Biden comfortably beat Trump in 2020 (50.8% vs. 47.4%), just as Trump comfortably beat Kamala in 2024 (50.7% vs. 47.7%). I dont see any major difference there. Its true that the total turnout in 2020 was higher than now, but that was a record year, likely due to COVID and the large number of early votes. However, the fact remains that Trump's turnout is higher in this election than in the last (and votes are still being counted).

I still dont understand what you are trying to say.  At first, you said "most sites" accept crypto.  But then you backtracked a bit and said "many payment portals" take it.  Most and many are two different terms, you know? (What do you think of as a payment portal, anyway?)

Look, its definitely true that using cryptocurrencies has gotten more popular over the past few years.  And yeah some big online shops and crypto-specific businesses do let you pay with it.  but I wouldnt say most regular retailers are on board yet. Just wanted to clarify the facts. So if you have some data or research to support your claims, that would be great, because I couldnt find any. All I found on some articles and data from Crypto.com and research from CoinLedger which claims that they found there are now 76 retail and ecommerce companies that accept crypto. 76! Thats like a drop in the ocean considering how many online retailers are actually out there.

Are you sure you double-checked all the options and settings in your mobile wallet?  If I remember correctly, Electrum mobile used to have more granular control over transaction fees, even entering the fee rate manually.  Im not sure if this is still the case in newer versions, as its been a while since I last used it.

I dont think it will be worth your effort.  Most of those free tokens dont end up being valuable at all - and youll waste a bunch of time digging through random crypto projects trying to find ones that might actually go somewhere.  If you are tight on funds, doing little side gigs is probably a safer bet to earn some money instead of hoping to strike it rich with a sketchy airdrop.  I know its tempting to try and get free money but those airdrops rarely pan out.
Just my two sats!

Are you sure its over?  Im just not convinced this is the end. Markets dont always react right away in full force to stuff like this, particularly when you are talking about something as unpredictable as Bitcoin.  A Trump win could still lead to shifts in fiscal policies or regulatory approaches that end up impacting Bitcoins trajectory significantly in the coming months.



Yes, and the most interesting thing will be to see if it will really fire Gensler on the very first day after taking the office. 

A lot of folks look into things like Bitcoin or traditional assets like the S&P 500 hoping it will help their money situation, but you are sounding kinda over-the-top negative about it all.  I get that markets go up and down - thats just how it is and  the day-to-day changes can be big sometimes, sure, but that doesnt mean there is no chance things will grow over time.  Im not saying Bitcoin investments are perfect or well all make a killing or whatever.  But it aint as doom and gloom as you make it sound either.  Not everyone is gonna lose it if they put some money into crypto or stocks or what have you.

I dont know where you got that from, but that cant be true.  Most sites still rely on traditional payment methods like credit cards and PayPal. While some e-commerce platforms and specific crypto-focused businesses accept cryptocurrencies, its definitely not the case for the most sites.

This is impossible to answer without more specific information about the incidents. It is possible that it is FUD or fake.


Assuming there is no hack or theft involved, the coins will not go anywhere. They will still be on the blockchain with their respective addresses. If you restore the wallet with the same seed, there is no reason not to get all the coins back.  To ensure you can recover your wallet addresses, even on third-party apps, its a good idea to write down both your seed phrase and derivation paths for all coins you use.


Many of the most popular HW wallets also support third-party apps, so you dont have to use their app if you dont want to.

I believe discussing specific vote tallies right now is premature given that ballots are still coming in from several states.  My expectation is that overall turnout likely meets or exceeds 2020 levels.  So it seems improbable Trump would end up netting fewer actual votes compared to his prior result once counting wraps up. 

Lets wait until all votes are counted and then compare with a full picture.

Have you read any of the previous replies in this thread? Bitcoin mining with graphic cards is pretty much a no-go at this point, so you should have to look into altcoins that can still be profitably mined.  But I wouldnt bother wasting time on that if I were you.  Its unlikely to pan out and you risk frying your laptop in the process and  i speak from experience on that last bit - lost a good machine back in the day by pushing the GPU too hard.

So yeah, Id say avoid the crypto mining route unless you really know what you are getting into and have the proper hardware.  Too many risks for too little potential payoff for most folks now.  My opinion anyway.

I like the Food business idea, which inspired me to think of this concept for a holiday-focused food delivery service.  People get all nostalgic around the holidays and crave those classic dishes that remind them of childhood, like grandma's famous pumpkin pie or something like that.  Not everyone has the time or talent to whip up those old family recipes themselves though.  Thats why I think a business catering specifically to that need could do well and  youd have to find ways to make the dishes taste homemade even when produced on a larger scale.  And marketing it evoke those sentimental vibes.  But I believe there is an angle there with the right plan.

Pretty much every casino online and offline, gives some kind of perk or reward to bring in new customers and keep the ones they have. Some typical examples include welcome bonuses and loyalty or VIP programs... However, these rewards can vary significantly, because each casino aims to create a unique experience for its clientele.  Do you have anything particular (in mind) that you would like to discuss?

I think theres something truly unique about watching with fellow fans, especially during major matches. I love the energy and excitement of a crowd, the collective cheers and groans. Its that whole brotherhood thing that makes football so much more enjoyable. Watching a big game on your own just doesnt compare.  For me, it really depends on the game. If its just a regular match, Im perfectly fine watching at home, maybe with a couple of friends. But for the big games? Definitely, I would much prefer being in a lively place, like a sports bar or viewing center, where you can really soak in that collective excitement.

your scenario is a total fantasy, and there is no point in discussing it. Spoiling ballots en masse wouldnt force politicians to rethink candidates or rewrite the Constitution. For one thing, NOTC is not even a valid ballot choice in federal elections, so a high number of spoiled ballots would not be grounds for a do-over. The U.S. does not change its election results just because a lot of people are unhappy with their choices; low approval ratings and dissatisfied voters are nothing new.

How do you still feel comfortable using Atomic wallet? Wasnt there some incident about hacked wallets after a software update or something?

Honestly, Id be freaking out if I saw a huge amount of crypto in my wallet that I did not put there. 

Well, unfortunately, the situation is a bit more complex than that. Most casinos have Terms of Use defined in such a way that they can restrict any player for a whole range of reasons. In some cases, casinos may restrict accounts as a risk management measure, especially if a player is deemed to be a high-roller customer. As I have said before, the ethics of such a measure is questionable at best, but legally, they always cover their asses.


I agree with that.

To be honest, personal feedback doesnt necessarily have to be factually correct. The community standard is that both positive and negative feedback should be supported by evidence or facts. However, neutral feedback is often just a personal opinion and may not always be correct or true.


I doubt it, but if you believe that is the case, you should discuss it with him.  He is the only one who can change it. The community cant help you with that.

Thanks for the warning, and it is good that all the accounts are already tagged negative. But how do we know that anonymous22 is an alt account of Heisenberg63? I couldnt find that reference.

Bitcoin markets have had a bit of a love-hate relationship with November. Over the past six years, four Novembers have ended in the red.  Hopefully, this year will be in green again, like last year.
