What I think is that whales are not controlling Bitcoin, they can't change the nature of the project and it will remain decentralized no matter what. Whales are here to enjoy the market, that is true but being the owner of the entire crypto market. I admit that manipulations occur in the market but if we talk about the control of Bitcoin price, I certainly doubted it.
We have to be aware of the market volatility and the price of Bitcoin will pump or dump normally, not because it was being planned to what will happen next otherwise, Mr. Satoshi had failed.
The whales still manipulated to their liking, but it wouldn't exactly go according to their plan. There will be some mistakes they might make. The control of bitcoin prices is not completely manipulated by whales. We'll see. When bitcoin volatility rises, nothing can stop bitcoin from experiencing bullishness and reaching ATH. The volatility of the bitcoin price is so difficult to control that even Whales would not be able to fully manipulate it. They only apply pressure at the beginning. |

Bitcoin halving is characterised by price boom and this is a general believe of some bitcoiners and members of this forum.
My greatest fear is; what if 2024 halving comes and go without any kind of bull run? Don't you think that there will be a serious problem and panic in the industry?
This is because 2024 halving is the greatest available hype that can move the market. Besides that, I don't see any possible wave that can move Bitcoin to a new ATH. Unless US government will have to make BTC a legal tender.
And you wanted to get rid of BTC at the first opportunity? Once Bitcoin reaches new heights? But what about HODL?  If not for this halving, then for another, BTC will grow. Sooner or later. ~snip~HOLD will save everything, no one does better than HOLD and believe that high price targets will be hit. Those who dumped out in a panic after the halving ended will regret it when Price reaches a new ATH. Bitcoin will continue to grow over time, there will be a lot of adoption and use of bitcoin in the future. The 4th halving this time will be the moment we have been waiting for. |

so i sold somethings in my place that are not of value to me again and started my own bitcoin investment journey.
Do not rush your journey into Bitcoin. It's alright to sell things that are not of value, but always be careful when investing to avoid risking more than you can afford to lose. Before investing in crypto, of course you have to know what the risks will be, because it's very important so you don't have regrets when the price drops and don't panic too much to sell at a low price. But Bitcoin became a sound investment as Op did, buying in increments of money he could afford to lose. It will be a long-term investment that can provide benefits. But what Op did was buy at CEX and store it there. It's better to move it to a personal Wallet to be more secure. |

just Buy instead of anything , better to buy now as it was very low and of course to expect a return in the future because this is the most promising coin from bitcoin .
It should also be noted that Ethereum has reached ATH at a price of $4891 and this is an extraordinary achievement. Currently the price of Ethereum is still around $1500. Ethereum is the most promising altcoin after Bitcoin and is the top Altcoin that can follow Bitcoin prices. There is nothing to doubt if buying ethereum for the long term. After Ethereum's move from POW to POS, transaction fees are also cheaper and the network is running well. In the future we will see that the current price is too low. |

you need to make your plan beforehand. Do you want to invest for the long term. or are you going to invest for the short and medium term. Or maybe you want to plan everything.
I personally only invest in bitcoin if it is for the long term. while I only buy altcoins to be used as short and medium term investments
You also need to know that altcoins have a higher risk than bitcoin. this is what makes bitcoin the only one I choose for the long term. But you also need to know that altcoins sometimes have a high potential for increase. it's just that you shouldn't be careless in investing in altcoins.
high upside potential will only occur in well-developed altcoins such as Ethereum, BNB and top altcoins. The altcoin will have more potential. But for new altcoins it's still not visible, but some I see are able to experience significant increases such as APTOS which was hype and became a trending topic because of the extraordinary increase and became a new network in crypto. it is not easy to find similar altcoin projects that will have good potential, it is necessary to do detailed research on each project to be involved. At the moment bitcoin is indeed the best for the long term, no one doubts it. Even the current bitcoin price is still quite cheap before reaching ATH $100k. Investment in bitcoin is the main investment and altcoins are optional investments that you can choose or not. |

Bootyslap is of course only suitable for girls with bloated bottoms LOL, I'd love to watch this tournament hehehehe. seeing ass flushed with a hard slap, this would be far from a concussion, but might be a hindrance to doggy style  |

Indeed, when talking about these two technologies, of course AI technology is at the forefront because it has developed and has been implemented in various technology products,
for the metaverse I hope there will be a real implementation because it will be interesting and let's see in the future then.
The real implementation of AI technology has indeed been seen, such as smartphone camera technology that uses AI assistance so that photos will be better. and on implementing chatGPT which uses AI that has been programmed smarter to make coding and several other commands. see the future will be full of incredible technology. Metaverse is also one of the digital world technologies that will be presented in a real way. currently widely used in the gaming industry. |

If you say that slapping is not appropriate to be called a sport because it is dangerous and can break a jaw, then do MMA and wrestling also not deserve to be called a sport and in fact MMA and wrestling actually have even greater risks that can make fighters serious injury or even disability. In all types of sports, there is definitely a risk of getting injured, but every athlete is have been trained and are truly experts in their field so that it will minimize the occurrence of injuries while competing. Lol, but this is different from MMA, Slapping is nothing more than an outlet and fun entertainment for those who are content to see others moan in pain. MMA still has a lot of fitness techniques and exercises to do to maintain better physical endurance. But I don't know what sport is applied to power slap, is it necessary to slap dolls every day? Every sport has risks, but power slap is not like other sports in general. This is just for fun and not very technical. |

If only the CEX operator are honest. Does not use the users funds secretly and then improve their security at all times then I think users won't have a problem at using them even if they store their funds on it for a long time but also the user must ensure that they are also fair and follows the CEX rules so that no problems are going to happen.
Covertly using users' funds was an extremely condemned and unforgivable way, it became the starting point of their downfall. and the impact of course affects all CEXs which are currently operating properly. The reputation of every CEX is questionable and regarding the security of user's funds they will be very careful. Nothing is safer when we store in our own private wallet, have full control and no one can manipulate. but also need to be aware of the security of the wallet. Dishonest CEX will only be trashed and abandoned like FTX. What CEX can do, DEX can too. Which is like you said to connect traders, So it would be better if you can just say that a crypto exchange are the ones who connect traders all over the world. This forum is also another example where traders around the world can connect. They can talk here and exchange ideas other than coins.
The bitcointalk forum is a link for all crypto users to exchange ideas and discuss what is happening right now, such as the FTX crash and the bad security of CEX which misused user funds. it will all be discussed here and get a lot of criticism and condemnation, so CEX like that will be destroyed and all its users will leave it. |

By preparing for a good future, we hope that our children will be able to live better lives and survive with what we have prepared beforehand. And while teaching them how to use crypto for them, we make sure that they will be fine in the future and we can smile happily knowing they can survive the rigors of life in the future. Investing in crypto helps us hope that we are doing the best for our children. And we indeed have to have other investments apart from crypto because that will also help them to be able to grow better later.
for example in property investment, a plot of land or investments other than crypto which is still good for the future. any investment will be very useful for future life. in the future maybe bitcoin will be more accepted and more adoption will be done. Buying bitcoins now and the price may increase sharply in the future, will give you a lot of advantages. If you can't afford to buy all at once, you can make purchases in stages or use the DCA method, which will help you buy regularly within a certain time frame with an adjusted amount. |

I don't know much about bitcoin, and I also want to invest in bitcoin, but I want to ask whether bitcoin has good potential for the future?
I'm not surprised to see this type of thread. I believe I commented on a similar one last week or so. We always get to see this sort whenever the market is in an upward rally. Responding to whether Bitcoin has potential for the future or not will be stating the obvious. Of course, isn't that the reason its price keeps bumbling upward whenever it goes down? Those who believe in its potential don't hesitate to buy back once there's a slight price correction. A few years ago I also found threads like this, similar threads will always be present and will continue to exist when the bitcoin market is rallying up. Regarding the potential for the future, Bitcoin will be more promising because we have seen in previous years bitcoin was able to reach new ATH which at first seemed impossible to reach above $ 50k. The next price target as well as being a new ATH is in the $100k price area. Bitcoin Also getting some adoption for legitimate payments. The people in this forum also make bitcoin a legal tender for the business they are developing. I want to know why people experience losses investing in bitcoin?
Loss is a part of business and trading. Every other business has those who suffer losses also. So, it's not a Bitcoin thing pers se. This is certainly a common problem that can occur in any investment or business. The higher the risk, the higher the loss. But the opportunity to make a profit will also get better. Those who experience losses certainly make mistakes, and losses will always come if we sell at prices that are not what we target. Start investing in bitcoin and determine the long-term price, then there will be several benefits to be had. |

It is a good wish to prepare your child's future by investing in bitcoin but many people don't realize it. People tend to try to get rich from investing in bitcoin and maybe after they get rich, they will consider preparing their children's future. That is not wrong because each person must have a plan to prepare everything for their family's future.
I haven't fully prepared for my children's future but I have started saving and saving my money into bitcoin. I've been doing it since a few years ago, even though I always sell bitcoin when the price reaches a new ATH, I always buy more when the price drops like it is now. By preparing our children's future, we hope they can use the bitcoins we have prepared for them well so that their lives will be better than ours.
That is a good idea to save as early as possible for your children to try and make their life more easy once they are older. It's true that some people would like to get rich first before saving money for their family. The problem is however that there is no guarantee to become rich. What if we invest all our life and end up making bad trading decisions. In my opinion it's better to include our children in our financial planing and put at least some money away. Already a small amount each month can grow to a decent portfolio over 18 years. The important thing is to spread out our money across multiple projects and not to put all the money into one basket. It's very hard to predict how the world will be in 20 years and what is going to be successful then. Before we get rich, there's nothing wrong if we try to start saving so we don't waste our money buying things we don't really need. If we have money, we will be easily tempted to buy these things so that we will forget our goal of wanting to save to prepare for the future of our children. By having children who have started to grow, we want to prepare for their future lives so that their lives will be better than ours. And doing good financial planning that can help us prepare for their lives later, even though they have their own desires. And investing in crypto has provided concrete evidence that we have gotten so far. preparing for a good future needs to be done, I also apply the same thing. rather than having to buy things that are not really needed, it's better to prepare the money for the future. Trying to do some crypto investments like buying bitcoins and saving them for the long term or for our children when they grow up. Prepare their economy for the future. Crypto will not be obsolete and will continue to grow. but I'm not going to put everything in crypto, because we know crypto is very risky. There will be some in Fiat and in crypto. Bitcoin has been growing for more than 10 years and we know that its development from the beginning until now has been very fast and very extraordinary. That will also apply to bitcoin in the future. |

What's the difference exactly between both? If something is being criticised then it must have bad consequences so we should also not have any reasons to love it right? The centralised exchanges are bad for storing your funds as we have seen lot of examples but only good if you are into trading line.So for me it's not good at all to use any exchange for safety of your funds.
The op seems to have explained earlier about using an exchange as a store of funds which is certainly not safe and should not be recommended. Safer storage is to store in a non-custodial wallet that you can manage yourself, but will it always be safe? of course not, because the main security is in the users themselves. CEX is currently a bridge to connect trades and several investments to be made, as well as to convert Crypto to Fiat or vice versa. Must be selective in choosing a CEX that provides asset security and provides guarantees for assets to remain safe and intact. |

I have watched this show several times to see what it is all about. Yes, I think it is a show, because I can't call this kind of entertainment a sport, as the participants don't see any outstanding achievements. Rather they will have problems with the head in their old age. I certainly wouldn't bet on the contestants on this show so as not to support the promotion of what I think is a silly show to the masses.
The entertainment is watching people get slapped so hard they break their jaws. Called a sport perhaps inappropriate, it is very dangerous for anyone without good jaw strength to imitate. Anyone can follow but, of course there is a strict selection. Silly show or not, but power slaps are becoming a popular part of the tournament today, replacing the somewhat outdated arm wrestling league. |

What about Metaverse? Will this use case faces the same fate? I am worried that we are too haste into the future like we won't be needing this until some several years later, is this something to be worried about?
I think the development of the metaverse is just a beginning similar to how AI has been applied in many fields and lives. Metaverse is mostly known for the explosion of defi and blockchain games, it's just applied in games or some art models... However I think it will be very promising for many fields.. I'm also not sure if the role of the metaverse will be sustainable in the future. That means much of the metaverse's growth will depend on user acceptance, culture. So, Is it possible to believe in the development and inevitability of the metaverse in the future? for me is Yes Different people have got different views over the technology and the product out of the same. According to me, the technology is good and the product Metaverse seems to be hype. A product should have realtime usage to grow, with Metaverse we can't see much of real-time usage. Most of them looked like an assumption, which is similar to the AI. Metaverse growth will be manipulated and the same might trigger market movement, apart it is really hard to experience true growth with Metaverse. there is no real implementation of a metaverse project in sight at this time, so the metaverse technology just becomes a project to be manipulated too much. When ii Ai becomes a technology that continues to be developed in crypto and this makes AI even more hype. In the future technologies such as metaverse, AI and others will be the technologies needed, but for now it is only a few sectors and AI is currently more likely to be applied to robots and some other automation projects. |

in fact, CZ is not that stupid to say what could make Binance crash without the slightest consideration. how many times have we seen that Binance has really big problems, like hackers and so on. However, Binance is always responsible for its mistakes. besides, I also think that Binance is too big to go bankrupt right now. Binance becoming one of the most popular exchanges today is not just because of rumors, but because of the proof that they are truly professional. On top of that, the BNB price is currently holding steady at the $300 mark.
and in conclusion this is just FUD made to tarnish binance's reputation. But binance is stronger and won't be affected just because of such obscure FUD. withdrawals and deposits went well on my account and there have never been any problems. Binance is very popular right now and CZ won't be as easy to go bankrupt as it was with FTX. Binance is quite professional and cares about its users to keep them safe and not feel that their assets will be targeted. |

Now a small number of coins have grown, as opposed to the others, which have not grown. Even the most important altcoin, ETH, lost value recently. Therefore, the dominance of BTC is not moving yet. I don't know if we are on the verge of a bull market or not, but it all looks like manipulation to me.
Bitcoin's dominance is around 42.3% and ETH's 18.4% and it's been a strong dominance and is on the rise for now. Bitcoin is still stable in the $22k-$23k price area. Is this the threshold of a bull market? we'll see when it's on Montly Closed. If Bitcoin changes direction and we are bearish, get ready to hold on, especially altcoins. Manipulation will continue to occur in the crypto market so that will also affect it. |

In fact, the main thing to understand is that this risk has a result. Most often, if trading is based on risks, the result can also be quite interesting.
That’s the thing, that many newbie traders miss while starting their trading career. You can’t make profit if you won’t take risks. Now you can make little money, if you take less risk, if you increase the risk percentage involved, then the profit you will get will be also maximum. But remember that with the increase in risk percentage, the risk of getting losses also increases. So yes invest wisely and cautiously. At last the conclusion is that, trade as per your needs. If possible take calculated risk and trade wisely. Trading as needed becomes the thing to do. Because sometimes some people trade beyond their capacity. Trading without good financial management, doing all in on all capital owned. If you don't have good management, losses will come soon. A large percentage of risk will result in a large profit, depending on how much money is traded. Without taking a risk, there will be no profit. Just getting into crypto investment is a risk because it is the decision and responsibility of each. All businesses and investments have risks with different positions. |

~snip~rarely invest in new altcoins even if they jump the increase is fantastic, but also carries a high risk too, except when placing a little capital just looking for luck
looking for luck or waiting for a new altcoin pumping boom, it is indeed very tempting when it meets expectations and enters the project early. Or if you take part in the public sale you will get a special price. But it's rare for a project to actually reach its current presale price when Bitcoin goes into a bearish mode. Placing a little capital or participating in several presales might be an option for those who want to try it with high risk.
~snip~but don't focus on Bitcoin only and better monitor the overall market movement,
The top altcoins are still an ideal choice for investment.
If you don't want to focus only on bitcoin, then decide which altcoin you will choose. But even a top altcoin will not be a guarantee that the investment will last, because we have to learn from some altcoins that have crashed despite being at the top of CMC's rankings. Do your research and do it at your own risk. |

For sure i’m not very confident this movement, keep 50:50 cash/alt, next time if btc down again its time to buy, meaning yoloing, to soon for investment, macroeconomic still not in full effect, and there is still lot of time to wait till fed full pivot, which is near halving and perfect for starting bull run
Yes despite that the market movement is starting to go up but I don't think it will last long, to be honest I don't really expect bullish to happen in the near future, we'd better see what the next development will be like. Logically, the next cycle should be bullish. But I agree with you that it is very difficult to determine which phase of the market we are in right now. Few altcoins were able to show good growth, that's because most of these coins are concentrated in one hands. About bitcoin it's not clear to me either, the 23k level is not very important, so the price can go anywhere. if the next cycle has to be bullish, of course it has to start from bitcoin. If bitcoin is a bullish altcoin recovery will not occur, but if the bitcoin price stabilizes in the $20k price area it will be an opportunity for altcoins to be able to recover in price, and also BTC dominance decreases so that a lot of money goes into altcoins. Some altcoins are showing a quite good recovery, but this depends on how Bitcoin moves, if bitcoin has to be forced down again to a price level below $20k, then the tips are getting ready to enter another bearish market. |
