1421  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: where are private keys stored? on: June 22, 2020, 11:42:00 PM
Hello community. Where does the blockchain store private keys for bitcoin addresses? They must really be stored somewhere. If I have for an example an online wallet with a private key, I think my private key is stored somewhere and not in my PC.

It is stored on your PC only. If not, how will the wallet access the same and give you back your public keys in return?
It's you who need to store them at a safe and secure place like -
1. Paper wallet
2. Hardware wallets
3. Cryptosteel
4. Memory card or USB drive (not just one but few copies)

Glad to hear this and see that a singer has been doing everything in favor of crypto so to make people aware of the powers they can have if they too take interest in crypto and start transacting. At least, Akon took the responsibility and has dedicated himself completely in order to bring crypto at front.
1423  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: FOMO In Crypto; How to identify It on: June 22, 2020, 11:26:15 PM
--snip--

As you can see FOMO traders prefer to pursue the crowd rarther than sitting down and doing their own personal analysis of how far the coin can go.

You literally can't do any personal analysis when it comes to fomo because you'll miss the opportunity. It gives you least time in order to see if the crowd is already buying it more and more or not. But the thing is, setting up a limit buy order or jumping in quickly are the major factors playing an important role here. Even if you hold patience and set up a limit buy, chances are you may get it filled with an immediate dump and see a good rise again while making some extra percentages rather than buying it quickly at its peak as you'll lose greatly in the end. Never go all in during fomo.
1424  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 7 days 10x turnover on sports betting (CHALLENGE) on: June 22, 2020, 11:17:05 PM
I used to take some challenges like these before when I was a Soccer bettor and went always for Over/Under bets and I used to get around 12-15x odds whenever I selected Under 0.5 or bets which had the exact number of goals and an added .5 with it. Those were the times when most of the games went draw with a 0 goal and such games used to make me win great amounts. I believe I should try your challenge but with the type of bets I used to make, or would rather do a parlay?

1426  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price of a "Satoshi" in the future? on: June 22, 2020, 10:09:58 PM
For a Satoshi to be worth a cent, BTC needs to cross a million dollar milestone in terms of USD. For that to happen, I still see many more years to be passed (maybe I won't be living till then) but yeah, possibilities are countless for this. However, if 1 BTC = 1 BTC any time during your whole life, then 1 Satoshi will always be 1 Satoshi only no matter the cost you need to pay for it in USD.
1427  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it possible to live without banks? on: June 22, 2020, 09:56:14 PM
Banks are currently a necessity because without them, the possibility of transacting our money will become lesser as these were set fit in our minds so deep by our Governments since ages that we need to live relying on these banks (even if they exhaust some day completely). I'm biased on your question but yeah, if we, the people, ever decide to completely stop the use of banks and start using crypto only, then I believe we may see a global level of change in the shutdown of banking systems and the rise of cryptocurrencies.
1428  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Las Vegas Casinos are open - end of the Pandemic era. on: June 16, 2020, 11:53:15 PM
Your title should be - Las Vegas Casinos are open - beginning of a new pandemic era.

I believe that if what you said is true and people are flying in a huge number towards Vegas just to play there, then I think it may be / may prove to be their last wish to play there and then die with proud. It's us, the people only due to which this pandemic has taken such a deadly form that the level of fear some innocent people have is far more worst than the pandemic itself and is enough to kill them inside. I think that we need to understand the seriousness of the situation and act accordingly, and stop being completely stupid.

1. How did BTC increase in value to current values from first BTC? compared to stocks/ shares etc.these have underlying value based on income, assets etc.

BTC is a deflationary asset and that's the only reason it gained its current value this high. Another reason is the mining feature attached to it. It costed less to mine BTC in its early days when difficulty was damn low and so the price was low. Difficulty adjusts with the type of machines used to mine BTC which makes it harder for miners to find blocks, this is why it's necessary for traders to keep the value of BTC "even" matching it with miners' costs and even more in order to let them continue their mining.

Quote
2. for future BTC growth, if more people hold on to BTC as an "investment" than use it, does not present any issues?

Satoshi held his coins above a decade and they're still there. Did it make any difference? Maybe a small difference can be seen and that is, price hike because if no one will sell, they'll probably do this for price rise. Hodl we call it.

Quote
3. Volatility and purchasing power - isn't this a potential issue? If I bought a car for example for 50BTC, and the current fiat value was worth $ 50 000, but then in a years time the BTC value halves (or doubles), does that not mess around with underlying value of anything significant you may buy with BTC?

You bought the car with your BTC when it was worth $1k (based on your example) and then if someone else (even if you don't buy a car and) wants to keep it a year later, then it's your problem because BTC is a volatile asset and when you trade anything that works almost as a stock, you need to understand the risks as well. After all, 1 BTC is just 1 BTC in the end.
1430  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Have you ever made a deposit and haven't received it in your account? on: June 16, 2020, 11:25:48 PM
Yes it happens. Slow confirmation speeds and the higher number of confirmation requirements make it possible. Use this - https://bitaccelerate.com/
This website broadcasts your transaction to too many pools for free, instantly and your chances go higher to get a confirmation.
Another thing could be that the recipient exchange is possibly experiencing some technical issues within, so it's always better if you check with the exchange you sent with or the one you're going to receive your coins at. You also need to take care of the fact that some exchanges don't allow you deposits through smart contracts as it'll violate their terms.
1431  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is your Biggest Crypto Regret? on: June 16, 2020, 11:11:20 PM
I've had Pundi X in my stash and I didn't sell it high enough when I had the chance to. My wait was to make around BTC1.5 and that was the exact target I reached with the number of NPXS I had. But greed, greed to make more money made me crazy and i just held it. Then the crash took place because BTC started to fall down. Later, I still held it thinking that the markets will recover and that was my biggest regret.
1432  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: 1% in 24 Hours on: June 16, 2020, 11:05:13 PM
I still don't get it that why do people fall for these things yet?
Isn't the tagline "1% every 24 hours" enough for them to understand that such schemes can't and won't return you anything in real life as such returns aren't only possible at all? I still hear many types of new scams popping up and hate to see when people fall for the type of scams which have been exposed years ago.
1433  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: DONT MARRY YOUR ALTCOIN BAGS on: June 16, 2020, 07:45:26 PM
I remember of a friend who gave up his studies and went all-in on AMP coin (Synereo - if you remember the project). By saying all-in, I don't mean that he invested any money on it but all his time. He worked as a programmer for them and used to earn $300 worth of AMP each month. He did this for at least 3 years, the project did well and he almost became a double millionaire when the spike occurred in markets during 2017 when BTC was $14k and reached $20k. But he kept the coins as it is, didn't sell them when I even advised him to do so and later when the crash happened, the project itself came to an end putting all his work and savings under the grave. So, you need to know when to sell as that's too an important part of trading.
1434  Economy / Speculation / Re: For real? on: June 16, 2020, 07:24:42 PM
Prediction? I don't give a f_(k to them anymore if they are being predicted by an analyst because it's their job to lure people in order to sell their BTC that they bought in at high, at the rates they "expect" BTC to go to (or didn't buy and won't even buy it but just let others follow their shit predictions and hold for an era). Don't give it too much air so that it becomes a balloon and your hopes get burst with the stability/crash in BTC value.
1435  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: [MERIT] NOOB PROBLEMS on: June 16, 2020, 06:58:17 PM
Make some merit-worthy posts and who knows, maybe your first merit will be from my end. I was going to merit you but look, I don't favor people through their begging activities as this will set a wrong example in front of the upcoming newbie generation. Prove that you're worth giving a merit and I'll send you one immediately. Make a noteworthy post and then PM me (yes I allow you to PM me but just for one time). So just put in all your efforts to make a good quality post and let's hope for the best.
1436  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: NSFW - [Idea] TikTok for Adults monetized with Crypto currencies. on: June 16, 2020, 06:28:58 PM
--snip--

I also thought Tik Tok was only for teens and younger people, until I tried it and found that there were tons of older people on there. Most people think I am talking about a 100% sex site and that is not what I have in mind... a lot of people are disgusted with full porn and just want to be a bit more adventurous.

I believe there are all age groups available on that platform serving their shit and you'll only find least (and I mean it, extremely few) videos with something I can call creative. I mean, what the heck can be called as creative in a 15-60 seconds video? Yes, there can be many things, but these people just post a lot of garbage there just to earn some money.

Quote
This will explode if someone post a 60 seconds video and gets say 100 000 people paying $1 to see a little bit more. Most sites wants people to pay loads of money to see low quality porn and that is all over the Internet for FREE.  Roll Eyes

I believe you aren't aware of the fact that after getting certain amount of followers, you can go live on TikTok. And during this live, these so-called ^celebs^ remain online for at least an hour or two, and they do it intentionally in order to collect lots of gifts which can then be converted and cashed out. I think this $1 theory is already working over here and there needs no nudity but just to make your fans happy by engaging with them through your humorous talks.

-snip-
I remember something my teacher said, never go after money if you dont have enough knowledge because you will have difficulty getting it. But pursue enough knowledge so that money will follow you.

This is a true guideline and can be applied by anyone. It's not just a matter of our money joining this forum, because some important knowledge cannot be paid for with money.

True, there's a saying that be competent enough so that success will follow you.

Quote
But the reality is that until now, many Newbie or people who just joined this forum because they want to get lots of bitcoin and get lots of money from the sale of bitcoin, but not balanced with enough knowledge about bitcoin and what exactly the purpose of this forum was made.

The reason why many newbies try to scam or get scammed themselves is this only. They just see "OMG! The value of BTC is $xxxx. Freakin' crazy I need this man!" When they are asked any technical aspects of BTC and its underlying technology Blockchain, then they just say "Yada yada, I dunno broda".

Getting money from campaigns in this forum is an appropriate bonus, for those of us who want to contribute and provide benefits in this forum.

But they think it's just a treat anybody can eat. Wink
1438  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What is the best advice for Bitcoin ATH investors ?? on: June 16, 2020, 05:06:34 PM
I believe he must "lock-down" his coins as he's usually doing till now and just quarantine them for a few more months till we make a new ATH (yes, we are just a few months away from seeing a new ATH price tag for btc as the sentiments are proving it). So, hodl and hodl a bit more longer is my only advice to your friend.
1439  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The 10 Best Crypto Exchanges - Which one do you use the most? on: June 16, 2020, 04:40:07 PM
I do not know where you have taken this information from, but the truth is that your research is not correct. Sorry.
There is no good exchange in your list except for Binance.


He is quietly trying to make some quick impressions on his website by dragging us to visit over there and read the shit content served in that article. I believe this will bring their site a bit more upwards in Google ranking when someone uses these keywords like best exchange for Bitcoins, best exchange, best crypto exchange, etc. and take their blog higher. As well, I don't know if this is their own blog but they are promoting some wallet named self-key in the blog.

Cash out what? Bitcoins?
You can use exchanges to sell your Bitcoins there.

Earning money? You've got some skills or services to offer in which you excel or just outperform against other competitors?
Serve them here. Else increase your rank and try to gain a spot in a signature campaign.
