I think we are already starting to see stability in the bitcoin price in the past few months, this can be caused by the ETFs. I believe that the more investment money flows into BTC, the more stable the bitcoin price would be.
I am a 20-year-old student. Not long ago, I heard a famous cryptocurrency expert in Korea on YouTube.
He said, "Bitcoin investment seems to be late, to be honest. I'm sad, too. I think 2018 was the last chance for ordinary people."
This makes me feel depressed. That expert started investing in bitcoin in 2013, and he encouraged his acquaintances to invest in bitcoin, but at that time he said everyone thought he was crazy.
Honestly, as an ordinary college student, the price of bitcoin now feels too much to buy.. If it's the price of the early 2010s, I might have bought it through a part-time job..
I'm so pathetic and depressed because I didn't know Bitcoin quickly. What should I do?

It’s not too late to invest in bitcoin. Bitcoin isn’t a means to make you rich, it’s something you can own over time even in small pieces and be part of something greater than the traditional fiat currency. If you can buy a piece of the technology now, you could. If you want to buy it in the future, you can do that aswell.
Alright so here is the answer to Puzzle 2:
This one was supposed to be a lot easier, there is a total of 9 options for the leftmost digit since 0 cannot be in that place, and then 9 options for the second digit since 0 can now be included, then 8 and so forth. The solution becomes 9x9! which equals 3,265,920.

There will always be regrets that people will have, but we have to move on knowing that it could've been worse.
I had 2 bitcoin during the time that bitcoin was worth around $300, and I exchanged them for amazon gift cards to buy something at that time. If I had kept them, I would've have been in a much better place today, but I still hold on to the small amount i have. I've recovered one of my wallets from a few years ago and now buying a bit here and there. My goal is to reach 0.1 btc before the end of the year.

Adding a new Puzzle 2!:
Puzzle 2:
How many different 10-digit numbers, such as 7,829,034,651, can be written by using all 10 digits? Numbers starting with zero are excluded?
This one is a step away from the area of probability and might be easier for some!

Therefore it is always better switch.
Edit:
The probability of the discarded option is added to the free option, because you have chosen before with a probability of 1/3. Many mathematicians judged Monty Hall because you would think that the odds would be 50/50, but that is not the case.

What you’re describing is the solution to the Monty hall problem where the probability goes from 1/3 to 2/3 when you switch. This puzzle is different, well because you’re given the fact that one of the private keys revealed a bitcoin. Just with this statement you know that the probability of your wallet picked being the 2 BTC wallet is no longer 1/3.
Here are all the possible wallets with keys laid out but we don’t know which wallet is which.
Wallet1 key 1: 1btc
Wallet1 key 2: 1btc
Wallet2 key 1: 1btc
Wallet2 key 2: 1ltc
Wallet3 key 1: 1ltc
Wallet3 key 2: 1ltc
As soon as it’s revealed we have a private key with 1 btc in our wallet. We know it’s between wallet 1 and 2. Now if we look at what the odds are of being wallet 1 or 2, we would see that it’s 2/3 odds that’s it’s wallet 1 based on the fact that we know we found a btc key (there are 3 btc keys between wallet 1 and 2), hence wallet 1 has 2/3 cases where the btc was from and wallet 2 has 1/3 cases.
Now that we know that we have a 2/3 probability of us picking the wallet with 2 btc, it becomes pretty clear that switching would reduce it to 1/3 and therefore we should not switch!
Is this the sort of thing you are thinking about ?

This looks like everything the OP is trying to "create" but better with LN and essentially no fees.
Vending machines are selling very low cost of goods, taking up transaction space in the main blockchain is not feasible.
I’ll share with you this post from theymos in 2019 about nakamoto that I found very interesting. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5092492.0
It’s the hard work that Satoshi put in that’s made bitcoin such a success. I have no questions for him, I admire the hard working individual that satoshi was and hopefully is today.

The Puzzle / Riddle Thread
Hi Everyone,
As a bitcoin enthusiast, I enjoy math and statistics along with cryptography. So in this thread, I would like to share my passion with all of you. I really enjoy solving puzzles that have some form of math in them. Puzzles like the Monty Hall Problem are my favourite. I'll be sharing some new puzzles / riddles here that I found to be enjoyable, hard to solve and challenging. I encourage anyone interested in these to try and solve them without any external help. Some / most of these will be tricky so try to think outside of the box.
In terms of answers, I'll update the main thread after a few days to post the answer. If one of you solve it with an easy to follow answer, I'll use that as the solution and mention you in the credits!
If anyone has any submissions to add to this list, please reply or send me a DM and I'll consider it. Note: It doesn't have to be bitcoin/ crypto related, any tricky puzzles and riddle's are welcome as long as they require some thinking to solve!
Good Luck!
Puzzle 1:
inspired by the monty hall problem
You are presented with three wallet.dat files. Each file contains 2 private keys. These private keys can hold either 1 Bitcoin or 1 Litecoin. Let's not worry about address generation for now!
You are not allowed to check the balances for each wallet and you have no way of knowing which wallet is which.
You are asked to choose one wallet as a prize. After you've chosen, your wallet file is imported into a desktop wallet and and one private key from your wallet is revealed. You find out that the key revealed holds 1 bitcoin. The wallet with 2LTC is taken out of the prize pool, and you are given the option to switch your wallet to the other remaining option.
Should you switch your choice??
Puzzle 1 Solution:

- 2023-09-19: Revised some text in Puzzle 1 to clear up some ambiguity
I won't provide an answer because, to be honest, I was unsure how to respond until I did some online research on the Monty Hall problem. 
I just want to say that it was a fascinating and thought-provoking read. It's amusing how our logical thinking can sometimes clash with the mathematical principles of probability. Hats off OP for starting this thread. A great mental workout!

Seeing someone else fascinated by the same interests as mine is a great feeling, Cheers!
I'll add some sources to the main post for the Monty Hall problem, I forgot that not everyone would have seem the problem before, although it is a popular one!

I don’t think it’s fair to say that people are not nerdy enough. Bitcoin in todays date is hell of a lot more recognized commodity compared to what it was a few years ago.
Even though the average person might not fully recognize how it works and operates, the average knowledge that an individual has on bitcoin is far greater than what it was 5 years ago.
This only goes to show that there is improvements being made in the knowledge transfer and we will be in a better place 5 years from now

I had a chance to test out the Texas Hold em Poker game mode on the Utopia platform and here is my review. The crypto-based poker platform was easy to download and get started into, redeeming the CRP voucher was a breeze as well. After I was ready to get started, there was a bit of a wait to find players to play with. However after a while, I was able to join 2 players and play a few hands of poker.
review accepted
I will DM you with reward in Utopia app,
EDIT
reward sent to BTC wallet, thank you

Thank you
I'm a bit new in the forum and still trying to figure out how so many things work, I would love to know how to get a functional wallet address or a step-by-step guide on how to create one.
This post does a great job highlighting bitcoin wallets: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1631151.0
Give it a good read, I’m currently using the unstoppable wallet for iOS and it works great for my use case.
Electrum is good for windows aswell.
