Yes it is, we cannot necessarily say other people are wrong when they do not invest in what we invest in, and they also cannot say that what we do in investing in bitcoin is wrong, and indeed it is based on what we believe and what we understand.
Yes, of course we can't just judge someone as wrong if they have different views and don't believe in the investments we make. It's true that everyone has their own choice and everyone has their own experience of the investment they have made.
The most important point is that they or we use the money we have to invest in something we believe in, that we understand the risks and how the investment works and as long as we are also comfortable and have been able to or have had good profits from what we invest, whether it's gold, Bitcoin, stocks or real estate.
For me all investments are good and they will all be beneficial for us, the most important thing is that we have a good overall understanding of the investments we make.

Analyzing crypto in your own language will be very easy so if you are new to crypto or coming from this forum be sure to be more active on discussion boards in your own language.
Yes, I do agree with this. Learning and being more active in the local board for someone who is joining this forum for the first time and doesn't have enough knowledge and if they have problems understanding the language will really help beginners to adapt to this forum more quickly and so they understand more and get to know developments about crypto in accordance with a language that is easy for them to understand, namely their respective national languages.
But keep in mind that if beginners are only active and contributing continuously to the local board, I think they will never develop and will never gain more knowledge, they must also follow and add to their insights about crypto developments from various points of view including from general/global threads in order to have a broader and more complete understanding and knowledge. For the problem of a lack of understanding of English, which is an international language in my opinion it shouldn't be a thing that prevents them from being active and contributing to global threads because they can use an automatic translator at any time in the device browser they have.

Actually i agree, I don't think there is a problem in giving Bitcoin a choice as one of the payment options that we offer to service workers like that.
But I don't think we can apply this and we do it anywhere because if it's in a place that still considers Bitcoin to be illegal then it's too risky for us and the people we give it to.
Apart from that, we actually have to be careful about offering Bitcoin to just anyone because we are afraid that they will have malicious intentions towards us and will threaten ourselves after they find out we are Bitcoin adopters.
Then this cannot be done by everyone because we know for ourselves that some people seem to prefer to collect and hold their Bitcoins compared to using them as a transaction tool, right?.
4  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A creative way to introduce BTC to newcomers on: August 25, 2023, 09:26:58 PM
I thought the video you made was very interesting and I was surprised that it was a drawing on your wall. At first I thought you were drawing all that on a big canvas but at the end of the video I was surprised that your drawing medium was actually a wall.
Even though it is short video if it is to introduce new users, I think your video can be used as a reference to show newcomers who want to know some of the history of Bitcoin.
You explain some of the advantages that Bitcoin has but unfortunately I feel incomplete without a detailed explanation of these points. However, I admit that overall the presentation of your images and the way you video are really great.
5  Economy / Economics / Re: Financial education or 1million dollars on: August 24, 2023, 11:33:18 PM
Although financial education is important but financial education without money will earn you nothing other than poverty. It's highly better one get the money and use part of it to acquire financial knowledge and use the remaining one for business after one have acquired the financial knowledge.
It depends on the interests and nature of the person actually. Someone who has financial education is likely to be more likely to be able to use the knowledge they have to earn a lot of money, it does not mean that someone who has financial education without having money will simply make someone poor.
But I think it's likely that right now most people would be more tempted to have a million dollars to own than to have a financial education.
If that were me, of course I would use it to choose the 1 million dollars and with that money I would upgrade my financial education.
6  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Current scare affect the decision making of starters. on: August 24, 2023, 10:27:30 PM
Speaking in the context of a market moving in a negative direction, it is necessary to consider all decisions before regret arises when the market starts moving in a positive direction. Patience needs to be formed in beginners when facing a market that is fluctuating downwards, they must be able to control their emotions in order to save the value of their assets.
Actually sometimes I think it's okay if a beginner makes the wrong decision when they're just starting out because they panic and don't have patience. Things like that are a natural thing in my opinion, because some beginners sometimes don't have a mentor and enough knowledge to direct them to make the right decision when they first join.
I think the most important thing for beginners is not to give up easily because at the beginning they made some wrong decisions because of their limited knowledge and mentality. Some beginners, in my opinion need valuable experience and bitter lessons to be able to make or shape their readiness in this highly volatile market.

The right decision will bring big profits, when the market is moving in a negative direction
Yes it's true about the right decisions will indeed bring big profits, but sometimes even the wrong decisions can also provide valuable experience for them to be better able to make the right decisions in the future.
7  Economy / Economics / Re: Which problem will you choose to solve? on: August 23, 2023, 10:54:08 PM
The word "Problem" is broad and can mean different thing to different persons at a given period, just as it could mean financial for those in needs, health challenge for the sick and emotional needs for those in need of advice. But on the contrary, if i'm to be in such a position to help, i will go for the poor, simply because they have no one to help them, and by doing so will really mean alot to the poor.
Yes, you are absolutely right, I also feel that the context of the sentence "problem" is still too general and does not have a specific purpose or a specific meaning. In fact, both rich people and poor people of course still need someone's help. But I think the percentage level of poor people is certainly far more in need of help than rich people because of their "powerlessness".
Rich people certainly have the perception that it will be more effective and efficient to use the services of experts to solve a problem they are facing, in contrast to the poor who do not have the capacity to use the services of experts to deal with the problems they are experiencing.
In my opinion, helping the poor people may indeed feel more meaningful when it comes to their "powerlessness" problem. But it won't be easy and probably won't fully help them completely if we also don't have the capacity to help them with their "problems".

Thank you for sharing your information and knowledge OP and I think some of the points you convey are true, but believe me these are just a few points that only refer theoretically and sometimes when we really get into trading we won't be able to easily control ourselves and think clearly to follow the advice. As you have said and conveyed because everyone has different influence factors and conditions.
As other members have said, the most important thing is that we really understand and know how to trade and find strategies that are suitable and comfortable for us to use. If we are tired or have a lot of thoughts, don't let us trade but we have to rest. If you experience a loss, don't give up easily and have to evaluate what went wrong after that let experience guide us to be better.
9  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If Bitcoin is legalized, a dream of mine would come true on: August 23, 2023, 09:34:12 PM
But my dreams will remain dreams because Bitcoin will never be legalized by the government in my country.
I don't really know about the current state of acceptance of Bitcoins in your country in Bangladesh, but I have read some articles and mentioned that Bangladesh has not accepted Bitcoins for some reason and still considers owning Bitcoins to be an illegal activity.
Maybe you really can't do anything related to government regulations in your country. But in my opinion, don't ever think that in your country Bitcoin will never be accepted and legalized. Bitcoin and cryptocurrency are progress or an innovation that cannot be avoided.
I think that in the end a country must want and must have a way to regulate and regulate all cryptocurrencies because as time goes on more and more people in your country are interested in and even own and use crypto. So the government like it or not must have a way to be able to control the activities of its citizens.
10  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Do you think privacy is important for a beginner? on: August 22, 2023, 11:00:50 PM
People are divided on this. Some think privacy is really important and should be guarded by rules and society. But there are others who don't really mind and think privacy isn't a big deal. So, I created thread to see what everyone thinks about privacy.
I think for me in the digital world privacy and remaining anonymous is of utmost importance thing. I am one of those people who believe that privacy is very important because in my opinion people who value privacy are people who respect themselves and all the efforts they make.
I dont know how are they or the people who don't really mind or think that privacy is something that is not so important thing. I think they are people who have never felt their personal information was misused for negative interests or even they have never experienced any loss as a result of their personal information being spread either intentionally or unintentionally.
11  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Has Bitcoin Helped Create Big Changes In Your Life? on: August 22, 2023, 10:32:57 PM
Please do not assume I am asking if "you got really rich from BTC". For example, has Bitcoin/Crypto changed the way you shop, or earn weekly income? Has BTC helped you feel more optimistic and excited about the future? etc. I am getting started late compared to many others, but I see many great days ahead. Thanks for being here at the forum!

Has Bitcoin Helped Create Big Changes In Your Life?
Hi OP, welcomes to this forum. First, don't ever regret too much because you feel like you're starting late than other people, because it's better to be late and finally realize than not at all, right?. You are not really late and you can take advantage of this forum to catch up with you because in my opinion this forum is the most effective education to get to know about Bitcoin and crypto.
Yes, indirectly I feel that I have experienced a big change in my life after getting to know Bitcoin like increasing my finances. Apart from that, the most important thing is that I have really changed my point of view about how to manage my finances or income properly and correctly and there are many more other things that I got actually after getting to know about Bitcoin. I hope that you will also soon experience the impact of positive change on yourself OP.
12  Economy / Economics / Re: How to avoid over expenses and have discipline on: August 21, 2023, 08:36:01 PM
5. Set a budget
            Allocate a limit on expenses, know all areas of expenses from food, rent, electricity, water, shopping and other things related to spending. Once you set all of your spending limits, make sure to follow them and do it because everything will be ignored if you don't do it.
For me this point is one of the basic or most important things we have to do to overcome excessive spending, namely by setting a budget for our needs or expenses.
Unfortunately, in my opinion this is sometimes very trivial for some people because maybe they feel it will make it difficult for themselves because they have to make detailed notes, even though if we don't make a record of our spending budget then our money will definitely run out quickly because we don't have clear goals obviously to spend the money or income that we have.
In my opinion, by making clear and detailed budget allocations, we can actually make it easier for ourselves to know and control our expenses, and we can control overly consumptive lifestyle desires, or we can say we buy things we don't really need.
13  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Don't Rush Whenever Posting: Cross Check and Edit before Hitting the post Button on: August 21, 2023, 07:27:33 PM
I observed most forum users access the forum and make post using phone. When typing with phone and the phone is in dictionary mode, it guess and change typed words easily. During the process, words typed may be changed without the you knowing about it. This make it good for one to cross- check your write- up before posting.
Yes you're right, if a user uses a smartphone to make a post, maybe it will also affect the posts they make, such as being a bit messy in format and errors in grammar because of the limited view on a smartphone. It's different when we do it on a computer or laptop, so it's more flexible than viewpoints and easy to type, edit and check back on our posts.
Then one of the other inhibiting factors is that these users are not people who usually use English as their dominant or main language. They only rely on google translate to translate from their local language and sometimes the translation is a bit messy and doesn't fit.
And rush is also one of the problems that can make the posts we provide not conveyed properly. If it turns out that our post has something wrong, then we can still edit it, but as long as we don't always making mistakes that's normal.
One more thing, if there is someone who tries to remind us to correct our mistakes, we should not think that they are hostile to us, but think that it is a criticism that we receive.
14  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can everyone in the world have bitcoin. on: August 21, 2023, 06:40:38 PM
My question is that is it possible for everyone to have bitcoin with the number of limited supply of bitcoin ?
Your question actually I think multiperception. Depending on which point of view someone will catch your question.
If the meaning of your question is only related to "numbers/mathematics/amounts" and apart from other factors that affect the adoption of Bitcoin then of course the answer is that it is possible for everyone to have Bitcoin even if the supply is limited or even a little, because I think that "number/mathematics/amounts" is definite things and every number regardless of the amount of course can still be divided.
But if you have linked it to the factors that influence Bitcoin adoption, then the answer is of course that not everyone can have Bitcoin because of various internal and external factors for each individual.
Internal factors I mean such as individuals' desires, interests, beliefs and knowledge of Bitcoin. While external factors I mean such as financial conditions, technological advances and the internet and government regulations regarding Bitcoin in their respective countries.
15  Economy / Economics / Re: Am I a bad person if I manage to avoid taxes? (Hypothetical question) on: August 20, 2023, 11:50:26 PM
Yes, the person is a bad person according to our law which it can lead that person to spend some months in the prison, because that is the sources of the government income in every countries in the world. I don't think, is all government that used the taxes income to finance their family or their personal business, because there is a law that governed that aspect and if any administration found guilty of corruption in that area they will be punish for such attitude, because the taxes income belong to the people in that land which we called government. If you fail to pay your taxes as a citizen, I think it will be difficult for you to enjoy the benefits of your country because you will not have full right to enter some places in the country.
Are you that foolish to think laws and governments work perfectly? You stated textbook and idealized concepts, but reality can and often is very different. Laws are cultural structures produced by authority, and power can manipulate them.

You cite corrupt administration penalty, but how often has justice been served? Bureaucracy and red tape protect powerful people. Thus, although a common man pays taxes and fears the consequences of evasion, those with power and influence may bend the rules to their whim.

And that not paying taxes deprives the government of a benefit? Please note that benefits are typically taken before they reach the public. In a dog-eat-dog world, your idealistic beliefs are wonderful but tragically foolish.
Don't be like that, I think we all also can't blame Sebas.tian for having such a perception and expressing an opinion like that because what he said was actually what should have happened, right?.
But ironically, I more agree with what you said, because what you said is the reality that occurs in almost all over the world, it is true that the system of law and government is not always perfect and not always really run according to the rules they make. Anywhere, the system of laws and regulations may be subject to and can be manipulated by a group of people in power.
16  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: YOU ARE LUCKY TO BE IN THIS FORUM on: August 20, 2023, 11:12:11 PM
Indeed, a lot of information have been revealed in various sections of this forum, and they are all available for free. In addition, members of this forum are ever willing and ready to answer any question, irrespective of how funny it may sound... they do this with joy and all you need is just ask.
You're right and it's true that I think this forum is complete and perfect for beginners who want to get to know better and more about the world of cryptocurrency, in this forum beginners can not only add to the number of references they read about trading, how to invest and basic knowledge about other crypto which is more detailed, not only that but all of us are not just passive readers but we can also be active to take part in various kinds of discussions and ask what we don't understand and it's true that all of this is obtained for free.
I think this forum is a very efficient educational medium for educating someone so they are literate about developments around crypto, besides that what I like about this forum is that it allows us to find out the latest crypto news around the world. Even if we can contribute actively and follow the rules here and meet several conditions then we can also get additional income from various services in this forum.
17  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What should we see bitcoin as? on: August 19, 2023, 09:39:08 PM
Bitcoin as a source of income or as an investment plan, which is better?
Of course I think both are equally good options or ideas. But I think it's the same thing, I mean it's the same in terms of the goal is you basically adopt Bitcoin and I think these two things could be sustainable.
"Sustainable" I mean if the work you do will pay you in Bitcoin then that's great because you can keep it at the same time for long term investing right?, but we know that not a lot of work is paid in Bitcoin.
But beforehand make sure that the job is a side job that you do because basically you also need a job that has a source of fiat income to meet or buy your daily needs. Because instead of having to spend your Bitcoin income to meet your daily needs, it's better to collect it for investment.
18  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How can we help to Bitcoin education? on: August 19, 2023, 08:49:58 PM
If I will do that it should be in the classroom which has more youths.
Students should be taught financial literacy first before jumping off to bitcoin knowledge. Financial literacy is like a taboo in grade schools, or even in high schools to some, i don't know why it's not taught there (at least in my country). It should be the very first thing people should be aware of. Because learning bitcoin (finance part, not on technology part) will be useless or confusing to those students who will hear it first, it will be like a magic to them.
Elementary school is not a suitable place to teach financial literacy in my opinion. I don't know, but I think every country must have lessons about the economy, right? Doesn't that include the basis of financial literacy as well.
Knowledge of Bitcoin does not have to be included in an educational curriculum in a country because in my opinion it is not a matter of basic urgency that children or students must know and master.
In my opinion, if someone really has to apply or teach literacy, especially about Bitcoin it might be more suitable to be taught at universities because universities are more likely to aim for students to hone a more critical mindset, one of which is towards technological developments such as Bitcoin.
But this goes back to a country, whether there is education about Bitcoin or not it all depends on the rules and regulations of each country.
19  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Bitcoin Instead of Gold? on: August 19, 2023, 08:21:01 PM
So, Why Bitcoin Instead of Gold for you?
If you want to compare maybe I don't think we need to compare because it's better of course to choose to have both than just one between Bitcoin and Gold, right? It seems to me that Gold and Bitcoin both have a hedge against economic issues like inflation.
But if we talk about Bitcoin better than Gold, I think it's because we know that Bitcoin is easier and more flexible because it's easy to move, easy to store, hard to counterfeit, transaction fees tend to be low and we don't need a third party or government intervention for our ownership status.
Even though the volatility of Gold tends to be stable than Bitcoin and Gold has an unquestionable reputation because it has been proven and tested for several centuries but in my opinion Bitcoin offers more ease of access than Gold.
20  Economy / Economics / Re: It ain't meant to be easy on: August 18, 2023, 07:30:38 PM
We are often faced with unforeseen challenges and situations, and how we respond to them can determine our success or failure.
I agree with your opinion that how we respond to a problem will determine our failure or success. Everyone has different conditions and everyone experiences different trials, problems and obstacles too.
But in essence, all of them have the same way even though everyone's conditions are different and the problems they face are also different, namely by not giving up easily to face the problems that are coming to us.
Most people will feel that they give up easily if they fail to overcome or go through the problems they face because they do not want to evaluate themselves or evaluate the failure factors they experience.
Even though we as humans are endowed with brains for us to think and to overcome various problems in this life, most of us tend to be lazy to think and to develop ourselves and then just give up.
