Are you teaching others or yourself?
Everyone knows how to do it with gambling, there's no need to teach because this kind of thing keeps repeating itself in different threads.

Well gambling is for fun but they are only looking for finances here so it is a foolishness especially spending money that should be used for other things such as education or other needs, people who are too hopeful means they are addicted.
I know what to do with gambling, so it doesn't cause any problems for me.
862  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Few reasons why people are hesitant to buy or HODL bitcoin/Crypto on: October 02, 2023, 08:56:05 AM
1. Restrictions from the government and regulators who keep on threatening that they may ban bitcoin or crypto in general anytime, imposing an unjustly ridiculous tax on trading and withdrawal literally leaving us with loss even if we make a profitable trade. What if a situation arises wherein we cannot withdraw even if the value of bitcoin increases as it will be of no use.
Some countries have banned bitcoin but people can still use bitcoin in any transaction including withdrawing funds, meaning there is no strict regulation from the government and they are just trying to prevent the spread through the ban, while I believe bitcoin is still operating by some users they are still free to use bitcoin.

2. We need to earn a lot before hodling as most of the users in this forum are joining campaigns where the payment is not even guaranteed especially bounty campaigns so I hope you understand the financial situation of people which is due to unequal wealth distribution created by corrupt government and this can be broken when people start earning more through various source of freelancing instead of 9 AM -6 PM job which has made them slave and only once a person has a good amount of at least $100-$200 (this might be little for us but for people from certain geo region this is way more) they can invest and hodl or trade. 
If you only rely on forums to earn bitcoin it is not enough, other sources are also very important for additional income in order to add your investment to bitcoin, I think that if you can get on the forum it means that it will not be a big burden on your monthly income, I think other sources of income are needed.

3. We need to buy in dip or at the peak of a bearish market if we want to buy and hodl for at least a few years, we can take the example of people who bought at the peak of bull run during end of 2017 and had to wait till the end of 2020 to meet break even and gain profit but many end up selling due to panic and fuds, we need proper channels to educate users to avoid panic selling and build a strong community as a lot of negativity was spread during last bear market which distanced many from crypto.
If you are able to buy it buy dip it is good, especially at the peak of the bearish, sometimes many hesitate to buy when bearish is because of panic fear of falling again, but basically the current price is still good enough to buy, this is still a buy dip even though the price is $28K I think it is still low for them to buy.
863  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Invest in bitcoin and forget the investment on: October 01, 2023, 04:11:16 PM
There is nothing wrong with this suggestion, it is good enough to motivate them, but I would like to ask if everyone can afford to buy bitcoin at once at $27K now? If they use the DCA strategy then it will be done along the way and not buy at $27K even up to $50K when it must be bought because of DCA, what about their journey will it be smooth? Not that easy even though I also always advise them to HODL bitcoin until the bullrun.

$100K is a realistic prediction, sometimes many investors sell midway because they have made a profit even though they are not at the $100K target, that is their choice but again it requires a lot of mentality and strong understanding, I myself feel strong enough even though I will continue to do DCA until the price is high.
864  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: October 01, 2023, 03:55:27 PM
City finally lost in the league and showed that they are normal humans. Although it was a lucky win for Wolves, as they finished the game with only one shot on target and two goals. Sometimes we watch matches like that. One team shot more than 20 times and other defensive team get the win.
Arsenal and Tottenham won. That's good for competition. I don't want to see City to make 10+ points difference and get the title easily. This season we don't see Chelsea, Manchester United or Liverpool in the title race but we watch three team competing for the trophy.
Haha,,,, I thought it was going to be 3-1 but we know Manchester City will have to be unlucky even if they play like they keep attacking while Wolves with few shots are able to win, I said this is quite dramatic, the Manchester duo must lose in the same week.

This season the points will not be too far away it will be close.
Spurs if not only Liverpool players do not come out two people, it will definitely not be a Spurs victory but lucky enough at the end.

Chelsea and Man United will be bottom or middle of the pack? I don't think I'll see them above the top 4, if Liverpool it's still very possible, they lost last night because they were short of players due to red cards.
865  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where are all the Bitcoin naysayers? on: October 01, 2023, 03:27:34 PM
I have to admit that I rarely visit some parts of this forum, but I haven't seen any anti-Bitcoin accounts active recently. Why is that? There are no naysayers left? Lost interest in this forum? Or maybe I'm not attentive enough and they're still among us?  Grin  
A group of anti-bitcoins must exist but they don't want to talk much here because it's clear they will be scorned because here is the majority of bitcoin users, even if they have an anti-bitcoin discussion then their arguments will not be strong maybe they will just shut up and see how we prove ourselves with bitcoin.

Or who used to be anti bitcoin has now become a holder because of halving preparations? Hahaha
I don't see that person coming to the forum again with anti bitcoin and spreading FUD, maybe they already know that bitcoin has grown rapidly until now even though there has been a decline since the ATH in 2021.
Maybe they are not doing in this forum but other forum.
866  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin October Month Performance on: September 30, 2023, 03:12:10 AM
In the upcoming month of October, I think there will be a bit of an aggressive movement in the market, because I have also noticed that in the month of October there is also a change in terms of increasing the value of Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. Especially since there is an upcoming event in the month of October regarding the application of Blacktock in Sec.
Aggressive movement? Do you mean a significant change in price?  Huh
No sure whether we will have a significant movement in Bitcoin price, I don't think the Blacktock will bring significant impact if we still have many FUDs. I don't really understand what Blacktock is, but I feel that FUDs still have higher impacts. The only thing that probably have a big influence is Bitcoin halving, the hype may be started in the early of the next year (not in the next month).

Anyway, there is no guarantee that the previous good history on October will repeat. The current price scheme may be different from the previous cycles. So, I'm not very optimistic about the potential pump in the next month. I prefer to wait for good news related to crypto world, IMO it may have bigger impacts.
Maybe so, but we all look at the annual history of October I wouldn't think of October as being aggressive towards upgrades.
Even if there is an increase it won't be more than 10% which is estimated to be at least $30K in October, but I'm not sure all this is just speculation it may or may not happen.

If you are a holder then there is no need to think about how the price of bitcoin will be in October because there will be no reaction to selling only we buy maybe when the price is high due to the increase next month, I leave it at that even though many people say October is a good recovery for bitcoin.

Remember that FUD will never leave the market, we will see that FUD come again.

Who are you calling an idiot? What is Trump? He is the former president of America and he is also one of the richest people in America, can you believe an idiot can become like that? It seems like you are too influenced by issues in the media that many have hidden interests
Trump is criticized so much that many say idiot in some media, yes this is the political importance behind it, we must that he is not as idiotic as we think because a former president and also a rich man must have abilities in his business. Tongue

I think those are great motivational words and anyone would agree with them. So there is nothing to discuss here except the word idiot you use to demean someone
I agree because it's a motivational word, although there is not much convincing from Trump but we already know enough what is behind the motivational word, let's not think too much about idiots to anyone if we are able to pursue success with many things why should we hate others?

Please provide a source to make this thread even more relevant.

Never heard of the government encouraging them to be responsible, but the government only makes rules about gambling. In fact, there are still pros and cons to its legality and prohibiting it, so there is no encouragement whatsoever from the government unless we ourselves are aware of it.

The government is only responsible for its regulations, if there is a problem with someone who is heavily addicted to gambling then their solution is to go to a psychologist and tell him how to stop gambling.
869  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: Issue with Exodus app on mobile phone (android) on: September 29, 2023, 12:52:49 PM
I have previously used the Exodus wallet and never experienced any problems, but now I don't use it anymore for another reason.
Regarding this problem, I suspect there is a problem with your Android that causes the application not to run properly, this is just a guess, it may not be true.

Then did you try to re-import the seed phrase into the exodus wallet that you reinstalled the app from? Are the results still the same?

If you are still unsure about this wallet, then use another wallet that is more recommended.

Don't know about AlphaBay as an escrow service that deals with private individuals, keep in mind telegram users are full of scams you shouldn't trust.

Are you sure about this user as an escrow service? The name alone is unclear - what could you possibly be promoting by coming to the forum to introduce him?

Clearly these are scammers!
871  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casino is a Games of Chance and Entertainment on: September 29, 2023, 10:58:25 AM
We have seen posts like this several times, even we all know that gambling depends on luck, not expertise or skill if you are lucky you will win.

Don't expect too much from casinos, let alone want to earn there, many have misinterpreted that playing in casinos is a get-rich-quick scheme that mindset is of course wrong that gambling games should be mere entertainment on weekends or days when you want to play and are ready to lose money.

When it comes to casino owners, don't ask anymore, they will definitely make a profit as long as the business is still operating.
872  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Youth Gambling on: September 28, 2023, 09:55:30 PM
There are already regulations in some countries about gambling, some prohibit it - some also limit to the age of teenagers usually at the age of 18+ or 21+ but I know that all of them are now difficult to prevent because of the ease of accessing casinos online anywhere and anytime.

At a young age they still do not have a full sense of responsibility for gambling and they play maybe just to get money quickly, but if it has become an addiction then this will clearly interfere with other plans even to education for the future, this can only be prevented by the closest person to avoid more severe addiction.
873  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why is cryptocurrency illegal in some countries? on: September 28, 2023, 09:25:51 PM
Because they want to be able to control people's money, another factor is that because fiat will be more useful to the state than bitcoin they can regulate everything.

Well the government's concern about bitcoin is because: Volatility, fluctuations, can still be manipulated by the pope, range to money laundering, often committed crimes including hackers maybe that's a factor where the state thinks.
Fully not only that but the government cannot control if it adopts bitcoin full history, the state will also think about the economic impact if its citizens become financially independent because of using bitcoin.

So now it is still very rare for bitcoin as legal tender except for a few countries, but other countries still prohibit it and only for investment assets.
874  Economy / Exchanges / Re: HTX (Huobi) hacked, $8 million lost on: September 28, 2023, 11:50:25 AM
So return the money for 1/20 of the stolen amount with no guarantee of immunity? That is a ridiculous offer, makes us wonder if there are other previous hackers working behind the scenes in these exchanges to secure our assets.
Don't know. Never heard of a hacker being hired to secure customer assets.  Grin
If hackers agree to this offer then what Justin is doing is ridiculous trying to give hackers another chance to get the HTX loophole.  Tongue

#HTX Safe & Secure Since 2013!
Zero Security Incidents Since Inception
Have they updated this news or are they still claiming that they are safe since 2013? I read some reports and found that Huobi cooperated several times to freeze hacked currencies, the last of which was several months ago, so perhaps this was the reason behind the hacking attempt.
If I'll base that on their Facebook page, nothing has changed. They didn't even reported or posted that they were hacked unlike the other exchanges that have been hacked before.

So, they're boasting with that status based on their record where in fact that this has happened and yet they don't want to let their customers and soon-to-be customers know that this hack just happened recently.
It seems that even HTX twitter does not report any hacks unless the CEO himself reports, maybe this is because he wants to cover up so that there is no doubt from users?

Justin said - has established a SAFU fund in anticipation of another attack, they also said they will continue to discuss the security mechanism of the exchange.

That's why they never announced on all HTX social media to prevent the news from spreading widely, even though I know some customers already know that HTX has been hacked and with Justin's ridiculous offer.

[...] a monthly $25 USD Free sports bet
Let me ask... how do you feel about football predictions? Competitions in which the prize is free bets are quite popular on the forum and 20-30 people participate in such competitions every week, so I see this as an excellent opportunity to attract new users. I think users will agree with me and join the discussion.
Yep this will be interesting I am happy if CasinoRoyale with soccer predictions maybe I will also have the opportunity to play sportsbook here, in addition to winning from soccer predictions. LOL

Some casinos celebrate soccer prediction rounds especially now that the Champion League will start in a few days this will attract many users especially sports betting lovers.

The strategy you say is a very general strategy and applies to everything or all assets that have value, such as Bitcoin. But what we have to understand is that not everyone can get the lowest possible price and sell at the highest possible price, except for people who continue to monitor the market with sufficient capital preparation when they want to buy at a low price.
It's easy to say but difficult to do, this strategy looks easy in reality it's not that easy, sometimes when the price while going down a lot of people are waiting to go down even more and vice versa when they are going to sell - It's not as easy as what is imagined.

And for investments such as property, Gold, Silver and Platinum, things are slightly different from Bitcoin investments because investors usually choose investments such as property, Gold, Silver and Platinum to maintain the value of their money so that it does not experience more depreciation. Whereas in Bitcoin, it is more about investing for large profits with a fairly balanced level of risk so that every investor must have sufficient patience when placing their money into Bitcoin.
The assets mentioned can be said to be stable, the annual profit can still be calculated at a maximum of 5-10% so only people who do not know bitcoin are usually the average of them choosing this property and assets.
Bitcoin - High risk - High return maybe you are quite familiar with it bitcoin also has many factors why prices go down or up there are many things associated including fomo and hype, so you have to understand a little stronger in the fundamentals.

Voting > The thread title does not match the narrative.

You're saying all addicted gamblers will engage in drugs and alcohol? How do you know when someone will be more severely damaged than that? Not all do that even some addicted gamblers don't get involved in drugs or alcohol they are just addicted to more money drains and very rarely get involved with these.

Then you compare gambling to trading, as if trading is easier to make money but in reality it's harder and more risky than investing which you can only hold.

Could you say trading is easy because you made $80 in two days? I'm not sure about that story.
880  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Mixin Network hacked - $200 Million lost on: September 27, 2023, 09:38:34 AM
There's been an update on this issue: The Mixin network's founder Feng Xiaodong has announced via a livestream that every customer who had funds on their network has surely lost 50% of it[1], according to him they are trying to recover the stolen funds, but it is very difficult at the moment. He went on to say that as for the other 50% of their funds, mixin network is going to issue "bonds tokens" for the customers to claim, and the platform would repurchase it from them in the future. From this news i think we can say users of mixin safe have probably lost 100% of the funds they had in the platform, and i know it sounds cliché, but not your keys, not your coins has to be repeated again and surely not for the last time.
[1] https://www.cryptotimes.io/mixin-network-founder-admits-50-assets-are-safe/
I haven't seen any official statement except on Twitter recently there was a tweet about the problem, Mixin team said 'the loss is not as big as expected' Meaning there is still a chance for customer funds to be returned? I guess it's hard...
The link about the statement of Mixin founder - Feng Xiaodong leads to Twitch without any video.
While on Twitter Mixin will take responsibility for this loss with action but still don't understand if this is 50% of customer funds will be returned or full.

Quote
Regarding the asset losses, we can only take responsibility through action besides apologizing. At the same time, being responsible has always been Mixin's attitude. Specific reimbursement rules still need some time.
