The 100 merits you're referring to was from early days before the merit system was implemented. Old accounts got a default amount of merit based on their current ranking that time.

Hi Chiwell, this account has never been compromised so far. Regarding your question, I already said above how I get my current number of merits. I created this account way back 2017 and merit system was introduced year later. Things got busy with personal life so I took a years of hiatus in this forum. I just came back lately to see how things are going here.

Hope this cleared your doubts. 

Hi guys, I want to ask some tips on getting some merits. I somehow feel jealous when I see other full members having tons of it even if they're just new to the forum. I know that there are some ways to earn it like being active in your local board, engaging in the gambling threads talking about particular sports, create an informational thread, or have some deep knowledge about bitcoin's technical like block size, hash rate, etc. And that's my concern, I am not good with any of those stuffs. I am not a sports enthusiasts nor good in bitcoin technical. Our local board is not that active also compared to others where I see some members' their main merit source.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for taking my time to read my post. Cheers!  

This also shows how people lazy are to learn but wants to earn money. I've known copy trading for so long and I had not planned to put my money into it. The risk to reward ratio that those copy trader offers are not worth it, a single loss can wipeout your profits. These newbies should realize that they don't need to rush to earn through trading. They will be just like gambling if they do it with not enough fundamentals.

Kakabalik ko lang last week dito sa forum pagtapos ng maraming taon. Maraming pinagdaan pero tuloy pa din sa laban ng buhay. Gusto ko lang sana kamustahin ang mga kababayan natin dito at itanong ano ang nararamdaman nila sa mabilis na pagtaas ng mga bilihin ngayon.

Sa sitwasyon ko naman, sobrang ramdam ko ang pagtaas ng bilihin. Yung mga bagay na nagagawa ko dati tuwing sahod ko ay naging "luxury" na ngayon. Sobrang dalang ko na kumain sa mga fastfood dahil 150-200 pesos na ang mga meals na binibili ko dati. May mga ulam din na minsan ko na lang lutuin dahil sa mahal ng mga ingredients nito tulad ng sinigang na may maraming gulay. Halos katumbas na ng presyo ng gulay ang karne satin ngayon. Kahit ang mga ordinaryong pagkain tulad ng itlog, delata, at instant noodles ay nagmahal na din.

I invest in crypto in secret, does that already mean I'm not proud of doing it? Answer: No!

It's hard to show people a habit of yours where they will 1st think that it is a bad thing. I don't see anything wrong with people gambling if they just do it with their spare money and not expecting some returns. I love gacha games which has a gambling aspect but I always maintain a budget to it and not go overextend to the point that I will have to use the money that is for the monthly expenses.

Just continue your hustle and never touch that 1 bitcoin of yours as much as you can, accumulating more would even be better. You're still young and still have a long way to go. Just don't get blinded if someone invites you to an investment scheme that is too good to be true. And also avoid getting addicted to gambling. If you have time to research, try investing to other cryptocurrencies such as ETH or BNB.

Buying an existing business is more expensive, if that business doesn't go well on your desired place then you will lose a lot of money. Meanwhile when starting a small one, you can decide how much your capital and see if it will succeed then you can expand. Having a business is my dream and I want to establish my own brand from it. I can try what I want and what's on the trend since I am not bound to an existing business.

It is because of the stereotype that men are usually the hardworkers. In a family, the father is the one that works hard to earn money and the mother just receives and budget it until the next salary.

Anyway, married or single, these men are pressured to have more source of income when they know that their salary is not enough to build their future. They tend to see gambling as the way that will give it to them. Many of men's are willing to take risk in their life. While if a women is in the same situation, majority of them will just go with the flow and wait for the opportunity to earn more knock at them. They tend to be conservative and very careful before spending their money.

Let me rephrase that. - What you need is a good paying JOB.

Not all jobs pay well. It's also a dangerous strategy if you invest into bitcoin after landing your 1st job because we all know its price is very volatile. If emergency happens and the price you've bought bitcoin is lower than the time you need it then your investment is already negative. I suggest that before investing into bitcoin whatever class in the society you are invest only the amount that you won't think of everyday and treat it like to be your generational wealth.

Congrats kabayan sa pag-abot ng Hero Member rank! 

Kakabalik ko lang ngayong araw sa forum na to pagkatapos ng ilang taon na pagkabusy sa personal na buhay. Madami na din palang nagbago dito sa local board natin at nagkaroon na ng sub-board/topic. Full member palang tong account ko at gagawin kitang inspirasyon para maabot din ang rank na yan. Mahirap man pero sa sipag at tyaga makakarating din ako dyan.

Congrats ulit, more merits to come. Road to Legendary naman! 

there are some reasons why I am buying altcoins, those reasons are also in the poll. But my main reason is to stock up for the future.
Regarding this - Do you genuinely believe any of your altcoins can genuinely surpass Bitcoin or Ethereum's market values in near future? i do not believe that

Why do you need to check in the telegram group? You know there are so many scammers there. You can check the correct link through coingecko and cmc.

Yes, it is.. the price is still low so fill your bags. Matic has some P2E under it as well. I have some on my bags but will try to add more,preparing for the nect bullrun

The listed coins are on the top whether CMC / Coingecko. They are good coins to invest but we have to think as well those new promising coins especially governance token coins. And also add FTM and Matic they are on my list 

Hi ronin chain token is not out yet in the market. You can earn ronin through https://katana.roninchain.com/ by farming and pool. Hope it helps.

I think the burning of coins has a good and bad side. If the coins have a limited supply then it's quite good and "they" say that it will increase the price but for the coins/ token that are billions of supply it's just hype especially for those new projects.

I believe so, if those competitors will give us such a low gas/transaction fee there is a possibility. Solana blockchain is doing great especially those fees. Imagine the price of SOLANA last time compare today.

I think we are heading now to bearish market and we all know that it's the holiday season, so expect the unexpected. If the market will stay until end of the year then see you in 2024 or 2025 

Inevitable indeed and it's approaching.. The market is slowly declining. It's just a matter of time we are back to the downside again. But i think this coming bear will be a great opportunity to find some gems for the next bull  

this must be a good move but how can you track or penalize those airdrop hunters? because of the price decline? I think if the project had a pre-sale and airdrop maybe it's not only the hunters but as well those investors causing the price to decline, they want to get back the money they invested as soon as possible before the price go down
