Man for real, I do remember the time that they (PayPal) banned bitcoin  and even closing the account of users that were making use of bitcoin, but this time around a lot of things have changed and it’s now those companies that banned bitcoin that are now accepting it in their platform and PayPal is now one of them.

I am not surprised that Coinbase has added then as a payment option, because PayPal is now allowing payments in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies (although the process is quite different) they are sure going to be letting their users make use of it in payment.

Yeah by this time, they themselves might have realized the possibilities of making good returns out of bitcoin investments. In January of this year, we were doing around $20k and right now above $55k; what else we need to prove the potential of bitcoin investments. One of the best ever opportunity all investors must think about.

Fortunately this year is immediate following year to halving hence we are having bull run. If OP was asking same question some other time then we might have needed to wait for years to show them a living proof. This kind of high volatility is one of the reason why most investors are still hesitating to invest with bitcoins.

That sounds like wild speculation . Because, right now BNB is ranked third on coinmarketcap but you are foreseeing something which is not at all having ethereum in between. I guess that must be a very long road ahead for BNB to reach out. I mean first it needs to overcome ethereum and then only I guess we can think about a competition between bitcoin and BNB; I am not sure that will happen any time soon.

After BNB, I guess people may go for RDD coins which may turn like how dogecoin is doing right now. But, dogecoin is backed up Elon Musk and RDD is not having any such kind of back up as far as I know.

Not all old coins are showing stable growth; I have seen some of the old coins got delisted from exchanges.
Still, I believe we can go for older coins like litecoin and waves because these other coins always having good reputation among this crypto community.

When there are enough supporters for the any old coin then that will have definite bright future but given that it should not be having heavy competition like how ethereum is facing against binance.

Trading can be a good option for the people who are having required skills but investing will be suitable for anyone because it does not require any skill. So, like you have said, anyone can go for anything but purely depending on their skill level.

Right now, I am doing both trading and investing because I am just a learner in crypto trading so I am not fully depending on trading for my living at the same time I am ready to hold for long duration so I am going for investing as well.

You mean it will be hard to find legitimate signal providers? I am also thinking so.
Because group of whales are easily making good profits out of some signal but individuals are not able to.
It means we need to pay very high fees so that we can get such type of signal otherwise we will be getting ineffective signals which may be working some day and may not some other day.

You may not fix that if you stop following your friend right away. Because, if you are already making profits then you will never find time to learn basics of crypto trading which includes technical analysis and risk management. I mean there are lots of things left for you to get yourself trade alone. Hence, if you start today then you may be successful after a year of time.

But, I am sure people who are comfortable with other's signal never find time and efforts to trade themselves. Moreover, I am sure that your profit level and your friend' definitely will not be same.

Yeah, when we are unable to predict with 100% accuracy then we cannot find any best time to book profits. Having plans through technical analysis will get anyone to somehow mange to catch the best time to sell still there cannot be anything guaranteed in crypto markets. What most people do is, they just fix target levels and they may not bother about best timing but they just need what level of profits for their capital, that's it.

It means you may target some 10% for your capital and then you can book profits and forget all other things. This way you can build your own best time to sell.

You are not anything short of exact my imagination. Honestly I am into practice to develop my intuition power but so far I'm not successful with that. I checked few of YouTube videos to help me but I am into practice still.

I believe we can make wonderful trades if we are having more than one strategy. When we are having multiple strategies then we can get double confirmation for our entry and exit levels which will be more than enough for getting sure and huge profits.

Yeah, I wonder why the sentiment around Bitcoin is "invest what you can risk to lose" because risk is always there even in real life businesses and yeah volatility is high in Bitcoins buts its more towards the positive side than the negative.

I mean Bitcoin drops $1k but rises $2k that is the kind of volatility Bitcoin has shown which I won't call volatility but rather growth pattern still I too am saving more in bitcoin after my all everyday expenses.

I can't talk on behalf of all the developing nations, I mean while they are building one thing, another thing is developed in the rich nations so they are always too late anyway but I can't talk for how good it is for them to at least reach to a certain level. However what I was trying to say is that neither USA nor China nor any other nation in the world does it for any good reason, they are not building stuff to make the world a better place, they are doing it so that they could get even richer and that's it, that is all there is about it.

If the only reason for USA, China or any other nation to help the others is to get themselves richer, that is sort of the colonist approach, maybe they are not taking slaves anymore but they are bringing stuff that is not a big problem for them and taking every last bit the other poorer nation have in return, all these super wealthy nations could afford to help the world to become great, but they are just caring about their money. Doesn't matter which one.

It is simply because all the good things are there, that is the only reason I have. I mean sure BSC is also great, but I am using that too, nobody forces you to use ETH and nothing else, if you like some others use them too. I personally have some funds saved aside so that I can test things, I see that money as money spend on education and that means I get to do whatever I want in something brand new and learn how it works and get better understanding of it.

This is why I was capable of checking everything and they looked all great, that means if you want to use ETH go ahead and do that, there are many good things there, if you want to use something else, like BSC or Tron then go ahead and add that too, as long as you have enough money to do two things, like even 100-200 dollars, that is fine to divide into two and spend it on two different places.

Honestly I do not invest into low marketcap coins that frequently because they end up being untested most of the time. That doesn't mean that they won't make any profit, even though 9 out of 10 will not be good at all, that 1 will make you x100 profit and thats awesome I agree, however reality is the ones at the top could still make you x2 and that is good enough for me, a guaranteed income from those coins means a lot more to me than the risk and potential of the low market cap ones.

I can still buy ethereum right now and there is a chance it could x2 in the next year, same with bnb, why would go with 576th coin and risk my investment for x5 when there is a x2 guaranteed eventually? Which is why I do not risk myself, my money is already not a lot, and if I risk that as well I will end up with absolutely nothing, I just go with the top three and I am loving the returns so far.

What do you mean by virtualizing of gold? Y’all should stop with all these confusion, gold remains what it is , it can’t be virtualized, but you can still invest in online and own a share of it from companies that have real gold bars (unless that’s the virtualizing of gold that you’re talking about, whereby companies dig or buy physical gold bars, and then let people own a percentage share of their storage of gold’s by investing, since people can’t go around with physical gold bars). So, I am guessing that’s what it is, because it is not changing from that.

Next thing I would like to add is that you all should stop looking for replacement, because none of these two things that you have mentioned here is going to replace the other, they are both going to still be around, just make your choice on what you like and stop trash-talking the other ffs.

From the image you have posted we can see that May isn’t really a bad month when it comes to bitcoin or should I say bitcoin?. But if I am going to be selling I don’t think it’s going to be all my bitcoin assets that I am going to sell, I might leave some of them, but it all depends on the situation I see the market at that time, that’s what is going to help me decide the next step to take.

As for the options of selling my altcoins to buy bitcoin, nah, I am not going to do that. This is starting to seem to me like it’s the time for altcoins, because my alts has been increasing in value a lot lately, while my bitcoin is kind of at the same point or sometimes there will be little decrease in value when the price moves to below $50k.

Your post is showing that you’re bitter, you must be having some serious issues other than what you’re complaining about here. Maybe you list money or something like that and you just want to pour your frustration.

At first I thought you were going to be talking about the Blockchain because it’s an open space that allows anyone to be tracing your address once they have it, and that way they can know how much goes into it and out (Of course that’s how it’s meant to be), and then I discovered that you’re just confused , because you were not arriving at any point with what you are saying here. Although you are right about a lot of people that wants to get rich quick, I know that there are so many of them.

If I remember correctly that is 200th such project which is faking gold as reserve and you may use google or this forum's search functionality to find all of them. Nothing new and people like you are new to adopt such shit projects and then regret later for disappointments.

Basically no devs will be rich to have that much of gold to begin a project with. So, they are simply faking something to make you people trapped.

You mean that we need more people to adopt bitcoin so that it will peak like before? I guess so far only less than 10% of world population might have adopted bitcoins hence there are plenty of people yet to adopt and hold bitcoins; it means there are higher possibilities for bitcoin to peak toward $100k and then $1M levels as well.

2030 in almost 9 years away and we may have bitcoin into mainstream adopting within that 9 years of time, who know?

Looking at how it is doing great right now and how we have broken over 54k+ price already, that is a great example how we are not going to drop to 25k soon. I am not saying it is impossible ever, it may happen in the future, we could have a crash like 2018 and we could go under 25k of course, that is possible, I am just saying it is not this one. When priced crashed from 64k levels to 49k and even a bit less, people assumed this crash was that crash and that is why there was talks of why we will not be reaching 100k, but we have gone over 54k+ now.

This is why I imagine 100k is not off the table yet, not saying we will reach there, we have as much chance to reach 25k as we have to 100k, which is why I think we should be careful, but nobody can say with guarantee that we will NOT reach 100k neither. So I am hopeful, I think we are going to see it happen one way or another.

Not just Bangladesh, I guess was all the countries might take time to understand the importance of having cryptocurrency regulated or with neutral stand. Until then, we might need to face such difficulties because government may impose any rule like they may start treating processing cryptocurrencies as the criminal activity as well. Not sure what the government is going to do but it is really an unfortunate situation for all the folks from Bangladesh.
