1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which blockchain has the highest rated TPS? on: January 01, 2024, 04:58:06 AM
Is high TPS important for security of my fund transaction through a blockchain?

I would like to choose a blockchain that can provide me best security, not with fastest transaction time.

Another thing I consider is cheap transaction fee but it must come together with that blockchain infrastructure for my transaction security.

We need to understand many things about the liquidity of Bitcoin and what it can cause in the market.
Is Liquidity related to altcoins, not Bitcoin?

Bitcoin does not have staking pools and it only has Trading volume.
Altcoins have Proof of Stake or staking pools with their promised APYs, and they have Liquidity pools too.
3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's your favourite Alt-Coin, and why? on: November 10, 2023, 03:32:51 AM
My favorite altcoin is Terra Classic LUNC. There are efforts from Terra Classic community to burn the token and reduce its total supply.

https://www.luncmetrics.com/

It's about 1% of its total supply has been burned since May 2022 when the Terra LUNA crash.

Well now Elon Musk is consdiering to take Twitter out of the EU because of the investigation in compliance. It has to do with the new rules created in August called the Digital Services Act (DSA).

I think Elon Musk just is upset with EU watching his moves. I do not really think he will remove it from EU. https://www.reuters.com/technology/musk-considers-removing-x-platform-europe-over-eu-law-insider-2023-10-18/
Elon Musk bought Twitter, changed it to X in name and made many big changes in the company to serve his vision. At the same time, he must keep that social media platform is profitable by keeping advertisers and corporations on the platform.

It will be challenged by many laws, regulations in Europe and other nations and if Elon Musk continues to direct X to be a social media platform for freedom of opinion, the platform will get more legal issues.

I still think that he will not change if X continues to improve in next like 6 months or 1 year but recent news from Europe is not actually good and expected by Elon Musk.

Satoshi Nakamoto never revealed himself to the public, so his absence didn't have a negative effect over BTC's price. With Ethereum, it's different. So many people have associated ETH with Vitalik Buterin these days. If he's dead, you can bet market prices will dump real hard due to panic selling. I know the project has other people behind it, but things won't be the same as they were with Vitalik on-board.
I don't think we must to bet anything because Ethereum suffered fud in the past about Vitalik's death.

Vitalik had to make a self-fie to prove that he was not dead.

Vitalik really want you to know "He isn't dead".

Manipulation is of course everywhere. All you have to do is look at banks being fined for this activity to know it’s a common occurrence. I think this sort of market manipulation is probably present in every aspect of pricing in society. It’s what people do when it comes to money and especially in finance, is not surprising.
Market manipulation affects us more if we are trading but less affects us if we hold our bitcoins.

Price can have big changes on market in a day, a week or a month but after one year, Bitcoin has good price growth that can help us to gain profit. If we don't trade, you can avoid manipulation effects.

Yearly candles with 15 year candles, only has 3 red year candles.
7  Economy / Economics / Re: Russian oil and UK on: July 31, 2023, 04:23:23 AM
There are massive sanctions globally against products from Russia including Russian oil, crude oil to reduce source of income for Russia and restrict their financial flow for their war against Ukraine.

It is a massive sanction efforts from the Western nations but there are always dark markets and Russia actually have some friendly nations to make business deals like China, North Korea, India and countries from Africa.

However sanctions actually reduce their income and their ability to buy and produce more ammunition, armed vehicles because no sanctions can be perfect in reality.
8  Economy / Economics / Re: Inflation is making a mess of my savings. on: July 24, 2023, 03:21:20 AM
The purchasing powers of citizens are getting weak and I don't understand if the consumer protection laws are even effective anymore this days.
You buy something for a certain amount today, in the next one week, that same item you bought  has charged Prince without any reason.
How are you guys pulling it through with this inflation?
Inflation from fiat currencies is bad and it happens in all nations, just more or less, inflationary or hyper inflationary.

You got problems with your savings because you chose wrong assets for your savings. If you picked a fiat currency for your savings, your saving interest annually can not cover the inflation rate annually in your nation.

If you look at alternatives like Gold or Bitcoin, you will have less problems from fiat inflation.

I also don't really understand about china because they ban Bitcoin but HongKong is allowed crypto there and even regulated there and you might know that Hongkong is a special administrative region of China. and they even want to become a web3 hub for the Crypto Sector - https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-07-05/why-hong-kong-wants-to-be-a-hub-for-the-crypto-sector
Hongkong belongs to China but it has a different political, economic and social structures than China mainland. At least till now, the China mainlaind has yet fully controlled Hongkong in all aspect of social operations on the island.

and other cases is Judge rules XRP is not a security in SEC's case against Ripple - https://cointelegraph.com/news/ripple-wins-case-against-sec-as-judge-rules-xrp-is-not-a-security
That is a massive winning for cryptocurrency and blockchain industry. Many cryptocurrency companies and projects can celebrate this winning together with Ripple XRP no matter they like Ripple or don't like Ripple.
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which campaign is better? Bounty campaign or Signature campaign? on: June 26, 2023, 03:30:35 AM
I will also says signature campaigns, based on what this community is all about, that's why this community become one of the well-known as it started this whole signature campaign first that pays in bitcoin and then later it evolved in bounty paying campaigns which is in token.

And historically, there are bounty that didn't end well, becoming a scam, and so the project failed miserably and then participants complaining about the rewards and so there are scam accusations on a bounty campaign. So for me it's better to go for signature campaign first and then measure how effective it is.
Bounties are more in quantity than signature campaigns. If I can not join signature campaigns because I am a newbie, can not meet criteria from signature campaigns, I can choose bounties as my alternative jobs.

I don't think it is bad choice for a newbie but I will consider your advice more. I don't want to join bounties and waste my time and end it with nothing.
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: price of CAKE $50 realistic? on: June 08, 2023, 03:35:24 AM
it will still need about 50 times of its current price though which proven difficult how the situation currently now, it might be realistic if we were in bullish but right now the market seems grim, so realistically such price will not be reached this year.
If $CAKE and $UNI can not recover to like half of their all time highs in 2024 and 2025 bull run market, it will be a very big lesson for investors who believe in top altcoins.

Uniswap and Pancakeswap are very big decentralized exchanges but their tokens fail to keep their prices in this bearish year. It is very big loss for any investor bought those tokens 2 years ago even with prices about half of all time highs.

Bitcoin has died 473 times

From Bitcoin Obituaries - "Bitcoin is Dead" Declared 400+ Times
https://99bitcoins.com/bitcoin-obituaries/
A better way to see how strong Bitcoin is since 2009 is seeing a visual chart for "Bitcoin is dead"
https://buybitcoinworldwide.com/bitcoin-is-dead/

Year over year, there are less callings "Bitcoin is dead" because people just realized that Bitcoin won't die. Less people think it will die.
