The problem is that this is a mistake made by new investors at the end of the Bitcoin bullrun, and they rarely read before making a purchase. I saw the peak of this in 2018, when 10 new threads appeared every day asking "what coin to buy for less than $1". And crypto portals, instead of teaching, provided what the reader was looking for, recommending shitcoins as long as they had a low price per piece.

My thread about this written in 2018.
difference between 1$ coin and 1000$ coin

In general, November, December and January are some of the best months for investing. Besides, the upcoming bitcoin ETF and halving means that there are really a lot of green flags and I don't know why to sell now. in my opinion it's best to hold now until the ETF releases. Untill the official news, in my opinion we will see green months. The day of the announcement will be a day of a short pump and then months of profit-taking for those who are now buying, so it will certainly be a good place to open short or at least realize some of the profits from currently held positions.

tell this to all those who have been catching tokens related to this technology for 6 years and have been losing all their capital. And in my opinion it is still too early to invest in such projects by at least 5 years considering how slow the SEC is. And also the fact that when licenses will be issued, the first in line for them will probably be Blackrock and Fidelity, and not projects like Atlant (ATL) - a project that promised tokenized real estate 6 years ago and has not yet delivered, the price has dropped by 99.9% (10$ left from 10 000$ investment) and its fully diluted market cap equals 150k$.

There is no way to check whether it is a scam. Think for yourself. a random person releases a token (5 minutes of work to create a smart-contract) and creates a website (probably rebuilding a website from a previous scam, which takes him 1-4 hours). This is all the work done by the person who issues the new token. And are you supposed to trust him not to cheat on you? that he will deliver the product at all even though it is paid in advance and has no formal obligations?
everything can be cheated. Traffic on Twitter, Telegram, Medium can be bought (probably with money from previous scams). Everything on the website may be a lie.

some scammers have entire teams that allow them to launch 10 projects a day only to escape with the money on the same day. Stop falling for this kind of thing. instead, look for something that already works, something that you want to use yourself, something that has a large user base and generates profits, and yet is priced inappropriately.

This is how I made 30x that way. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5208144.msg53299809#msg53299809

hocus pocus, magic spells and this is how the investor earns 5x just because the developer of the new meme coin (AKA Scam coin) promised him so. This is not a scam at all, you can trust me... XDXD

I warn everyone against buying these tokens. This is another thread about this token, and another one without specifying what specific utility this token has, and promises of 5x right from the begining is a big red flag. Nobody gives away money for free, especially not random people from the Internet who operate in the scamcoin industry.

pepe is one project that pumped that hard out of 100,000 that failed just after launch. And it was certainly not announced this way, it just started quietly and people found out about it after the market operator (market manipulator) had already made 100x pump. The risk/reward of investing in scamcoins is definitely not worth it.

The definition of a politician I saw on Wikipedia some time ago - "a specialist in gaining and maintaining power". This is what politicians do and specialize in. they have no idea about anything other than social engineering and manipulation mechanisms. They specialize in how to speak to influence as many voters as possible. Unfortunately, this is what democracy inevitably strives for - populism. And this is exactly how we should look at all election promises. For carefully calculated statements intended to target a precisely calculated group of voters who are not yet decided.

Currently, there has been talk of a bitcoin ETF for years. Something so prosaic and banal in its construction that it is hard to imagine that the SEC could ponder over it for years. BUSD was withdrawn because the SEC considered it a security even though it did not meet any of the Howey test criteria. BUSD is a stablecoin and not "an investment product that is purchased to make profits". we know it, the SEC pretends they don't. So don't be surprised that I am skeptical that in the next 5 years it will be possible to legislatively push through something as large and complicated as shares in a skyscraper in New York in the form of an etherum token, all thanks to some small project that has just released its token to obtain financing.

I have been familiar with this topic for at least 6 years and I already know countless people who, excited by this technology, joined projects that were supposed to deliver it. Unfortunately, the ending was always the same. The project hit the legislative wall, the hype faded, investors left and friends were left with a bag of worthless shitcoins. I'm afraid that Wall Street won't give up here and won't let the crypto boys take too much of the pie


Its much much easier just use exchange app or dex from trust wallet.

Avoid short-term investments. 90% of traders lose within their first year. You don't want to be among them. Focus on what generates profits for you (your job) and specialize in that, and leave trading to gamblers (capital providers) and professionals (capital recipients). Instead, build a bulletproof investment portfolio that isn't all crypto. a portfolio consisting only of crypto is extremely fragile. Currently, US bonds and gold seem to be a good pillar on which to base most of the portfolio. ETFs like NOBL will also add antifragility to a portfolio. The rest can go to DCA in Bitcoin. Avoid getting into shitcoins and don't fall for pyramid schemes promising hundreds of percent apy.

I'll join what the above people said. You can't make money on this, it has no real repeatable impact on the price. Usually such a whale has an agreement with a large buyer or plans its sale so as not to move the price too much. The only thing that may affect the price is a massive FUD attack from the largest mass media portals (like cointelegraph), which will spam about such a transaction.

Wydaje mi się, że mało kto będzie sprzedawał na miesiąc/dwa miesiace przed grubym newsem jakim jest bitcoin ETF, w statystycznie najlepszych miesiącach dla giełdy (rajd świętego mikolaja i efekt stycznia) przy zbliżającym się halvingu. Zielonych świateł wydaje się aż podejrzanie za dużo. Moim zdaniem przed nami zielone miesiące aż do newsa o ETFie.

The first thing is to read a few books that will help you expand your horizons and show the shallowness of such a basic need as the need to have a new gadget. I recommend, for example, Harrari (who calls capitalism and consumerism new religions that thies their best to convince people that the source of happiness is spending). Secondly, books about stoicism. Moreover, it might be worth consulting a psychologist, because compulsive shopping is a disorder that can be treated.

W jakich krajach to wchodzi? Mam na myśli to, czy gdzieś w okolicy będzie może jeszcze jakiś kraj do którego będzie można się wybrać na wakacje i tam zrobić kilka wypłat, czy w 2025 już wszystkie luki będą połatane i jedyne co nam zostanie to opuścić spodnie po kostki?

You talk 4 times about this new shitcoin having some "utility" but you never mention what it is.


"Crowdfunding", i.e. a crowd of 'investors' tricked by a fraudster, will sponsor his new car, right?

"Lottery" i.e. "investors" thinking that they are investing in the project are actually gambling on a game similar to crash (devs will do a rugpull with all the capital in random time)

If you are looking for a project like BNB Tiger, i.e. a project with no utility and just a name, with a fraudulent smart contract full of red flags, which may end in a rugpull at any time, then don't waste your time looking. Buy the first meme coin you find out of 1000's that are created every day (and 999 goes to zero next day). You'll lose your wallet anyway. At least you'll save time on "research".

and as usual, nothing happened. it is amazing that bitcoin options expire every month, every month there is FUD related to this (it is completely unknown why FUD and not FOMO, because options are traded in two directions) and every month nothing happens and yet next month again the same. Articles and threads like this one are popping up again.

Mówimy tu tylko o problemach z rozliczeniem kosztu zakupu tak? Czy o jakiś wiekszych problemach w stylu udowodnij nam, że zarobiłeś to na DING DONG, bo inaczej zabierzemy całą kasę. Bo zwykle jak ktoś robi majątek z niczego przy pomocy DING DONG, to robi 100x z 1000$. Wtedy rozliczenie kosztów to niewielka różnica dla podatku. 19 000$ podatku bez rozliczenia kosztów i 18 810$ podatku przy rozliczeniu kosztów. Można przełknąć.

Don't you think it would be better for them to start with a completely new exchange? Why drag along the baggage of such negative associations? They defrauded people and deprived them of their funds during the bear market bottom. If someone had $100,000 there and planned to buy BTC @ around $20k, today they would have $75,000 in profit alone, which FTX deprived them of. even if they give back what they stole, they will not give back the "potentially lost benefits". people have already had their funds blocked for a year. This is damage that cannot be swept under the rug. This stock exchange will not recover and 400 mln $ marketcap is way to much for such a swamp.

Only it makes sense in the case of a smartphone and compromising photos on it. Of course, it would be better for a thief not to have them, because he can use them for blackmail or publish them on the Internet. Another issue is the only copy of the private key. In this case, whether it is destroyed by the device or used by a thief, the effect is the same for you - loss of crypto.

A difficult password and a time limit of 1 attempt per day is a better solution. There is always hope that the thief will be caught and the device will be recovered.

the current marketcap is $400 million. Do you think that the token of a dead, insolvent exchange that cheated its users by secretly investing their funds in high-risk instruments should be valued at almost $0.5 billion? Of course death. It's strange that something like "slow death" is being considered at all. It should be an instantaneous drop to zero.

The fact that ftt is dying slowly makes me see the slightest chance that someone is planning some huge scam and the price will rebound (someone is buing holding price), but I wouldn't bet even $1 of my money on it and I would advise your brother to sell it.

$400 million is the same as the capitalization of KCS, the kucoin exchange token. A functioning exchange that is quite trusted and battle-tested - was hacked for $300 million (one of the largest hacks in the history of crypto), and still managed to cope. Kucoin was working with the developers of all the stolen tokens, asking them to fork and freeze the hacker's wallet. Kucoin recovered some of the funds and had the rest insured. Not a single customer lost a dollar.

KCS marketcap = FTT marketcap HOW!?
