Re: Ways on how to be financially protected and secured.

Remember,there are perhaps millions of human and maybe billions of electronic bots out there that are trying to steal from what you have worked-out your life to build,so is time to put in some effort to protect yourself and your assets against any potential attack.
Everyone who has a lot of activities online should have a good awareness to protect everything we have. Including finances and personal data.
We know and certainly have encountered quite a lot of attempts by scammers to deceive and hack accounts and assets that we have. That way we cannot ignore how we can protect the assets we store. Always limit suspicious activity. Never be tempted to attractive offers from accounts that we don't even know.
It is funny to see how many people say that everyone should do it, but very few people actually do it and probably many from those who recommend it also don't do it.  Grin

Re: 8 months ago Microsoft voted against putting bitcoin on their balance sheet.

Not a very smart move. Larry Fink does not approve.

MS had tens of billions in cash to invest. Would it have killed them to allocate
just a tiny bit, maybe $10 million or so to bitcoin?
You are underestimating the size of MS. Even if they risked $1 billion and it turned to dust, it would make absolutely no impact at them at all.

So why would any sane person want to hold that shit? I swear the MS Board of Directors
and shareholders are dumb as dirt. Meanwhile their worthless bonds are losing value faster
than a melting ice cube.
This was a very stupid decision and it shows. However, perhaps there are deeper interests and all kinds of kickbacks involved here that we don't see. Help the government with bonds, we help you with something else kinda thing.

Re: Will stablecoins push cryptocurrencies to new heights?
by

Perhaps if stablecoins are a new source of liquidity because traditional exchanges don't get the job done. What kind of stablecoin is better?

1. USD PEGGED
2. GOLD PEGGED
3. EURO PEGGED
USD of course. I don't think a GOLD pegged coin should be called a stablecoin, because it is not that stable. The same would happen with a Bitcoin pegged coin. That said, there is a lot of stablecoin liquidity already but it is still on the sidelines. I think once this liquidity starts buying up Bitcoin and coins it will push us into a real new bull run.

The sentiment is very positive, but there is no FOMO right now in the market. You can look at sentiment analysis and greed index.

A lot of KOLs are still talking about risks and reminding everyone to be cautious. Maybe they're waiting to see BTC price retest 112K USD to confirm support before the uptrend continues Smiley
All KOLs are scammers, don't read what they are writing.

The hodlers have never regretted it thus far.
I try not to think of bitcoin in terms of how much USD it's worth.
It is better not to because it is difficult to calculate anyway the real value in USD terms as you have to price in inflation and the loss of value that USD experiences.

Well I do not want to say it is like that a scam. There is some people that did make gains from investing in it. But for me I will not invest in any project that is like Pepe.

And I do not think if you hodl it for along time you will make alot of profit. We will make alot more profit if we hodl meme coins like Doge or Shib.
For every dollar that someone has made, someone else has lost it. Just because insiders profited and a few lucky individuals that does not make something legitimate. All of these projects are scams.

Exchange CEOs are not our friends, sure CZ posts funny memes & stuff on X but these guys are not on our side. Both him & Brian Armstrong Coinbase run shit coin casinos. They don’t care about us & don’t really care about Bitcoin. It’s all about listing shit coins & making billions in fees. They probably trade against customers too, as they have order book depth & all types of info.
This is so true! All they care about is making money that is why they list any and every shitcoin and scam coins after they pay for the listing fees. If they had any integrity, they would not do this.

In this particular situation I blame the platform. A platform should not allow you to make a trade at huge slippage without providing significant warnings and asking you whether you are sure you will proceed.

Well if you did lose alot of gains from Pepe coin now there is a new pepe coin. It is called LILPEPE and a investor does think it will is going to make alot of profit. The man who did make $100 Million from the pepe coin run does think it will be the next big meme coin.

I do not know if I will invest in this new meme coin.  I did lose some of my capital in Pepe but I will see if this new meme coin will make alot of investors rich.

https://www.cryptopolitan.com/crypto-millionaire-with-100m-made-from-pepe-coins-pepe-run-thinks-this-is-the-next-meme-coin-to-explode/
Nah!

If we do speak about different variations of $PEPE when we do have thousands in the market already and eventually die after the time they do announce or simply most of these meme coins are just that pure scams.
There are just that those times that you would be that optimistic basing up on what you are that investing because you've been seeing others becomes millionaires with meme coins and once the hype is on the peak then you would be getting FOMO and if that happens then you woudl definitely be trying out to chase it up and thats the reason people do end up on holding up shitcoins into their bags and losing up all the money they do have. There are those times that you do feel like on giving up but in the end of the day you would be that still going back just because you do want to hit up that right spot. In regarding into the thing on whats being mentioned on @OP then this do talks about slippage and other technical things on which it would be truly a disaster if you do mixed up those things or put up on wrong setting or what. Always double check when it comes into this aspect if you dont want to have some disaster.
All PEPE variations are scams, I agree with you. There were so many ones, and they were created in all kinds of models and they all fail. It does not matter if it is a community token or a presale, all PEPE clones fail and they deserve to fail. What is the use case of a pepe clone except to enrich the founder and insiders? There is no community, there are no memes or active people, no utility, no merch, nothing.

Re: Does token burn contributes to surge in price?
by

on 15/07/2025, 01:12:09 UTC
It does not, no. Only deflationary mechanisms that involve taking away coins from the market and burning them do. There are many cases where a team prints tokens for itself, and later burns them. Burning tokens that you created for nothing and were never in circulation does not benefit the market price, it is more of a marketing stunt to ignite attention. The best kind of burns are those that happen because of active usage or through buy back and burn from sharing platform or service fees.

Whats crazy is the token is being run while President is in office, of course its going to lead to conflicts of interest.   I cannot blame the private individual for the mistake of someone in public office, that would be perverse, I have no doubt CZ wants a pardon I would too and best time to ask is under this crypto friendly administration.
The wide and deep network of companies, NGOs and funds that are run by democrats and receive money from any and every possible government budget do not create any conflicts of interest. No, only the TRUMP token is a big problem. This is all good otherwise.  Roll Eyes

Re: Telegram tap-to-earn projects

Waste of time. Most Telegram tap-to-earn projects and airdrops are sh*t. A legit way to sc*m money from those who got hyped lol.

Imagine, most TG airdrops always have a "SPENDING" part where the more you spend, the bigger the return. Then the listing time comes, disappointment at its finest. They don't force anyone to spend, but it always happens when you navigate their respective app. They even put that as a requirement to become eligible for their TGE. Smiley
Exactly. Who and why would someone buy the token of a shitty tap to earn game? They are all pretty much destined to fail for one or the other reason. The few people that got a decent amount of money from the few successful early airdrops is what caused so many people to become greedy and hooked to this crap.

Anybody with experience would have realized that it could easily mean his own death if he shut off the fuel flow. The fuel would have had to been shut off some little time before the plane started its way down the runway. Could a saboteur have left the plane before it started its runway journey?

Unlikely with so many eyes and cameras around. I would not prioritize considering very improbable if not implausible scenarios just yet. People need to learn some patience. This is a big disaster both for India and for Boeing, I don't think they can afford a coverup of any kind.

Re: U .S to lose over seven Million jobs aimed Trade war by the end of 2025

UN International Labor Organization has cut its global employment forecast for 2025 by 7 million. It happened cause trade-war disruptions and geopolitical tensions. I think it really affect to people cause 53 million new jobs are expected instead of 60 million. And its not only a problem for Canada, Mexico, but also Asia Pacific jobs bind to usa demand are at risk.

Actually I think UN's 7 million is not just only propaganda, I've seen well known economists like  Larry Summers have warned of a inherent recession and the loss of 2 million domestic jobs due to tariffs.
It is not the tariffs that are the cause of bad global economics, but they are a good boogeyman to blame.

By the way, living with 20 other illegal migrants in a rathole is a terrible life and there are lots of people who live that way. But you mentioned a good point, illegals pay no taxes and sometimes they really earn more than legal citizens. I've seen that in my life and I was shocked.
It happens both in the USA and the EU at the detriment of many and for the benefit of the few. Illegal migrants should not be a thing, that is a problem that can be solved easily with force.

Cant wait to sell all my altcoins it’s getting tiring now , can’t believe they are still this low in price really don’t get this bull run some of the prices of my altcoins are same as they were few years ago.
You are were wrong, I expected no cuts and I was right. I don't think you will see in Q4 what you expect to see either, unless there are massive rate cuts. From what I can see so far, they will need to fire the chairman first.

Lesson learned at least, will sell all my altcoins when we see some kind of altseason this year and then just be in Bitcoin for a few years.
What makes people certain that there will ever be an altcoin season again or anytime soon?  Smiley

Re: Are masternodes still profitable in 2025?
by
cryptotact11
on 17/06/2025, 13:09:28 UTC
Dash masternode cost you around 20k USD. Meanwhile, it can only give you 2100 yearly. Imo this is quite small.

It means it takes around 9,5 years to get ROI, but you can also sell your Dash used for masternode anytime.

Getting 5,7 usd daily seems worthy enough. However, it totally depending on the price of Dash.
Where did you get this information? Care to share your source? Sorry for my ignorance, but it's been a long time since I've been away from masternode-based coins.
Looks like it was this website https://masternodes.online/currencies/DASH/.

Besides Dash, I've found Horizen to be an attractive option with its "Tiered Masternodes" model. It's much more affordable than Dash. Although, I'm not sure how profitable ZEN masternodes would be. If Dash's developer team lowered the required collateral to run a masternode, things would've been better. Dash would be more decentralized as a result of increased accessibility. It seems that there aren't many masternode-based coins these days. So the future of Dash and similar coins is bleak. Staking PoS coins would be a better option, imo.
It is better and much safer to use AAVE or similar and supply stablecoins there.

Re: From Losing Everything in FTX to Starting Over With Bitcoin

on 16/06/2025, 20:23:28 UTC
@OP congrats bro, secure your funds on a different wallet or exchange now! 

You've been a member of this forum since 2017 and should have learned the difference between an exchange and a non-custodial wallet a long time ago.
For sure he knows that, if his money is diversified then it's reasonable that there are allocated money in some CEX, the only problem here is the CEX, FTX is a good exchange back then, yes but at that time there are many good CEX exists that qualify the most in terms of accountability. Also, it's for the convenience especially if you want quick trades and always do P2P transactions in your country, and some of the CEX are insured, it's like storing money in the bank already. I get it, it's more secured for a non-custodial wallet but can't deny the fact there's accountability to CEX too that makes you feel secure to put some money in. The current era of digital is being developed, a lot of people storing money to digital banks nowadays and people find it secure as long as the bank have a good reputation, same with exchanges. Also, maybe he's trading and using the platform for the leverage or for staking, no one knows better ask him than questioning his knowledge.
FTX was never a good exchange, that is where your wrong ideas lie. If many prominent people are writing online that a CEX is good and secure, does that make it so? No. FTX was an overhyped, dangerous project run by 2 incompetent loonies. All you had to do was take a good look at the kid's picture to know that he should not be running anything that deals with money. Instead of looking into his picture and using their heads, people were reading positive reviews from others based on their reputation.

Happy for you. I didn't believe ordinary people would actually get refunded what they lost.
I just got a question out of curiosity. The money you had was it in bitcoin, and if it was, did they give you back the actual amount it was, or did they give you what it would be worth at the time they refunded?
I already asked about this in another way. They got a good deal on the dollar amount, but they still lost in crypto amounts. Of course they didn't get the full amount back.

Russia won't be producing any such 'backwards' bombers as those that were destroyed. They are-building/have-built next generation bombers that are far in advance of those that were destroyed.

And with the strength of China and North Korea behind them, and the Israel-Iran war increasing oil prices, Russia is sitting in a stronger and stronger position all the time. Nobody can sanction Russia out of world economics.

Cool
Western shills are delusional. If the roles were reversed, and Ukraine was the one that has been building the next generation bombers for some time now already they would be celebrating it. Instead they are dismissing it, because they can't stop drinking kool-aid.  Roll Eyes

Re: Airdrop Discussion Generally

on 15/06/2025, 14:33:43 UTC
Chasing airdrops in the good old days use to not just fun but also lucrative, but right now what they normally does is to build a strong community, use them to make money by compelling them to watch videos on YouTube and some adds videos, after all the works and hassle, they will give them peanut, and these types of airdrops mostly happens in telegram mini games, though the other airdrop outside telegram are still cool, but seeing an airdrop that will make you a fortune like in the good old days is very rare, that's why me personally have given up on AirDrop long time ago, since they now focus more on milking their community instead of rewarding them for the works.
I strongly disagree here, airdrops do not build communities anymore. There are too many people who consider farming airdrops as a job, but that is very bad. You can look at any project that has a good airdrop to confirm my statement. As soon as the airdrop farming is over and distribution has been done, the activity in their telegram and discord drops dramatically. This means that in most cases airdrops are not effective at building a community, instead they only attract farmers who are stealing money and moving away.

Re: Coins rising back from the dead?

on 15/06/2025, 12:58:43 UTC
Pretty much each revival is a scam. There is not a single good reason for why something like this should happen. Why take insane risks to help others get scammed?

Won't SOLANA be the perfect example for this? Solana lost most of its value years ago but now we see it being considered as one of the biggest cryptocurrencies last year extending to this year. It is possible yes but not all the time this happens. You will be lucky to have kept holding on to a coin that has long ago declined.
That is not true. Losing a lot of value does not make it a dead coin, it just means it followed the natural 4 year cycle here.
