for those who want to work from home doing a task. |

Mak Zuckerberg is very quick to point out what China is trying to do so he can further advance the cause of his Libra Coin, he has a point, now it becomes China against the US in blockchain development, some lawmakers will see this but they will also see the bad side of it, because it happens that Mak Zuckerberg is behind this project, so they will now weigh, between Mak Zuckerberg's plan that they can regulate or China's plan that they cannot control.

We are all aware that the bitcoin is the last hope when the other altcoins including Ethereum are struggling to survive and even bitcoin has not had any massive pump as it's fighting hard to stay on $8,000 despite numerous fluctuations but will it help bitcoin if we just move our funds to bitcoin which we have invested into altcoin as it will increase the demand of bitcoin if everyone can do that as this will literally do what the whales have been doing to increase the price when they want by creating the demand.
Those who invested in altcoins are those who believe that you should not put all your eggs in one basket and you should widen your portfolio to good coin, they will have a second thought of doing that, what we need is new people coming in, old people who used to be investors and return investing again, not transferring our other assets to one asset. We can only grow if we cover more territories and new people coming in the market and new country and new companies accepting Cryptocurrency. |

Zuckerberg: if legislators’ trust is not gained, we will exit from project Libra
CEO of Facebook in a hearing in front of the Congress said that Facebook is no longer in the position of project controller and the operation of Libra is independent.
What do you think about this?
So you really believe that he is going to do that? I've seen his speech and I don't see his intention of doing that, what I've seen is, he is trying very hard to convince legislators that he will do what he is being asked and he is trying to present Libra Coin as something that can Fix ‘Failing’ Financial System. He is so good at doing this but I'm pretty sure he will do everything for them to agree on Libra coin to launch, he is good at lobbying. |

Earlier today, Facebook CEO -Mark Zuckerberg had another face off section with the US senate over the Libra project https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-50152062. Quite tough indeed. I am quite sure the young dude had several rehearsals brainstorming what might possibly come out from the congress woman, Lol. But he did well after all. Arguments in every of my groups today as some said it is absolutely a political propaganda and some relating it backward as facebook played a huge part negatively in the past US presidential election. That you can as well get more information from #TheGreatHack by Netflix. The senate is of the emphasis that Libra would stage to harbour financial crime and unscrupulous behavior from the users. Follow link to see full gist. https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-50152062I am forced to think of blockchain technology as a solution to this mess faced by the young billionaire. VID as an example is a video centric social media that uses blockchain technology and protocol to avoid such issues as Mark's. Using ZERO KNOWLEDGE PROTOCOL is one thing that makes it unique. See more info https://vid.camera. I am yet to agree that US is trying to tame Mark Zuckerberg. I think it is normal trying to defend in the interest of the world. Libra is an attempt at total control of the population using Facebook. FB should be broken up, not expanded. Far better, to not even allow it. Crypto currency should be open and "owned" by no one. Not Google, not Apple, not Facebook. A money system should be available to all, and without any governing body. But unfortunately one of the coins that are very much centralized like Ripple is very much on top of their games, I hope the congress that investigates Libra Coin is very much well informed about Cryptocurrency and blockchain, Libra Coin is a big opposite on what we want to accomplish here in the community, this is the reason we aren't supportive of this cause. It's better that they invite people who are experts on blockchain and prominent people here, so they will see the two sides of the coin, or a different perspective on what libra Coin is trying to accomplish. |

Discipline in gambling takes time, it is not something you impose to yourself and overnight you can discipline yourself, I have seen people who are very discipline in some areas of their lives but failed miserably when it comes to gambling.
You can cultivate discipline when you are gambling with an experienced and highly discipline gambler, from there you can see how he managed to control his emotion and the ability to stop when the time to stop comes, it's not recommended to gamble alone, you will end up losing your control.

Perfume has something to do with your emotion whenever you are gambling, it's my superstitions that I should put a strong scent whenever I gamble, sometimes it's right sometimes it's not, but when the average of winning to losing is much higher you can attributed it to what you are doing that brings you luck and so in my case it's putting perfume, and besides I feel good with my perfume even if I lost a roll.

This is what trainers do, they try to get one who can imitate and replicate their fighter's opponents, great boxers must know how to adjust his fighting style to have an advantage over his opponents, but of course, these are not Ruiz, the punching power varies from boxers to boxers, Joshua is lucky if he can have one sparring partner who can be better than Ruiz and he makes a full adjustment right away, but while Joshua is preparing, Ruiz is also preparing and adjusting to Joshua fighting style by sparring boxers with similar built. |

Satoshi wrote: "If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry" from this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=532.msg6269#msg6269I reflected upon this statements so many times since i discovered Bitcoin long time ago. Today I had an idea: I don't have time sounds to me like someone who knows that he doesn't have time. I mean someone who knew his life was going to end soon. Maybe he had cancer and he was going towards a sure death in few time. I thought about this for the first time today and I have such a realistic feeling about this..I can't explain . I don't think that was the context of those words, he clearly says that he will be on another interest or something like that, it was not that he is going to die, there's nowhere in his words that makes us aware that he is suffering from something, wherever he is it's his own decision to go away but I will never believe that because he is going to die from illness, but everything is possible, who knows. |

What If,... you're currently playing and suddenly you run out of funds and on the next draw you missed the game which you are about to win the Jackpot. What would you feel and do about it? Will you stop playing because of that miserable scenario? And if that happens in real life, you won the Jackpot by your lucky numbers and suddenly you misplaced the ticket, that's a BIG LOSS already don't you think? -Let's see how'd you feel down about missing a BIG THING in just a blink of an eye.
Please Support: (Thank You!) Visit: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5193860.msg52851257#msg52851257 These are two very unfortunate events, I experienced the first one, I'm only short of one roll to win the jackpot I'm playing the martingale, this is the worst experienced that can happen to you when playing martingale,. And on second scenario, I think I will go carry thinking about that, it's just killing the goose that lays a golden egg and it will take a long time to forget that. |

Over 850 millions of people use alipay as means of payment mostly in china and i heard lots about wepay as well, i come to think of it that what if bitcoin was been used in their places instead? if alipay and wepay can get to where they are today then altcoins have all the chances of survival as well. Wepay and Alipay are just online payment solution, crypto can do better.
Real use cases plus real life working products, let these two be your main focus when picking altcoins to invest your money on, do not listen to those saying 'dump altcoins for bitcoin' when you are holding solid altcoins
I also believe that there are some altcoins worth to be adopted, and worth to be used together with Bitcoin, people want options in all the things they do and we have a very huge market to cover, but not thousands of coins in the market, I figure that 50 to 100 coins are just enough in fact already too many, and this is the reason are competing with speed scalability and fees, because payment processor will soon be replaced by Cryptocurrency. |

I'm disappointed on Electroneum, it creates a big hype when it was launched, there's even a lot of videos on Youtube shilling this coin that it will reach $5 in just a year, but never happen, this coin is now in limbo, I don't know if it still deserves to be included in your portfolio, but since it is on top exchanges it still has the chance, we just hope those exchanges will not delist Electroneum.

Thanks GSpgh, glad to know it's OK to spend unconfirmed coins and that the 2nd transaction will eventually be confirmed. Maybe it's for the best - the price is rising slightly while I am waiting  If it takes some time to confirm you can ask for help to people who can accelerate your transaction, I have a friend in telegram that I ask for acceleration for free, go to the service section to find one. the longest I've had was 24 hours. |

There seems to be a trend not yet recognized by many experts and that is the withering interest of the people on Bitcoin, especially if we compare today with the days of 2017 and early months of 2018. Of course, we could not expect that people will always like, search and talk about Bitcoin for years. There will always be a plateau and a possible downtrend, sometime somehow.
Is this something we have to accept or should we do something about this?
You've already said it There will always be a plateau and a possible downtrend, this applies to everything, but that does not mean the interest is over, the interest is still there, some areas will have a high interest in Cryptocurrency and some will have a downtrend, but in general there will always interest in Bitcoin because people have staked a lot of things in Cryptocurrency and many developers have transferred their skills here. |

Cigar addiction is worse because it leads you to a lot of debilitating diseases, you can cure gambling addiction but on cigar addiction, there will always residue that's going to be left, in your body, a ten-year gambling addict has a chance to survive than a ten-year smoker.
cigar addiction is killing you slowly mentally and physically, on gambling, you will become poor but you still have good health.

I will not mention a name I do have a friend who's been using a password manager and ask him if it is safe he told me it's 100% safe, because in case the hacker hacked the master password and try to login using the master password, the password manager will need an approval from the email to approve the login from a different IP, password manager is not yet very popular but they are proven to be strong protection.

If there is any new Bounties, Airdrops, any any other way to get coins & tokens just let me know and I will be really thankful to you.
If you are new to Cryptocurrency, you should not look for airdrop or bounty to join, but rather you should fully understand how Cryptocurrency works and how to protect yourself from hacking and securing your wallet and private keys, you should study how everything began, and not look for new bounty or airdrops right away, there is no easy path and free money here now, you'll find this out later as go you along. |
