BTT does not pay you to write in the forum, it is the Bounty campaign known as the Signature campaign that pays you in cryptocurrencies if you are chosen, keep that in mind.

If you are good at writing and can write articles you will earn a decent amount of money if you join platforms like PublishOX and Steemit. Do remember they have selection criteria.

If you have any other skills then you can create your ANN here - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=52.0
and wait for someone to respond.

Earning money on the internet is not that simple and especially here on the Forum. It takes a lot of hard work and you need to patient, plus you do need exemplary skills in your niche.

As expected ENG won the match by 226 runs and Joe Root the player of the match and he deserves it. Lot of criticism going on about Indian captain for sure and he lost 4 consecutive tests in a row. There is a 4 day break before they play second 2nd test match, can they make it in the same ground?

If there is criticism against Kohli, then it is perfectly justified. First of all, he should stop his bias and nepotism and leave team selection to those who are assigned the job. And secondly, it may be better for him to concentrate on ODI/T20I captaincy. Captaining test matches requires a cool head, which he clearly lacks. Kohli is good only for dramatics, while his tactics doesn't work most of the time. Ajinkya Rahane did a wonderful job as captain in Australia and I don't know why he was replaced for the series against England.

In my opinion I think it is better for Kohli to leave the captaincy for all the format not just Test cricket. He has hard won any international series in all the format as a captain. I think thisnis just the beginning of his downfall.

ROFLMAO..... India in deep $hit right now.. Pant and Sundar gone and Kohli left high and dry at the crease. Now I don't know for how long Ashwin may be able to defend against Anderson and the spinners. But after him, it's a bunch of genuine tailenders - Ishant, Nadeem and Bumrah. Archer must be salivating at the prospect of bowling against them. 69 overs remain in this match, and India is left with 4 wickets. Anderson has got 3 wickets for 7 runs. The amount of reverse swing this guy generate is just insane..... the commentators were calling him as the "sultan of swing" and I'd say that they are absolutely spot on. 

They will try and hold on the crease as long as they can because their primary focus would be to end this match in a draw. If they cannot then they will lose this match and some media houses in India will start pointing fingers on Kohli.

Such post (this one created by OP) have become quite frequent now days on this board. I see many Newbies only focusing on creating topics that does not make any sense but for the sake of getting a Merit they will create topic.

I do not understand OP, how this topic is going to help members understand about cryptocurrency and the issues encountered by them.

Think before creating topics here! & Always do proper research.

Except with the Market Manipulation which he has been doing quite frequently I do not see any other issue. By the way we as a community are aware about Market Manipulation by hidden Whales and after his investment we now know a Whale who is very vocal. The good thing about him is that through his twitter account he has been encouraging other celebrities and companies to invest in Bitcoin.
4126  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Lost phone with bitcoin wallet on: February 09, 2021, 05:05:12 AM
I was very unfortunate to have lost a phone that had bitcoin sitting in the wallet. I was foolish and did not back the wallet up. I am wondering if there is any way to get my bitcoin at this point? I should also mention that I lost this phone 2 years ago and the lost bitcoin is now worth about 60k so whatever I could do to get it back.

Any advice is extremely welcome.
 

Since, you did mention you have not created any back up of your wallet therefore it will be hard for you to get access to it. The other option available for you to use the Private key which I doubt you might remember because this was an incident  that took place two years back. If you had written your Private key somewhere then still you have a chance. Otherwise forget it mate.

I do not know how you got those merits when you still have questions about how bitcoin will help everyone?

I still do not have a clue from where did you come to the conclusion that Bitcoin will make your Rich? What do you mean by Rich? I mean if it means financial independence the you have to start investing in Bitcoin form today and within a span of 10 years you will be in that position.

But, your attitude will never make you one, who will become rich because of Bitcoin
4128  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New kind of coin idea can someone do it please ? on: February 07, 2021, 06:58:34 PM
The problem you invest is the price might fall down.

Solution: coin what always goes up.
If today i buy coin price 500$ then its in the system algorytm created coded this way that it can never go back to 500$ next month or further .
Next month price could be anything higher then 500$
Imagine each month goes 100-200$
Omg thats money
Like every month the price goes up but never lower then previous month.

This way i can be sure im getting only profit can someone pleaee make it ?

Suddenly you wake up and try to create a topic which sounds cool untill people read your lame idea.

Already your trust score shows how much scam you have tried so it is better you slow down and think on how you can create a positive impact in this forum.

If he was registered around 2017-2018, when the merit system was newly implemented, yes, the attitude towards newbies was worse than today. But that is because there were lots of spam ICO bounty. The most important thing is we slowly become more welcoming to civilized newbies, and lots of them have proven able to rank up.

No need to be negative about a bad review as if you never received one. You can't make all customers happy.

Yes around 2017-18 the attitude towards newbies was bad. I also joined the forum at that time. It was very hard to get merits but I did and now I am ranked as Full Member. Things have changed a lot now and it is not much difficult for newbies to rank now in this forum. The key is patience and doing the right thing and asking the right questions

If I am correct for learning solidity you need to have basic coding understanding of JavaScript, python and C++. Therefore you also need to know these languages. You can check this website https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bitdegree.org/learn/learn-solidity/amp for more information.
4131  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Miami To Start Paying Salaries In Bitcoin Soon on: February 07, 2021, 06:56:14 AM
Mayor Francis Suarez of the City of Miami has revealed he is envisioning payment of salaries using Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in his county.

The crypto enthusiast lawyer is championing the adoption of blockchain and related cryptocurrencies. Besides he also suggested that all taxes and service fees would as well be paid in crypto.

Seems interesting, don't you think? Do you think others will follow in their footsteps?

https://mycryptoparadise.com/miami-set-to-start-paying-salaries-in-bitcoin/




How I wish that some establishments and companies in the Philippines could start paying us in Bitcoin. Slowly but surely, we are going towards a true massive adoption in Bitcoin and cryptocurrency payments. Of course, virtual assistants and home-based workers whose companies are mostly online, could offer Bitcoin as payment if they want. But I haven’t seen one traditional company yet in the Philippines (with the exception of local payment service providers) who are paying Bitcoin and cryptos to their employees. Hopefully it will happen one day.

I also wished the same in my country India but unfortunately the government is planning to ban Bitcoin. Seems like the world is going on an upward direction and my country in the downward direction.
4132  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Can I lower bitcoin network fees? on: February 07, 2021, 06:25:32 AM
It all depends how much time you can wait for your Bitcoins to credit the other wallet. Bitcoin fee is equal to time taken for 1 confirmation. I suggest you check mempool.space every time before you do a Bitcoin transaction. It provides the average fee and the time taken for 1 confirmation information.

 it will be interesting to see if India lose the series, what will happen with Kohli remaining captain.  
Even if England manage to draw the series, voices against Kohli are going to be very loud but i doubt if management want to change him at all and Virat is in no mood of stepping down as captain by himself despite failures.

It is high time that Kohli should himself step down like Tendulkar did in the past. No doubt he is good batsmen but he has lot of issues as a captain. India will try to draw this match.

Why do you want to earn interest in Bitcoin when you are getting significantly high ROI every year. Keep your Bitcoin safe in your wallet and wait for it to go to the moon. The interest that you will earn on Bitcoin by investing it on those platforms is significantly very less to what you will be earning just by holding them in your wallet.

Yes I was looking forward to this series as it would of been the first time back for Steve Smith and David Warner after the sandpaper scandal. I think if the virus strain wasn't as bad and was the normal strain then Australia would tour SA. It would of been great if both boards could work out a share of the TV rights but then again, would SA want to travel to Australia with the strict quarantine Australia has for anyone coming from SA, this could also be stopping SA from accepting to travel to Australia.

Yeah.. there is a lot of talk about the new virus strain that has been discovered in South Africa. A lot of people, including Kevin Pieterson and Michael Vaughan have issued statements on this regard. In case of Pieterson, he raised the question whether Australia could have done the same, if the tour was against India. Here is his original tweet:

https://twitter.com/KP24/status/1356905987274379267

But personally, I believe that CA made the right decision by pulling out of the tour.

Australia and India are two of the richest board and they do not need to play a lot of international matches to generate revenue. The virus strain was still present when these two countries were playing matches. Since it was a home series Australia did not have any issue at that time, and the Indian board wanted to cash in. That is why they played and now they only using the virus as an excuse.
4137  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: February 06, 2021, 04:38:41 AM
Joe Root seems to be on track to score a double hundred. Indian spinners have been a disappointment so far, and they have taken just one wicket till now (after conceding a total of 200 runs). Expected better performance from Ravichandran Ashwin and Washington Sundar, as this is their home ground. Shahbaz Nadeem was also disappointing. This is actually surprising because Chepauk has a history of supporting spin bowlers (and I saw dust coming off from the pitch after one delivery from Ashwin).

The way this guy is playing he will score a double hundred easily. He is already at 135 and if he goes like this he might be able to reach his double hundred by today. I do not think this match is going anywhere if India is unable to take his wicket. This test will most probably end in a draw or unless ENG declares their innings today.
4138  Local / India / Re: Updates on crypto ban bill on: February 06, 2021, 04:26:27 AM
India Minister Suggests Modi Government Not Planning Outright Crypto Ban.

The Indian government has hinted how it might move to regulate cryptocurrencies rather than an outright ban.

Talking in the nation’s upper house, the Rajya Sabha, Tuesday, a minister specified that the aim would be to curb illicit cryptocurrency transactions and bar their use in payments.

“The government does not consider cryptocurrencies legal tender or coins and will take all measures to eliminate use of these crypto-assets in financing illegitimate activities or as part of the payment system,” Minister of State for Finance Anurag Singh Thakur said during a question and answer session.
This is positive if this is true. I would like to know the source of this news though.
I also have the feeling that government may not ban btc out right as it doesn't fall under the definition of private currency.
But if they do consider all non government issued crypto as private, then this should be challenged in court.
Positive or negative depends on the way you spin it. Here is the NDTV report with the Q&A between MoS(Finance) and a Shiv Sena MP.

You are right that Bitcoin is not a private cryptocurrency. The ambiguity is whether the Govt is talking about Public crypto as sort of "Publicly owned"/ Govt owned while calling everything else Private. Colloquially, in India, thats the usage. I don't think our colonial hungover overlords would like anything other than pure Govt power to be called Public Service. The IAS cadre officers love to call themselves "Public servants". So, take a hint.

I think this comes after a lot of P2P companies have started giving loans used findings in form of Bitcoins. It not only evades taxes but also makes monitoring of liquidity in this sector very difficult.
Yeah I suppose the politicians don't want to kill their cash cow that the informal loan sector comprising of thousands of these local "co-operative credit societies" are for them. With their control over such semi-formal groups, the chance to obtain money must be far easier than if those people start turning to cryptocurrencies for loan requirements. Its a win-win situation for the common trader but the politician doesn't get his cut.
The more i look at it this way, the more i am sure that the community will have to fight tooth and nail in the courts.


Big exchanges like wazirX, zebpay etc must take this initiative. They should lead us as their voice will be heard.
I know they are also following the developments closely and will do their best as they have business at stakes but given past record of this government, they should be more pro active.
They are doing their bit. It's time we as community should support them wherever possible and in whatever capacity.
I read this news today

Indian Exchanges Launch Campaign Seeking to Avert Potential Crypto Ban
The exchanges have set up websites helping supporters email members of parliament.

If any of you have eny info about email of MPs, please send it to them.
Website is http://indiawantscrypto.net/

Thank you @KryptoKings for sharing this link. I have done my part and I urge other members who are active here to do the same. As a community, we have overcome many hurdles in the past and hopefully, we will be able to overcome this one too.

In the seventeenth century, the price of tulips skyrocketed in the Netherlands.  Then it bursts like a bubble.  Many investors lose billions of rupees.  The price of Bitcoin is also the latest example of Tulip Mania.  Many experts have said before that Bitcoin is a bubble that will soon burst and the price of Bitcoin will go down.

Why Rupees? why not guilder?

Cause Rupees is the currency of India and in Netherland the currency at that time was Guilder. Therefore how does it matter and how can you even relate it to Bitcoin?
