961  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I don't care what Saylor or Musk say anymore, I'm becoming a BTC individualist! on: June 09, 2021, 06:05:08 AM
I don't care anymore what these guys have to say

you may not care but most people do, see:



Source: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1396914548167233537

after that the cryptocurrency market started to calm down and recover

I'm becoming a BTC individualist. Their words and actions will have zero effect on me.

but they have the power to manipulate the market, you will not be able to hide in a shell and think that it will not affect you

I only hope someday BTC will reach the $1xx,xxx zone so I can fulfill some pretty basic human dreams, other than that I know this is the rich man playground;

I sold things I had and bought bitcoin, then sell more things and bought bitcoin, I hope I can make big profits
Every comment there might not be for support of what Elon musk is doing. We all know that, that guy is trying too hard to make himself some sort of cryptocurrency influencer just because some tweets have made some impact on the market trend in the recent past but that like then OP mentioned, I too believe will fade away soon where his tweets will no longer have the kind of initial effect.
I believe there's a lot better way he would have done it and have the whole backing of the crypto community instead of how it went.


962  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: El Salvador has become the first country to make #Bitcoin legal tender! 🇸🇻 on: June 09, 2021, 05:56:38 AM
Quote
President of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele: "Next week I will send to congress a bill that will make #bitcoin a legal tender."

https://twitter.com/BitcoinMagazine/status/1401279550538108933?s=19

Wow, that's amazing news!

I am impressed.

However, that is not done yet. President must submit it to congress, and the Congress may approve it or not! Anyway, amazing news and a big step for bitcoin!

Looks like it will be most likely approved:

Quote
The bill must still be reviewed by the country’s legislative assembly. But with the populist Bukele’s upstart political party in firm control of that body, approval seemed all but assured Saturday afternoon.
https://www.coindesk.com/president-of-el-salvador-says-hes-submitting-bill-to-make-bitcoin-legal-tender
No questions as most have said, a big step for Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in general. One step at a time and some day we might have more countries turning to this direction of Bitcoin adoption and I strongly believe that El Salvador is going to be our new China in terms of Bitcoin mining once this bill is approved by the country’s legislative assembly.
Bitcoin has come a long way in a short time and I believe this will do the country and its people more good  than harm.
963  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin/ETH replace fiat someday? on: June 08, 2021, 02:18:56 PM
To fight against the control of USD thus create an anchor for people all around the global, or to make transactions apparent in cyber world, Bitcoin was coined by Satoshi(the second one is more valid).
Will the day come when everyone uses Bitcoin in daily payment(supposing new tech is applied to avoid high gas fee) and thus fiat gets abandoned? Or it won't because the amount of Bitcoin is set and all Bitcin is practically manipulated by capitalists...
Obviously , it's nearly impossible for Bitcoin to realize permant and global circulation due to its high price and scarcity, which renders it harder to take the place of fiat but it sounds that ETH is likely to be an anchor and a tool for daily use alike, surpassing BTC is feasible.
They say, if a country is at war or in upheaval, buying Bitcoin is not wise for its high volatility and USD is a better choice.
How do you think Smiley
I don't know if a total adoption of Bitcoin and Ethereum as a means of payment globally and leading to the abandonment of Fiat currency will happen, but I do believe that if such a day should come, the manipulation of cryptocurrency or specifically Bitcoin and Ethereum will no longer be an issue because it will no longer be a free space like it is today where anyone that thinks because they have the might they can manipulate the market, that time it will be a more regulated space.

964  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are all altcoins dependent on Bitcoin? on: June 08, 2021, 02:01:55 PM
I want to understand if all altcoins are built upon the foundation of BTC. This is because when there is severe crash of BTC, all other coins, I mean all, also crash.

Is there no independence in the cryptocurrency world?

Thank you!

Most altcoins have no real connection to BTC, except their pairing on exchanges.
When BTC starts dropping, people usually exit alts and try to buy BTC at lower prices, thus causing a cascade effect
I hear what you are saying and kinda agree with you but why do the drop chats of all the ALTs almost the same as that of Bitcoin whether it is in an upward trend or downward trend? If you really take time to look at the chats during Bitcoin down trend and compare it with say, Ethereum, BNB and some other ALTs, it is almost 99% similar so I am thinking that same OPs question, why so much influence on other ALTs by Bitcoin whether positive or negative.
965  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: China bans Bitcoin again in 2021 on: June 07, 2021, 09:20:40 AM
I don’t think you need to panic. As early as a few years ago, China banned Bitcoin mining and issued other token projects, but they only had a short-term impact on Bitcoin, but soon btc It has returned to its original position, and this time just banned the mining of Bitcoin, which does not mean that the transaction is banned.
Exactly, people always find this news too concerning when in the grand scale of things, it doesn't have any sort of long lasting effect plus bitcoin mining will just be moved to other countries if the ban is a permanent one.
I believe that will be a better option for Bitcoin so that we don't continue to get into this position of thinking the market will crash reacting to such kind of news from China. We really need diversification in this part of the Bitcoin ecosystem so that one country doesn't believe they control mining.   
966  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What goes up must come down on: June 07, 2021, 09:13:29 AM
Agree, this market will not make any big move in the neartime, my plan for this condition is try to accumulate small bag while save the fund incase theres another big dump come to us.
Yes, but at least everyone can still get a certain amount of profit in the current market conditions because at times like now it is still very risky to buy some Altcoins in very high quantities.
to buy I think you have to make a belief in yourself. because after seeing how the market experienced a deep correction, it must have made some people panic about the value of assets that continued to decline. some have even sold at a loss due to following the market hype.
only those who believe and have good analysis will be sure to hold on to their diminishing assets. even most people equate it with 2018.

The problem is many people trapped on a joke project like Doge, i dont think hold em is a good option. If you hold a good project, at least just eat the hopium and increase your belief system...  Grin
I agree with you. My problem is not that Dogecoin has not been around for a long time too with the older Main Cons but because of the way its investors now think it is some super coin that can on its own grow the way it has grown without the help of Hypes. The question is, unlike other projects like Bitcoin and Ethereum that have gotten to where they are now because of their self-development and adoption, can Dogecoin do the same? certainly not. So if you believe that this is the type of coin you wish to invest in and hodl for a long time, Your Investment Your Will.


967  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Full of get-rich-quick opportunities at Bitcointalk on: June 07, 2021, 08:57:12 AM
What i can say is you are lucky enough, but i have to say, this is not a get-rich-quick platform, you made twice of money in the day time just because you are lucky, instead of losing half your money in one day.
If it was me ,i would not just because of some guy mention some coin then i go to buy it, haha, by the way, maybe this is the reason why i am not rich.
Grin Grin Grin it could be, and that might be my problem too because I don't see myself just investing in any coin just because I read it here that someone said what and what even though some rear times, some people might want to pass out information without making it obvious  Huh and you know what they say, The Higher the Risk the higher the reward  Wink
968  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Crazy Dogecoin run 100x in 2 years on: June 07, 2021, 08:52:39 AM
It can be reached 1$ if another hype begins, but i doubt it will be happens since the bear started and people are have so many fear and frustated on doge recently.
What other Hype are you expecting to continue to pull Dogecoin upward to the Imaginary $1 price most of you are hoping for? Elon must already do all that he could in a super Bull market and it couldn't get to that price, so I am curious about what more stunt is left to take Doge to Space  Huh
969  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: If Musk doesn't tweet Dogecoin, can it still soar? on: June 05, 2021, 09:29:29 AM
Dogecoin is only manipulated coin by Elon Musk, he is only the reason why it reaches its new ATH before but now it is now not too trend unlike before because maybe a lot of people now knows what is doing, it is only got hyped by what he has done and those coins that only got hyped because of a single person wouldn't be good for a long term investment.
Yes, all the events that happened to Dogecoin 90% were the work of Elon Musk who used his trust to manipulate many people in the market, so bad things are now starting to happen to Dogecoin where the pump on Dogecoin has started to slowly disappear.
It is inevitable. Those that believed that Elon Musk will be able to take Dogecoin to $1 were all dreaming and if this is not clear to them already, they will be recked soon. Elon Musk has tried to get that to happen even though some of us already knew that it was for his personal gains.

If Dogecoin was actually a solid coin, what could have been the best news for a coin's price to skyrocket when an exchange like Coinbase Pro announces the listing of Dogecoin, that type of news is enough to MOON some projects but what happened to Dogecoin price after the announcement? nothin.  Even with that and still Elons tweet, Dogecoin still went down in price.  Grin
970  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin truly moving forward? on: June 05, 2021, 09:18:12 AM
Sometimes I do notice that bitcoin experience some issues while increasing in value, Bitcoin have increased to $15,000 $20,00. Now we find bitcoin going low, Now I want us to understand no matter how dollar fall it can be as bitcoin, What is the solution of getting this solved?,if bitcoin is Depreciating in value let it not be much, because the falling of bitcoin really scare people away. Would you be happy if you purchase bitcoin worth $15,000 and in the next few months bitcoin is $5,000, would you be happy?. Let look into this and stop deceiving ourselves buy saying we are Investors, Gold investors don’t experience this at all, if bitcoin we go forward then we most know our stand.

I hope you are still in the forum and even not in crypto you must have seen how far Bitcoin has come from the $20k you mentioned back then to above $60k  recently. If you were truly a crypto enthusiast and have studied a bit about the past Bitcoin price even before you made your post back then, you must have seen how the price has changed over the years, and up till now, we still have people like you panicking every time Bitcoin price dips a bit.
971  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The fall from 65k to $30k was the best thing to ever happen to Bitcoin on: June 04, 2021, 04:53:29 PM
This was especially very good for HODLers to buy more Bitcoin. I also bought some more as a HODLer. But this period has been really bad for short-term investors. They've lost a lot of money before reaching their goals.
While this might be true it doesn't relate to every supposedly short term investors. Some times the market situations can make you change your plans, you could take some profits as a long-term investor if the market creates the opportunity and the wise short-term investors should know that they will only loss their money if the sell in the dip hence HODLing for a longer time should be the option. I have played both situations and I know many other investors most have too.
972  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I Haven't Checked Elon Musk's Tweets For 2 Weeks And Don't Plan To! Life Is Good on: June 03, 2021, 08:39:31 AM
And you should do the same! I don't care what/when/if he posted and it feels so good! No more FUD, I'm behaving like this guy doesn't exist and it feels awesome. Everything is nice, the vibe is cool and relaxed.

You should all do the same and you will see that HODLing is wonderful!
This is healthier, not that I usually check his tweeter feeds for news in the first place even though I use to follow him but not anymore which doesn't take anything away from him though but I have long since stopped paying attention to what is going on out there only that we cannot avoid what happens in here  Grin
I invest when I am comfortable with the market and take profits when I feel ok also.  
973  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Elon Musk's tweets violated court orders on: June 03, 2021, 08:29:05 AM
I don't understand why he hasn't been punished already. If he knows this and he violated what was not suppose to be done, I believe he should be punished immediately for his tweet that violated the law. I hope this will be implemented because this guy did cause a lot of pain to people's investment and I too believe his arrogancy will get him in huge problem soonest. 
974  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Dogecoin listed on Coinbase pro on: June 02, 2021, 09:07:54 AM
Grin Normal projects that have a product can hardly reach the price of $ 1. And 1 post of Elona sent the D.. to the moon. I think we started to devote too much to memes on the Internet. They just stopped thinking about the quality of the product.
I hear what you are saying and I also think we are getting to that point in the cryptocurrency space where most investors are not really interested in what the coin/token is all about and what it provides but rather people invest now because it is been promoted by a knowen celeb of Billionaire. As you said, there are a lot of good projects that are still under a $1 so what is going on?
975  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Doge is to hold should not be trading on: June 01, 2021, 10:17:11 AM
hold for what? doge has no project, no plans, and can't grow, doge is just a meme coin that has risen due to hype, and I think elon is just using it for personal gain, elon will never accept doge as a Tesla payment
I hope he does accept Dogecoin as payment for Tesla so that he, Elon musk can prove to the crypto community how crypto savvy he really is with Dogecoin. Most of these people don't understand that he is just hyping this coin for-profits purposes as he would do any coin for that matter.  How did we get here where Dogecoin is now been compared to Bitcoin  Cry
976  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do You Want Tesla To Accept Doge? on: June 01, 2021, 10:07:47 AM
I don't know why Elon Musk likes doge so much. I don't care about his tweet about it. it is like a game, someone have the power and famous person to influence the price of doge with his opinion. Be careful
I don't think he actually likes Dogecoin because we can say the same for Bitcoin since he was able to go the other way on Bitcoin in no time. Elon musk is a Businessman and will use any means necessary to make more millions and I believe that Dogecoin is just one of those means. He will hype it until he is satisfied and move to another project.
977  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How does Bitcoin help stop the funding of wars? on: May 31, 2021, 09:10:05 AM
So one of the most popular narratives I see is that the utilization of Bitcoin would help put an end to the illegal funding of wars overseas. How do you figure this?

If one entity needs to get currency to another entity they will be able to do so. The way that I am seeing it, it doesn't matter where the money comes from as long as they are getting the money in the first place. In fact, wouldn't Bitcoin make this type of funding more difficult to detect?

Then again, maybe I am looking at this the wrong way.

Could someone help shed some light on this narrative?
Even the governments of some states are now using cryptocurrencies to circumvent international sanctions. Of course, some weapons are also sold for cryptocurrency. Therefore, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies cannot stop wars, they even contribute to them to some extent. The high degree of confidentiality and anonymity is perfect for this.
I don't think that Bitcoin can help stop the funding of wars, if anything it could even make the payments for everything relating to funding the war easier because it's easy to transfer between parties. Even though we know that there are a lot of wars that have gone down before Bitcoin but I don't think that BItcoin can make any positive changes to it.   
978  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: in between the decision to hold or sell on: May 31, 2021, 08:49:12 AM
This depends on the trading method you are doing. If you are an arbitrage trader, I am sure that you often sell rather than hold, because by trading arbitrarily you have to sell quickly taking advantage of the price differences between exchanges.
I agree with you. I understand that your trading method also determines how you are able to take that decision to HODl. If you are also more into Derivatives trading, I believe at some point in the market you are forced to get out. I think the best Hodlers are the investors and not the traders, this way, they know it is just a matter of time before the market recovers that is even if it takes a couple of years.   
979  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Passive income on: May 30, 2021, 08:34:03 AM
What are some of the best ways to earn passive income right now? I was thinking about staking $CAKE, just staking it and not using liquidity farms. But not sure how profitable that would be, compared to some other methods. I have a 5000$ capital.
Thats a great choice, I can suggest that you must read BNB, Binance and BSC. So that you will know how important BNB in their BSC ecosystem. Cake is good, it was created under Binance.

BNB has staking and vaults that has the very decent apy offer out there.

I hope I help you even little.🙂
Binance is a good option like you mentioned. I held my BNB in the vault for a couple of months in the past because I wanted to be able to move them any time I wanted if the need arises and even though not many earnings I was ok with it and it worked  out for me well.

The job of YouTubers is to make money and they make videos for people to watch it. They can exaggerate any project but they are not deceiving us. A good project will have many people's awareness and investment. So please accept advertising in the cryptocurrency market as a reference only.
I agree with you but whether they are just giving their own expert opinion about a crypto project or they are shilling any particular crypto, it is still dependent on the investor to have their own insight about the project, Do some form of research on the project and let the YouTubers view only be a point of reference as you mentioned.
