Yep, agreed with you. Most crypto maxies are all about using crypto for daily transactions, and using Bitcoin as a store of value.

Surprised by how the poll didn't actually have the common answers you'd expect like: real estate investment, stocks, holidays etc

Bitcoin stands out from traditional investments for its decentralized nature, free from governmental control or intervention.


No any other asset class comes close to these 3 main pillars that make Bitcoin the 'king' of crypto with its decentralised nature and limited supply.

Take real estate, for instance, it offers tangible assets, it's also susceptible to local regulations, political shifts, and physical damages.

Bitcoin, on the other hand, operates on a global scale, immune to local policy changes and physical threats. It's a digital asset that provides a unique blend of autonomy, security, and potential for growth, making it a distinct and modern investment choice - a medium of exchange that does not care about your background or who you are - the most fluid asset there can ever be.

This is why Bitcoin is causing so many ripples in TradeFi.

BNB is the way hands down. USDT to me still seems a little unstable and considering the law case, personally I try to stay away from it whenever possible. BNB is the coin leading BSC, so I can only imagine it will increase in popularity. For sure, there are other stable coins representing other blockchains but seems like BNB is still the largest to this day.

DOT is also another one to my view to keep an eye out because the parachain layer 1 solution is going to be huge, with more projects soon building on it. You only need to take a look at the Polkadot Master Ventures VC found to get an idea of what's coming.

Speaking of promotions it would be interesting to see what types of promos and bonuses the row of casinos will have to attract players over the festive season.
I bet really good once can entice almost anyone. Haven't yet seen many that were that attractive but I suppose it is still early with them likely appear next week. This casino per say has had some good promos in general so it would be interesting to see what the'll come up with 

With crypto trading there are a few things one learns by experience. Of the few useful things to learn and utilise are stop-loss, market research to understand what's the trend like, paying attention to news outlets, and never be FUD-ed by the news - always act of own accord which should be based one the research conducted. Lastly, take profit when you can and if you get too greedy take the responsibility for it.

It is all a mind game, and knowing which projects you invest helps a lot. It takes a lot of effort but knowing that you invested in a project that did several x from its price leave one with a massive room for market down.

One example of this for instance is the recent project launched last week, MetaVPad. It's running on a hot trending theme of the Metaverse and it did a crazy return. This is the type of investment you can be sure to be +ve even during market corrections

Much in line with my thoughts. Not many people on here think bearish. This forum is dominated by people who have been in crypto for years and because they have been involved for so long they understand the benefits of long-term holding. They experienced it first hand.

The only bearish people are the new ones that haven't yet been exposed to a massive rally.

NFTs are definitely picking up in the crypto trend. Great few examples of this is how NFTs are now intrinsic of the play to earn game mechanics, how NFTs are generally used as blockchain-stamped proof of asset ownership, and more recently as collateral for lending/borrowing.

However, with all of these models in place I'm not convinced that we're there yet to really use the power of NFTs. One limiting factor for this is of course the technology as most traditional NFTs are minted on Ethereum where the fees can be substantial.

So, the way I view it NFTs do have a place, they do have a bright future and I think we're just touching the tip of the iceberg.

In a way donated Bitcoins in this manner acts as a positive force on demand, as the lost amount can be considered a burn - a token mechanic used by many projects these days to increase the scarcity of their token and boost token value.

There isn't much of an option if you lost your Bitcoin but to accept the fate and consider it gone or donated to the ecosystem. It is frustrating for the user but there's nothing else one can do to recover the funds, so might as well accept it.

Yes, exactly. There can be many reasons why the bot is always taking second place in order books. As pointed out above, this could be simple price manipulation or price testing. Since, these are very technical gimmicks that only a handful know, we can only speculate.

What's certain is that nobody is manually doing any of this and I suppose the take home message is that you it is not your manual limitation - it is set up in a manner to always follow a specific pattern.

Best to do is be aware and if possible use a different exchange so you don't get caught up in this manipulation.

Buying and asset like Bitcoin is not all about price. It depends on funds available and the reason for investing.

Indeed when the price dumps there's a tendency to buy more Bitcoin. On the other hand, when Bitcoin starts having a rally, some people will also be inclined to buy just before 'popping off'. So, there might be some psychology involved and generally only the long-term investors buy when there are price dumps with noobs buying at the top...

First, it depends on how small the exchange is, and second, if it is a popular exchange. Also, if there's only a series of these exchanges or just one. In a way, with some exchanges like Apeswap can be alright but whether it will do well or not also depends on various features regrading the project itself.

Listings on major exchanges does often come with big players where there's a lot of tokens in circulation so dumps are unavoidable, so it can have its advantages. While listing only on small exchanges can be a sign of weakness for a project - considering that teams often aim to have their project listed in the best places possible. To me it often seems like the latter, but this is my conservative approach and can't say that it didn't do me well.

It happens to all of us. It is not superstition it is just how it is. I bet you don't notice all these times when it does go up, or the profit you earn by holding through.

And speaking of superstitions - I never was a big fan of them. I sort of rely on following my instincts and market trends. That seems to be good enough for now

You're right that the long-term holders that can call themselves early crypto-adopters will find this normal. It is normal.

You can't have green all the time, you're expected to see a downtrend in order to allow for greater growth. Considering all that's happening outside of the crypto world, with countrys' economies being on halt, inflation through the roof the crypto market is doing pretty well. The red we're seeing is nothing in comparison to the real world finance

People will try anything, no matter how ridiculous it may seem. There are always a few people who fall for these scams.

In the end, the only way to truly prevent these from happening is not by censoring, because in the end this is a democratic, open world but by raising awareness so that people can educate themselves, even if they're new comers or simply want to get involved etc

So, as long as nobody is forcing anyone it is a free, open and democratic choice that each of us has. We each can decide to either support this or not...

It is an interesting question to think about. While abandonment of Bitcoin maintenance could happen if something catastrophic was to take place like an alien invasion or something similar, the likelihood of it happening is low. This is because as long as Bitcoin is valuable and it's worth more than $0 people are going to try to use it in whichever way they can be it through mining, consensus etc.

Bottom line is as long s there is value associated with Bitcoin the above scenario is. highly unlikely to take place.
