Re: Why are you taking profit on bitcoin?

Simply put, taking profits shouldn’t be overlooked or ignored, especially in trading. Missing out often stems from greed, incompetence, or carelessness in seizing opportunities once they appear.
This is a discussion forum, and for you to understand why a person says what they say, you have to understand that person's perspective. It is only after you've seen things from his point of view that you can know how skewed their point is and how to correct such a person. It is also only when you can learn from a person. Keep in mind that we live in different realities, and my experiences may be different from yours, so the way I view things may be different from yours, but at the core, humanity should prevail. Now and then, I see people being rude or condescending to other users, mostly in a subtle manner, but it shouldn't be like that. Except that the person is being a jerk or just inhumane, there's no need for that.
When we see something, we should try to critically analyse that thing properly before making judgments. For example, a person can say something like "taxes are too expensive" and another user might just dive in and disagree, failing to realise that we come from different parts of the world and how things are in one country or city may be different from the other. Therefore, our views will be different, and that is fine because that is how we can grow or get better.
In forums, we should speak clearly so others understand us. Specify your opinions, like saying "my country's taxes." If misunderstood, calmly clarify or ignore persistent attacks. No one's perfect.

Re: How to Hide Your Bitcoin Transaction (Without CoinJoin)
let says i have binance account, you are saying, binance > mixer
don't do that? why?
They may block your account. Coinbase for instance is well-known for blocking accounts if users send coins to an online casino. It's safe to assume centralized exchanges are analysing incoming and outcoing coins.
I had no idea they could track outgoing Bitcoin transactions too
really surprising!

Don’t quit your job for Bitcoin just yet. Keep working, invest gradually, and gain experience. Your job pays the bills, and you’ll know when, or if, it’s time to switch.

Re: ⚠️SCAM⚠️ Changenow.io illegally holding 440,000$ and not releasing it ! ⚠️SCAM⚠️
Changenow acts legit for small swaps but freezes big ones, leaving people stuck.
scam
After talking to them, I realized that they are harassing crypto users and holding their funds. I am surprised that crypto users do not really try to understand the usage of this exchange before using it, that too with such a large amount of funds. There are already many complaints against changenow in this forum and they have not even tried to resolve those complaints and this shows that their intentions are bad.
Anyway, the OP is still offline, let him come online and see if there is any new update.
Even after users submit all requested KYC/AML documentation, support frequently stops responding and funds are not released, sometimes for months

Don’t carry seed phrases physically; keep them securely stored digitally or written safely, with backups to avoid panic if lost.

If Bitcoin adopted Monero's privacy tech, CEXs would struggle to track transactions for AML. They might tighten KYC, limit BTC use, or push new regulations, but tracing would be nearly impossible.

Re: Are Stablecoins Undermining Bitcoin's Original Mission?
by

on 25/07/2025, 10:50:02 UTC
Bitcoin was created to fix problems with centralized fiat money by being decentralized and uncontrollable. Governments make their own fiat blockchains they can control.
I can exchange my crypto vs your paypal with a 8% fee (amount is illimited), message me for more details.
The only people who will pay 8% fee, are the ones who use stolen Paypal accounts. Even if you're honest, there is nothing to gain from this trade.
To be honest mine paypal is registered on my own name But i am from pakistan and paypal is from UK means i open an LLC in UK registered on my own name paid all the LLC fesses and registered and using my LLC details i open Paypal account will you call it too as stolen paypal account if using this kind of paypal account is illegal here then i am out from my offer i wont trade with paypal here
UK LLC PayPal account in Pakistan is not automatically illegal or "stolen," but it can be against PayPal's terms
Is staking stablecoins really as easy and safe as it sounds? I’ve heard a lot about how staking stablecoins can generate good income, is it true?
Is anyone here actually staking stablecoins right now? any hidden downsides ?
Well, why don't you do it via bank deposit. I mean stablecoin staking will generate similar amount of income from staking. If you compare to some countries, bank deposit will fetch much higher return than staking. Yes there are some exceptions for sure but the credibility of those coins is questionable.
There are many risks like, de-pegging of price, staking platform may disappear, lock up period etc. I personally wouldn't do staking with a lock in period.
which bank similar amount of income from staking same as? mind name it

Re: Which non KYC exchanges are the most user friendly?
good discussion and good points made however since no one has any other real answer or solution I think in the input was helpful. localbitcoins is the answer if your willing to risk an actual meetup with a stranger. I give vague answers that are theories I am glad to see people here verifying what makes sense.
Are you still using LocalBitcoins? I don't recommend using their service due to many issues on their platform before; meeting up with a stranger is also pretty risky if you indeed meet up in hiding places. If you are able to exchange your other coins into USDT and Monero, it might be easier to exchange them into any P2P non-KYC exchange.
At least it came from big exchanges where you are verified and withdraw them into your non-custodial wallet and use the P2P non-KYC exchange to look for someone that accepts these coins. I believe they won't tax it if it's still in crypto. If you are thinking about the big exchange where you exchange those coins into USDT/Monero, they only tax you once you convert them into FIAT on big exchanges where you are verified but our plan is to move them to your non-custodial wallet and use P2P non-KYC exchange to avoid the tax.
hi i used to have a note (Desciption) next to each transaction in my Electrum History, but now theyre all missing?
If you only restored your wallet from the seed (and not the wallet file itself), there is, unfortunately, no way to recover the lost descriptions from the blockchain or from your seed

Re: How to Hide Your Bitcoin Transaction (Without CoinJoin)
I don’t want to use CoinJoin, but want to increase your privacy (to make tracing transactions hide) on Bitcoin is it possible?
Any other methods?
Yes of course, you can use a bitcoin mixer/tumbler to mix your coins for privacy, if you do not want to use CoinJoin. Don't send your coins from an exchange to a mixer and vice versa but send to your noncustodial wallet first before sending using mixer to mix your coin to the bitcoin address that you want to send it to.
