With the existing pandemic that brought us into the situation of being lockdown into our houses to prevent the further spread of virus, many of us are feeling stress and boredom because we are already used to stay outdoors having our normal lives but because of the quarantine we feel like we are being manipulated and we do not experience freedom for we are prohibited to get outside if it is for unnecessary reasons. That is why we need to have a healthy body and strong mind to conquer the stressors that can possibly get into our minds for being locked inside our houses.

Mostly people that belongs in the lower classes experiences more stress this pandemic because they are always into thinking how will they survive this pandemic, how they can still ensure that they have something to eat when there is no source of income because workplaces and business establishments are temporarily closed leading to loss of jobs which is equivalent to no incoming money on hand.

Other cases are like many people are already experiencing depression due to the reason that they are alone during this pandemic for they have been lockdown on a certain place away from their loved ones. We need to cope this one up by keeping ourselves occupied on any ways that are possible and must have faith that this will soon to come on an end and everything will get back to normal. Physical, mental and emotional health is in need to be strengthen at this time of crisis.
4042  Economy / Economics / Re: Second Stimulus check - What are you going to do with it? on: August 08, 2020, 11:22:17 PM
The spending of second stimulus coming from the government would depend on the recipient himself for we differ on socio economic status in the community which means we do have different needs and that will vary on how we will spend the second stimulus check. For the people that belong on the lower classes or the poorest of the poor, surely they would spend it to provide their necessities. For those in the middle up to upper class, it depends if they will use it for investment or purchase other things that concerns their necessities.

Here in our country where I currently reside, we do also have same program which is giving financial aid to support the directly affected individuals mostly for the sector of the poorest of the poor and what I can see, most of them used it for the sake of survival on which they primarily used it to purchase their necessities to survive the pandemic due to lack of source if income amid with the existence of pandemic. Here states that the expenditure of the stimulus or the financial aid depends on the individual based on the needs they needed to fulfill.
4043  Economy / Economics / Re: What should you learn so you never get affected by a economic crises ? on: August 08, 2020, 10:35:44 PM
It is true that we are already heading into modernization and technological advancement but for a man to become obsolete because of the presence of AI robots that can do what humans do, it cannot be possible for robots are man made and programmed so there is still in need for humans to work for the maintenance of those robots. We are still beyond that era of AI robots will replace humans for the jobs that are in need to be done.

To overcome the effect of economic crisis, we must use the advent of technology to improve our resources for the economy does not rely only on the presence of modern technology but on the natural resources it also have where raw materials needed for production came from. Instead on focusing into creating robots that will replace humans on the future, we must get into the phase on how GMOs can be used to improve the natural resources for the sake of mankind.

Also, it is impossible for a certain individual not to get affected by the economic crisis when other people is directly affected by it. It is more on the psychological capacity to take the effect of the economic crisis on how he will handle pressure brought by the crisis. But we can surpass that negative effect if we will let ourselves do improve when it comes to skills and strategies that we can be able to use to create opportunities for ourselves that we can workout despite of the presence of economic crisis.

Getting into a bounty is your own free will and no one pushes you to get into it. It is your self responsibility to check the reliability and the legitimacy of the bounty you wish to get into. Indeed there are lots of scam bounties scattered in this forum but you as an individual must be the one responsible for verifying the legitimacy of the bounty which is the first thing that you must have done before engaging into it so that you won't waste your time on a scam project.

There is no sense on blaming other people for the unfortunate scenario you have got even though they do also have a faulty because they are making scam bounties and you have got victimized by those but still first things first, it is your own will and choice to join bounties for the sake of your own good. So it must be a lesson for you that on the next time you wish to get into a bounty, check and verify every single information that will satisfy you to claim it is a legitimate bounty so you won't get scammed the next time around.
4045  Economy / Economics / Re: Since jobs are unlikely to return, Do u think there will be a 3rd $1200 stimulus on: August 08, 2020, 09:11:33 PM
It would still depend upon the development of the situation if there is still in need of that. If so, that 3rd stimulus of $1,200 must only be given only to those who are directly affected by the loss of job and still cannot get back to work even on the existing new normal protocols which inhibit the slow opening of the economy on which business establishments and work places are now getting into operation to provide jobs to the people who have loss their job permanently because of the pandemic.

If that would be the case to focus the 3rd stimulus to the directly affected, then the government will have less expenses for the number of beneficiaries will be lessen because of some people are already getting back to work and can earn their own money. But while the economy is still struggling to get up because of unemployment, I think there is still in need for a stimulus as long as government can do provide.
4046  Economy / Economics / Re: 2020-2021 best year if You Want to become rich no skills needed on: August 08, 2020, 08:40:36 PM
It is funny to think that there are still people who tend to think that earning money is really that easy that you do not even need skills or knowledge to earn money. That was not how crypto works. Even if you do not need skills, still you do need prior knowledge before getting into any investment. Putting money into unsure investments that you have not think many times or did not even do some research on how such thing is going is like putting up your money into gamble and you are relying into the presence of luck. Investment is a serious matter that you need time doing research and finding potential crypto that will suit your budget to be able to decide if you will go into engagement with the certain crypto.

Getting loans are not advisable if you do not know how to properly use it if you do not have skills and knowledge. Strategy on how you will handle your money is considered as skill and knowledge because you are thinking of ways how you can manage using it to make it profitable to be able to pay for the loan you have made. Getting loans with no assurance on how you will use it is simple getting into a pool of debt. Before you get into any situation better to think because not doing such will just put you into certain risks specially on this kind of industry.
4047  Economy / Economics / Re: Pray for Our World (Pray for Lebanon) Another Economic Crisis on: August 07, 2020, 10:43:00 PM
That was seriously unexpected and terrifying that such event have happened while the world is still facing a serious threat on health concerns. It really feels sad that while many people are still in concern of their health to fight back against Coronavirus pandemic, the people in Lebanon are bringing a big loads of suffering on how their lives could be turned back to normal when their properties and livelihoods are all destructed by the blast that have killed many people and wounded many individuals as well.

The people in Lebanon have double sufferings at this moment that both concerns their life and health for where they will live at these days because their houses are destructed plus there is still a present threat concerning health because of the covid-19 pandemic. What we can do now is to give out our prayers and full sympathy to the affected individuals by that deadly blasting in Lebanon. May that happening be the last terrifying event this year for we cannot take furthermore damage at this time.
4048  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What difficulty do you face on trading bitcoin? on: August 07, 2020, 07:45:33 PM
Good thing that we have no legality issues when it comes to Bitcoin usage so the first problem that can be a hindrance for me to trade Bitcoin is already eliminated. When it comes to trading Bitcoin, well of course you do need to have funds which supposedly your own fund and not other people's fund to avoid conflict when time comes that you are failing to gain profits on doing trades. That was the first problem I have faced when I am deciding to trade with Bitcoin on when I must get first funds so I do other crypto related works to gain funds. Next, is on how would I do a successful trade, that was the next problem I have faced knowing the price of Bitcoin is really volatile which makes it a difficult task for me to understand first how trading works. So I did observe, learn to interpret charts and other related stuffs that could help me to understand trading and that is when I already learn and have a good fortune on doing trades

Those things are beyond the past when I am just starting my trading journey. Yes it have gone a long process but it is the best way to do it. Learn first before engaging to avoid doing fail trades and just keep up on doing successful trades to gain profit.
4049  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If War breaks out between China and the US, can China hack Bitcoin? on: August 07, 2020, 07:16:01 PM
At this point of time that we are still facing a crisis, it is impossible that a war would arise for we are already on a deadly scenario and conducting a war would just create a massive destruction and would not give any good. Also, people will surely not get to participate for their concerns are more on health related. Also, even if such thing would be possible to happen that a war may arise between China and United State, the war would be mainly because of different political stand and regarding other issues which will not concern Bitcoin so basically they would not give a care for the hacking of Bitcoins once a war arises between those two big countries.

The short response would be no because there is no valid and strong reason to do such and why would they even care about it if the reason of the tension between them are mainly to political issues and other concerns that are needed to be attend to.
4050  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 900,000 illegal bitcoins. on: August 07, 2020, 06:45:07 PM
Well, it seems like you have exposed the dark side of how Bitcoins are being used by some people working on illegal works to keep on making money. Yes, that was the sad reality that a big bunch of Bitcoins are being used illegally by some people to do their dirty jobs and make transactions by using cryptos but how can we be able to know that such Bitcoin we have received have came out from those illegal transactions if like paper money, Bitcoins are being circulated to provide the users demands and it was freely transferred through transactions. If that's the case, then we cannot tell from which hands does the Bitcoin we have came from.

But we must come to think that this were just a part of the whole Bitcoin circulating in the market and must not embody it as a whole. We cannot control people on how they would use their Bitcoins but this must not lead to misinformation that illegal transactions are being done all due by Bitcoin because a big part of it is still a clean track of transactions that are used for legal activities. All currencies have their flaws which are made up of people using it. The problem is not on Bitcoin but on the people doing illegal transactions using it.
4051  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Covid crisis & evolving phases on: August 07, 2020, 06:14:05 PM
The effect of Coronavirus pandemic on the living of the people pushes through the using of fiat (paper money) into digital money which is using cashless transaction as of the moment to keep up on avoiding the spread of virus which is said that can be transferred through physical money. This concept will remain to be temporary to permanent on the people's daily lives up until vaccine to treat the virus will be provided.

But since digital transactions have been part of the people's daily lives as companion during this pandemic, we can consider that we are now evolving the use of currency from physical to digital ones even it is not directly using cryptocurrencies but the usage of credit/debit card as well as online banking and mobile apps to do the transaction is already considered as digitalised transactions.

This pandemic have made an impact on our daily lives that from traditional we go up into using modern technology to continue our normal lives and make it on a digital way. Even if this pandemic have not pushed through the usage of cryptocurrencies since people have other options to do like credit/debit card payments and online banking transactions, still we have seen that the pandemic brought us up into digital economy to continue our lives amid to the existence of the pandemic.
4052  Economy / Services / Re: Roobet.com | Art Contest - $5000 Prizepool up for grabs! Ends August 31st on: August 06, 2020, 07:04:17 AM
Welcome to the new competition again.

I went from being a kid to something because i still don’t understand and also things i learned from previous competitions.

First of all, if a member brings this art from a third party with some money and participates in this competition again, then why it will be accepted. If this is the rule then the admin you can get the design from all these sites fiver, upwork etc then this competition will not be needed.

Second from the previous contest i saw that many members used software to do this design but why would it be considered acceptable, Because drawing with your own hands and creating using software will be the same? Never same. If there use software for this competition then how can i do better than them with hand design?.

However, for me this is not possible as more people will use software for this competition and some people will design with money from other people like third party.

Man you have no idea how hard to make a digital artwork using software like photoshop haha, Digital and Traditional artwork are valued the same, cause the expertise of using those two medium of art takes a lot of time to master. I am both traditional and Digital artist, and yes! I get more money using traditional cause it's my expertise but that doesn't mean that digital is less valuable than traditional artwork. Just go to deviant art and you will see some artist and clients there are willing to pay a thousand of bucks for a digital artwork.

With regards to people who are going to pay artist to join here, trust me that is not going to work LOL, Coz you are going to pay more than a thousand bucks to generate an artwork that may win this competition or maybe not  Wink



Last competition I lost also, and that's a shame cause I win the 10th anniv. competition but I can't win a competition like that. That's because of my 1 day preparation and 1 day artwork. But this competition, I will give my all and will make sure that I will get the 1st prize!  Grin So cheer up mate! don't underestimate any kind of medium, it's not the medium of art but the artist expertise to make a wonderful art and express it  Wink

I will re-claim my spot on being one of the best artist here on forum hahaha  Grin
4053  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Anyone in the Bitcoin ATM business? on: August 04, 2020, 04:58:43 PM
How is going? Seems like machines continued fast growth during Covid... has it been a good year for the BATM owners?

I was thinking the same thing, but may need a lot of money to invest for having my own BTC ATM machine. However, it also needs me to pay a huge amount of money to legalize and regulate it to be operational in my country.

One of my friends invited me to come with her in an office of her business contact. I see that he had like 10 Bitcoin ATMs, but wasn’t ready yet to be deployed due to legal and regulatory requirements needed to be processed.

I would really want my own Bitcoin ATM, but need more funds to invest for it.

And in addition to that, it may not really be a profitable since, it will depend on the location and the people's awareness to the cryptocurrency or bitcoin itself. On what I see is, after you pay all of those fees the renting fee will be there too, to take an awesome spot for you bitcoin ATM. It will be a risky business since you need a lot of money to buy one of those and a lot of legalities and after that, the profit is not sure. And in our current situation right now, with this virus, it will really be hard enough to make Bitcoin ATM into a profiting business. (just for me)
4054  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Good idea for a new trader to get into derivative trading? on: August 04, 2020, 01:27:16 PM
For me yes, but not for profit but for experience, It's okay for the new trader to experience a lot of platform and trading concept for him to decide on what, and which one should he start from, I know a lot of you will be suggesting manual trading but every individual has it's choice and preferred trading method, so going dipper into those kind of concepts will make him more experienced trader and will get a lot of information in his early stage off trading. And we all know that when it comes to trading the experience/knowledge really matter to be a successful one.  Smiley

4057  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 5 mistakes to avoid when investing in Crypto on: August 03, 2020, 05:50:59 PM
Such points are pretty impressive and indeed those were the common mistakes that most newbies have been doing for quite some time whenever they enter this industry and started to decide to get into investment. To make those good points be made into simple, basically you need to entirely educate yourself of all the important matters that you needed to learn not just about crypto investment or trading but into the whole usage and importance of cryptocurrency itself because if you did acquire needed knowledge, then those mistakes will be avoided due to the reason that being knowledgeable will keep you safe at all times and may lessen the chances of committing mistakes.

Always keep in mind the learnings you do obtain on familiarizing yourself about crypto because those knowledge can be useful in all manners that concerns cryptocurrencies. With regards to crypto currency trading and investment once you have already learned everything needed to analyze the coin you wish to invest, still take it slow on investing only amounts you can afford to loose just to keep on track because doing that will also be part of observing the coin's behavior to fully interpret its capacity to give you gains or losses.
4058  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto predictions on: August 03, 2020, 05:17:41 PM
For me personally I am not a fan of price predictions for the reason that every people can give their price predictions based on their opinion and perspective with regards to what they interpret on the price behavior of the coins in the market. Also, I basically base my decisions on trading based on what I observe on the price movement that can be seen on the price chart backed up with the information I read from the crypto news online and even updates I read here in the forum so I do not bother reading price predictions for they are just predictions and have the possibility to come true or not.

Also, the reason why I do not read price predictions is that because it just give false hope most of the time which is based on what I have experienced from the past so I get rid on viewing price predictions and just stick into the information in front of me that helps me decide on what will I do with my trades.
4059  Economy / Economics / Re: In the pandemic economy, tech companies are raking it in on: August 03, 2020, 03:25:49 PM
There is really no doubt and even not a surprise that even at this time of pandemic tech companies are still earning tons of money because now that people tend to stay at home to prevent the spread of virus and acquiring the infectious disease outside, people are finding some sort of entertainment to keep themselves busy and to lessen the boredom of staying at home on which social media platforms like Facebook and YouTube are present to give services of entertainment which are basically ads based making them to earn a lot since people are staying in front of their devices using those platforms for entertainment.

Even if there is no pandemic, tech companies are still earning tons of money for we are at the age of modern technology which obviously the age favorable for the technology industry to top among the other industries in terms of gaining profit and usage from the people. Now that we are still prohibited to go outside, tech companies will be earning more like it's the peak season for the reason that at this point of time people tend to use technology on everyday life situation since it is the safest way possible amid with the existence of this pandemic.

To be able for you to stop thinking about what really is the matter for the freezing of your bank account, better do seek the attention of your own bank and ask them directly of the issue you have right now. Coordinating with the bank will gradually help you to figure out if you have done something wrong that will be against the terms and conditions applied when you are opening your bank account. From that point, you can already figure out what is the problem and ask for the possible solution to resolve the problem which is to unfreeze your bank account.

If the issue root down on doing transaction with regards to cryptocurrencies and you currently reside within India, as far as I know India have first allowed then banned and allowed again the usage of cryptocurrencies but prohibit it as being use for payment option. If that is the case, better do seek legal attention on how you can resolve the problem if the issue is with that matter. After all, maybe they are just waiting for you to show up to appeal on your issue. But I think if there is really an issue, banks will send you a notice to know the problem and how you can be able to fix it out.
