I do no think that 2021 be the year of the lightning network, we have still not solved everything and this we have to still wait for the time when we will have solutions for the same.

Plus I don't think that we do need lightning network anymore. Now a days the sites have started accepting funds even after one confirmation and it's more or so instant and thus I do believe things like that are going to happen more or so in the future.

Therefore the lightning network will become obsolete. These kind of payments and transfers are more or so very instant. At the same time I do believe that we might or might not solve the lightning network problems but we can have a more or so widespread adoption of segwit network.

We do have options for sure. We don't have to wait for the lightning network to become perfect though.
Things implemented in bitcoins ? It's perfect the way it is , we don't have to make the situation more complicated. Right now I do believe that the only problem would be how we would deal with quantum computers and the transfer fees.

Not only that they have branded marble racing literally. When someone would try and think of it, it would be their site they would go to , they did include ETH in there too which made it all better since the sending and receiving charges are far less thus it's more convenient for everyone. But the only thing is the wager is predetermined. In the future I do believe we will have many more ideas like this but this is again way better than other sports like bull fighting, cock fighting etc.


It gives more entertainment to the viewer just like the time we purchased tickets to visit zoo or any animal sanctuary, it's the same thing but a little cuter. This shows us how gambling is 99% about entertainment.
Since it's a place where loosing would just buy Mia some treats for sure. I don't know what's their house edge though.

I stumbled across an article where the gambling advertising did have some stuffed animals in their advertisements. Now the complaint was made and it was determined that usage of advertisement like this actually causes people under 18 to get engaged with such things which can cause further problems.

The steps were taken to ensure that the advertisement never appears again.

This aside we do have a bigger problem here to address.
1. Why did the company use this kind of advertising in the first way ?
2. What should we do to ensure that kids under 18 doesn't start to gamble? We cannot ask them for identity cards and then expect them to show.

If the gambling companies decide to show such problematic advertising etc it would ruin the whole reputation of the industry as a whole.

What do you guys think ??

Amount of silk ?
What kind of crazy idea is this ?
If you are indeed referring to real natural silk then I do believe that you have to understand the fact that since years we have been trying to get an alternative for silk since silk is itself not good , it doesn't only harm the nature but it's properties can very easily be replicated and used in a better way.
Plus not everywhere is silk synthesized! The price might vary more than you think.

Taken from google '
It's a cruel industry which exploits many therefore I believe if we want a good backup we should make sure that it's sustainable too.

Plus equally balanced commodities?? It would not only make a lot of variables but also create an indifferent situation. The whole point is, we need something stable. It can just be dependent on the government, which is how it is normally in many countries. The economic condition defines the way your currency fluctuates.

Market and economy is so interrelated that these crash even if they happen they will go though the same page. If market crashes, so will the economy and therefore we cannot truthfully say that market and economy is different.

Plus I don't understand what you mean by *No money left*?

Government can always print more but thing is what is the value of that money. Plus all this pandemic and coronavirus it's haunting the whole economic situation. Plus economic situation is not as simple. It's dependent on 1000 things. One of them is the market situation. There are many factors ex:- GDP, job opportunities etc. Therefore we cannot entirely blame it on the market.

If market crashes , it's more or so interrelated with both domestic and international companies too and therefore we have to analyze before we make such statement.

I heard about this one from a guy who actually wanted to see how his idea will work and posted here , I literally never knew it would become big. The hamster is happy and I do think this would not only make her more engaged with her owners but people from all over the world can count on her. The only thing I am sad about is that they are using ETH and not BTC but then again it's easier with the transfer fee and such.

Plus the hamster has been taken care of and I did looked though their site , it's not like mia is running on the wheel for a long long time. She does get rest ! Apparently the next bet is like 11hr away so it's a good thing that they are giving her a considerable amount of rest and taking care of her health.

Now see this is way better than gambling of cock fighting , on horse races ! This is indeed not harming anyone.

Few months before I saw a post here when a guy apparently have his idea about using his hamster for marble races for gambling and guess what ??

https://cointelegraph.com/news/the-future-of-gambling-hamster-powered-marble-races-come-to-ethereum/amp

Apparently the article has been published and it's all going forth.

The races are called *Mia and the Marbles*

I also found their youtube video and it's indeed very funny 🤣https://youtu.be/ZH4jqS53TXE

Well honestly for me the probability of one marble winning is low so I won't really bet on it but I think we can just do it for fun though.

Did someone here engage in such races ?
How was it ?
Did you win / loose?

It's not only funny but I won't mind loosing for the hamster lol whosoever's idea it was congratulations!!!

https://mia.bet/play

Here is their site :3

When it comes to China vs india do these people just realize that they are making wrong mistakes not just it would cost them years in jail but also have fights ivey them in nations.
Scams are really common thank you for sharing your news. I do think that the most simple minded people do get caught up in things like these but now they have the guy I do hope something can be done to return the money of those poor people.


There is no such thing like easy loans!!!
You need to trust banks more in this case.


Banks ?? Collateral?? Even without all this you would have to wait lonnnngggg.... I have to wait almost a year to get my student loan through in the end taking normal loan from other people are the only options. Banks don't help man !!

Using the same people is not something incomprehensible, it's the music industry we are talking about, they can be actually in the race for years. I do not think that Ukraine will have very good songs recently I was able to hear some of the local performances but over the years I must say that they quality have decreased, keeping aside the factor of the voice I do believe that the new songs have lost most meaning.
This would be really interesting to see progress here. I do think I will get on France if I had to.
Same thing goes for many small nations so we can't bet on anything. The world is not fair anymore. These things have been becoming common since years and now corruption is everywhere..

Most of the currencies in the real world they aren't backed by anything but the Government itself. Now what does it do ?

For example there is a currency : *x*backed by gold
So now anyone in the possession of this currency can actually ask the government for gold equivalent to x !! Now this might be really weird for the country and might even have times of inflation and recession. The whole currency itself won't be stable .

Now backing a currency up by the government itself means it's dependent on the economic situation of the country itself and we all know that the economic situation is more or so, stable indeed unless and until a major problem arrises.

So to make dollar strong one would have to work on the economic situation of the country itself.

Not only that for me I did lose a considerable amount in 2020 and then decided to implement another strategy:

If I see that am loosing a lot , I just call it a day.

I believe most of the times we do need luck when it comes to Gambling and therefore if at any moment I see that I did loose 50% of my money and had no profit or whatsoever.

I do : STOP

It is indeed always a hard thing to do and sometimes you just think maybe the next bet would bring you good amount. First you bet for 1$ then 5$ then 10$ but indeed we need to learn in 2021 how to stop when it's bad for us.

Addiction is always a risk that we all take here.

Also we can try and use the new system that many sites have now where you can try and place a bet with 0$. This way you can very well get some experience without having to spend more.

Yes that is indeed a date to celebrate. We live in a world where poor is gonna stay poor forever because the capitalism and the government oppression bus indeed something that everyone knows about but doesn't work to change the it. People have tried over the years but when it comes to bitcoins I consider it to be the strongest statement ever given by a common man.

For me I do believe with Bitcoins we actually learned that we don't have to always rely on the centralized bodies, we don't have to follow the corrupt society, we don't have to actually sit and just do nothing, with bitcoins we have seen a lot of revolutions , the case of venezuela will forever be a strong statement.

I do believe with bitcoins we as a person have a hold of our own money, which cannot be said even for a safe bank account or a property.

Plus in 2021 we did see an incredible streak. We did hit an ATH and there are many investors pouring in.

This picture I took from google, now let us examine what's written on it.

**This note is legal tender



**I promise to pay the bearer a sum of one hundred rupee

Now look I can put forth a lot of currencies issued by the government, the points will stay the same.

** These are the ones which are backed by the government
** People won't trust other currencies which are randomly created by other currencies
** Even crypto took years to get recognized !!
** USD , the value will itself depend on the government itself the future depends on how the government will handle the economic situation.

Ideas speaks a lot if I may, do not worry about how you can help me, it is Indeed a great honor to see that people are willing to help in any way they can and kind words are always a blessing.

I do hope in the future you decide to maybe pickup a stray, take in a kitten or a puppy , just teach them to eat what you make at home. It would indeed be wonderful. 💗

I am living in Europe but originally from India thus it's funny for many people that my dog actually eats whatever we eat. She ofc gets dog food too but she is wonderful in that matter.

Happy New year 🎊

Now considering the fact that the BTC , it did an amazing job in the year 2020 and have us all a new year gift in 2021 I do believe that it is actually an investment to be paid in BTC.

The guy didn't only increased the value of his salary but he did also allow authorities to publish the same information online which does mean that he did help the BTC community too when it comes to the terms of advertising this is all we have. The price ofcourse speaks for itself but having people with a fan following believe in it does wonders for the audience.

The teammates might to might not but we all do know that all of them are now regretting that they didn't take the same steps.

I do hope he makes a wise choice and decides to either hold or encash timely so that he does not make a mockery out of bitcoins and himself too. It is now in his possession, his salary and the opportunity to do what he wants with bitcoins therefore I hope it goes good.

It is rather good to have such people share their thoughts publicly since we know most of them decides to keep the whole audience in the dark , many investors, players , business personalities are hidden thus it is rare to see such dedication.

See trust it : Yeah

As for me I have been playing a little bit but I clearly don't like the crash game there. Something happened to me continually felt like it was monitored. I made profit and was about to close the game 🎯 the moment it went good the crash started happening at 1× and I lost profit+ my money too.

But I do understand that's luck and therefore I don't put much thought into it.

Rest you don't get free spins until and unless you do deposit a certain amount of money there and sometimes the top earners or people who invest a lot in it, they get bonus points and you can even earn though referral code there so it's like possibility of you earning there but be careful in the games where you might win a lot you tend to loose faster than ever.

Rest it's legit.

I highly anticipated a crash in the market around holidays which should have opened up some space for people like me to buy some coins and wait. But then again it's BTC , never fails to astound us. The market didn't just maintain the price but at the same time is doing really well. Thus I do believe that bitcoins right now can either:
1. Crash around the first week of January
2. Stay stable and show all ups and downs , whilst crashing after a considerable amount of time.
Now as we already know the pandemic is far from going. Vaccination is there and there are countries where people are already getting it, so the BTC market is the only one that I know of which have actually held the ground stable for the investors so I wish it could stay that way for a longer period of time at least till pandemic ends.



- that's the whole point. We can be all wrong and the maker can crash any second or even choose to climb. There is no one literally who knows about this. ))

Hello

First of all I would like to thank you for investing time and efforts to make BTC more acceptable in the institutions as a form of investment. Now let's talk about your questions.

1. There are many exchange , literally a lot of them and you can easily find a list of trusted ones on google or anywhere. But I do think that you have to search according to your country. See which local exchange people are using. Now why would one wanna do that ?
This makes your payment and trading processes easier, you don't have to pay charges ex- currency exchange etc..etc..

2. If you are talking about buying BTC please remember that you are buying them as a company which means you will invest a considerable amount. You have to invest in further security ex:- Hardware wallets etc. After buying you do have to send your BTC there.

Mind if you state where you are from ? What is the local currency ?
This way more people can reach out to you.

You can also do p2p trading. There are quite a few people with a considerable amount of money saved in BTC. You can even go to localbtc and see which of them are giving good value that you want. But I think you should directly download a wallet offline. Buy , then just send them to a hardware wallet. Keep them safe!!!

Involving more people on the way will just be hectic and also increase your fee.

Thank you so much 🥰❤️
Congratulations everyone
Have a nice day

Yes thank you so much , I have been thinking of doing this but unfortunately right now am working two jobs and also have 3 more years of college left. Therefore I literally have no free time. I have thought about doing this when I start earning because even though I might get some funds it's really expensive so I would have to start on my own and use my own money for the starting therefore I only invested like 500-700$ got some cages, food , doors , clothes , harness , toys etc... and just made our rented house a little zoo. Lol my friends call it that.
At the same time when am rescuing someone going around running I cannot always remember to make videos of them suffering and all that , I just take pictures, so I might try and compile it all in a video and see if am able to raise some funds for the shelter. As for me I have been working for duelbits Campaign and it literally helped me a lot. Getting 50$ every week actually helped me fund for the new cages, litter, food etc. I am really thankful for the forum and the campaign for this🙏 and people like you who encourage me for doing better.


Yes I do hope more people like you exist 🙏 the society is right now at such dark age and the only thing we can make this right is by being kind to animals, people, by helping others and being the best version of ourselves.

Rescuing an animal is extremely fulfilling, they literally make our life happier and love us more than anything. 💖💖



This girl destroys toys within 5 minutes of them coming no matter how expensive, how strong they are , she even tries to eat stones , plastic !!! Even glass , she is crazy !!
