Re: Petition to remove signature display on Reputation and Scam Acc. CB
OP is butt hurt, lol.
I don't know why you responders take him seriously, this is an alt account that has been busted in the Reputation section and this thread is because of it. When he argues in the section no one listens to him or goes against him and that is why he wants the signatures removed.
Good luck with that, lol.

Re: TwentyOne Capital: The next MicroStrategy?
⭐ Merited by JayJuanGee (1)
You don't believe what?
I don't believe how poor your reading skill are.
That TwentyOne Capital could actually do a better execution on their Bitcoin purchasing strategy than Saylor? That's going to be VERY laughable! Saylor definitely has one of the worst executions for an institutional asset buyer in crypto. Every time Strategy buys, it always marks the local top. 
The best thing about the ridicule you just made is that you put it in writing.
Perhaps someone should tell them to use limit orders for better fills and better price entries.
MSTR uses trading bots with limit orders but you continue to make a fool of yourself.
Re: I'm already happy when my bankroll lasts longer...
So how about you? Are you happy with that, or are you ambitious enough to aim for a big win, and maybe long-term success?
Well, when I played poker the bankroll lasted forever, because the goal was to make it grow and withdraw regularly. Even though I understand that a bankroll for casino games is an achievement. Yeah, skill games are all about long-term sucess.
My worry is how the big win disappear in a twinkle of an eye, as though it was used to pay off for all has been lost and then everything returns to normal. The gravity is just too tough to control, it could be balanced.
When you have a big win, what you have to do is to stop playing and withdraw at least part of your winnings to spend them on something else and come back another day. But many of you can't control yourselves and these things happen.
Re: BTC Sentiment Poll for May
⭐ Merited by tokeweed (1)
I voted yes although I was more thinking about beating the $100K than the ath. I think when the $95K resistance is broken, which it looked like it was going to be broken on the recent run up to $97K, the $100K is going to be hard to break as a lot of sell orders are piling up around that figure. Being optimistic the $100K will be broken this month after a few attempts, and another resistance will form at $109K-$110K. Hopefully we will break it but I am not so sure about that.
Re: MicroStrategy Buys $250M in Bitcoin, Calling the Crypto ‘Superior to Cash’
In 2020 Michael Saylor publicly stated on X that he has 17,732 BTC and he continuously accumulating Bitcoin.
I doubt very much that you can back up what you say. In a recent interview he was asked how many bitcoins he owns as of today and he replied "at least that much", referring to the 2020 figure. We can't know for sure if he has continued to accumulate personally but I would bet that, if he has bought more, they have not been very large purchases, as those bitcoins as of today are worth $1.6B, more than enough to live on, and focusing on his strategy in MSTR the stocks he owns are more profitable to him in that almost every week they have more exposure to bitcoin.
Please your response are greatly needed.
The first thing I will tell you is that you are breaking the rule of only betting with money you can afford to lose, which I would qualify as betting with money you are comfortable with. Apparently you are playing with money that you either can't afford or that you don't feel comfortable doing so.
If you had lost $0.01 would you be afraid? There's your answer. The thing is that the more comfortable you are with the amount you bet the less exciting the bet is.
Re: Is Saint-loup cheating LiveCasino.io signature campaign? What do you think?
This type of activity could lead to managers not allowing edited posts to count which IMO I think would be great.
To not paid edited posts would only be done by lazy managers IMO. Every week I edit my posts, usually to correct mistakes or clarify something, once I read them after they are published (and I check them before publishing), which is far from what Saint-loup does. So a responsible manager if he doesn't want to pay for edited posts should check if they are shitpost-like IMO, like the case mentioned above, or responsible post improvements.
I will not go deeper into this as I see that the rest of the opinions expressed are similar to mine.
Nutildah is quite benevolent when it comes to leaving tags on people's profiles, so you're not going to convince anyone that the tag is unfair. Another thing would be a factual error, which can happen to all of us, but this is not the case.
At least you seem to take your share of the blame and promise to change.

Re: Britain to bar consumers from borrowing to buy crypto under new regime
By the way, while browsing reddit the other day I came across a post in the Monero subreddit with a link that showed the European union really, really wants to know what people are doing with their money. In the name of money laundering, fighting terrorism, and the usual bullshit excuses provided for limiting freedom to own crypto. It reminds me of the old PR line when some big shot gets fired: "he wants to spend more time with his family". Nonsense.
That's right. The EU is heading towards a totalitarian state (the same as UK, which has not been part of the EU for years but is now following a similar policy).
Note the latter: European Union To Ban Anonymous Crypto & Privacy Tokens By 2027
Some say this would include Lightning Network.
They don't want anything they can't control.
Re: Trump 100 Day Mark: Voters Disappointed on Economy
People are mad because stock market is dumping therefore their net worth as well.
That may have been the initial reaction to what was called “liberation day” which caused a dump in the markets but you seem to have missed the fact that they have largely recovered, in part because Trump has had to disavow some of his positions.
A 3% down for the year is nothing, and if the trend continues, the markets will be in positive territory this week.
Re: 21 Capital: A Bitcoin Native Company
⭐ Merited by JayJuanGee (1)
The point is that the more aggressive 21 Capital is, the more difficult it is to catch up with Strategy due to the increased price pressure.
The less aggressive, the less momentum they gather with investors.
For them, the playbook is relatively narrow, and execution is critical.

Let's also not forget that Cantor Fidgerald invested in Q4 last year $1B in MSTR. I don't think they are going to unwind that position lightly. If they thought XXI was going to outperform MSTR they would dump the position right now and move that money into XXI but it looks like they are going to hold shares in the Coke and Pepsico of bitcoin.
Even though companies, governments and/or rich people are engaging in hoarding of bitcoin practices, it still seems that many of us are going to be better off to make sure that we have our own bitcoin stashes, even if we might choose to invest some percentage of our bitcoin holdings (that we would not be holding) into 3rd parties who are holding them and even potentially leveraging various debt systems to accumulate more bitcoin for themselves.
Right. The best course of action for an individual investor is to manage your private keys. If you want to invest a little bit in XXI or MSTR, or if you want to use like 5% of your stash to get bitcoin-backed loans or some yield I think it is OK.
Re: Doubt about the forum not acting on ban evaders.
Perhaps the administrator sees that no violations are currently occurring from this account and simply gives it some concessions for presence on the forum.
I wouldn't be surprised, because I thought something like that. If in practice and with a minimum of precautions someone banned can create a second account without being detected, rule 25 is often impractical. Now, if a ban evader is detected and in the account he is using now he is not breaking the rules, does it make much sense to ban him? If you ban this account you know what he will do: create another one. And surely this time he will be more careful until the time comes when he will create an account that will definitely not be detected as an alt of a banned account.
Surely it is more relevant what he is doing now with that account, if he is respecting the rules.
What I don't understand is some specific cases, like Polo7 and his alts, who is not only a ban evader, but he also keeps shitposting the forum.
Re: What percentage of betting players are long-term winners?
Long term winners will always lose in the long run,
Did an AI write that for you? I doubt it, although sometimes it does hallucinate.
Saying it was possible to make a good profit from gambling before and it's no longer the same way now makes it look as if there have been some adjustments made in the gambling system, or are you implying that there is an unfair system now? in gambling, which makes it a bit difficult to win and make a profit in the long run compared to how it was back then.
The one you are responding to (who is the one I quoted above) is an AI spammer, so I wouldn't pay much attention to him. Related to what you say, I have seen interviews with professional bettors who say that it is increasingly difficult to win (as in poker), mainly because the winners years ago what they did was to find little exploited niches, such as minority sports or second leagues, and find their value bets there. With time, automation, the use of statistical programs and AI, the bookmakers have been adjusting the odds more and more, so it has become more difficult to win even in those niches.
Re: $700k Monthly Rewards | MetaWin.com | The First WEB3 Casino
Oh, it looks like MetaWin will be sponsoring streamers soon 👀
For all the measures being taken I am sure MW is increasing its customer base. Is there any data on this? I seem to remember to have seen something about that but I'm not sure.
Another good news is, they're also bringing back on-site support. Whether you're a discord user or not, I think we can all agree that it's better to have an on-site support. This is great!
Yes, as we were talking about, I think this is going to be very much appreciated by the customers.
Re: Britain to bar consumers from borrowing to buy crypto under new regime
I think this is another way of making their citizens lack freedom of doing something.
Yet another sign of socialism in the UK, which is nothing more than a longing for communism, especially in the totalitarian aspect. They hate individual freedom and want an ever larger state that controls every last aspect of life in society.
One responsibility of government is to protect the people in every means that is deem right for the benefit of the people and for greater good of that society. This protection includes lives and properties and acquisition of bitcoin is an asset which also falls under properties. Therefore, if the citizen or people are acquiring bitcoin in a wrong way by only looking at the prospect of profit but not on the risk to the extent of indebtedness if the aim for profit fails, then it behoves on the government whose responsibility extends to asset protection stands in the locus to direct her people. Bitcoin is very expressive and to go for loan of that high amount to buy bitcoin is quite a risk that can turn people into perpetual debtors and that will affect standard of living and the society. So I think it is trite if the UK government is stopping people to borrow money to buy Bitcoin or crypto.
Thinking like this, I am not surprised that part of your nickname is “crypto” and not “bitcoin”, because bitcoin is precisely the opposite of what you say, at least in its original conception. Shitcoins, or “crypto” as you call them, do fit more in that conception of yours that there must be a giant state that puts its hand to control what citizens do.
Re: Possible cheating in Betpanda campaign
⭐ Merited by The Cryptovator (1)
The fact all three members have not been online the past few days speaks volumes as it could be related to more (as of yet undiscovered) accounts but that is a different matter altogether.
It is already clear to me that there are three alts accounts managed by the same person. If I haven't tagged them yet it's because LM is the one I think should do it first, and I guess he will have given them a reasonable time to answer. Besides there is no hurry, as they are not active they are not going to scam anyone.
Gambling budget should be adjusted with our income so we will not difficult to allocate the money for primary needs. We can not just waste our money or income for gambling because we must fill our needs first then we can use the money for other things including for gambling. If we don't have much money left, it is better we hold ourselves from gambling and do other things to distract our minds.
We can go to casinos when we have the money to gamble. We don't force ourselves to allocate our income when we have many needs. We must first think our needs then other needs including gambling.

Needs? Do you really think gambling is a need?
One of two things, either you don't have a gambling budget, which I would find quite plausible from the way you write, or if what you say is true, you have a problem, my friend, because your subconscious has betrayed you. Gambling is not a need, and if for you it is, then you have problems.
Re: 📝[Discussion topic] Overview of Bitcointalk Signature-Ad Campaigns📝
Is this generic chatgpt reasoning? I don't know how it was before, but from what I have seen on my first day the quality of posts is terrible in many places. Perhaps in some places it is good and some users are improving, but overall the look is not great.
You mean forum members using ChatGPT and passing the resulting text as one of their own creation? Quality posters don't do that, and those that do when ChatGPT didn't exist wrote generic garbage instead of AI generic garbage. Notice that the most senior, highest ranking or most meritorious members don't do it. And if they do use it as I do from time to time, we make it clear what the AI contributes, quoting for example, and separating it from our own created text.
Re: Will Bitcoin break its all-time high (ATH) soon?
Bitcoin returning to $97k is a positive signal, but not a reliable sign or indicator to confirm that bitcoin will definitely reach a new ATH.
Indeed, if people want to buy bitcoin, they should buy whenever they have money or whenever bitcoin is dumped. Those who wait for the price to drop further, hesitate to buy for fear that the price will continue to fall. They are not stupid, but they will never buy.
There is no guarantee that the market will not be dumped again, the market is affected by tariffs, geopolitics...and we cannot control those things so we cannot predict anything.

That's right, first the price hit the $95K resistance. Now it seems to have hit the $97K level. That's because people place sell orders as soon as the price approaches a round number, so I guess beating $100K will take some time. But in the meantime, as you say, on a downward bounce we don't know if the price can go lower than we expect.
Re: Do you know how much you spend on various bills a week/month?
I have a rough idea, although some bills are variable. But after more than a decade of budgeting, saving on investing, I am still saving and investing but without budgeting. The key is above all to increase income. And when you increase it, don't freak out by increasing your lifestyle. That way I can now not strictly control expenses and income without negatively affecting my finances.
