Op, I don't really get what you are asking but if you are asking about how to upload images then you have to become at least Jr member which requires you to have 1 merit and 30 activity.


Edit: you can also upload image by getting copper membership just like @Crypto Library as said

Also you shouldn't be disappointed or give up in bitcoin or crypto investment if trading hasn't work for you just try to HODL bitcoin or at least do more proper research on the altcoin you choose to HODL

While you're talking about hodling altcoins, I just want to put it out there that they're a gamble. Altcoins don't have the same fate as Bitcoin. You can hold Bitcoin and be guaranteed that you'll make profits when the market is bullish but the same thing can't be said about altcoin and how do you do your research to know which one will do well when the ones doing well recently aren't even the ones we would've called the good projects because I see just projects with good marketing teams doing well irrespective of the projects been trashed.
True but bitcoin has always been offering lesser risks but some still prefer to invest in altcoins and we know most of this liquidation definitely comes from altcoin and so just better to let them know even in the altcoins HODLing is still better though is just for them to do more research and hope they investing in the right one or just stick with bitcoin.
Also for me, HODLing altcoin as a shorter spam which can be 6 months to 2 years while Bitcoin for as long as you would like.

Which recovery phase?, If you see a team that is playing for performance improvement you would know, Manchester United is very far away from playing to recover. Last season's performance that gave them the opportunity to qualify for the Champions League competition is even much better than their performance this very season. With Erik ten Hag as still the Man Utd's head coach, nothing would change even now or in the future.

This is a very bold statement which I don’t agree with. From your statement that last season’s performance weren’t bad so that means Ten Hag and his team has a thing in their sleeves. If we analyze it properly all Manchester United appointed mangers have actually have a very poor second season at the club after a very good first one. This means that the problem isn’t entirely base on the manager alone but also the club hierarchy too. They have failed to support each manager with the signings that they require and this can actually affect the manager plans.

With the injuries surrounding this team currently I will trust Ten Hag till at least the end of the season. If he can actually get them a trophy in his first season and qualify them to the champions league them I will say he can actually make them bounce back again
Let's be Frank, Ten Hag is just too overhyped aside Jose Mourinho and Van Gaal I can't remember any top tier coach United has signed since Fergusen left, just overhyped coach who fails to meet team expectations though Mourinho was better than the other.
Which player did Ten Hag requested for that He didn't get or try to get for him?
Who requested for Onana, Mount, Rasmund and others.

Last season He had issues with Ronaldo, this season Sancho next season we don't know
Aside from injury crisis in which they also struggle to win even when they are fit Ten Hag has no excuse.

The fact is Ten Hag should know his place and let go of some pride so that he will be respected by team while the players needs to have their trophy winning mentality which they have lost for over a decade now, I don't really think Ten Hag can help in this area but Man United can give a shot and see how the perform next season.

It's January 5 and those traders who focus on using leverage are already hitting huge losses when it's not even bear market.
Twitter

This happened 2days ago, over $600 million has already been loss few days to 2024. Trading is hard and risky while using leverage makes it more risky especially using high leverages. One reason to avoid trading with leverage is that, these traders suffers more in pump and dump Schemes and also market Manipulations especially those traders who trade meme coins and other altcoins which are prone to this.
The best bet now is to HODL even if you are investing in altcoin find some trusted ones and HODL while if you reduce risk entirely just stick with bitcoin since we have seen alot of altcoins which fail to meet expectations.

Even if you desire to trade just use spot trading or any other offering less risk while when using leverage use small leverages and don't be too greedy to use stop lost and take profit.

Also you shouldn't be disappointed or give up in bitcoin or crypto investment if trading hasn't work for you just try to HODL bitcoin or at least do more proper research on the altcoin you choose to HODL while if you are still have desire to trade, reduce the amount you use in trading, try to avoid risk when necessary and continue to learn to improve your skills and knowledge about trading.

I don't know, but it is difficult to trust a service with your data, so such sites may be an excellent place for hackers to steal data, or they may be managed by the government or companies that sell data, especially since there is no legal obligation to share data.

In general, do not post your personal email publicly, do not randomly click on links and assume that your email has been leaked.
True though this site has been trusted for long and what's the chance of you being aware if there is any kind of breach in your data and I understand we have to be cautious such services since they can be rendered by the government or companies that sell data and also its alot of hackers will have their eye on them but I can try this while something I will not try to use are password managers.
Good to know that my primary email shows this after I checked my primary email

Good news — no pwnage found!
If you're subscribing and signing in on platforms you must have 3 emails.

One for subscription and signing up
One for communication
And your main email exclusive for sites like Bitcointalk

And be sure to use a strong password and 2FA authentication on all these emails. secure your emails just like how you secure your investment.
Thanks for this,M God bless you, I will try to adopt this method hence forth.

I guess another step to add some privacy and security when using these sites is to be anonymous by using Tor browser or any trusted privacy browser and VPN to avoid fingerprinting and IP address being tracked.

We will always use email and click links online,  data breaches may occur in platform we sign up with our email while some links online are malicious. We may not be aware of these breaches or links except we use some tools to monitor these and then take the necessary steps to protect ourselves online.

For email breach:
One of the best tool for this is the HIBP (Have I been pwned), you don't have to sign up to use it. I recently use it and its doesn't just verify if your email address as any breach but also where did the breach occurred and what data was reviewed to the public.


Input your email address and click the pwned?

note: This site offers other features like pwned Password, which check if a password has ever been exposed in any data breach. You can access it other features by clicking the menu button at the top right corner of the image above.



I did try it with my own email and it has 2 data breaches from Canva and Wattpad. When I sign up on those platforms I never knew anything much about privacy and security, so I literally signed up directly with my Gmail account and I guess the compromise data is what they took. I never knew they literally had such data breach till I did this.




 
Privacy policy : I checked the privacy policy, the data collected are what are needed for verification and its not shared with third party.

File/links Scanners :
Some files and links online contains malware which we may not be aware of but in order to have some surety that a file or link is secure, you can use :
VirusTotal's : this scan link/files with the aid of 70 antivirus engines and blacklisting services to verify if it is free from malware.

Privacy policy: Its shares user data with the community to teach and improve knowledge about malicious files/links
Though it offer anonymous features that is, you don't need sign up to use it, were you can verify if a link or file contains malware (this fixture is what I did use).

There are other sites that offers this features but I don't really know any that up to 70 anti-virus engines while for the HIBP I have not use others except this.

What people need to pay attention is don't intentionally forget or delete your old wallet seeds, you or someone might unintentionally send coins to your old address.
Yes this is true but we ought to keep the previous keys with cautiousness of were its been stored to avoid others from signing signatures with it and using it maliciously

-Snip-
Though I have not been affected by this but I will stick to this because I recently created a new wallet which I later forgot the password to my amusement and then I just the wallet cleared data on my device and input my seed phrase and thankfully it was a password not passphrase and so I was able to access my wallet.
Then  I ask my self this question, imagine if it was a passphrase, then the wallet is gone. I guess others who also forgot their password or passphrase never expected to forget such password /passphrase.
My advice on this would be when you creating a password or passphrase on your wallet or anything relating to finance use something that is really secure and you have use before don't just randomly try something new on them

Newcastle has never been the same as Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal and Manchester City in terms of player transfers. I mean, Newcastle management is more concerned with long-term projects by building squad depth gradually rather than spending a lot of money in one transfer season. This policy can certainly help them save a lot of money on purchasing players, but they also prioritize quality.
They actually trying to avoid the situation we are have been seeing in Psg in the recent years, is not only about the squad depth, the players needs to respect the coach and each others so they will continue to build with the players of the same class and as time goes by qualities of these players will increase.

You are right, Newcastle is a rich club, but they don't seem to be in too much of a rush to build depth in their squad with a number of star players. Eddie Howe is an influential coach, but unfortunately Newcastle's performance this season has not lived up to the expectations of many fans. The defeat to Liverpool was their 9th defeat of the season in the Premier League, so they are in a decline in form compared to last season.
I can say their decline in forms is from their injury crisis while they are inconsistent this season, we can say this season has been quite competitive than last season and so I think they need to work well on their winning mentality because in the end that differentiate every quality team from each other.
The competition for the Premier League title is becoming more and more exciting! Manchester City is showing incredible form in their recent matches, and I can clearly see their determination to succeed. The top four teams, especially Liverpool, are not giving up either. Aston Villa is putting in a commendable effort, making the points difference not as significant.
The league is getting tougher by the day especially at this late time of the season because the competition between Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City, Aston Villa and Arsenal is very strong that you can hardly see a club lasting longer on the premier League first position because almost all the above mentioned club has tested the premier League first position but could not stay long, so perhaps right now is very difficult to predict the winner because there performance are almost equal but however with the way things are going if Liverpool remains consistent on there performance they will stand on a higher chance of wining the league.
I will actually exclude Tottenham and Aston villa from the list of title contenders but they can be considered top 4 contenders while Arsenal is the least among the 3 (Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City) to win the league since they are more inconsistent. If Liverpool really want to win the league, they already know that they need to avoid losing or drawing games since Man City is not a team to give such opportunity because it will be hard to get it back from them just like what happened between Man City and Arsenal last season

It talked about the advantages of rank in campaign which I later found out is an advertisement where one get paid in Bitcoin. Like someone doing DCA for you for just posting now that's cheap and not subject to psychological battles with demons.
Yea signature campaign is an easy way for DCA while others it's a source of living but it's not just about posting. Campaign managers search for quality posters to advertise the brand, which means that only quality posters are accepted or will remain in the campaign for long.

After thought: I smiled that i  would bliz through it and become captain marvel  (legendary)  until I saw a member with a thousand plus post and not yet a full member that dashed my confidence away. Maybe in 10 years time I would be a member Cheesy
ranking up depends with individual perceptive, if you are a good quality poster and make good contribution to the forum, ranking up is not difficult.
Anyway maybe after going through the resources below you can become Brainiac 5 and rank up fast
Here's the knowledge iceberg, IMO:

Level 0: Start off by visiting bitcoin.org.
Level 1: Learn me a bitcoin: https://learnmeabitcoin.com/.
Level 2: Mastering bitcoin: https://github.com/bitcoinbook/bitcoinbook.

Thanks for the courses! It seems a lot of courses you have collected. Now, I am curious if you have purchased any of them or how you collected them. Do you have the authority to share these courses online? Isn't it unethical to share a course because whoever bought these courses is supposed not to resell or share online for free? Because the company/person who made these courses will face significant losses for that.
Yes there are no issue about this made enquiry before posting it.
But I have indeed seen some Facebook were selling thousands of courses for dirty cheap prices. But I never trusted them and I thought those were scams. Moreover, who knows if these files contain viruses?
Yes, just check with this https://www.virustotal.com/, guess I can say its all good now.

Luton Town was no worse in this game, but the difference was that Chelsea made use of their chances more efficiently obviously and were able to take a three goal lead. I think it is never easy to come back when you are three goals down of course, but it was fun to see how Luton Town got back into the game and was really close to equalizing the game. Damn I wonder what would have happened with Pochettino if Chelsea wasted those three points in this game after that huge lead. Maybe he would have gotten into trouble this weekend.

Chelsea has been comfortable since the first half by scoring 3 goals and Luton Town scored 2 goals in the second half in the 80th and 87th minutes meaning the Chelsea players lost concentration towards the final minute or maybe they underestimated Luton so they did not anticipate any attack. However this match goes, the most important thing is the final result and Chelsea getting 3 points, now Chelsea is in 10th place yeah these teams are in the middle of the standings and compete with each other to take a place in the European league.
Thankfully Chelsea won the match but we must acknowledge the fact that Luton never made the game better for Chelsea even having a better stat.
Chelsea must learn one thing from this game that until the match is over things definitely can turn around, the fighting spirit Luton had yesterday was a world class and Chelsea as to face this issue they are always found of relaxing as matches is about to end when they are taking the lead especially if it has been since the first half of the game.

Truth be told I think the reason behind the poor performance of Manchester United today was because they underestimated Nottingham Forest because of their position in the league, United come back result in their previous game against Aston Villa should have been a big morale booster for them but I think it affected their performance since they couldn't have a good performance against a team like Forest. Erik Ten hag isn't a good man for the United team so I think he needs to leave the team if he can't win teams that have no history against United.
In my opinion, the match between Nottingham Forest and Man United was an unnecessary defeat for Erik Ten Hag but the result was certainly surprising. The first half was a bit boring but after entering the second half the  intensity of the game increased quite a lot  and they were able to attack each other. In terms of quality Man United has that but the mentality of the players on the field is a big  problem for this club. After half a  season  at Man United Andre Onana has conceded almost 45 goals. This is  a fantastic number  to be used as a reference  that this is the  wrong choice of goalkeeper. This defeat was the gift of the year for Erik Ten Hag and Man United  the cycle of winning  was only fleeting and then followed by successive defeats.

A bad result for MU, but not surprising I think. That's because MU's performance is inconsistent. they over-celebrated Aston Villa's stunning 3-2 win.
and now we see that when MU faces a weaker team, they also look overwhelmed.
Ten Hag may have no hope this season. and MU may have to make changes to its coaching squad and players next season.
Man United can not be consistent like I said after their last match when others were thinking they were back, I said they are no difference from what we have been seeing since the beginning of the season. Man United is inconsistent, I guess this is the only position Chelsea and Manchester United will fight for this season like who is the worst among them.
Manchester United may need to change coach but the players are still good, wasn't the same player that came from a two goals down to get win, wasn't the same team that trash Chelsea even when everyone expected Chelsea to win. The players are good but are really too inconsistent, needs a good coach to stick winning mentality in their head
