1  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How much btc do you need to secure your future? on: April 30, 2021, 10:52:39 PM
 I don't need much maaaan .. it's just that,
I'm in desperate need for owning 25.000.000 SATS up to 100.000.000 SATS in perspective of LONG TERM HODLING, at least for a Decade while those who were early in price terms are in need of Lambos and lavish lifestyle and they are so Greedy to not help a brother out!
I need 0.25 up to 1 BTC to HODL for a Decade, while remaining on this lengthed time span a Slave to the Wicked Monetary System while Selling my time working
more than 9-5 for a pathetic ANNUAL SALARY of 2.000$ up to 3.000$, where saving half of that it's called 'mission impossible'.
It's a shame how lower to the depth of Hell we as species have come to dude!
Full of Envy, Greed and BlackHearted.
I can not imagine my self being on the position of someone who OWNS at least 5 BTC[which can swing trade peaks and double up on position]not sharing 0.25 with a stranger like me who believes on Bitcoin and his
mission is to HODL and not trying to scam anyone, just so this person can be FREE one day from Bitcoin since it was it's only Mission.
Giving FREEDOM to our DUMBASSES and WAKING US UP to how DIRTY, EVIL and Crooked the 'game' of Monetary System really is.
However, I have already lost faith in humanity and I'm not expecting any HERO to give me an arm and LIFT ME UP from this MISERY I'm in.
I came to late in price terms to find out about Bitcoin, but already went all in with what I had as lifesavings after purchasing a Cold Storage.
I've done x3> so far, but what I own (1/10 of a fraction) will never be enough to free me in a decade, even if BTC hits 1.000.000$ by that time (which I frimly believe so but inflation would be rising also)
I'am destinied to suffer, I feel BLESSED and CURSED findinf out about Bitcoin!
Before, I had no clue of how money works and everything else, so it WOKE ME UP, so I'm appreciative to consider it a Blessing.
The curse is that, I come from a third world coutnry, had a bad adolescent which result nowday to having an record and finding being employed ten times harder than the average uneducated person.
I'll be turning 25 in months, and have not achieved anything but fullfill my Character and Dignity.
I'm Trustworthy, Loyal, Respectful and I try to help who I can to my utmost effort.
Unfortunately, I went through a LOT to be who I am today.
So much people DON'T HAVE A SINGLE CUE what some go through, to become A MAN.
And many, will die without never being one, be it a multi-millionaire who is sorrounded by fake Respect, be it someone who is really Succesful on a niche.
I never was into Internet before 2016-2017, since we had no Personal Desktop education within our broken Post-Communism System for 3 decades now.
Have I had found Bitcoin through 2015-2016 I'd certainly own a WHOLE ONE today, sleeping at ease at nights.
However, I've been unemployed since Covid Breakout.
So many jobs that will never come back here are shut down FOREVER, and I have a slim chance on getting on due to my record.
I have no path to overcome my burden, but praying for a Better Day.
Since I lost my job without receiving any stimulus here, I've been taking early morning walks, reading books, learning about Trading, Exploring Bitcoin, and have Experienced living FREE at least, even tho I'm DIRT BROKE with my HEAD DOWN.
I don't know bro, World seems a f*cked up place to me, at times I wish I never was Part of this God Damn Earth.
Or at least, I would've asked to be an Eagle and be free Flying HIGH on another realm.
I refuse to BELIEVE that no-one will be willing to help me out, but unfortunately so far nobody has taken me seriouslly and that's why I have my hopes shadowed in humanity.
It's just unfair to some, how much the Power of 1 Bitcoin can do to their lifes.
Wish I had a Bag full of Bitcoin, my only mission would be searching people the likes of me, who are passionate about BTC.
However, I'll stick to my plan no matter what. I'm learning and growing everyday of my life since last year, even tho' it is a DISASTER FINANCIALLY.
I've been living on Beans and thanks God for that, cooking a huge pot to last  me 3-4 days of a Week.
But there are worse than me so I won't complain to be honest.
I'll get there one day, sooner or later.
It's just, I consider half of my life GONE so far, not many people are Blessed to live until 50 up to 60, and I'll be 25 in a short time.
Wished someone changed my life, that's all I need from Bitcoin Community, who is full of Bitcoin Maximalists, without a DOUBT.
If anyone has a TradingviewAccount you are pleased to follow me here :
https://www.tradingview.com/u/BitcoinAffection/
I'm happy for the knowledge I've gained within the last year regarding trading and TA, even tho' It's just my beginning and hopefully I'll get better.
If anyone of you who happens to read this till so far, I APPRECIATE IT <3
And if anyone of You happens to be a good Chess Player, send me an challenge at

Bitcoin is sometimes vulnerable like getting stolen from phishing sites, hacking and scamming other people is a  form of damage to bitcoin.

Is there any chance that bitcoin can have an insurance from its vulnerabilities in the future?
All those situations you listed are not vulnerabilities of Bitcoin but rather a result of the actions of the person holding them.


- Exactly

4  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin is about to turn 12 on: October 30, 2020, 03:10:06 PM
Look how much Bitcoin has grown up!
Head held up High!
Scarcer(stronger) than even (Peter's weak-minded Schiff) Gold in itself,
and yet,
Humble!
Humble from all the DIRT it was thrown at it in its Inception, be it from speculators with ill-hate speeches, be it mainstream medias ill-headlines[especially with the Silk Road- case], Governments banning it, being ridiculed and still this day having doubters and haters.
But as it seems, it's relative!
What for some started as a 'good' Halloween Joke, for others was Everything!
To those who understood it!
2' Those who read The White-Paper more than once and were constantly re-searching to understand it more deeply, on what it really Bitcoin was and on what it really meant for us!
You'd see back then, Affectionate voluntary individuals/miners mining on basic Home-Computers and overheating their old-tech GPU to earn Bitcoin at 50BTC per Block Reward while today it sits at 6.25BTC with an All-Time High Difficulty to earn Bit's, and not any ordinary average tech-person can do it, none the less having a bunch of money to start with on setting the minining computers, paying electricity bills and other difficulties along the road of earning Bitcoin.
2' those who started saving cash before Bitcoin even had a price and was an open market(January 3/2009)
2' those who bought at Bitcoin's first baby steps and watch it grow to 20K and it will grow more!
YOU Deserve to be a Millionaire!
You who sold Peaks- bought lows and more Bitcoin and less cash-profit means!
2' those who well-managed their coins and didn't lose them!
2' those who lost their coins, and bought yet firm again on their decisions at lower entries, accumulating even more and not having to much fun with their wealth.
To those who became firm believers after the first ones and started investing more heavily in fiat means as price continued growing.
How could've some one's attention was not won when Bitcoin saw an 900% ROI(Return Over Investment) just five days after its first baby-steps[first price]
How could've some one's attention was not caught after reading 'Abstract' and 'Introduction' on the White Paper!
How could've someone who was blessed to begin with, hearing about Bitcoin since then and even registering on bitcointalk.org having the chance replying to Satoshi themselves and were here for the only purpose of spreading negativity, Ponzi stuffs writing out of IGNORANCE while Refusing to be Enlighten'.
How could've someone in reality really turned his back on Bitcoin ??
HOW!
It blows my freaking mind, I'm telling U', especially in the position I'm at where owning even a quarter of a whole Bitcoin at the current price it's almost impossible, and owning even One or Two it's just a far-fetched dream.
It blows my mind I'm telling you!
HOW it can not!?
When I think on terms of how destiny is written for me! At sleepless nights and hopeless days since I was first introduced to Bitcoin in 2020(3-4 months ago),  all I see is how things would've been so much different for me not just in cash means but everybody in blood relatives helping them, and even orphans on my family tree.
How much different my life would've been as a humble millionaire from Bitcoin having a strong obsession over Bitcoin, working for it, and helping other newcomers out who love BTC the same and wanna HODL and accumulate more by selling peaks and buying lower.
Had I was blessed like those ignorants who refused to listen and to just read and ponder upon Bitcoin in 2008 White Paper Releasment, everything would've been different.
Ah, destiny!
I just wish and hope that Bitcoin will have a biiiiig spiike on it's Birthday in price terms since it is already up, and I wish that day will be the first day for the New Bitcoin Bull-Market, even tho I own too little, not even a whole fraction of Bitcoin and price going high it's not on my favor.
I wouldn't mind to miss the next peak out and be financially free in the future to where I live, cuz I see Bitcoin going to 200K+ price range to be honest, and even potentially more.
I wouldn't mind to hold the pain, know I have
an objective on how should I use my cash, tho' there'se no capital or whatsoever.
I wished I was not just an 12 years old kiddo back then, especially coming from a third world country 20 years post communism, and accesing a Personal Computer was a luxury, and where on Schools of Elementary and High Schools really was not an class for devoloping computer's skills and knowledge.
Take care of your Bitcoins!!!
Bright future is coming ahead.
If U own 1 cheer up!
If U own 0.1 and can't afford more, still smile!
I relate to your pain, but at least U own 10.000.000 SATS
That in itself, is a Huge Deal.

*try to keep it positive cuz negative stuff makes me irritated while reading negative comments, I might' go Nutz!

First of all I am seeing that you are coping and pasting a part of the responses of this thread on your replies without quotes, if you want to quote someone use the quote button on the right of their post and edit the post as you see fit, this may seem like it is not a big deal but in this forum copy and pasting is a big no and you can get banned for it.

Now back on topic, you are in a bad situation no doubt about it, but it does not seem like you have any knowledge about how to trade the markets and that is a recipe for disaster, as you have probably noticed this market is highly volatile and this means that whales and expert traders are experts at using this volatility against normal people to make them lose money, my advice then will be to keep trying to find a job and improve in other field including trading, give it at least 6 months and more important than anything backtest your system, many people begin to trade using a system they got on the Internet without knowing if it is profitable or not, and the only way to do this is by testing the system against the previous movements of the market, if you do this against several markets and your system still generates profits at the end then you at least will have an edge when you finally decide to trade the markets.

I hope this way I quoted is proper. I'm new here and do not know much in regards to the bitcointalk forum.
Back to the advices U sent out for me, I appreciate it. I'm not interested on day trading and standing all day long into charts looking to get into a trade.
Absolutely not!
However I thank you for the advices and the whales perspective, it's really helpful to look at the bigger picture.
Thank you.

First, bitcoin is not the right "investment" for someone in your situation.  Bitcoin is a volatile asset and could easily drop down to 7-8k just like that.

- I'm looking on long term-perspective bro not short term.. More like in 2022-2025
I appreciate you affection to my current situation, and I wish I had anything to offer U so I can receive your help, which is your passion <3.
I'm really thankful for your reply and keep doing what U do. Ones does not need to have a costume to be an Hero.
Keep up your work bro <3 U'll do Awesome

7  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Constructive Financial Advice Needed on: October 26, 2020, 03:04:16 PM
What sort of income would you need to retire there (I'm kinda curious). I'd guess if living off $75k you'd start a company or invest and make 4-10% a year (so 3 to 7.6k)?

- I don't really know, or better said it differs from person to person. [ spending habits, money management etc etc]
In my city one can lavishly waste 1-10k a night if throwing parties etc etc
I'm a cheap one, I was raised like so.
I have lived through basic needs and necessities and thanks to God I have no rent to pay for my old constructed house, which is decent enough even for a foreigner who loves to live humble.
Workign as a waiter gave me 125$ off taxes, and at the best month going 200$ with tips included.
On the other work, I was getting paid 250$ off taxes[which is near the average salary], with no more tips included.
Give or take, I was getting payed around 400$ a month.
1/3 of it went for taxes such as electricity, health care, bills etc etc]
The others left were spent trying to get through the month and trying to save up to 100$/per month as a goal, which was not often met.
Money wouldn't change me for what I missed out during puberty and early 20's.
I just see it as an access because I'm tired trading my time for a fixed pathetic amount of money.
I have no diploma, own no tools for my skills[which go around 3k as a package and not the best ones]
So to me, 100K can settle me not even worrying to grow more[which is not my ambition]
With 300-500K, I can settle my kids future and maybe more generations if my seeds did better than me and continue growing.
However, back 2 your curiosity.
Real Estates here vary from 50k-125k[from average apartments, to luxurious ones built post communism. [https://www.realestate.al/en/apartment-for-sale-in-Tirana]
There are also some overpriced one going for 300k-400k which are beautiful, but not worth it.
Starting businesses or companies it's an hard task, at least for as much as I know what is going around here.
But yeah, 100-250K, and U never worry for a thing for the rest of your life.
4 seasons here
Beaches, mountains, valleys, villages to be explored with not that much of a money, so U don't need as much to 'travel the world' and spend your wealth of 100-250k.
Trying a Business/Brand or a company?
Worth it, but in the same time at the current state, Not worth it.
And that's why 1Bitcoin is a huge deal to me!
1 BTC to HODL till the next peak-near peak, and buying 2+BTC or more on Peak's correction which is around -80-90% as Data shows from previous 2 Peaks
So, I don't see my self 'retiring' even if I owned at the moment 1BTC, I wouldn't take cash profits to the extent of 100k-200k
but swing trading just 0.25BTC[three-four times per year] owning 2BTC after next peak, would give me what I need to settle down and still store most of my wealth on Bitcoin.
And this is not why I love Bitcoin for.
But trading a fraction of it and not gambling it [long-short and being a day trader] would be a 'work' for me being independent and taking care of others, not even bothering starting a company, a business or whatever. I'd be writing about Bitcoin, following news, looking how it moves n the charts. Live life, pursue what I like to find my passion, read and self educating my self.
All this, because Bitcoin would de-couple me from fiat enslavement and rat-race.
I would not trade my time no more for cash, and for pathetic amount which can't make me start my own thing for now and hopefully grow.
So, besides Bitcoin's great Technology, it is a savior for real!
I hope I answered your answer which I may have not, because I didn't really understood your meaning of percintile ROI because I never did one so I can not really answer it the way U want.
I gave capital perspectives which might help U calculate your perception.
I'd be glad if I helped Smiley




8  Economy / Trading Discussion / Constructive Financial Advice Needed on: October 26, 2020, 02:16:51 PM
Hello everyone Smiley
I find/see my future financial status being dark&gloomy.
I'll be 24 in a matter of months.
I started working as a waiter since I was in high school aging just 15-16 pursuing school and
working at the same time.
After I finished high school at the age of 19, I started working extra hard maintaining 2 jobs in order
to make ends meet and provide my household with food and going through the months
without burdening any other individual having a hard time worrying about money.
The second profession was a bit better in skills means and salary means.
 I started developing photo shooting skills for food and product photography,
and also Digital Marketing, displaying social media ads and google ads to increase one's business revenue up to
10-15% a month.
However, even tho' I was working as a waiter and the new other profession, I couldn't save as much money so I could
launch my own business or invest [as I found out in 2019-2020 the Trading World]
I come from a third-world country where salaries are pathetic.
I come from a broken home and being the oldest sibling, I needed to sacrifice my best productive years
of my life working for others and taking orders constantly on a daily basis.
I couldn't attend college due to finance to get a diploma, in order to opening new doors to a better job status inside the 9-5 rat race perspective.
Now, I've been depressed and feeling hopeless since Covid Pandemic made me lose previous jobs so I'm currently
unemployed, not to mention I have had some job interviews with no positive outcome after things started opening up from lockdowns.
Since March's lockdown, our household have been struggling in terms of food.
We cook beans often since they last up to 3-4 days, so it's hard but we are still surviving.
However, when I think about my future self, I see nothing positive on the horizon.
Is worth mentioning that I'm optimistic and never felt this way before, so I'm starting to doubt my nature due to pessimism I've fallen into.
Out of my lifesavings, I have around 1.5K to invest, and I'll go with Bitcoin since I've already invested some.
I found out about Bitcoin for the first time around June 2020, when the price was hovering around 10k+ or something, and since my first purchase, I didn't even managed to buy me not even 0.1 BTC.
What I can afford now to buy Bitcoin at 13K, is less than 0.1BTC.
Blame it on luck/destiny, I missed the March's Black Swan not knowing about Bitcoin and what it really meant as an technology.
Now I'm in love with it!
I can't take off my mind thinking at what cave have I been sleeping in since 2008 when White-Paper was Published.
But still I'm appreciative coming so late in price means, even tho owning a full one Bitcoin, a full one from the best performing asset in history is not a realistic goal.
I was wondering if what I can afford now around 0.10-0.12 BTC in total will be beneficial for my future.
All I need is around 75-100k to retire in my shitty ass country, and Bitcoin will def. peak in the next NATH around 200k or even more, I have a feeling about this.
However, that still doesn't put me on my fiat goal to be achieved, but brings me closer.
I have no doubt that Bitcoin will ease my burden, but still I want to sell high, re-accumulate more SATS and take just small cash profits.
Trading Bitcoin twice or 3 times per year following the market up to date, seems a good job and being free.
Please, share your thoughts and advice. Maybe someone's word here may put more joy to my life from where I'm standing from.
In no way Im trying to beg any Bitcoin what-so ever, even if someone bought at US Dollar Parity and their Bitcoin is worth 1$ in their eyes.
That would indeed be life-changing, and I will never be able to pay that individual back even if in the future I try to give him in return
more Bitcoin.
However, let's stick to reality and not dreams.
PLEASE consider being talkative in your replies and try to be positive








9  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Which is more important bitcoin or fiat? on: October 25, 2020, 03:31:02 PM
BITCOIN of course!!!
How would U be feeling more comfortable with!!!
Having 100.000.000$ in cash means, sitting in a bank, money of yours which is lended with interest to others and make their life miserable from interest
OR
Having 100.00.000$ in Bitcoin, stored in one or multiple Cold Storages ? Having full control over your money, no withdrawal limits within 24hrs, no worrying for nothing as long Internet exists and Bitcoin runs as an
fortificated network due to miners activity.
Overall, having 100.000.000$ in Bitcoin means to own one of the scarcest asset that is out there.. even scarcer than mf gold itself.
It's all matter of perspective from an individual to another.
Had I owned 100.000.000$ this is how would I go for protecting my wealth.
45% of it in Bitcoin
45% of it in Physical Gold
10% to go through the life!
So, all I can suggest to you, is measure what U protect a store of value, an hedge agains cash inflation which raises almost 2% every year.
10  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: buy low sell high? (I'm a noob) on: October 25, 2020, 03:14:42 PM
Buy Low, Sell High it's efficient but the thing is that one must possess the real meaning virtue of Patience.
I'd recommend U to take it slow and not rush yourself into trading immediately, but rather always doing research and keeping up to date.
As for the best Exchange outthere, Id recommend Binance.com.. one of the safest Crypto xchange outhere and the most responsible. Last year Binance was hacked and hackers stole a good wealth
and yet, none of Binance users didn't lost their coins or they'r money, everything was refunded.
Other than that, it's worth mentioning that Binance's trading interface is also very useful and user-friendly, easy to work with.
If U are trying to find any professional trader who sell their works and charting setup , Id recommend U to go take a look at cryptorev.net or youtube channel [ Crypto Revolution ]
If U got money to invest and time to day-trade or make at least 3 trades per week and profit, U should def. take a look at CryptoRev. its very helpful.
I made some money from free trading set ups he gives for free on youtube daily updates, not evewn being part of the group [ VIP ]
I truly believe that guy is legit, ands his channel will only grow more. Life changing money to be made into crypto markets if one is careful and patience not rushing into stuff fast.
Good luck in your journey , and def invest on Bitcoin in long-term goal!
Take care and be careful out there
11  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: ALL IS NEEDED on: October 21, 2020, 02:49:35 PM
all I can say more is that I wished there was a way for U to experience living just a day of my life so U would understand the 'far-fetched' dream and the pain one male can go through to become a Man.

you'd be surprised to learn how similar our situations can be. i do live in a third world country with shitty economy that has been experiencing super inflation for a long time now.
i was also in a situation much worse than yours and imagining even owning 1 whole bitcoin was like an impossible goal to me back then. that is why i say it is not so far-fetched.

but i kept dumping any extra fiat i had for bitcoin, traded some to make profit, have been doing a lot of work both online and offline, and have been investing my money always trying to increase it.
i started from a very small capital too, something like a $100.

just trying to tell you that you shouldn't lose hope. keep it up and always try to find ways to invest the money you have and increase it while not taking crazy risks.


- Now, that's truly inspirational bro Smiley I'm so glad U did so well... no doubt I feel a huge relief upon reading your second comment Smiley
I wish your future will be brighter than U ever imagined, because U have sacrifice a lot for it... and keep doing so
Keep up the good work, U' r truly an amazing ambitious driven person

Buy back more than just 1 BTC at lower price levels of upcoming bear market.

wait a minute why should there be a bear market when the bull market has not yet  started? the price has to rise a lot more and a lot faster than this for us to even begin seeing bear market.
besides if someone were a trader they don't need "bear market" to make profit. there are always lots of ups and downs to make profit from.



Quote
But owning a whole One Bitcoin at current price levels, is a far-fetched dream for many[especially for those coming from a third world country]
i disagree.
it is only a "far fetched dream" if you don't want to make an effort. otherwise you can start today and learn new skills or improve the skills you already have and start making money from them. that money can either be in form of bitcoin (getting paid in BTC) or fiat which you would then convert to bitcoin.
and i am not just saying that, i have done it myself.

Quote
and for some living on better countries, owning a whole Bitcoin may be quite a challenge to be accomplished at 11-12k/BTC
again it comes down to how much effort you want to make. in fact you may have an edge compared to other people in developed countries since the cost of living in developing countries is lower.
take a look at how many freelancers are working on the internet and making good amount of money.




'wait a minute why should there be a bear market when the bull market has not yet  started?'

- I think U have misunderstood what I meant about that, or maybe I miswrote it and gave it a different understanding.. what was I trying to say was the upcoming bear market after the New All Time High takes place, after which Bitcoin correct almost 80-90%[and this percentage based on previous market Data]

- For some it is a 'far fetched dream bro' and that's how it is.. I never knew about Bitcoin before May-June 2020, and having said that I was working like a race horse previous Covid-Lockdowns for almost 4 years, with an annual salary of around 3.000$ off taxes if all salaries were saved not spending anything on food and stuff[wich is more than extreme]... simple math, that is equal to 12.000$ in 4 years span if whole salary was saved, working 2 jobs, and not enjoying life at the least of expectations... just literally waking up early-work-break1hour-work-sleep repeat.. now tell me, how'd U feel wasting 4 years of your life for that.. in the best period of one's life. Years that will never come back and can never be bought with money when one's age. So... I just think we come from different ways of living and different mindset. Maybe mines is not that good, But I had to work hard because I neede to provide food for my little brother and my mothers, cuz all burden fails on the oldest sibling on a broke-home.
But yeah, I appreciate your advices trying to 'change' my mindset when it can not be changed because I already know what mindset should someone have to retire and never work a day in their life for others,,, especially selling their time for worthless shitty paper we call money... but, all that being said.. all I can say more is that I wished there was a way for U to experience living just a day of my life so U would understand the 'far-fetched' dream and the pain one male can go through to become a Man.

I'm trying all the opportunities bro, but everything takes time and patience, especially when it comes to grow money/capital and having said that, I don't think in realistic means that Bitcoin will care for me and wait for me at 11-12k area until I get my money right Tongue to buy a whole one. That's all why I'm saddened for..
but hey, I have already put aside what can I afford to lose investing on cryptospace, and I have not that much to play around with shittyalts rather than just buying and hodling some satoshis. All I have is a pathetic 'capital', the value of is worthless because 10% of that capital went on buying a cold storage Ledger Nano S..
Anyways,thanks for caring to reply Smiley I sincerely appreciate the advices of yours, and the time it took U to write down what U wrote Smiley
Good luck to you buddy and take care Smiley

One thing for certain is that Bitcoin will have a NEXT PEAK, and after that NewATH is reached, a deep correction of -80%-90% in price will occur as a gift from Bitcoin to us to accumulate more [based on previous Data's Bitcoin has given us as clues on price correction]
Honestly, while I'm expecting the exact same thing, Bitcoin has surprised us so many times I personally wouldn't put all my trust in it like that. It could very well surprise us and move completely different this time compared to the last few 4-year cycles.

The ones like me who found out about Bitcoin after the most precious gift given from Bitcoin before the current Bull Market's Peak, was back in March 12-13, when Bitcoin was sitting at a price area of 3.8K-4K [which is quite some money for third-world countries but not so much for other developed countries]
Now it seems like Bitcoin will never again fall below 10K area, and that's why the term 'I'm too Late' pops-up.
You're not late for the price either imo. Bitcoin has appeared only a decade ago. It's like Gold had been discovered a decade ago. You're very early, may I say. The adoption % and market immaturity speaks strong words. Smiley

How much I wish I was blessed to found out about Bitcoin at least on the 2017 ATH so I could've followed it's price movements and buy at bear market's phase.
Just think about it: I've spent my Bitcoins when 1 BTC was less than $180, thinking it'll go down to zero. Each of us learns from their mistakes and we don't always have that much luck.

Most of the OG Bitcoiners have sold when Bitcoin wasn't even $100. Think of mining a coin that's worth nothing and then, suddenly, the price bumps from nothing to $10. Nobody ever thought at the time that $10k is realistic. $1M sounds more than insane today, but if history repeats, it's not. And if that happens, most people'd probably cash out earlier leaving only few hodlers for the big prize. Wink



- I agree with everything U say expect something and I find it mindblowing coming from an early Bitcoin founder like U

- this is partially true... but if an OG Bitcoiner saw a worthless new upcoming technology go from 0-10 or from 10$ to 100$, in that position I would've sold also, but with a goal to accumulate more or the same amount I had before selling, on buying lower rather than staying off from Bitcoin.. this mindset ofcourse comes from someone who's not just an OG-Bitcoiner but a believer in it in the sense that will have a bright future in price speculation means as a currency for transaction world-wide.. like we say today that Bitcoin will reach 50k-100k-250k and more of these prediction in the next decade.
However, I know I'm not late bro, we are still in early adoption. Just the price is what bugs me out and drives me nuts..
After all, I have to thank you for you comment, I truly appreciate it.. and Bitcointalk.org has been quite a help for my mental health, since I was in a semi-depressive state before. This is a great community and I'm so thankful I found out about it Smiley
Take care and I wish all the best for U Kevin Smiley

A whole Bitcoin it's what is all needed before the Next Bull Run Peak.
In order to Sell it High
&
Buy back more than just 1 BTC at lower price levels of upcoming bear market.

Why would 1 BTC have to be some kind of magic number? So if someone discovered BTC just a few months ago like you and you live in a country where $10 000+ is a huge fortune, there is no point in burdening yourself with impossible things. We also cannot be sure how much correction there will be after the next ATH, these are all just assumptions based on past events.


Now it seems like Bitcoin will never again fall below 10K area, and that's why the term 'I'm too Late' pops-up.
Not too late in the sense of Bitcoin's mass adoption because we are still in early stages, but too ate in sense of accumulating and buying Bitcoin.

Never say never when it comes to Bitcoin, it can happen in the next 24 hours or 24 months, it all depends on what happens in the global market - because if stocks, oil and even gold fall sharply again, Bitcoin will certainly react very negative. While it is true that Bitcoin is still in its early stages, this of course cannot be said for a price that has experienced an incredible jump from the genesis block. Just as we commented on this forum 5 years ago that anything under $1000 is a cheap purchase, now we might agree that anything under $10 000 is also a cheap purchase, and in 5 years it might be the same for the $100 000 price tag.

Had I been someone who was blessed to buy at those price areas, I would've helped my poor siblings and blood relatives from my family tree to live a more decent life and never worrying about cash anymore in this f*cked up country I live in.

Instead of thinking about things like this, maybe you should focus on the future and what you can do to improve your life for the better with the help of Bitcoin. If it is at all possible to make an accumulation plan for a certain period, try to find a job (or a better paid job), and if you do your best, this forum will give you the opportunity to earn some coins by learning and helping others.


- I absolutely and sincerly appreciate the reply of yours filled with advices.
However, I've tried my upmost to change my life on where I live and almost everything has gone in vain... and that's time which relates to years of my life.
I'll be 24 soon, possessing no education diploma due to not having financial will to pursue one.
I possess the skills of Food Photography and Products , plus Digital Marketing.
Combining both of the skills and appyling them in businesses here to increase their monthly revenue up to 10% and getting paid 250$ off taxes a month it's pathetic.
Had I applied the skilles elsewhere, my work would've been more appreciated in salary value, so more income to manage and invest.
The only thing I 'cry & complain" for is that it wasn't written for me to find out about Bitcoin early on, when the price was lower.
And this not being said to be a selfish f$ck, but finally seeing my self free from selling my time for money and helping those in need.
Pursuing my passions and living decent and yet humble even if I owned a shitbag of Bitcoin bought in pennies.
We just live in different perspectives bro, so I can not say anything more but valuing your speech and not taking it for granted because I get the core message you are trying to send accross with your reply. And everything U say makes logical sense, and it's a pusher, so yeah I appreciate to my upmost respectful way the time it took for you to reply and care Smiley
Be well and take care
Much more positive people like U is needed to make the World a better place and U clearly make a difference.
I bet U are a good friend in need.

But owning a whole One Bitcoin at current price levels, is a far-fetched dream for many[especially for those coming from a third world country]
and for some living on better countries, owning a whole Bitcoin may be quite a challenge to be accomplished at 11-12k/BTC
This however, it's an hard task for newcomers in Bitcoin.

How much I wish I was blessed to found out about Bitcoin at least on the 2017 ATH so I could've followed it's price movements and buy at bear market's phase.
How much I dream of finding out about Bitcoin's White-Paper when it is released in 2008, before even Bitcoin had a price.
Undoubtedly, I would've been fascinated by just reading 'Abstract' and 'Introduction' convincing me enough to start accumulating/saving some fiat to buy Bitcoin at it's first price inception.
I would've been a long term holder, selling high and buying lower doubling my positions, and barely taking any profits before the goal was met.
Had I been someone who invested on Bitcoin heavily from 2009-2011[US$ Parity] no doubt I would've helped newcomers who love and try to understand Bitcoin owning a fraction or even a whole Bitcoin.
Had I been someone who was blessed to buy at those price areas, I would've helped my poor siblings and blood relatives from my family tree to live a more decent life and never worrying about cash anymore in this f*cked up country I live in.
But that is all a dream being seen with open eyes now, a dream I see on sleepless nights and boring depressant days.
Now it's too late for anyone helping someone out when Bitcoin has become a game of greed.
New investors should bear in mind that 1$-100$ investment back then of theirs today which is worth literally 12K, can be a life-changing generations fortune for some in the next Peak.
Thinking that, helping someone out can make it easier to share a fraction, let alone a whole Bitcoin which is unimaginable to take place...at least for my eyes and the reality I perceive and see.
Ahh, how I wish the World was a better place !
Take care every1 and be safe and sound.

We found Solotshi!

lol, he isn't satoshi, the article needs more evidence, that sounds only like a science fiction novel, i don't think bitcoin was created just with the goal of money laudering, all that sound as non sense to me. Remember he was not the only one designer of the code, he start it and tons of devs put their hands on the code.


-  that sounds only like a science fiction novel, i don't think bitcoin was created just with the goal of money laudering

Oh, yea!
Hands down, that threw me off when reading the article also, tho' it may have some 'reasonable' intentions for one tend to believe so.
 Bitcoin is waaaaay more than just that.
The one thing I love about it more is that it has NO BORDERS, IS UNCONFISCATABLE, and OUT OF ANY GOVERNMENT IMPLICATION on IT.
Scarcer and Stronger than freaking Gold in itself!
Now, tell that to Peter Schiff's , whose gold has not given him back any closer gains than Bitcoin has given.
An asset which saw a 900% ROI just 5 days after it's price inception <3
Wish I had come across Bitcoin earlier man, it suckz nuts to find out about it in 2020, coming from a third world country where the price of one Bitcoin is a decent fortune lol not to mention salaries -.-' how pathetic they r'.
Whatver, good luck bro and thanks for commenting, I found it relatable when U commented on the part of science fiction novel lol I laughed at it really




17  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: SATOSHI !!! IS THIS LEGIT? on: October 17, 2020, 12:06:12 PM
Uhh... Another thread for my list.

We can't prove anything about Satoshi Nakamoto!!! The only thing Satoshi has to do is sign a message. It's the only way to prove that he is the one. Check the list and see how many conspiracy theories exist out there.

There are people that have lost their time searching for this person. Don't be one of them.

There are people that have lost their time searching for this person. Don't be one of them.
- Absolutely! I know U are right about this. I don't wanna dig on deeper on the topic of WHO IS SATOSHI, I just found it interesting to share it and see what others think.
I found out about Bitcoin around late May- early June of 2020.. so I'm new here.
Just out of curiosity that's all.
But yeah, I'll take your advice into consideration Smiley
after all, there are a ton of things to explore and waste time regarding Bitcoin and not focusing on who is Satoshi, but as I mentioned, just out of curiosity Smiley
Take care, and I wish U did good with Bitcoin bro, cuz I see on your profile registered date that you are not that new Tongue
Good luck bro and all the best

Bitcoin is not the first digital currency and that people can have the knowledge about digital currency and then copied it created bitcoin that got its popularity up to present.

The guy that was mention OP as I read the article were not convincing in my part and the last part of the article might just be created or something to add or point that he is the one created bitcoin. If that guy had been prison in jail how would he create such design to make mining bitcoin faster? Besides, why would he ask the Judge where he can ask from his friends that can visit or call by him anytime? And why he would continue to do bitcoin when he can't enjoy it anymore. Why don't he accept it that he is satoshi so at least even in jail he could have his name be known through his creation?

In my own opinin bitcoin is created by a group of people and to protect the names of the members of the group they had to keep in silent that may even include the guy as part of those who created bitcoin.


- Well, Bitcoin can be a group of people and Satoshi may have been created as a pseudonym made up to take the attention away from real developers.
However, and who ever Satoshi is if he is a real single individual who had Bitcoin in mind, doesn't affect Bitcoin operating and continue running.
Nevertheless, I've also read articles from various people mentioning that Bitcoin is just a test-phase to see how blockchain technology will go, maybe NSA behind or God knows what.
Because after all, SHA was CIA's technology of cryptography and one should never forget that.
In conclusion, I do not believe Bitcoin is an NSA-CIA project which still has a chance to be one, but I do not believe that to be the case.
All I have to say is that:
Everything is possible! We live in a crooked world.
Now imagine one day a blockchain technology being adapted on a large scale of a Government such as US.. than people would love cash use case more due to having more privacy than a central blockchain

All speculation

Bitcoin

The rumors about Paul Le Roux being the man behind Bitcoin were discussed a few years ago.This is old news and you shouldn't waste your time posting this on the forum.
Nobody knows why Satoshi left the Bitcoin community.This will remain a mystery until the end.
If you really don't care who Satoshi is,then why are you posting such threads?


I do not!
For me posting this thread is not a waste of time cuz after all, we all are here because of Satoshi.
The only reason I decided to post this thread, was because in Le Paul passport in his name was written Salotoshi and that's it.
As for this being an old rumor, I did not knew about it since I'm new in Bitcoin, found out about it not longer than 2-3 months ago...
However, I can not take the adivce of your for granted to not waste time, however I just found it interesting as I mentione

Now, to me, it doesn't really matter who Satoshi is and wether if one day he will show hisself which is not likely because I respect his decision of not wanting to reveal his real Identity.
However, I stumbled upon this topic and took a read and I really found it interesting so I thought
' okay, let's share it on Bitcointalk.org and see what other fellas think about it'

/// here is the URL

https://cryptodaily.co.uk/2020/10/satoshi-who-strong-evidence-indicates-cartel-boss-paul-le-roux-could-be-the-man-behind-btc
Another personality added into the list? Everyone can claim that theyre Satoshi but one thing that can only prove out.

Which is to move those coins into those wallet address that he had then it will completely shut off peoples mouth and believe
on what had been claimed.

Anyone can be Satoshi but the main problem is that they cant able to prove it out.


- As I said, for me personally I don't really care who Satoshi is.. rather I care for what he cared about us leaving behind his idea...
