941  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The BBC released a documentary inspired by SBF on: September 28, 2023, 02:01:04 PM
I hope this is good and educational because we are in need of such documentaries where everything is there for the newbies to understand the concept of how to prevent themselves from falling into such same ordeal. Just as the other scam projects where the owners are friendly and always keep their community updated with what is going on with the projects whether in Telegram or Twitter. I think this documentary will help them realize not to easily get hyped whenever there is a new trend in the crypto industry in terms of new investment and they are going to make sure that whenever they decide to invest, they have already gone through lots of personal research.

I really hate this parenting type where you need to supervise your children and make sure they're not going to far. Most parents are very strict and whenever they smell something strange or unethical, they will limit you or giving punishment to make you not try that.

This will make your kids have no creativity, decrease their friends and not able to leave their safe zones.

It depends on the place where you currently living because if the crime rate is high caused by drug addicts and other evil people, you should not make them free to go with those people who eventually makes them due heinous crime in the future, you should take care of it while they are still young and can be easily controlled because you won't get anyway when they became criminals after all his enemies will get you if they cannot find him. I think it's better to visit your children in their room than go to prison once every week just because you want them to be free and explore the evil environment that they might be living in right now.
943  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What will you do if your country did not legalize cryptocurrency? on: September 28, 2023, 01:04:57 PM
Bitcoin is a very useful thing to many people. It has provided very good opportunities, job opportunity, trading opportunity and lots more for many people to earn money for their essentials of life. Bitcoin halving is fast approaching, giving many people hope of investment, and making reasonable profit at the end. Yet in some countries it is completely illegal. What will you do if you are a fan of bitcoin but your country did not legalize cryptocurrency?

Most countries make no bad decisions like others who totally banned bitcoins and cryptocurrency in totality, they just being neutral taking some advantage and getting some taxes from the local exchanges and other crypto mining facilities. I'm totally fine with that because there are no tight regulations and I'm not worried that I'm gonna be arrested someday just by owning some bitcoins and transacting it in my country. because it really depends on how tight the regulations are, I don't really take the risk if owning BTC will makes me uncomfortable and makes me a wanted person, I rather wait for another time when they gonna change the rules again back to normal.
944  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What to do with spam and scam tokens on my wallet? on: September 27, 2023, 03:08:33 PM
I assume this will happen in the future because two years ago I also received some random tokens out of nowhere on my Binance wallet and I wondered how I ended up getting that huge amount of tokens, but when I realized something was wrong and saw what this is all about, I completely ignored those tokens and resume to my usual routine trading and playing NFT games back then. I guess just because our wallet addresses have been displayed in the free NFTs and like it, others also took advantage by listing them and selling them to the scammers to send us those tokens which are obviously lures for us to bite their traps. so it's better to ignore it and don't bother about it because until now, it has been there in my wallet and I haven't done anything about it.
945  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin kwoledge is not complete without bitcoin investment on: September 27, 2023, 01:40:47 PM
investing in bitcoins is not necessarily a need of having lots of money because a chunk from your salary is already enough to buy some little amount just to know how the crypto market works and makes you realize what if you have bought more than that. that's why I'm truly motivated by others who made a fortune out of their nice decision when they leave their bad habits just to buy some bitcoins. they chose the right track by not buying cigarettes or alcohol just to change themselves and also became productive for their families and that paid off well for them because they managed to invest some bitcoins before the great ATH ran a few years ago.
946  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: September 27, 2023, 01:08:42 PM

Although Crawford dominated Spence on their first fight, we all know that Spence can adjust his tactics so that it can counter Crawford's.  As I watch the fight between Spence and Crawford, I feel like Spence is out of sync.  I do not know if it is because of Crawford's strategy but I guess, it was a different Spence than the usual one that we have seen on their first fight.  So I would not be confident to say that this rematch will have the same ending like before (knocking out Spence).  There is always an upset in boxing so there is still a possibility even a little for Spence to win the rematch.

It was too easy for Crawford, too easy. there's no way he has to turn them down when they ask for a re-match since no one really wants to fight him in the meantime in their weight division. so he sees this fight as easy money for him since this will be a blockbuster fight once again. maybe not as much as the first one but still this won't be like the other fights and Crawford should not underestimate him and give him some opportunity in this upcoming fight rather he should finish him off and make him realize that he really facing the wall of how far he can only go.

There will be no such war happening again unless we see the NK take some risk and bully the SK again with their random rocket test near their area of responsibility, then there will be no more questions about it because the NK is soon to fire it to them. that's why both nations are alert because of escalating tensions every year especially right now when there is no one who stands in the middle to remove the hatred on both sides. This problem could have been fixed sooner if both leaders wanted the best for their people as we know, the other party doesn't want to do that ever.
948  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum's GAS increase. on: September 27, 2023, 12:07:05 PM
Looks like they cannot really do anything about this problem since most of their customers and investors don't seem affected by this kind of calamity that fallen only to the small traders. They don't really care because as we already know, lots of platforms are being made to counter this issue and they even made their own network with the lowest fees but still they remain behind against Ethereum. Throughout the years this has been the problem for Ethereum users but not its owner and those who don't really find a problem with the large amount of transaction fees because they are rich and also transacting huge amounts of ETH as well which made them blind to that kind of transaction fees.
949  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Gambling affect your relationship? on: September 27, 2023, 11:49:45 AM
Most likely people will lose their trust in you and the last person who will leave you is your partner because she knows everything about you when things don't get well and it gets worse day by day, she will leave you for her sake. I'm not gonna lie but I know a person who truly supported her boyfriend throughout his worst time but sadly he took advantage of her and asked her to provide him some money until the girl ran out of choices and chose to break out with him because she no longer has the ability to provide for him and he is not getting well rather he is getting worse and asking more money to suffice his addiction.
950  Other / Off-topic / Re: Bitcoin, unbelievable but true. on: September 26, 2023, 01:04:07 PM
I honestly experienced the same scenario back then when I transferring some bitcoins but it took a whole day to successfully transfer my BTC to our local exchange, it was my first time seeing that happen but instead of complaining, I asked people in this community regarding it and they gave me honest answers that really made me less worried and eventually calm me. It's really important to ask people here regarding crypto-related issues rather than getting angry easily because that's not the best thing to do because it won't change anything at all. I just realized the problem was with my transaction fee because it was too low back then, that's why after that, I never had the same problem again.
951  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: September 26, 2023, 12:32:59 PM

We only see a few of those kinds of altercations in the NBA, and that adds to the excitement of the game, actually. Klay vs. Booker, there's no way I will side with Booker, even though he is the better player. Basketball is a team game, not an individual one. Booker may boast about his stats, but Klay will just remind him of his 4 rings. I think Booker needs to win a championship first.

If not for CP3, the Suns wouldn't be a playoff team, that's a fact.

Too bad KD is in the Suns this season and Booker couldn't prove anything as long as KD is there except by going into the NBA championship this season. anyway, if they can go to the playoffs and win against the Denver Nuggets if ever they happen to be fighting to get to the next round, then that would be a huge improvement for them because we all know after that, it would be easy games unless they gonna go against the GSW once again but this time without CP3 and that's the best game we will ever see in the NBA playoffs this season.
952  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Accumulating Bitcoin with ease on: September 26, 2023, 12:02:44 PM
what I understand from all these, using this method to accumulate Bitcoin, will incure you will a lot of loss. Using Bitcoin as a means of payment, shouldn't be far different from using other payment method. It is just an alternative means that should be added to your payment system. If a customer decides to use it, then it's up to them. I don't see any reason why you should do many discount.Just as @ _act_ has said, they aren't necessary it will only run you at a loss.

Most of the time, this is what I see on other stores online because they don't really have any special freebies when you want to pay using BTC because they are doing their business as well and they are just making it easy for their customers by giving them options to pay with their decide cryptocurrencies. this alone is a good thing for bitcoins because when the customers look at it, they find that cryptocurrencies are not scams and they might interested in it and learn more in order to understand everything. Just doing this, you are not compromising your business and at the same time, you are actually a promoter of bitcoins in your community.
953  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I learned something new from Bitcoin today on: September 26, 2023, 11:11:41 AM
You shouldn't be addicted to anything because the more you do, the more you are compromising your life and eventually you will lose it because you don't know what to do anymore when you lose everything. that's why we always need to know when to stop and always be in moderation because whenever things don't fall into the place where we want them to be, we can still find a way to stop it and change the course of our lives. It was nice for you to learn it before it was too late because it's not that bad to wait for the price of bitcoins to rise and eventually get back your capital and some decent amount of income than to think of your loss from gambling which you will never get back again after you lose everything.
954  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling game is not good and everyone should stay away from it on: September 26, 2023, 10:42:01 AM
its a two way thing, it can make you and also ruin you. you need some luck to win and that is very scarce. Most times the issue is how to stop or take a break before you get addicted. the hope to win after every trial is what makes people want to try more. no matter how you say it for people to stay away it still wont work because its an easily presenting opportunity to make money. not many people can have a change of thought and turn back so its a good thing that you are able to do that and  i hope you will remain patient enough after coming back to bitcoin.

It's really hard to change especially when you are in an environment that always tempts you to get back to that addiction and when you have some friends who always lure you to do the same thing. that's why the number one remedy is to get away from such things. find someplace that makes you forget everything including your routine and also your friends that you hang out with every day while gambling. It's important to always take care of ourselves first before taking care of others while we are struggling and about to fall into addiction. thankfully you were able to change yourself before it's too late.
955  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: There is a code that allows PayPal to freeze your crypto assets. on: September 26, 2023, 10:12:05 AM
Well! this is not really a surprise since you are likely to read those rules and regulations before fully signing up on their platform. In fact, they are not the only ones that are doing this, I believe most centralized exchanges can actually do this and not only they can freeze your account but the entire accounts of the users currently at the exchanges and they are powerless to even withdraw their cryptocurrencies if ever that's gonna happen. I experienced this kind of freeze back when Okex had some problems regarding some small things that caused their entire exchange to be unable to withdraw.
956  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be play with care on: September 25, 2023, 10:41:15 AM
It depends, most forms of entertainment have a cost associated with it, and while in the case of some of them the cost is very low, some other forms of entertainment are a little more expensive, but there is nothing wrong with enjoying them as long as you do so with moderation, and gambling is a good example of this, as a responsible gambler can spend a moderate amount of money to get their thrill, while an irresponsible one can spend the majority of it and obtain absolutely nothing in return.

Some other hobbies are way more expensive than gambling but they don't often fall into addiction because they know how to handle it with care like collectors of antics and other similar hobbies. but when it comes to gambling, there are lots of people who fall into addiction because of the variety of choices whether you want to play small of money or a big amount of money. Also, there are lots of games that they play even in the elections, they will gamble on who's gonna win. that's why it's hard to resist once you are hooked up to it because gambling is all around the corner and the people that are addicted to it are all around the world as well.
957  Other / Politics & Society / Re: The role of political and religious leaders in the society. on: September 25, 2023, 09:56:21 AM
If religious leaders are truly religious, the people won't really have any problem with how they handle and manage their country because they know, they won't gonna be unjust to them and they will fulfill their rights. Look how the Arab countries prosper, that's because their leaders know how to use their funds to improve their countries the right way. they don't publicize all their donations and they are doing their work to make their countries improve and keep up with the other top countries at the same time, they are fulfilling the rights of their Citizens and they are taking care of them.
958  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: September 25, 2023, 09:20:05 AM
This upcoming Saturday will be an exciting moment in boxing again.

Canelo Alvarez versus Jermell Charlo (12 rounds) Super Middleweight Champion Title.
When: September 30 - 8:00 PM
Where: Las Vegas - T-Mobile Arena
PPV: Showtime

I really wanted to see Canelo win this fight and wait for Crawford to climb weight and have a huge match of the decade against him in the US. That would be one of the greatest achievements ever recorded in boxing history if Crawford managed to defeat Canelo. Because many have speculated that's not possible because Canelo is too much for him. therefore, if he proves them wrong, then he will earn the best of all boxers in his time. By the way, he also needs to beat Spence again in order for this fight to have a high chance of happening.
959  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Shiba Inu (SHIB): The Rising Star Redefining the Crypto Landscape on: September 25, 2023, 08:54:50 AM
I'm not gonna lie, but I think Shiba Inu has some potential because they are expanding the usage of this token into some other matters useful. this is not the case for other meme coins because right now, they haven't proven anything more than they are doing inside their platforms and nothing is going to change their development if they don't do what the Shiba Inu did. I wanted to see in the future that they can also be something like accepting payments in the other big stores online if they can do that, then we can say that they are improving a lot and they are really following their plans on their roadmaps.
960  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin miners energy usage has exceeded 50%, where is Elon? on: September 25, 2023, 08:18:34 AM
If he truly gonna change his mind after this event, I can say that he is really a man of his word and people shouldn't bash him for sharing some opinions regarding cryptocurrencies and economics in general because he is just sharing based on his experiences. But if he once again makes some invalid reasons, then we can say that this guy doesn't seem to deserve to earn our trust because what he is doing is just mind manipulation and all he thinks is the advantage of his company and investment, he doesn't deserve to advise people based on his personal propaganda.
