Hell yeah I'm impatient, is not my thing to be impatient but when it comes to this you can say that again. I'm only concern and some how making some comparison on how the market price was last year as of this same month and two months back this year, it was a bit flexible I mean in the market price but ever since the halving I thought it wouldn't be the way is it now, don't get me wrong on this.
I have never thought of Bitcoin falling in any way but my concern is how slow it has been and I know it will get to a much more higher price before the end of this year, so don't get me wrong I was only worried if this halving period is the cause of all that's happening, the high fee, the price having more negative effect more than the positive.
Maybe if you've got other things to do you'd probably be able to do something with your time instead of just waiting for bitcoin to turn into what you want it to become, things take time and even if you say that you're being impatient, what can that do besides infuriating you? There's no other way around it, just keep your calm and see this as an opportunity for you to buy more and accumulate more bitcoin.
2  Economy / Speculation / Re: 100 Push-Ups A Day Until Bitcoin Is $100K Challenge on: May 12, 2024, 07:47:50 AM
It's been 3 days I  did my pushups last...
Although, I was a little bit lazy

But at the same time I felt the 90 pushups I did the last time Tongue.
Today,I did just 60 pushups after 3 days rest, I know there's a decrease in magnitude just not taking it too hard on myself
My new Entry as at today
100k,promise444c5,45,1680,2024-05-11
Days like that is going to happen, let it linger but always have the will to do what you can when those moments happen to you, it's probably much healthier for you too to be lazy sometimes in your workout because your body is on a recovery and your body would probably thank you if you were to just take it easy from time to time. You don't want to get injured doing any of this don't you? If your answer is yes then it's best that you let that lazy feeling there, don't force yourself or you'll end up hating this habit sooner than you'd imagine.
3  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin 190K in 2024? on: May 12, 2024, 06:59:13 AM
Wouldn't put on that much hope that it will but with the amount of time that's still left in 2024, I think that a low $190k is still a possibility for bitcoin, there's also the fact that the -ber months are pretty good months for bitcoin so there's that, best thing to do now with this hype and ambitious dream price for bitcoin is to just do your thing, buy low and sell high if you can or just do your typical DCA routine, you won't have any problems doing all of that and if you're mindset in bitcoin investment is that you're in it for the long-term then you're probably going to be fine.
4  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you think Bitcoin can end poverty? In a nation today on: May 12, 2024, 06:27:48 AM
That would depend, is that person someone that was able to buy bitcoin back when it was still around a dollar apiece? If not then I don't think that bitcoin alone would make you get out of poverty, think of bitcoin as just one of your tools to create your own key to the success. That's not something that you should focus alone, that's going to make you miss out on the other opportunities that would otherwise made your journey out of poverty more easier. Bitcoin will help people but you got to remember that saying about teaching a man to fish, bitcoin is just one of the fish that you give to the man but it's not the way to get more fish.
5  Economy / Economics / Re: Only way might be economic slow down to save our envoirement on: May 12, 2024, 05:06:14 AM
I can totally agree with that, the industrialization should've ended a long time ago and it's probably in our best interest that we would see some changes to that, there's probably enough land stripped of it's natural resources to create something that the environment won't have to suffer, but we all know that when this kind of things happen, the profit of the companies benefiting from the destruction of the environment is going to do everything in their power to try and make sure that the things that would hurt them won't happen. It's a good thing to increase economic activity too if we take care of the environment, imagine the increase in tourism when you do that, it's going to be more than a country typically earns in their tourism campaign.
6  Economy / Economics / Re: Feeling McTroubled? on: May 12, 2024, 03:15:55 AM
You should probably expound on that one though, show us the data and not just give us the links, that will show how you are a forum poster here. Regards to your topic, it's only natural that this will happen, inflation is a thing and having a standard metric like food is a good way to observe it and see how the world economy is doing or your country's economy is doing by that metric. Even with that, it's enough for you to be able to give the current rate of inflation, I guess with more and more billionaires that only want the money for themselves and less money for us, this kind of thing is to be expected, unless we do something about this one, we will never see any changes to the price of McDouble.
7  Economy / Economics / Re: Money is all wealth? on: May 12, 2024, 02:39:35 AM
When there is financial needs it seems money is every thing but at end of getting the money you will find out that there is really nothing in the money. You have to decide whether you will be happy or not because currently the world is not a too good place everything in it revolves around money but when you find these money and along the line you loss the real things that matters such as family, happiness, health etc then you will realise that money isn't everything.

You can make the world a happy place for you, it all depends on you. 
That's the reality of things, if you don't commit to your philosophy of money is just a material thing and it's just a fickle matter to argue about it then you will starve and you would probably blame that philosophy when you become that one. Money makes you happy, the saying that it doesn't is just a false narrative perpetrated by the rich people so the poor people wouldn't ask for more or become too ambitious, they really want all the money for themselves and the longer that people will believe that saying, the more the poverty all over the world would never end. Sure there are things that you can do that doesn't involve money but think about this, why not get the best of both worlds?
8  Economy / Economics / Re: Choosing Between the IMF, World Bank, or Direct Borrowing on: May 11, 2024, 11:48:30 PM
I'm just speculating but I think that most of these organizations are the ones that will approve which country will get a loan, the countries are all filing for loan or something like that, and these organizations are the ones that would see if they can lend them some money, they check what the country offers to them and the countries that are a part of the organization and if they see that those borrowers will give them the most benefit then they approve of the loan. Most of the time, they don't mind the money not getting paid back quickly, they just want the favor or the benefits from that country more than ever.
9  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will this stack make me a USD millionaire? on: May 11, 2024, 08:59:22 AM

I agree with you it's very unlikely to happen, because Bitcoin and Ethereum are already very high and close to their ATH, especially BTC. So those assets are more likely to go down now than to go higher. There is no FOMO events scheduled in the coming months anymore, ETFs have been approved and halving has now passed. I see above one guy (OgNasty) telling "odds of it happening in 2025 are still probably better than not that it will happen" I would be curious to know how he came to that conclusion. Because it means that he thinks odds for this outcome to happen, are higher than 50%, that is to say less than 2.0 in decimal odds. That would be crazy if it was realistic.
I forgot something about this one though especially with bitcoin, I forgot to mention that bitcoin is always full of surprises so I'm pretty sure that there's a possibility that bitcoin will be able to reach prices that we wouldn't expect it to reach which is most bitcoin thing that bitcoin does, it defies most of our expectations so there's a possibility that 7 bitcoin would probably make someone a USD millionaire within that set time span. Pretty awesome how that can be a possibility with bitcoin in such a short time. I don't feel like people are FOMOing anymore, they already know what to do and they know that missing out is the worst thing that you can do in bitcoin.
10  Economy / Speculation / Re: Now is the best time to buy the dip and HODL on: May 11, 2024, 08:16:22 AM
The current price is gonna be another buying opportunity for those who haven't yet but for those who have accumulated already, it is simply ignored.
This is not the best time to buy because if we are thinking about investing in Bitcoin, supposedly we will be doing this during the bear season when the price was just below $40k.
Of course, buying is still good but not good as compared in buying last year. However, I would not consider this as the best position. Although I won't usually think about "what IF" but who knows exactly as what IF there is no pump anymore?
Every current price is a buying opportunity as long as your selling price goal is astronomically or way higher than the current price, that's why DCA exists so you can easily manage how you want to spend your money when it comes to bitcoin investment, you put in how much you think is appropriate depending on the situation or the current price. It's a matter of adaptation to whatever situation you're in that would make all the difference, remember that it's really difficult to buy bitcoin even if you have the money at any point in time, timing will always matter. That if question you've got though, I don't think that it's a valid question though, there's still billions of people out there that don't know about bitcoin yet, I don't think that these people discovering bitcoin would ever lead to us seeing the decline or the demise of bitcoin price pump.
11  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Will always Survive on: May 11, 2024, 07:26:46 AM
I don't agree with this one, the points that are being pointed out doesn't regard every other factor that might cause bitcoin to crash a global disaster for one could easily do that elimination of bitcoin, just big monsoons, storms/typhoons and tornadoes and you'll see that things are so easy to destroy and how fickle and weak our technology is to the elements. Maybe in terms of the tech and financial related attacks, bitcoin might be able to withstand those but other things, that's going to remain to be seen before we can say for sure. Even all the stuff that you're talking about OP are pretty much things that remain to be seen to prove that bitcoin really is what you think it is.
12  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin as a core subject in our schools - Good or bad idea? on: May 11, 2024, 06:43:31 AM
I see school as a way for you to discover what you want and what calling you've got in your life, I mean that should how schools function in my opinion, not just a place of learning but also as a way for children to explore and learn about what they want to do in their life, that's why I do believe in the fact that we should have bitcoin as a subject in schools but I get those that don't want it, bitcoin is a specific thing in the Science and Technology umbrella so I get why some wouldn't agree in regards to this being a part of the curricula of students but think about this, if it's a subject in a technology oriented school, it would probably be a good subject but there's also the problem of teachers and lecturers that would be capable of teaching these subjects, unless we want a quality education, we're going to need those that have the specialty in bitcoin or else we'd just don't get the desired effect.
13  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why you should only hold Bitcoin on: May 11, 2024, 05:40:09 AM
You just don't get it OP, the reason for why other hodl other cryptocurrency besides bitcoin is from the fact that there are some altcoins out there that can make you a hefty sum if you just sold it or you've bought when they were cheap and some people in the community have an ingrained thing about them that they can't afford to miss out on things especially for those that have seen bitcoin grow more than $0.1, they just don't want the idea that they miss out on the next bitcoin, that's why it's still popular to invest into altcoin because of the fact that you might be able to buy one that would make you rich and turn your life around.
14  Economy / Speculation / Re: Road to 100k? on: May 11, 2024, 04:46:51 AM
I don't know if I'm the only one that have noticed this dull movement in the market price since the halving, I'm just saying from what I've observed. If it was last 2-3 months we would have been seeing a different figure like a new one not a repeated amount like we have seen $62k so many times, now we have Bitcoin price at $63k currently, why is the price not trying to go forward instead it's between $60-63k?  If it continues like this I feel we won't even see Bitcoin price at $67k-$69k, it seems this month isn't going to be productive maybe from the last week of this very month that's when we'll be getting close to $70k.
You're too impatient, it's not like it would be the end of the world if bitcoin doesn't quickly pump after the halving, did it pump right away in the 2020 halving? If I recall it didn't because those kind of stuff takes time and there's only been like less than a month after the halving, be happy that bitcoin's price is stabilizing. People like you that doubt bitcoin are the kind that I love to follow especially when the price of bitcoin goes to the point that you thought bitcoin weren't able to reach, I really love to see you eat your words back when you doubted that bitcoin would ever reach that point in the market.
15  Economy / Speculation / Re: When will the real bull run begin? on: May 11, 2024, 03:11:10 AM
Dude, if you fail that test of patience and you sell now, you're going to regret doing it because bull run doesn't announce that it would happen, it's like that one passage in the bible about judgment or the return of Jesus Christ, you don't know when it will come or happen just like a thief of the night. I suggest that you continue investing and don't falter or doubt the power of bitcoin, you will never know when will the pump that you'd be looking for will happen. Maybe distract yourself with other things besides looking at the bitcoin prices from time to time, that would really help you a lot.
16  Economy / Economics / Re: Your own people family best friends and loyal supportive people are true wealth on: May 10, 2024, 11:42:13 PM
The title of your topic is not a match with the body composition of your statement so I want to advise you that whenever you are making a topic you should write a something that is related to that topic because it's not good for your headline to be different to the composition of your statement I try to read what you stated so far but it is not in accordance with what you stated base on your headline so I think that you should cross the check before you post it is very important for a beginner
That's to be expected for a newbie, of course they don't know how to properly talk about things so they know how things are, I think that what's OP pointing out is pretty much what the title is, I mean if you read it, OP is talking about family and how precious they are if you consider them as a resources.

Regarding the post, it's probably a no brainer that family is something that's precious to all the people in the world, after all, they're the ones that you'll come back to when things don't go your way, that's just how life is but this isn't true most of the time, you got to remember that there's people out there that hates their family because they're the worst family to be in because they're abusive and plain evil.
17  Economy / Economics / Re: Oil producing countries experiencing hardship. on: May 10, 2024, 11:05:34 PM
With how abundant crude oil is, I think that we're not so far off to think that we're going to be fine energy wise and it's not crude oil that we're using to power our homes, it's mostly fossil fuels and hopefully more nuclear energy so your concern is valid but a little bit misplaced. The problem with crude oil is that it's going to be a big contributor to pollution but the problem is that we don't have any valid replacement for it that's efficient, less toxic to humans, and create lesser if not no amount of pollution. I don't believe that oil producing countries are facing hard times though, maybe those that haven't complied with the USA are having a problem but other than that, it's going smoothly for them I believe.
18  Economy / Economics / Re: Cheap money and High debt can change Job market this is how on: May 10, 2024, 04:34:16 PM
I highly disagree with you, most of the companies and services try their best to give minimum wages to the workers and that's a bitter reality.

It's not easy to earn $1000-$5000 as a normal worker these days. In fact most of the companies are reducing the number of workers because they can't pay them wages.

Most of the workers that work in first world countries often come from third world countries, and they agree to work for 8-12 hours a day for $200-$500 per month.

By keeping those in mind, I don't think whatever you said is true, I know that workers deserve to get good salaries for the amount of effort they put, but I don't think the companies pay them well.
Those that even have the decency to do so, they're the bad companies but there's one more much lower than that and those are the companies that give out dirt cheap wages to their workers, they're never going to see any problem doing that because they know that no one really complains even if they overwork themselves. For someone that came from a third world country, I can agree with you that $1000 is a difficult thing to earn here, that's a top tier employee salary here but that's still not enough to make you survive from all the bills.
19  Economy / Economics / Re: Open your eyes stop talking about usa lose power on: May 10, 2024, 03:52:09 PM
Bitcoin is decentralized, and therefore we have alternatives if we decide not to use dollar, and governments will not be able to impose guardianship over us.
The dollar is involved in every meal we eat or coffee we drink. Global supply chains depend on dollar. Most fuel is priced in dollars, transportation and insurance vehicles are priced in dollars, and even countries that have begun to reduce dependence on the dollar, the dollar still represents the largest part of the budget, so replacing the dollar is currently impossible.
You're right but in a world that's dependent on fiat currency, bitcoin alone isn't going to cut it. You'll have a hard time being able to use bitcoin when the world doesn't fully adopt to it. I wouldn't say impossible to replace the dollar though, there's got to be a tipping point for the dollar and the US government that it's going to be a hard time for them to recover if the breaking point for them is finally reached but as you've already pointed out, the influence that dollar have on our global economy is just too big and deep rooted that it would be difficult to get them out without creating some damages.
20  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why is Bitcoin the Dumbest Thing Ever Invented on: May 09, 2024, 11:48:07 PM
If you think it is dumb then what about the other crypto currency?
And if it is a dumb thing invented why is it still in the industry and one of the most popular and highest price in cryptocurrency market?
There are so many people who are against Bitcoin or crypto, but most of them would just ignore it and continue with their life.
OP doesn't see that far to think about that part too much, OP just sees bitcoin and nothing else, kind of like having a myopic view on things, no consideration about other factors or other things that might be related to what OP's yapping about. It's probably just a stunt to troll forum users here in the bitcoin forum which I dare say is pretty effective at doing what it wants to do because it sure did earn the ire that OP is expecting, that's what the basic formula to do with trolling is, you mess with the people by putting up dumb statements and having the conviction to defend those dumb statements.
