Bitcoin is racist according to the SEC. Heil Satoshi!
We trully live in a bizarre world nowadays  Cheesy

I've read a lot of bullshits about cryptos, but this one is amoung the winners.
I thought I had heard the worst when Greenpeace attacked the Bitcoin network with the slogan: "Change the code, not the climate".

So according to them, Bitcoin (and altcoins ofc) creates financial damages to many minority investors because they don't have the knowledge to assess the risks associated with crypto.

In another words, Bitcoin makes them loosing money because people are lazy to learn where they're investing in...
L@@k at FTX and co...

Quote
We have observed that the volume of, and activity around, crypto assets have grown
significantly in scale over the last five years with very large fluctuations in value.
Many investors recently have suffered significant losses as a result of their
investments in crypto assets. It is estimated that these losses have been more than
$2 trillion.1
As a result of targeted marketing, a significant amount of these losses have been
borne by unsophisticated investors, including many minority investors seeking rapid
investment growth without the knowledge or information to assess the risks
associated with such investments

And

Quote
We believe that virtually all, if not all, crypto tokens are securities and that they, as well as the platforms and
custodians dealing with them, are subject to regulation under the federal securities laws to protect investors.
Accordingly, the offering of crypto asset securities and the platforms trading them should comply with the
registration, disclosure, anti-fraud provisions and other investor protector provisions of the federal securities laws.
We think it is very unfortunate and disturbing that there are legislative proposals to carve crypto assets out of the
federal securities laws and undermine investor protection.
The SEC should continue to be aggressive in bringing enforcement actions against companies that are violating the
federal securities laws in the crypto space, including, issuers, custodians and those acting as unregistered
platforms that offer trading in crypto asset investments.

It's not about being racist   Grin it's just the people who have no knowledge or didn't research to crypto. They are so lazy to research because bitcoin is number 1, they think it's a quick income but suddenly they realize that tlbitcoin is a long term. You can't fix this because it's literally normal so you just watch them how lazy they are.
1362  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: how can we know that a wallet is lost on: April 17, 2023, 01:50:15 PM
there are many threads and news about people losing access to their wallets and forgetting or seed phrases,
and it's better for scarcity of bitcoin,  but how can we know or speculate that the wallet is lost, and it is out of the supply? is there any platform where we can find lost wallets, if no, then it's a good idea to start a website and list every lost wallets.

There's no chance to lost your wallet, you will lost your wallet if you don't remember your password and seedphrase and you cannot retrieve your wallet if you don't remember your seedphrase. Save your password and seedphrase in your file, notebook or some stuff that has a security in it incase someone took your phone or notebook, just be careful my guy .
1363  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: new to bitcoin, don't know how to use on: October 11, 2021, 02:13:27 AM
First thing to do after researching enough to enter BTC, you need to set up an account to hold your BTC. After that its either you will use it to hold or for trading. There are things that you can use btc, some countries are using it as currency while some are not. You need to have a good research about it first in order for you not to lose a big amount of money.
1364  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Bitcoin stolen on: October 10, 2021, 07:01:27 PM
Transferring asset in crypto is irreversible, as  you mentioned I think you got hacked and for the final answer you cant get it back no matter what. This is a hard and costly lesson, you should be more secured in this kind of situation specially when big amount of money is involved.
1365  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens to my bitcoin if I die today? on: October 10, 2021, 06:09:31 PM
Still a bitcoin, without its owner. If you didnt give your passcode or write it if this kind of events happen then your btc will be stored in void. No one can touch it unless you gave it to someone who is close or your relatives to be exact. Better for them to use the asset rather than being nothing at all.
1366  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Future on: October 10, 2021, 04:15:02 PM
Yes, progress and innovation are kept on happening but btc will stay as btc but there are things that will bloom one of this days that involves BTC. Like using it worldwide for daily transaction or payment and others. Lifting ban, specially in some countries and many more.
1367  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can China Ban on Bitcoin have any negative effect on Bitcoin in future? on: October 10, 2021, 02:33:05 PM
Not anymore, people will just neglect it due to its past behaviors like this. Price manipulation with a sudden dump. The only effects of it is the users of it in china. It will be hard for them to use it anymore and may result to just abandon it.
1368  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why did you miss Bitcoin? on: October 10, 2021, 11:13:11 AM
I think commitment is the first thing you should have first, without this you will sell at little profit or either at loss you will panic sell. After having a commitment to btc, you need to research in order to avoid pulling your assets at little lost. There is no time in missing btc rather you need to have a good timing in buying and hold, with a little research you can do a buy and sell method specially if you have time to watch the daily price. Other reasons are welcome too, I need to know too why others miss btc.
1369  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is the biggest threat to Bitcoin? on: October 09, 2021, 05:44:44 PM
There are things that makes an impact in bitcoin but some are not should be considered as threat. Here are the examples that I could think of: FUD, Price manipulation, Pump and Dump and banning of it in some countries. If a news suddenly spread with among these examples, the price of btc will suddenly be affected most of the time is to decrease. Feel free to add additional information regarding to this.
1370  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I predict stricter regulations for bitcoin and the cryptospace for 2021-2024 on: October 09, 2021, 03:06:31 PM
First of all our country doesn't have any regulation if you talk about crypto. So the result is that we are free to do what ever we want, but if regulations are implemented which too low to happen, I think people will lessen the time in using crypto or exploring it. However if it goods show result, then it will serve as an advertisement for those who didn't knew it at first.
1371  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Reason why businesses should accept Bitcoin payment on: October 09, 2021, 01:43:24 AM
Do note that the company needed to run their own node to achieve the decentralized nature, if they are using the third-party payment gateway, they are not truly achieving decentralization. The volatility is also a double-edged sword for the company, some might want to store the payment in crypto, on another hand, some needed fast cash to operate it.

I do not imply and discourage its hard for businesses to accept Bitcoin. As a matter of fact, there is some payment gateway that has a FIAT conversion feature to mitigate volatility. My take is, whether a business accepts Bitcoin payment or not, it's a multi-variate problem that needed to be solved by the company self-interest. Not to mention, in some countries, regulatory issues are the obstacles.

Good analyzation, for me, the business that will operate with btc as their second option of currency needs to understand the possible result of losing during operation specially in bullish day of trading it. But if the business has a good other income then saving btc for the future is also a great option for them. Either way, this will be an opportunity for btc to be recognized for those who dont know it yet.
1372  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin the hedge against inflation on: October 08, 2021, 07:47:42 AM
Development and progress keep on happening in BTC throughout the decade while for its counterpart that is being printed and will result to a slowly increase in inflation. BTC proves to be a good escape if you are going to invest in an asset with an assurance of growth to it.
1373  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does Bitcoin have any real value? on: October 07, 2021, 11:29:01 AM
Any real value, if physical then it doesn't have. But if you are talking about it being asset then you have the answer and it is YES. People are investing in BTC and kept it ever since for potential growth in its price. If you want it to have a physical value, then btc being a currency must have a chance to have a physical form.
1374  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Iranian Bitcoin Mining Ban Lifted after four Months on: October 06, 2021, 12:09:10 PM

Iran is one the biggest producer of oil in the world and there annual revenue of oil sales is 60 billion USD, I don't know why are they facing shortage of electricity. One possible reason for BTC mining ban may be that Iran government want BTC miners to pay electricity bill of commercial user (like payed by shops and industrial users) not as a domestic user.
[/quote]

Exactly, they do not want the operators to gain profit without paying the right amount. Addition, I think that they don't face electricity shortage rather they want to maximize the production of electricity without loss. So in order to do that they regulate and studied the electricity consumption of miners and the result is clear that they are just normal consumers at all.
1375  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if stop believing about bitcoin ? on: October 06, 2021, 03:55:58 AM
Btc never ever have taken a physical appearance but you can literally see the tangible things that can be bought through it. Its been 10 years already and look at the pioneers who hodl since the first day, they already have physical assets as of now for sure. The fact that BTC doesn't have a physical appearance makes the security strong too, it cannot be hack easily, stolen or mob.
1376  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you want to see Bitcoin legal in your country? on: October 05, 2021, 03:04:24 PM
Legalization in my country will only serve as an advertisement for the nation. We are free to do what ever we want with it with no regulation and possible ban. However due to this, scam is very prone specially to the newbies. Its sad that only few are gaining interest in crypto and they are focusing in other things. If BTC become legal, I hope many of our citizen will be knowledgeable about it.
1377  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do many mainstream economists always oppose Bitcoin? on: October 05, 2021, 06:14:36 AM
Its been 10 years and Economist cant even explain how a non tangible asset kept on growing. The hate comes with their prediction and their study but they are proved to be wrong. I think they need to study about crypto in order to give a definite answer and the hate will be replace with knowledge about crypto/btc
1378  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin 10% increase in a day - why? on: October 05, 2021, 02:40:50 AM
BTC is very volatile and we don't have any solid reason for the increase. However as a investor hearing something from an influential person that BTC will not be ban is a good thing and reassuring. After all those bearish times I think it will eventually turn into a bullish for a long time maybe a new ATH.
1379  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What happens to my bitcoin if I die today? on: October 03, 2021, 03:18:31 PM
Well if you didn't share the key to anyone then it will just sit in your wallet forever with no one to use it even the value/price goes up. Like inheritance, its better to save it in your safe case(the wallet password/key) so that when someone checks your safe the btc stored can be use.
1380  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why hoard Bitcoin? on: October 03, 2021, 12:59:29 PM
Hoarding BTC is an excellent choice specially when you are looking forward to the future. You can also check out other coins when hoarding in and buying at its lowest price is always the best. With a good research and knowledge about btc, you can always save your money and buy it at Dip, so that you can maximize efficiently your profit.
