I didn't understand the meaning of these words NSFW, NSFL, DOXes.

NSFW = Not Safe For Work. Pornography, nudity, those kinds of stuff.
NSFW = Not Safe For Life. Gore, violence, those kinds of stuff.
DOX = Unnecessarily publicizing sensitive information on a person who wants to be private/anonymous.

By the way, all three of these acronyms are easily Google-able.

Anyone who actually takes this industry seriously knows that valuing literally any asset(crypto or not) should be based on marketcap/FDV, not token price. It's either the writer is totally market/finance illiterate, or they're catering to those who are market/finance illiterate.

This might sound cringe and farfetched but it's like asking if you should invest in agriculture vs tech. SHIB and NEAR are 2 very different plays — the former being a memecoin play, the latter being an Layer1/AI play. Whichever category you're more bullish on, will depend on you.

But yea, you don't need to go 100% on one of them. You can go 50/50, or maybe 70/30, etc.

He have experinces over 15 years he make everyday about 100% profit for real i seen he really do i don't know exacly how but he told me

Your boy is either lying, or already got delusional with his new strategy thinking that it'll work great forever lol. If he's actually making 100% profit every day (in a long timespan), then your friend should probably be one of the richest people at least in your country.
5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Solana price predictions and developement? on: May 03, 2024, 04:16:50 PM
So i think we see 7000$ price because supply and demand but even that much gain it's not life Changing gain so that's why i don't try to get rich with alt coins neither with btc but it's nice to some gains.

Broski if Solana going to $7000 isn't life-changing money for you, then you probably need to get a job for you to be able to invest more money in the markets lmao. That's literally a 48x if that's not life-changing, nothing will be. (Definitely not saying it will reach that price because the market cap will be too high.)
6  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Edward Snowden Final Warning for Bitcoin on: May 03, 2024, 03:54:30 PM
No.
Real problem is that certain someone doesn't want to have any privacy on bitcoin, and on anything else that people use for that matter.
There are other coins that have much better privacy, so it's possible to do it and we don't need a century to do that.

Do you think that we can simply just copy-paste some privacy code from some other project and just slap it onto the Bitcoin network's source code then poof we got privacy on the protocol level? Because it definitely doesn't work that way lmao.
7  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Edward Snowden Final Warning for Bitcoin on: May 03, 2024, 09:16:22 AM
Edwards Snowden just made a tweet with final warning for everyone that privacy for Bitcoin is needed on protocol level.
I tend to agree with him on this and I really don't understand why nothing has been done regarding that for years, unless this was done intentional.

I'm definitely not skilled enough to be called a 'developer', but I think you're just totally underestimating how difficult it is to achieve this without potentially fucking up the entire protocol. Bitcoin is already gigantic enough that we can't afford to move fast and try to just push upgrades under the sun.



Funny comment was made by Jameson that we might take another ten years to do this  Tongue
The clock is ticking...
What is Jameson implying by that statement. Does he mean that Bitcoin developers don't see eye to eye on this?

He's implying that things look far more difficult and complicated than most people think.

Took a quick look at this Futurum Gaming thing's website.

Man, it literally has its tokenomics on its home page instead of doing 100% focus on what the product is actually about? (assuming that there's actually a product.)
Not saying that the project is bad, but that itself is not a good look lmao.

I'm pretty sure you can't create signed messages with literally any custodial exchange. While technically the custodial exchanges can do it because they have the keys to the exchange's wallet addresses that you're using, their systems are simply not designed for that.
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Forbes' ‘Good for Nothing' Blockchains on: May 02, 2024, 10:10:03 AM
I guess the media house like Forbes forgot that crypto was never meant to be used to solve real world problems, whereas it was created to be the currency of the internet.
To be fair — bitcoin/crypto being the currency of the internet does solve some problems, no? Decentralization, the fact that your funds are always accessible(as long as you don't get hacked/scammed); especially if you're in countries where the government are too 'harsh'.


After seeing the list I am certain about one thing that everyone except the crypto community hates Monero.
It's probably just total ignorance from their part tbh.
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Forbes' ‘Good for Nothing' Blockchains on: May 02, 2024, 05:10:10 AM
Knowing how much crap we have in this industry, I don't know why of all coins they've chosen to add Fantom, Monero, and Arweave; at the very least these 3 have a small amount of actual usage.

Most especially Monero. It's pretty much the de-facto privacy coin.
12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Most Practical Coins on: May 01, 2024, 05:38:05 PM
USDT is stable but transaction fees are still a little high, so why pay $1 on the Ethereum blockchain or TORN when I can do the same transaction with cheaper fees using LTC Doge XRP and a lot of coins that offer very low fees.

Transactions on the likes of BNB, Solana, and Tron are sub $1, and the fact that you wouldn't need to rush things and do the transactions immediately because the price of LTC/DOGE/XRP can move quickly knowing how volatile this market is. With stablecoin transfers you can just chill.
13  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: TRADERS are not UNEMPLOYED on: April 30, 2024, 06:37:20 AM
Hence, solo/at-home traders are unemployed.
Some also tell fulltime traders, but we can't say they are employed especially if they are trading alone using their own money and can trade anytime they want and not relying to other people or company.
Take a look with Cambridge dictionary.

not having a job that provides money:

It means if the traders make money from trading, it's considered as self employed. But if they didn't earn from trading, they're unemployed. Unemployed is when you didn't provides money, it's why traders get taxed because they're making money.

"Job" isn't necessary need to rely on other people money or under someone company.

In summary: It will totally depend on which dictionary definition you're going to base it upon lmao — hence, again, it's something that people shouldn't really be taking too seriously. I don't know why it's such a huge ego-hit for people to be categorized as unemployed.
14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Atomic Wallet Staking Rewards For LUNC Is 38% on: April 29, 2024, 12:33:28 AM
I don't know man, maybe because the protocol is pretty much dead usage-wise and reputation-wise(ehem, Luna)? Even if this was 100% APY or heck even 200% APY, how is it attractive if it's likely for the token to drop in price anyway? I checked CoinGecko — I don't know why this crap is still worth $600m.
15  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: TRADERS are not UNEMPLOYED on: April 29, 2024, 12:21:18 AM
Gambling is not trading but the risk is much as it is in gambling. Theoretically you can see a lot of differences in gambling and trading, but in real life you will noticed that they are both risky.

If you have other sources of income and you are trading, you will not rely on trading. You will be able to make the right analysis and not panic. But if someone is thinking of earning from only trading, the person is knocking the door to his own failure.

Trading should not be seen as a job. It will let you want to set target. Poor think can come from there. Trading should only see trading as alternative and enter the market when necessary.

I know that trading is heavily frowned upon here (for the right reasons, and I absolutely won't recommend trading to anyone), but it's not THAT one-sided and binary. Trading — depending on strategy, can actually work, it's just that a huge majority of people won't be able to successfully pull it off. With that logic you're pretty much also clumping up starting a business with gambling just because it's also very risky.
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The rate of abandoned projects on solana on: April 29, 2024, 12:05:06 AM
Why the dev is not finding any utility focused project on solana? Something is not right in it.
Because the Solana development team are focused on working on Solana — the network, not DeFi protocols?

But it still failed to overtake ETH network that means speed is not the key factor in the industry.
My brother in Christ Ethereum has been up and running since 2014, whereas Solana has only been up since 2020; and add the fact that Ethereum is the first smart contract platform, of course Solana won't be able to have more projects than Ethereum this quick.
17  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: TRADERS are not UNEMPLOYED on: April 28, 2024, 11:51:30 PM
Traders = unemployed (unless working for a trading firm) = not employed

Hence, solo/at-home traders are unemployed.

Why look too deep into it? Unemployed doesn't necessarily mean you're not working on something. It's just the fact that you're not under a company's payroll.
18  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Cold Wallet - The First Real Crypto Movie on: April 28, 2024, 11:46:55 PM
Is bitcoin core a cold wallet?

Not sure how this relates to this topic(a movie lol), but if you installed it on an air-gapped device running a secure open-source Linux OS like Tails, then sure. Otherwise, no.

If you don't know what you're doing, just purchase a Ledger or Trezor hardware wallet. Don't complicate it.
19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think of Predict to Earn Model? on: April 28, 2024, 04:12:11 PM
Seems to be such a flawed model with a lot of centralization issues by just reading your description. Why is such a token needed if people can just "predict to earn" through futures or options trading? we also even have crypto-native gambling sites already.
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Profitable Games on: April 28, 2024, 09:57:47 AM
It's going to be pretty difficult to find a sustainably profitable game as people in general get automatically skeptical because of the Axie Infinity hype of 2020. In my opinion the money to be made with crypto-games is through buying the picks and shovels(could be tokens or items, it depends on the game) of the games that are gaining a bit of hype, then just exiting when the time is right.
