Depends on what you feed your mind with. If you are sheep (biblical sheep) It's very likely that things you hear, watch, and see in the world will make you depressed, unless you enjoy hearing, watching & seeing the evil.   
So, you either need to stop feeding your self with things from the world or start tolerating things the world tolerate,meaning you accept to be like them. It doesn't end there if you choose the latter, because you will likely be made to accept more wickedness in the future in order to be "ok".   They seem to update/increase in evil and get others to upgrade with them to be like the rest of the society. It's a system ruled by a very wicked entity who will strive to make those who depend on the system he creates to be like him.
The Only option for Sheep is to get saved from the system by CHIEF SHEPARD, (an invisible and unbelievablly Powerful LORD called JESUS) and never look back.

The wicked could also easily get depressed when they are defeated by superior Power that is way beyond them ,but I'm more concerned for the sheep Lost in the World

 Intersting
I wonder how feasible this is considerig other things it may  likely  try to bypass to serve  any kind  of ads without restrictions.Does it bypass fair rules used to regulate ad companies?  And Can users who abuse their Anonimity with the service be held accountable? How easily can they be held accountable? I wonder how safe it will be if you can bypass lots of things without accountability

I think it's better to only buy when there's significant dip, so you can be busy with other important things in your life and don't get too attached to the price . And i would suggest you buy with what you can afford to risk and not to sell unnecessarily ,so we can have lots of regular people scooping up the dips from gamblers and impatient people. You earn in whatever direction the market goes if you know what you're doing.
1604  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Metaverse: Concept of A Virtual Reality on: June 24, 2021, 03:08:26 PM
What is Metaverse?

In 1992, the famous American science fiction writer Neal Stephenson wrote “Snow Crash”, and described a network world, called the Metaverse, which was parallel to the real world. All the people in the real world have a network identity (Avatar) in their meta world and can communicate with each other and control their own wealth, as illustrated in Ready Player One.

Simply put, the Metaverse is a bridge between the real world and the virtual world. This is achieved usually with VR and AR technology to expand the vision, sound, and touch from the real world by integrating digital objects into the physical world. The technology also brought in the real-world experiences involving trading, production, finance, and entertainment to form a truly immersive virtual world.

On a side note, “Avatar” and “Metaverse” are both derived from this book. Today, the Metaverse has become the Internet’s new form which is the next stage after realizing virtual reality. It now appears to be able to combine blockchains and NFTs to become a formidable force.

View the full article

I guess what he was describing is typical Internet ,which could be the right base Network for other serious global Network like things he described. However,its centralization makes it not very appropriate base Network for building well decentralized and safe international Networks that enable users truly control and use their wealth. But decentralized network will work really well at local levels even without the internet.

Interesting.
I hope President isn't driven by emotion, but for good reason. I don't see why Bitcoin cannot work side by side with Fiat currencies. He could maybe have trustworthy developers create a safe National platform where citizens and others can safely keep both Bitcoin and fiat in decentralized manner... When international transfer needs to be done,you could transfer funds from the stablecoin/fiat to Bitcoin and then carry-out the transfer.This could be designed to happen automatically and effortlessly

I hope the transfer is as anonymous as possible so insecure cyber gangs do not try to intentionally mess up the price of Bitcoin or refuse to confirm the transaction when they notice incoming transfer from "enemy".
This is why it's important to keep promoting the good ideal of Bitcoin. It will make forming organized gang-like cartels difficult on the Network

1606  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What would the ideal cryptocurrency ecosystem be like? on: June 24, 2021, 10:54:58 AM
We know, that nowadays many blockchain platforms with their respective coins are competing to be number one in the cryptocurrency space.
There are people who agree with Ethereum and there are also those who agree with Binance as one of the best as a place to create smart contracts (for example).

Apart from these two platforms and parameters, do you all agree if someone leads an ecosystem related to the world of blockchain and cryptocurrencies?

What should the ideal world be like?

FYI: Google is the ruler of the internet, and there are people who agree with what he is doing, but there are also those who don't.



Very interesting question.

In the world where no one can be trusted, everyone should be bounded by good/right/fair Rules and the rules become the ruler. You'll need good judges/leaders that follow the good rules and are able to guide others based on the rules. Everyone in the network will have copies of the rules and use that to put the leaders in checks if they try to transgress. In truly decentralized network ,the leader will always be held accountable once the law is broken. And leaders are selected/elected based on merit.
You can always randomize(and also Anonimize) the leaders to keep them safe to make things hard for corrupt people or crooks to influence
1607  Economy / Economics / Re: Real Inflation only happens when Central Banks print High Denominated Notes? on: June 24, 2021, 10:28:50 AM
I guess the main reason for the higher denomination note is to reduce the amount of notes in circulation. So instead of bank giving a customer $10,000 in multiple notes (10,000 pieces of  $1 notes)  for example, the bank simply give the customer a single $10,000 note.   That could actually make the owner of the note to spend it easily compared to having the note in many pieces. There are several factors that can actually contribute to inflation but the major one is printing more money than is required and using the money mainly for consumption.  If you could print alot of money and use it mostly for producing basic goods(good ones) that can easily be replicated especially in agriculture, you could easily reduce inflation if the money is distributed based on merit(true merit... not the kind of merits we see around on the internet,lol)

 I however don't think it's good idea use money printed in this manner for scarce resources,unless the printer is a saint and knows what he/she is doing


In regards to the "Starving kids", blame it on the Fiat system, assuming the country kids are actually "starving" . You may need some time to check out the definition of the word "starving" and see if it fits in the context of that part of your post

Well ,if you understand how naturally interconnected the world is, you will be extreme carefully provoking even a tree into fear or anger.
There are people who can't sleep well without making other creatures especially humans to misbehave or be sad. They are usually satan's tools to provoke a change or tools for creating disorderliness in the interconnected system.
There are times the CREATOR just allow human suffer from the disorderliness they create (or strongly want to create) after humans have rejected HIS warning and become too hardened.
1609  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you Smoke? on: June 24, 2021, 09:13:08 AM
What do you think are the long term consequences of smoking Cigg or Weed.

Other than cancer.


I sometimes wonder what actually causes the cancer... could it be smoking toxic chemicals that cause cancer or merely sniffing/injesting any kind  smoke regularly/occasionally into your internal body  especially the lungs. Our great grand parents cooked alot with firewood , sniffed in alot of smokes from the fire,yet they lived long.So, maybe it's toxic chemicals/substance (especially the man-made ones) inside the things they smoke that cause problem like cancer.   I would avoid cigarettes because of possiblity of them having toxic chemicals/substances.  


I regards to whether i smoke or not, i actually don't, but I wouldn't encourage you to stop those who the smokes don't harm to stop . The risk has to be zero-little to the smoker,and the smoke should be beneficial to them.
1610  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Youtube channels and influencers are currupt like the Mexican police on: June 23, 2021, 06:15:16 PM
There are bad police in any part of the World. If you expose other places that seem to have good cops to thesme condition that contributed to the kind of corruption , they could easily get corrupted especially if most are tired or afraid of reporting the corruption because entities at the top often ignore or call the reporters things like conspiracy theorist even without throroughly investigating the case.

YouTube should encourage people to report things like that and make sure every reported case is taken seriously. I believe that will greatly encourage people to report scams and itll became difficult for scammers to thrive there
1611  Economy / Economics / Re: INPUT =OUTPUT (REAL LIFE EVALUATION) on: June 23, 2021, 05:22:22 PM
It really depends on demand and supply. There will be much competition In a place where you have lots of people doing thesame business, but those that are providing better services will likely earn more and thrive in the business. ... doesn't really matter how small or large the business is.
Better to ask business owners to provide unique and better services to attract customers,or they should probably look for different businesses to try if there are lots of people doing thesame business they prefer to do ... When you have plenty of people doing the same business and there aren't sufficient demand for the service the business provides, the business owners will struggle to sell unless they offer better services that customers can afford.
Not a good idea to discourage people from working hard even when they earn sufficiently from the hard work...And don't make them feel like they are working too hard...I have noticed that what may look too hard to a person maybe little work to others until you start making the person feel like people don't need to work that hard to earn a living , then this could start encouraging laziness and even making City jobs more attractive even though lots of them make you live sedentary lifestyle and too dependent
1612  Other / Off-topic / Re: What's the painless way to leave this world is? on: June 23, 2021, 10:45:16 AM
Why take those routes when your real you or your spirit will almost immediately end up in a painful hell.
I actually prefer to have people chop off the "ball top" of my body (for doing what is right/good) when my time to leave this world comes. Feels painless to me ,and by GOD's grace i will almost immediately end up in Place of Everlasting Joy.

*By the way, the "ball top" method is probably not what my CREATOR destined for me, so I prefer HIS own Will be done when the time to leave comes
1613  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: "Coins That Use POW or POS are Screwed" Opinions? on: June 23, 2021, 10:08:45 AM
I don't think PoW (which is actually a real consensus mechanism) will be so much affected long-term if the incentive model includes any problem solve by nodes that does not compromise on decentralisation/security ... and it should be completely merit based. The current pow model doesn't seem to do this . I don't see why participants shouldn't be rewarded (not necessarily  financial reward) for being consistently honest and running their nodes properly and consistently. There are many other things to reward to help keep a Network decentralized,secure, efficient, fast, Fair, etc
By the way,the typical PoS is fundamentally flawed,so i can't fit it properly in my model without compromising on decentralization
1614  Economy / Economics / Re: FBI aims to keep valuables, $86M cash confiscated in safe deposit store raid on: June 23, 2021, 09:35:38 AM
Well, Anonimity and Transparency would work well in things like . Anonymity Rights of innocent depositors can't be taken away because of criminal depositors otherwise tyrants or "bad actors" could use this as an opportunity to flood that deposit boxes with valuable of criminals in order to de-anonymize the innocent and probably completely take away the Anonimty Rght.

The right Level of transparency (like we have in true crypto currency) should help the Security agency track and trace criminal activities,then the agency could bargain with the business owners to have some sort of encrypted private information of the criminals de-anonimised (without de-anonimizing the innocent) and properly investigated
1615  Other / Off-topic / Re: What is the dark web? on: June 23, 2021, 08:54:02 AM
The dark web is where people can buy illegal drugs and firearms. It's also dotted with sites that specialize in illicit pornography, including child pornography. It's a part of the internet that you can't find with traditional search engines such as Google. Because it is hidden..
Lol don't just specified the negative part of darkweb because there are also good use of the area like how we use our traditional browser.

though it has been used and abused by criminals and bad elements , but remember that even in regular browser there are still drugs and firearms buying and selling.

If you invent something to fight or escape evil, you'll need to make the invention difficult for evil to thrive on it otherwise the evil you are trying to fight with your invention will use it against you and others... then you end up creating More problems and probably solving little to no problem.
1616  Economy / Economics / Re: Is money the root of all evil as the poor to thinks? on: June 18, 2021, 04:35:34 PM
It's actually the "Love of Money" that is the root of all evil. I forgot to correct you on that.
If it makes you happy, you will love it and desire it more.. . More like being addicted to something that makes you happy, which could make you go to any length to have more of it.


For the love of money is a root of all
kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

I certainly can't say. They all seem to love me differently when I exhibit certain characters. It's difficult for humans to love unconditionally unless they have been saved and no longer live in darkness.
1618  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: ⚽Ronaldo / Coca-Cola/ Bitcoin ₿ on: June 18, 2021, 03:41:29 PM
Ronaldo gets paid a lot of money in sponsorship. He probably thought that nobody has paid him to promote Coca Cola so why should he look like he’s advertising it for free. I wish Ronaldo would speak positively about bitcoin or something, it’d send the price up.
coca cola is number one beverage giants in the world, they sponsored in euro 2020,
cristiano ronaldo is start player and most popular football celebrity in the world.
i don't think he opposes coca cola for didn't get paid from coca cola.
coca cola is harmful for human health so that he preferred drinking water in place of coca cola.
I am guessing he, Ronaldo didn't know this when he was promoting Coca-cola back then right? All of them are the same, something is good once they are getting paid for it and no longer want to support it when it's not. We understand that Ronaldo by his status now has a lot of money and probably doesn't really drink coca-cola but he could have simply just left the drinks where they were placed and not also make comments after moving them. At the end of the day, all prices will return to the natural mode regardless of who is manipulating what.



I think he did what a responsible person would do when he realize that what he's doing isn't good for fans watching him allover the World. It's also possible he did that because the drink makes him look too common/inferior... Just hope the former was actually reason he did that. Will definitely increase my respect for him
1619  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and The Countercyclical Fiscal Policy on: June 18, 2021, 03:23:48 PM
How would a government handle the "Countercyclical Fiscal Policy" if it uses gold or other scarce precious metal as money? I guess, it either honestly buy more gold to stimulate the economy or deceptively print fake gold out of nothing (more plunking money from trees) to stimulate the economy. If the former is the answer then I would suggest the government d thesame with Bitcoin - buy loads of Bitcoin, split the coins into many part and use that to stimulate the economy.
1620  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: NFT hype is over, next hype please on: June 18, 2021, 11:00:15 AM
That was a pretty short hype, but you can state that the NFT hype is over. This can be measured most clearly by the prices for NFT projects and NFT tokens. If you take Chilliz, for example, the price has collapsed by 75% from the high. In comparison, Bitcoin is currently valued around 45% lower from its high.

NFT hype is over, what do you think will be the next hype to prepare for?
Well, it’s now like a regular thing for community; every new idea that comes into the market gets hyped and after that, they all fade and people stop investing and talking about them again.

Well, it’s not like it is completely gone, they are still going to be function, but they are now going to be at the level where they are meant to be. It is a normal thing for new things to get hyped and the hype is what results to the very high value they get. When the hype is over, they fall to the real value that they are supposed to be at. It’s the same thing that happened other ideas that came before NFT.


Seems the financial aspect created much of the hype. There wasn't too many publicity about the technology and its fundamentals. That would have been more existing for people who know what they are here (crypto space) for... or people who are here for the technology and ideals. Same thing I expect people to be talking about DeFi .  Seems they are more fixated on the financial part.
