What is life without law, how would the society be like without  law. Would society still exist, take a look at all lawless act committed  by individuals in the society, robberies, killings , corruption and so many bad act. Even with laws all this atrocities are being done  as if there's no law. people are not been scared to commit crime in the society.  They do not care or think of the consequences or result of the crime been committed. People enjoy lawlessness. How would this world be without laws , can it exist.

As the title says, please share your costly lesson about cryptocurrency. So others users could take a lesson from your story and they would get the advantage of it without losing anything.

When we learn a lesson, most of the time we lose something. And there are a few losing stories where we lost a lot and that's the reason why I consider this kind of lesson ad a costly lesson. I had shared previously my story, I will just remind it shortly.

In 2017 I had almost 1.5BTC and I hadn't sold even Bitcoin was around $19K above. So we know the Bitcoin dump story. Since Bitcoin was dumped too much I wondered to increase portfolio by trading or holding alts. So I just choose a few shitcoin. Some of them were delisted from the exchange, so I moved all-in single shitcoin. Sadly that's shitcoin is totally useless. Perhaps it's worth $1K in the current market. So it was a costly lesson for me. Don't choose a shitcoin for investing purposes. Just invest in Bitcoin and hold it. You will never regret it at all.

What is your costly lesson?

The cryptocurrency industry started with the launch of Bitcoin in 2009 and then flourished in the following years with various assets and blockchain-based solutions. According to Stephen Stonberg, CEO of Bittrex Global, this is no longer in its infancy.
“I think we’re already past the stage of crypto early adoption,” Stonberg told Cointelegraph adding:
“Crypto has now gone mainstream. We have double-digit percentage adoption in both developed and developing countries. We even have Bitcoin adopted as legal tender in a country and many other countries are considering adopting Bitcoin as legal tender.”
Bitcoin has also become a very common investment, as a number of large companies such as Microstrategy have invested in these assets.

my first post on this forum I decided to make it here since Bitcoin is what I want to concentrate on going forward, I discovered this site through a google search in my quest to get answers to some questions about Bitcoin. And am amazed at how rich in information this forum is I have found almost 50% answers within my short period on this forum all thanks to the members who have been here before me.
I have a very simple question on Bitcoin:
What are the principal technical skills a bitcoin lover needs to have if I want to buy a large amount of Bitcoin and hold it for long-term purposes?

For the few months I have been in this forum, I discovered without being told that one really need some digital skills to remain effective and relevant here on the long run. Though, only the knowledge of cryptocurrencies is enough. But someone like me, I am not well knowledgeable about cryptocurrencies, which I know this forum will educate me and has been doing.

When I looked at the service thread, I saw people offering different services of avatar design, signature design, software design etc.

Apart from that, I saw CryptopreneurBrainboss and others managing campaigns and also have own services. I saw DdmrDdmr, LoyceV, Ratimov, Fillippone and others always posting data like number of merits earned, newbies first post, most merit awards, they talk about whitepaper and lots more. I keep wondering how they generate these information. I often wish to join the discussions, but they appear high technical to me . I like being successful in anything I do. Yes, I know success needs commitment and perseverance. Even the aforementioned names have been here for years, hence there enviable knowledge.

Please, is it to early/late for me to start somewhere? I am not that comfortable with only posting and contributing texually here. I need to solve technical problems.
Please, what are the basic steps I will take, what are the basic skills I need now that are not that financial intensive. Because I am still under the trauma and/or defeat of fraud/scam before I joined this forum.

I really need to be a positive energy in this forum in the future. I therefore have to create this thread to get started. I have enough time, apart from being here I don't have things that will take my time offline.

Thank you all.

Apart from the fact that BTC is the first that we all know ( there are actually few coins before BTC though ) this coin still take the lead on the battle front, whatever is going to trampled on crypto ( bad news or other ) they always point to BTC first, in fact BTC will keep taking the lead for years to come this is why I advice newbies who know too less about crypto but in haste to rather take the risk on BTC, why?

1. You can buy and decide to never look back, no one is changing BTC chain to other, it's not a smart contract project

2. The only coin that still stands it's ground on decentralisation

3. You will sleep peacefully at night 😂😂

BTC isn't the best around but it's the best for newbies who don't want to waste time, way better than hype on shitcoins

Crypto community has been recording a great rise in prices in the past few days. Everyone has been saying the bull run has come again until this night when the prices of all the major cryptocurrencies. started falling again. Can this price fall be a Dip or the dump.

The comparison of the value of etherum and bitcoin is very far, the price of one BTC is $ 45,975 and one Etherum is $ 3,152 (15 August 2021, 16:53:00). Etherum is far behind BTC, although Etherum’s current popularity is great, unfortunately Etherum still can’t be the first in the market. what do you think?

One of the undeniable features of BTC is price Volatility. When the market is green, a trader can run into massive profits. However, on a bad day ones Portfolio can varnish within hours. My question, is the price volatility of BTC more of an advantage than disadvantage to traders?

Given the nature of this digital currency, there are always conversations to be heard about not buying Bitcoin, as Bitcoin works outside the traditional banking system, so there are too many opponents to it. However, its design is such that no one can create a particular barrier to buying it. If you have access to the Internet and a Bitcoin wallet, you can invest in buying Bitcoin.

Many countries have struggled to obtain this digital currency. Bolivia, Thailand, Vietnam and Bangladesh, for example, are all trying to obtain Bitcoin. Even more advanced countries such as Russia, Japan, Australia and Venezuela have attempted to legally sell Bitcoin. But it is interesting to note that some countries, such as India and the United States, have not yet taken action in this regard and have not yet defined an official policy on such currencies.

In general, it should be said that bitcoin cannot be an obstacle, and this is one of the advantages of Bitcoin.

Afghanistan has WON the war against the Super Power USA and is now under freedom. USA has faced the worst defeat despite being a super power.
20 years of struggle has come to life now.

But International media is using the headlines "FALL OF Afghanistan " ?  Is it not the RISE OF Afghanistan

Have anyone think about this or am i the only one?

We want to get rid of the government off the faces of crypto space with the use of decentralisation and DeFi projects but this have been hurting us in every way, not wanting government involvement we end up hating centralised projects, oh yea we don't want anyone pipping in our lives and money but this have become the ultimate tool for evil people, even Scammers too


With defi projects scammers find it easier to get their jobs done, you don't have to show your face if you plan to introduce a Dex exchange or a DeFI anyways, it's easier to just say we are decentralized as an excuse 


The point is a world without the law is full of flawless crime than a world with the law but still corrupted, too much of everything is bad they say let's just stay in between, centralised projects and decentralized projects have to exists and in some areas regulation is needed

There are so many impatience people that missed important details sometimes, and lose the chance to make bigger profit because they didn’t analyze the market in the first place.
please be patient.Valuable coins need time to grow.
I am not mean that all altcoins are worth to wait.Just wait selectively.
One thing we must to remember that our goal is to make profit,so Patience should be based on your target price.

A few of my friends are struggling to get a job. They are in their mid-lives and the country they live in is particularly difficult to find a job at a certain age. Also, when some recovery was being noticed after the 2008 - 2012 crisis, COVID struck hard on an economy with a strong tourism sector. Meanwhile, I made some choices that landed me an stable and reasonably paid job that also leaves enough time to do other stuff that generates income or reduces my costs if I wish to do so.

What is the situation in your country and for yourself? Would you be able to land additional work for example working with crypto, selling stuff on-line, youtubing or something else?

For some time now I have constantly come across prominent individuals in society sponsoring hate speech against Bitcoin, most surprisedly These individuals either own traditional financial platforms such as banks and they are expected to be knowledgeable in investment and financial transactions and processes that seek to eliminate all the security challenges faced in the banking system through blockchain technology which give end-to-end encryption that guarantees a high level of security.

What are their motives could it be that they are just anti Bitcoin or attacking Bitcoin because it is a competitor that will soon push them out of business.

I always wonder why a lot of people fomo to buy a coin or token after the price has pumped. In this present bull run I've seen a lot of people FOMO and buy cryptos at a really high price and they quickly dump when they witness drawdowns.
Isn't that just hustling backwards?? Its almost like they are trying to loose money on purpose.
So i wonder why they FOMO to buy in the first place
