1  Economy / Economics / Re: China's strategy on the Ukraine invasion war on: March 07, 2022, 06:03:04 AM
Regarding events in Russia and Ukraine, it is no different from China and Taiwan. During the war between Russia and Ukraine, many major powers chose to sanction Russia. China remains neutral and chooses to continue trade with Russia, but wants the war to end as soon as possible. NATO doesn't really help Ukraine much.

Bitcoin is not backed by any physical asset like Gold nor by any fiat currency. It makes me wonder if I should invest/trade in Bitcoin or not?
Bitcoin was not favored from the beginning, but is now regarded as legal tender by some countries. The price of Bitcoin is getting higher and higher, step by step to the world. If you want to invest, now is a good opportunity, you must understand the market and stick to it.
3  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: NO..India is NOT Banning Bitcoin on: December 13, 2021, 06:14:09 AM
The FUD continues.

India is not banning bitcoin as an asset class as many have eluded to. Many news outlets find that this angle is far better for attracting clicks.

India is looking to ban bitcoin as a method of payment. Meaning they are just trying to protect the interests of their future CBDC. People in India will NOT be banned from buying or selling bitcoin. The government has NO interest in banning bitcoin as an asset.

Once this kind of prohibition problem occurs, it is because it affects their own interests. Just like China's severe crackdown on virtual currencies, the reason is because China has its own currency and does not want its own citizens to buy and sell virtual currencies.

First of all, I want to ask you if Gold is backed by anything, or why do many people think that it is one of the best investment?
Most people say gold has historic significance to it, it's also used in industry quite a bit and is used a jewellry as well as other stuff.

The main thing increasing the price of gold is the miners profiting off it though by producing a scarcity, most industries can use platiumum better than gold too so there's less of a reason for its uses.



On the what is bitcoin backed by, what is currency backed by? There has been a lot of studies on the economy and many have found that the largest investments are in derivative assets (often people buying portions of assets or buying assets against other people selling them - while neither hold the asset - which does seem quite odd).

I've generally considered an investment in Bitcoin to be an investment in its: name, developer community and infrastructure at least.
Bitcoin is virtual, not as visible and tangible as gold, and gold has a long history and has many uses, but it is also limited, because it is more valuable because of its scarcity. But when investing in something, you should first understand and study it yourself.
5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Not everyone can be lucky when it comes to shitcoins on: August 28, 2021, 07:04:14 AM
This is indeed the truth. This kind of experience is not often mentioned. No one can control and master the volatility of encryption. Indeed, many people have invested in junk coins and made considerable profits. This is very lucky, because there are also unlucky people. Part of the loss may occur, so knowledge and common sense are necessary when investing.
6  Economy / Speculation / Re: What make people panic sell? on: August 28, 2021, 03:41:37 AM
The price fluctuation of the currency circle has a lot to do with some news about the market. Whether it is good or bad, it will arouse the emotions of investment enthusiasts, especially some unfavorable news, and some novices or inexperienced people are the easiest to choose to sell. This is a human instinct, panic because of falling prices. But we need to be patient if we want to make a profit.
7  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: With all your assets, Investing in Bitcoin is really a madness or beneficial ? on: August 18, 2021, 07:08:36 AM
Although Bitcoin is skyrocketing, as a working class, I would rather miss it than take the risk. Regardless of the future trend of Bitcoin, if it is said that Bitcoin will appreciate a hundred times in the future. Can you guarantee that you can hold Bitcoin for a long time?Increase the investment principal by selling real estate. This is not a qualified investor and the investment must bear the loss. Investment is a long-term business. Because of these uncertainties, there are too many irrational behaviors in the investment market.
8  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is Bit Civilization? on: August 17, 2021, 08:34:23 AM
The term Bitcoin civilization is indeed very novel. In the course of history, people have been innovating step by step and moving towards new stages. Bitcoin civilization is based on Bitcoin. There is no doubt that Bitcoin is an invention and a civilization. Perhaps this is precisely the creation of a free civilization. If the Internet era has improved human communication efficiency and social productivity, then the new civilization drawn by Bitcoin will regain a free world with technology and new rules.
9  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does the epidemic have a big impact on Bitcoin? on: August 12, 2021, 09:56:52 AM
Affected by the epidemic, contact between people has decreased, and the frequency of using cash has also decreased. This makes institutions and individuals more inclined to use digital currency instead of direct contact with transactions. Digital currencies will use this as an opportunity to increase the sentiment driven by the epidemic, which will cause the price of Bitcoin to rise.
10  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why crypto (bitcoin) is better than traditional money? on: August 11, 2021, 06:16:17 AM
The inflation of the financial crisis was largely caused by excessive currency issuance. Bitcoin stays away from inflation. When a new currency is issued in any currency, it has already determined how much to issue. Just like Bitcoin, only 21 million Bitcoins can be mined, but no one can increase its number.
When traditional currencies are transferred between the two countries, there are many obstacles and restrictions that make the user experience very poor. Cryptocurrency allows users in different parts of the world to have fast and efficient transfers.
11  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: About the popularity of Bitcoin on: August 11, 2021, 03:45:28 AM
If you are blind, do you want someone to set up your private key for you? Do you need to find someone to pay for you? If no one in life can be trusted and you have a lot of encrypted assets in your hands, then this will become a burden in life.
12  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Satoshi Nakamoto should have created Litecoin with the Bitcoin name on: August 11, 2021, 01:39:46 AM
Bitcoin and Litecoin are essentially virtual digital currencies, but the creation of Litecoin is an improvement on Bitcoin. It is significantly different from Bitcoin. The Litecoin network produces blocks faster than Bitcoin and can provide faster Transaction speed. The amount of currency issued by Litecoin is more than four times that of Bitcoin.
However, the price and transaction volume of Bitcoin is much greater than that of Litecoin. Litecoin is just a copy of Bitcoin. Bitcoin has a greater market value, a longer history, and a stronger consensus. No one would choose to abandon Bitcoin and choose Litecoin.
13  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: August 10, 2021, 07:23:01 AM
I am not sure why the market is rising, but we investors are all optimistic about the future trend of prices. At the current price, many people think that this price is underestimated, so this price fluctuation may just be a callback to the true value of the cryptocurrency. Whatever the reason, this field is worth celebrating.
14  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think is the relationship between Bitcoin and blockchain? on: August 10, 2021, 03:44:03 AM
The essence of blockchain is a decentralized distributed ledger database.
In essence, it should be said that there was Bitcoin first, and then blockchain. Bitcoin is a digital currency. The series of technologies involved in Bitcoin is called blockchain technology, and it is even the only blockchain application that has real influence.
15  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I rather stay hungry than sell my Bitcoin on: August 10, 2021, 02:53:39 AM
Everyone treats their own assets in different ways, but when I choose to invest, I will use my idle assets to invest, and every time I will choose some promising currencies or increase positions, I will leave myself a daily routine The cost of overhead. I think that the crypto market should not be taken as everything, you should have your own job instead of waiting for profit hungry.
16  Economy / Economics / Re: If you can get paid through cryptocurrency, do you still choose fiat currency? on: August 09, 2021, 07:27:22 AM
With the acceptance of cryptocurrency by more and more people, most of us are accustomed to getting paid in fiat currency. This method has penetrated our ideas. If Bitcoin is now proposed to pay salaries, most people should have difficulty Accept it, because cryptocurrency is unstable. If it is used as a reward, it will definitely cause instability of our income. No one is willing to shrink their own interests.
17  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What motivates you to start investing in cryptocurrency? on: August 09, 2021, 06:51:40 AM
A few years ago, I did not understand blockchain and Bitcoin. One day I suddenly saw Huobi, and when I went inside, there was actually this kind of technology.
I learned about the security of cryptocurrency. I don't like ordinary work. I am more willing to take risks. So I choose cryptocurrency. I am grateful, because of my courage, cryptocurrency has changed my life.
18  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Increasing acceptance level - Cryptocurrency on: August 09, 2021, 03:52:22 AM
That's cool. The first thing that surprised me is that in India, tricycles can already accept encryption.
However, in daily life, taking transportation is very common. In this case, the frequency of using encryption will be very high. Human wisdom is really high. I have never been to India. I am curious how to calculate the payment fee.Is it necessary to state the cost in advance? Or use a meter like a taxi?
19  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Is Bitcoin an independent property? on: August 07, 2021, 06:12:30 AM
Although it depends on which country you are married in. The main thing is property sharing, so all your things are hers, and vice versa. To be the marriage partner of each other, you must be honest, trust and like each other. I will not hide this with my significant other. Bitcoin is also purchased with investment funds. Shouldn't it be shared by two people?
20  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: some people uneducate about Bitcoins on: August 07, 2021, 03:57:24 AM
In fact, these negative news have also increased the attention of Bitcoin, and let more people start to understand Bitcoin.
Most of the people who spread negative news about Bitcoin have not entered the market. They don't understand Bitcoin, but only see the dividends in the encryption field. Because they have not enjoyed it, they will be psychologically uncomfortable.
The other part is to want to get rich overnight and enter the market hastily, without understanding anything, lacking knowledge of the currency circle, and then losing the initial investment principal due to investment failure, so that slander the currency circle.
There are risks in any investment. If you want to enjoy profits, you have to take risks. Without the most basic knowledge, everything is useless. All failures are to lay the foundation for success.
