For bitcoin's price to reach literally zero, there would have to be literally zero buyers. Like, literally people should be dumping with zero bids all the way down. If you think that bitcoin can get to a point where that certain bad of a scenario can happen, then I sure I guess.
402  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin commercials on: January 11, 2024, 05:20:30 PM
Does BlackRock and Fidelity do commercials? I'm not from the US. It's actually their (potential) commercials that I'm interested with because both of these have strong-ass brands that could far easier convince the masses to get into Bitcoin.
403  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investing in meme coins is worthy or not? on: January 11, 2024, 04:48:49 PM
What makes memecoins as a potential good investment(more of like a trade, though) is the number of influential people shilling it, and at the same time the level of funniness of the said memecoin.

The one you mentioned, lmao. They're really mentioning marketcap websites, DEXs, and block explorers as "partners"? It's like saying you wrote a document so you're partnered with Microsoft(word).
404  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Who is newbie and how long does it take to navigate the forum? on: January 10, 2024, 02:26:12 PM
First off: remember that "newbie" is an actual word that means "an inexperienced newcomer to a particular activity."(source:Google)

So if someone said "don't teach others when you are a newbie", there's a good chance that the person is actually describing the dictionary term of newbie, not necessarily the Bitcointalk rank. Depends on who is saying it, of course.

Funny how the SEC — supposedly a major entity when it comes to investments, didn't use 2-factor authentication(2fa) on their Twitter/X account despite them knowing how much influence Tweets from their account will have. They're a freakin joke.

406  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Hold than trade. Just don't use leverage, futures. on: January 10, 2024, 04:21:45 AM
Even without the recent fake news Tweet, bitcoin/crypto has *expectedly* been extra volatile lately. Yesterday we literally just had a scam wick down to $45,700, then immediately bounced back up.

When in shaky situations like this, using leverage(or at least high leverage), seems like suicide.

And yet you didn't tell us which exchange

You probably have access to search engines like Google, but alright, here's one quick article: https://news.bitcoin.com/another-crypto-exchange-discourages-the-use-of-bitcoin-mixing-services/

Binance, Paxos, Coinbase, and pretty much almost any exchange that isn't planning on getting shut down.
408  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can Blockchain Games Revolutionize the Gaming Industry? on: January 09, 2024, 06:11:48 PM
It's fascinating how blockchain gives in-game items real-world value. But I'm curious, do you think this will change the core motivations for playing? Will fun still be the main driver, or will maximizing earning potential take over?
This whole Arbitrum Layer 3 thing for traditional gamers sounds promising too. Cause It could be something big here, especially if they start bringing out some killer games.

Games have had in-game items that have real-world value for a good while now; even way before blockchain existed. In-game items will have demand simply because the players want it; regardless if blockchain is used or not.
409  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Three basic fact you would love to know about bitcoin on: January 09, 2024, 05:56:02 PM
Lol there are some lessons here:

1. You don't need to create redundant topics that have been mentioned/discussed a thousand times before inside and outside of Bitcointalk.
2. Double-check your facts before sharing them with the world.
410  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: [Warning] Fake Ledger wallet update email with phishing link. on: January 09, 2024, 04:50:33 PM
If you use an e-mail that has good spam detection, most of such messages will go to the spam folder anyway, where they will be automatically deleted after some time. For those messages that still make it into the inbox, you should simply mark them as spam and in that way help other users not receive them in the inbox.

I'm not sure if there are certain words that can be added to spam filters in some e-mails so that you practically prohibit receiving e-mails that contain content that we are not interested in. For someone who does not own a Ledger or some other HW, I see no reason to receive any e-mails related to the same, especially if it is possible phishing/malware links.

I mostly agree with you, but if you have an email that has been leaked through the Ledger email database leak, it's pretty much a lost cause; and I'm telling this from experience — you're simply just going to get everything thrown at you.

Para mas maging aware sa karamihan ng mga scams: https://chainsec.io/scams

Un lang naman. Maging aware sa mga scams, tapos gumamit ng reputable hardware wallet(Ledger/Trezor), tapos. Yang dalawang yan palang sobrang labo nang manakaw ung funds mo.
412  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Master node Experience - worth it? on: January 09, 2024, 06:27:54 AM
Are masternodes even still a thing in 2024? The last time masternodes have been hot was in 2016-2017 with projects like Dash. The cryptocurrency industry has moved to staking now — which makes a bit more sense because it's pretty similar to dividends with stocks.
413  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: [Warning] Fake Ledger wallet update email with phishing link. on: January 09, 2024, 05:58:08 AM
Hackers/scammers will ALWAYS be making schemes or ways of tricking people because hacking hardware wallets is where they'll likely get high amounts of stolen funds. This(and scams in general) won't change as long as humanity exists.

Also: if you've been getting a lot of scam emails, it's a sign that you need to change email addresses.
414  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I used a mixer and then got banned from exchange. Now what? on: January 09, 2024, 05:40:04 AM
all you have to do is ask the exchanger who was banned. then why was it banned. ask for a solution what to do to get it unbanned. crypto currency is nothing strange your coins come from anywhere will not be questioned. the solution is just above that contact the CS exchanger. or use another exchanger if you want to cash out the crypto you have into fiat money. via p2p or sell directly to crypto users where you live.

Just so you know — there have been a decent number of posts here on Bitcointalk and other crypto-communities concerning their CEX accounts being banned because of them mixing/CJing their coins. There have been several exchanges that have already spoken about this as well.
415  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I used a mixer and then got banned from exchange. Now what? on: January 09, 2024, 04:20:32 AM
Not totally sure what the best thing to do is, but if I were in your situation, what I would do is send the coins to probably a dozen wallet addresses, and continue sending and sending to different wallet addresses for a month or so(probably 20 times? depending on how sure you want to be); so if your coins have been sent over with a good number of hops, hopefully their system ignores the mixing history.
416  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: So Who Owed Satoshi Money? on: January 08, 2024, 06:46:41 PM
Under the new IRS rules, you have to report  any receipt of crypto over $10k. So, Satoshi has to dox himself, OR break the law
https://twitter.com/attorneyjeremy1/status/1743842422285562336/photo/1

I think people are overanalyzing things with this. It is a bit unlikely, but if I were to guess, it was some dude who made a crap load of money on btc/crypto/trading that sent the $1.2m just so send a message (not necessarily to thank Satoshi because who knows if he's still alive).
417  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is this the kind of world you want to live in? [read] on: January 08, 2024, 06:21:35 PM
I mean, it's been discussed time and time again that attempts to attain such a level of control are to be expected, right? It's the reason why the main recommendation is no-kyc exchange, non-custodial wallets, and maybe mix/coinjoin your coins.

And if a certain government goes too hard on bitcoin, some of them will simply go silent for a while, or move to greener pastures.
418  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Which wallet can i use for my needs on: January 08, 2024, 04:59:01 PM
Generally, I don't like the available wallets that cater to lots of cryptocurrencies.

Bitcoin: BlueWallet
Ethereum and EVM(BNB, etc): MetaMask/Rabby
Solana: Phantom
Cosmos and Cosmos eco: Keplr
Tron: I don't use Tron so idk
419  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Does this Qualifies you to give non-professional or semi-professional financial on: January 08, 2024, 04:34:28 AM
With this wealth of experience among many others not mentioned do you think it qualifies you to provide non-professional or semi-professional financial advice regarding Bitcoin to individuals?

Pretty simple. Since I'm technically not a licensed professional financial advisor, every single "advice" I say should be considered non-professional financial advice; regardless of how good/bad my advice is.
420  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is the bull run begun ? on: January 07, 2024, 06:03:01 AM
The fact that we cannot predict the future with accuracy does not mean that we cannot make probabilistic predictions that are accurate most of the time. In this sense, it is quite a bit more likely that the price of Bitcoin will be higher than it is now a year from now than it will be lower. Halving, the historical pattern or the moderation of central bank rate policies are strong arguments for thinking so.

It depends on how we define the bull run, but I would say we are more likely at the beginning.

Of course, as long as when you meant "most of the time", you meant ±5-8% in probability. Anything more than that is just delusional.

And yea, with the halving there's a decent chance that it'll work out the same, but at the same time, there's no guarantee that it will. There's always a first time for everything.

Tbh I'd would've answered different if we were in the Trading Discussion section.
