Hi
I am newbie about saving investments on my private wallets and some market wallets (binance etc.).
I have BTC, Tether and BUSD in my wallets. I dont want to risk it with buying btc and any other coins. Sometimes I withdraw usdt and busd by converting to my own domestic currency.
But holding money with usdt and busd is also has risks and plus usd inflation devalues the money over long term.
So, what do you suggest for me?
I don't like coins like USDT or BUSD. Such coins have 2 problems: 1. They are just as much eroded by inflation like the normal USD 2. They are issued by private companies and this sector is not properly regulated; so you have to trust those companies they'll keep their word. As bitcoiner I was taught to not trust individuals / companies (plus the fact you keep your coins in centralized exchanges' pockets poses another risk). So you are under even higher risk than holding USD and also have your money eroded by (USD's) inflation. Not a good deal imho. What I suggest? Especially since you don't want to invest into Bitcoin I have no suggestion for you. But no matter, I don't like to tell people where to spend their money, they have to decide for themselves. If the money you're talking about is a lot, then usually a mixed bucket of investment vehicles is the key - bitcoin, real estate, gold, stocks, bonds - to allow your money grow (what you lose from one going down you may gain from another one going up). But if you have that much money you better hire somebody handle all this instead of asking from random people over the internet. |

I'm confused, should I invest in bitcoin or other coins?
In my experience the number of altcoins that worth it on long and very long term is almost 0 (compared to bitcoin!). Also, especially as you are newbie and bitcoin is also not easy to master, I think that you better start with bitcoin alone and, in some 2-4 years you can maybe think on altcoins this the gathered experience. With Bitcoin too you have to pay attention where you buy the coins from and how you keep them safely (if you are not technically inclined, then investing into a hardware wallet should be one early step). Keep in mind that you should not invest money you don't afford to lose. |

Your skills in hiding the address are not great. You could have been simply paste your address to make our task a little easier. You've received 0.00662557 with transaction a20d98e9e5d0a83bca00de0995b790dfc15b07ef1a9577f1f6496825fab92d89 The whole amount was sent away with transaction 83cda9ade4d168840d4cd4101debb7027e621d15df2d43c72513b5faa89238e4 The following things are strange: * you don't know what has happened with your money * the send away tx has a quite large fee (106 sat/vByte, 4.60$ in fees!) * the send away tx was confirmed in the same block as the input tx My conclusion is that your wallet is compromised, somebody else has scripts watching your wallet and steals your money. I don't know if your device is also compromised, it can also be the case. Make sure you stop using this wallet (you have no other funds on it, right?) and the new one you generate you do it safely on a clean device. Also you should consider buying a hardware wallet... |

Can you mention the name of those sites where you have those free accounts for over 10 GB ? That might be helpful for me.
As I said, one is Dropbox (after the newbie steps and referrals). Also I said that the other had an early days offer; afaik is no longer for free, although I've found it very reliable over years and I have over 50 GB there: it's called Tresorit. So unless you want to abuse Dropbox to get to at least 7.5-8 GB, you will have to look for new cloud services emerging and offering promotions. Edit: a quick google search gave me this list, maybe it's not a bad idea to try out some of those (just make sure you read the minuses first).
Somewhat on this same topic I was eyeing the option for long term backups done on AWS Glacier systems (backups I hope I will never have to retrieve), but I didn't manage to fully understand what are the complete costs, so I didn't try that for now. |

After the previous news I was so angry ... I am overly surprised by these news. Good news/Bad news type update IMO. Great news that I no longer have to get a heart for now, but bad news or I should say mixed feelings because I had to sit in this hospital for nearly a month and semi wasted my time. I have so many questions. How was I so sick they needed to get me to status 2 and try to get me a heart? How did my heart suddenly decide to work? What does this mean if I get worse? Will I have to go through the work up process again? Will I stay on the list now? Just all kinds of stuff running through my head. It's good that you have such questions. This means that you'll be more careful - with everything - and also hopefully make you ask a second (maybe also third) opinion, preferably from doctors that will give you their opinion instead of just reading what you've got here. Medicine is not as evolved as we like to think and also not all doctors are equally qualified (or think the same). You'll most probably have to research a little more on this... Like the saying, hope for the best, but prepare for the worse. I really hope that the worse has miraculously passed, but let's make sure it's so. |

and also if there are any free cloud storage devices which offer more data storage ? They don't. What are you looking for? "Free" usually requires a credit cards so they can bill you for anything you go over the free limit. Without credit card verification, it would get abused. Actually I do have 2 free accounts, on two platforms, both over 10 GB. One I was lucky to find out in their early days and they were giving huge space. The other is well known, it's Dropbox. If one starts using Dropbox from a referral, he already gets more than the default 2 GB (gets 2.5 GB?). When I've made my Dropbox account, if one has made certain "learning" steps, has got more storage, I don't know if it still happens. But: by getting others make Dropbox account under your referral, you'll get 512 MB (I think) for each new person (I don't know under what limits). Yes, it can be abused if one has too much time (it needs to actually install and run Dropbox for those accounts) . But it doesn't need credit card. So I expect that one, especially if he's knowledgeable and determined, can get over 5 GB at Dropbox without paying and without giving out card info. How safe is Dropbox privacy wise? Well.. I don't have too big expectations. |

It still feels like tricking someone into having an excuse to create a scammer Flag. It was obvious nobody is going to pay $2000 for posting a link.
How about this: "The next user who posts after me, agrees to pay me 0.1 Bitcoin." That sounds like a casual agreement to me. But it shouldn't be allowed!
Yes, it was clearly a trap, hence my reluctance to flag that guy. But nobody has forced him to accept the deal. saxydev was too keen to paint himself as.. something he isn't, hence he has fallen into that trap. Sorry, but doing business for such an account/person is risky. |

Postacii exista de mult timp la noi in tara si, de-a lungul anilor, au impanzit diverse forumuri sau site-uri unde erau permise comentariile, pentru diverse "mismasuri": propaganda politica, sustinerea unui candidat au a altuia, defaimare si asa mai departe. Deci, cu siguranta, dat fiind ca fenomenul exista si exista si oameni cu state vechi in aceasta meserie activitate, se va apela la ei cand va fi cazul. Am sris cu font strikethrough "meserie", insa nu stiu daca este gresit sa consideri asa totusi... In fond, postacii sunt platiti pentru ce scriu pe Internet. Find un forum de nisa, nu stiu daca platitorii s-au gandit (inca) sa "intre" si aici. In rest.. ohoo.. stiu... Eheheeee, ce vremuri erau cand era Dragnea la putere. Uiti si ca daduse lege pentru dublarea alocatiilor (dublare care nu a avut loc nici pana in ziua de astazi) si pentru marirea punctului de pensie cu 40% (care, de asemenea, nu a avut loc)? Deci nu doar ca dadea din gura, omul chiar dadea legi! Imi amintesc ca in perioada aceea eram tare curios cum o sa si plateasca tot ce primite. Pai era simplu: prin devalorizarea accelerata a leului. Daca 1 euro se facea 10 lei, din devalorizarea la 50% putea sa "creasca" toate veniturile si alocatiile cu 40% si tot ii ramaneau 10% pentru alte idei/proiecte. Matematica este simpla! sper ca totusi justitia sa nu fie complet sub bocancul politicului Chiar crezi ca nu este?  Partial, este. Complet, nu stiu, sper ca nu.
Cred ca singura noastra sansa este ca suficienti politicieni din UE (si poate BCE) sa ajunga sa le pese de bitcoin si sa anuleze idiotenia cu CBDC-uri. Cum la noi asa ceva ar intra cu oarecare intarziere, plus costuri, sunt ceva sanse minuscule sa nu se intample. Dar, ... sunt tare mici sansele sa mergem pe aceasta cale... |

Block difficulty is constantly changing so the system approaches on 10 min block times. No, it's not. Read & learn, don't just assume. Read about the difficulty adjustment period. The difficulty is adjusted every 2016 blocks, i.e. about every 2 weeks. That hardly can be seen as "continuously". "Best" can be quantified by basic quantifiable metrics like transaction speed, value spent, number of transactions, who spent transactions, where in the network they are spent from etc. just depends what the network is designed/optimized for
What does transaction speed means in your idea? Because the "speed" is related to the fee and the miners. So that's not a valid measure. Fee, maybe, but not speed. Who spent the transaction? You should not know nor care who spent the transaction. Period. Where are they? Are you kidding me? On a proper decentralized network this should never matter. Number of transactions and so on are highly dependent on mempool, and, each node has a different mempool, so we cannot compare apples with oranges. So.. all this "best" logic has shown (I will agree with franky1 here) that you don't know nor care about what bitcoin is and how it works, you just came with some half-baked ideas that cannot work. |

To summarize:
POW:
Selects proposal based on what node is making it.(selects potential proposal based on node who first solved POW)
Ideal:
Selects proposal based on best proposal for the current conditions
(Selects node based on best potential proposal)
It's not any first, it has to meet the difficulty too. And this is important because it also regulates the speed of blocks being mined. "First" is relatively easy to quantify. "Best" on the other hand... who and how to decide what's best, in an unbiased way, plus to make sure it's not cheated and also making sure the blocks are mined at the correct speed? (The who part is meant to be a trap, since the only correct "who" is the nodes.) |

I was expressing my guilt and I think it's not only you and me but most of us. There are some users who are very good at controlling their nerves, may be some of them feel less guilt.
Point taken. I somehow think that many are not even aware of their "guilt". DT is a mess. Is it a bigger mess than the previous DT system? I don't know, I don't think so, but it's hard to tell. And even harder to make it better.
If I am asked to choice one then I would like to go back to the previous one. But that's not a right option. I think (I told it before too) this feedback system only should be limited to trading goods and stuffs between each others. People will still abuse but at least with the limit, the harassment to each others or to spread fear everywhere will reduce. The real newbies of the forum needs a space to breath and they will have it. The thing is... bounties and signature campaigns are business. And they (especially signature campaigns) are tied to trust ratings. The prestigious campaigns will require prestigious users and reject the shady ones. With signatures getting more and more widespread through the forum, leaving trust rating only to trading is not good enough. And splitting trading related feedback (and maybe the trading related trust circles) from forum-wide generic rating (shady links, scam attempts, ...) and forum-wide trust circles - ie DT - may only make the things more difficult, but not more useful, nor better. |

Il tot pandeam si eu Probabil e o chestiune de ora/orele la care ne uitam. Mie mi-a sarit in ochi. Nu il pandeam in mod special, ca ma asteptasem sa mai astepte cateva zile dupa tombola 499... Si, dupa cum anticipasem amandoi, a meritat asteptarea! Da, frumoase premiile! Ce premiu iti place cel mai mult? Eu unul mi-as dori (1) masinuta (ca de obicei, de altfel  ), (2) card-ul cu insertia "Don't get Yogged" sau (3) portofelul hardware. As prefera aceste premii chiar si inaintea unei monede incarcate cu BTC Mi se par mult mai atractive. Desigur, n-as zice nu oricarui premiu, daca ar fi sa castig, dar cele 3 imi plac cel mai mult. Masinuta e in top si la mine. Urmeaza moneda incarcata (desi nu planuiesc sa rup sigiliul) si cardul "Don't get Yogged". Portofelul hardware nu ma prea atrage, ca am unul, iar KeepKey nu e mai bun decat ce am , asadar, las' sa aiba si altii, sa-si tina banii in siguranta! Sa fie cu noroc! Sa ne fie la toti cu noroc! |

Of course, it was no joke, but a written agreement. If saxydev considered it a joke then, again, it's his fault and, once more, he has to be responsible for the consequences of his actions.
OK, OK, you convinced me. I'll support too the tag. |

I find it interesting that only newbies with one post are praising this exchanger.
It smells of accounts made by exchange's owner for promoting it. This is at very least shady...
I tend to agree with the established members of the forum: this is most probably scam, please be careful!

Din cate stiu nu avem in sectiunea romaneasca vreun tutorial de LN, dar nici acesta nu se doreste a fi un tutorial, mai ales ca eu sunt cel care intreaba.
Treaba sta in felul urmator: am citit din cand in cand pe ici-colo despre LN, mi-am facut niste idei (unele mai bune, altele poate chiar gresite), dar, spre rusinea mea, nu am folosit niciodata.
Si cum toate au un inceput, am zis ca nu ar strica sa avem un schimb de opinii aici, mai ales ca in sctiunea internationala fie o sa se bage vreunul sa ma trimita la topicul cel mare si exagerate de stufos (parerea mea), fie sa inceapa sa zica ca "LN nu e BTC" si.. stiti povestea si personajul.
Intrebarile ar fi cam asa:
Ati folosit careva LN? Din ce portofel ati folosit (local, sau cu cont pe vreo platforma? In caz ca ati folosit local, aveati serverul vostru local sau de pe net?)
In functie de portofelul folosit puteti sa imi dati un exemplu de pasi (foarte pe scurt)?
Eu sunt un pic timorat de LN.
Despre Electrum am mai citit si nu m-a convins: nici nu stiu daca serverul meu de Electrum (un amarat de Electrs local) e bun pentru asta, nu cred ca e..; server extern de Electrum mai degraba evit sa folosesc; si daca as folosi server extern ar insemna sa deschid un canal, iar aici intervin probleme de incredere, de fonduri blocate, de canal deschis disproportionat (o sa fie fonduri doar pe partea mea, deci pot primi bani doar daca am trimis intai) si mai stiu eu ce surprize (trebuie oare portofelul sau serverul lasat pornit 24/7? la un server extern nu am control!) plus tehnologii (habar n-am ce e trampooline sau LND).
Blue Wallet ofera portofel pentru LN, dar spun clar si direct ca e in custodia lor. Momentan pare o solutie de compromis care ma atrage, ca fiind vorba de sume mici, nu ar trebui sa fie probleme. Dar nu am folosit.
Na, cam asta este varza de informatii de la mine din cap. Nu am pretentia ca cineva sa o desluseasca. Dar daca ati folosit LN, m-as bucura de cateva cuvinte/directii sa invat si eu asta...

As an advice, you may want to transform the first 10 entries also into double digits, else some may think they get some unfair advantage.
