How do you even expect to earn merit if like 95% of your post are on bounty threads? And the remaining 5% of your posts that aren't on bounty threads are really subpar.

Want to receive merit? Actually do your research and make good content. No offense, but you can't expect to do better than most people here if your knowledge concerning bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are below average.
7803  Economy / Speculation / Re: who believes that the price of BTC high next month? on: November 23, 2020, 06:53:22 AM
As far as I've read and know the Btc information.I'm sure the Bitcoin price will go up to  22,000$

Can you share with us what you've read and what you know that makes you really really certain that bitcoin will reach $22k next month? Because as far as I know(you can correct me if I'm wrong though), no one can predict the markets, unless you have a magic crystal ball.
7804  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Real purpose of Bitcoin on: November 23, 2020, 03:27:37 AM
I'm sure that Satoshi thought about this possibility and personally I think this is a step towards his vision.

Satoshi may or may not thought of this possibility, but it really doesn't matter. What I'm quite sure of, is that Satoshi is completely aware that Bitcoin is a community project and the community will decide which path it goes. And since the community seems to be pretty 50-50(or both) with Bitcoin being a SoV and for-payment, then so be it.
7805  Local / Pamilihan / Re: Union Bank Launches Blockchain Xcellerator Program on: November 23, 2020, 03:23:54 AM
Personally not a fan of blockchain-ing almost everything, pero news like this gives me confidence na mababa ang likeliness na ma-ban ang Bitcoin sa future, once na ma-threaten sila nito. Still though, andun parin ung possibility.
7806  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: im asking now really are the many cryptocurrency users traders are BDSM ? on: November 23, 2020, 03:03:08 AM
Are you referring to Coinbase? LOL.

Anyway, based on my observations, a lot of people(not everyone, of course) mostly don't really care that much about fees. They tend to stick with exchanges that they've been using for a while already, and the ones with great UI and UX(like Coinbase).
7807  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Rumours that Bitcoin was created in Russia on: November 22, 2020, 04:47:46 PM
You might want to give us sources on where you got those claims, but it doesn't really matter where Bitcoin was created, and whoever Satoshi Nakamoto really is. Satoshi could've been Hitler and it still wouldn't matter because Bitcoin in it's current state is decentralized anyway.

P.S. Probably stop reading conspiracy theories, especially the extraordinarily bad ones like the ones you mentioned.
7808  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Real purpose of Bitcoin on: November 22, 2020, 04:45:34 PM
Bitcoin is whatever you want to use it for, and I couldn't care less if you only look at it as an investment. As long as the network is up and running and I'm able to use Bitcoin for my needs, then I'm good.
7809  Local / Altcoins (Pilipinas) / Re: Biglaang pag angat ng XRP on: November 22, 2020, 10:14:29 AM
Not a fan of most altcoins especially XRP(for obvious reasons), pero it isn't new na maganda ang performance ng maraming altcoins pagdating sa bull markets. With that said, altcoins like XRP are mostly high risk high reward, so proceed with caution.
7810  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How can I increase my Newbie rank? on: November 22, 2020, 08:07:28 AM
Rule #1 to increase your rank: You need to learn to use the forum's search function, or at least learn how to use Google.

*snip*

Yea.. I think I made it pretty clear with this statement:

It's currently on beta though, so obviously proceed with caution.

I wouldn't personally stop sharing cool stuff just because there are a lot of newbies. In the first place, this is posted under the "Development & Technical Discussion" section.
7812  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Best NSFW Sites Accepting Crypto? on: November 22, 2020, 03:43:31 AM
Found this page: pornsites.xxx/porn-sites-accepting-bitcoins   <--- NSFW, obviously

Not sure if it's up to date, and the sites listed seem to be lesser-known, but yea. Enjoy your "research", I guess?  Tongue
7813  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: New to bitcoin! Best wallet to use? on: November 22, 2020, 03:39:25 AM
If you have a smartphone(who doesn't?), my best suggestion would probably be BlueWallet[1]. As usual, just don't do something stupid like saving your 12-24 word backup on a text file and such. Just write down the backup words on a piece of paper and you're good.

Also, if you're really new, take a look at: https://NotYourKeys.org/

7814  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Localbitcoins on: November 22, 2020, 03:29:36 AM
As far as I know the platform is still quite the same(correct me if I'm wrong), besides the AML/KYC requirement which is a big turnoff in my book. While users are a lot lower, I'd suggest using similar platforms that doesn't require AML/KYC instead:

7815  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Thinking of joining the HEX campaign? Think again. on: November 22, 2020, 03:26:03 AM
hex.com above was saying "hex will continue to rise in the future" so that kind of a claim is a scam IMO. There is no way to guarantee gains and HEX doesn't have any revenue/demand to support gains other than tricking more people into buying, locking it up, etc - typical pyramid shit.

Pretty much. I'd personally put them in the "scheme" category since almost everything is transparent anyway, but the outrageous claims not only from the HEX community, but from the founder/owner himself is what placed this in the "scam" category.
7816  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is it possible to day trade bitcoin and altcoins? on: November 21, 2020, 09:43:00 AM
Traders actually love the cryptocurrency markets due to the volatility; as with bigger moves, the potential rewards are high.. but so are the risks.

Completely up to you what route you're picking. But for most people that have no idea how to trade, DCA is the obvious way to go. https://dcabtc.com/
7817  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: First it was Coinbase, now its Poloniex - unexpected downtime during BTC upswing on: November 21, 2020, 09:35:36 AM
Exactly. As for Polo, this is the first time right? so we can't really compare them to Coinbase which has a history already. Polo should learn from their mistakes here so as not to be synonymously with downtimes and whatnot during bitcoin spikes. They don't want to have the title taken away from Coinbase wouldn't it?  Smiley

Not really. There just has been one instance like 7 months ago: https://cointelegraph.com/news/mysterious-poloniex-downtime-prompts-community-frustration

And a few more times in the previous years.
7818  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: First it was Coinbase, now its Poloniex - unexpected downtime during BTC upswing on: November 21, 2020, 09:16:48 AM
Coinbase has been notoriously known for going down after significant price rises, that it's pretty much a meme in crypto Twitter lol. Though it makes complete sense due to the spikes up in traffic, it's still mind boggling how an exchange as big as Coinbase still doesn't get their crap ready LOL.
7819  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What will be the Best UseCase of VC or Bitcoin? on: November 21, 2020, 05:23:28 AM
It's really subjective. The "best" use case will completely depend on why you actually personally need it. You use bitcoin as an inflation hedge? Then that's probably the best use-case for you. You like using bitcoin for payments? Then that's probably the best use-case for you. You like having self sovereignty and total control over your money? Or maybe you just like the privacy aspects of Bitcoin? Or maybe you just don't trust central banks? Etc etc.
7820  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: how add security to our bitcoin ? on: November 21, 2020, 03:55:56 AM
Coinbase seems to be one of the "better" types of exchanges as they haven't really been hacked as far as I know. ...yet

If you're smart enough to use a computer, you're probably smart enough to learn how to have self custody over your funds and properly secure them: https://NotYourKeys.org
