Re: Elon musk is for crypto or just for attention to boost Tesla, SpaceX?
by

Twitter was an expensive deal for Musk to take over the media platform. The first set of interest payments on the loans he took to acquire twitter was from I heard $1billion to his lenders.
https://fortune.com/2023/01/18/elon-musk-twitter-sales-revenue-interest-payment-loans-debt

My guess will be him selling more stock of his other companies or possibly his holdings in bitcoin to offset the next set of interest payments in a couple of months down the road.
Elon Musk's purchase of Twitter could possibly be the biggest mistake from a business standpoint, and this failure might threaten Elon Musk's wealth, because Elon Musk is risking his shares in other owned companies to convey Twitter transactions, according to information Elon Musk obtained funds to admit the Twitter through several sources,
$20 billion of private funds
$13 billion of collateralized loans using Twitter shares generated collateral, while $4 billion of Elon Musk's stake from Twitter.
I heard that he is selling it again or he is looking for a new owner? So maybe you guys are right that he is struggling to operate it. Even at the start, many people are sceptical about this move. He sure is a businessman but this wasn't just his field. He is into space, rockets and cars. Not some kind of a social media lol.

It's crazy to know that Twitter is only just a social media but it is taxing him a lot of money compared to his other more serious projects. IDK if Elon still has a Bitcoin on his stash but if he still has it then he might sell it and this will badly interrupt the momentum that we are seeing now. Phew, this guy never fails to disappoint us.

Re: When You Heard About Bitcoin For the First Time?

It is not the first time that I heard about bitcoin that got my interest, but more like second time. The idea was that you could use it for online payments, and not something to invest, and I miss those days.

Back when I first heard about it, that was a method where I could get paid for my work, I used to do a bit of development, still do, I am in marketing so that means I do development, design and everything else a bit enough to know who I am hiring and how they work, you can't hire someone without knowing how good they are if you have no idea how to do it yourself. So, when I heard that I could work with everyone around the world and just get paid in crypto? That was awesome period, now it's all about investing and trading, very sad.

Right now we are also waiting for the match between Arsenal and Manchester City, of course, because this could be a comparison between the two clubs, especially since they have never even met this season.
It is not impossible that their matches can be decisive as well so that it is more convincing whether one of them deserves to become a champion for the EPL or not.
Their first match of the season had to be postponed for several reasons which made us also have to wait to see who was the best between the two clubs.
After this break we have few matches of these teams against weaker sides which is surely going to be as practice before big game which is going to play between these two sides because surely these matches which are going to play between these two are having action packed environment with test of defence and attach fans surely desperately waiting for these matches, but now we are going to have good improved performance from few other sides as well because these are already doing good job and trying to improve quality for the positive development specially right now Newcastle United is the biggest threat for the top two with Tottenham, Manchester United and now Liverpool is also trying to cut the points difference before this create more problems for them at the end of this season.

Re: Bad economic situation always create more crimes

An idol mind is the devil's workshop when you are jobless and you need to take care of your basic needs, you will start thinking of a way out for yourself since they government cares less about you. Bad economy can lead so many people astray to  commit crime in a high level especially the poor ones that have no hope to feed.

Recession is a key factor to crime due to lost of jobs,high cost of commodities and low income only the rich gets richer and the poor gets poorer because the rich are taking advantage of the situation. Bad economy can come from bad leaders that are not concerned about their citizens but instead loots the country's funds for themselves and their family.
Idle not idol. When we are jobless, the best thing to do would be to look for another job and not to commit crimes because this can only lead you into trouble. There are governments who care about the situation of their people, if they are not corrupt of course. They can provide relief goods and cash assistance which is great but we should not only depend on it.

We also need to move on our own because these temporary supplies can run out soon and you can't get another after some time. People shouldn't put the blame to the recession but its their fault for not preparing about it. They don't know that recession is a normal thing and can happen unexpectedly.

Re: Bounty campaign question
by

on 21/11/2022, 17:59:06 UTC
Having a reputable bounty manager is somehow needed but not necessary since this could increase the confidence of bounty participants to join on your campaigns. There's a lot of scam campaigns which can possibly affect your program if this is not been handle well by experience person. But its not mandatory but if you think your team is good enough and can handle the job then its fine you can run a campaign on your own but make sure you have an escrow to secure the funds of participants so that the community can tell that you are serious with the campaign you are running willing to pay everyone who made efforts on your marketing campaign.
I just noticed that you are saying that a reputable bounty manager is not necessary and not mandatory. Tell me, do you have a hidden hate with some of the reputable managers? Or maybe you are hiding something from us here? Hhmm. It come to your own mouth that a reputable bounty manager can attract participants but isn't that a good thing for the project? This means they will be promoted properly.

Another thing which can help attract participants in a campaign is when the participants see that the funds are escrowed but there are some participants who will check first if the escrowed tokens are listed on a good exchange or it has a good volume or not.

Ouch that 97' own goal by Brentford  Embarrassed
Well you can't really complain about luck when Leeds made that comeback from 1:3 to win 4:3 Smiley That is already the moment I count my ticket as lost and it goes into the dumpster if it is a paper version. Never had to dig for it, just saying Smiley

Though luck anyway. There were some crazy results in Premier League yesterday and even crazier games. Hopes it continues today, it makes for a great entertainment.

That was indeed insane Trofo. Insane to watch , insane to have a bet on it and also insane to hold your feelings while you watch the game haha. Great entertainment but on high BPM but Leeds game was a beauty to watch  Grin + a lot of great games today than can live up to the hype. First game should be Chelsea - Arsenal right ? We all hope here for Arsenal to take those essential 3 points.

Any luck in CS:GO ? I feel like I'm watching Dota TI lately , because it's full of surprises. Cloud 9 got NaVi last night and I understand that Cloud 9 are ex Gambit players who dominated the league for almost 2 years but they come from Conteders places and barely made it out of them , just to beat the GOD of CS:GO S1mple and his team NaVi...unbelievable.  Shocked

EDIT : Arsenal did it  Shocked
I would guess that its even better that way, would give you a lot more to cheer for. Obviously Brentford made it all go down the drain, but if I was given an option to bet on a team that wins 3-0 with all 3 goals coming in the first 10 minutes nad be relaxed, versus given an option that my team is losing 0-3 and then come back and win 4-3 to make me win my bet, then I would pick the comeback too. Its just doesn't make sense I know, why would you want that much heart racing for a bet, but that's more fun isn't it?

We watch the superhero movies not because they beat the bad guys, but because they go through hardship just like regular people even though they are superheros before they could beat the villian, so we feel if even the superhero went through hard time to get a win, we could go over our bad times as well.

Re: Why Bitcoin is the most Preferred Choice
by
tam31
on 05/11/2022, 17:59:02 UTC
For me there is a simple reason; it is not controlled by the governments. As someone who comes from a nation with corrupt officials, fiat means that there will be people at the top who will give themselves a lot, and make the money less worthy, so the money I own will worth less and less, while they don't have to worry about that because they get rich faster than the inflation rate because they can print more for themselves.

This is why, I moved to bitcoin because they can't ruin this. Doesn't mean big nations can't, USA or China may try, but my nation is so small and corrupt that they can't even ruin Zimbabwe, let alone ruin bitcoin so I have no worries about it.

Re: 8 Years ago today, $500,000 worth of bitcoin was distributed to MIT students.
by
tam31
on 02/11/2022, 18:42:23 UTC
Yes ofcourse, considering bitcoin was so cheap and so new back then, it made sense to distribute it among the students.
I wonder if any of those students still hold their coins they would be so happy right now.
I guess what MIT did back then was an important step for bitcoin and it did created an impact in starting the widespread adoption.
Btc isn't really cheap now. Will it mean it's more valuable now to hodl than to gave it away? It's sad but this is the mindset of the people. They will only value things once they know that they can benefit out of it. It is said that the students are given an option to spend their coins so they spend it right away. If not then some will likely sell it during the pump but if there are students who manage to keep their btc up until now, I don't think their reaction is happy because this year is a dump year. They will regret and think they should have sold their btc last year although there is still a chance for the bull to return so maybe they will wait once more.

Re: May we have 2 independent networks?
by
tam31
on 27/10/2022, 18:48:03 UTC
I don't think it’s possible, is it? I mean if we have two different chains then it's two different chains, we cannot have two different networks and then call it the same thing. Meaning we could have unlimited number of networks not just 2, but they won't be the same thing and this is where the problem starts.

Independent networks would be totally different from each other and that’s a bit of a deal, and can't be used interchangeably when something happens to one of them. But we shouldn't be worried, bitcoin is too strong to have these kinds of issues, it's strong and even if there is something wrong, we move on and just don't worry about anything else.

Re: High inflation is causing GLOBAL protests

on 26/10/2022, 14:30:28 UTC
Inflation this year alone is just too brutal, thank God for Cryptocurrency, had to be using my saved USDT for family support. The value of my country's currency is at it weakest, this I think may create some kind of civic revolution in my nation where younng innovative minds will take over the economy and political leadership themselves. Gas is just too expensive and food. Once Food and gas are out of reach, then you can expect a massive protest or even a bloodless revolution.
The rates of the inflation are rising so fast this year. This is different from the previous years. Other than the inflation, there's also wars which makes the price of the goods even higher but luckily we have cryptos which can save us when those economic problems attack. This is where people hide their money and they can also pull out some of it once they badly needed it. Usdt is a stable coin which are great if you don't like the instability of the standard crypto.

It's not easy to take over the position of someone else but it must be done in a proper way. If they think they are a good leader then why not join the politics next time? You can then encourage other to vote for them.

Re: 2022 is the time to buy or sell?

on 20/10/2022, 18:58:02 UTC
Both. buying decision during Q1 of 2022, was bad. cause market got down and still under bear attack. Although nobody knew that market can dump but buying crypto with that high price like $50-60k was bad idea. There's a Policy that, never buy crypto when that already pump too much and market will dump after pump! Whatever now Q4 of 2022, giving opportunity. Who brought crypto with their ath, can buy crypto and Average the loss. Thus loss will be covered but don't know how long need to wait.
Quarter 1 must be a time for selling. It's better to sell and take a little more than seeing your money gets shattered slowly but like you said no one expects this to happen. There's no way to tell if what can happen next. A lot of us are expecting that the fall on q1 is only lite but it will then recover later on so they refuse to sell.

There might be some kind of a policy on here but it was still up to the person. They still have the rights to do what they want and disobey any rules. We are now in quarter 4 and if there are any opportunities here, that will only be buying since the price is showing a signs of a decline and many of us claims that the bottom is near.

Re: Now is the perfect time to invest in Bitcoin
by

on 20/10/2022, 12:49:40 UTC
Logically we know that when the price of crypto falls it acts as an investment opportunity and that is the time to invest there.  But at different times it can be seen that different coins are scammed at the last minute but since Bitcoin is one of the first coins of cryptocurrency and known as the godfather of all coins, Bitcoin will never become a scam, so now the price of Bitcoin is very low and the market is very dip, so you can think about investment now.
Not everyone knows about that though, it feels like it is something known, I feel the same way as well but the more newbies I talked to, the more I realized that it’s not as simple as you might imagine.

There are some people who would like to end up with selling bitcoin when it is going down, and I know that sounds silly if you are a long term investor, and understand that the price of bitcoin will always go up, but that doesn't change the fact that it will not be as simple for them because they just get scared too easily and believe that the price would have to go down even harder, and they could buy later on when it’s very low, when you and I know it won't go that low.

Re: where to invest with 30 000 usd
by
tam31
on 20/10/2022, 11:10:50 UTC
There are many options to choose from depending on whether you can manage it or not. The amount of $30K USD is a lot in my opinion, you can use it to buy good coins like Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB or Matic. With a bear market like this, if you want to get maximum profit, it will be very difficult. But if you want to trade long term it is the wisest choice. So think carefully before you act, because the possibility of loss is still there if it is at the wrong time.
Correct. 30,000$ money can be developed quickly and in many ways for now. like now the price of altcoins is low at the base we can buy enough, save long term and do staking so that we can get a decent profit to increase the balance. or following IDO, IEO on the binance market, gate.io this can grow your money. I wouldn't be confused if I had that much money
With all the things that you mentioned, I think op will actually be confused if where he will invest his 30k dollars but he can just choose one or two of them so that it will be easy for him to divide his money and to focus about his investment. The guy above you didn't say that 30k usd can be developed quickly but what he said there is actually the opposite.

Any forms of money, big or small is hard to develop right now, now that we are still in a bear and it's said to last for a long time but everything is possible for a person which has a lot of patience. That's one of the things that we need right now other than a capital and some crypto knowledge.

Re: FIFA World Cup 2022 Group Stage Highlights
by

on 19/10/2022, 22:13:28 UTC
The Netherlands does not have many players who shine like squads from other countries, only a few players who have top names.  however, that does not mean their performance will be very doubtful in this world cup stage. after all they have statistics that are quite impressive, in 15 matches, they played quite well and smoothly without defeat.

meaning, their probability of qualifying in the next group stage is wide open compared to other contestants who are members of group A. and, maybe in the Qatar world cup later, they could give us a surprise.
as for the other three contestants, such as Senegal, Ecuador, Qatar, they must at least try to beat the Netherlands if they want to qualify for the next phase.
The team nicknamed the Oranje in the previous tournament had to be absent because they failed to pass the 2018 world cup qualifying phase, but this year the Netherlands managed to win a direct ticket to the Qatar world cup finals after beating Norway 2-0, indeed on paper the Netherlands has a tradition better when compared to the other three teams, if they are in the best condition the Netherlands can reach the final, because the Dutch national team has reached the world cup final three times, the last time they almost won the 2010 world cup trophy, before finally being defeated by Spain in the final. .
After missing last world cup now Netherlands back into business with they are surely one of the best team in Europe and have quality players those are capable of having good results against top teams, and they are one of the unluckiest team in world cup history only team who lost three finals and never won any title in this event.

Here few are feeling they could be in last four which is possible but for this they have to done good job first in group stage where they are going to face African Champions Senegal then host country Qatar and last one Ecuador which is also difficult team to play on papers things are looking easy, but things could be clear as they will be in ground for their matches.

Re: Are you ready to spend crypto when market is down
by
tam31
on 16/10/2022, 18:45:50 UTC
The problem is that, crypto is a currency, the full name is actually "crypto currency", which means that it would gain a lot more value if people earned it and spent it, just like how you do with regular fiat. But unfortunately there are too many people that use it as stocks or gold, where it is an asset and they just invest and hold and do not ever spend it. If you don't spend it then it won't gain any value, it will only be an investment and would be used as such and that is causing a lot of troubles for us. We need to turn this into a currency, and if we do that then we are going to end up with a good amount of profit in the long run for sure.

Re: Is Bearish market the right time to buy coins?
by

on 14/10/2022, 06:40:43 UTC
I think there is no steady increase that happens in the market of cryptos. Some coins experience an increase but it's moving in a zigzag pattern. Also, there are no coins that increase two times their price. That's hard to achieve in a market conditions like this. It's not shocking as well to see them falling but their movements are sometimes like that if they don't show a small recovery but the title of your thread is correct.

Bearish market is really the best time for purchasing a crypto coin but as usual, you must also choose the coin that you are going to invest very wisely and it would be better if you can just choose a more known coin, if you still lack experience.

There are coins in your list which are already famous that id say on the same level of solana. Coins like near and ftm but I don't know about the others. They look foreign to me so I assume that they are much newer and haven't gain enough momentum yet. They may be a good investment for the long term because I believe that you already carefully choose them op.

Top coins can grow in value but it's also possible for their value to dump hard when there is a bearish run so investing on them is still possible. What is only good about them is that there are more guarantee that they can recover than to those projects who are still new.

It is clear that Max owes so much to Perez during this season, and of course last season as well. It was thanks to him that he won at Suzuka, but he is also a great driver himself as well. That run at the first turn where he passed Charles so fast even during wet tire conditions, that was something epic only the greats could do, not many of the younger guys under 30 could go that turn at that weather with that much speed.

But that’s the thing that makes him great isn't it? He never yields, and he attacks no matter what, he could crash out and he would rather crash out than yield the position, which is the reason why he won 2 in a row now.
