They can ban people from trading in exchanges through regulation of each ISP existing out there, but people can still use VPNs to bypass that. Not sure about the latter, but people can still just code without the use of the internet and again if it would be prohibited to be listed in an exchange due to bans of their ISP, VPN would still be there in the end.

Adapt to the whole internet itself, OP and not just here in the forum. Smiley

Do you play video games? In some gaming community, you'll encounter a lot of people saying "git gud", "nub u suk" "ur mom is _____ ", "*insert racist words here*" and I am not sure how you take that word if someone told you that when you are not performing well in your game.

You mentioned that you're thick-skinned person outside the internet and that would be a perk for you to adapt around the internet, especially that you don't even know nor see the person you're interacting with around the internet.

It has been bullish all this time along, OP.  In smaller picture, it would look like that it is bearish just because it went from 60k+ down to 30k+.
Back then, 20k was the most discussed price to be the possible ATH of Bitcoin, but look at it right now on where it led to. Even at around 25k+, I would still consider it bullish.

I even recall that Facebook banned it as well while Google did it. I am not even surprised that other social media just stop banning these crypto ads, not just Bitcoin. They just keep coming back. I mentioned in this thread previously one example of those fake blockchain sites in Google Ads, and I am not surprised if those keeps popping up still.

In other social media sites, people would just keep using URL shortener and people would still fall for it. I was even mentioned by a fake custodial wallet page that I usually use when I pay my bills claiming that I won their giveaway, but it was all just a phishing site mostly using Weebly hosting service because it is free. Just report those website to whatever hosting site they are using, and not to Google. I recall people saying that Google don't even take action immediately on those people reporting such malicious ads.

No. They're different. BTC is decentralized and you should already know that.
Gold is regulated by feds. If you hodl Bitcoin in a non-custodial wallet, it is your BTC. It is yours forever, well not literally for obvious reasons, OP.

Now you're also comparing ETH with BTC? They're also different. BTC has no role? Read about "store of value", OP. ETH is mostly for Smart Contracts. You can mention ICO, IDO, IEO, NFTs, DEFI and whatever offering comes next, but remember back in 2017, a lot of ICO turned out to be just scam.

This reminds me of those alts that got caught abusing bounty and they claimed that they are even one whole community of bounty hunters.
I can't quite pinpoint the exact post in Known Alts of Anyone thread.

Never mind. Found it.

JollyGood already has a thread warning those users wearing their signatures and participating in the SC.

[REQUEST FOR ATTENTION OF: All betking.io Signature Campaign Participants]

It also includes the threads of why it is a scam as well. That is sufficient enough to warn all users to not participate in the said campaign.

Not to be pessimistic but how sure are you to say that Bitcoin will be in an "unattainable price" in the future.

1 BTC is equal to 1 BTC regardless. Buy Bitcoin when you can only afford one. Take advantage of the dips, but don't force everyone to buy a whole Bitcoin.

jackg pretty much mentioned it.  From the pattern it made, I am pretty sure that sooner we might be able to get back to the last ATH that we got.
We'll see how it goes in the succeeding months, but I wouldn't be expecting too much if you need my answer, OP. Smiley
It is still stabilizing above 40k, so there is that.

Well certainly because many Gen Zs and millenials already have awaken to see these technologies when they were born. Back then, it was kind less techy yet that is why the so called "boomers" aren't really used to Bitcoin and they won't invest to it although I see a lot of popular people that are really old still invest to Bitcoin just because they have the background to stock market/trading.

They went silent in my news feed right now, so I guess that is that for the post-Musk era, more like the whole era of that hype  over crypto due to Musk. Bitcoin is kind of just how it is right now and it does not matter if we don't get back to 64k+ soon, because surely the increases that Bitcoin shows right now is showing signs.
I just hope that there wouldn't be another celebrity hype to it.

I am even guilty of this. Cheesy
But to save it off, I am still using my BTC to send out money to my distant friend outside of my country. Without the authorities involved, I am able to send it without getting involved into too much trouble like having expenses with my transportation plus the fee that I would potentially pay for due to the service done and I know we have mining fees but that does not even matter to me.

2113  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What hatred do people have for Bitcoin? on: August 06, 2021, 08:11:52 PM

This kind of reminds me of another friend of mine that does not purely hate Bitcoin, but just isn't educated on what is it really. I asked her once if she knew about Bitcoin and she was like "oh that one scam coin I hear a lot". I was like "bruh" moment there when I heard her first thoughts about it.

Thing is even those people you mentioned that have positive impacts to crypto do not even have a single idea to what the heck are they even saying. This is why most of the time, I stay away from Twitter and Reddit forum when it comes to discussing something pertaining Bitcoin or any sorts of crypto coins out there. There's a lot of toxicity outside this forum when it comes to crypto.

Using the phone alone already attracts attention to a lot of people around especially now that you mention the time of the day. This is why at evening, I tend to just keep my phone in my pocket at all times even if I am really wanted to check on something and for this instance, it would be like me checking the price of Bitcoin. Even if it is just a quick "btc to usd" search in Google, I am not even risking it.
2115  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: some people uneducate about Bitcoins on: August 06, 2021, 07:59:29 PM

I am gonna be honest. If you ever mentioned Bitcoin to me back in 2013, I would indeed say something negative to it. I was not knowledgeable enough that year that Bitcoin isn't "illegal coin". Back in my thoughts into Bitcoin was that it was only used in the dark web by "those people" you name them.

If you ever stumble upon a friend of yours that has the same thoughts as my thoughts back in 2013, clarify it to them in the nicest way as possible and they might be another Bitcoiner soon.

Somehow I missed the part of downloading books from Google since I was mostly a watcher so that I can see how traders interact with the UI. I was confused at the first glance in my first day in Binance, and I was not sure how would I use each indicators provided there.
2117  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Why buy bitcoins and not altcoins? on: August 06, 2021, 07:56:36 AM
~
There is data that supports it below you, OP. Adding it up, many of the altcoins are just gonna end up a shitcoin that is why many just prefer you buying Bitcoin over alts.
Most of the solution are already provided by Bitcoin so why bother buying other coins? Other still buy Ethereum for Smart Contracts which somehow differentiates it to Bitcoin.
2118  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The regulation of the cryptocurrency market will become more serious on: August 06, 2021, 07:49:22 AM

Money laundering has been everywhere even outside crypto, and I am surprised it took them still a lot of years to do such regulation to this. Not that I would expect that it would still reduce the shitcoins that are in the market right now, but still it would somehow reduce those projects that are just up for quick profits.
2119  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: the pandemic is still going on.. on: August 06, 2021, 07:46:16 AM

It is not sadly. It is not even a good way to promote such projects, because probably everyone would be just in it for free money and they would hunt another airdrops to get their shitcoins also. Even if you do those 3 you mentioned to join an airdrop with dummy information, you still have wasted your time doing all those fill-up form only to not still get paid in the end. It will be hella exhausting in the end, only to get shitcoin that wouldn't even last.

If you're continuously getting losses for months, then there might be something wrong with what you are doing. The main question for that is do you keep doing the same thing and are you even learning from whatever mistakes you made in those losses.
Loss on few days? Sure, okay but did you see where you got it wrong?
