Meme coin is always risky for the fact that to many of those created token are just for scam so you need to be careful on your investment and don't expect to much since that's what scam devs like since they want you to hold while them are dumping.

If we talk about effect well nothing really since the market of meme coin is not so huge and even though the hype is growing then maybe scamming is happening still it cannot   affect the market as a whole.

As long as CBDC is Centralized (as the name suggests) or as long as Centralized Financial system is concerned, expect its ideals/principles to be in complete opposite of the ideals of Decentralized currencies like Bitcoin. Besides, Fiat or National Currency like the CBDC would have to be in accordance with existing national laws that guide the modern financial system. Such laws cannot guarantee users privacy or prevent accounts freezing, as long as centralization is concerned. So, users should not expect their fundamental rights not to be violated by Central Bank, governments or others.

Gold has a finite supply because we can only mine the gold on earth and one day there won't be any gold to mine anymore this is why gold is considered an asserts, Bitcoin also has a finite supply as well so this assets can always be moving in an opposite direction of where the economy is heading. People are looking for where to invest their money and this assets are the best things for investment at the moment.

The recent pumps of the market is in response to the halving of Bitcoin reward that's been scheduled for 2024, since that's just next year investors are buying Bitcoin and this act will keep making the price to rise. The recession has nothing to do with the rise of bitcoin.

The main problem is that we must have people we can fully trust to be invited to work together in growing the common economy including in investment and the like. Working with other people I think is quite difficult. because building trust with other people is quite difficult. but the example reported by the OP is 4 siblings from Arab countries. and I know that brotherhood in Arabia is very close so they can build mutual trust well. Maybe if my brother is willing to do it with me. so I can think of this idea too.

But I will only do it in certain fields. like working together to buy a large land property. Because land property can be distributed evenly after purchase. even land ownership documents can also be broken down into several names. so in this investment field maybe I think this idea is pretty good. but for other investments like not suitable.

I have to agree with this. Bitcoin halving does not mean that bitcoin price will rise immediately and that people will expect a get-rich-quick that time. No, it will still take months before the price will create a significant effect. However at some point, bitcoin halving only create a very small price increase, the reason why we should not be overwhelmed about it. Instead, we should invest through DCAing because it has the biggest potentials to succeed in the future, and not because bitcoin halving is nearly approaching that everyone will expect to get massive profits.

That answer will remain unknown for now, because I don't think the government will be that friendly with Bitcoin still, there will be a thin line between Bitcoin and Fiat/CBDC even if ETFs are approved or somehow the government leave Bitcoin be for it's people, if there comes a day where Decentralized currency is acceptable by the government I will be shocked.

Bitcoin was created to go against these people (Centralization and the Government) and they know it, that's why they don't want to see it prevail, yet they are doing all they can and it's still not working.

Bitcoin and Fiat will co-exist but the replacement of Fiat with Bitcoin is never going to come true.

It looks like its getting tough to break thru the barrier however keep in mind that when it comes to crypto price action. When we are consolidating on resistance, its usually bullish. And same if it consolidates on support, its usually bearish.

Remember 2017, we kept touching the $6K area and basically went nowhere for many months. Many people assumed that it was the bottom when the markets havent moved in weeks, and then in November we finally broke thru and it was a nasty crash. I think its the same setup here only opposite.

The one thing that will break our momentum to hold until it reaches $100k is the market volatility and FUD, we never want to miss our accumulated profit, it's ok to HODL but if you keep missing your accumulated profit and you dedicated your coins to holding until reaches a specific price is not good and you are losing a lot, we have to realize our profit from time to time, this is the reason why we need to follow the chart and the market.
The theory of buy low and sell high always applies here in Cryptocurrency, it's not your dedication to making a profit in the future but to gaining a little profit when you can as the market moves from bear to bull.

Might not be such a fresh indicator for some, but certainly at the back of my head I've always had it in my gut that when it's been majority sideways for a really long time, it's the calm before a storm. Now, whether that means volatility following a bull or a bear, never been able to tell.

It's the age old conundrum. Low volatility suggests consolidation for a show of strength. But is it for the bull or bear? I doubt there's strong evidence to point to either side, and even the chart seems 50/50 in either direction, correlating low volatility, and spikes, with price direction.

Dont forget that Robert Kiyosaki is a businessman and influencer on first place, and was never a market analyst. He has been predicting Bitcoin to cost $500k by the end of 2025 and $1.2 million by the end of 2026. He has been making predictions every quarter. His real goal is to stay visible on the media and to sell his books. Dont forget about that every single time you see him making a prediction. In fact, check out his biography on wikipedia. If he is good at making predictions, then why all of his businesses went bankrupt?

It is better for us to anticipate using an intermediary wallet, not from an exchange, to avoid problems arising from our exchange account. In addition, we will also be safe in using the funds in the wallet because they are not stored on the exchange. Whenever we want to gamble, we always use an intermediary wallet which we can freely use for many casinos. And our exchange account will also be safe and will not be suspected of being used for gambling or other things because the exchange team is very alert to transactions that they think are suspicious or can violate the exchange rules.

unfortunately when there is money involved, even family members have issues, of course...two people who weren't even so close friends it's a serious issue....

in general, in these situations it is always better to clarify everything regarding the bet/money
in the past I made "funny" bets with some friends who turned out to be successful... but no discussions, it's not good wasting time on certain things, in many cases a friend is worth much more than the amount won.

Twitter as a platform was losing users even before Elon, however once Elon took over Twitter they have lost way more users, however while this may sound like a bad thing, and in a way it is, stockholders at the end only care about the profitability of the company and not about the number of active users.

And in that regard I am not so sure if Elon is doing so badly as he has reduced the expenses of the company as many people got fired as well, so it is possible his administration has not been as bad as we think it has been.

I'm not being too greedy, but I don't even have any take-profit plans yet, but I will definitely sell off my holdings if I have any when I see it hit a new ATH, even if it takes just one bull run to do that. But that won't stop me from refilling my bag after I have taken a profit; I will wait for the right time to enter the market again.

It is no longer news or a thing to be really surprised about that different countries are now making moves which points to them adopting bitcoin..

It is in the news that Argentina, a Latin American country, has embraced bitcoin with the launch of the first bitcoin futures contract in the country.

I don't think that there is any connection with bull run for goods bounties. Yes it is true that in bull season the number of new projects will be increase and here you will find more bounties but you have to understand that As time goes on, this bounty sector will get worse, because if you see how many scam projects there were in 2018-19 and how much has increased now, then you will understand. That does not mean that good projects do not come out, good projects definitely come out, but since the number of people in the bounty sector is very high, in this case, it is seen that limitation is coming in good projects or what ever you say bounties

I would not say that the Bangladesh team's performance was very good today. But I don't think that Bangladesh will win this match after giving more than 150 targets to Afghanistan. Bangladesh won only on the performance of Shakib, Hridoy, and Shamim.

A target of 155 runs is big enough on such a pitch. And Bangladesh lost the first three batsmen of their top order for just 39 runs. They also lost the wicket of Shakib while collecting 64 runs. After that responsible batting by the duo of Towhid Hridoy and Shamim paved the way for Bangladesh to win. Hridoy remained unbeaten on 47 runs and Shamim played an innings of 33 runs.

Satoshi created bitcoin with the aim of making it a peer-to-peer currency that cannot be controlled by the government, he did not mention that bitcoin would become the solution to all problems in the world. But ironically, so many people who aren't its father are propagating it as a god who came to save our world from trouble.

To me, bitcoin is just money, a tool to help me earn money so that I can have a better life, other than that, it is nothing else in this world. When I say this, it will probably make many people unhappy, but other than using it for profit, I don't see any additional benefit to my life. We have more important things to care about, not just bitcoin.

You understand the risk, that's all that matters OP, and also you got in at the right time, I doubt Bitcoin will ever see 17,000$ again, I believe that is a case closed for this bear market, if you have a good job I will advice you to keep accumulating, what I've learned in crypto space when it comes to accumulation is to always have some money set aside for opportunities, we are not out of the bear market yet, if BItcoin head down to let's say 20k how are you going to take the advantage again? So always have some USDC in your wallet for possible future opportunities.

You are in good hands since you understand the risks, it feels great seeing a newbie taking this risk as an opportunity, if you can hold firmly you will be happy with your decision in a few years from now.

The meaning of greed varies from merchant to merchant. I agree with your opinion that when the target has been reached, traders should immediately take profit rather than expecting a bigger profit. It was greed, of course because they had set a target. So obviously they have to be very consistent with their strategy and have to exit when the targets are met.

But when it comes to holders then I don't think they deserve to be called greedy especially long term holders. They need not give up on the plan if they still see a greater potential for more returns in the long term.
