maswerte lang talaga ang mga nauna para kasing base din kasi din ito with axie nila ginaya halos ung model.

malaki difference nito vs Axie Infinity. Ung sa Axie Infinity, while dinescribe nila ang laro as Play-to-Earn, hindi sila nagpromise ng profits. Whereas ung Lele Gold, straight off investment scheme.

Apparently, they've changed their mind[1] in using the GTX name due to the public backlash. Like, what were they expecting in the first place? Praise? After naming their platform after platforms that went bust? Lmao.

1923  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [NEWS] - $9 BILLION EUROPEAN DIGITAL BANK N26 ENABLES BITCOIN TRADING on: January 18, 2023, 06:13:16 AM
I know it's not a new think in cryptocurrency. Since cryptocurrency evolved a lot, from the time that no one ever believes up to the time that even banks are gradually accepting the benefits of cryptocurrency especially Bitcoin.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves here and think that banks are suddenly now bullish on bitcoin. Because if they were, they would be buying it. It's simply the fact that bitcoin has a lot of public interest and the fact that they can monetize through trading fees hence the bitcoin trading integration.
1924  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A day for representation of Bitcoin on: January 18, 2023, 04:20:43 AM
I think Miss Universe 2023 is a green message for Bitcoin. What do you think about it?

It's cool and all, but it's mostly a nothingburger. It's not like most people haven't heard of Bitcoin already.

El Salvador's 1 BTC per day has a far bigger impact. While buying 1 BTC a day has little to no effect on the market technically due to it being a very small amount of money, it socially has a bigger effect because of it showing a decent amount of confidence with bitcoin.
1925  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which indicators you use? on: January 18, 2023, 04:08:27 AM
Nothing — I don't use "traditional" indicators at all, as I trade using narratives and social signals(mostly on Twitter, Reddit on rare cases); and to add to that, fundamentals — yes, as funny as it sounds you can use fundamental analysis on crypto on some cases.

AFAIK, this is a different type of scam where anyone who imports the keys would see a balance in the wallet, but would need to make a deposit before they can send it out to cover the feea. This seems more believable as no one is directly prompting them to do anything and it looks like free money.

The scammers has already used a sort of script which sends out any asset deposited into the address, so once they make a transaction,bit is instantly sent out from the wallet.

Pretty much. I'd imagine that this scam isn't one of those scams where the scammer could steal hundreds of thousands to millions with a single victim, but instead it's something that has a very low reward(small deposits for fees) but far higher chances of success.

Despite the UI being oldschool-ish, CoinGecko does the job well. Add the fact that you wouldn't need to download a separate app, as people mostly have the CoinGecko app to start with for price lookups.
1928  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: It's a shame people still falling for this on: January 17, 2023, 06:10:30 PM
You need to wise up, in this world today, people don't give up something without wanting something back, nothing is actually for free, so if someone contacted you on Twitter, Telegram or any social media platforms saying they can make you rich by helping them or they played dump as if they can't operate their own wallet or account they are 100% scammers.

It's not even just today — it's pretty much the same since forever when talking about the internet/web. And unfortunately, delusional people will always exist — hence such scams will always exist. All we can do is to potentially lessen the number of victims a bit.
1929  Economy / Economics / Re: The Growth of cryptocurrency over foreign currency. on: January 17, 2023, 05:57:57 PM
As a trend indead Bitcoin has really show it's potential value, as in case of society currently are about to change which will automatically make both investors and government agencies to change their currency into Bitcoin inorder to safe guard their money it is a note that there are every probability that in time to come cryptocurrency will be officially adopted so I encourage everyone to go into cryptocurrency either in terms of trading or investment.

Government changing their currency to bitcoin? That's one way to totally send a huge majority of their people deeper into poverty and definitely one effective way for the people to not vote for them again. It's like expecting Apple to be selling their iPhones running Android OS.
1930  Economy / Economics / Re: Brace yourselves, CBDCs one Step Closer on: January 17, 2023, 04:47:14 PM
Brace yourselves for what? CBDC is pretty much just fiat with a different back-end(possibly tokenized) anyway. I'd imagine that a CBDC would just be a far worse version of USDT or USDC.
1931  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: i am a housewife want to invest in bitcoin on: January 17, 2023, 04:13:55 PM
Don't "invest" in bitcoin just because the number can go up. Invest in it if you actually think it will go up because you agree/align with the investment theses. Because for every bitcoin-positive person here on Bitcointalk, there will be a skeptic on other social media.

Educate yourself — you're obviously going to get biased answers here.

1932  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Poll: What percent of your portfolio is stored in Bitcoin/Crypto on: January 17, 2023, 07:51:23 AM
>60% deployed in various cryptocurrencies that I personally think would outperform BTC. The rest, in fiat and in stablecoins(so I can buy easier and faster). And yes, while there could be more downward price movement, I can take the hit as I'm 100% in spot, and that I have income to increase my buying power.
1933  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: It is ok to sell your Bitcoin. on: January 17, 2023, 06:19:26 AM
1. Depends who you're asking. Not everyone is holding bitcoin for the same exact reasons.

2. Because I know I and the huge majority of people can't consistently and accurately predict bottoms.

3. Because I'm long term bullish on bitcoin due to it's characteristics.
1934  Other / Archival / Re: Mass adoption: Naming my child bitcoin on: January 17, 2023, 05:25:12 AM
Want your child to be bullied? Because that's definitely one way for your child to be bullied.

If you want to make an homage to Bitcoin, probably at least pick Satoshi or Hal instead?
1935  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A good way to promote Bitcoin or not? on: January 16, 2023, 09:42:27 AM
As long as you're confident that you can actually give great answers that doesn't make Bitcoin sound like a pump-and-dump scheme, then sure.

In my opinion, a quick conversation in your store isn't ample enough time for them to get a good grasp on what Bitcoin is and why it's important. Idunno, probably hand out small strips of paper with links to education material?
1936  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: ads might drain your wallets on: January 16, 2023, 09:02:35 AM
Ublockorigin can help against ads on computer, some antivirus can help too. But some people have little amount of bitcoin on phones nowadays, no matter how small the coins are, it has to be protected, ublockorigin is not having a mobile phone one, what can be the alternative for mobile phones?

It's not as good as using the uBlock Origin plugin, but the Brave browser works decently in my opinion. Yea it gets a lot of bad rap because they have a token, but you don't really need to have the token for it to work to its full potential.

1937  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: ads might drain your wallets on: January 16, 2023, 08:13:40 AM
Heads up: always use the uBlock Origin ad-blocker when browsing the internet on your computer. It effectively removes like approximately 95% of ads everywhere. It's free and open-source, and it removes a lot of unnecessary clutter when browsing the web.

If the forum's search engine sucks as both of you've identified (I've noticed it too) then it's about time something is done on that. The few times I tried to search stuff on the forum it was herculean getting through. Henceforth, I will start adopting mk4 method.

I totally doubt something would be done with the current search function knowing how stagnant the forum development is (both in the current SMF version of Bitcointalk, and the future EpochTalk version). Fortunately just opening a Google tab is almost just as convenient.
1939  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Btc get to $12k or $10k on: January 16, 2023, 05:33:55 AM
Yes but bitcoin is not going below $10000, even bitcoin may not go below it lowest price last year again which is $15400. Bitcoin may decrease back but not going below that price and what we are going to notice later on is that the price will reach ATH.

Not saying that it will not happen because it's definitely unlikely, but it's absolutely very possible. Take note that $10,000 is merely just approximately 55-60% down from here. If there's something I've learned about bitcoin after 7 years, it can definitely surprise people — both in the upside and the downside.
1940  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Anyone know why FTT price started to rise just now? on: January 16, 2023, 05:07:26 AM
I'm certainly not the most qualified person to answer your question but I recently came across an article claiming that the FTX exchange was able to recover 5 billion dollars in assets (including  other cryptocurrencies, cash, and other liquid assets) in an effort to repay its customers, which could possibly justify the recovery FTT is marking.

Source: https://cryptopotato.com/ftx-locates-5-billion-in-assets-attorney-says-report/

Pretty much this. Some people on Twitter are speculating that there's a good chance that FTX ends up being solvent after all after selling the shares of FTX Ventures(Robinhood, etc). And add the fact that FTT is currently very illiquid — you can easily get pumps such as this.
