Tip: if using hardware wallets(Ledger/Trezor) it would probably be a better idea if you don't use their official software for making transactions, just to be sure. Quick reminder that you can (and it's recommended) for you to connect your hardware wallets to reputable non-custodial wallets like Electrum instead.

A lot of people thinking that the next Bitcoin halving is pretty much guaranteed to bring the bull market back is making me bearish.

If there's one thing I've learned since the last 7 years, when the normies think that X will cause Y to happen, the opposite usually happens. Or at the very least, it will take longer than usual for what most people think to happen.
983  Other / Meta / Re: Fun thought on Bitcointalk having this particular feature. on: September 21, 2023, 01:16:25 AM
Unnecessary feature to implement on Bitcointalk or any other online forum itself; as people have mentioned: it makes a lot more sense to have this feature implemented either on your keyboard app, your browser app, or through a browser plugin/extension as for it to be usable for all social media.

While having a separate cybersecurity section might be great (it's debatable), you're totally overexaggerating its effects. Sure, having a separate cybersecurity section does help a lot — in terms of better categorization/organization of threads, but it's not like people can't talk about cybersecurity today lmao.

Hahahaha..... I quite agree with you. It is not as easy as one might imagine to make a profit from crypto trading. Sometimes it's stressful because prices go down and don't go up for a long time. If the capital is small, the results will not be much

Futures leverage trading exist as an option for people with lower capital to have higher exposure(and risk). But then again, futures trading and trading in general isn't really recommended for most people to do due to how people oftenly underestimate how complicated it is.
986  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to do a better Macro, micro Economic Research on: September 20, 2023, 03:07:16 PM
Macro: read the news, and read court filings as these have significant effect over the markets
Micro: read news, token documents, and look at on-chain and off-chain metrics (Dune, TokenTerminal, etc)

For most people, I'd recommend skipping all of these and just focus on creating income outside the cryptocurrency space lol.

987  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: is bitcoin have grant program ? on: September 20, 2023, 02:48:59 PM
Grants within Bitcoin aren't similar with other blockchains whereas the founding blockchain company provides the grants. With Bitcoin, since it's decentralized, you'll need to receive funding from venture capitalists and investors in general. It's pretty much similar anyway.


I'm sure if they have it will brings so much traffic
If you're talking about funding for Bitcointalk, I'm pretty sure little to no one would be interested in trying to grow Bitcointalk — nor would Theymos want it.
988  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Elon Musk keep what he said or not? on: September 20, 2023, 03:37:18 AM
Because if Elon Musk fulfills his promise that Tesla will accept Bitcoin again for payment, there is a very high chance that the price value of Bitcoin will rally due to the strength of Elon Musk's influence in an industry like this. Is that the type of tweet that is positive for Bitcoin? Even if it's just a short post, it has a big impact on the market, and he has seen and proven that in Dogecoin and Shiba Inu before.
So let's just watch out for Elon's tweets so we can track the trend.

If there is an effect, it will likely be like one of those "announcement pumps" where it will just be a temporary price pump. It would undoubtedly be good news in general, but in the grand scheme of things, it will end up just being a nothingburger — like any other 'news' like this.
989  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Why is the language here different from what we use in the real world on: September 20, 2023, 03:25:42 AM
Thank you for your willingness to guide me to some source,  but more worries is not on Bitcoin technicalities right now,  but major worries for me is how to communicate in the appropriate manner with other senior forum members like yourself because you guys are too professional in your space that newbies are almost left in amazement with the level of intelligence and slangs used in most comments here in the forum. This is what have been my major worries in the past,  but as at now that I have started interacting gradually I am overcoming that phobia gradually.

I don't see it that way at all? I and a lot of "senior forum members" type so casually and are definitely not professional at all. It seems like you're speaking based more on assumptions rather than actual experience here in this forum.

And "phobia"? Seriously? Lol.

Do you agree that sentiment is embedded in charts?
It can be, to some extent. Through looking at open interest and such.

This is also what makes it so dangerous, in my opinion, to assume a start of the bull with the coming halving (probably in April 2024). Everyone assumes that the halving will usher in the next run, but there is absolutely no guarantee of that, certainly not the shortage of supply of "new" Bitcoin through mining.

However, you can already see "well-known" crypto-influencers promising viewers the blue of heaven and arguing that it was the same in the past. Three cycles, where the halving has actually heralded the bull, do not allow for a guarantee for the future.
Exactly, hence why I'm a bit skeptical. I still don't know what's going to happen though, so I'll make sure I have dry powder if ever we see the opposite of what most people are expecting to happen.
991  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Don't Just HODL But HODL Wisely and Securely on: September 19, 2023, 03:14:24 PM
What sucks is that if most beginners just download a bitcoin wallet off Google PlayStore/Apple AppStore, chances are, they'd land upon an exchange wallet or a custodial wallet. The way bitcoin/crypto is now, you need to learn by mistake first lol before actually ending up diving deeper.

Unless I won't gain anything from promoting a business or networking with people, I'd rather pass. If I'd gain the same information/knowledge from watching a conference live and watching a replay on YouTube, it's not worth it — not money-wise, but privacy and security-wise.
993  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: They sent me btc to my wallet they were available and then they disappeared! on: September 19, 2023, 03:18:30 AM
We can't help you without much information.

1. What wallet were you using?

2. Were you using an exchange wallet(Coinbase, Binance, etc) or a non-custodial wallet(BlueWallet, Electrum, etc)?

3. Was the transaction confirmed with at least 2 confirmations?
994  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Let's share some tips among ourselves. on: September 19, 2023, 02:19:27 AM
It all boils down to market sentiment. Mostly it's not even the decreased supply distribution through the halving that causes market upticks — it's mostly the fact that people think they need to invest more money in the asset due to decreased bitcoin units being distributed. It's mostly only narratives in the short-mid term.
995  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Have a clear understanding of what DCA means on: September 19, 2023, 02:00:51 AM
You even don't have to use a same amount of capital for each DCA round. Sometimes you can use smaller or bigger amount of capital for a DCA round. Because it can depends on your feeling about the market trend as well as your available funds for DCA at that time. If you see the market is good and you have money in hands, you can DCA with doubled capital than your normal amount.

You can technically do it like this and twist the strategy in whatever way you want, but the main purpose of DCA is to just buy an equal amount every time, to eliminate the psychological/emotional factor of markets. Changing the amounts every time kind of defeats the purpose of doing DCA.
996  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why Is Bitcoin Price Increasing? on: September 18, 2023, 04:35:51 PM
In other news, water is wet.

This is like those typical threads that have been posted a thousand times already, with the difference just being today's price (you even got the price wrong; bitcoin is already $27k+ by the time you posted this).
997  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Paxos recovers its $500,000 'fat finger' Bitcoin transaction fee on: September 18, 2023, 03:51:36 PM
Weeks ago, it was reported after analysis that it is error from an software which is responsible for processing transactions automatically. I doubt that it is an error but an intentional setup to create some fud on the market.

I agree with you that if it is an error by automatic processing, why it happened when Bitcoin need to be dumped by whales?

If it is not automatic error, but manual error, a big company must have double check or even tripple check when proceed transactions especially such very big transaction.

I'd like a conspiracy theory from time to time, but how can this be "FUD" though? I don't think it can be mistaken even by dumb people that it's the case that this was Paxos' mistake — not some Bitcoin protocol bug or something.
998  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Paxos recovers its $500,000 'fat finger' Bitcoin transaction fee on: September 18, 2023, 03:30:23 PM
Makes you wonder how a company of such size($2.4 billion as per Forbes) makes such an amateur mistake. Like, probably just having a second person(which I'm pretty sure they can afford) to double check the transaction setups will mitigate such mistakes.
999  Other / Meta / Re: Without merit... on: September 18, 2023, 05:08:09 AM
No need to say much but I'd like to know, without merit how can YOU rate a post as a quality post or how can you appreciate a quality post?

You take appreciation by taking time into reading it, or probably interacting with it if you have something valuable to say. Merits are appreciated if you think a post is of good quality, but it is not required at all. And you definitely don't need the public to know that you appreciate almost anything.
1000  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: A platform for Hiring Affiliates on: September 17, 2023, 06:36:10 PM
If you want to make it a bit more automated, simply create an affiliate program that's decently attractive for advertisers. If you have an attractive-enough affiliate program, just market it a bit — then you should be getting a lot of interested advertisers as long as your offer seems realistic and that your platform isn't scammy.
