I understand your scepticism, but i don't think that problem will be in adoption but in the fact that there's no suitable ZK tech for it yet that governments would allow in larger scale. We are in the testing phase of few alpha versions that are most likely not going to take off as any of current platforms isn't really regulatory compliant or safe enough.

And while there technically still are people that 2023 Internet user statistics ] don't have an access to internet, [/url]there are people who don't have an access to banking or money either. But in civilized countries those numbers of internet users are way up, And that number is slowly increasing as the meaning and demand for physcal cash is decreasing. And this tech will start from first world contries, that's for sure.

Spot on. Shame doesn't need religion to fuel it but it helps. I think it's frowned upon no matter where you live, especially if you are doing it a lot. Which is weird. In finland it means you are contributing to lots of charities as well when you gamble. So it should be viewed as a public service to put your money in.

I guess people see the generic gambler as irresponsible, even if they don't know anything about their lives. And i am guessing there's a bit of jealousity when gamblers win and because gamblers dare to live more on the edge, while non-gamblers deny that from themselves. So they are easy bunch to hate or pity. I still see haters as a minority as most people know you can gamble while not being an addict or irresponsible.

I am only speculating here, but i am guessing that mandatory kyc will eventually apply to everyone, in every casino dealing with stablecoins or fiat money that is.

As this seems like a temporary solution to eventually fill regulatory demands.
 
Because when you think about it, asking kyc for just for newcomers doesn't really make sense unless it's a step by step system. As confirming IDs and scaling the process for applying to everyone instantly would require insane amount of work and it would take time while customers would need to wait in line for approval. Step by step system seems to make most sense to me.

That's how i am reasoning it anyway and i am not against kycs. I see them as necessary evil, however i wish someone would make a ZK based identification system to prevent id thefts via hacks.

Maybe focus on hunting new cutting edge new tech in crypto and if you are lucky they will reward the active users with their token. That's how every successful airdrops have worked. If they announce airdrop before airdrop, it will get botted out and you most likely won't get anything worth money. In fact you most likely end up spending more then airdrop just by using the product in every way you can think of.

That tactic, of actually caring about the project and getting rewarded for it has given me a lots of money via airdrops.

Why is it absurd that people sell with any price they get for free at the bear market. Everyone knows it can drop a lot from here, so why not sell and get something.

Remember IMX and GODS airdrop? I sold gods in $5 which was near all time low at the time. So was it low and absurd to sell too or was it having a perspective on over priced valuation? As now GODS is $0.12
IMX i sold little under $5 which seemed like a bad price at the time. I just saw it over priced, and now it's $0.62.

It's not always about having some pocket money. People have made a lot of money selling BLUR and it's still quite high in the marketcap considering that it doesn't have an interesting or attractive useful use case that i can see.

I have to say that OP chose a good day to chill them as soon after this post, they all rised something like 100% just in days. They were pumped already because of the chatgpt hype so you would have missed the big bucks, but as they now are finally dropping with the rest of the market, we can see it was just hype. AI projects doesn't need cryptos. And i am assuming most people know this but are still buying it just like doge-related coins on doge hype.

Why would that name make sense over any other name? You don't create a currency because you think you have a clever name for it. It wouldn't have any fundamentals other than that and no real reason to exist.
Also there is a crypto called Merit in coinmarketcap, not only that, there's Merit Circle and Meritcoins. Most likely there has been several tokens that didn't live up to be in coinmarketcap.

So to answer to your question, it isn't a good idea to create a crypto just because you have name for it.

Don't know who these experts are but i see that $50k being totally possible.

People have been underestimating and fudding ETH for so long as it's pretty easy to fud, it's bulky and expensive to use. why not use some centralized smart contract platform or platform that's fast because it doesn't have enough users. I have even been on that ship who dislikes eth. But upcoming and already happened changes are so radical that people don't know what hit them after eth scales. It's even deflationary now and we are at the top of the curve turning back, so people don't see the effect yet, but they will.

I haven't found one reliable app that could do everything i want, but i am using shared google spread sheet and calendar with a group of friends that we update from various sources manually. To put in halvings, upcoming legistlations, halvings, airdrops etc.

Twitter used to be fastest way to get news alerts, these days it's just a confusing place full of trolls and none of my filtering seems to make it better. So i stick with browsing biggest news sites that are focused on economy. Those are pretty much a matter of taste and there's no "right" one to follow.

You also might want to google "Economic Calendar" of your liking to follow.

I am sure some of them can, but some of them will struggle because addiction is not something you can pray away. But you definitely can use religion as a walking stick trough hard times. Usually person changes other patterns in their life as well, so it will be easier to stay away from addiction.

Well obviously, but he would be doing it in secret because peer pressure of religious community. They wouldn't be trying to hide from deity they worship. Or they could even find loopholes from the religion to justify their gambling.

Well panic selling is quite misunderstood as it can be a way to save money. If you are fast and ahead of curve. And you are facing a 2 year bear run, panic selling right at the start is beneficial.
I see selling in pure desperation or in rage, way worse.

When you have holded for a long time, you have almost nothing left and in a desperate moment you try to save what rest of you have left. I have seen people rage quitting, having meltdowns in absolute bottom, turning their passion into fud fire sale and total mayhem in the chats and forum, and right before mooning. I have sold the bottom too, but it wasn't because of fear, it was because of disbelief and frustration.
I guess i could regret it as it would have been life changing money if i managed to sell the top.

and is critique on in is justified when it's going to be just a dip, but this wasn't a dip but it started from 6 month crash from 2021 and we are still not out of the woods even if we , in fact situation looks so bad it almost stopped the bull run.

So people who panic sold, probably made money. Now we the sentiment seems to be desperation and disbelief and selling on that would be worse.
But i agree, dca is a good tactic in general.

Is your analysis of really "it mooned before it will moon again"? Is that really the only reason for it to moon? How about the fundamentals of it and why those other coins useless? Because they didn't moon.

I see this kind of low effort meme-like "technical analysis" as a worthless angle when we could list actual use case reasons for it to moon. And compare it to other coins as well in some other way then saying they are "useless"

True, but also you don't need FUN tokens to play. I am playing in Freebitco.in constantly but i don't have that much use for freebies that i would get by "staking" FUN. I understand why some people see them worth it especially in these prices, but if the benefits were radically better, i most likely would buy some too, if the amount needed for those benefits wouldn't be irrationally high. Then again they wouldn't be that cheap to begin with if they gave better benefits.

I saw same people in my last apartment buildings filling several rows of lottery weekly, some playing even with same number, and they couldn't stop as if they would, they were afraid that those numbers woudl finally come, So they'll be playing those numbers their whole life as it's safe to assume that they will never come. Some of them also had a routine to buy scratch tickets on same days.

And one of my girlfriend was working in the bingo. She said that same faces were there constantly. It was a way to past the time and to see friends to them. So i would call that an addiction as they were using money for it the whole time they were in there.

I am ignoring the misleading title and just answer to this.

There's nothing spiritual about it. Getting trough to an addict doesn't happen by screaming, it happens by listening and conversation, but if you really want to have an effect, maybe organize intervention with closest friends and talk with the addict. But have your basis covered and learn about gambling addiction before doing that. Because shouting only drives the addict away from your influence. That could make them just hide deeper in themselves.

There are also ton of peer support groups in the internet, there were even some peer support threads here in bitcointalk if i recall correctly. Point the addict to those, he might even enjoy talking with people who understand them and are not screaming to them, but work as cautionary examples.

And needless to say on top of those, professional help gives you best results.

When token is BEP-20, it isn't on "binance", it's on binance smart chain. So for starters that's misleading. Then you might want to explain how exactly this has a fair lauch? I mean what do you mean about it because it has sure gone trough inflation of meaning. So maybe explain it by comparing to projects that don't have fair launch. Another buzz term is "organic growth". What steps exactly have you taken to achieve that?

Game itself doesn't look bad, but it isn't looking pro either. And with these days standards, if you want to build fps what people will play it needs to work really smoothly or it needs at least original idea. From your trailer i am not getting either. It seems quite generic and i can't figure out why that was worth posting. I am guessing you wanted to show that you have something. Hopefully it was alpha stage or something, still, why post alpha footage if it's not ground breaking.

Well he is being sued over dogecoin price manipulation for more money then he owns, so he probably ends up paying a lot. And even after he was sued he seemed to double down and continue. Now there are more evidence against him. But this is going to be such a big case as he is a powerful individual that it will take ages to proceed to actual court. Depending who rules the congress then, this could be end of the era where musk is the richest guy in the world.

Volatility itself isn't really the problem, or would yo say the same if we started mooning? Volatility is the key reason why people are buying alts. Problem is that we are on the bear market and fundamentals are more then horrible right now.

I checked it and that's not even on the market or launched yet. So shilling is quite unnecessary

I don't even like litecoin but there is definitely development happening, community is strong and as it's fair distribution POW it's not going to be in danger of being declared as a security. Also it has never gone down. Which can't be said in ton of the altcoins out there.

I see it as pointless and my trust on it vanished when charlie sold his LTC in the top. But wouldn't say it doesn't have power behind it.

Right now, i can't see any good option no matter the altcoin. Changes are that we are not in the botton so basically all coins would drop in price if that was the true. Some would say that it's good to buy when they are cheap but i'll say why buy now if you can buy -50% next week. No one really knows what happens and maybe you'll get lucky and find the one coin that doesn't drop but i would say that changes are against you.

Prices will come up eventually but no one knows when. 4 year cycle might have been broken as people are waiting it to play out. We might be here for a while. Fundamentals right now look terrifying
