If you want to invest, then study the tokenomics of the project. According to tokenomics, I see that this coin was distributed through mining very quickly. If this coin was mined and bought by manipulators and most of the coins are with them, then they can send the price to the moon, and then sell their coins to hamsters.The price of the coin is rising against the market. Since the beginning of the year X17, and this is not the limit of growth in the price of such coins.
762  Bitcoin / Legal / BIS has said an important opinion about Stablecoins on: November 17, 2023, 11:50:27 AM
https://www.bis.org/publ/bppdf/bispap141.htm
"Stablecoins are a subcategory of cryptoassets that aim (or claim) to maintain a stable value relative to a specified peg. This paper provides an overview of the evolution of the stablecoin market over the past decade and examines whether stablecoins have stayed true to their name in terms of being "stable". We study 68 stablecoins and show that not one of them has been able to maintain parity with its peg at all times. This is irrespective of their size or type of backing. Moreover, we argue that there is currently no guarantee that stablecoin issuers could redeem users' stablecoins in full and on demand. For these reasons, we conclude that the stablecoins in circulation today do not meet the key criteria for being a safe store of value and a trustworthy means of payment in the real economy. This paper also highlights some significant data gaps. Without further data on the uses and users of stablecoins, it is difficult to ascertain the risks of stablecoins to the smooth functioning of payment systems and financial stability more broadly."

763  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning on: November 17, 2023, 11:39:28 AM
Let's make this thread alive again, as Bitcoin has pumped to $36,000 once again and getting closer to the 3/4 of the ATH on 2021. ETH is also doing well.
As of typing this, $1900 is its current price and just a few more steps to get back to $2k and I think from there then it's going to be easy to reach the next price points of thousands like $3k on wards as we're about to enter into the bull run.

I am not a fan of Ethereum,  I don't even have the wallet in my device though I installed it in my device before but I uninstalled it back. And in the cryptocurrency ecosystem every active member will know that Ethereum is the second to bitcoin presently but we don't know if there will be a coin that will come and pass it from behind. Because cryptocurrency ecosystem is now a business platform where coins are competing seriously. All are always behind bitcoin. Bitcoin price presently is $37k and is still moving upward.

But the happiest part of it is that non can come close to the king of crypto bitcoin. For Ethereum to hit $1900, that shows it is doing well in the ecosystem. And this is the best time to invest. Why bitcoin is ahead of all the coins is because it creates avenue for people to have bitcoin without stress.
My opinion on Ethereum is that this coin will be the first because its ecosystem is used by large global financial companies. I don’t see any problems for Ethereum in the near future, but Bitcoin has a high energy consumption and its ecosystem is not developing as actively as the Ethereum ecosystem.

"(Bloomberg) -- The head of Dubai’s crypto regulator is poised to depart after less than a year on the job, just as authorities prepare to impose sweeping fines on non-compliant digital-asset firms operating in the emirate.

Henson Orser, who’s run the Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority since January, will be replaced by Matthew White, a partner at PwC who has worked with VARA as a consultant, the regulator said in a statement to Bloomberg News on Thursday. A leadership transition will take place “over the coming months,” VARA said. "

"SEC Announces Enforcement Results for Fiscal Year 2023
Commission filed 784 enforcement actions, obtained orders for nearly $5 billion in financial remedies, and distributed nearly $1 billion to harmed investors

Washington D.C., Nov. 14, 2023 —
The Securities and Exchange Commission today announced that it filed 784 total enforcement actions in fiscal year 2023, a 3 percent increase over fiscal year 2022, including 501 original, or “stand-alone,” enforcement actions, an 8 percent increase over the prior fiscal year. The SEC also filed 162 "follow-on" administrative proceedings seeking to bar or suspend individuals from certain functions in the securities markets based on criminal convictions, civil injunctions, or other orders and 121 actions against issuers who were allegedly delinquent in making required filings with the SEC."

It turns out to be profitable to keep Whistleblowers!
769  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: 47 countries pledge to authorize Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework by 2027 on: November 16, 2023, 11:38:57 AM
The fact that countries collaborate to collect taxes seems legitimate to me, but what I see as bad about this is that it is one more step towards a total control of the population and a total absence of privacy. We keep seeing news in this section that are all aimed at the same thing, a mass surveillance. And I guess there will be no massive protests because this is being done little by little, like the frog that is slowly boiling.

actually last I counted there are over 186 countries.

and if 47 say yes

5 + 54(every African country) = 59 say no


there are more than 80 not accounted for.


47 yes
59 no
80 ?
186 I think there are 195 not 186. still 80 - 89 not accounted for means a lot.
If countries with the largest markets and capitals accept this agreement, then other countries will follow these demands if they want to attract capital. China will be forced to accept certain points of this agreement because this country has many trade relations. The United Arab Emirates has also done a lot over the past 10 years for financial control.

yeah that's what they do they want to restrict americans freedoms to transact globally. keep them under their thumb. tell them what they can't do. ... how its always been with government. plus they want a cut of anything you DO do.
Is there really no way for the community to argue against this kind of law? I suspect almost every crypto user would be uncomfortable with such a law. I'm referring to something like a judicial review or something similar, not just a protest or demonstration on the street. I guess that will be easier if crypto becomes mainstream and most people use it, but if it stays niche then the government can easily crush any opposition. CMIIW.
This is a waste of time because cryptocurrencies will be tightly controlled in the US and Europe. Since in the USA each state still has local legislation, you can look for refuge in one of the states with a loyal attitude towards cryptocurrencies. And then there is Canada, which has more lenient legislation. But I advise you to look at which offshore companies Sam Bankman Fried registered his companies in and trade there with minimal taxes.
771  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: The SEC Struggles to Recruit Crypto Experts, Report Says on: November 16, 2023, 11:18:45 AM
I am just wondering why they want these proposed workers to obey the mandate to divest while the US government is holding large sums of cryptocurrencies. Does it mean that the current staff of the SEC are mandated not to own crypto or is this law limited to only these new recruits? Maybe these proposed applicants have special tasks to accomplish that require them not to hold cryptos.   
Typically, laws apply to all employees of an organization. Even if, perhaps, the possession of cryptocurrencies was not prohibited before, then after such a rule is introduced, all employees are required to comply with it. I don't know what about the cleaners or the security guards. But I'm more interested in what can be said about the conflict of interest between close relatives.
The SEC might end up losing more employees if the new law is forced on old employees. This is because some of them might resign since they will not want to dispose of their cryptocurrencies. This directive will be difficult to implement considering the pseudonymous of cryptocurrencies. I am also interested in how the SEC intends to manage or control how close family members of such employees will deal with crypto.
I can explain this to you using the example of a large Russian company such as Sberbank. If you work with Sberbank, this does not mean that you will have information for trading shares of this company on the stock exchange. You will perform a certain part of the work and sign a non-disclosure agreement. And your knowledge will not help you speculate in the market. Therefore, in order to gain access to significant information, you will have to work for a very long time and apply for a high position in the company. But once you achieve this, you won't have to break the law for profit. You will have enough money anyway.

И давно не использую инструменты трейдера кроме уровней.
1 уровень близок к 80, куда можно гнать цену, потому что пассажиры засажены.
2 уровень 140, куда тоже можно гнать, если большая часть пассажиров из диапазона 80-140 вышла.
Другие варианты не расматриваю пока. по 12 не купил, но зато взял по 22.

If you do not link your coins to such services, then you have a greater chance of remaining undetected.


but if you don't disclose on your tax returns that you sold some bitcoin, they would consider that tax evasion. and there's probably a penalty for that. if they found out...

plus if you ever get busted for doing that then they'll keep a tight watch on you forever. you'll be flagged in their system forever.  Shocked
But you only have 2 options. Or do you obey these laws? Are you looking for ways to disobey these laws with minimal risks to yourself. If in your country a citizen who does not declare cryptocurrency is a potential terrorist, then maybe you should study the laws of South American countries and think about emigrating.

After such a letter, you have lost all chances if the Wise agreement prohibits cryptocurrency transactions.
I see that you are thinking like a 10 year old child.
If your money is not blocked, then spend it and try to find out the reason for the blocking from technical support, although they won’t tell you anything. Maybe it’s completely different, and you’ve already told unnecessary information about yourself.

778  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Prosecution to use Caroline Ellison notes as evidence against SBF on: November 15, 2023, 03:05:27 PM

SBF used money from clients of the FTX exchange to save its partner business and failed very badly.
 
Personally I just feel he's not good at business administration because with the way he looted those funds and channeled them into Alameda, you'd think that he'd have something to fall back on when things go south, but it turned out that not even the donations he made to the US political campaigns or even the money in which he used in investing in real estate can be accounted for. Seriously, he deserves the time he'd be given to spend in jail cause when you think of how many customers funds; most of them hard earned that just went down the drain, you would even wish the judge sped up the process.
A smart investor will never store, trade, or invest money on one exchange.
The risks of centralized exchanges have long been known to everyone.
And his investments in real estate are not that big when compared to the total losses of investors. Investors may receive part of the money after the sale of real estate.
I think the worst thing is to be awaiting punishment.

"Just under 50 national governments have issued a joint pledge to “swiftly transpose” the Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF), a new international standard on automatic exchange of information between tax authorities, into their domestic law systems. The statement was published on Nov. 10.

The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) published the CARF in 2022. Developed from an April 2021 mandate from the G20, the CARF framework requires reporting on the type of cryptocurrency and digital asset transaction — whether through an intermediary or a service provider."

China and Hong Kong, the United Arab Emirates, Russia, and Turkey and most African countries are not on this list.
