Bitcoin is a very useful thing to many people. It has provided very good opportunities, job opportunity, trading opportunity and lots more for many people to earn money for their essentials of life. Bitcoin halving is fast approaching, giving many people hope of investment, and making reasonable profit at the end. Yet in some countries it is completely illegal. What will you do if you are a fan of bitcoin but your country did not legalize cryptocurrency?

My journey into Bitcoin was entire due to the need to send payment across borders as there was FX and several other restrictions in my country. So, I joined Bitcoin just to use it for cross-border payment without knowing it could actually be a way of creating wealth in the future.

Just recently, I was tempted to check my first ever Bitcoin wallet to see what I have done in the past. I was so depressed seeing the volume of Bitcoin that have passed through my wallet without me saving a reasonable portion of it.

I have the feeling that many forum users too have similar experience; do kindly share just maybe I can feel a little better knowing that I'm not a lone.

If you're an interested investor of cryptocurrency, you don't really have to go through all this things mentioned.
What you need to do is to study about the crypto market, educate yourself on things you don't know about crypto before now, because if you say you want to make decisions when the market is stable, you may likely wait till eternity, because the market forces are always not static.
So do some education on your self and take the bold step of investing in cryptocurrency.

What do you mean by not acceptable? Is it illegal  to own bitcoin? Where do you live?

It is easier to buy bitcoin in a local exchange in your country. If there are no local exchanges,  you would have to try to buy using PayPal  or some other method. You can try here

You can buy Bitcoin from this forum but you'll have to be careful when buying Bitcoin because sometimes new members do not know how to buy Bitcoin from trusted members and they get scammed by scammers. If you want to buy Bitcoin from this forum then you must have to find a reputable and trusted members with a Legendary rank at least, and only then you should confirm the deal. I would also recommend you to have an escrow so you will be safe from any possible scammers.

You can also purchase Bitcoin from decentralized as well as centralized exchanges. But, if your country has blocked centralized exchanges then you should consider buying from decentralized exchanges. While it's possible to buy Bitcoin from decentralized exchange but still you should be careful when buying from decentralized exchanges. Still, if you find a good and reputable one then you can purchase from them without any issue. When it comes to centralized exchanges then my experience with Binance has been good so far, but still I won't vouch for anyone. Do your own research and then purchase Bitcoin.

I would also advice you to learn about Bitcoin wallets and when you purchased your Bitcoin then withdraw those to your own personal wallet instead of allowing them on those custodial wallets. You should learn about wallet software like Electrum in detail and once you are sure that you have learnt enough about it then create your wallet with that software and save your Private key and Pass phrase in a secure location.  I would also encourage you to make your wallet a cold wallet because if it is connected to internet then you may face problems from hackers.

I assumed you participated in that bounty campiagn you're referring to because I can't see any bounty related post in your post history.

I just scanned the first five addresses on polygon scan and they all recieved their Black stallion token from the campaign, I'm not sure if what you're saying is correct or not as I didn't scan all the wallet addresses but assuming you posted the an address that didn't receive payment as an example it would have being easier to analyse.
And accrding to the information I saw on polygonscan all the addresses received their token on the 15th as stated in their campaign thread.

Btw Op I saw alot of people were rejected in the campaign which means even if they do their weekly or daily task they won't receive any payment, did you by any chance check if your account or the accuont that didn't recieve payment was part of those rejected?

5) As clearly mentioned on the bounty thread and bounty post, the reward distribution already "began" as promised on the 15th of May, 2023, and it is none of your business to decide when we end it. I know that you hurry up not to be caught for cheating. However, it is our right to make additional investigations about cheaters.

We have distributed over 500,000 USD worth of rewards publicly, honestly, and fairly to date. Therefore, our followers already know our reputation is more considerable than only the ~$800 value of the remainder of BS token distribution.

No need for blah blah, my question is very sample, why you not distributed tokens? why you break your promise? if you distributed 500,000$ then why you hesitate to distribute these token to hunters. If someone late to make report form one day you not giving stake because he reported weekly task one day and here you are already late 8 days, your reputation should also be questionable.
