Family is one of the most important things anybody has in their life. You can have all the money & all the success possible but if you don’t have a family or at the least, a close group of friends then you will find it hard to live a happy life.

Treat your family well & protect them.

I would sign this if I thought it would do anything constructive but it won’t so I won’t. Besides Goldman Gary is following orders to delay a spot ETF & be hostile towards bitcoin. If he was replaced the next shill would be exactly the same.

10BTC will make you a millionaire in the next bull run.
Something like 145 ETH will make you a millionaire in the next bull run. Various shitcoins will perform very well but I can’t provide an educated guess on which ones & how many you’ll need as they’re such a lottery.
1644  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Sentiment Poll for August on: August 03, 2022, 02:16:32 PM
I think a lower low will form before the end of 2022. We will trend mainly sideways for the first half of 2023 but start to slowly rise as the halving in April 2024 nears.
1645  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Your ultimate choice? on: August 01, 2022, 08:57:37 PM
Bitcoin has longevity & proven to only go up over time (with volatility in between). ETH is OK but all the other shitcoins I do not trust at all. You can not be safe in centralised coins, they can rug you at any moment. Bitcoin is decentralised, nobody can take your bitcoin from you. Countries can ban it & or mining but so what, bitcoin can not be stopped. A new block is mined every 10 minutes & there's nothing anybody can do about it. Proof of work is the best.
1646  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What will the next Bull run look like? on: August 01, 2022, 07:57:39 PM
The next bull run will probably start about 9 months are the next bitcoin block reward halving. Tye next one is estimated to be April 2024 so you are looking at early 2025 before there are any real fireworks. Alts tend to lag behind bitcoin’s lead so maybe a little longer. We are undoubtedly in a bear market now though so you have time to accumulate.
1647  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are Early Adopters rich? on: August 01, 2022, 07:51:33 PM
Early adopters who didn’t sell much too early are fiat rich. There are many early adopters who sold too early & will forever live in regret. I have seen loads of broke early adopters even on this forum.

Lots of people will give you crappy advice so I’ll just advise you that very few ‘active’ day traders make money. Most of them fail miserably. You need to buy bitcoin & hold for multiple years. Actively trading is recipe for disaster.
Save regularly with your monthly income, buy bitcoin, don’t spend or sell it. Come back & thank me in 10 years.
1649  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Does staking even make any sense on: July 28, 2022, 09:54:30 AM
After recent events I wouldn’t even consider it.

Seriously get your coins off exchanges & even worse, don’t think about trying to earn yield by giving up your keys. It’s just not worth the risk.

My first thought on this weak weak hands but let’s be honest here, Musk is one of the most intelligent people on earth. Surely he's one step ahead of the game here. Maybe he’s calculated the probability that we fall from here & he can buy them all back much cheaper. Maybe he’s telling the truth & TESLA needed cash, hmmmmm.

1652  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Your ultimate choice? on: July 26, 2022, 09:51:25 AM
Bitcoin is always my first choice, it’s the most reputable & highly adopted coin. Eth is a good coin too but I’m a little nervous about the merge. If you asked me one coin to have my whole net worth in though it’d definitely be bitcoin, all day every day.
1653  Other / Off-topic / Re: Will banks inflate Bitcoin in the same way that they do fiat money? on: July 26, 2022, 09:21:40 AM
One of Bitcoin's key advantages is that it is meant to be restricted to 21 million coins. As a result, it would be an excellent store of wealth and an inflation hedge.

But what stops banks from producing it out of thin air, just as they do with dollars and euros?



Let we look at it in monetary terms:



Joe, the entrepreneur, wants to start a business. He visits a bank and "takes out a loan." That is, the bank enters "Joe's balance is $100,000" into their computer. Joe then employs Sue. Sue works her tail off for one month and is "paid" $5,000. Joe instructs his bank to "pay" Sue $5,000.


As a result, the bank records it in their computer "Joe's account balance is 95,000 dollars. Sue's account balance is $5,000 ".



The tale would be the same if you changed "Dollar" to "Bitcoin" or "Purple Diamonds" or anything. The bank's computer is unconcerned with the number of Bitcoins or Purple Diamonds in circulation. It's simply a SQL database.



So, if Bitcoin becomes the new money, individuals will soon "possess" billions of them collectively, right?



Is there something I'm missing?

There is a cap of 21,000,000 bitcoin. There will never be any more, I suggest you read the bitcoin whitepaper. Bitcoin is decentralised, banks can’t do anything about the supply cap.

Thanks for sharing this very personal story. Your son is involved with bitcoin from his very first day Smiley
This is the first time I’ve heard such a story, I’m sure in a few decades things like this will be more common. You may be the very first to pay for a service like this with bitcoin. Congratulations on the birth also.

Use an escort service if you’re after a girl for an evening. I’m not going to do the work for you though, get inventive & use a reputable search engine, it’s not hard my friend.

Be careful though, you get what you pay for.
1656  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Stablecoins is a good way to keep and save money or not? on: July 23, 2022, 03:48:17 PM
After what happened recently with UST & LUNA I would not put much faith in stablecoins. US Gov are desperate for Tether to fail too, I wouldn’t be surprised to see them try anything to take Tether down. For this reason I think keeping funds in stablecoins for any longer than necessary is negligent.
1657  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: FUD Has Finally Taken Its Toll on Me on: July 23, 2022, 02:02:16 PM
You’re not the first & you won’t be the last weak hands in bitcoin, OP. I’ve seen so many sell like yourself when the going gets tough. Bitcoin always recovers though & goes on to reach new highs. I can advise you to hodl & not sell but it’s up to you.

We’re in a bear market but that should make you want to buy, not sell. This is when money is made, buy more, don’t sell.
1658  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I Have Donated My Campaign BTC to buy Laptop for Practical Classes on: July 23, 2022, 01:24:11 PM
That’s amazing OP & thank you for sharing. Really nice to see positive stories coming from the forum regarding signature campaigns. I see lots of people moaning about signature campaigns & sometimes spamming but this is an example of why they should never be stopped.

Good luck to you OP & all the children that this helps.

Bitcoin is a genius invention, everything about it makes it the single most amazing innovation of our lifetimes. It is going to take a long time for the volatility in price to go so it can be classed as a stable coin of sorts.
1660  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Your recent altcoin investment and why? on: July 23, 2022, 01:21:42 PM
I am thinking to invest in pulsechain & pulsex when they go live. Hex creator Richard Heart has been a good guy to follow for some time. I think he will make them successful so I will buy.
