Congrats to Alex Bublik! He won his 2nd title (first one in Montpellier back in 2022) this week. And the competition was fierce in Halle: Struff, Zverev, Rublev... well-deserved win!  |

The best method is definitely to try to avoid debt at all or minimize it. Living beyond your means will bring you into trouble. In case you're already balls deep in debt, this method could potentially be a lifesaver. |

Nope, just estimations. Also, if this question refers to the uptrend of the market, then another no. Although there would be an increase with market prices before rhe estimated date of halving, but it won't be continuous in an instant. The market price would more likely move sideways due to high volume so manage the risk still.  So I recently came across this Blockchair website, and saw that they had a Bitcoin halving countdown chart. It is actually able to predict the exact time and date of the next halving. I'm curious to know if any of you have used similar tool and if the predictions have proven to be correct. the Bitcoin halving usually happen every 4 years approximately after every 210,000 blocks has been successfully mined, the last which took place on May 11, 2020 and we are expecting the next halving to happen in 2024, but do we know the exact month, day and time? As Bitcoiners, It's very essential for us to have reliable sources for predicting and preparing for this event. so, are these predictions correct? Well, judging by my experience from previous halvings these halving countdowns are not 100% correct. They do give an approximate idea on when halving is going to happen though. I think it's pretty safe to use to find out an approximate date. Yes, also with what will happen. The idea that there will be a huge price increase is just because of what happened on the previous halving but realistically speaking, there's no guarantee of it and also, to when will the market price start to move. Just like what I've said, the price won't jump in a blink of an eye. In fact, most of the times we're going up in pulses or bursts. Most probably we're not going to reach or exceed ATH immediately but eventually we will. Something like a leg up into $50k area then some dump to $35-38k and the another burst into the ATH area etc etc... |

They obviously took the cash money from inside of the ATM after they cracked it open. The design of the ATM is not very successful btw it looks more like a tin can with thin metal and probably not too heavy too.  |

Why is money at hand difficult to hold? I usually find it difficult to keep track of money anytime I have cash at hand, I make plans to hold money, but It never stays because something always demands the money, it is even so bad now that money kept in my account is also now being affected due to expenses. This is not something that happens to only me, I know that because of how money can easily be spent, many people now decide to avoid having cash, avoid taking ATM cards from their banks and also avoid activating USSD or internet banking, but is that really a long term solution? I blame myself a lot for spending so much and being irresponsible with money, but in your opinion, do you think that the soceity is contributing to the high and many expenses making money not to stay or is it just a bad habit I have?
To me it looks like there are several possible reasons and also solutions. Inflation and price rises is one of the reasons. You have to spend more on utilities, groceries, rent, insurance etc... Secondly, you're living beyond means obviously. You have to learn how to control your expenses or look for a better job (or some side hustles). |

I like the idea of only having 21 million bitcoins. Bitcoins get lost all the time, lost private keys. In time we will have fewer and fewer bitcoins, currently it is thought 3-4 million bitcoins are already lost. This makes me sad. I propose a redistribution method: >If an address did not have any activity in let's say the last 100 years the address is considered lost and the bitcoins are free to be mined in the next block. To prevent losing your bitcoins you make sure to transfer them to a new address every 100 years (I am not aware of any other method of "proving" you still have access to an address). P.S. This would be a change in the consensus mechanism, I know  P.S.S. I am aware of Satoshi's view on this "lost coins are a donation to everyone". Yes, but 4 million is a lot, do we want Bitcoin to still be used 1000 years from now? If this trend continues most if not all bitcoins would have been lost by then. I don't think it's necessary. Bitcoin is perfectly divisible: you can buy satoshis, or even smaller units can be introduced if needed. Lost coins contribute to the value of the remaining ones. Bitcoin ownership shouldn't be questioned. What if the person is dead but his family finds his/her laptop years later and the coins have already been "freed"? Will that be fair? |

There are talks among the world's major central banks to begin the creation of their own digital currencies (Central Bank Digital Currencies for that matter). The launch of Bitcoin, and the widespread popularity of "De-Fi", has led governments to act fast before they're left behind the game. They know they can't beat Bitcoin, so they will try to be in-par with it by launching digital currencies of their own. The average person won't notice any difference with the new digital cash system, as everything would be the same as using a credit/debit card. I'm beginning to question whenever CBDCs will be able to replace paper money for good, or will it co-exist with the old system? After all, credit/debit cards didn't manage to replace paper money when they launched. For being in the 21st century, I'd say paper money should be phased out as soon as possible. Everything should turn digital, as we live in a digital society. How long do you think it will take for paper money to be phased out for good? Will CBDCs be able to replace not only paper money but also credit/debit cards? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.  Yes, I think paper money is going to be phased out at some point globally. In some countries, like Sweden most transactions are digital already now and paper money is quite rare. On the other hand, in countries like Germany or the US cash is still king, there still are many places where cards are not accepted. |

Half of the rich people keep continue to swim in fame and wealth because of their occupied landed properties. If you own a land, housing estate you can be sure living great but this wealth are mostly control by political leaders and BD individuals......if you're blessed enough begins to occupy property's that can sure your next generation... In my country Nigeria if you don't have any of this properties forget yourself, you will end up making life mortgage and tenancy. Land never depreciates it keeps buying higher that's why I considered it the best investment. What do you think?
Land is good investment most of the times. There are some exceptions like some overpriced areas where land price is already unreasonably high. Then it can go down eventually. You have to do your own research, search for some land plots in areas where it's likely to become more expensive over time. And, of course, you need lots of money for the initial investment. |

Yes, like the title above, we all know the halving time is will always full of drama, this always happens at that time, but I don't know why many people forget and still spread FUD everywhere. If they understand that and know it always happens on every 4 years, they shall be calm and relaxed to face SEC, Binance, or anything drama.
I hope this lesson gives you an important point. They create this to dump Bitcoin, they do this to scare you, they do this to buy Bitcoin at a cheap price, and After buying with a lot of money, you already know that today Bitcoin price is pumped like crazy, right?
So, I just want to say; Don't forget, The drama could happen again and repeat until the halving time. you must be strong and patient. you will definitely win if you face it with a quiet and strong hand if happen again in the near future.
Cheers
As an early adopter I don't think halvings and FUD are connected in any way. The "black swan" event normally happens months or even years before halving. Normally, the price right before or after halving has gone up significantly already. I think we have witnessed the lowest point this cycle already. |

If you have been reading the news lately, you would know the story about OceanGate submarine that failed and killed all people onboard. The cause of this tragic incident is that the creator of the submarine chose to ignore regulations. He believed that they are only in place to stifle innovation and that he knows better than the others and can't be wrong. OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush said in 2021 he knew he'd 'broken some rules' by making the Titanic submersible out of carbon fiber and not pure metal: 'You're remembered for the rules you break'lThis should be a cautionary tale to people who dream about society without government and its regulations. Imagine if someone makes an "experimental and innovative" nuclear reactor that explodes and gives radiation sickness + cancer to hundreds of thousands. Or someone makes an "experimental and innovative" dam that collapses and floods houses. Invisible hand of the market won't be able to undo the damage or prevent it in the future from repeating again. Well, I partly agree. Breaking rules if you're risking people's lives is obviously not ok. If Stockton Rush would use his submersible himself that would be fine. Space rockets, planes, submarines all were risky inventions. Satoshi Nakamoto and Bitcoin also broke some rules but he didn't hurt anyone. Bitcoin is revolutionary, it also ignores some regulations, so what? Ban Bitcoin? |

English is not my native language, but I have a good command of the English language. I am writing what I think.
How to center myself in 2023
How times have changed! Or is it not that bad?
In the past, I used to be active on these types of forums. When I say "in the past," I mean between 2010-2019.
I sold VCCs (Virtual Credit Cards). I helped people with account verification. I sold all kinds of digital products, not just on Bitcoin forums but everywhere. Various interesting tasks that we all know on this forum. It was a nice extra income, and I was fully immersed in that world alongside my regular job. It always appealed to me because it was not illegal—a nice side hustle.
I stepped away from that world when I started following politics in 2019. A party came into the picture with a program that resonated with me. I was 39 years old at the time, and I started a YouTube channel as a rookie because I wanted to contribute to my home country. It felt like a calling to me. I really wanted to make a difference and not spend my whole life working for a boss when I could do something more.
I love my small Western European country where I was born. I was, and still am, someone who stands for Common Sense. Politically, I used to call myself "right-wing conservative." Nowadays, I see things completely differently. I believe that when you join a political party or label yourself with a political ideology, you register yourself for something with a set of rules and norms. Because if you are right-wing conservative, you absolutely cannot have progressive ideas, right? So, by definition, you are not being yourself because you conform to the rules of that political ideology.
Anyway, I started a YouTube channel, and I noticed that many people felt the same way I did. Some people joined me, and I ended up in a completely different world.
We were labeled as "conspiracy theorists" when we asked questions about uncontrolled mass immigration in Western Europe. It just didn't make sense. Why would you let a continent be flooded with people from all corners of the world without control? I am certainly in favor of a good immigration policy. People who genuinely need help should be assisted. That's only logical for us wealthy countries to do. At the very least. But it should be for those who truly need it, not opportunistic seekers. Create a good policy, ensure quality assistance for those in need, and as a sovereign country, we expect you to contribute something here. Actually, we don't expect anything from you. We just want to make sure you are a good person. Color, race, and origin should not matter.
But even discussing something like this was immediately dismissed as racism. That didn't make sense to me.
For me, an adventure began, and I started the YouTube channel and, six months later, an alternative news and opinion website. Then came Corona. For me, it is still a created phenomenon intended to harm humanity. I earned income through my YouTube Partnership. The channel grew to over 35k subscribers, which was considered a reasonable voice for our country at the time. My YouTube channel was censored in October. Any criticism of Corona and the, back then, upcoming vaccines was not tolerated. You were literally kicked out if you went against the mainstream narrative.
You see it all happening with your own eyes, and it is designed in such a way that those of us who see it happen are called conspiracy theorists. Of course, there are wild stories and numerous conspiracy theories surrounding Corona that go too far. But hey, allowing ourselves to be injected for what exactly?
The numbers globally showed that the average age of death from Corona was 82 years, and over 90% had underlying serious health conditions. From day one, you could easily calculate that there wasn't much to worry about here, and you had to dig deeper to see that you were being fooled. And even if there is "something" going on, it's not as they want to present it to us. They want that shot in our arms. And we questioned that. And others did too. And that was not allowed. You were simply silenced. As if you don't exist. "Shut up!" But they couldn't censor the website, so we continued, and the website is still there.
Bizarre years. And suddenly, you get a slap in the face and realize that you also participated in this whole hype. An eye-opener.
Now I'm coming back to look into my "old world." With all the developments like AI, Corona, the almost non-existent privacy, is that old world still there?
Can you still do the same things as before, just as a free individual?
I feel very.... confused. Does this makes sense to some of you?
Interesting "stream of consciousness" type of post but I fail to see any reason behind it... why exactly you're sharing this with forum users? Looking for some followers or like-minded people? Looking for sympathy? You seem to be confused? |

1. Is it correct to assume that each halving will result in a 50% reduction in rewards?
( If current reward is .0003 BTC, reward after halving will be .00015 ) ?
2. Is there a good calculator for ROI and estimated rewards ( per day ) that calculates 5-10 years in the future or allows an input for estimated future value of BTC ?
3. Will BlackRock and the central bankers be able to fork BTC into a proof of stake coin? ( How are changes to BTC created ?)
Thanks,
Ron
1. Yes, each halving results in miner reward being cut in half. 2. No, it's impossible to calculate ROI (you mean ROI for mining right?). 3. I guess it's possible if they will acquire at least 51% of all Bitcoin hashing power. |

According to world bank 1.7 billion people ranging from 200 million in China and India each, 100 million range in Pakistan and Indonesia, 45 to 65 million range in Mexico, Bangladesh, Nigeria etc. This shows that a lot of rural environments have no bank. Real estate, renting a building, is one strong marketing technique used by banks to garner customers in a place. And these stats proves that banks can't reach out to all rural environment. Bitcoin on the other hand, requires only a smart phone and internet connection to send and receive bitcoin anywhere in the world; no buildings needed. It also opens a portal for users in high corrupt countries, 68.9% of 180 countries, to keep their funds safe. In Sudan for instance, Government once forced into people's houses to seize and destroy their treasures. Hence with 1.7 billion people staying unbanked, added to the increase of people who don't rely on banks, Bitcoin provides them with numerous options why they should use bitcoin for different purposes like sending money to relatives in different countries at a very low fee. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/370892944_Bitcoin_Is_Full_of_SurprisesOf course it's a huge possibility for Bitcoin but I fear things are more complicated than bank buildings. First, Bitcoin should be accepted as legal tender and companies start paying their employees in Bitcoin. Bitcoin should also be accepted pretty much everywhere too. Otherwise, I doubt this is going to work. |

In the Halle Open, Rublev winning against Bautista is much expected. Same as that Rublev won the match in direct sets 6-3 6-4.
Match between Zverev and Bublik was in favour of Bublik from the beginning and he won it in direct sets 6-3 7-5. The finals going to be close fight, however it looks like Rublev have advantage. Bublik will never let it go out of his hands, because this is the first time in 2023 he had reached the finals.
So the finals are set: ATP Halle Bublik v Rublev ATP London De Minaur v Alcaraz (De Minaur defeated Rune in straight sets 6:3 7:6 while Alcaraz won his semi-final versus Korda 6:3 6:4) Some surprising results from the qualis: ATP Eastbourne Cerundolo lost to Mansouri 4:6, 4:6 ATP Mallorca Verdasco lost to Kotov 1:6, 6:7, Vesely lost to Harris in 3 sets. But the biggest surprise was Zverev's defeat in semi-final of Halle of course. Proves Sascha is still not ready for the top level action yet. |

- Armored Personnel Carrier BTR-4. Used along all front lines. During the defense of Mariupol, the city defenders destroyed both terrorist manpower as well as tanks and BMPs using the BTR-4.
Ukraine was trying to sell these to Iraq, but only managed to produce and send to the buyer 100 vehicles out of 420. The Iraqi military were not very happy with the APCs they received, claiming that the vehicles they received were "very old, rusty and generally unusable". 42 units were returned to Ukraine as they had cracked hulls!!! Out of another batch of 88 APCs the Iraqis managed to start only 56 vehicles and only 34 were able to move. I really hope the Ukrainian military uses as few of these as possible as it's not safe to drive a rusty cracked APC along the frontlines. All in all, all of these mentioned arms are very rare. We get to hear names like Bayraktar, HIMARS, Leopard etc all the time but none of these Ukrainian arms. |

It's Bitcoin trust worthy for investment? Cus have tried many platform but all failed and this my last hope... I was introduced into it.
I swear Bitcoin can be trusted more than the bank you keep your money in. More than any currency of any country in the world. You are very lucky you were introduced to Bitcoin now, you are still early. Btw, what were your previous unfortunate investments? |
