641  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Elon Musk guesses who bitcoin's mysterious creator Satoshi Nakamoto is on: January 01, 2022, 09:49:22 AM
Elon Musk appears to have a pool of smart people he works with to discuss topics like these. It appears Nick Szabo is the leading candidate in their upper tier of their intelligentsia. If it is Nick Szabo he must be one of those who avoids media attention and the spotlight. In contrast to the Craig Wright's of the world, Szabo tends to keep a low profile.

Its been claimed linguistic analysis of bitcoin whitepapers best match Nick Szabo's writing style. But I don't remember specifics or examples being cited. Does anyone know which specific words or phrases were claimed to link Nick Szabo's writing style to any of the whitepapers authored by Satoshi Nakamoto?
It is quite funny that the person the world is believing to be the real satoshinakamoto is denying knowing anything about how Bitcoin was created, why those that we don't even believe that they are satoshinakamoto are the ones who are coming out to claim that they are the creator of Bitcoin.

Anyways, for now we can say that we have not seen the real Satoshi , although this guy that everyone is pointing at right from time (Nick Szabo) seems to be quite close to being the real satoshinakamoto due to a lot of things about him can be linked to the idea of Bitcoin. Apart from him, others who have come out to claim that they are the satoshinakamoto doesn’t really have much to prove for it. And at the end they just fell, because they have nothing to backup their claims.

643  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: USDT or BNB? on: December 30, 2021, 09:40:35 PM
For now of course BNB is more promising than USDT, the opportunity to continue to rise because it has a BSC network that is proven to be very fast and cheap compared to ETH makes BNB more popular and I'm sure a maximum of 2 years will shift ETH.
I don't know how you can compare a stable coin with a utility token. I mean USDT is meant to provide stability while BNB is a whole blockchain os obviously the possibility of growth in USDT is 0% while BNB may or may not grow. I would have understood if we were comparing BUSD vs USDT but this makes no sense right here to compare BNB and USDT.

From a swapping and using point of view, anything on ETH network is freaking costly right now due to the clogged up blockchain so I prefer doing transactions on Pancakeswap. Even when I have to transact USDT, I do it on the Tron blockchain now.
Same here, I don't quite get the question and comparing a stable coin with BNB doesn't make sense. Probably,
the question would have been like comparing 2 coins of binance (BUSD and BNB), other than that I am not seeing any reason to compare BNB to tether. And one more common thing is, both are centralized cryptocurrencies from known corporate.

By the way, BUSD is more secure than USDT but then the volume is massive for USDT.

How long have you been hodling a particular coin while the coin has been making progress for your profit taking and yet dropping in your eyes ?

Some people don't understand the hodling technique, they are hodling a particular coin and never sell to rebuy again or to sell and buy another coin. You can sell this coin and buy that other coin that is how to turn over your money.

I didn't tell you to sell your bitcoin and not to buy again. I only say you sell the bull and buy the bear  Grin
LOL, people who do such thing, I don’t know what’s actually their plan in this life. Maybe they don’t want to sell because they feel that the market will go up when they sell and they will miss their only chance of becoming millionaires?

Well, everyone and their own ways, it can also be that they have plans to invest in and hold the coin for a long term, there are people who might plan to hold their coin for like five years or so, because the money they are investing is a money that they won’t really be needing, so instead of keeping it in the bank, they might decide to just invest it and keep holding. It’s never bad though.
646  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Always take profit on: December 26, 2021, 08:42:59 PM
investment in potential projects and coins is highly recommended and you are right that if you want to make a profit then don't miss out on projects and coins that can clearly be profitable, namely buying and investing your capital to invest in good projects and potential coins.
waiting for the right moment and not being too hasty when the price we want has not been met or when it has been fulfilled so don't be greedy to sell it immediately.
If someone had a target price that they would want to sell at and the market reaches that price, I think greediness in this case would be them not selling their coins and still continue to hope for more increase, and not like you have said it.

Well, I am not trying to say that it is bad to keep holding and hoping for more increase. If you reach your price target and the market still seems like there would be more increase, then you can still to hold and wait to see if there would be further increase in the price. I have seen people who would decide to take a little profit from what they have gotten so far and leave the rest in their wallet in case there should be more of the increase in the price.
647  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ripple makes a $1 price bull set for 2022 on: December 26, 2021, 07:46:05 PM
This airdrop has once again brought a lot of interest to Ripple and increased the number of investors in this currency. The question is why its price will rise by the New Year 2022?
The Ripple team is working on various marketing strategies and partnerships with various banks/companies that can help the company in providing a specific solution for international transactions!!
Could you please enlighten me on what airdeop you are talking about? Does the ripple corporation conduct any airdrop or anything similar to that? I checked on google for ripple airdrop but I could not get anything constructively. if your time permits, please share more information on this.

The Ripple team is working on various marketing strategies and partnerships with various banks/companies that can help the company in providing a specific solution for international transactions!!
Yeah ripple corporation is notoriously known for pumping their coin and then dumping all the times for years and I have read some big banks from tier-1 countries also adopting ripple's technology for money remittance purposes. So, I guess they will always work on more marketing strategy to keep their coin more attractive.
648  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What Crypto Projects Will Be 100X In 2022? on: December 26, 2021, 07:21:27 PM
Investing in a new project looks more realistic for getting x100. And if you invest in a new coin at the seed or private round stage, then your chances of getting the coveted xxx by the time of TGE will noticeably increase. And if this coin also has a listed on a top exchange, then x100 will be more than real.
At the same time losing all your investment amount before that new project getting into listing at any of exchange is also highly possible if you keep on choosing only new projects. There are only 0.1% of new projects showing good growth and again chances of finding such real potential projects out of all new projects is less than 0.001%. Hence, you must be having 99.999% to lose your capital by investing into a random shitcoin.
649  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Viable Altcoin for the moment on: December 26, 2021, 03:28:24 PM
Have been looking for the most viable altcoin of the the week, as we are all aware of the deep that is currently happening in the entire cryptocurrency market, Bitcoin is my most preferred choice at the moment but am also looking for Alt that I can invest in for a long term basis that will offer me a passive profits in the long run.
Only those people who are not having clear idea about the future of bitcoin might be looking for other opportunities in altcoins; it seems you are already well aware of bitcoin and its future hence I like to suggest you to go only with bitcoin investment for guaranteed profits in near future rather than risking in any of altcoins which might be getting your losses in the end.
650  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: There are no decentralized cryptocurrencies on: December 26, 2021, 10:05:42 AM
As long as we rely on any centralized system, crypto can not be truly decentalized.  How do we solve this?  What is the next step towards true decentralization? A world-wide cascading network of long range radio devices (HAM, LoRa, etc) that people can assemble and program themselves?
When we start ignoring all the services which are asking to clear KYC, we could solve this. But, in this busy world everyone (including myself), goes for KYC mandatory services (for exchanging, gambling, etc) for quick and ease access and killing the true purpose of bitcoins.

We must develop community based P2P exchanges to skip centralized exchanges and should support only gambling services which are promising about No-KYC-forever. I guess we cannot lead a life without dependent on any of centralized services but we could stay anonymous by  protecting our privacy/identity to ensure the decentralization.
651  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If I had bought bitcoin 10 years ago, I would have been a millionaire: Not true on: December 26, 2021, 06:12:01 AM
Oh, I'm not sure they wouldn't be able to hold on for 10 years, it ain't that long of a period. If anything, if it was bought in the early stages of bitcoin, good chances some might even forget they got it 5 years in, and then they could hold on to it for another 5 years and that's it. At least that seems plausible to me. And if some of them are serious investors, then they might be used to long term investments.
What the op has said is true. Although there might be people who would be able to hold for long term, but it would be just very few of them. The people who are saying that they regret not buying and holding for ten years are only saying that because of how far that bitcoin n has gone, and because they have seen that the price increased and some got rich through it.

If it was never like that, all these people wouldn’t come out to say such and they would even be happy that they didn’t invest in it or that they sold on time. Back then Bitcoin was still new and none of them had it in mind that it would grow this and any slightest increase would make them to sell their coins for sure, to get profit.
652  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: risk to reward the right balance? on: December 25, 2021, 09:03:57 PM
I think the stop loss must be put by doing the technical analysis. You will get the price to set stop loss. If you need any ratio then I think you must trade 1 is to 2 or 1 is to 3.
I agree with the first part, stop loss is a must for any trade, especially when trading lesser-known and tokens with a smaller market cap because you never know what token could turn out to be the next Squid Game Token scam. I am not sure about the risk and reward factor because I am a trade who believes in instincts and if you are going to code a bot that works on numbers, more often than not, you will lose money because the market is volatile.
653  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: When Bull Market will Start on: December 25, 2021, 08:32:11 PM
Hello Everybody can we expect Bull market in January 2022, Can bitcoin create his ATH in 2022.     
In fairness, I have stopped predicting or expecting too much from the Bitcoin market and that's not because I am negative about it but because I am certain the growth will happen but since the market is mammoth it will take time to expand. The growth initially is faster and then it gets stable and slow as will be the case with BTC. This is the reason why I prefer altcoins above BTC at the moment when it comes to trading actively.

When it comes to holding and larger trades, yes BTC is the king, no doubt about that. And talking of ATH, I think there is little to no doubt that we will touch a new ATH within 2022 but the real question is what price will we retain after reaching that point. Like this year we have been floating around $50k despite touching around $70k earlier.
654  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Stop or continue trading on: December 24, 2021, 03:55:50 PM
I have lost all my capital to trading but still yet I feel the urge to trade more, I spent a huge capital to trade some new coins recently and was actively involved in spot trading. But recently I lost all my capital and I decided to give a break but now am feeling I should return back to trading.
What exactly is making you feel that you should return and start trading again? Have you taken your time to gain knowledge about trading and how to perfect yourself?  Because if you’re still your same old self that lacks knowledge on how to trade in the market, then you would still be coming back to make the same mistakes that you have made before.

So my advice would be that now you’re still away from the trading, you should take your time and learn everything you have to know, learn everything that is necessary to make your trading a success before you come back and start trading. Whenever you feel you have learnt enough, then you can start again. And don’t start with a huge capital like you did before, this time around you should start with a little capital and see how far you can go. If you’re able to prove to yourself that you are really good enough, then you can be increasing the capital a bit by bit.
655  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: COPA just won its first hearing against Craig on: December 23, 2021, 09:48:12 PM
The claims that CSW wanted the judge to remove purport to show several instances of CSW either forging or doctoring documents that he had used to support his claim of being Satoshi. While these do not prove that CSW is not Satoshi, they certainly diminish his credibility in the case, and make it more difficult for him to support his claim with what can reasonably considered to be hearsay evidence.
Why is this guy fond of forging documents all the time? This is like the second or third time that I’m seeing that he forged a document. There has also been a time when he forged a document and people found out, now he’s doing again.

This is going to make people not to believe him any longer. If he was truly the Satoshi Nakamoto, then he wouldn’t be trying to forge anything at all, he would be able to prove himself without stress. The real Satoshi would have proven himself without having to go this far at all, that’s if he wants to. With the things this guy has done so far, there is nothing he can do to convince me that he’s the Satoshi Nakamoto.
656  Economy / Economics / Re: The Danger of Local Economy. on: December 23, 2021, 12:53:26 PM
According to Economic Confidential blog " IMF says, Crypto Assets May Displace Local Currencies in Developing Countries". Source: Economic Confidential, Facebook page..

Bitcoin is taking over the internet for online transaction, therefore, most of  the local currencies in the developing Nations are affected.. because developing Nations are not inclined in the e-currency transaction while the new generation youths use the e-currency for transactions. That making the local currency weak.

Can Bitcoin really weaken the Local Currencies in the Developing Nations?
Personally, I don’t really think that’s going to be the case in this situation. A lot of these people make use of cryptocurrency for their online transactions, but at the end of the day they still end up withdrawing that money to their local currency. I move I don’t really see anything bad about that, because cryptocurrency has really created a lot of opportunities for the youths in these countries.

A lot of them have been able to become successful by trading cryptocurrencies online. So, this is an opportunity for them, and is also a way for them to generate income and help the country. So, it’s not really bad and I don’t think it’s going to affect their currencies at all.
657  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Question about receiving addresses on: December 22, 2021, 01:51:25 PM
I want to receive money into my blockchain com wallet:
Under Wallets & Addresses tab, there are unused addresses (segwit) which I can add and label them.
So, can I use those btc addresses as receiving addresses permanently?
I think how the blockchain.com wallet works is that every time you use an address to receive  find, the wallet automatically creates a new and unique address that is also linked to your private key wallet. It doesn’t repeat the same address, but you can also decide to continue making use of that particular address that you have used to receive funds.

Although you have to know is that the reason why they changing the address and giving you a new and unique one is for added security. And of course you can use the addresses, but using them permanently means that every funds goes to the address and can easily be traced. It’s usually best when you’re steady changing the address. But it is still up to you on whatever you want to do and how you want it.

Uuhm, Why do I think that this platform looks kind of shady 🤔?? You just click on the website and they are already telling you to login? Is it a must that I will have to had  signed up before I can access the site and learn about them? The site should be bringing me to a homepage that first describes what the platform is all about and discuss every other necessary information that I need to know about them before I talk about whether I am to be signing up on their website or not.

I cannot just sign up on any website with my email when I am not yet sure what it is all about. I have never heard of this name before, and it is coming from a newbie. Nah, not a good one for me so I am just going to pass on it, except you can convince me on that, which probably you can’t from the look of things.
659  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Coinbase listed 83 assets in 2021 on: December 22, 2021, 04:48:12 AM
My issue with Coinbase and a lot of the exchanges is that they listed quite a few obvious pump and dump coins simply because they either were paid a lot by the team or they knew the trading fees they would rake in would be worth it.  While I understand this to a point I would much rather see things like Helium and some of the DEX tokens like JOE get listed as they have legitimate uses and help increase liquidity
Coinbase wasn’t the type of exchange that would go kind of rampant like this on their listing of coins, they hardly listed coins and just had a few tradable assets on their exchange. I was quite surprised that they listed quite a lot of coins this year. I would see a coin kind of getting hyped and the next thing I would know, it is already listed on Coinbase and I’m like ‘what?’.

A lot of those coins lost value, and they were just coins that were getting hyped only and nothing much apart form that. Although it is not bad that they tried to expand their lists of coins to make more available for trading for traders who would want to be making use of their exchange.
660  Other / Archival / Re: Are Banks afraid of Crypto adoption? on: December 21, 2021, 05:14:11 PM
I would guess that banks who are too late to participate in this will be getting results similar to being late to online banking as well. As we have all moved to using our mobile phones for most payments (at least in my nation) we are facing even less and less card payments, let alone cash payments and that will result with crypto getting closer.

As soon as there is a regulation saying banks could be used as crypto wallets, we will be able to spend our crypto anywhere all around the world thanks to our bank and that is the most important part. Any bank that will not do it will end up being left behind and that will result with them not being used a lot, and eventually people will leave to other places that does offer this chance. Let's see what happens but I do not agree that "afraid" is the right word, there are ones who care, and there are ones who do not care, the ones who do not care will end up losing a lot of money.
Is it really necessary for banks to be the ones who will be holding our cryptocurrency for us? A decentralized cryptocurrency like bitcoin doesn’t need a bank to hold it for us, you can hold it for yourself and don’t need banks to hold it for you. And I also don’t think that we need banks playing the exchanger role in the market or do we?

When I got to know about Bitcoin I never saw it as a competition for the fiat, I simply saw it as another option, which is better. I don’t know why a lot of people these days has changed what it is all about, and they are now making it seem like bitcoin was created to be a competition. If bank should start accepting cryptocurrency, I am not going to have my coins stored in a bank, I’d rather have it stored in a private wallet where I would have my private keys and be in control.
