421  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Reasoning before investing can save you from lose on: January 14, 2024, 09:39:28 AM
That's pretty much just a slight twist to the generic "only invest what you can afford to lose" advice.

But yea — knowing that most people don't know what they're doing in this industry, that's decent advice. I assume most actually-smart investors don't follow the advice though.

There's really no way to know for sure unless you're already in one. But generally and historically, there are decent signs when a bull market is about to peak: when people around you suddenly become crypto "investors" and are making so much money in unrealized gains. Will it be the same in the future? No one knows.
423  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: I need help about ETH-wallet on: January 14, 2024, 08:28:48 AM
Solana has cheap swaps because the Solana chain itself has cheap fees, not because it has better wallet software. Same thing with Ethereum, Ethereum has expensive fees because the Ethereum network is pretty expensive, not Ethereum has bad wallets.

Whatever wallet you choose, Ethereum will have expensive fees.
424  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [ASK] About Ledger and Transaction Speed ​Bitcoin on: January 14, 2024, 03:56:28 AM
even though currently there is LN but in my opinion it is not the right solution, especially since there are people who say LN is not bitcoin because it is different from the main bitcoin network

While LN may or may not be "the" solution for cheaper fees(it still generally sucks today), LN transactions settle to the main Bitcoin ledger at some point, so it ends up actually being on the "main bitcoin network".

But anyway, safe to assume that looking for a strong solution is technically difficult. So for now we're stuck with CEXs, and WBTC.
425  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin ETF approved, next Ethereum ETF? on: January 11, 2024, 11:21:49 PM
There's a good chance of an Ethereum ETF, but I think it'll be a slippery slope: from the ICO frauds of the past, Ethereum Foundation/Consensys dumping ETH pretty much every few months, etc.

The market seems to be expecting an Ethereum ETF though; but you know what's hilarious? If Litecoin gets an ETF instead of Ethereum lmao.
426  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can Bitcoin Drop to Zero? on: January 11, 2024, 10:57:03 PM
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.
427  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.
428  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).
429  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.
430  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: SEC Approves ETF - Turns out, NOT on: January 10, 2024, 05:33:58 AM
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.

431  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.
432  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I used a mixer and then got banned from exchange. Now what? on: January 10, 2024, 04:03:03 AM
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.
433  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.
434  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.
435  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.
437  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.
438  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.
439  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.
440  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.
