521  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will Doge coin everly hit $1? on: November 09, 2023, 09:35:17 PM
If Elon wants, then yes, Doge coin would reach $1; in crypto, everything is possible. But we can't say when it will happen or if it will happen at all. We just can't ignore the possibility. Because during the last bull run it was almost near $1, and currently it's very low compared with the last bull price. But unfortunately, it seems Elong isn't making much noise about Doge lately. Maybe he is busy with something else. However, Doge Coin has a great community already, so they need a spark to go on fire.
522  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Suggest me a secure and open-source hardware wallet. on: November 09, 2023, 09:10:56 PM
Dude I already told you that everything in Trezor3 is OPEN SOURCE including secure element, so I don't know what more do you want? Some certificate approval?
btw you are using devices with closed source chips all the time in your credit cards, smartphones, computers, etc.
I am not sure why you are comparing a centralised chip with a decentralised and non-custodial secure chip. Both are different; credit card chips won't be open source because they are centralized. When you get a credit card, you already trust them. But for a hardware wallet, this isn't a fact. Do you know private keys would be revealed from the Secure Element Chip through a firmware update? If you don't know, then search for it. The manufacturer could reveal the stored data to Secure Chip through a firmware update if they want it. This is the reason I am leaving the Ledger wallet. But the good thing is that Trezo firmware is open source, and if they implement something like revealing private keys through firmware updates, then the community could detect it.

So most likely, I am going to order Trezor Safe 3, which is universal.
523  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's your Favorite Altcoin and Why? on: November 08, 2023, 10:05:41 PM
As if my favourite altcoin is still Ethereum. It has greater potential than other altcoins. Before the SEC allegations, I was a fan of Binance Coin, which is actually called BNB. Due to the massive dump, a lot of investors lost their funds in BNB, and still, it has been struggling to grow compared with other altcoins. Ethereum has a massive use case that is helping to grow it, and the biggest community is always backing it. Network fees don't matter for me, though they are still higher than those of other altcoins.
524  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: When is the Bear and Bull Markets for Altcoins? on: November 08, 2023, 09:57:24 PM
Though you haven't heard about the bull and bear markets for altcoins, you must hear about alt season. Bull and bear totally depend on Bitcoin; hence, it is called the bull market and the bear market. Most of the altcoins follow the Bitcoin trends, though the growth ratio would differ from Bitcoin. When Bitcoin maintains stability during a bull run, we discover the alt season. That means it will be really bullish for altcoins. But altcoin would never make bull alone without Bitcoin.
525  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you know about the first public servant paid in bitcoin ? on: November 08, 2023, 09:48:35 PM
Selling bitcoin is actually a normal procedure. Those who we have been earning right now in Bitcoin are still selling even though we know the potentiality of Bitcoin. Aren't we doing this? Otherwise, who has been selling Bitcoin on the market? If no one sells it, then no one can buy it, so the market will be stuck. Even if I get the salary during that time, I won't hold it till now; it's quite impossible unless I forget about my bitcoin. So Tony Vaughn could even become a millionaire if he holds, but who knows? I am pretty sure he also sold his holdings before seeing a massive pump.
526  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Suggest me a secure and open-source hardware wallet. on: November 08, 2023, 07:36:39 PM
Based on what you wrote I think that Trezor 3 Safe is currently best available hardware wallet for you.
Thanks for your valuable input. Trezor was my first choice since I intend to move to another wallet rather than the Ledger hardware wallet. But my concern is about secure chips. Since the secure chip stores private keys, I am not sure if the manufacturer could reveal the private keys from the secure chip. I have to find more information about Trezor Secure Chip before jumping into it. I know all hardware devices wouldn't suit everyone since everyone's needs are different. I hope I can have a better solution.
527  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Fuck you ledger on: November 07, 2023, 09:43:47 PM
I had been using Ledger for a few years. But due to their FUCKING system, I am going to move to another hardware wallet. Right now, I am searching and comparing the best wallets. I am afraid lately to store a larger amount in the ledger. Even though the community wants open-source software, they still don't care. Rather, they launched a seed recovery service, which is the worst thing in crypto.
528  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and misinformation on: November 07, 2023, 09:37:19 PM
I am not sure how you have been misinformed about Bitcoin. So far, I know that due to a lack of knowledge, a few people spread misinformation about Bitcoin; they just present it as an investment opportunity. Very few individuals know about Bitcoin technologies and uses. That's the most common misinformation spreading around us. If we know how Bitcoin works, then anyone can't say Bitcoin is a scam. So it's most important to learn and spread the right information.
529  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Suggest me a secure and open-source hardware wallet. on: November 07, 2023, 08:33:06 PM
Currently, I have been using Ledger X. We know Ledger is a trusted hardware wallet manufacturer. But lately I don't have enough faith in Ledger when it's a matter of storing a large amount. I am not saying Ledger isn't trusted due to my faith. Its just my personal feel about Ledger due to its closed source. More importantly, their backup service is one of the worst things in crypto, though it's not mandatory. Backup our seed with a third party for a hardware wallet won't make it secure anymore.

So here is my concern: I want to move to a new secure, smart, and open-source hardware wallet. And I want to know about the secure chip used by Ledger. Lately, even Trezor started using Secure Chip. So with a secure chip, can we trust that the wallet is safe and doesn't have a chance of being drained by the manufacturer?

I need a multi-currency hardware wallet that is secure, smart, and open-source, price really doesn't matter. One of my choices is Keystone due to their wallet design, especially the fingerprint system. But it seems they used three secure chips, and I am not much aware of whether the manufacturer can drain wallets somehow through the secure chips.

Please suggest details and why you think I should buy this. Please don't send the list to compare wallet, just suggest best one.
530  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Solves This - Money and Banking on: November 06, 2023, 08:35:39 PM
The most common reasons to love Bitcoin are decentralisation and financial freedom. We can call ourselves our own bank when we are holding Bitcoin in our non-custodial wallet. Because we can spend our assets wherever we want, no one will ask any questions about our spending. When we want to withdraw a large amount or receive large amounts from our bank, they ask many questions, even though it's our own money. I know banks have a few obligations from the government, but that's always what I hate. Here is what Bitcoin stands for: we can receive any amount worldwide without any third party and without question. For that, we must be financially established. Otherwise, high volatility will hurt Bitcoin holders.
531  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Tricky situation for Altcoin investment on: November 06, 2023, 07:49:53 PM
What I have seen so far is that newbies are afraid to accumulate when the price of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies is down. For example, a few months ago, Bitcoin was around $15K, and many of us were afraid to accumulate. But now many people are asking if it is the right time to invest or not. So I think this is the first common mistake newbies have been making. Secondly, they can't choose the right coin at the right time. It's true that altcoin gives us a couple of X during a bull run, but it's not applicable to every coin. It could dump a couple of X as well. In this case, Bitcoin is more secure; it would not suddenly drop 2x. So I can say that a Bitcoin investment is less risky, though with lower profits. We shouldn't divert our minds with the excuse that Bitcoin is already high and move to altcoins. Just remember the ATH of Bitcoin.
532  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / What's your thoughts about potential newly borned coins during the bear market? on: November 06, 2023, 07:39:14 PM
The topic title already expresses the theme of the post, but I will try to write in detail. Technically, we are in a bull market, though we don't know if it is real or fake. But we noticed a few newly born altcoins during the last bear season that have potential growth. A few altcoins also gained enough popularity from the crypto community. For example, we can say ARB and PEPE. Both coins haven't met with the bull market previously since they were newly minted. What's your thoughts about these types of coins that were borne during the last bear market? I feel these types of coins would give us a good return during a real bull run. Because all of them have never met a bull and are ready to grow. But we have to make sure of its popularity and potential. Those coins are listed on the biggest exchanges; we may consider them to accumulate. Otherwise, it's quite risky to make money.

Let us know if you have a few names for those borne during bear but potential to grow.

For me, it is advisable to invest but not take financial advice.
1. ARB
2. PEPE
533  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoins that are good for long hodling in this season. on: November 06, 2023, 07:27:08 PM
Investing in Binance Coin (BNB) is pretty high-risk right now. Because the SEC filed a case against BNB. We don't know what the upcoming result is; hence, I don't feel it's good to invest right now. But Ethereum has the potential to grow. There is still no issue regarding Ethereum lately, so it's less risky for long-term holding. I am one of the ETH holders, and I have been out of the BNB for some time. I will monitor the market before taking entry on BNB. Likely a small amount I can risk on BNB. I will prefer those coins that were born during the bear but have potential and would be great for investment. In this case, ARB, one of the popular coins, has potential. It might give a good return during the bull run. Because it was newly born during the bear market and hasn't met with any bull markets yet.
534  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: I’ve bought 100 BTC in 2011. Need help to find them for rewards. on: November 05, 2023, 09:48:44 PM
Rewards don't matter, but I wish you to recover your assets. First, try to convince your bank about your statement, where you may find the data where you bought the bitcoin. And we aren't sure if the exchange where you bought your bitcoin still exists. Search Google to see which exchanges were active during your purchase year and try to login. Use the forget password everywhere, and you may get mail. Without a proper clue, it's impossible to recover your bitcoin.
535  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Hi Im very newbie on: November 05, 2023, 09:40:36 PM
I am afraid you joined this forum to earn money, and your first thread indicated this. You are wondering about earning from the future trading so easily and dreaming of being rich over the night. I just don't believe any trading signal group and don't want to pay a penny for their subscription. It's just eyewashing and earning nothing. Don't forget that Telegram is a safe haven for scammers. They will scam you, and you will get nothing. Since you joined the forum, I will advise you to spend more time here for learning purposes. So you can learn about trading as well. Without acquiring the proper knowledge, you may lose your whole portfolio. So just be very careful.
536  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Anyone been using Pyypl? It seems a potential virtual card can use crypto as wel on: November 05, 2023, 09:22:27 PM
Meanwhile, has any of you folks who registered for Pyypl received this notification from the app?

I haven't used the service for some weeks and have no money in there at the moment but last time i used it, everything was smooth.
Nothing to worry about, actually. For a few days, they have been notifying users about their system upgrade. So the card is not working properly, but other services are working fine. I made international transactions two days ago, and it went smoothly, though there were notices about system upgrades. Their support system is very poor right now. It shouldn't take too long to upgrade the system. A lot of users use this card for various subscriptions, and they might face problems due to their upgrades. They should be more professional and faster. Otherwise, they would lose popularity.
537  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Revolut bitcoin deposit on: November 05, 2023, 09:12:11 PM
So here's a funny update about this whole situation:

The individual I sent the funds never followed the "verification process" but received a notification on the 3rd of November (a month from the deposit) that his funds were available, and he managed to sell them and transfer them to fiat.

Nice to hear it got resolved. So the problem was a verification issue. When I was reading the replies, I assumed something like this. Because it is a custodial service and may require a verification process. However, I am not familiar with Revolution, though it sounds familiar to me. I've never used it or don't know what its purpose is. It's funny, took one month to credit deposit amounts.
538  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Using TV( GOTV, DSTV) monthly subscription money to invest in bitcoin on: November 05, 2023, 09:02:35 PM
For almost 5 years, I haven't had any TV connection. Using smart TV through the Internet is better; I don't need to pay any extra TV subscription bills. Because almost everything is available on the Internet and most of our local channels have online broadcasts, For kids, there are a lot of YouTube cartoons, which is enough for them. I don't have much time to watch TV or use my mobile to watch movies, etc. during free time. So I think your decision to invest in Bitcoin instead of a TV subscription is more appropriate.
539  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: fudster guy saying bitcoin is not viable because there are too few available on: November 05, 2023, 08:51:53 PM
I am really not getting what exactly the OP wants to express. What's the real concern here? Is it about total supply, or are you worried that total market capital would surpass total USD? Anyway, don't mix the Bitcoin unit with the USD; nothing is conflicting here. You can always buy a unit of bitcoin. It doesn't matter what the price is or what the supply is. It's open to everyone. I will advise you to be more specific when you are writing a post. So it will help you get the perfect answers.
540  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does a rotation of a DCA HODLing account wallet, guarantee safety from hackers? on: November 05, 2023, 08:40:57 PM
I am not sure what rotation means. Whales are not careless like us. They know very well how they should secure their funds. It's important for every crypto user to secure funds in a safe wallet. It doesn't matter if the crypto is accumulated by the dollar-cost averaging (DCA) strategy or any other way. It doesn't make any difference when the question is: secure your funds. Just accumulate and move the funds into a cold wallet. This isn't a hard task nowadays, even for small investors like me. A hardware wallet doesn't cost much compared to how it secures your funds.
