exercise is a workout
slavery is where you get nothing in return of benefit or nothing of any valid equal worth of your effort
They get food as a reward. Just a joke you are very right about this.  Grin

I was only thinking work should stress the body, that is why recreational activities not stressing the body and despite being work, but you give me more insights into this as someone can also exercise oneself for good health reasons. Feeling cool in everything we do makes these recreational, but feeling it is work makes it stressful, that is why being at work makes us feel stresssed.

Will the economic fallout from covid create a perfect storm?
There was a time during the covid 19 pandemic in March 20120, the price of btc dropped abruptly from $10500 to as low as $3600. But, later, the price increase and  reached over $11000 with a very strong support. I do not see any storm coming this year again but for the price to increase, even if the increase is not abruptly. 

Will more adoption be significant
In the world, how many people are having bitcoin now?
How many bitcoin ATMs are we having? This answer you question. People get to know and embrace or people yet to embrace bitcoin are so many, bitcoin will still increase in price and the increase will be significant.

What are peoples thoughts and expectations
My expectation is that bitcoin adoption will increase, this will increase bitcoin marketcap and also market price will increase proportionally. Bitcoin price will still get to new all time high. But that does not mean that bitcoin will not increase and decrease in price but the increase over long time will surpass the decrease.

This is great in studying the charts used in trading, be it crypto, forex or stock trading, the line, bar and Japanese candles still are the most important part to learning how to trade, but indicators has to be learnt also.

In addition to what the OP has posted, beginners learning how to trade should also know that trading is risky and lead to either gain or loss, it has to be done without greediness and with patience. Some new traders trade with low quality mind set with no discipline but believing in luck, that is why it is not surprising new traders often lose because they do not consider these criteria.

Lastly, like I said above, these analyzing part of trading is very important but indicators like RSI, Bollinger bands and both Relative and exponential moving average should not be left out as they are also very important to analyze crypto market.
8364  Other / Ivory Tower / Are recreational activities work or not on: August 04, 2020, 09:09:51 PM
It is now usual to see people saying recreational activities are not work but to ease ourselves, but I think they are not right because when I was in the secondary school back then, in Physics I was taught work.

What is work
Work is a force that moves through a distance over time.

Work= Force x distance/time

During recreational activities, we apply these three questions because running, swimming and many other recreation activities require you to use force to move through a distance over time which is actually work.

In my conclusion, many recreational activities still required work which mean many recreational activities is even work on its owns. So, there are some works that ease the body while some stress the body. I will like your opinion to tell if I am right. Can you also specify the ones that are not truly work.

Scam can be deemed moral to scammers but not moral to the world, it is very common in countries with high level of unemployment. Scam has started even before using fiat digitally or before the creation of bitcoin. We have to be careful not to be scammed and we need to learn how to avoid scam. I have even even created some articles on this forum that I believe could help newbies and people that visit this forum anonymously for not to be scam, you can check it below.

8366  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Replace by fee on bitcoin wallet on: August 03, 2020, 05:33:54 PM
I am getting familiar with bitcoin wallet day after day, lately I learned about fee pumping which is also known as replace by fee, it happens in a way bitcoin transaction that is not confirmed can be included early in a block by pumping the fee. This is a very good feature a wallet can have, two wallets I know that have RBF capability are Bitcoin core and Electrum. They are my best bitcoin online wallets.

I also read about using RBF to reverse back transactions if the transaction have zero confirmation, which means scammers can use it easily to reverse bitcoin sent to someone back into their same wallet.

I am not a scammer but I like to know everything in details about bitcoin and bitcoin wallet for the sake of knowledge.

Can someone use RBF to reverse transaction on bitcoin core and electrum wallet? Or only used to pump fee? Or, it is done by another means?

The world is so much focusing on advance pharmaceutical medicine, leaving traditional ones aside. In the past were strong immunity, the immune system were stronger than today. Normally microorganisms that were mutating and dangerous were still fought potently by the body immune system in the past unlike now,  our immunity is likely to have reduced than before. There are many other things to consider like the modern era emitted smokes and gases, the food we intake, and many other things.

The world governments should also focus on traditional medicine, and also try to tell population how to avoid what can reduce immunity, instead of only focusing on advanced pharmaceutical medicine.
8368  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Faucets - Do people still use it, and are they worthwhile? on: August 03, 2020, 01:39:46 AM
First of all, people thought they make money from faucets but not like that, in every 100% bitcoin you worked for by solving captcha, faucet take 80% or the lion share while you take 20% or a very small share part of it. Millions of people are solving captcha for faucets, and making (faucets) them having money.

I have tried faucets before, all the highest rewards I was paid per hour in the three I tried were 0.00000022 btc which was not actually a good payment.

If this amount can be paid into wallet, it is even another problem until you consolidate the many input amount into one address because the reward is so small.

Imo, faucets are not for making bitcoin again, they are just waste of time.

I noticed one thing about faucets now, they also have gambling sites, you can easily think the bitcoin is small let me gamble with it, it is easy to lose in gambling and you work 100% for them without no any reward after losing to gambling.

There is a "label sync" plugin for electrum which uploads your labels to a server.
This allows you to retrieve them after recovering your wallet with the mnemonic.
I saw this on electrum wallet just now, I read on the electrum that labels, transaction ID and addresses are encrypted before they are sent to the remote server also in addition.

About the privacy, I still think the encryption can still help to some extent.
8371  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: What happened to my electrum wallet on: August 01, 2020, 11:24:13 PM
I've checked ANN thread of 777coins it seems there's no announcement maybe you can check on the official website. If I'm not mistaken you are a participant of 777coins before, isn't it?
You are right, I participated, it was a payment of the work I did (the post I made), I should have checked that, I did not know I will be paid because I left the campaign for another before the payment. Though, I did the weekly required posts completely but I left some days before the weekly payment and I was not expecting anything at all. So, this has been solved with what sheenshan commented above. I appreciate.
8372  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: What happened to my electrum wallet on: August 01, 2020, 10:48:48 PM
Yes, I participated in 777coin campaign, that was my first campaign on this forum before I joined Bitamp. I appreciate your effort.
8373  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: African bitcoin ATMs on: August 01, 2020, 10:38:33 PM
ATMs just another one method to fool people with extremtly high fees. There are so many p2p exchanges, dexs, etc and people are still prefer atms
No, that is not acceptable, it can be more convenient to use bitcoin ATM, the transaction fee is high but you can need cash immediately. Also, bitcoin ATM really helping bitcoin adoption, and it is a good thing. It is good that people like bitcoin ATM. Later, it will even help about bitcoin adoption the more.
8374  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / What happened to my electrum wallet on: August 01, 2020, 09:53:56 PM
I checked my electrum wallet today and I saw three transactions, the three transactions were all made into my account on 15th July.

Txid:
1. 6695e63e160d08812dc42be6fb89544ff8a3893a40943dc4fbfff01a34e007f0

2. 8e14042d099af21ae15a79610ec10adfd4a60a52a503e5e36b7d4ee627e62eef

3. d0eeb888eeea4a1758f0fceb8e12d7d38d7ca02760d9570720710ddc91a65f81

I received a total 0.0015 btc on the same day with the same address. You can use the txid to check.

Hope this is not dust attack? I do not know the sender. But I think dust attack should be with lower amount I will not be able to notice on my wallet balance.

8376  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How bad malware could be on bitcoin wallet devices on: July 31, 2020, 10:19:34 PM
Unprotected sites are ones without padlock and also not displayed as https. It's advisable to aviod such sites as its a suspect of phishing sites that is involved with malware, attaching with virus destroying devices and changes bitcoin addresses.
Security means the connection to the site is safe but that does not mean the site itself is free of malware, there are many sites with the padlock but contain malware. if you see the padlock, then it will be https. Getting antialware is very important and also not click links and ads, I have seen a link/ads from safe sites that will direct someone to malware sites and malware installation unknowingly follows.
8377  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: African bitcointalk community hangout on: July 30, 2020, 10:36:59 PM
imagine somebody telling me the only way person fit buy ethereum Na through FORSAGE, our knowledge fit save those way one be saved,
Good for bringing this up, but for here I no think anyone go fall for scam, btt don teach us how we go dey smart and avoid scammers. But for people wey no dey this forum, ignorance dey their body. I join one group for telegram, for less than 5 minutes, one idiot come add me telling me about trading, the scammers dey tell me say na 24 hours return, that one even dey beyond ignorance if falled for, na greed.
8378  Other / Meta / Re: Hide posts and topics on: July 30, 2020, 01:25:49 PM
I did not say to hide all posts from everyone, but only some of them if you want.
Some people are visiting this forum anonymously without registration, this also makes the forum have importance not to only itself but also to the world, and it is as a result of what they gained from here, hiding function does not make sense, if you can not lock the topic or still not make it available to the whole world, then no need to make the topic imo.
8379  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Kobe Bryant's death has been used for scamming. on: July 30, 2020, 09:05:55 AM
In order to protect your device used for bitcoin wallets, exchanges, bank accounts and other sensitive things, you need to get two devices, one for such sensitive things and will not be used for browsing, no matter how expert how are, if they use their device to browsing, there is possibility of installing malware unknowingly.

Using another device for heavy browsing will be good,  not your sensitive devices. Like having two phones, one for only sensitive things and should only go online for such purposes related to bitcoin wallets or exchanges while the other for browsing and related things.
