This is the problem most of the time if the person who invested in bitcoin didn't even make any research before jumping into it. They will feel so worried about their money when starts going down and will keep asking those people they know that have good knowledge about it. This is the reason why I dont let someone know that i am investing in bitcoin. I will introduce them first to cryptocurrency before they invest or trade cryptocurrency because that is really risky.

This is too early for you to talk about signature because you are still a beginner, dont mind wearing a signature mate because there are some other important things you may gain in this forum. If you want to wear a signature then, you can go to services there are a lot of signatures that you can wear and promote them by posting quality posts.

You can also use another email for this forum, that is also what I am doing, I have different emails for different platforms and social media accounts. There is no sense in hiding your email address here because it is only an email, but then if you dont want to you can do what the OP's saying.
If you are using different email, try to make different passwords for each email as well, do not use one password for all the emails that you are using that is risky.

It's sad to say that the Parents that should be the role model and the one who knows best for their children is the one who makes him at his worst, the addiction to gambling really makes your life miserable, if you are weak and you know to yourself that you are not mentally stable do not try to gamble, you dont know what you can do if you already addicted to it. They should not only fined, they should also get into rehabilitazion, that should be the best consequence for their action but hopefully they've learned their lessons,

There is no one to blame about your gambling losses but only yourself because you are the one who decide to gamble and you are the one who risk your money so why need to blame anyone if only consists yourself.

We are here again in the battle of the goat shooter and the Goat (Still debatable), this really makes me butterflies on my stomach once again because Lebron James and Stephen Curry will face in the playoffs once again. I am GSW fan but the new roster of lakers is such a different team compared to their team before the trade deadline, so I think this would give us a great fight, but still I believe to GSW to take down the lakers maybe at 6, especially if Kevon Looney will continue the way he play just like how he play against the Sacramento Kings, he became the hero of GSW this playoff next to Stephen Curry, and if GSW will win this season, Stephen Curry can go up to top 5 all time for sure.

In the meantime, I am really shocked on the 2-0 of Denver against the Suns, I hope KD will stand out next game, they really need them, only Booker is consistent in their team, this is my second team so I hope they may comeback from 2-0.

This is such a great story, there are so many people who may relate on this story, it always happen to anybody who gamble. Whenever we gamble and we keep on winning maybe around 3 streak, then we win again, we will think that it is our lucky day so we wont stop and will still continue playing the game, but then if we get our first lost that time we wont still stop because you are thinking that you still have the money so we will still play until we lost all our money.

Always be mindful whenever we gamble, always remember to be contented, it will really help you in gambling world.
You have to know your limits and when you are going to stop, do not let the gamble controls you but you should be the one who need to control it.

All you need to do is to keep your private key or seed phrase in a safest ways you can, there are a lot of things you can do to protect it, there are some people who write down their seed phrase in a piece of paper and keep them in a secret place and there are also some people who place it underneatch their house.

Just remember not to store it in any social media platform you have or save it in your computer, that would be the riskiest thing you might do to your wallet, we are always vulnerable from attack when we are using any computer or technology so always keep away your secrets on it.
28  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How can we help to Bitcoin education? on: May 01, 2023, 03:46:39 PM
It is a great idea to spread the knowledge of cryptocurrency to everyone, there are a lot of things that we can do to make it happen.

We can use our social media accounts to promote cryptocurrency, this will be the easiest and fastest ways to help people encounter cryptocurrency, we can add these things to the promotion.
1. Introduce the history of cryptocurrency.
2. Advantages and Disadvantages of using it.
3. Websites and popular persons to help them learn more about crypto.

We can also start by telling our friends and family.
29  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Advise to a friend on: May 01, 2023, 02:14:07 PM
Always remember that do not ever convince anybody to invest in Bitcoin or any cryptocurrency, we all dont know how long it will work, and if the person you convinced cannot wait anymore while his investment is not in good condition he or she might blame you.

You dont need to do that, especially for those persons who dont have any knowledge about cryptocurrency.

Instead of convincing him to invest in Bitcoin, why dont you just convince him to learn about cryptocurrency first, that is the best option for you to advise your friend, he might understand it sooner.

This is an interesting question, we all have here different goals why we are here in this forum, there are who joined to gain knowledge and also there are who wants to earn some money here.

A lot of spam messages and low quality posts will be gone in this forum because most of the users are just creating posts and replying to messages just to reach the weekly quota and get paid, but then it will also lessen the number of topics we have here, there would be less communication and less active members.

It can be affect in good and bad terms for sure, but I dont think that it will happen in the future.

Hello 👋  

I can see that some people have a high rank and some are lower, is it advisable to take advice from high-rank members more seriously than jr members and full members?
Hello mate, welcome to the forum, the fact that there are higher rank levels to you means that they have more knowledge than you so there is no problem if a junior member will give you advice, for sure they already gain some knowledge here because they already rank up.

I also want to tell you not to focus on rank, focus first on gaining knowledge before minding to ranking up because that is the most important thing that you can have here in this forum. Ranking up is easy if you already gain a lot of knowledge in crypto, so focus on reading and be active here.
32  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Survey] Do you still play or stop the game? on: October 25, 2022, 03:39:07 AM
This is what makes gambling addictive, whenever you win and earn money from it, it attracts you to play more and win another game, I've been in this situation before so many times, there are times that whenever I keep on winning, it makes me more active and it gives me more energy to play even though it is already time to sleep, there is also some time that I already forgot to sleep because it is already morning.

There are also some instances that when you are already losing, it also makes you feel to play more and turn back the money that has been lost from you, so I suggest if you wanna gamble you should have disciplined and always know your limitations. be contented with your wins
33  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Cryptocurrency be a Global Currency in the Future? on: October 21, 2021, 06:25:13 PM
I dont think that bitcoin can be the global currency in the future, I believe that bitcoin will only be the best asset among other assets, it can replace gold as most of the big investors now are in cryptocurrency, this is because we have seen a great potential of bitcoin, what more if we will have the fully mass adaption. Cryptocurrency is just an alternative for fiat currency but not to the point that it will replace fiat.
34  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you pay with crypto??? on: October 21, 2021, 03:56:44 PM
In our country there is no establishment that accepts bitcoin as payment, we are in third world countries, so we are not that so open about technology innovation, and most of the time is focused in the traditional way, but if we will have the chance to pay using cryptocurrency, I will use XRP as this is the best coin to use to lessen the transaction fees.
I never pay using crypto I exchange coins for fiat then I use fiat for payments because in my country I can't transact bitcoin or other altcoins, I hope one day I can make transactions using bitcoin.
If your country seems impossible to accept bitcoin then you may visit other countries, your favorite countries and try it there, we have the same scenarios and I also have plan to visit and relax in other country, hoping that there would be some establishment that will accept cryptocurrency.
35  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My first time using a Bitcoin ATM on: October 21, 2021, 02:57:10 PM
I haven't tried yet using bitcoin ATM, but it seems so easy and comfortable to use, it now makes me really excited to use it someday but seems like impossible in my own country, maybe in other countries if ever I visit it in the future, I am just thinking about the number verification, I really do think that there will be no any verification because we are decentralized and we are all free to do it as long as we want, but then phone verification is just an easy thing and it will just add security.
Bitcoin ATM transaction fees are way too high.
For real? if that so then I will stick on the traditional one.
36  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Cryptocurrency is important for a country? or not... on: October 21, 2021, 01:25:38 PM
I don't think that cryptocurrency will make a certain country's economy recovery, even though we have seen the great benefits of having cryptocurrency, I still don't think that it will be the solution for every country's financial problem because cryptocurrency is just a "currency" or just an alternative for fiat.
Not for the country but for individuals.
This one, this is true, it is really good for someone or person who wants to earn money and feel the freedom, best example for this is those students who have already gain huge amount of profit in cryptocurrency compared on those persons who have their real life work.
37  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why is telling people you're into stocks "cool" but crypto is a big secret? on: October 21, 2021, 12:46:54 PM
Ever noticed how people would boast or proudly proclaim (or at least used to) that they invest and trade stocks, but they don't feel the same way about crypto, as if it's a secret never to be shared? Why is that?
Really and who are those people? as long as I know people tend to talk more when they are investing in cryptocurrency because of the hype and trend so they just also share the things that they are doing in crypto world. Maybe those people that you are pertaining just want silence, of course whenever someone who don't know about crypto sees that he is earning in cryptocurrency then that person might ask things about crypto then suddenly go invest as well and then once they have seen that the market is going down they will just ask you about what happening and seems like they are blaming you, I have experienced this thing before when someone asked me about crypto.
38  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Interest on Bitcoin on: October 21, 2021, 11:25:05 AM
Everyone who's holding already earn money in bitcoin as we have already reached the new ATH.
Do you feel this is risky, whoever owns the private key owns the BTC ?
Sharing your private key with someone is really risky, even though that is your family, you should never tell it to them as long as you have full trust in them, we should be practical, money always changes people so don't trust so quick. Always keep your private keys on your own, better to store them offline or write them on a piece of paper and make a double backup for this.
39  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The Crypto bans are temporary, we are on the right side of history. on: October 21, 2021, 09:56:50 AM
All these bans are temporary, we are still early and there are still a lot of things that might happen in the future, I am still hoping that cryptocurrency will be legalized in all countries because if that would happen for sure all of the people in this world who explore technology will explore cryptocurrency as well and that will really makes the price pump.
prohibitions for bitcoin have existed for a long time but the fact is that bitcoin is still standing and growing today, let's see if China is consistent with the ban it issued, or when the government changes, mining will exist even if it's hidden.
Yeah, this makes bitcoin really strong, there are still a lot of people who invest in cryptocurrency especially bitcoin despite of so many FUDS.
40  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin > Gold on: October 21, 2021, 07:51:32 AM
Even though we have seen a great potential of bitcoin over gold, bitcoin cannot still replace gold because of government regulation, bitcoin will never be accepted as it is a decentralized system and there is no way for a centralized system to accept cryptocurrency, but still even though they wouldn't accept bitcoin we are still free to explore the crypto world and invest in bitcoin which really makes me already fine, don't care whether our country accepts bitcoin or not as long as I can explore it.
