[2020] Positive news!

[Vod]

Bitcoin reached $24,209.66   just 5 days before Merry Chrismast, it's just like a gift from Santa Claus for all Bitcoin HODLING. Remember to always HODL!!!

I don't think a true HODLer cares about price fluctuations.

2020 ends. It has been a very interesting year for the crypto community.

My suggestion is to end this year in a positive way.
This is not my idea and it has already been implemented on the forum (unfortunately I cannot find links). I want to continue this tradition.

Share your 2020 achievement, any good news, success, and so on. Say something good about any user or how this forum has helped you succeed.

I am glad that 2020 is finally over. This has been the worst year in a generation, if not longer for many if not most people throughout the world.

There has been a lot of pain and suffering this year, and I can only pray that the end of 2020 will bring the end to that.

Well 2020 started like every other year for me, while others were complaining on how bad the year was, I was just lively one of my best years of my young life on a low key until my greed got the best of me. I lost hugely to one of the defi projects, I did a thread on it on the forum but just don't want to revisit to post the link here to avoid falling back into depression caused I always lost it although tried staying strong. Most of my profit (if not all) got lost in chasing that over hyped projects and got dumped on by the early investors.

On the good side, the Covid19 didn't cause much harm in my region so I didn't have to go through the fear of contacting the virus. My condolences though to all those that had to go through the hell the pandemic caused. This year brought out the best of me as my old habbit of always wanting to help those in need got resurrected after I got a chat from Royse777 concerning overseeing the outreach planned for my region. Special shout out to all those that made this event possible and successful, (the donators, volunteers and organizers) you guys were the real MVP (heros to me) this year.

The year is also ending on a good note, bitcoin has done impressive numbers in regards to price appreciation but to be frank I didn't benefit much since I got trapped in alts although I'm happy generally for the growth of bitcoin and the industry in general. I see better days ahead and as far I'm still breathing there's hope for a better tomorrow starting with 2021. I know she's going to treat me nicely.

I also want to say thank you to everyone who has supported me this year. It was a leap year, they always say that such years are never easy. But this time, COVID-19 amazed the entire planet so much that 2020 will be remembered for a long time.
But despite all the hardships, we have become more experienced and stronger, so we need to accept what we have passed with dignity and move on.
The next year according to the eastern calendar will be the year of the Bull, which means that the bull is a hardworking and determined animal. All who will develop and work will be successful. Let's forget about all misunderstandings and enter the New year with a pure heart.
Today is Catholic Christmas.
I congratulate everyone from the bottom of my heart and wish health to all family and friends. And, of course, to all Bitcoin supporters of a further bull run.

2020 was just an amazing year for me in terms of personal growth. I learned a lot this year. A website I worked on rose x5 times and that was an unbelievable achievement to me even though I was returned to the place where I started after Google's December update:D. Thank this year, I have a strong enough plan, finances, knowledge and experience to start a brand new online magazine (maybe in crypto) that I always wanted next year.

Other than that, thank God, I did not lose anyone close because of the virus (some of them suffered real bad tho, but considering that at some point people kept dying in a couple of days after being infected, I'm thankful to God).

Also, no need to mention how fantastic year was it for the world of crypto! We got back to the point where we actually belong after the last two awful years. This is only a start and cryptocurrency will more and more be valuable by time.

   

Thank you everyone in Bitcointalk for being a part of it, blessings to mods, admins, scammer busters , data guys, quality posters and all other contributors of the forum. Sending you all my heartfelt wishes with joy that never ends.

Happy New Year!

Well hopefully this year will see the end of EU control and interference in our affairs. I hope we will get the no deal result that we voted for so long ago, but it looks as idf they are still trying for a last minute stitch up lets hope it fails.

The exposure of the covid vaccine and it undoubted failure may lead to an end of the modern vaccine myth. The differences between protein vaccines such as smallpox ( which take 10 -20 years to test), and RNA vaccine such as the modern one like Covid ( which are being tested in months) is starting to be publicised. Increased health education and awareness may help us all to live the current anticipated lifespan for the young of 150 years.

Bitcoin has found its role in the modern economy, and this is a store of wealth alongside gold and other precious metals. A few altcoins seems to be establishing themselves as internet currencies. Hopefully this use will increase in 2021, and such coins will gain public acceptance.

The role of vitamin "D", hydration, zinc and fresh air in helping to build natural vitus immunity id being publicised by a few government officials - lets hope that people start to take notice.

Questions are being raised about environmentally damaging electric cars, so I hope the demise of petrol and diesel vehicles will be postponed.

2021 will be a year of great wealth transfer. I hope we can work together to ensure that it flows in the right direction.

[Cadaver20]

First of all I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas.


2020 is a very eventful year in my life. I just want to mention the positive side here. The biggest positive news is that I joined this great forum this year. I achieved Full membership on this great forum.

A few days ago, the result of Bitcointalk community awards was published. I also voted there.  Although not all of my nominated candidates are winners. Yet at the end of the year I would like to recall some of the members here who have helped me in various ways or who I like.

LoyceV, DdmrDdmr, Coolcryptovator : These three are the most helpful person in the forum. It is not too late for DdmrDdmr to encourage a good quality post in the Beginners and Help section.
Suchmoon: Suchmoon is the moon of this forum.
Ratimov : Ratimov is like a teacher of this forum.
CryptopreneurBrainboss: He is a gentleman of this forum.
zasad@, icopress: This two are the entrepreneur of this forum.
Hhumpuz: Most successful manager of this forum.
YOSHIE, lovesmayfamilis: This two are the Scavengers of this forum.
Vod: Vod is the guardian of this forum.

And the new year is coming a few days later. I hope everyone will forget the filth of the old year and move forward with new vigor in the new year.

There’s no argument that 2020 has been a woeful year , but in times of hardship , communities are brought together and this has certainly happened in the bitcointalk community .

Project Covid- 19 has been a fantastic community charity and I totally respect all organisers and donators ( too many to mention) who have been involved in it - well done !

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5243099.220

On a personal level , knowledge is crucial and at least during lockdown I’ve had the chance to increase my crypto knowledge.
Thanks OP for starting this thread and giving us this opportunity to say thanks and be grateful for all the positives . Onwards and upwards for 2021. 

Have a great holidays all

for me personally, the year 2020 was a very positive one in terms of crypto, which of course has been surpassed by the new ath of Bitcoin. it makes me very proud that i have been a member here in the forum for almost 10 years and have already invested in digital gold back then.

as for the review of the year in terms of humanity and the world, i think we have seen an unprecedented "catastrophe" by the covid-19 pandemic ... too many dead, catastrophic conditions in the respective countries and their hospitals, refrigerated containers where the corpses are stored, etc. i hope that now through the starting corona vaccinations now the whole thing so slowly comes to an end and we can sometime in the summer of 2021 again live somewhat "normal"


merry christmas and stay healthy!!

2020 was the year when I started learning Python(with almost zero knowledge of other programming languages), and my inspiration for that was a user from this very forum, namely @LoyceV. Seeing how helpful one can be by knowing how to code, I decided to learn a language myself, and I chose Python, for many obvious reasons.

I've been in this business for only 4 months, but I already have an achievement I'm proud of. At one point, about a month ago, I decided to try to write a program that prints out the Fibonacci Sequence, with the knowledge I had at the time. I intentionally did not google it, and you can't imagine how happy I was when within 2 days I succeeded!

The program is so simple and short that I think I can show it here.

Code:

x = 0
y = 1
while x < 100:
    print(x)
    print(y)
    x = x + y
    y = x + y

#Insert any number you want instead of '100' to obtain a sequence of the desired length.

Then I googled it, and I didn't find a code this simple and readable, which made me even more happy.

So, apart from Bitcointalk Poker Series, started this year, one of which I won, earning around 0.045 BTC, that was my greatest achievement in 2020, I guess.

Thank you, Bitcointalk community, for making this world a better place!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

The Ledger leak is a poor ending to 2020 (cryptowise), but the positive side is that people may go around changing their emails and phone numbers, which once in a while causes a likely healthy practice, so there’s that (albeit one that is cumbersome) – just trying to flip the outcome with some positivity.

Sent some sMerits around for xMas ( 206 profiles merited (by me) in under 4 minutes – What’s got over me? (v 6.0)) to drain it all from the well …

Merit xMas …

[Rikafip]

It's been a shitty year overall and I won't remember it for good, but if I have to find something positive, it's two things:

• I reaffirmed my hodling beliefs. Few years ago I though that I will sell at least half of my bitcoin stash when we reach previous ATH, but as time was passing, so was my plan. New ATH came and passed and my stash is almost intact (if anything it got increased).
• 2020 was my first full year on forum during which I learned quite a lot from many knowledgeable and helpful people here. That process still goes on and will hopefully continue in the same manner during 2021.

Merry Christmas everyone, stay safe and healthy!

[samerfarari122]

i have double my profit by selling my btc and im happy i think the price of btc will go more but it will be to greedy if i hold and not sell btc well we all have focus to book the profit first

[zasad@]

This is the most positive news for today, you can even send coins to this exchange, but you will not be able to withdraw them
https://www.livecoin.net/en/trading/BTC_USDT


1BTC =1 400 000$
Today we are witnessing a historic moment

__
I will send merit to all participants as far as I can

[Pffrt]

What can be the good news other than BTC reaching new ATH? I don't think there is any more good news for anyone who love bitcoin, who are into it for a long time, who have invested in it and HODL tight in the bearish season, even when a lot of noobs have capitulated. So, that's the best news for me.
Cheers

August 2020 is where I started a new business (irl) with my bitcoin capital. I have an initiative to use bitcoin which I got during January to August by breaking it into 2 parts for trading capital (as usual) and real business then comparing both profits at the end of this year. So far, my real business has unexpectedly grown despite the pandemic. At least so far it has generated about 80% profit (in fiat). Maybe I started this business too quickly when bitcoin was under $12k at that time, if I had started now I might have got more capital but I'm happy to finally start my real business with capital from bitcoin. Surely this will be one of my stories that bitcoin has started this if my business continues to grow, hopefully.

[Indymoney]

I am really feeling energetic in this year as I was feeling to leave this forum and try some other way but suddenly after reading few good topics and have some good news about bitcoin give me energy and I try my best just because of this I have really good time even I was able to have nearly 150+ merits which is best achievement for me because as I received from someone its give me encouragment that I need to learn some more can do some more better.

[Cornia]

Share your 2020 achievement, any good news, success, and so on. Say something good about any user or how this forum has helped you succeed.

This is a memorable year for me because I am involved in crypto this year. Everything has its ups and downs. Although Covid-19 caused a lot of problems in my real life, maybe this is why I joined this forum for Covid-19. And now I am very happy to join this greatest forum.

Since I am a beginner I visit Beginners & Help section to learn some new things. I have seen some members always helping newbies like DdmrDdmr, pooya87, o_e_l_e_o, mk4, 1miau etc. I thank them all from my heart. May the new year fulfill everyone's expectations with this wish Hapoy New Year.
