321  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bothered about every DIP? It's just a mental check. on: March 20, 2024, 07:00:06 PM
i was bothered for awhile. its not he first time i am wrong with my analysis as i thought the dip would just be on 65k actually so I was just feeling very positive that it would bounce quickly so I didn't sell. it's too late for me to sell so I was just holding them since i was expecting more profit after halving.

as of the time of writing its already back tp $65k. this could be the bounce I'm looking for and my altcoins are back to green again.
322  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Selling NFTs...Where to start? on: March 20, 2024, 05:47:13 PM
Let's say I've created some NFTs and I want to sell them on any of the NFT marketplaces available. How do I know which marketplace is the most popular? And how do I attract sales? Also, which Blockchain has the highest NFT trading volume? If I launch my own NFTs (digital art) it would be on either Polygon or Solana chains.

Any suggestions and/or recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Smiley

Opensea is the oldest NFT marketplace. Prefer polygon network as the listing fees is zero. So you do not need to make any upfront payment. If you are serious about selling NFTs, you need to invest in marketing heavily. Otherwise your NFTs will remain unsold like millions of other NFTs in the market.

Honestly, NFT is a dead thing. If you want to experiment, go ahead. But don't have high hope.

that's how I see it as well. there are not many people interested in buying some overpriced JPG but if he has some special art he created himself i think one can sell it. it just needs to be very special.

i wanted to create something like this for a long time but i would prefer to create NFTs when the value of ETH goes way higher that i can only pay a few gwei.
how do you market an NFT if you are to sell?

The cost of things has gone up so much so that it's glaring. Imagine paying 5-12$ for an average meal you could get before for 3$. The jump cost is extremely high. Cooking a meal at home can cost you the same amount you would spend on eating in a restaurant. Funny enough people still afford all these things without complaining. My anger is that we make money to spend it all into our normal life expenses. It's difficult now to save or invest unless you part of the rich people in society. An average man has to just eat, pay bills, and survive.

to get out of there, level up your skills, look for a side job, save 80% of your salary to invest and reduce useless expenses, avoid debt because if we just work and the money just runs out then we will work forever

saving 80% is too hard to do for someone who has a family to feed. but it would help if they are just saving for now to materialize a small business that sure will work. i have seen people who are growing chickens in their backyard and selling the eggs in the neighborhood already. it's quite effective for the couple I knew. it's a business that will also feed them which is very much a saver.

investing would be good if they have the knowledge like in crypto but regular people these days find it hard to learn new skills.  too much entertainment in their blood watching tiktok.

people have money, their wants are bought, not just their needs. if they prioritized their wants, it's those luxurious cars they display in their garage.

people wanna show off their success with the car they own. but just like frank said, we don't know how much debt they have. there wouldn't be rest for those who are just showing off but the ones who can sleep well without worries are the ones who doesn't have debts and are just using the most basic Toyota car.

^  Even tho the 'devs' sold some tokens from what was supposed to be for community endeavors and onboarding, I think PEPE will continue to grow and get more clout.  The 'Elon Meta' is also still in play so GROK will def ne higher than whereit is now...  DOGE and with it SHIB and FLOKI will trend up too in a full on bull market.  Just wait for Elon Musk to start tweeting about it.  Grin  Memecoins in Solana are in play too giving 10x's like it was nothing...  So yeah, all the coins you mentioned.  Lolol.

Here's the thing about memecoins...  They're somewhat metrics for where the next rotation is.  So if there's a lot of memecoin action in some chain starting, it's prolly because it's the 'hot' chain.  And right now it's Solana.

yep it's time for the memecoins in SOL and this is probably because SOL is also soaring high. we could expect other memecoins from other L1 projects once their token is also trending up.

it will be surprising to see unknown memecoins emerge to the top 50 when memecoins on TRON comes out. i haven't really seen one on TRON. but there's more on ERC.

Hmmm! Meaning everyone's activities here is under watch right? That's interesting and would even make the system more transparent and reliable since every users activities can be seen by all.

But do we have some police and probably FBI here? Lol and the judiciary as well to bring perpetrators of illegal and untrusted activities to book?
It does not mean your activity here is under watch per se, but anything you do on the internet is somewhat public and if you give away too many details, it can be used by the relevant authorities to identify you. Mind you that the forum does not moderate scam and the system is not built to protect you, you have to protect yourself, so learn how to do that.

Having said that, as for if the FBI is here, who knows, anybody can register an account here and they do not have to make their identity public when doing so. Even if the FBI or police is here, they are not here to protect you, they can lurk around if they are trying to uncover a big scam or something related to a Bitcoin mixer.

if they are tracking illicit BTC transactions and they land here looking for the owner of the BTC address in the forum, they will be watching and i think they are already here watching. Ulbrich was tracked because of his posts here in the forum.  identifying users by their real names will still be difficult unless the user did something big and crazy crime. he will not get away with it.

i remember Theymos asked KYC to everyone as his April Fools prank, there were actually users sending their documents lol i bet if he do it again, there would be users going to send IDs still.
327  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are the Altcoins Going to Dip in Short Term? on: March 19, 2024, 05:41:15 PM
its scary to hold altcoins when the dip starts, altcoins are always going to dump more than BTC, you can see your funds draining as it happens that is why a lot are also starting to sell. i think this is just a short pullback. give it a few days you'll see it will rally again to 70k.

but if you are skeptical about this dip and you think it will go down to 40k as some technical analysis are saying, maybe convert your holdings to stablecoin for now. market still is unsure whether it will be before the halving.
328  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: web3 will Revolutionize Online Shopping and rewards on: March 19, 2024, 04:37:05 PM

The using of bitcoin to pay for things you buy online and pay for services online was one of the main reasons of Satoshi Nakamoto of creating bitcoin but that aspect of using bitcoin has been forgotten and only the investment part does exist. But really if bitcoin is using to pay food items, clothes and other things online then fiat currencies will behave well and couple with the bitcoin investment then the world will be nice planet to enjoy life. It is only few countries accepting bitcoin for only shopping and even those countries, it is only few persons that shopping with it and not everyone.

And I think that is the last dream for all cryptocurrency enthusiast. In my location I have not seen anyone does that which they are accepting bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies for payment method. But time is coming that it will happen but not coming soon.

and not the memecoin like GOMDori.

there have been several online shops accepting cryptocurrencies but none so far that has become adopted mainstream. it's still the regular fiat that internet users are using to purchase things. i think because of the transaction fee as well, will stop even the crypto user from making transactions.

what is happening is that we are using a mobile app to convert BTC to fiat and this app can be used to purchase in online shops.
329  Economy / Economics / Re: Big instutions and Banks have invested too much in Europe on: March 19, 2024, 04:22:05 PM

it's not up to Putin to stop the war. one of the parties has to surrender for the war to be over or simply just peace talk and accept the condition of Putin since he has the leverage to give the condition. Ukraine also will not accept the condition of Putin since it's going to appear NATO to be weak for they are the ones backing the country. there's the reason for war to continue.

blackrock does have a plan to rebuild Ukraine which they bid an enormous amount of money but if Putin controls the country that money won't be going to Ukraine.

Your opinion is contradicting itself. You mention that it’s not up to Putin to stop the war yet the condition for stopping the war is accept the condition given by Putin itself which means if Putin doesn’t demand to Ukraine then this war is already over because it’s still up to Putin(Russia) decision on when they will stop the war because they are the only one invading Ukraine while the other country is just on defensive position.

This war is all about Putin(Russia) goal, which will not happened if they just agree to a proper settlement between 2 party.

both are attacking each other, Moscow was even hit. they are at war.
we are talking about after the war started. after the war started, it's not up to Putin anymore. this is not stopping anymore until Ukraine has no weapons as they call it demilitarization.  when the war hasn't started yet they can negotiate and stop the war. all Putin asked for was No NATO membership.

but now that institutions are involve, this is just about controlling the debts. that's why the war will continue and will even escalate more.

The Russian invasion literally has incalculable effects on the European stability and governmental policies.

Everyone wants the Russo-Ukrainian War to end, but it is unusually not easy to maintain peace and order and it is to be achieved is rather not clear. Easy solutions rest on unrealistic assumptions and impossible efforts.
 The case for reaching a compromise with Putin rests on the assumption that he wants and needs peace and that he isn’t really committed to destroying Ukraine and Ukrainians.

https://thehill.com/opinion/international/3943927-impossible-and-possible-solutions-to-the-russo-ukrainian-war/

i don't think Putin is committed to wiping out Ukraine, if he is it will be like Gaza. Kyiv is closer to Russia but the Russians left it out. they instead head to the Blacksea area leaving Kyiv alone.

what was being talked about in different channels was that NATO's plan was just to drain Russia's resources as the war prolong. but it wasn't that easy since Russia is backed by China and Russia has gas to sell.

Was Putin ready for negotiations in the first days of the war? That is, in the first days of the attack on Ukraine? Then why was it necessary to attack? It is obvious here that these were not negotiations, but an ultimatum to surrender the interests of Ukraine, and such ultimatums have been put forward by Putin to this day. But now he still wants the conquered territories of Ukraine to remain with Russia.

the West and Russia are both meddling in Ukraine.
331  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Stop paying money to learn trading when you can learn it yourself on: March 18, 2024, 07:07:17 PM

there are many tutorials online and even on youtube where a person who wants to be a self-taught trader can learn well without having to pay.
when a person is left with few options to make money, he will focus on learning what he wants to learn and will read what is necessary. what I can suggest is just do it first on the spot market. this is very easy to do and even today many people prefer to do it on spot market only.

futures can be exhausting and will liquidate your funds easy. the way to make it in the futures market is to first profit in the spot market.
332  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why you need to have spare USDT in this bullrun. on: March 18, 2024, 06:19:52 PM

don't get too comfortable in being an early investor in a new project such as memecoin. by the time you are used to not expecting a rug pull and you invest so big because you think this is another profitable investment, you might be wrecked in the ass.

it's the times like this correction, that spare USDT will be useful before the coins are cheaper. you can either choose the popular memecoin or the altcoin that you have been wishing to have grabbed a bag. i did earn a few coins so I bought some KASPA.

Decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePINs) are blockchain protocols that build, maintain, and operate physical hardware infrastructure in an open and decentralized manner.

i have no idea what DePIN means until I search about it. it sounds very new to me, but when I read about physical infrastructure like a hardware infrastructure, it already means it's not decentralized. 

i would pick AI since it's already driving this market into the bull run. we see AI tokens rallying for weeks so that's one positive effect of AI while Gaming is not the same as it was when AXie kids were making millions.

For peace to reign both parties need to put up an argument or what they want and not just that they should also be ready to accept each others opinions and be willing to be live by some point made by the other country even if it is against what they believe in.

Peace is not the absence of grievance or faults but the ability to see through them and accept one another.

I think peace is still very possible but the support game should be dropped and rather in the interest of the world we all try to put peace between both countries.

when the soviet union gave up their territories, they sought peace also. ukraine was part of soviet union at that time. well, it's just an old story really as far as i know the Berlin wall is their border. Putin was willing to negotiate in the first days of this war. this time, however, i think the conditions may change.  

the world back then was that the Soviet Union was a big Bloc and then now there is Europe but there is one that is rising such as BRICS. so things will change in the future. it may not be in our lifetime but BRICS will also be gone in a few hundred years. nothing lasts forever they say.
335  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Where is The Best Place to Buy Ethereum? With Cheap Tx Fee. on: March 18, 2024, 05:15:33 PM


If your main intention on buying ETH is just for investment purposes then just purchased it on different Blockchain that is pegged on Ethereum ERC20. This way you can invest on Ethereum price and at the same time you can hold it on a non custodial wallet.

I’m doing this on BSC whenever I want to invest on Ethereum price while I don’t plan to use it on its own blockchain since the fee in there is terribly high. This is the only way to invest on ETH with cheap TX price. Pegged tokens these days already have a huge liquidity to backed the token pegged.

that's one way to do it. although this is the real ETH. its BEP20. you still will need to spend a high fee in trading it to real ETH.
you are aware of the high transaction fee in withdrawing or sending out and if spending $7 for a transaction fee is going to be something that you would see as a big loss, just don't take your ETH out of the exchange. just leave it there and sell when the price is right. just pick a popular exchange such as binance.

with such fees, we know BTC is a better choice.
336  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Solana memecoin is trending on twitter.. on: March 18, 2024, 04:26:48 PM
these new SOL memecoins are not quite as popular as Bonk. i would stick my nose on the BONK and not on these few mentioned by OP.

the rise of SOL is almost unbelievable. It quickly shoots up almost to its ATH already while the rest of the altcoins still suffer its bears. I'm just too aware that is already overbought and it won't be long the price will plunge again. i would rather be waiting for its fall this time before buying some including the Bonk memecoin.

337  Economy / Economics / Re: Senators pressure SEC’s Gensler not to approve any more crypto ETFs on: March 17, 2024, 08:45:17 PM
i think that it's just drama, they pretend to reject ethereum etf, or crypto in the form of other etfs, but in the end they will still accept it, because it is money, who doesn't want money? moreover, senate members also have their own interests and as long as blackrock and other etf providers are willing to pay them a number of benefits, it will be impossible for them to change course and instead support ethereum etf. it was only a matter of time for that to happen.

it's all just an act. if they say it could be approved by the date, everybody will be buying ETH right now and the price will skyrocket before it's even approved. it's not gonna look good for the traders within the institutions.

what they could just do is Gensler rejecting them. but I'm guessing Vanguard, BlackRock and all the rest have been buying ETH as well that's why the price already touched 4k. i think the ETFs will be approved in May.

339  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which game currently have you glued to your screen. on: March 17, 2024, 05:43:16 PM
Honestly, the gaming industry is becoming bigger and better as more investors continues to pump in more money towards the sector. Recently I played some games from the $BLOCK, $DOT and $OGC gaming platform and I had a treat in a long while especially with the WARPATH game. This arouse my interest to explore more gaming project and I discovered another web3 metaverse game project called FlappyMoonbird.

I recently played their AI Birdnopoly and FlappyMoonbird demo release and it was quite thrilling. The interesting part is that players gets to play for free and earn mystery boxes and also earn $FMB tokens which is already tradable on top tier exchanges.

Which other games are you playing right now and earning free tokens?

Since I'm not good a gamer, I prefer getting into gaming tokens earlier. The strategy worked for MAVIA, PIXEL, Bigtime. Maybe I'll consider FMB if you give more details or probably provide a link to get more..like where it's trading etc..

Haha, perhaps you got lucky, I think it's best to invest in sectors you are conversant with to mitigate your risk. Knowing much about the games will give you a clue of how receptive the gaming community will be towards the token. As a gamer, I don't also invest in all the gaming project I play because not all of them are worth the money. Sometimes the fun is what I enjoy just like the WARPATH game that's making me stayed glued to my PC. As fr FMB, I haven't invested in it yet because am still observing its performance. Although it's now listed on two major Cex Bitget an Bybit but you need to DYOR well before opting to invest. Though there is positive sentiment towards it which is a good sign.

I have often said game-fi may not be dead but were hibernating. We could see a resurgence if these projects when bull finally make it huge appearance. I will look into this FMB with few on my watchlist cos it's not late buying now since a huge market correction is on the horizon before the bull circle officially kickstart.

so these all still depend on the bull run to make it.
the amount of time spent playing would be more worthwhile if they still have a good value in the bear.  in the event of a bear market, more gamers going to dump and quit playing the game.

there is nothing like Axie. it was a blockbuster until that bear market made the game undesirable. games that were launched next are all mostly cliched.
340  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Tether Seems like Sound money on: March 17, 2024, 04:47:02 PM
If the dollar is debt structured, then USDT is tied to the value of one dollar, but in reality it is tied to promises and there is not even 1% of the reserves from net deposits. USDT is very bad and you should not consider it as a long-term investment. If you want to invest in a stable currency, there are better projects than PYUSD USDC DAI.

aren't they all the same?
there were several reports about USDT being frozen so that's another issue but same with all these stablecoins, they can also be frozen. there is trust for the DAI to be decentralized though.

there is just convenience in using the stablecoins in trading that's why we are all relying on this and not BTC/Altcoin which makes sense for most of us to be using stablecoin. but if the hyperinflation scenario however is to be considered, I wouldn't put all my eggs in one basket.
