While reading some of the replies here, I saw some of them are still using the YOBIT exchange which for me is also not a good exchange platform. I have read a lot of topics about this exchange here in the forum before that's why after reading it, I started avoiding this exchange, and until now I only use the Binance exchange. But for me, I guess it's good to use the Binance, Houbi, Bittrex, and Kucoin, I already tried those exchange and they are all safe to use and reputable trading platforms.

Napanood ko itong news na ito mula sa GMA at sabi ng mga research experts sa UP ay bumababa na daw ang mga covid cases at visible daw ito sa ibang mga ospital dito sa NCR. Although sabi naman ng DOH ay masyado pang maaga para mag celebrate tungkol dito. Magandang balita ito na kahit papaano ay nagsisimula na bumaba ang cases pero ayon din sa balita, kahit bumababa ito ay mas matitindi naman ang symptoms ng mga naoospital at  nadadagdagan ang mga mas bata na nagkakavirus.


Ano sa tingin nyo? Ilang buwan na ang lumilipas, magpapatuloy kaya ang pagbaba ng covid cases o pwedeng tumaas ulit ito dahil mas dumarami na ang nagbubukas na mga establishment at mas marami na ang nakakalabas?

Why a lot of people are watching it? The channel is obviously new but it already has thousands of subscribers. Why would they still believe that someone is willing to double their money? This trick is very common already on YouTube, I hope they become more strict about this since they are a big platform will millions of users.

Btw, I already reported it. I hope YouTube would take it down, also their channel because it won't do any good to everyone.

Base sa binigay ni OP na mga Defi projects sila pala yung mga solid projects and chineck ko ito sa coinmarketcap and si Chainlink ang number 1. Late ko nalang narinig itong mga Defi projects kaya wala akong masyadong alam sa kanila pero ngayon ay may kaalaman na ko at nagreresearch na ko ng mga magandang Defi project dahil baka sakaling maka jackpot din ako ng malaking profit. Sa ngayon, dapat maingat din tayo sa mga Defi project na sasalihan/papasukan natin dahil sa ninanais natin kumita ay maubusan pa tayo ng pera dahil nagsulputan na rin mga di legit na Defi project. Wag rin basta-basta magpapadala sa hype ng mga Defi projects matutong mag research bago mag invest.

Even if it's currently getting dump, I kinda doubt that the price will go under $5k at the end of the year but the market has always been unpredictable, it experiences different ups and downs so really never know. Defi has recently getting hype but I don't think that's it's the main reason for the previous increase since there are several main economical issues that probably affected the market.

Maari nating masabi na ito yung right time na iniisip natin or sinasabi nila dahil ngayon maraming cryptocurrencies ang down lalo na ang Bitcoin na biglang bumalik sa presyo ng 10,000$ na mga nakaraang araw ay nasa 11,000$ - 12,000$. Marami satin ay gagamitin ang opportunity ngayon para makapag fill pa ng kanilang mga bags pero ang iba siguro ay aaralin pa rin ang galaw ng market dahil alam natin may chances na bumagsak pa lalo ang mga presyo ng mga cryptocurrencies. Matanong lang @pallang bakit iniiwasan ang Ethereum ngayon?

The hype is fine, Defi is fine, but what's not good is the people who used these hype to take advantage of others, as well as the people who easily fall for hypes without proper research. It may be temporary but there are real ones, it's just that scammers will always be there. Regardless if it's ICO, IEO, or Defi, once something gets attention, scammers will also join the hype to scam people, and that's inevitable.

Like what others have said, it's not about the regulation. You already said that it's so obvious yet scammers still do this kind of tricks because even if it's obvious, there are still people who fall for it just like your friend (but gladly he consulted with you first before doing anything). A lot of people really get attracted to the idea of easy money, especially newbies, and fall for it without knowing if it's real regardless if there's a regulation or not.

I have also read some articles saying that gambling is increasing even though there's a pandemic, or that online gambling is getting attention nowadays. I understand that gambling can be our pastime when we get bored but it's really not a good thing if you prioritize gambling more than your necessities amidst the crisis.

I have also tried to answer the question provided, but most of my answer is no. However, I do sometimes feel the desire to get back what I lose, and I think it's part of gambling and still normal as long as you can control that desire.

I also, think that bitcoin can really bring a lot of opportunities for the people in Africa such as helping them to have financial access since a lot of people still have no access to banks and other services. I have also heard several projects aiming to help Africa and I think to be successful with this revolution, spreading knowledge, and awareness should come first so they can adapt and understand what is this all about.

I have watched the documentary because I'm curious but also skipped some parts and it's more on interviewing about the good things that bitcoin and blockchain can do in Africa.

Yeah, there are basic things that newbies can understand and I have also watched informative videos before and it helps a lot and I also think that it's great for newbies. But at some point, they will think bitcoin as something complicated because the more you dig for information, the deeper it gets. So for me, complicated and deep information is part of it when you're really interested in bitcoin and want to learn more. I mean, you can't just learn the simplest information and stop there.

Fake giveaways are not a new issue, there are plenty of different articles that discuss the signs that you should observe before joining a giveaway. Try to look on the official website and accounts to verify if there's a giveaway announcement. Search if there are similar giveaways since plagiarism is always used by a scammer to make their work believable. Be aware that giveaways are tricky, they can be beneficial and bait at the same time. Don't always assume that it is a better deal, try to be more observable and educate yourself. Using the hashtags can also give you ideas about which giveaways to stay away from.

I think this is not just about the crypto gambling site, I mean even if they don't allow minors to gamble in their site if the person really wants it, he will do anything to enter or to gamble even if he's a minor. We can't blame the gambling site for having e-sports because they don't specifically offer that for minors so they don't have to adjust or what, it's always the guardian who should be responsible when their child gets into gambling at a young age.

Ngayon ang tanging magagawa nila ay magrant sa Facebook dahil wala ng pag-asa na mabawi pa nila ang kanilang pera na pinasok dito. Kaya bago tayo pumasok sa isang investment siguraduhin muna na maayus ito at legit, wag rin basta-basta maniniwala sa mga nakikita sa facebook na maari ka ditong kumita ng malaki dahil hindi lahat ng ganon ay totoo. Wag na wag tayo maakit sa malaking pera dahil baka dahil mas lalo lang tayong mabaon at mawalan ng pera.

Well, pag-usapang pera handa silang manlamang sa kapwa at totoo yan kabayan wala talagang pakeilam ang iba dahil mas iisipin pa nila ang kita/kikitain nila kaysa sa magiging kalagayan ng iba. 

There will always be that kind of misconception about bitcoin especially when it's always about the negative side with bitcoin-related that they see on the media. We all know that media can affect people's perceptions based on what they report, but at least you enlighten and corrected your dad about bitcoin. Since that's what they often hear about bitcoin, they'll start to doubt bitcoin and think of it as something bad. But if there's someone to educate them then they will realize that bitcoin isn't the one ruining things online.

I just checked the Coinmarketmarket right now and it's currently in the bloody market. That's true, not only Defi who have been experiencing a big dump and if we're going to look in the top 100 cryptocurrencies in the Coinmarketcap, we can see some of the coins have been down up to -20%-30%. Probably, some of us will get scared because of this but take note that it's totally normal having this kind of situation in the market. But, how long can we see more dumps in the market?

I agree with @tvplus006 but, make sure before we invest to in any coins, we should already have our prior research to avoid losses.

I think you already did enough just to introduce bitcoin to the people around you. But if they are still not interested, then don't push yourself too much because you will just waste your efforts. For me, it's better to introduce bitcoin to people who are interested and eager to learn. Personally, I have also tried introducing bitcoin to some people around me but of course, not everyone is willing to learn.

Telling only the good side of bitcoin to catch their attention won't really be helpful, I guess? I mean, a lot of people already have misconceptions that bitcoin is like easy money that's why they get interested, but once they realized it's not like that, they will start losing interest.

That's definitely true and it really takes time to earn money here in cryptocurrency. But, I know some people think there's easy money here which is totally a misconception. I also think that airdrop now is not worth it anymore because most of the token you can get in the airdrop is worthless or sometimes is a sh*tcoin. With regards to the bounty campaign, I guess there's still a project where we can gain good profit but the rest will have a chance that you will earn nothing. If you are really interested to earn a good amount of money, learn to do proper trading and investing or try to learn or improve some skills like programming.

May nakikita rin akong mga friend ko sa fb na mina-myday pa nga nila yung amount na nakukuha nila. Mahirap din naman sabihan sila lalo na kung hindi mo naman close. At dati may mga nakita na din ako na yung iba sinasabihan sila na wag maniwala sa trendy pero since kumikita sila, ayaw nila makinig at parang sila pa ang nagiging masama dahil sinasabihan sila. Minsan mahirap talaga makisali kasi kung yun na yung paniniwala nila, mahirap na baguhin yun lalo na kung naexperience na nilang kumita dyan.

Matagal ko na ring nababalitaan itong plano ni Akon although hindi ko lang din masyadong nasusubaybayan yung progress or yung mga latest update tungkol dito. Hindi naman natin makakaila na mayroon talaga syang magandang balak o hangarin gamit ang pag adopt ng crypto para sa Africa, pati na rin yung aim na idevelop yung lugar. Pero syempre hindi rin natin masasabi na yun lang talaga yun at walang ibang personal na interest. Siguro ay hintayin nalang natin yung mga progress and once na matapos na itong plano nya para malaman natin kung ano ang mga mangyayari or yung resulta.
