A slap on the wrist!

Bank of America's net profit last year, after taxes, was $30.5B.

It's profits in the last quarter alone (Q2) were $9.1B.

This fine will not hurt them in any way, it is just "the cost of doing business" as they call it.

To put that into perspective, they make around $1.2 billion in just 2 weeks on average.

Oh and also, today, in about 5 hours, they are going to release their Q3 reports.


How convenient for the stock price, isn't it?

There was a time for altcoins when it was possible to make a lot of profit but that time is not there anymore. If that time was still there then a lot of good profit could be made.

There are some tokens in the wallet that have become useless and have no value. Do you still have any altcoins in your holdings like this that currently have no value at all?

Hi,

I know that what I’m talking about is never possible—we can never go back to the past. But your ideas, thoughts, hopes, and mistakes from 10 years ago can help newbies learn from them.

I want to know: if you could go back 10 years, what mistakes would you correct? What decision would you make about Bitcoin?

I want you to give good feedback so that newbies don't make the same mistakes as you and use their time wisely.

Bitcoin has long been the only cryptocurrency to remain firmly at the top among other cryptocurrencies. And so far no altcoin has ever surpassed Bitcoin’s market capitalization. Ethereum is the second-largest cryptocurrency after Bitcoin and appears to be firmly entrenched in its second-place position. As too date no altcoin has shown any signs of approaching Bitcoin’s market cap. And the gap is very wide compared to some of the altcoins in the top ten. New competitors like Solana or Hype still have a very hard time catching up to Ethereum So I personally think it’s very difficult for other altcoins to come close to Bitcoin. And it seems that a major overhaul would be needed for an altcoin that wants to rival Bitcoin like  having a strong vision like Bitcoin’s regarding its scarcity or even its ever-growing popularity, where it consistently attracts people to use it for their various needs.


I’d like to know, is there a scenario in which an altcoin could surpass Bitcoin?

The rich man has information at his finger tips especially investment. The rich man has knowledge because he has acquired financial knowledge and a certificate to back it up but the poor man is always chasing degrees here and there. Here, education is not the problem but financial and investment knowledge are. Take Bitcoin for example,there are those who have made a whole lot of money from it. Those who made money from Bitcoin are those who have the knowledge of it. The poor man chases degree without financial knowledge,am not saying chasing degrees is a bad thing but rather am saying balance it with financial knowledge. What is your take

Αυτά παθαίνει όποιος θέλει να το παίξει «νόμιμος» στην γκλίτσα του τσοπάνη.

Τα κρατάς σε BTC και τα ξοδεύεις λίγα-λίγα.

Αν δεις το Vigilant Citizen και ποιοί το προωθούν (ο «αντισυστημικός» Μασκ που έχει προωθήσει από mRNA, μέχρι carbon credits), είναι πασιφανές ότι «ψήνεται» race war (λευκοί vs λάθρο), με σκοπό να γίνει μεγάλη αιματοχυσία, η οποία θα είναι το ιδανικό «πάτημα» για την Ελίτ να φέρουν στρατιωτική καταστολή και να εγκαθιδρύσουν το Project Panopticon (κάμερες κάθε 50 μέτρα που θα στέλνουν feed στην AI, Digital ID, social credit score κλπ.)

Θυμάσαι ποιός είχε οργασμό εδώ μέσα με τις κάμερες.

Και στον πολιτικό κόσμο θα βάλουν πλάτη ο Τζήμερος και η Σλατινοπούλου.

Γενικά η όλη φάση με τη λαθρομετανάστευση, τους βιασμούς (εδώ μούγκα οι Φεμιναζί), το δικαστικό σύστημα που χαϊδεύει τους εισαγόμενους εγκληματίες (ενώ τους λευκούς τους ξεσκίζει) έχει σκοπό να τσαντίσει τον μέσο λευκό άνδρα, μέχρι να του σπάσουν τα νεύρα και να γίνει αυτόκλητος τιμωρός.

Σαν να πας με ένα ξύλο και να ενοχλείς μια σφηκοφωλιά ή μια οχιά... και μετά να το παίζεις και θύμα αν αμυνθεί.

Θυμίζει τη Βίβλο έτσι όπως είναι δομημένο. Σαν η περίοδος πριν το Satoshi να είναι η Παλαιά Διαθήκη, και η περίοδος μετά-Satoshi να είναι η Καινή. Σαν να έχουμε μια τάση η άνθρωποι να θεωρούμε κάποια πράγματα ότι έχουν θεϊκή παρέμβαση.

Θα μπορούσε άραγε και η Βίβλος να προέρχεται από κάτι αντίστοιχο που δε γνωρίζουμε; Food for thought.

Και στη Γερμανία τα ίδια ισχύουν και τώρα δεν πάνε καθόλου καλά.

It is not very straightforward like you think. There are many countries like Venezuela, Sudan, Lebanon, Iran, Turkiye and Nigeria that are hit with high inflation, making their local currencies to be highly devalued, many people in this countries find it easy to go for stable coins than going for domiciliary account. But you are right that having fiat is better than stable coins but that will be if the inflation in a country is fair and not too much.

I have seen this chain for a while now and it does show that there are just some unlucky and miscalculated turn of events.

I'm curious to what would happen to the dApps built on Blast? I'm thinking that they would probably go and go to turn their attention in other L2s. There would probably some that could interrupt services in Blast.

What L2 network would have this outcome as well? I think it's not just about the incentives but checking the infrastructure, sequencers, security, etc. to be sustainable. I do hope that other L2s would be learning form this.
^{P.S. Additional request to change the thread title.} 

I have registered on many exchanges just because I am a trader. Among the many were some centralized no KYC and KYC. Presently I am using 6 different exchanges which I divided my coins among. While trading I use just 3 exchanges actively for grid trading. Grid trading helped me divided my coins on different exchanges in case one exchange is exploited, get it is a trading strategy similar to averaging or a form of averaging.

Some of the exchanges that I am using have been hacked before, but luckily I always do not have money on the exchange at the time of the hack. Example is Bitget, I was having just $1 on the exchange while having money on four other exchanges at the time of the hack.

I also use leverage for my advantage. Example is if I have $1050 for trading, I send $350 to 3 exchanges. Instead of using 1x leverage, I use 3x leverage. I can use as low as 0.2x leverage, depending on the coin pair that I am trading.

These are the ways I have reduced the probability of losing too much money on exchanges. I want to see your own opinions of what you are doing to reduce the chance of losing too much money on exchanges during hack.

I'm starting my own thread since the other airdrop threads are basically dead and the guys who started them don't care about them anymore and left.

I was basically the only one sharing info.  I feel like the rest were starting to hide and withold info.  Mmm that doesn't work if people stop sharing what they know.

So yeah...  I'll be giving some info here soon.  The bear market is the best time to start grinding airdrops again.  

One stablecoin, several networks: ERC20, TRC20, BEP20, Solana, Polygon and others. Fees, confirmation speed and merchant, wallet and exchange support differ between them.

When paying an online merchant, what decides your choice first: the network, the fee, or where your funds already sit?

Assalamu Alaikum. I am a staff member at a complex and reside in Gazipur. I currently work for a reputable company but wish to start a business in Gazipur—one where products can be sold through both online and offline channels. Although I plan to start on a small scale, I want the business to have the potential for significant growth in the future. I intend to launch this venture with a budget of $1,000 to $1,200; what kind of business would you suggest? I believe many of you here are involved in business in real life, so I would appreciate your advice and guidance. I also hope you will share your insights regarding any businesses you might be running yourselves.
Thank you.

I need your help, coming from a newbie please don't mind.
What are the list of jobs that will forever survives?

Even it doesn't have to be a job, just something that is a fuel of money, something that will never die and if ones skill is based around it such space will never die.

The only one I can come up with is stock market, the end of stock market means the end of the world, maybe if a might omnipotent nuke get released into the world.

Stocks can never die and just imagine if one is good at trading stocks, they will never go out of business.
What do you think is qualified for the list?

Small businesses like restaurants, local shops, and other small enterprises play a huge role in every economy.
Individually they may seem small, but together they create jobs and keep the economy running. That’s why they are often called the "backbone of the economy".
However, these businesses often face big challenges like
- Limited access to loans
- Higher taxes
- Tough competition from big companies

This raises an important question: Should governments do more to support small businesses?

First of all, I must apologise for posting such a serious topic on the 1st of April, but I've had it as a draft for a while and today is the day.

Tonight, I would like to bring what in some circles has been recognised as 'hidden epidemic' - Neurotoxicity caused by excess of Vitamin B6.
Don't get it wrong - Vitamin B6 is absolutely crucial, but the RDA is just 1.3mg and the half life is about a MONTH!. So your body doesn't get rid of the excess as efficiently as with other water-soluble vitamins.

Now where it gets interesting: many multivitamin supplements contain 100mg of B6 per a pill, which is almost a hundred times more than RDA! Furthermore, many foods and drinks are fortified with vitamins nowadays, which usually includes B6. Usually that would be cereals, protein bars and powders, electrolyte drinks and energy drinks and more.

I've been dealing with B6 toxicity for months (and unknowingly - for years) and as I've been researching the matter I was astonished by how many people are affected by it, and whas is even more scary - how many don't even know that their symptoms are caused by it

Australia seems to be the only nation to be seriously alarmed by it so far as I've not seen any other states to take actions but we can see the Aussies are feeling very serious about it:

Vitamin B6 toxicity cases prompt supplements to be restricted - ABC news Australia

Vitamin B6 crisis will persist despite new rules, expert warns - The University of Sydney

Some more awareness from MSM:

What is vitamin B6 toxicity and what are the symptoms of taking too much? - Guardian

Simon never linked the pain in his hands and feet to multivitamins – but a pathology test did
This article is more than 1 year old
A growing number of consumers are presenting with symptoms linked to high levels of vitamin B6, pathologists say, while the supplement industry goes unpoliced


Vitamin B6 toxicity is more likely to develop among dehydrated individuals, which means people who sweat a lot or drink too much water without adequate sodium intake are seriously at risk.
Many cases of so-called ''Long COVID" turned out to be B6 toxicity that was asymptomatically present before the acute respiratory disease and started manifesting after severe dehydration caused by the severe respiratory infection.

Remember, health is the ultimate wealth. If you take multivitamin supplements, consume protein bars or shakes, drink energy or sports drinks - count how much vitamin B6 you consume daily and if it has been significantly above the RDA, maybe you should get your levels in blood tested.

https://understandingb6toxicity.com/ is possibly the most complete database of everything related to B6 toxicity. WARNING: the site also sells some supplement products. It is NOT an advertisement and if anything, I strictly advise AGAINST purchasing supplements from brands without long history and impeccable reputation worldwide.

I'm not a medical specialist and there are online communities with more experienced people, however, if you are dealing with it as well and need someone to talk to, my DMs are always open for you.
