Not impossible to win, but the greed is the actual problem. Let's say you got lucky, hitting the x1000 in the highest difficulty of Plinko and got it for just 100 balls that you dropped. (This happens, I know it because it did happen to me.) The problem is, are we going to stop, or will we continue? Most of the time, a gambler will continue with the thought of being lucky that day. That's when the possible becomes impossible because we are hungry for more, and there's a high chance it won't happen again.

Now, AI has nothing to do with this because it's just pure luck, as you said. You got in at the right time and won something. I think AI will only be useful on games where analysis is needed, not in games such as Plinko or Dice.

This is very wrong you need to update your understanding. USD has lost a lot of value this year, which means that this stablecoin is not really stable in terms of value. The price changes all the time. Obviously the price of 1 USDT is not going to change in the USDT/USD pair.  Try viewing it as USDT/other fiat and you will see. They are both unstable and volatile.

From the very beginning we started to have so many Ethereum competitors and Blockchains which claimed to the Ethereum killer, always because of the way fees had increased in the main Eth network. Though, I am more inclined to believe this is rather the result of a person trying to catch the attention through using a disproportionate fee for a small transaction, it would not be the first time I have seen something like that.
So far, in spite of the high fees, Ethereum has managed to keep a high volume of transactions and those Ethereum killers have not been able to surpase the market capitalization of Ethereum.

If you think that P2P transactions without the need for KYC verification completely preserve your privacy, you are mistaken. Such transactions may be untraceable, but we cannot be sure that our counterparties are not passing on information about transactions to third parties. So, privacy is only preserved within the Bitcoin network. As soon as you exchange Bitcoin for fiat money, your privacy is at risk. The only way to maintain privacy is to conduct a P2P transaction through a secure meeting. But if we exclude cash, such transactions are impossible.

Taxes are necessary for any country to work well. There is no way we get roads, hospitals, security, or even fair courts without people paying in. I agree, in theory, taxes should be for everyone, and everyone should get something back. That is the dream

But, like you said, the problem is the system is rarely fair. It is not just in one country. Almost everywhere, the richest find ways to avoid taxes. They have teams of lawyers, complicated companies, offshore accounts. Meanwhile, regular people cannot do this, so they pay what is asked, and even more, just to survive

I see the same thing: Big companies say they "create jobs", so they need lower taxes. But this is just an excuse. Jobs matter, but so does everyone paying their part. If only workers pay, and the richest do not, the country cannot be strong for long. The gap just gets wider

What makes it harder is, people lose trust in the system. “Why should I pay if the big guys do not?”, they asked. And when government is not sincere by wasting money or making shady deals, trust goes down even more. It turns into a cycle: more tax dodging, more debt, more frustration

real change has to come from both sides. People need to see where their money goes, and governments need to close loopholes and treat all citizens fairly, rich or poor. If we ever get that, maybe people will actually feel good about paying taxes

Well elon is more for crypto now then he has ever been, he called fat 'hopeless' when someone asked on X if his proposed political party, the America Party, would “embrace Bitcoin.”

However hes directly going against trump by forming a new party, will he back down again or go all in ?

Basically I think Bitcoin price will never go that low, it sounds really ridiculous that Bitcoin is worth $500. However, although Bitcoin is not possible to come to such a position and Bitcoin is ready to go higher in the future. Of course the market will not always be at the same speed, rather it will be bearish but will not go so low, rather if it decreases compared to the current price, it can be at $70k--$80k. Moreover, since the Bitcoin price has gone much higher and it is moving higher, people who have invested in Bitcoin have not stopped investing. Moreover, if the price of Bitcoin decreases, people's demand will not decrease, rather they will invest in Bitcoin, if the Bitcoin market drops again, then I will definitely join the investment.

Bitcoin was created as a native solution that could be used as a means of payment, instead of relying solely on fiat and other payment systems. Bitcoin wasn't created to threaten the existing financial system; in fact, I never imagined it could threaten the very existence of banks, which handle millions of financial transactions every day.

Bank will still exist, even if governments adopt and legalize crypto. Each has its own target market, and this depends on the needs. Not everyone understands crypto, so they will still choose banks, while others who are dissatisfied with banking services will turn to crypto for a better experience. Banks and crypto will coexist, that's what the future holds.

The move to create an alternative to SWIFT might be slow but it's gradually gaining momentum. BRICS Pay is a payment platform used by member nations for financial transactions without using SWIFT. Since 2023 Brazil and China have eliminated the use of dollars for trade. Rather, trade deals are settled with local currencies. China and India also have agreements to adopt local currencies in their trade deals. Other countries are also adopting the same strategy to bypass the Western-controlled payment system.

For now, AI is at a stage of "development" where it cannot replace highly professional jobs that require significant qualifications. But it can — and already does — replace job functions where everything follows the same template, with the same tasks repeated day after day. These jobs are usually held by people who are not used to fighting, adapting, or assimilating into new environments. That’s why calling on them to resist now, when AI is stepping on their toes and truly can replace them, is an effort unlikely to succeed. Because people, in general, are highly conformist and passive.

With investors, stability is not what they look for but volatility and solid growth over time are what they most wanted. Bitcoin has it for them and it has shown this amazing growth over years since 2009.

Even an older investment asset, store of value, like gold has volatile times in its history. So it does not make sense to ask Bitcoin only has stability without volatility.

In short, BTC can be said to challenge the global monetary system. Because fiat money is freely printed without gold backing, inflation and interest rates in the monetary system can be overcome by BTC's deflationary system. Therefore, if we keep our money in a bank, especially a deposit, it will become worthless due to inflation. This also relates to how safe Bitcoin is amidst global economic turmoil; the answer is, of course, very safe. Although Bitcoin was created to challenge the financial system, it has many flaws, and Bitcoin will certainly be safer during economic uncertainty because it can withstand inflation.

Bitcoin is indeed volatile, but if we look at its price from past to present, Bitcoin is the best asset to use as a hedge in any economic situation. So, for me, Bitcoin, besides being able to create financial freedom in the future, is also the best asset to own during economic downturns.

The truth is that every company would care first for its business before its workers, their idea is to do what's best for business before "what's best for employees". 9-5 still remains the most popular jobs around, though most of them try to add a little flexibility to things by adding hybrid roles, but it has not done too much to ease the stress.

In my country, people work long hours everyday and earn so little, the situation is pitiful, though it has forced people to "mind their own business", and by that i mean working 9-5, but also creating something for themselves, it could be an impressive asset column or buying properties, etc, so you ensure you don't work until everything is sapped out of you.

I know that Ethereum Transaction Fee has not been friendly with the users but today's fee cost was abnormal. The fee cost 31. 22 Eth. Which is equivalent to $112,700.

Why are "stablecoins" called stable when they are pegged to fiat currencies like the dollar?We know that the dollar isn’t truly stable ,it loses about 7 to 10% of its value annually due to inflation. More and more, we notice that with the same amount of dollars, we can buy less and less. For example, if you had $10,000 in 2020, nominally you still have $10,000 today, but its purchasing power is only about $6,800.Maybe they are considered “stable” only in terms of losing less purchasing power

Why are they called “stable” when they are actually unstable?

If the seeds could be compromised in the future, there would be immediate panic, and BTC could well collapse and even become worthless.

But so many banks and investment funds have invested in bitcoin, I suppose they've verified that this is unlikely impossible.

It also seems obvious that all the people who know BTC will buy if it dumps (and if they have liquidity to do so).

i think the "Mecha-Hitler" stuff and the other crazy shit grok says from time to time is because Elon keeps fucking with it to make it say what he agrees with, basically, he keeps poisoning it with his opinions.
but as a model, grok 4 is probably one of the best right now, but gpt 5 will be released soon. the AI space is ever evolving, so AI companies are always one upping each other with new models.

It will definitely take some time to get out of a system that has been in place for a long time. BRICS has already started working. Among BRICS countries, Russia and China are using their own payment system, which we can think of as an alternative to SWIFT in their own countries and have launched international payment systems.

CIPS (Cross-Border Interbank Payment System) is a system made by China.

SPFS (System for Transfer of Financial Messages) is a system made by Russia.

Some Russian banks have been restricted from SWIFT for a long time, some of the other banks conducting their business. But they are finding alternative. We can easily understand that it will not be difficult to operate without SWIFT but temporary problems will have to be faced. BRICS member countries are increasing. If almost half of the world's population is included in this coverage or many countries are added here, then finding an alternative to SWIFT is not a problem. Many countries are still outside BRICS, but they have started coming. As new countries join BRICS, their control over raw materials, markets and geographical position has become more powerful.

BRICS is carrying out its activities extensively and they are doing everything smoothly to keep their position more stable worldwide. That is why we need to give more time considering the global situation as we are moving forward as fast as we can. But it is certain that this organization is moving forward on the right track.

The more likely scenario is manipulation by banks and wall street in order to try and accumulate more coins for cheap. Depending how desperate they get, determines how desperate their measures go both within the Bitcoin market and outside of it. This is nothing new, during earlier times where people and entities competed/fought for rule over assets and commodities, banks and wall street were known to play dirty. No different this time.

Centralization through ownership of supply (which would effect the market, not network) is a possibility if people sell to them. Centralization of the network is a much larger and more complicated task, requiring control over territory and influencing/controlling both local and international mining operations.
