1141  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I learned something new from Bitcoin today on: September 25, 2023, 05:38:18 AM
I learned something new today. I started bitcoin trading with 100 $ I made 10$ from here and I lost 11$ gambling with 100$ now I don't call gambling bad because I don't understand and I don't have patience to play the game
You say you just started trading, have you invested the time to learn the skill itself, as trading without any is considered gambling no two ways about this. And one red flag for me is you saying you dont have the patience...news flash both gambling and trading require a lot of patience to succed in either of them.

Secondly, if you aren't hodl-ing and you say you traded to make a $10 profit, then this tells me you were leverage trading which is among the high risk kind of trading! Btw you made your first profit from trading, can you replicate this just to prove to yourself that you weren't gambling or using beginners luck.

and past I easily from bitcoin made 10$ profit now which one should i choose you say i know a man need bitcoins in future but still a man can be addicted to gambling and to all of you i want to say none of you should be addicted to anything and not to gambling and you are more Trade Bitcoin and see your future shine.
The answer is in the writing, between gambling and trading you found better luck with trading the go for trading.

Btw addiction isn't only in gambling , you can be addicted to trading if you want to make a quick profit entering at each candle move which exposes you to more losses.,hence secret to this game is patience.

I'd be interested in remote working, but the economics field I've studied at university isn't in high demand for remote working, which often recruits IT workers and generally fields that require hands-on experience. As soon as I'm settled down, I'm considering taking up a data analysis course and finishing my master's degree in order to look for more opportunities abroad.
Staying without a job is one of the reasons I have been against courses that can allow you to survive on your own like engineering courses because business courses are very competitive and will require you to have lots of experience which many don't have today.

Maybe I'm stressing out too much because I'm yet to find proper housing to establish myself again after being away for over a year in the military.
With time things will be okay, hang in there buddy  Cool

This is just a reminder to everyone in the forum from newbie to legendary, that we should be very careful and not be in a rush when we want to make bitcoin transaction, we should be patient enough to go through the bitcoin address that we are sending the money to, and to make sure that it is the right amount of bitcoin that we are sending, over and over again.
Such mistakes can only be made on a pro wallet that requires you to put in your own transaction fees and the alike, otherwise most of our basic wallets will actually tell you the approximate fiat value of coins that will be leaving your wallet and users need to pay attention to this information to avoid such costly mistakes!

And when it comes to avoiding sending coins to a wrong Addy, I think the use of qr codes should help and  I haven't heard of a qr code being hijacked,  so we can say they are safe but still have that consciousness to always check on correctness of the info...

In any transaction of cryptocurrency you most be extremely careful and crosscheck your wallet especially the recipient address before sending your coins
Totally agree, for irreversible assets such as crypto, I believe its mandatory for everyone of us to spend 3-10 seconds just crosschecking on the correctness of this data to avoid preventable mistakes.
1145  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Don't Just HODL But HODL Wisely and Securely on: September 24, 2023, 06:30:14 AM
There are more than one thousand ways to HODL bitcoin. In fact, as of 2022 there were about 2,790 Bitcoin-related applications are available on the Google Play Store while Apple Store had about 651 such apps. To add to this there are 288 hardware wallets and 44 bearer tokens in circulation, all of there telling you that they are able to secure your bitcoin holdings

Don't just hold but hodl wisely and securely.
Appreciate the Timely advice  Cool

But in the name of hodling wisely and securely,  this isn't as easy as it sounds as not everyone has the technical know-how on choosing the best wallets as they believe that anything found on these app stores are legit when in fact not!!
Android devices being the most used devices in the world, I think Google fellas aren't doing enough to protect their users either as some apps have been reported to be fake, duplicates,  malware etc which compromises on our security and these apps keep finding themselves on the Store.

I was going through coinmarketcap today to see some of the cryptocurrencies I was involved in when I started, I was so surprised to see that a lot of them have even been delisted. I was heartbroken seeing that some tokens who raised millions of dollars, had huge community and were trending even in various platforms just died. I wanted to not mention any particular token but I have to mention PumaPay that raised about $8 million yet could not deliver anything and got investors holding a bag of shit.
This is criminal!!
$8 million dollars  was alot of money for any ICO project standards back then and not to have something to show for today is the likely reason why ICOs became unpopular back then as they failed to have these tokens listed on good exchanges with liquidity ,hence the birth of IEOs to protect investors.

I know there are other who would have similar experience too and there are still others caught up in the euphoria of getting rich through one token or the other. Well, if it is not Bitcoin, it is not worth holding.
Btw, seeing how all these ICOs dropped in value or failed to take off...does this validate/approve the selling of tokens by Bounty hunters the second they had them because  they feared this would happen Roll Eyes

I know that Rodri is a defensive midfielder however he is playing closer to scoring goals this season.
Watching the game and seeing the ref show Rodri a Red just reminded me of you wanting to bring him into your team..btw was the physical confrontation really necessary when the second half just started and his team was 2 nil up Huh
Now with Rodri out he makes it awkward for Manchester city assets to score more points as Nottingham forest will try to make something out of this...

Foden, Alvarez and Halaand Starts!! Time for trofo to feast. Who else has the 3 attackers.
Alvarez won't be getting a goal this afternoon with Rodri out & tempers high, but fingers crossed...

In other news, Kane started (did not think he will), Bayern's already 3-0 up but Kane got only 1. Not relevant for my league duel, but I like my chances of a freebet in this round so I need Guirassy here.
Why did they have to put Kane on penalty duties and now this lad has two goals to his name with 20 minutes plus added time to come, these guys aren't making it easy for us...please take him off already before he gets another one lol  Grin


I am starting to like the DOTA questions more and more as I have done some research here and there and by now am quite familiar with some of the team stats. Got the Gaimin Gladiators really wrong here, but Team Spirit is on a good way. 
Esports tend to be unpredictable especially that the Upper Bracket can lose and still fight it out with the lower bracket...good luck with Team Spirit  Cool

1151  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Could Satoshi have known? on: September 23, 2023, 06:31:50 AM
Satoshi said that:

The price of any commodity tends to gravitate toward the production cost.  If the price is below cost, then production slows down.  If the price is above cost, profit can be made by generating and selling more.  At the same time, the increased production would increase the difficulty, pushing the cost of generating towards the price.


He knows that the price will be volatile at the beggining.
This fine detail from Satoshi hits different, knowing too well that is what's actual happening atm!!

Btw at the moment markets aren't as active because many bought at a premium price and forced to hodl as price is in red on their books not until price climbs back up for them to break even or go for the profits..and this will only happen with new players to buy the cheap coins.

Maybe we are wrong to think that Satoshi never had the thought that bitcoin was going to become very volatile and people were going to be able to make money from how the  price of bitcoins changes easily.
With supply and demand at the center of everything, he definitely knew bitcoin would be volatile based on selling and buying that will always tilt the swing here and there and not forgetting bitcoin isn't pegged to anything will always have the characteristic of volatility written all over it.
1152  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: No gains, 1 Minute Scalping Strategy on: September 23, 2023, 05:34:21 AM
As much as you want to be in and out of a trade as soon as possible,  unfortunately the 1 minute time frame isn't for beginners based on the fact that its  very noisy to the extent of it not following high time frame bias.. which means more likely to take you out of trades occasionally.

For a better winning rate, I would suggest you move to the 5min or 15min to clean out the noise and see yourself catch more winners and still be able to scalp on these timeframes without a problem.

I know that Rodri is a defensive midfielder however he is playing closer to scoring goals this season. When we think his price as well I'm thinking of adding Rodri to my squad
Not a bad asset to own, but with Pep in the driving  seat, the cost of missing out on valuable points is high because this team is known for non stop rotations regardless of splendid performances by a player.

to add Salah as well.
If you are going to have Salah and probably Erling Haaland,  then you are likely going to have to compensate with some cheap midfield to work within your budget.
1154  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Gives the poor an Opportunity. on: September 22, 2023, 09:19:08 PM
If you are going to compare the real estate industry to bitcoin and say bitcoin is way better for the poor then am not siding with you here!!
Think about it without any bias or shilling, most investment opportunities in real life can be financed with loans without having the actual money and make good profits at the end of it, unlike Bitcoin which needs you to have the money if you want to buy and hodl as its high risk and very few wiĺl finance such an undertaking...

So if we perform a reality check on this, bitcoin isn't really for the poor especially that the available resources are needed to take care of other agent needs like food, health, education etc which won't leave excess resources to be channeled towards BTC.
1155  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you manage your money on gambling sites. on: September 22, 2023, 04:43:51 PM
I've been following a few gambling channels on Twitter and Telegram, and whenever they share a screenshot of a bet slip or winning ticket, they occasionally also include the balance of their wallet. I've seen this happen several times, which made me wonder why they don't choose to withdraw their winnings instead of storing them in their gambling site wallet.
When it comes to social media, don't believe everything you see there..we have people are are paid to do that or rather play with funds from the gambling platform to try create that people of saying high rollers are welcome.

Besides, people who play with real funds that they have worked for themselves usually hide such balances to avoid critics of all walks.

I’d like to know everyone’s opinion on which way is better and which one do you practice in managing your funds on gambling sites.
Like you have pointed out,only leave funds on a gambling platform that you will be playing with in the shortrun and not using these platforms as a wallet which is risk especially knowing that these guys usually don't take the blame!

This legal battle keeps getting interesting.
Nn the first place why did SEC not only sue Binance but included CZ the proprietor himself in the lawsuit??? Thought Binance is an LLC which limits liability and the like and should protect CZ legally 🤔

Whatever is going on, hope this doesn't drag on for a long time as this has the potential to bring down the markets If Binance is thrown under the bus with this lawsuit...though a win means green markets to follow...

1158  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin miners energy usage has exceeded 50%, where is Elon? on: September 22, 2023, 05:13:15 AM
As much as Elon is advocating for cleaner green energy from the crypto energy, this isn't only about bitcoin getting onboard but looking at the use of sustainable energy so that the next generation doesn't suffer because the damage to our environment is extensive.

And btw, this carbon emissions/sustainable energy fight is one sided...Elon Musk's EVs are the culprits for this knowing very well electricity generation has a Carbon footprint trail and with increased production and use of these vehicles means more damage done to our environment and the man needs to walk the talk.

Otherwise, Elon being the type that loves the controversy am pretty sure he will oblige to accept BTC payments with his companies.
1159  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: My decision on bitcoin on: September 21, 2023, 06:12:05 PM
I recently created a post asking if I should buy bitcoin now or wait for the dip, and majority of the response I got from the post, advised that I should buy now rather than waiting for the dip due to its volatile nature, and I'm satisfied with this response and I'm willing to bear the risk.
Great choice mate 👍  Cool

Just to reinforce the reason behind why many are opting you buy now is simply because BTC price forecasts says price expected to hit $100k + in the near future and others say price could rise as high as a million which makes current price of BTC discounted and everyone needs to be taking advantage of the price we seeing as it might "never" come this low especially with the BTC spot ETF in the pipeline and not forgetting the halving.

Reason for all these questioning, I have a dream of becoming a long term bitcoin holder but, dreams aren't achieved with words alone, an action is needed for the start up, so I have decided to sell one of my less used phone for the purpose of buying bitcoin.
I'm really eager to purchase my first bitcoin in satoshi.
A journey of a thousand miles starts with the first step, and that first step is buying any amount of btc and then hodl..good luck.
1160  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What Do you think Satoshi Would Think About Today's Bitcoin? on: September 21, 2023, 05:13:49 PM
As much as bitcoin is the brain child of Satoshi, I don't think any developments of the coin are a solo decision, and whatever coin we have today has gone through a consensus that represents the majority and they too have a limit to how far they can go, because any big changes or a hard fork done on bitcoin means we could have something...probably an altcoin.

All in all, bitcoin has never been perfect and along the way its had the opportunity to get some cosmetic upgrades that has made it better and Satoshi himself wouldn't be mad about them  Roll Eyes

- Many of it's adapters today don't even use it as a currency or store of value, they use it as a speculative derivative. You can look at this by looking at spot and futures volumes. Adapters pre-2020 know more about Bitcoin's motive, fundementals and mission where after 2020 the market is filled with idiot perma-bulls.

What are your thoughts?
People don't put their money where they can't make money and having bitcoin has a currency or store of value isn't fun anymore, people want more hence the cry for Bitcoin ETFs which is a platform to make more money and get bitcoins price going up as a by product...so it's not about being the OG of BTC, sometimes let's move with time.
