But when I checked the payment options. I don't see any Bitcoin or crypto payment alternatives. How does one earn crypto reselling a service that does not offer checking out via crypto payments.It does not make sense to me.

There are a lot of resource online that you can use to help you learn more about Bitcoin. What matters most is your will to learn something new and also look up those resources. Most of them are few of charge.

You can start with this (https://learnmeabitcoin.com/) and then this (https://www.lopp.net/bitcoin-information.html)

It's always good to include links of the website or app you are referring to. There can be so many similar apps or websites with similar names. Some could even be impersonating. But if it's the app with the link shared by one of the members, then I suggest you look at the different reviews, such as on Google play.

1. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sat21.global.pro&hl=en

Focus should be on the negative reviews. The mos honest users are the ones who usually leave the lower stars.

The posting style is strikingly similar. I will be damned if they are not Alt accounts. Polo7 tried to make a comeback using Polo7back but was quickly reminded that he was evading ban since polo7 is already banned permanently from the forum

Polo7 has a habit of trying to promote Ponzi schemes too - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5224444.0, so @stompix's findings are right. He definitely has more alts lying around.

Hello, a person reached me and he wants Flash USDT token, that is, he wants fake usdt.

How can I get support on this issue or who does such a thing.
Good you know that it's fake USDT. He wants the flash USDT to scam someone or a group of people. There is no other reason for acquiring the Flash USDT. By you supporting such a person means you are also part of the scam... or perhaps you are the one planning to scam under the disguise of someone else looking for the fake tokens?

How about this phrase "Desperate times calls for desperate measures" ? Don't you think it applies too?
That phrase usually works if it's a do or die.... if you completely have no choice. In trading, you always have a choice  Wink

<...>
In other words, do not buy due to FOMO or panic sell if you are a long term hodler. Patience is key at times depending on your strategy. Above all i think the one of the biggest players in trading is risk management. Any form of trades we make are a huge risk. The question is how do we manage the risk if things go south.

@bittab I wanted to bring to your attention that BUSD was phased out by most exchanges, and it should no longer be available as a payment option under cryptocurrencies for your service.
28  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: TRADERS are not UNEMPLOYED on: April 28, 2024, 11:58:19 PM
Trading is risky like gambling and it should not be seen as a job.
Do we have stop losses in gambling as well like it is in trading?  Grin

I still believe Gambling and Trading are not the same. Gambling is perfectly for fun and entertainment for those who have some money to blow off. If you get into gambling thinking you will be earning some daily, weekly or monthly income, then you are going to be f##Ked

Trading on the other side can be a very decent "job". I mean, look at all those historical stock trading giants and corporations. They made or make money, not by trading for fun or entertainment, like someone who enters a casino in Las Vegas without knowing how the night will end.

Stake signature campaign has of late been paying in USDT and was consequently moved to the bounty board by the mods since they are no longer a bitcoin paying service. Perhaps it's time to include it on the list @tranthidung?

31  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: 📝[Discussion topic] Overview of Bitcointalk Signature-Ad Campaigns📝 on: April 28, 2024, 11:31:05 PM
Any thoughts on that?
It's the right thing to do.

Quote
I understand the logic, but I wouldn't be surprised if other major campaigns also decided to switch to stablecoins (due to the unpredictability of BTC fees), in which case, either Mitchell would have to change the policy for his Overview thread,
Why would he? The list is strictly for Bitcoin paying signature campaigns

or we could need a new summary (perhaps in the Altcoins section) that includes all types of campaigns.
That lists already exists. Maybe it just needs to be updated

Signature campaigns paid in stable coins/ top altcoins like LTC
32  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: No risk no gain on: April 28, 2024, 07:41:23 PM
I regretted very much why I didn't take a risk. If you want to do something, you have to take a risk, nothing happens without a risk.
Sounds rather contradictory. You told your bother to invest in Bitcoin, but you didn't invest in it yourself, and now you are regretting. It means you also never believed in Bitcoin to begin with and only got to realize that you missed an opportunity when thing are now looking well
33  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why is United States going against custodial lightning wallets? on: April 28, 2024, 07:07:23 PM
The lightning wallet provider will cease to provide services to US people on May 3.
How?
What would stop a US citizen to go here:
https://github.com/ACINQ/phoenix/releases
download the apk and run it?
Perhaps they will go after the GitHub profile with its repositories as well and have it banned, like they did with Tornado Cash. Those GitHub chaps are cowards too, if that's the correct wording. Maybe they could host the files on decentralized alternative platforms to GitHub, but it will certainly reduce their popularity by miles.
34  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why is United States going against custodial lightning wallets? on: April 27, 2024, 07:52:03 PM
I'll put them somewhere in the middle. They claim to be non custodial on their website and have done so for many years, but to function as a lightening network wallet they do have some levels of custody.
I am not so familiar with the lightning network. One time I wanted to get accustomed to it, then I realized that one had to open and close channels which  could be costly or something along those lines. I gave up

Could it be that the rest of the wallet is noncustodial, but then the part that has lightning network integration is custodial to some degree?
35  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Samourai Wallet seized by the feds on: April 27, 2024, 04:58:08 PM
There were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq prior to the US invading that country and taking down Saddam, right?  Right, guys??

Governments are the biggest liars, the biggest thieves (with banks in second place), and unfortunately since they make the laws and enforce them and instill fear in their citizens' hearts, they get to do whatever the fuck they want to. 
Absolutely right! Everything about Government makes me want to puke. From their policies, propaganda and enforcement. If only there was a world where Governments are illegal. Maybe that would be a much better world for freedom

Governments are basically a cartel living off people's hard-earned money through tax and still use the same revenue to threaten, imprison and kill their own Citizens.

They hate everything they don’t control & it might get worse eventually. Don’t let this kind of thing scare you away from self custody though, they can’t take Bitcoin off you if they aren’t able to tell where it is. I hear there are a lot of unfortunate boating accidents happening lately.
Next they will be coming for and seizing servers of any noncustodial wallet because they are not KYCing their users  Grin
36  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Small general trading place? [I wouldn’t know as I’m fairly new to this] on: April 27, 2024, 04:23:06 PM
Hello people!

I would say I’m fairly new, so my knowledge of recourses regarding crypto are low. I was wondering if there is a general place where people trade small amounts of crypto. Like I was thinking about just purchasing 1$ worth of Bitcoin or Litecoin, but I’m not sure where to start. At the moment I don’t have much crypto in the first place, mine only values around 1cent, so if something big happens with a positive effect on the currency, the value would hardly increase, at least I think so. Again, I’m fairly new to this subject.
The minimum order you can make in most exchanges that I know is $10. I am not sure if there are any they offer lower amounts. The good news is that almost all these trading platforms offer demo trading in their apps and websites (Binance, Bybit, phemex, MEXC etc.). Since you are trying to learn the basics of trading, Demo trading should be good. The next step is using small amounts of real money to get self-discipline and keep your emotions in check when trading.
37  Other / Meta / Re: Mixers to be banned on: April 27, 2024, 03:51:08 PM
Yes, administration has taken some measurements and all I am saying is that it should be understandable for everyone. If we don't want this forum and its owners to be haunted for the sake of additional income that mixers signature campaigns provide, then we should be okay with the rule that includes banning of bitcoin mixers. This forum is still pretty much a very welcoming for freedom of speech, only mixers are excluded and there are very fair reasons for that.
Kind of weird how mixers are banned, but scam is allowed here  Tongue

Welcome to a new world  Grin

Can you please explain to me why Epochtalk was even launched?
You can find some of the reasons in this post - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=523070.0 (That was a decade, 1 month and 1 week ago  Shocked )

I am a little newbie on this forum compared to many people. By the way it doesn't really make any sense, admin starts a new forum software development, probably puts some money in it and hires developers, then abandons it in the middle development process and doesn't even update the SMF. I am not critiquing theymos, I am just curious about that.
Just like you and many people, I think that this forum will be like this until theymos hesitates to pay server expanses.
He gave these reasons, but that was 5 years ago. Perhaps it's the last post I know where he talked about the new forum software progress. Maybe we will wait some two or three more years for another update on the progress.
The things blocking a transition from the current software to the new software are:
 - There hasn't been enough testing. I think that immediately after transition, a variety of small missed features, bugs, and performance issues would crop up. As a result, if the transition happened now (which is technically possible!), I'd expect the post-transition user experience to be poor for months while these things are fixed, which I don't want.
 - I am the only bitcointalk.org sysadmin and on-demand programmer, and I'm used to the current software. Furthermore, I need to frequently make changes to the current software, but each change I make might require alterations to Epochtalk, which is problematic.
 - The current PHP software, while ugly and sub-optimal in many ways, performs well, especially since I have extensively modified the backend to add features and improve performance. So I don't feel much urgency.
 - The data-transition procedure still has a few known minor bugs.
38  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Miners revenues drop to the lowest in years as Runes fomo fades away on: April 27, 2024, 02:41:07 PM
Price can increase after the halving but Conspiracy theory like price will double after the halving, as compensation to miner loss in block subsidy reward, it is untrue. Bitcoin miners have their income not only from Bitcoin block subsidy but also from Bitcoin transaction fee.
How is it a conspiracy theory when it has happened some months every other time halving has taken place historically?

In the lastest block, Subsidy + fees = ‎3.491 BTC ~ $220,549. That can easily turn into $440K when the Bitcoin price doubles, as it usually does during the bull run.

Before the halving, Subsidy + fees were averaging between 6.5 to 7 BTC per block. Tell me how much that was in fiat value when BTC was around $20K - 30K?

You can't deny that the bitcoin price uptrend also helps so much. That's why bear markets are a nightmare to miners.
39  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Miners revenues drop to the lowest in years as Runes fomo fades away on: April 26, 2024, 11:57:42 PM
What are the implications for this, are home miners going to get wiped out by huge companies that have access to investors capital and cheap electricity?
I don't think so. This would have happened a long time ago if it was the case

Quote
Would that be a danger to centralization?
Nope

Quote
Or are miners going to try and manipulate the fees and the mempool creating fake scarcity of space and driving the fees up to compensate for what they have lost?
Can they even do that as I saw people in the mining section saying ?
In theory, an uptrend in the Bitcoin price should be able to compensate for the drop in the halving of the mining rewards. thge bitcoin price in 2017 isn't the same as it is now, is it?
I don't think manipulation is possible.

It's an exchange for shitcoins.

It's mostly popular with newly launched minable coins. That's how I got to know about it. About the quality if it's service, I am not sure but since it's a low-key exchange. Proceed with caution. Maybe send in small amounts to be exchanged to test it out.
