Almost everyone is a slave, even crypto holders are slaves. Humans are enslaved by the senses, desires, and emotions. Humans begin to get used to the situation that befell them. we start to compromise with the circumstances. Humans are still slaves. we are enslaved by pseudo ideologies. We are enslaved by outdated dogmas. We too are enslaved by outdated ideas and beliefs.

So, how we  convince the peoples to adopt digital currency?Huh
One way for digital currency to be adopted by the public is by campaigning positive things about digital currencies, especially cryptocurrencies. Because basically fiat currency and digital currency (crypto) also have similarities. that is, both are acceptable because trust functions as a medium of exchange.

Fiat currency is believed to have value and is trusted as a medium of exchange because it is issued by the government. While crypto, although not issued by the government, more and more people believe it has value, and as a medium of exchange. For example, Tesla, which once bought bitcoin, and discussed accepting payments in bitcoin for the purchase of its production vehicles (though not now) while still subject to regulations in each country, which are still limited to date.

I think yes. We can't hold on to a hungry stomach. At least we have to meet all the primary needs such as clothing, food, and shelter. In my opinion, the hodl strategy is for those who have stable finances. No one wants to force themselves to hodl their assets. Personally, I'd rather sell than not eat
864  Economy / Speculation / Re: At last at last, bitcoin increase more than $41,000 on: August 01, 2021, 06:30:30 AM
China FUD is dead now, no more China affecting the price of bitcoin. Short term pain has eased & we’re moving back up. I don’t know about anybody else but it was horrifying seeing the price drop so hard in May. Looks like we’re back on track now & the bull run is alive & kicking. $100,000+ this year is happening Wink
I think getting to $100K is still a bit far. Although I also expected that. China's FUD is dead, but there will likely be another FUD waiting to hit the crypto market (I hope it doesn't). So, stay alert for issues that play tricks on the market to manipulate prices.
865  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Bitcoin bull market back on: August 01, 2021, 05:17:41 AM
if i was an investor then i would buy as much btc as possible for a long term investment at this time, with such a relatively cheap price then i would mine as much as i can. because i want to get more bitcoins at this moment at a lower price quite cheap. and it is likely to have great potential in the future with me selling it when the price is according to what I want right
That will always be the words from someone that just missed the bull run or those people that have missed buying the dip.

But those are just empty words without any application because if you really want to have bitcoin whether in bull or bear, you'll take action and buy.

Indeed sometimes talking is easy to be able to buy Bitcoin at a cheap price, but the reality is that many people finally don't dare to do it. Because they
are afraid the Bitcoin price could fall even lower, all our hopes and our words to be able to buy Bitcoin at cheap prices become useless, if we don't dare
to do it. My advice when we see the price of Bitcoin fall, don't think too much, it will only prevent us from buying Bitcoin.

This has happened to my friend. Because she hesitated to buy, now she regrets her doubts. Doubt is the biggest enemy for investors. Though, If she bought during a temporary downturn, she would have made a big profit today. I just smiled seeing it.
866  Economy / Economics / Re: What kind type of market player you are? on: July 31, 2021, 05:12:10 PM
I seem to be type one and two. I invest in Bitcoin for the long term and also do day trading on trending tokens. Usually, I use fundamental analysis. The point is, When a project is holding an event, I believe the token will go up. So I bought it before the event started. Usually an airdrop snapshot event.
867  Economy / Speculation / Re: Are people buying BTC @ $27000+ idiots? on: July 31, 2021, 12:44:00 PM
Personally , I wouldn't call anyone who hold Bitcoin an idiot or anything similar so have some respect. I think it's up to anyone to buy and hold as much Bitcoin as he wants at whatever price he wants.

After all , those who bought on 27000$ are now happy and smart because they bought maybe one of the last dips before the actual pump to come. Even those who bought of 60k$ should be smart enough to hold because Bitcoin always recovers, there are no doubts.
That's right. I agree with you. Whatever the price of bitcoin we buy, there is no need to be afraid of falling prices in the market, because sooner or later, the price will recover. And a phrase that often appears on social media indeed says "Holder is Winner".
868  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Getting paid in Bitcoin vs getting paid in Fiat on: July 31, 2021, 08:04:48 AM
Ok, I will try to answer your question from my point of view.

Which type of currency is better for paying employees? Is it Bitcoin or Fiat?
It depends on the employees. Some employees don't know and even care about bitcoin. Few more employees know about bitcoin. So, Employees who don't know and care about bitcoin would be better off getting paid using fiat. Because it's useless to give bitcoins to people who don't know how to use them.


Do you think we'll be able to see more jobs paying Bitcoin in the future? Or will Fiat still dominate the jobs industry?
I don't think so. Unless they work with the bitcoin community. As we know that companies in a country will comply with the laws that have been set by the government. If a country prohibits payments (including payroll) using bitcoin, the company will not pay salaries in bitcoin.


Is working for Bitcoin just like working "under the table"?
This is very subjective. I can't answer for sure
869  Economy / Economics / Re: The Role of Government in Crypto on: July 31, 2021, 06:02:13 AM

questions:

will will government regulations on cryptocurrencies undermined crypto decentralized nature?

Yes, it would undermine the decentralized of crypto, because I think decentralization is the idealist of cryptocurrencies. The crypto community (myself included) is attracted to the crypto world because of the decentralized nature of crypto. In my opinion, the government does not need to tighten regulations let alone take control of crypto users. Instead, the government should use crypto and its technology to build the country's progress.

With the roller-coaster price movement this year, I like to know if what you think about this year's market condition overall.

Are you still bullish despite the huge dump from ATH, or do you think the market will be bearish throughout?

Share your thoughts and what's your basis, it will help everyone to decide.
I'm still getting bullish this year because I bought $20K Bitcoin last October. At that time the price of bitcoin was still $11K. Until now I still hold, and my target is the end of the year. maybe in December, I will sell some of it, because I feel after 2021 ends, there will be a long bearish. This is just my opinion
Congratulations to you. You made a lot of money if you sell it now but I guess you will make more money when the bitcoin price can increase to $64k or even more. Yes, the long bearish somehow can happen anytime, so we should have decided when we should sell bitcoin and wait for the next dump because the drops will always happen. Hopefully, before the dump coming, we can sell it at the highest price and make a lot of money.
Actually, last April was the right moment to sell, but I didn't sell it because I was hesitant. At that time I thought the price of bitcoin would continue to rise, but my guess was wrong. Bitcoin goes down to $30K. But I stayed calm and didn't panic, I holding what I had until now.

Now that the price of bitcoin has been increasing slowly, I hope December will get a great surprise.

Very funny. If you allow yourself to run the risk of starvation, you can get sick. Just imagine, you hold bitcoin and it turns out that the price is positive high and you get a lot of profit, on the other side, you are lying in the hospital because your stomach is injured due to lack of food.

Think better. You can still hodl your bitcoin dan you can still eat. For example, by working and getting a salary to buy food. Or borrow money from your friends.
873  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is key to the future of Twitter, Jack Dorsey says on: July 29, 2021, 03:22:08 PM
Jack Dorsey is indeed very consistent in supporting social media and Bitcoin. He is very optimistic about bitcoin's bright future. In my opinion, this step is very appropriate for the owner of a company like Twitter. Because Bitcoin has the potential to create a new financial infrastructure that is more inclusive and supports underserved communities.
That's because he is the CEO of Square plus he believes in the potential that bitcoin is a big investment for everyone to be able to access. Also, what do you mean by underserved communities? I assume it's the poor people? I think that it's a bit impossible to do that unless poor people are given some sort of help for them to access cryptocurrencies.
No, I don't mean that. Underserved means limited financial services such as banks and other centralized financial services. I don't think I need to give an example and I'm sure you'll understand.

Why do you think that my words refer to the poor? After all, Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies have had a positive impact on the poor.

The price of bitcoin for the next few months is not clear. Some people who predict it will be higher or lower are also uncertain. Bitcoin market movements are unpredictable, so you don't need to buy a lot right away, just buy gradually at certain moments. But my hope, early August is a good month. Hope to reach 50K in early August
876  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Let's make WAR on FUD that are directed at sobotaging our Bitcoin experiment on: May 19, 2021, 09:47:56 AM
People who believe in FUD are morons, we don't need in the cryptocurrency market. those who follow Elonmusk's words will only become polluted polluters in the crypto market. I agree to fight against FUD by sharing mining videos that use renewable energy. and bitcoin mining is not the main influence on carbon emissions.
877  Economy / Economics / Re: 🔴 Breaking News - Elon Musk is going to part with all his Bitcoin BTC on: May 18, 2021, 07:30:50 PM
Better that Elon musk gets out of the bitcoin market. because he can manipulate the crypto market easily. Previously he had dropped the bitcoin price to the $ 42K level, and then he jacks it back up with a tweet saying that "Tesla hasn't sold any bitcoins yet". so the bitcoin price rallied back at the $ 45K level. He only played the market for his gain.
878  Economy / Economics / Re: A Sudden Price Drop in The Crypto Markets on: May 18, 2021, 12:32:47 PM
A sudden price drop in the crypto markets along with the deepening points loss in the dow jones point to a a slow and steady downward trend as of late. Is the bull run of 2021 over? Are these the marks of the beginning of something much worse to come? A major recession, a new crypto winter? What could possibly be next? Any comments and thoughts are more than welcome.
You can blame Elon Musk for trolling the entire crypto community and the whole market for the sudden crash. He announced that Tesla will no longer accept Bitcoin payments because according to Musk, cryptocurrencies are hurting the environment. Moreover, environmentalists were claiming that Bitcoin mining was taking a large toll on electricity, which is solely based on fossil fuels, especially coal, and were against Tesla's option to receive Bitcoin payments.

What an irony, the large scale of battery production isn't that environmentally friendly either, but no one is commenting on that.
Elon Musk can pump or dump bitcoin prices on his own when it suits his interests. It's no surprise that Telsa subsequently announced it was selling some bitcoins and causing the sell-off to become even more fierce. Tesla may have made the US $ 101 million from bitcoin sales in the first three months of this year.
879  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: This isn't the first time the dip has happened on: May 18, 2021, 09:14:14 AM
Of course, this is not the first time. But I don't understand why many people start to panic about this. The price will rise again over time.
they panicked because they were new. it was the first time they felt a price drop like this, plus the FUD made them even more panicked. I am not at all surprised by the decline that Elon musk tweet caused.
880  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: who wants a carbon neutral bitcoin ? Plant a 100 trees for 300 USD on: May 18, 2021, 07:16:38 AM
Carbon emissions are not only caused by bitcoin mining. When you read this post or just surf the internet, it also contributes carbon dioxide to the electricity consumption needed to turn on a PC, laptop, or charge a cellphone.

global warming due to carbon emissions is a shared responsibility, not just the bitcoiner who is responsible. planting trees is a good idea, but it would be better not to consume electricity using fossil energy. companies must use environmentally friendly energy and not cooperate with companies that use fossil energy as the main energy source.

This requires high awareness
