With the New Tariffs Hikes around the Globe add it with the Government Economy Policies, Central Banks instructed Commercial Banks to increase their charges and that has caused deducting of different levies from customers' accounts. In that you loss money in the banking system more than spending them. That is you loss money when keeping it in the bank from different levies. Cybersecurity levy, Stamp Duties levy, ATM Surcharge Levy, Maintenance Fee Levy, Intra Scheme Transfer Levy, if you send money out from you account, you pay levy, and if you received money from another account, you will be deducted as well. So you pay levy both in sending and receiving. The commercial banking system in this contemporary world is unbearable but we thank God Bitcoin was invented.
In Bitcoin if you keep your money even 20 years, there is no Levies to pay therefore Bitcoin is the best place to keep your funds for your future used. If someone is sending you $200 in locale in the Banking system, the $200 will not complete but the commercial bank would deduct it part and if you keep that money in the bank, sorry is the Word because the levies will be upon the money.

Keep your money in Bitcoin.

Of course, given where we are at, the number of whole coiners is going to be much lower than the 0.26%, even in the best of equal distribution scenarios that we could imagine going forward.
Natural and/or spread out (or equal) distribution would rarely play out in a free market, and I can hardly imagine any scenarios in which more fair distribution could be attempted to be pushed upon the world and its bitcoin acquisition.. so one of the main solutions end up with individual action, and individual responsibility to try to figure out how to consider how to get as many BTC as they are able to get within their own limited circumstances.  

Surely, if we consider so many rich folks, institutions and governments that are going to try to "stockpile" their own little stash, which likely makes it difficult for normies to hold even more than a million satoshis... which likely means that it would be good to buy those million satoshis sooner rather than later, since currently a million-ish satoshis ONLY cost a bit more than $1k.

Edit... and even a nice little buying opportunity as I edit this post.. perhaps we might be able to get some bitcoin for less than 6 digits?  Perhaps? perhaps?.. that means more than 1 million satoshis for $1k.

How many times
Do you think this exact post is been posted in a bitcoin thread with over 30k pages ?

let me guess... he won't answer...

I have a new perspective towards what it means to keep things private. I am thinking that keeping things private does not always mean keeping things to yourself. Before you criticize, I know that to have someone as trusted as that is rare and almost impossible, but they still exist, and sometimes you can find that person in your spouse. If you can share important details like passwords of bank account or safe, or grant them access to important documents, should we not also be able to trust these people with access to our bitcoin wallet?

I don't believe things will go that far, and the reason they were shut down is that they enhance privacy for BTC users, and we all know the government is targeting any service that enhances privacy, by charging them for allowing money launderers conceal their tx's. So Electrum and some of the services you mentioned do not fall under this category, because they do not enhance privacy or make it hard to track BTC tx's.

I have long wanted to discuss the following topic with users and participants in gambling discussions. Do you think Nassim Teleb's philosophy can be of any use in gambling? His various ideas and theories? Let me just list some of his ideas and you can comment on how, if any, benefits can be gained from this:
1. Ideas from the book “Fooled by Randomness.” There are many ideas that boil down to the fact that we often mistake randomness for a pattern.
2. Ideas from the book “Black Swan”. Strategies based on anticipation of the Black Swan.
3. Ideas from the book “Antifragile.” By the way, the concept of “barbell” is also from this book. Keep 90% of the bank in conservative assets and 10% in high-risk assets.
4. Ideas from the book “Skin in the Game”.
If you think any of these ideas can be applied to gambling, explain why you think so and how specifically it can be applied. If you believe that Nassim Taleb's ideas only apply to options trading and not to gambling, tell us more about your position.

True that there is limitation to what money can buy, specifically life, and there are sickness that money cannot cure. Aside that bro money is actually very important because there is no way you can do anything or even survive in this world without money. True that money does not give actual happiness but give you excitement and access to what ever you want to buy talk of luxury and comfort money will give you full access. And when you have money especially a lot of money it will come a time that you will feel like your lacking something. It is better to give meaning to life than just money, make friends have fun be kind and treat people well, that is what we call life not just buying and spending. Make people happy and help does you can.

Well I think what you said (the word I underlined) is the most appropriate thing if it talks about how they value time. They are always more appreciative of time and they try to make the most of every moment they spend very well and effectively. So that no time is wasted. I think I just realized this. And well it seems I also have to start appreciating every time I live. Sometimes I don't use my time effectively. when I'm on holiday I prefer to be lazy even though I can use that time to do useful things. And yes they also know the value of money. So they only use it for things that are useful and can bring more profit.

Not sure what's the reason behind this pump but most of the time XLM moves like this when XRP is also pumping, it's a good timing for those who bought a week ago as the profits is almost 40% now and we all know when some pump happened with the coin, those who manage to see a good amount of earnings will think of selling and collecting their profits.

Let see if the week will end with continuous positive run for this coin. Just be very careful with your decision in case you are still playing/investing with this asset.

I agree with number 1 and 3, but 2 should be a little different. It is true that we should be investing most of our excess money but not having to save any of it will be hard specially during unexpected circumstances. There are instances that we will be needing money right off the bat and since all of our money are outside for investment it will be hard for us. Instead, I think it will be best to have both savings and investments.

I think in our forum yeah, there are some courses or quiz being put up by our distinguished member to test ourselves and obviously to tell us that we need to take cybersecurity very seriously.

But outside? I doubt that newbies are performing this courses, maybe they saw it, but they just bypass and go directly acquiring crypto and then going online which put it as risk.

Because if we don't know or we are just relax with everything we do, hackers are everyone. Just one click from unknown sources, and then your crypto is gone.

The Need to Teach Kids About Bitcoin I don't understand why everyone wants to teach kids about Bitcoin. What do you do by teaching children about Bitcoin from an early age? Everything has a certain age, beyond that age if you want to do those things then the results of those things will never be good. It is the duty of every parent to ensure that children have a good childhood where if you try to teach them about Bitcoin, it will disrupt their normal growth. There is no need to teach children about bitcoins If you really want to educate your children about bitcoins then you can teach them different things about bitcoins when your child crosses a certain age limit.

People will indeed find it easier to run something when they have enough experience and education for a thing. But to achieve these two things, of course everyone also needs money at first which will usually be given by our respective parents in life. Because without basic help from our respective parents, of course everyone will find it difficult to walk or to do something that we need in life. That is why education and experience are important so that a person can achieve the benefits in his life as we desire.

Yes definitely don't leave any coins laying around on the exchange, the security risk is way too high. When we recommend it teach somebody about bitcoin and other crypto coins it's important that we make them aware of the security risks. There have been big scandals in the past and it's up to all of us to not repeat the same mistakes again. In my family only one person is holding also crypto currencies, my cousin. Last year for his birthday I made a small crypto portfolio for him to store his coins. He hasn't really bought any by himself, but I am going gift him some again this year for his birthday. Among my friends it's a bit different, I would say that 60-70% own a few bitcoins but aren't really using them for purchases. Because I kept talking so much about cryptos they all wanted to get invested as long term investment that might pay off in a few years. Only one of my friends trades still in CSGO skins and uses bitcoin for that.

Being or getting blamed is the main reason on why i dont really tend to share up this crypto opportunity among others or even into my relatives because i dont really like that the would really be blaming me on the time that they are seeing their portfolio is on reds.I have that bad experience on the time i had explained it to my cousin and on the time comes where the market did make some -20% on his portfolio then
he had been speaking bad things about me and blaming me out.After that, i didnt tend to explain it out on the time that someone do ask out about it because
i dont like to experience the same thing again.

The education I'm talking about here isn't your regular college or university degrees, I mean education that has to do with skills development as that's what is more important in today's economy. Your collage degree won't make you financially strong but taking courses to acquire skills that are been search after could move you a step closer to that goal.

Know your financial limits in advance and plan wisely so that you can achieve your goals in the long term.
You can't get rich if you don't have savings that you then invest in assets that can bring you profit, but first think about how you manage it while you can't ignore the necessities of life.

If you have sufficient income, I think you can plan this idea well. But on the other hand, if your income is only able to meet your daily needs, please don't expect something big without doing something big.
