You are missing the point, read my previous post. What the law says is useless when there are many exceptions using certain structures. All of the tax loopholes were created by politicians for the rich people. This de facto makes it a tax exemption. They paid, they got what they needed and now they are using it. Instead of the whining about loopholes for decades, they would be closed otherwise. It is very easy to close most of the loopholes but they don't want to.
The last I checked I didn't quote you, telling me to read your post is what I don't get, except you are not telling me something. I wonder why another person will create thread while another person is taking it  up seriously than the op.

Do you take inspiration from the rich people or do they make you feel worse?

Why should I feel inferior or fake my situation just because of that? I don't feel inferior or pretend to be different just to get approval from others. If he is rich, that's good for him, I will use that as motivation that one day I will be like him, having many assets and being successful in life. But it never occurred to me that I felt small or inferior just because I compared myself to others. Everyone has their own process, so my focus remains on my efforts to achieve success.
Essentially to gain inspiration there's no need to lie to others, especially yourself, because this will inevitably backfire. Because when you try and fail the first time, you'll only make things worse, leading to despair and giving up. It's better to be realistic about your situation and avoid feeling inferior to others' success, let alone deceiving them by claiming you're richer than them.

This way you won't have the burden of proving yourself to others you only need to prove yourself. If you see someone else rich, or a friend rich, use it as motivation to emulate them in your own way, not by deceiving yourself. Because, as you said, every individual has their own process and path to success.

would you agree about the countries involved? are you interested in moving into these countries or starting a business that is crypto related? also there is no country from africa in the ranking. could there be one in the future?
Yes, we can see in general countries that treat bitcoin well developed and developed countries with sophisticated technology and where we often see Bitcoin is bad for a poor country, whether it's rivals or indeed the law of nature should be so appropriate.

If you travel or live, for me the country you mentioned is a country dreamed of by the general public throughout the world, what more the country treats Bitcoin well, it can be said that rich countries are rich in rich with the adoption of bitcoin and poor to be poor who consider bitcoin as an incomprehensible.

The UAE certainly deserves to be in the top 5. They're very tax-friendly towards crypto even offering tax exemptions for crypto traders.

If I had the opportunity to move, Singapore would probably be my choice. The reason is because it's relatively close to my country and the culture is similar enough for me to adapt quickly, but for now  I'm still comfortable living in my country, and the crypto regulations here are quite good. My government is now starting to see crypto as a significant opportunity for the future. I just hope the tax rate for using external platforms is slightly reduced.

It's no longer news or new thing how inflation has ravaged the globe, especially that of Africans and things are getting more expensive every day by day. Usually, when things are getting tougher there should be ways of preventing, reducing or economizing things to suit the current economical situation. Most times things gets unusual high in the market, and what you would buy today in the market or at the supermarket will doubled and like, I will be how? Just what I got last few days has doubled? Again, money doesn't have any value what you think could sustain you for a week is no longer taking you to 4 days. So, I want to ask over here to know the ways or technique you uses at home to reduce and save cost.
If the government cannot reduce the costs of normal expenses such as housing, education, medical care, food, then there is no opportunity to reduce them. However, if the government can control these costs, then people can reduce their expenses by reducing their optional expenses or skipping optional items. If a country has a low income but high prices and high unemployment, there will be problems like this in that country and there is no option to reduce costs. However, you can try to reduce costs by reducing your unnecessary expenses.
Yes, that's right. Ultimately, this will all depend on government intervention in stabilizing prices, especially for basic necessities. It will be difficult to save if the government can't control the domestic economy. I mean, no matter how hard we try to save, it won't go according to plan if our expenses exceed our income.

However, if the government can stabilize prices, this will certainly make it easier for us to manage our finances, which will ultimately allow us to set aside money for emergency funds and investments. To manage our finances in an uncertain economy, we must be frugal by buying what we need, not what we want.

Yeah, pretty much that's what it is, from before then till, there are huge risk involved and it is very volatile as it could easily be manipulated, like pump and dump giving the picture that the price is pretty much good and it will continue to go up. And even if you are close to the people behind, it doesn't mean that it will go up or what they say are going to happen. Never trust anyone in the altcoin market.

And just imagine if he just invested that 1 BTC to Bitcoin itself in 2019, then he could have made a good and steady profits. It might not be as huge as what he is looking for altcoins or shitcoins, but at least you can sleep at night and not thinking that your investment are not going to zero. And that you are going to make a profit no matter what.

Let's keep it straight; those are shitcoins which are totally manipulatable since it attains its market influence purely on hyping and as a proof of work mechanism consensus it could be flexible for the developers reaction on manipulating the price in pump and dump and even have the degree to terminate the project.
It's good if we stay aware that developers of these shitcoins may have teams in our respective environs. So you must think skeptic whenever cryptocurrencies is introduced to you with the tone of enriching you. Such are the promoters who could just be out there while you don't know their mission. Indeed such are terrible sort of opportunities to invest on because there're high chances that you could be scammed.
I hope the lessons from the experience can guide us through.

1. Store of Value Like Gold

Bitcoin has a fixed supply of 21 million coins, which makes it resistant to inflation.

Many investors treat it like gold: something you hold long-term to protect wealth.

This is why large institutions and even some governments are now adding Bitcoin to their reserves.

2. A Tool for Financial Freedom

Bitcoin is decentralized — no government or bank can control it.

It allows fast, borderless, peer-to-peer transactions.

For people in countries with weak currencies (e.g., Argentina, Venezuela, Turkey), Bitcoin often works as a safer alternative.

3. Transparency and Security

Every transaction is recorded permanently on the blockchain.

This prevents manipulation while still keeping ownership secure through cryptography.

4. Challenges That Cannot Be Ignored
Scalability: Bitcoin still processes far fewer transactions per second than Visa or Mastercard.

Energy Usage: Mining requires large amounts of power, which critics say is unsustainable.

Regulation: Different governments are still undecided on how to regulate or tax Bitcoin.

Why Bitcoin is Called Digital Gold – Investopedia

My Question to the Community

Do you think Bitcoin will remain primarily a store of value (digital gold), or can it realistically evolve into a global financial system that competes with traditional banking?

I would love to hear your perspectives and real-world examples.

Ofcourse, it's however not in human nature to accept whatever that is thrown at them without review for issues or question. If it happens on the contrary, it's likely because the human is asleep, afraid, controlled, powerless, bought or corrupted.

Achieving consensus through unhindered open/transparent reviews or questions that are done responsibly, is actually right, but this is largely forbidden or limited in tyrannical or autocratic system for fears that the evil agenda of autocrats/tyrants who typically operate in the dark will be exposed and hindered.

Bitcoin is counter system designed with good principles, and functions through public consensus (that must not be denied to anyone who wishes to be part of it) to help prevent its abuse and takeover by tyrants

To me, this is the point.
A 25 cut is a policy error, in my humble opinion, but this cut or even a 50 bps one, aren’t going to change anything in the big scheme of events.
I am trying to say is a bit different. Even if it is an error, it is not going to destroy the economy. Do the cut, observe what happens and let's see if it is a mistake or not.
So fillippone, the cut came and it was pretty small. The US is still standing. How long should I wait before declaring that I was right and that a small cut can't nuke the economy?  Tongue We don't need to make a big deal about small cuts. It also seems that there will be at least 1 more .25 cut this year.
