721  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: About PI Network trend. Is this coin worth holding? on: February 03, 2024, 07:05:09 PM
Just move on as this PI network has been a scam where people have wasted enough time and did KYC for no reason, I mean how can one project be on developing stage for years and there has been no news or update about listing and it irritates me to the core that some are still mining it through their mobile and in so many years we have not seen any update from the dev team about when the coin will be listed as they just divert they just divert the topic with unrelated posts or contests wherein nobody gets anything. We should stop wasting our time in this worthless project.

Not sure how I missed your post and at the same time I have realized that you are not active in this forum for roughly a month but I am leaving this reply so that you can check this whenever you are back. Let me get straight to the point as just investing into Bitcoin or being in this forum will not help you financially as you need to have good amount of money in order to invest a good amount and wait for the right moment to cashout to earn profits because with very little money you may not get the desired results. I would suggest you to focus on getting a job which can pay you well so that you can take care of your family and save good amount for investment then you may think about investing into Bitcoin or any other crypto currency or to trade. Money is required to make more money as money multiplies money with proper planning, go for a better job save more money then come back here and meanwhile focus on increasing your chances of getting better paid job and develop the skills for that. 
723  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Can government track us. on: February 03, 2024, 06:34:56 PM
If I wanted to know something from people on this community, can government track us if we questions against there rules and laws or if they find it inappropriate.
as long as you are on the internet, using a cell phone, using a sim card, identification card, and your face is clear. You can be tracked wherever you are. The government has tools to track you, the government works with the telecommunications company you use to surf the internet. So be careful on the internet, especially if the government is like ours, has special laws, all civilians in our country can be jailed just for calling the president stupid. Our country is a democracy, isn't it strange lol?

This is happening everywhere and not limited to a certain country and to be honest we don't have much options to stop getting tracked by the government apart from stop using the technologies because they can track us through all the technologies which we use, mobile and internet are two best examples for this, these insecure and corrupt governments have changed the meaning of democracy as it's just for namesake but they want to track our activities and control our finances. All they care about is taxes, you cannot fight against government as both the ruling party and the oppositions are evil wherein common people are the ones who are being robbed of their privacy. They do not want anything which they don't control like decentralization and that's why they are hellbent on trying to stop people from indulging into crypto.
724  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Learning comes before earning on: February 03, 2024, 06:14:46 PM
This is valid for all the aspect of life and not exclusive to trading but yes many assume that they can be rich just by trading and directly jumps into it without much idea or knowledge about trading strategies and some even jumps into futures trading with high leverages where even the tenured players thinks twice. I would say they need to learn basics of trading and different types of trading and strategies and indicators but before all this they need to reconsider their expectations as trading is not quick or easy money because everyday cannot be a winning day in trading and one has to sometime accept loss rather than being stubborn and end up losing more. I think new or experience traders they need to first set a clear expectations which should be valid because most of the mistakes happens due to higher expectations wherein users tend to take extra risks by going beyond strategy.
725  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Sentiment Poll for February on: February 03, 2024, 05:56:44 PM
Bitcoin will most probably stay between $40k to $45k and it has retested $40k multiple times in last few days but good thing is Bitcoin has been able to trend above $40k. I had high hopes initially as I though it would cross $45k and eventually cross $50k but since it's a dynamic market and no one can predict accurate even I was wrong and now I think it would be great if Bitcoin manages to float above $40k. Because, anyways once the halving happens we may see dip in the price.
726  Economy / Economics / Re: Quitting Smoking Has Two Big Benefits. on: February 03, 2024, 03:12:05 PM
I used to be a heavy smoker, but I was able to quit it November 2021 and so far I never had regress or go back to him. I just quit, dead stop, and they say that you will feel cold turkey, no I didn't go on that experience. One reason though that I really quit is because I'm also diabetic and we all know the complications.

And looking back, one benefit is financial, I mean I spend money buying cigarettes even in the pandemic and it's ridiculous expensive. Now, I was able to save that money and instead of buying cigarettes, I can buy other things that can benefit me or my family. Obviously, health is another one, I do exercise 3x a week, try to go to the gym and everyday walk 10,000 steps to maintain.

Highly appreciate your move as it's not easy for everyone to quit smoking as it's good for you and the people you surround yourself with as I have sinus and I am allergic to the smell and smoke comes out out cigarette I have always had issues when people around me smoke and there are lot of people like me who has this issue, wish every smoker takes the step you have taken.

I have seen my friends and people going broke to an extend that they cannot afford food but still somehow manages to buy cigarette for smoking by skipping their breakfast. If we quit smoking it helps us to maintain good health and financially we can save that money and use it for something better.  
727  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Psychology of Investing in Bitcoin on: February 03, 2024, 03:05:07 PM
It varies for every individual and for me it's a mix of all and mostly it's never for thrill as profit matters for me thus I am not a day trader but a long term investor who has started DCA for quite a while and it has been really fruitful. Let's talk about emotions like the urge of buying more when Bitcoin is at peak and sometimes making that mistake especially like how people did in 2017 bull run it's natural and it takes time to learn and control our emotions especially when we are new to the market as well as when we don't have any strategy. But  compared to 2017 people are more mature and wouldn't be making blunders now except newbie.
728  Local / India / Re: Everything is becoming shitty with the local board. on: February 02, 2024, 08:50:03 PM
I feel sorry to see that you are making so much of effort but not getting the desired outcome as this would be really frustrating and the most important thing is the worst phase which we are going through as we are struck between rock and a hard place as we are being royally screwed by the government with it's cruel and barbaric policies towards crypto as they just wants our share of profits by implementing atrocious TDS and tax on profit but they don't care about the loses and also now they have tightened the noose by removing the foreign exchanges from App store and play store which will make even P2P transfer difficult and people will be scared when they government will target them. On the other hand the bias which you have mentioned here about the technically sound post and not getting the due respect which our posts or topics should get it's very true but we cannot change much and to be honest not everyone can be technically sound but I think people need to start looking at the content and how helpful it would be before giving merits rather than focusing more on the technical aspects. Anyways these are user behavior which would take time as we may not be able to change it now.

But a big shout out to you for always thinking about the local board and community, dedicating yourself for betterment of this board.
729  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Time to collect altcoins now or later? on: February 02, 2024, 08:34:04 PM
If you know what kind of coins you are going to purchase , and knows your capacity and tolerance in risking then there is no time to accumulate but all time , this is what I learned in this market over the years.
Good altcoins will act towards your desire if they are legit , but if you are going to invest in shitcoins that only green pushes you then expect losing everytime.
remember that there are tons of altcoins in the market but only few that has a real value and roadmap so think first before investing.

Totally aligned with your thoughts but just want to add some of my insights as well which I think would make sense as we know there is never a good or bad time to invest but it does matters as it's applicable only for long term investors not for short term investors. Just imagine a short term investors makes an investment during peak of bull run and the market starts collapsing but do you think the short term investor will wait for couple of years so that price recovery happens or sell it loses? Short term investors needs to ensure they don't invest at peak as they need to figure our when the market is on upward trend and sell it at peak so they cannot invest at anytime they want they have to wait for the perfect opportunity.
730  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What do you think about this top GambleFi projects site? on: February 02, 2024, 08:14:35 PM
Is this an attempt to get traffic to the site ? I find it weird that you have created your account in the name of GambleFI which I suppose was created for marketing purpose of this project itself and you are asking us to review GambleFi project? I am sure you are part of their shill marketing team or just someone who has created an altcoin to work with this GambleFi team on their request. Sorry this wont work as we have seen numerous such marketing gimmicks.
731  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to avoid getting rugpulled on: February 02, 2024, 08:00:10 PM
I know these didn't work with two major projects FTX and LUNA which were rugpulled and people lost huge amount but what OP is trying to do is atleast listing out certain check we need to do in order to avoid falling for other such process, because if you randomly check any new projects which are getting launched everyday they will lacks the features or we can judge them by using the methods OP has mentioned but there are few projects like FTX and LUNA wherein everything will be 10 out of 10 but still they would cheat the users and this is something we cannot help as no other verification method can give you 100% results or accuracy but atleast we can avoid those scams which can identify.

Better to stick to established crypto coins.
732  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How do you use profits from the crypto market? on: February 02, 2024, 07:48:17 PM
1. Yes, I have earned a lot of profit profits in the crypto space and that's the reason I am still associated with it but the methods used for earning profit has been different like Trading, short term investment, long term investment and airdrops.

2. I have utilized my profit for both personal use as well as reinvestment but I have been bit stringent here and had reinvested a larger portion because it increases your profit margin.

3. Yes indeed, only if you use your profits you will get some sort of satisfaction and it will motivate us to work even harder in this crypto space because using profits are like tasting victory which will boost our morale. 
733  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Newbie gathering Club on: February 02, 2024, 07:31:32 PM
I don't want to criticize the post as many others have already done this, but I would suggest you to try exploring the forum as all the links related to newbie/new users are already present in this forum, going forward you may just search for any topic or doubts which you encounter and you will find the relevant post for help and only when you don't find one you may create a topic in regards to the same. Anyways welcome to the forum and focus on basics of Bitcoin and don't fall for any ponzi schemes.
734  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Good thing about your government? on: February 02, 2024, 07:24:21 PM
To be honest. the negative part of the government in my own country is that. the price of things are increased, poverty, insecurity, kidnapping for ransom,
   While the positive side is that they provide free education for children, and youth empowerment. which so many individuals have benefited form it in my country
I don't know what country you're from but why does it seem like every country around the world may have hiked the prices of various things making life miserable for the common man. The prices of various commodities have increased in our country due to which the common people are fed up and very angry with the government. Moreover, various criminal activities like kidnapping are a big problem in our country.

But one positive aspect of our country's government is that they have been able to increase the education rate in our country to a great extent. Our government has provided free books distribution and stipends for poor students to continue their education to increase the education rate.

Yes, Inflation has become common in all the countries I would say it seems like a global issue which would be difficult to be controlled by an individual government but what government can do is atleast make people friendly policies to ease the suffering of people but rather than making policies which goes against the people and make them suffer even more. We have seen so many corporate friendly government policies which is to fund their cronies who in turn funds the government during election. 
735  Economy / Speculation / Re: What are your expectations for the few weeks after the halving period? on: February 02, 2024, 06:42:12 PM
For me, I would expect the price to either stabilize or go down, I don't think that it's going to go up in after a weeks into the halving. That kind of thinking is going to be helpful for me so I can focus on buying more bitcoin to increase what I currently hold in my wallet and at the same time not worry too much about bitcoin and check my wallet from time to time. I don't like stressing over things that wouldn't otherwise bring me anything beneficial that's why it's a good thing that I have a target price to sell so I won't be having any problems that will make me hesitate selling or buying.

I have similar views as well usually the Bitcoin's price drops the weeks following halving and in the previous cycles tenured users used to consider this moment as a final discount on Bitcoin before the bull run and accumulate more but this year I think we may see a different pattern I think it would drop but not with a huge margin because we have more users awaiting for a dump to buy more and I feel this would create more demand which will help Bitcoin to stabilize it's price. But, nothing is guaranteed as we may see a dump as well because we never know if people starts to panic sell by going with emotions then we will see a dump by good margin and then eventually it will recover.
736  Economy / Economics / Re: Why does a country borrow money from the world bank even when they can afford it on: February 02, 2024, 06:24:00 PM
I want to tell you an example of my country, it borrowed money from world bank in 2000 to build national highways and till date they are collecting toll charges from travelers stating it's to pay back the world bank for the loan which we had taken 24 years ago wherein no one has clarity how much has been paid and what's the remaining amount and when people started questioning they started dodging the questions stating it's for the maintenance of highway, etc some irrelevant reasons. It's just because they want more money and loan from world bank is just an excuse to collect more taxes from people. It's plain greed.
737  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: US wants to know bitcoin electricity usage in the country on: February 02, 2024, 06:02:05 PM
They have gone crazy as the hatred for Bitcoin in their mind is clearly visible and I think when they cannot ban Bitcoin as they were unsuccessful in their previous smear campaigns they have now adopted new method of threatening users indirectly and all these unnecessary activities to make miners feel unsecure or to put them in spot light it's actually a design thinking called spot light affect it's a psychological game which they are playing. Bitcoin has sustain all these hurdle and it will sustain this one as well. 
738  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoin season coming soon? on: January 31, 2024, 08:53:09 PM
Till now no i think. We have to wait more time for real Altcoin session it is my observation. With the speculation we can gase near future we will see Altcoin session. Till now bear market for Altcoin not ended. Still some altcoin price decreasing. But some Altcoin price increasing. And near future Bitcoin halving will happen. Then Bitcoin price will increase i think. Then Altcoin coin price will increase and bull session for Altcoin will xome i strongly believe it.

We could call it as mini bullrun for Altcoins as some of the Altcoins have surged beyond expectations and even I think we will have full fledged Altcoin bull run once Bitcoin's price starts pumping up which may happen the the year following the halving somewhere in 2025. Because what we witnessed now is a strange rally where surprisingly Altcoins went for rally without Bitcoin pump though there were gradual pump but not enough to declare bull run.
739  Economy / Speculation / Re: 112 days waiting for bitcoin halving!! on: January 31, 2024, 08:11:20 PM
Price acting great right now, maybe its the hype of the halvening on the horizon.   Iam a sceptic but its not my job to ignore the public sentiment if it is positive then it can drive up the price easily.  My basic take if each halvening has been half the effect or change of the last hence I now look around for greater factors to push us off the line either way up or down.  Last time it was covid so quite obvious, I'm happy if we can keep heading higher 43.8k to beat for todays high.

There is a a lot to come and we may see frequent fluctuation until halving and this is the time most of the big players will try to manipulate the market for accumulating Bitcoin for bullrun and they would have already accumulated enough when BTC was under $20k. I second your thought and we should go with the market trend and consider any dip as buying opportunity and any pump as selling opportunity if we are looking for short term investment or gain but for long term we can do DCA which I am currently doing for a while and it's been the most stress free investment thing I have ever come across. I think Bitcoin may head towards $50k if it stays around the same number for a week or so.
740  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum will still be my choice this year. on: January 31, 2024, 08:04:53 PM
If we have to choose altcoin with lesser risk then it would always be ETH and I still remember as ETH was the only Altcoin to resist the bear market even when Bitcoin went bearish during the beginning of 2018 and it apart from Bitcoin I can only remember ETH breaking it's previous ETH during the 2021 bull run (out of those coins which were part of 2017 bull run and 2018 bear market) because there were coins like XRP, XLM, LTC and other coins which is yet to recover from the bearish market low and break their 2017 bull run ATH.

If there is any other coins apart form Bitcoin then we can always prefer ETH though I have some other coins as well this time like ADA and UTK.
