641  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: No KYC Crypto Trading Platforms on: February 04, 2024, 09:52:52 PM
I don't understand why some people or investors in crypto currency are afraid of KYC. Maybe they have their reasons, but the thing is, KYC is there to serve as protection for both the platform and the customer. KYC will act as a verification for the customer for the platform to know who you are, if you are a legitimate person, and also to prevent someone from doing suspicious transactions on the platform as they can take advantage of the anonymous feature of crypto currency.
KYC can benefit those customers in the sense that their transaction will certainly go to the right destination, or, for instance, when they do a withdrawal, to prevent the wrong address. I don't mind doing KYC as long as I know that the platform I'm using is safe. Well we respect others wanting for no KYC platforms but I hope you know the risk of it.
642  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I want to present the previous history of Bitcoin to the general public through. on: February 04, 2024, 09:03:59 PM
Well, the usage of social media now a days will be powerful or useful, you can reach out a lot of people in social medias as more people are spending their time in their, and I would say it will be easy for you to attract people to listen to you or be interested in your topics if they see the word "money" or "profit" lets be real that's how can you attract them the idea of money profit, I'm sure many will take interest in it and its normal as bitcoin or crypto currency really can help them to have them but of course be a responsible person that spread bitcoin or crypto currency awareness or knowledge, you should indicate the so's and don't and a warning about how it xan be risky and dangerous so they will have am idea that it will not be an easy money, it will takes a commitment.
643  Economy / Economics / Re: Another war in the Middle East could be dire for the economy on: February 04, 2024, 02:54:06 PM
It will for sure affect not just the two countries that are in the war but also other countries or neighbouring countries and also the world. I'm sure someone here discussed some of the effects of war in the world, and of course it could be bad and the effect will not be good as one of the main impacts of it is on the economies of both countries and their citizens. They are the ones that will be greatly affected; many lives can be taken and many businesses can go bankrupt. In this chaos, no matter what they do, there will be no winner; they are both losers as they lost something. Sad reality: no matter what talk or discussion, the conflict could never end. This is not the only war that could possibly happen. And if this continues all over the world, then I don't know what will happen in this world.
644  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The "loaded slots" scam on: February 04, 2024, 02:29:45 PM
Well, yeah, a physical slot machine can be rigged, which is a scam, but are you sure the digital or online slot machines are not rigged either? Yes, let's say the casino complies with their rights to operate and follow the laws, but it can also be helpful that an online casino is programmed by people, so what is the guarantee that an online slot machine is not a scam or rather will give a winner to the gamblers? That's why I don't do slot machines, whether online or physically, because the chances of winning are too low, and I don't want to waste money on that. As the OP said about those scams that offer services, or, let's say, something so that you could win in gambling, if you believe this and spend money on it, then you're an idiot, but it can't be help  if youal are too desperate to win money out of gambling and its your own fault.
645  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are there play and pay later casinos? on: February 04, 2024, 12:17:02 PM
How would such a casino work? Unless maybe they have an ID on you or something because what if you lose and never show up again? In fact I’d say that such a casino would crash because the money that is used in paying people are the ones that others lose. So if people start paying later, you’ll definitely start paying winners later and that doesn’t make sense. I don’t think such casino exists and if it does, I’d really like to hear how they operate without failing.
There's no casino like that; yes, the concept of play now, pay later could be possible, but in casinos, I don't think there is a site that will offer that kind of service because it's too risky for the owner of the site and also for the gambler. Its risky for the site because the gambler might run away from its debt. Yes,  the casino might put a KYC so that they know who and what the gambler is, but when the time comes that the gambler runs away, it will be a hassle process. They will need to cover expenses for legal actions, and it could affect their business. It could be risky and dangerous to the customer because they could not notice how much debt they are in, and the worst is that they will have the mindset of not being aware of or taking care of their debt as long as they are playing. So this kind of service or concept might be impossible in a casino.
646  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you a generous gamblers on: February 04, 2024, 07:16:56 AM
Well, it's great to hear this kind of story. I'm amused by how generous your friend is, how he thinks, and his purpose in gambling. Maybe that's the reason why he often wins money or hits a jackpot—because he shares his fortune and winnings. But to answer the question, am I a generous gambler? Sometimes, because I'm not like your friend, I have little earnings or am not too rich to always give to others. To be practical, I will prioritise myself after others in the concept of money. I mean, I will prioritise saving up the money I get from gambling, or if I win a lot of jackpots, I will buy the things I want and need first and next for my family. I'm not an ungenerous person; maybe I just prioritise being practical first, as I'm not that rich or what. If yes, then why not? I'm more happy to help those really in need.
647  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Everyone Calls My Child's Name Bitcoin. on: February 03, 2024, 11:55:29 PM
Well, it's a good thing that you've used your bitcoin in a useful way; it's proven that bitcoin really can help people who invest in it, and it's also a good thing that you're spreading awareness about bitcoin. Because they have you, if they want to invest, they have an instant guide that will guide them on what to do or not. The problem here is the blame. As you introduce bitcoin to them, I'm sure there are people that will invest in bitcoin without consulting you and might encounter a problem and, in the end, will blame you as you influence them, so you need to take measures about this problem and also your security. As many people know what you are doing, make sure that you will secure your assets, as I'm sure there will always be malicious people with malicious intent on you, especially on what you have.
648  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Do you own a mining rig? on: February 03, 2024, 11:35:38 PM
Well, true ROI in mining is slow; it is profitable, yes, but the return on investment might take a long time. Added to the expenses of electricity and internet, you really need a lot of investment and patience when investing in mining, as it requires a lot of GPU or equipment before you can mine efficiently and to ensure that you will have a profit in a short time. Meaning no expenses allocated for equipment means more profit or faster profit, but you will still not be able to see the ROI right away as you need to consider other things such as electricity, internet, and your daily expenses. So if you are thinking of doing mining, be ready to spend a lot of money and risk not being able to get your ROI. Luckily, I don't continue my investments in mining because I know that I can't sustain them and end up losing money.
649  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do You know trading style that's named - Social trading ? on: February 03, 2024, 11:15:08 PM
I don't see the social trading in your statement OP, and the topic itself is suspicious. If you get it on the internet, at least write it with your own understanding. Anyway, social trading is like copy trading; the difference is that you will have interaction with other traders, and you will see why they will enter or exit this position.

They will share and explain their analysis and their tips and tricks. In short, it's like a community of traders that will share their analysis and their execution; you will be the one that decides if you will follow their technical analysis and execute it. That's why it's like copy trading, but you will be the one who decides, and you will also gain knowledge and techniques on why they did that or how they came up with that analysis, so social trading is recommended for those new to trading.
650  Economy / Economics / Re: A course worth studying ? on: February 03, 2024, 10:55:20 PM
No, no matter what happened, I will still pick the course and school I currently have. You know, every person has a reason why they choose the course and school they have, so no matter what people say, if that course is picked by you without regret, then so be it. No matter what course you've picked, your future will depend on how you do in life. If you choose economics, it's a good course because you will learn and study things related to economics. So don't question yourself just because of some video; you know why you chose your current school and course, so you are the one who will answer your question also. I myself chose the course of IT because I know it has a good future. We all have different preferences in life, so don't be affected by what others say; follow what you've desired because you have something that will build your future.
651  Economy / Economics / Re: Why does a country borrow money from the world bank even when they can afford it on: February 03, 2024, 04:05:46 PM
This is  where banking comes in and how important the banking system is in this world. You see, yes, maybe a developed and advanced country could afford their expenses, but believe it or not, they still need to borrow money from the World Bank. This is because not all the costs are done inside the country; some of the money they borrowed will be used for foreign transactions, and the country's funds are not enough to sustain that because if they did use all the funds in a country, then there would be no circulation inside the country. That's why I understand or believe that no matter how powerful bitcoin or cryptocurrency is, they can't replace the banking system. Yes,  maybe crypto will be implemented, and I believe and am hoping for that, but replacing other things as important as the banking system is what I don't believe will happen.
652  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: VPN - Differences between countries where gambling is legal and not on: February 03, 2024, 02:24:36 PM
A VPN, or virtual private network, is a very useful thing on the internet. I'm sure many users here have already stated what VPN is used for. It could be used to change your IP, depending on what country you've chosen. And yes, VPN can be used to bypass your IP, so if the casino website doesn't allow a specific country or bans that country from accessing the website, you can bypass it by using VPN and changing your IP and country identity. It may be safe to use as it is a private network, but you still need to be careful because some casinos prohibit the use of VPNs. So before using a VPN, make sure that there are no rules or regulations about the usage of VPNs, or else you will be banned from that website. Also, still add more extra income because even if you use a VPN, there is no guarantee that you will be protected from viruses or malware on the internet.
653  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Learning comes before earning on: February 03, 2024, 11:11:00 AM
Think of trading like building a house like you can't throw it up in a day. Newbie traders should focus on learning the ropes, step by step. Fast money isn't the game because it's about gaining skills and experience. Rushing is like trying to finish a building overnight and it just won't work. Take it slow, learn the basics and build your trading skills steadily
True but sad reality: it is inevitable when it comes to new traders, and I understand why they commonly make this mistake: social media influence. You will notice that there are many influencers or advertisers scattered all over the social media platforms. What is their goal? To attract new traders to either avail their services or investors to their services. There are many influencers who are flexing their luxurious achievements just because of trading, and they will promote their platform and offer a free seminar, but if you attend their seminar, the information they will give in the seminar about trading is very basic. The seminar is more on words that attract those who don't have any idea about trading to use their platforms, along with the signals or anything else that they say could help their trading, but in reality, most of them are mostly scams or not very reliable when it comes to trading. That's why many new traders are going through wrong path in trading.
654  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Investment in gambling on: February 03, 2024, 10:49:30 AM
How did you come up with that? I mean, investing or investment and gambling are two different things, also in words or meaning. How could you say that investing is also gambling? Let's put it this way: you are investing in something, and yes, you need to stake money. To be a capital for investing, but the thing is, the only reason or way you could lose money in investment is if you encounter a scsm or you didn't manage your investment well due to wrong decision, management, and approach. While in gambling, you play games or stake money while knowing that you have a bigger chance of losing compared to investing, because in investing with proper knowledge, analysis, and management, you could have your ROI or return on investment. While gambling, there is no guarantee that you will return your capital used for gambling. So they are completely different.
655  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What remarkable thing have you achieved with the money you won from gambling? on: February 03, 2024, 06:08:58 AM
Well, in my current state or in my current mindset, if, for instance, I win a huge amount of money in gambling or hit a jackpot, right away I will secure a house, a car, and also a business. Why these three things? So that no matter what happens, I have my own house and car, and through the business that I build, I could circulate my money for the long run. Of course, I will think about how I will grow my money even more so that my future is secured, including my family or whatever, and I will not be satisfied. I will also look for things that I could invest in, especially in the crypto currency world, but will I still play gambling? As much as I want, yes, but if I become addicted because I have more money because of the win or jackpot, then I would rather stay away from gambling if this thing happens to me.
656  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where is "Why Bitcoin can never be beaten by any other cryptocurrencies?" on: February 02, 2024, 11:37:55 PM
Some people think Bitcoin is untouchable because it was the first and is widely recognized as a digital gold. However, the crypto world is always changing. Newer cryptos bring in cool features, faster transactions, and different use cases. It's like a race where Bitcoin started ahead, but others are catching up. It's like Bitcoin is the OG, the pioneer that set the stage. People have this solid connection with it and even with new cryptos popping up, it's hard for many to ditch Bitcoin because it's been there from the start Smiley
Well, true, you do have a point, and that's why I don't understand those who are stopping or saying that new coins should not be given a chance. For me, I like to explore and discover different new coins that have the potential to grow or that will give me a lot of profit. I like bitcoin; in fact, I have a few holdings, but I don't just own bitcoin; I expand my knowledge and assets into different coins that have the potential, and honestly, it's fine with me or that I earn from it. Yes, there is a risk, but it's better to find new coins so that I'm in from the start, hoping that the coin will also succeed. It's just that bitcoin is the first and mother coin of all, but that doesn't mean we will not give a chance to other coins. There are many more coins that could reach where bitcoin is, but we still should not ignore the fact that they can still be worthwhile to invest in.
657  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Another health benefit of online gambling on: February 02, 2024, 11:00:20 PM
Where are the health benefits there?! I don't see any health benefits stated in your topic; there is still the fact that your neighbour is still sick or still has the illness. It's just that you've found an alternative to playing gambling, which is online ambling. Yes, i it helps you to stop playing gambling, but what are the health benefits there? Still gambling, even at home? Isn't the person supposed to recover or focus on recovering and curing their illness? In your case, you consider online gambling to have health benefits just because you can gamble without going into a crowd? That's nonsense; your topic should be titled "Convenience of Online Gambling," because I don't see any health benefits related to it.

And also, do you think it's still best for an ill person to still gamble? Of course not. Instead of focusing on recovering, they will be stressed because they lost in gambling, so I think this topic is nonsense.
658  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Less than 80 days until the 4th Ever #Bitcoin Halving on: February 02, 2024, 10:36:12 PM
I hope that bitcoin price will surprise those investors by showing them a price that they never expected, let me say something like $150k and above because I don't think most of the investors are hoping to see bitcoin go above the current price which is $43k and you would agree with me that the amount we are hoping to see before the halving is not even close to it which may seem to be very poor. Was expecting to see the price to be at $65k but it hasn't gotten close since this year.

well, we will never know what's gonna happen for this upcoming halving. thus, you should prepare for the possibility of what's to come.and collect what you think you can afford in this type of digital investment.

That's true, we never know but that doesn't mean that traders and equally investors should start panicking because the price of Bitcoin doesn't go in their favor. Everything in the crypto world is about risk and if you don't have the courage of holding is best you do the needful. As it is Bitcoin price isn't moving in a positive direction and anytime soon the price might go down.
That's why bitcoin investment is not for everyone—not for people who have weak hearts or weak resolve and can't stick to their decisions or movements. Those investors, traders, or holders can't control themselves just because they see a slight down side in bitcoin without knowing it's part of the process where the bull run will come. Yes, it's near, but there is no exact time when it will happen. That's why we are preparing for that. A decrease in the price of bitcoin is normal, as many people are halving and selling because of the recent ETF. Just because there is a coincidence that the price dropped after the ETF, people or investors panicked and did panic selling, which was not a good idea to begin with. They are the ones who could not stick to their beliefs about bitcoin. That's why bitcoin is not for weak-hearted and cowardly people who, just because of a sudden change, will panic.
659  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can bitcoin be stolen? on: February 02, 2024, 03:44:19 PM
Sadly, yes, well, because bitcoin is digital and anything that can be accessed on the internet can be stolen by someone. For example, if you put your assets or bitcoin in a scam wallet or if the security of the application is compromised and hackers or people with malicious intent could get all your assets, they can be stolen physically. I remember seeing a topic about him being afraid of his boldings, and because of the people around him, he is afraid that they might do something to him just to get his asset or bitcoin. Well, it can happen. Like I said, there are many reasons for a bitcoin or cryptocurrency to be stolen, but those things will happen if the owner or investor is not careful about what they are doing. You know that anything that is connected to the internet is not safe, so it's up to you to make sure your assets are safe.
660  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Silly and scary questions, and what would you do if that were you. on: February 02, 2024, 12:57:27 PM
Well, this escalated too much or was exaggerated. I mean, it's possible that something like this could happen, but the thing is, who's crypto jolder or bitcoin holder will flex or say to anyone that he has a huge amount of holdings? Okay,  let's say it is accidentally revealed to someone you know. Then it's more likely that they will be shocked, but do you think your friends or family will do something like that just for money? If yes, then how could you be a friend or family? At the start, you should know the people that surround you so that you have trust and confidence that they will not do bad things to you just because they are blinded by money. And yes, the best thing is to be anonymous. I know it's okay to share your achievements, but the thing is, is it worth it to flag yourself as wealthy despite the risk?.
