Trading is risky like gambling and it should not be seen as a job.
Do we have stop losses in gambling as well like it is in trading?  Grin

I still believe Gambling and Trading are not the same. Gambling is perfectly for fun and entertainment for those who have some money to blow off. If you get into gambling thinking you will be earning some daily, weekly or monthly income, then you are going to be f##Ked

Trading on the other side can be a very decent "job". I mean, look at all those historical stock trading giants and corporations. They made or make money, not by trading for fun or entertainment, like someone who enters a casino in Las Vegas without knowing how the night will end.

Stake signature campaign has of late been paying in USDT and was consequently moved to the bounty board by the mods since they are no longer a bitcoin paying service. Perhaps it's time to include it on the list @tranthidung?

Any thoughts on that?
It's the right thing to do.

Quote
I understand the logic, but I wouldn't be surprised if other major campaigns also decided to switch to stablecoins (due to the unpredictability of BTC fees), in which case, either Mitchell would have to change the policy for his Overview thread,
Why would he? The list is strictly for Bitcoin paying signature campaigns

or we could need a new summary (perhaps in the Altcoins section) that includes all types of campaigns.
That lists already exists. Maybe it just needs to be updated

Signature campaigns paid in stable coins/ top altcoins like LTC

I regretted very much why I didn't take a risk. If you want to do something, you have to take a risk, nothing happens without a risk.
Sounds rather contradictory. You told your bother to invest in Bitcoin, but you didn't invest in it yourself, and now you are regretting. It means you also never believed in Bitcoin to begin with and only got to realize that you missed an opportunity when thing are now looking well
86  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why is United States going against custodial lightning wallets? on: April 28, 2024, 07:07:23 PM
The lightning wallet provider will cease to provide services to US people on May 3.
How?
What would stop a US citizen to go here:
https://github.com/ACINQ/phoenix/releases
download the apk and run it?
Perhaps they will go after the GitHub profile with its repositories as well and have it banned, like they did with Tornado Cash. Those GitHub chaps are cowards too, if that's the correct wording. Maybe they could host the files on decentralized alternative platforms to GitHub, but it will certainly reduce their popularity by miles.
87  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why is United States going against custodial lightning wallets? on: April 27, 2024, 07:52:03 PM
I'll put them somewhere in the middle. They claim to be non custodial on their website and have done so for many years, but to function as a lightening network wallet they do have some levels of custody.
I am not so familiar with the lightning network. One time I wanted to get accustomed to it, then I realized that one had to open and close channels which  could be costly or something along those lines. I gave up

Could it be that the rest of the wallet is noncustodial, but then the part that has lightning network integration is custodial to some degree?
88  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Samourai Wallet seized by the feds on: April 27, 2024, 04:58:08 PM
There were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq prior to the US invading that country and taking down Saddam, right?  Right, guys??

Governments are the biggest liars, the biggest thieves (with banks in second place), and unfortunately since they make the laws and enforce them and instill fear in their citizens' hearts, they get to do whatever the fuck they want to. 
Absolutely right! Everything about Government makes me want to puke. From their policies, propaganda and enforcement. If only there was a world where Governments are illegal. Maybe that would be a much better world for freedom

Governments are basically a cartel living off people's hard-earned money through tax and still use the same revenue to threaten, imprison and kill their own Citizens.

They hate everything they don’t control & it might get worse eventually. Don’t let this kind of thing scare you away from self custody though, they can’t take Bitcoin off you if they aren’t able to tell where it is. I hear there are a lot of unfortunate boating accidents happening lately.
Next they will be coming for and seizing servers of any noncustodial wallet because they are not KYCing their users  Grin
89  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Small general trading place? [I wouldn’t know as I’m fairly new to this] on: April 27, 2024, 04:23:06 PM
Hello people!

I would say I’m fairly new, so my knowledge of recourses regarding crypto are low. I was wondering if there is a general place where people trade small amounts of crypto. Like I was thinking about just purchasing 1$ worth of Bitcoin or Litecoin, but I’m not sure where to start. At the moment I don’t have much crypto in the first place, mine only values around 1cent, so if something big happens with a positive effect on the currency, the value would hardly increase, at least I think so. Again, I’m fairly new to this subject.
The minimum order you can make in most exchanges that I know is $10. I am not sure if there are any they offer lower amounts. The good news is that almost all these trading platforms offer demo trading in their apps and websites (Binance, Bybit, phemex, MEXC etc.). Since you are trying to learn the basics of trading, Demo trading should be good. The next step is using small amounts of real money to get self-discipline and keep your emotions in check when trading.
90  Other / Meta / Re: Mixers to be banned on: April 27, 2024, 03:51:08 PM
Yes, administration has taken some measurements and all I am saying is that it should be understandable for everyone. If we don't want this forum and its owners to be haunted for the sake of additional income that mixers signature campaigns provide, then we should be okay with the rule that includes banning of bitcoin mixers. This forum is still pretty much a very welcoming for freedom of speech, only mixers are excluded and there are very fair reasons for that.
Kind of weird how mixers are banned, but scam is allowed here  Tongue

Welcome to a new world  Grin

Can you please explain to me why Epochtalk was even launched?
You can find some of the reasons in this post - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=523070.0 (That was a decade, 1 month and 1 week ago  Shocked )

I am a little newbie on this forum compared to many people. By the way it doesn't really make any sense, admin starts a new forum software development, probably puts some money in it and hires developers, then abandons it in the middle development process and doesn't even update the SMF. I am not critiquing theymos, I am just curious about that.
Just like you and many people, I think that this forum will be like this until theymos hesitates to pay server expanses.
He gave these reasons, but that was 5 years ago. Perhaps it's the last post I know where he talked about the new forum software progress. Maybe we will wait some two or three more years for another update on the progress.
The things blocking a transition from the current software to the new software are:
 - There hasn't been enough testing. I think that immediately after transition, a variety of small missed features, bugs, and performance issues would crop up. As a result, if the transition happened now (which is technically possible!), I'd expect the post-transition user experience to be poor for months while these things are fixed, which I don't want.
 - I am the only bitcointalk.org sysadmin and on-demand programmer, and I'm used to the current software. Furthermore, I need to frequently make changes to the current software, but each change I make might require alterations to Epochtalk, which is problematic.
 - The current PHP software, while ugly and sub-optimal in many ways, performs well, especially since I have extensively modified the backend to add features and improve performance. So I don't feel much urgency.
 - The data-transition procedure still has a few known minor bugs.
91  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Miners revenues drop to the lowest in years as Runes fomo fades away on: April 27, 2024, 02:41:07 PM
Price can increase after the halving but Conspiracy theory like price will double after the halving, as compensation to miner loss in block subsidy reward, it is untrue. Bitcoin miners have their income not only from Bitcoin block subsidy but also from Bitcoin transaction fee.
How is it a conspiracy theory when it has happened some months every other time halving has taken place historically?

In the lastest block, Subsidy + fees = ‎3.491 BTC ~ $220,549. That can easily turn into $440K when the Bitcoin price doubles, as it usually does during the bull run.

Before the halving, Subsidy + fees were averaging between 6.5 to 7 BTC per block. Tell me how much that was in fiat value when BTC was around $20K - 30K?

You can't deny that the bitcoin price uptrend also helps so much. That's why bear markets are a nightmare to miners.
92  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Miners revenues drop to the lowest in years as Runes fomo fades away on: April 26, 2024, 11:57:42 PM
What are the implications for this, are home miners going to get wiped out by huge companies that have access to investors capital and cheap electricity?
I don't think so. This would have happened a long time ago if it was the case

Quote
Would that be a danger to centralization?
Nope

Quote
Or are miners going to try and manipulate the fees and the mempool creating fake scarcity of space and driving the fees up to compensate for what they have lost?
Can they even do that as I saw people in the mining section saying ?
In theory, an uptrend in the Bitcoin price should be able to compensate for the drop in the halving of the mining rewards. thge bitcoin price in 2017 isn't the same as it is now, is it?
I don't think manipulation is possible.
93  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Has anyone tried Xeggex ? on: April 26, 2024, 11:36:54 PM
It's an exchange for shitcoins.

It's mostly popular with newly launched minable coins. That's how I got to know about it. About the quality if it's service, I am not sure but since it's a low-key exchange. Proceed with caution. Maybe send in small amounts to be exchanged to test it out.

I was so excited on a yet another no KYC instant exchange only for the excitement to die down so fast because it's just a telegram bot. How can you talk about complete anonymity and telegram in one sentence?

Have you looked through their privacy policy?
95  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: We should not rely on centralized privacy providers on: April 26, 2024, 10:49:43 PM
If you want to avoid centralized mixers, then you can use CoinJoin protocols that is trustless
Last thing I remember, there was one wallet that uses conjoins, but then a good deal of privacy leaning members don't trust it because, there is talk of zkSNACKs its coordinator blacklisting "tainted coins"

How is that decentralized and trustless? Educate me  Smiley
96  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you need help? on: April 25, 2024, 11:52:43 PM
But all people are different
For example,an acquaintance of mine beat his wife in a fit of anger because he invested all his money from the sale of his mother's house in LUNA
Now he's left without a wife and has become an alcoholic
All people have different life situations and you can't put them on public space,because it's personal
All I am saying is that share tips of how people can cope with trading loss stress for a start. I didn't say you post people's personal experiences in public. After reading through what you posted, some people can then inbox you once they confide in you.

I have some newbies PM for advice regarding trading once in a while. It's not that I am an expert in trading, but some of them see my posts and replies and feel that I have some experience with certain aspects of trading that I can share with them.

Thanks for digging dip. This might need further investigation. I think there is a huge farm of accounts taking loans and defaulting them using less valuable accounts. This people are going to make lending business unprofitable and impossible in this forum is not checked.

Let me see if I can get more details.

When purchasing LTC tokens (Litecoin), there are several important considerations to consider:

1. Choose a formal trading platform: Make sure to choose a trading platform with a good reputation and user reviews in the market. Avoid using platforms that are informal or have security vulnerabilities to prevent funds from being defrauded or lost.

2. Account security: When registering an account on the trading platform, be sure to set a strong password and enable security features such as two-factor authentication. At the same time, protect your account information and private keys to avoid leaking them to others.

3. Understand the market conditions: Before purchasing LTC tokens, it is very important to understand the current market conditions and trends. Understand the price fluctuations and potential risks of LTC tokens by viewing price charts, trading volumes, and news information.

4. Transaction fees: When trading LTC tokens, you need to pay attention to transaction fees and other fees. Make sure you understand the trading platform's fee standards and make a fee estimate before trading to avoid affecting your profits.

5. Comply with laws and regulations: When purchasing LTC tokens, be sure to comply with local laws and regulations. Understand the legality and regulatory policies of digital currency transactions to avoid being involved in illegal activities or facing legal risks.

6. Fund security: When recharging and withdrawing money, be sure to choose a safe and reliable payment method, such as using officially recommended payment channels or bank transfer. Avoid using unsafe third-party payment platforms or conducting unsafe transaction operations.

7. Diversify investments: Diversify your funds into different digital currencies and projects to reduce the risk of the overall investment portfolio. Don’t focus all your funds on LTC tokens, but make a sensible asset allocation.

8. Continuous learning: The digital currency market is changing rapidly, and new technologies and projects are constantly emerging. As an investor, you need to maintain a continuous learning attitude and understand the latest market dynamics and technological advances to make more informed investment decisions.

In short, when purchasing LTC tokens, it is very important to pay attention to choosing a formal trading platform, account security, understanding market conditions, transaction fees, compliance with laws and regulations, fund security, diversified investment and continuous learning. Following these precautions can help you invest in digital currencies more safely and wisely.

Could you please create a thread sharing tips on how people with depression due to trading can cope, for a start?
Maybe members will then believe that you have good intentions. This is the internet, there are people with ill intentions on all corners of it. So if some members are paranoid, you shouldn't be made or blame them.

You also have another forum where there are no restrictions for discussions about mixers. Link
I noticed that their ANN thread in that other forum was locked. Apparently they wanted to open another thread, which never happened ( It was probably their plan to convince julerz12 to keep it locked). Maybe you can advise julerz12 who opened their thread to keep it open such that people can report an ongoing scam under that thread. Otherwise, some people will never know what's happening.

I am not sure if there is a red trust and flag system over there as well.
