141  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Are you still holding on: March 28, 2024, 10:47:14 PM
I am still holding and my Bitcoins are kept on a HW but I will change it soon once things in real life have gotten less busy. Currently, I am using a lot from the list and they're good. Samourai, Blockstream green, electrum and I've used sometime ago Bluewallet. And while I am keeping and holding, I've got my target price and everyone has got their target prices as well. We have to hold but this is a good reminder when someone isn't yet transferring his Bitcoins from custodial wallets like in the exchanges because when they want to send or sell those bitcoins, the exchange could just take a maintenance and all plans of theirs will become delayed. That's one reason why you shouldn't keep it there and at the same time it's not recommended at all and we're all being taught and reminded to use wallets that we're holding our private keys.
142  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Newbies take bitcoin as long term Choice to get the best out of bitcoin on: March 28, 2024, 09:41:32 PM
They should remove that thinking because reaching to that point will also depend on what kind of effort they do and also the amount of capital they start with. What I am disappointed with most of the newbies is that they always complain about being too late in buying BTC and that's why they choose memecoins and other altcoins instead. That's the disadvantage they always point out but if they're serious with it, they will buy it without any complain and I agree that it should be for the long term. They won't feel the essence of holding Bitcoin in the short term when they have bought it also at the peak. But if they will plan out their purchases and DCA, they'd see the huge difference of it that they'd be happy that it is their choice instead of altcoins.
143  Economy / Speculation / Re: My instincts on the value of bitcoin from now to halving on: March 28, 2024, 12:32:10 PM
I don't mean to predict the market cap price but my conscience whispers to me that the current rise up again or bitcoin would be the last rise before halving.
As at the time of making this thread,  the price was $70K + which we're aware that it formally broke its ATH even when itsy not yet at the bull run before it depreciated again but my instincts is whispering me that this current up rise again would be the last rise before halving.

Do you have some psychological intake or some personal opinion in related to my emotion?
It doesn't really matter if it's going to be the last up before the halving. The market has been moving from time to time and this halving has got a deadline for this upcoming month of April. So what's next? That's the question probably on your mind and halving isn't the last day of Bitcoin and it will continue to go on no matter what happens. What matters is the long term effect of the halving and not before it happens. That's why there is no need to stress yourself out if you're also waiting for the halving, so take your time and relax and let Bitcoin do itself and move on its own course.
144  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What's your next step if you experience a Great BEAR MARKET ? on: March 27, 2024, 11:02:26 PM
Currently Bitcoin is expected to have a bull run and halving in coming time as we all know it.

Now if you were to make an investment of $100 as a beginner regardless of your country and as it stands Bitcoin is experiencing a bear market (an example) after you made 5% capital.

Initially you want to hold for a very long time but as a result of the bear market you loose your capital and half your investment yet the market is showing no sign for you to recover.
What's your next step as a first timer in Bitcoin /Altcoin trading?
I'd listen to the experience ones and you know what typically they're saying about such bear markets? It is not there to stay forever and the market will eventually get up and recover and that's why all you have to do is calm your heart and mind and it will recover soon. But if the altcoins you're holding aren't that important in the market, they're unlikely to recover so it varies with what you hold. There is no doubt and question with Bitcoin and that's why we always keep moving forward and takes the moment to accumulate more when we're in a bear market. Luckily, I've been through with it and that taught me lessons that I am bringing with me and that's why I am not to worried at all even if we get a sudden correction or we go straight to a bear this time.

Any news?
Absolutely nothing. Not a single response from the site handlers/owners.
I was informed in the FBC thread that TheQuin (correspondent) has not replied for nearly 2 months
I've seen that their signature campaign has also ended because he didn't topped up the wallet and didn't responded. Maybe there's something going on with him personally and that's outside of the casino. But with concerns like this, this should have been addressed long time ago, and with his absence, there should be someone to take over his duty to resolve all of these concerns of their customers when they've taken a lot of time to wait for any response.
146  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Staking Platforms - Best APY on: March 27, 2024, 07:51:14 PM
try those wallets that have integrated staking feature which they still give you your seeds but don't do it inside the exchanges just as what I've tried. The DeFis or dexes have this feature and will give you tremendous APY, I suggest to avoid them knowing how they've always been targeted by attackers.
There is no wallet that does this unless the cryptocurrency supports POS, meaning you will not find a wallet that gives you staking reward for bitcoin because there is no way to do that except by giving your currencies to a third party.
I think that most platforms are misleading when they've got Bitcoin that someone can "stake" on it. The term is wrong as you've said, Bitcoin isn't a POS and it can't be staked but they should use like interest accounts. But you're right, I haven't seen a wallet that allows that or probably I did but it's from centralized platforms that will give you like 2%-5% APY although that sounds plausible for that rate but knowing that you won't hold your keys, it's a no.

Staking POS is considered safe, but its return is low. Some people mortgage their accounts in liquidity pools to obtain more profits, but these pools are centralized.
And they're prone to attacks or hacking.
147  Economy / Economics / Re: Off Economic phenomenon. on: March 27, 2024, 06:21:53 PM
Currently, most of the countries are into high inflation and the first world countries are dealing with recession. That's why the decrease in value of your fiat is there if your country is dependent on the value of USD or importing a lot. There's no way to stop inflation but it can be lessened and decreased yearly depending on many factors like as I've said, if your country has always been importing, it's hard to deal with it. But those countries that have food security and not reliant to the oil of other countries, then that means that they're making their own supply and economies for which they can't be affected by the rising factors of importation.
148  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Minimum deposit on: March 27, 2024, 07:18:41 AM
I have experienced this but not with remitano but with various instant exchanges. They have a dynamic minimum deposit and that's why as OP said, it's very important to check on the minimum deposit because it changes from time to time especially when the price of Bitcoin decreases.  That is why when you've sent an amount and the minimum deposit has changed and you're short with that, you have to deposit again to that given address for it to proceed the transaction. It is truly hassle but they should put some big banner that will make their users aware of these real time changes.
149  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [SCAM] heylink.me complicit in crypto drainer scam on: March 26, 2024, 11:47:41 PM
LOL, that #2 requirement certainly wants them to get paid for "faster" transaction. You know that it's kind of a privilege from these platforms and they will certainly encourage people to get faster response from them. But as for them hosting a crypto drainer scammer, they've mentioned it on #3 that they can get investigated but how long does an investigation process? I'd agree that when it comes to these services, they should filter them all. But what can we hope for the likes of these services if Google itself is also swarmed by these crypto drainers, phishing scammers and we have to report them individually just for them to remove them from their search engine.
The least we can expect is that if someone is an administrator to an open ended service they'd take some measures to at least respond to reports.
In this instance they were alerted and obviously acknowledged the issue as it's obvious that they have responded.
This is true, I think that if they've received reports already, they have to take action. But with this, this kind of not alarming to them but soon if there will be lots of reports then I guess that's just the time they'd react.

Expectations of them were set extremely low. In fact for how many people use such services, I have to admit that it's the first time I hear of this particular one. So it might not be that surprising if it's in affiliation with the scamers themselves.
It's also possible but I don't want to assume that they've got connection to them because if they're a service and they're just accepting clients or tenants that will use them, they're just for the money and not for the welfare of the people.
150  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Shohei Ohtani Gambling Saga on: March 26, 2024, 10:22:26 PM
I was just curious about if anyone of you guys have been following this Shohei Ohtani gambling saga/controversy going on right now?  This is a HUGE deal in the world of sports, and of course specifically in Major League Baseball.  If you aren't familiar with who Shohei Ohtani is, he's a Japanese born MEGA star in major league baseball.  He's both a pitcher and someone who hits, which in the world of baseball is VERY rare.  No since the legendary Babe Ruth have we've seen such a player who's so great at doing both.  He's become the face of baseball which is what makes all of this all the more crazy.

I wanted to get everyone's thoughts.  
I haven't followed it until I saw the news that he's released a statement telling that he's in no way addicted to gambling. Yeah, it was his interpreter that's stealing his money but we all know how these cover ups happen when the main athlete or character has been accused or proven to do something that's against to the will of their fans. Maybe, it was a real thing that he's into gambling and having this much money secured for 10 years, you'd surely just retire after your contract and can do that much with this kind of money. This scandal is big because of the contract that he's got and it's on a different level from the celebrities being reported having sums of debts in Vegas. I hope that he won't be drowning himself into fame and money and will be wise on how he's going to retain his popularity as with simple or one mistake, his career might drop dead.

For now I think there is nothing you can actually do than to just wait because you were the one who made the silly mistake so he wil have to wait patiently but one thing is certain and that's a response in due time. Personally I have read and even seen most of this cases and alot of them were resolved and I think yours too can but still depends on the casino and how fast they can answer the problem. Atleast this would serve as a serious lesson for you to take correction from and be more extra careful to avoid such stupid mistakes .
Yeah, can't do that much with his case but to wait and while waiting for that update. It seems that we've got a lot of contest.

BCGAME is on fire!
Sure they are! and those that have requested for a BTC price prediction, there you go. Your request guys have been granted by BCGAME.  Smiley

153  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin halving, how low the price can be? on: March 26, 2024, 05:56:25 PM
Next month will be Bitcoin halving, how far can the price go down?
No one has the right answer on this one and we can always say that it can range from $10k-$20k.

or how high can the price go up?
As for this range, it can be from $100k-$500k. That's why no one really has the right answer for this one and with Bitcoin's volatility, any price can be of possibility and only time can tell on what price it is going to be soon. While you've asked this question, are you prepared for any of those possible high prices soon and you've got some holdings already? if still none, start doing DCA.

I would like to know how people typically manage to balance their offline and online work, and how I can adjust to this.
Time management but first, welcome back. Always do your priorities first so that you can have a lot of extra time once you're done with them. Don't get distracted with what you see on social media and so you can have your time into investing with the likes of Bitcoin or any cryptocurrencies that you prefer. It's not really that hard to monitor Bitcoin's price or the entire market because you can always check them through your smartphone, anytime and wherever you are. Most of us do check the prices at most times but only do it when you're free and don't include it with your office time or whenever you're in duty inside or outside your work premises.
156  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Staking Platforms - Best APY on: March 25, 2024, 10:44:16 PM
I have tried this with centralized exchanges but I don't find it appealing. I just did it for the essence of how it goes and it's not really giving me the thought and sense of security because I don't hold the keys although you see some little gains, I'd say that it's not worth it. It's best to just hold it on your wallet if they're not stable coins. But if you've got a lot of spare with your portfolio and you truly want to stake them, try those wallets that have integrated staking feature which they still give you your seeds but don't do it inside the exchanges just as what I've tried. The DeFis or dexes have this feature and will give you tremendous APY, I suggest to avoid them knowing how they've always been targeted by attackers.

I'm making this post to get in contact with bc.game staff.

I have tried to contact support by email and live chat but its clear they have been instructed to not forward issues regarding deposits.

I intended to deposit 1 ETH to my bc.game deposit address. When issueing the withdrawal from Binance I mistakenly did it from the wrong page. I was on the BTC withdrawal page instead of ETH. As a result it send Bianance wrapped BTC to the bc.game ETH deposit address.

Please help!
That sucks, you should have checked first what you're sending from here and there. But, I've seen this case in some casinos and exchanges when a user has deposited a wrong crypto to another address. Some were able to fully recover it but it comes with a fee from that platform itself. I have no idea if this has happened in the past with bc.game but I guess it did. Since you've already contacted them through email, how long and since when did you sent them that email and query? It takes time so, please be patient and wait until one of their reps reply to you and you've already posted here, for sure a rep will see your post but you have to add additional info like your txid or userid for them to check it.
158  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Traders, the Halving is Coming, Let's Talk Strategy (and Events) on: March 25, 2024, 08:16:37 PM
I'm curious – for those of us who've been around the block a few times, what are your most memorable halving experiences? Any wild rides or surprise outcomes that stick with you? Let's swap stories and maybe gain some insights into this round.
Of course the last one but this time, we don't even got through the halving yet and the price of Bitcoin has been moving like it's on an unstoppable coarse. This is actually a wild ride that we're seeing but you know that it's also quite painful to see it move up to $73k and then decreases a lot for some correction to $60k. At this rate, that's how the expectation and the plan is going on according to what we're seeing right now. Price has moved a lot from that correction and the resiliency of Bitcoin has been consistent and seen at this time. This is going to be my third time of halving and I guess from the last two that I've got, I've got lessons that I've extracted from those moments.
159  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How safe is saving screenshots of useful information and BTC transactions? on: March 24, 2024, 06:51:45 PM
* My question is, how safe is it to keep screenshots of Bitcoin/crypto transactions and useful information, on ones device?
I've done that in the past and I've read from different people that it's not safe at all if that's going to include his seeds or private keys. You're right about what if his device falls into the wrong hands and new it that he's doing something like this.

* How do I go about letting my friend know about such a habit of taking and keeping screenshots on his device that I have observed and warn him about it, without looking like I sense bad days coming?
He's going to regret that but upon giving him some reminders, you've done your part already. You have to do what you have to do and if he doesn't listen to you, you have no obligations to him about that because you've already told him that it happened to some people that they're not expecting it to happen. You're not thinking him to any ill intentions but just concerned about what he does.

Note: There may even be some malware (my speculation here) capable of determining the virtual keyboard being used, the screen/window size, and therefore perhaps being able to map mouse-click position to specific keys.
Yeah exactly and this is also used in mobiles as keyboard taps could be mapped .
I think there should be   some virtual keyboard that's  could be rearranged eveytime you feel like rearranging  the keys to confuse maps I think.....
Generally,  mallware sucks Tongue
That's certainly possible, these hackers are wise and they have for sure concluded that and one example is what you've said about the touchscreens/touchpads through mobile or smartphones. And in that sense, it can be possibly apply to the PC users and will just have to detect those mouse clicks and if the user is detected using a virtual keyboard. You'll never know if they have upgraded and became more dangerous this time but truly they sucks and that's why the protection starts from us and how we use our devices and the internet.
