441  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: interest in the cryptocurrency on: September 27, 2023, 12:12:24 PM
Before deciding to invest in crypto, someone must do research first to avoid making a mistake when starting.
But most people who invest in crypto started because they saw advertisements on social media or because they were invited by their friends to buy certain coins.
Instead of researching potential coins, they follow their friend's invitation to buy them, which results in them being unable to make a profit later.
This often happens because people are lured by offers that involve getting quick profits in a short time, even though investing in any field takes time.
But if they only invest in bitcoin and always buy it regularly, they can get that profit after 1-2 years.
But again, even if it is a bitcoin investment, they still have to research to find a good time to start investing in bitcoin.

444  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Credit card gambling fuels gambling addiction on: September 27, 2023, 07:40:57 AM
Credit cards fuel every kind of purchasing addiction out there. Women buy make-up products, men buy more home depot stuff, kids buy more junk food, alcoholics buy more booze, investors buy more stocks and finally gamblers buy more game chips. We can’t really do about it since credit cards a part of the financial system. The good thing is, the interest rates are so high right now, it doesn’t make any sense to borrow money unless you are very desperate. In this environment, borrowing money is a quick way to get poor or worse, bankrupt.
We can refuse to use a credit card and if the bank offers us to take a credit card, we can refuse it so that we will have problems later.
Using a credit card is fun because we can shop and don't need to use fiat money, but at the end of the month, we have to return the money we used for shopping to the credit card company.
And it will be even worse if consumers use credit cards to gamble and that is not recommended because gambling can make them forget and not be able to control the use of money from their credit cards.
We should distance ourselves from problems that may arise and not using credit cards is one way to avoid these problems.

There is no need to erase anything from what happened because there is no point.
We also can't do it and the events in the past can be a lesson for us to be more careful so that we don't experience this.
The FTX crash and the older ones like Mt.Gox teach us a lesson not to store a lot of assets on exchanges because exchanges will not always be safe from hacking.
Maybe a crash like that could tell the general public that no system is truly safe from hacking, so they must always be careful in protecting their assets and keeping them away from the prying eyes of hackers by storing them in their personal wallets.
446  Economy / Economics / Re: The Kids buying Mcdonald order via BTC on: September 26, 2023, 01:16:42 PM
Actually, it's okay if parents teach their children to learn to use bitcoin to buy something and I was impressed to see that these children can do it to buy something at McDonald's.
But it's better if this is just a one-time thing and parents can teach their children more about investing in bitcoins rather than spending their bitcoins on things like that, especially if it's fast food.
Hopefully, their children won't spend their bitcoins on other things because that will be a waste for them and they won't save their bitcoins.
It would be more valuable if their children could invest their money in bitcoin rather than shopping, especially since bitcoin will become something valuable in the future.
447  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When the fun stops on: September 26, 2023, 10:15:09 AM
In as much as you  gamble, your primary reason is to make some money and every other reason is secondary and if you're fortunate enough, you can get both fun and money as well but it all depends on how well you play the game and the moment  you learn how not to play with money you can't afford to lose, the better for you and it saves you from addiction and frustration  in gambling.

@op I love how you made your writings clear but just as you already stated, I don't think anyone making straight and severe losses in gambling isn't having any fun, not in my country because I already know the cost of living is getting increasingly expensive and anyone getting involved in gambling already have the mindset of making money and I think the fun in gambling comes when there are winnings
If their main reason for gambling is to make money, they should know that gambling is not the place for that and they should not pin their hopes on gambling to make money.
They can have fun gambling, which is natural, but they cannot make money from gambling with money because there must be a price they have to pay to get that money.
Apart from that, gambling addiction has befallen many people, so they have to be more careful when gambling and not let them be the next person to experience it.
Gambling is expensive because people give up money to make money, even though they will not always be able to.
If that's the case, we should think of gambling as just entertainment and nothing more.
448  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gender in Gambling [differences between Women and Men in Gambling] on: September 26, 2023, 06:22:38 AM
Even though these religions have prohibited gambling, men and women still gamble, and many are addicted to gambling.
If this is the case, it is contrary to the purpose of gambling, where gambling is only to have fun.
And all of that can be overcome if gamblers, men and women, have self-control and self-discipline so they will not use gambling to make money.
If we refer to the research, it may be true that women are more interested in percentage-odds-based games while men are more interested in skill-based games.
But for the real answer, we will never know because that means we have to research gambling in all countries, both those that prohibit and allow gambling.
In the current era religious regulations are no longer so emphasized by most people whether women or men even though everyone understands that the religion they adhere to also strictly prohibits gambling.
Apart from the main goal of having fun in gambling, they also have other goals such as wanting to get some luck to win because since the Covid pandemic until now the economy in every country is still considered weak or unstable many small businesses have experienced bankruptcy and several private employees have been expelled and it is difficult to get a job again.
In fact I don't agree with this reason and all the same there are many women who are looking for fun from games of skill and men who are looking for a percentage of opportunities so this cannot be said to be the right reason and proven logical.

Yes that true and doing research is not easy especially now that there are so many gamblers turning to online casinos and it makes it difficult to know the gender of each gambling account.
They know that gambling is prohibited in their religion but they still gamble and if that is the case, no one can forbid them from continuing to gamble but hopefully, they can take care of themselves while they are gambling.
And it is hoped that they can use gambling as entertainment so that they do not gamble excessively and become addicted to gambling.
But it is true that since Covid-19, many people cannot go anywhere and need entertainment. Online casinos saw this opportunity and carried out promotions to attract these people.
This strategy is considered successful because many people see gambling as entertainment when they can't go anywhere, so many of them start gambling and not only men but women also gamble, although still secretly.
Yes, we may disagree with the study's results, but that is what they got and if they repeated the study, the results might be different.

No need to be confused but just enjoy the price movement because it looks like the price still can't increase too much.
Even if it can, it may not reach above $29k, so we have to be satisfied seeing the price can reach higher than it was some time ago.
There will be a time when it can increase drastically and in the meantime, you should focus on collecting more bitcoins because the time to increase drastically may come suddenly.
I'm still not sure if the price can surpass $28k or even $30k by the end of this month but who knows, it becomes a reality so that in the following months, bitcoin can rise even higher.
Now there is news that microstrategy has bought some bitcoins again. Strangely enough, but usually after such news there is a drop in price. I don't know if we should expect a repeat of this story now, but it seems to me that we will see a fall ahead one way or another. There will be a halving soon and people will need to be scared to buy coins as cheaply as possible.
Either the fall will occur in the future or the near future.
We can only be prepared for all possibilities because the current situation is still ups and downs and we don't know where the market will go.
And with the return of the green candle in the market now and the push for the Bitcoin price to return upwards, we have to be more careful because a decline can occur at any time.
Apart from that, the altcoin market is still not recovering and there is a tendency to follow where the bitcoin price will move.
Maybe if the price drops again, more companies will take advantage of the moment to buy more bitcoins and we can also take part in buying bitcoins.

I hardly oppose to most things that are said in here. The market condition wasn't the same as before. Today's trading is different. It may look alike but it is completely different circumstances, economic events, and fundamentals. Every price action in the marketplace is unique. We're actually in a down-trending market and no longer in a consolidation.

The second thing is about the ultimate goal of trading. It is following the plan. Making money is just a byproduct of the discipline and work-ethic of following one's trading plan.

The market price of Bitcoin is till dancing around $26k and for almost a week now there's no form of leaving that amount and at some point it seems to be the price for this month before entering October.
I still don't know why it hasn't gotten to $27k but when the price grows to $26,700 it will come down drastically, what's really the cause? Because we're still expecting it to go beyond $27-28k before the end of this month.
No need to be confused but just enjoy the price movement because it looks like the price still can't increase too much.
Even if it can, it may not reach above $29k, so we have to be satisfied seeing the price can reach higher than it was some time ago.

       -   There are other religions that do not prohibit gambling, such as Buddhism, Hinduism, and others. This means that in these countries that I have mentioned, the religions do not say that it is forbidden to gamble, whether it is a woman or a man, nor is it mentioned whether even a child can gamble too.

But there are other religious countries that oppose gambling, such as Islam, Christianity, and others. Because for me, there seems to be no difference between women and men; if only there were when it comes to self-discipline and self-control, this is the only part where I see the difference between them.
Even though these religions have prohibited gambling, men and women still gamble, and many are addicted to gambling.
If this is the case, it is contrary to the purpose of gambling, where gambling is only to have fun.
And all of that can be overcome if gamblers, men and women, have self-control and self-discipline so they will not use gambling to make money.

Gambling is not for everyone, especially if that person does not have the things needed for gambling, such as self-control, capital limitations, and others.
They will only experience a lot of losses and it will be even worse if they really cannot reduce their gambling time.
You must be able to stay away from gambling because you are a victim, especially since gambling has ruined your father's life.
You can recover from destruction as long as you are willing to try and don't give up so you can leave and stay away from gambling so that you won't gamble forever.
And if you want to start trying to make money, you can start now and stay focused on making money.
454  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Earnings on: September 25, 2023, 09:09:12 AM
You only need the will to stop gambling because, without it, you will not be able to stop gambling.
But earning bitcoins and gambling are different things, so if you want to make money from trading, you have to learn more from other people, which obviously takes time.
But not many people are willing to spend their days learning to trade and instead gamble, so their desire to make money from bitcoin will not be achieved.
You must be able to find lessons about trading and don't expect other people to teach you because they may not be able to.
Nowadays you can get various kinds of lessons from the Internet so you have to look for them to learn what you need.

Let's wait and see what Elon says after he reads information from analysts from Bloomberg.
But I doubt that Elon will return to supporting bitcoin and start accepting bitcoin payments again, especially since we know that he always easily replaces his statements.
However, if he does receive bitcoin payments again, is he prepared for the current fluctuations in bitcoin prices?
If he really wants to collect more bitcoins from sales, he can return to accepting bitcoin payments and not care about bitcoin price fluctuations.
Besides, it seems that Elon is now relaxing and enjoying his weekend by playing poker Grin

In holding bitcoin wisely, we need knowledge to hold it well.
This knowledge is about choosing a wallet, the recommended holding procedure, what must be done before sending coins to the wallet, when we have started to enter the holding phase, after the coins are in the wallet and maybe much more.
So as long as we wait for the bull run time to arrive, we can store bitcoin safely for a long time and don't need to worry about hackers because we have used all the recommended procedures.
Most importantly, we don't tell other people where our wallet is, except people we trust, to avoid things we don't want.

Actually, I'm a bit confused by @OP's story but I'm trying to understand as best I can.
I have only used P2P on Binance and always try to look for sellers who have the highest ratings and I can see some sellers have 100% completion on Binance.
The price difference may be slightly different from other sellers, but there might be a lot of difference in the ratings, so I'd rather pay a little more than get into trouble.

If you want to use P2P on DEX, make sure that the seller is a seller who has a high rating and a high level of success in transactions to avoid problems because they always maintain their reputation well.
We may still need an escrow agent to hold the money and complete the transaction so that both parties have no problems.
And it is right that if you do not receive anything, you do not have to release the funds and you can wait for their response to make the transactions.
And for the @OP case, he did the right thing by not releasing the coins until he received the money.
460  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are You Tax Efficient With Your Gambling Habbits? on: September 21, 2023, 12:09:26 PM

To me, social rights are essential. You mentioned welfare and, according to a study I recently heard of, I strongly believe that in those countries where money is well redistributed the capacity for growth is greater. A country where the poor is poorer can't organically grow. I understand why poor people feel that they are being robbed when they have to pay their taxes and still don't see any benefits.

But we unfortunately live in an era where greediness in the norm. It is clear in the private sector, to the point of putting basic sustainability itself at risk, but the public sector is not any better in many cases, and changing that should be the first step to improve people's quality if life.
That is why the government must be able to manage tax money from gambling and other sources of income to channel it back to people with low incomes and add public facilities to return to its citizens.
If greed up there could be controlled by continuing to channel the rights of its citizens to the right places, a country's economy could improve, although not too significantly.
At least, little result can be given to the country's citizens so that the people can survive.
And if more tax money can be managed properly and correctly, of course, that will encourage change in a better direction for the country, and the people's economy will improve.
Hopefully, in the future, when the leader has been replaced with a better one, this can be realized for the welfare of the country's citizens so that the country can also develop better.
