Sorry, my world revolves round web3 and blockchain is an integral part of it. 80% of my transactions are on blockchain; believe me or not!

There you go again. The very fact you mention web3 shows you don’t understand the technology.

 

[Gordon - Commercial Finance]

Simply put, blockchain is a system of similarly programmed computers that stores and record transaction information in a way that these data cannot be changed, modified or control by anyone

I love the use of "Simply put" here. Incredible entertainment value.

 

[Gordon - Commercial Finance]

Haha!! I'm being honest; you just need to do your own research to realize self-conviction. That's the basic rule

We've all done our own research - we're not idiots. You're trying to foist your research on us and your opinion of this completely farcical "market" while in the same breath saying we should DYOR? We have, and the general consensus here is that Bitcoin is nonsense. You would know that if you had read a few boards before spamming the forum.

 

[BashirJasper]

There you go again. The very fact you mention web3 shows you don’t understand the technology.

At this point, I think it's better you tell me what you know about this technology.

I don’t know anything about the technology. But I do know when someone has copied something from Wikipedia or wherever. Maybe you are doing ok trading in bitcoin. What you aren’t doing very well is explaining how we can do the same.

To be fair ****** is the currency of web3 (NFT's, Metaverse, etc.). It's not possible to participate in web3 without ******.

However, investing in ****** currencies is gambling. The 'greater fool' principle was mentioned previously very wisely. An enormous number of people have been burnt by ****** trading and NFT purchases but we don't always hear about that side without knowing that world.

Warren buffet said "The stock market is a device for transferring money from the impatient to the patient".
****** speeds up that process.

 

[Gordon - Commercial Finance]

It irks a little that the common parlance of "cryptocurrency" is so widely accepted. Its not a currency, its a tradeable commodity.

Actually something like CryptoCom could be a fresh marketing approach for the fools.

 

[fisicx]

Yes, but web3 only really exists as a concept. It's what the blockchain enthusiasts hope will happen (it won't). It's like when everybody got excited about web2.0. People had been participating in newsgroups and chatrooms for years. All that changed was the technology enabling everyone to take part on a wider scale.

 

[Shopclicks]

Far from just a concept. NFT's are traded every day and the future of NFT's could be the best thing that's ever happened to the creator sector (outside of the bubble burst that already happened). Unfortunately, the NFT platforms only accept ****** as payment. Not a fan.

 

[Nonstopspider]

Is slowly becoming a reality, Especially when you see companies that talked trash about ****** not so long ago and now are on the exact other side (JP Morgan, HSBC, etc). And the Adoption and knowledge of ****** are not even worldwide spread. If someone wants to make profits (high ones) the time is now. Dollar Cost Average is a good way to start

 

[GraysonDigital]

Indeed I think focusing too hard on the short terms trials/tribulations and price action isnt the best way to go about it when it comes to ******. As stated by other members above ****** or blockchain technology more specifically is a long term technology trend, one just like the internet and web2. Now some might not like to compare the two but ultimately they are both foundational technologies, technologies that arent necessarily themselves applications but rather platforms/networks for different applications to be built upon. Now finding value amongst the individual cryptocurrencies is the tough part but spotting the value in the technology and the sector overall is simple. It's as simple as realizing that new products and applications always gravitate to what is the most efficient, most secure and drives the most cost savings. Blockchains offer the around the clock liquidity, fastest/lowest latency settlement and cheapest price to transmit value while assets like Bitcoin itself present themselves as the most resilient and censorship resistant stores of value that humanity has ever come across. its important to focus on the mechanisms that they can use to create actual value and which projects can are actually delivering these.

What on earth are you on about.

There is nothing resilient about the value of ******. It will never stabilise because it can't. Blockchain will never be what it should be because it's tied to ****** currencies.

Perhaps this thread should be moved to 'Timeout' too - It's not really about business!

Not up to me. If you think that's where this belongs report it.

Just like "Industry 4.0" from my previous day job. I see they're now talking about "Industry 5.0".

Well, people belief and opinions are always different. If Bitcoin and ****** were a fraud, I wonder why renowned asset management firms like Blackrock, Fidelity and Ark are filing for Bitcoin spot ETF! Even Lary Finks of Blackrock calls Bitcoin "international asset".

On June 12 this year, Bank of China issued $28million in digital structured notes using Ethereum blockchain (another important application of blockchain technology).
To be honest, I think adoption of blockchain is increasing across board and the trading of Bitcoin spot ETF is gonna open the potentials of digital economy because Bitcoin ETF functions as paper Bitcoin instead of the imaginary value lots of people have been taking it for. In that form, it can be used as a hedge against inflation

Yes its interesting how diverse the opinions are on the ****** world, quite a divide out there. As far a trading goes it not hard to get your head around its just another commodity it goes up it comes down. The institutions are all holding there breath at the moment waiting for the latest applications that have been put forward to the SEC and there's a pretty good chance one will get approved linked to the bitcoin & Coinbase platform hence Bitcoin hovering around its current price (but DYOR) Many of the institutions having been filling their coffers of late again helping to push the price, sceptics of course are waiting for the big dump.

Having turned my trading eye back to this area over the last couple of months its quite interesting how many governments are opposed to the ****** world (or have just been caught sleeping) and perhaps the reason could be found in one article I was reading just recently probably summed up the reason "if they don't control the currency they don't control the people"

Going to be interesting how this pans out over the next couple of months, the only thing that you can be sure of is volatility will rain supreme (more opportunities) but you can see that right across the "normal" finacial markets every day.

As they say when the crap hits the fan "if your in - stay in, if your out - stay out"

Buy! Buy! Buy! Sell! Sell! Sell!

Yeah, I agree with you here. Volatility is going to go up and lots of experienced traders will have their long position return huge profits on Bitcoin but for other altcoins, the best bet is to stay holy to price actions or better still study professional traders charts on platforms that offer reliable copy-trading products and use their professionalism to benefit from the volatility

It might be coincedence, but today I've had two unsolicited phone calls from Bitcoin-related scammer types. I wouldn't be surprised if someone was looking at this thread and farming phone numbers from it, just FYI everyone who has commented.

I had one last week.

They got bored when I 'accidentally' continually misunderstood and said I had some kryptonite in my drawer already.

There is A LOT of fraud and scamming in ****** though.

A lot of people see ‘******’ and think of Bitcoin but there are thousands of other cryptocurrencies, and plenty of them have been scams:

Three Arrows Capital which lost over $3 billion of other peoples money and the owners are currently on the run.

Voyager and Celsius spring to mind as major collapses.

FTX and Sam Bankman-Fraud (or was it Bankman-Fried?) who is facing a stretch in jail.

And obviously the MYRIAD of new cryptocurrencies that have promised early investors that they were going to ‘shoot to the moon’ and ended up being rug pulls where the people who set up the currencies basically just rinsed the early investors and left with their money.

There are so many of these rug pulls that it keeps many a YouTube channel in work, my favourite being CoffeeZilla - even so called celebrities such as the Faze Clan and Logan Paul are in on some of these scams.

My thoughts on ****** for what it’s worth:
Bitcoin is an investment market and not a currency (and it never will be)
Don’t invest in any ‘new’ currencies especially if your favourite influencer is setting it up.
Only invest what you can afford to lose, as you probably will.
Don’t listen to anyone who offers investment advise.

While I agree with the first 3, isn't number 4 telling us not to listen to the first 3? ?

Well, guys, speaking about ******, the Token of the devs of ChatGPT is here $WLD. I put this because the UK is one of the countries that supported the Orb Verification and some surely received free tokens during these last months. Try to check the app because is not available yet in all countries But is listed right now. Seeing some charts on bitget I will put an SL if they release any portion of that free tokens, but being the devs of the most famous AI can be a good option in long term

 

[fisicx]

@Nonstopspider - can you translate that into something vaguely comprehensible.

Also, why does your profile say you are in Australia when you are posting from Argentina?

While some claim that the pellet with the poison's in the vessel with the pestle and the chalice from the palace has the brew that is true the pellet with the poison's in the flagon with the dragon it's the vessel with the pestle that has the brew that is true.

...Well that's what I got from it anyway.

But hey, don't cry for me Argentina!

Worldcoin has the developers of ChatGPT, and got huge hype about it, especially for the free tokens that the app "worldcoin" delivered to verified users of the ORB, and the United Kingdom, France, and Germany (examples) people had the chance to encounter a Worldcoin Orb in the streets to access the Free WLD. The token was listed today on strong Exchanges if someone is eager to trade the free tokens, but in the Discord channel people are complaining about the App and why they can access it worldwide. This is a clear sign that the people want to sell so, a Stop Loss is mandatory. Anyone interested in ****** will find this token in the mouths of everyone right now but must be aware of these things

Answering your second question I live in Melbourne (previously Canberra) but I am from there and I work as a customs broker and I have to travel to subsidiaries from other countries (and because I know Spanish my main travels are LATAM and Spain) Hope that solved your doubts

I have no problem wuth your second paragraph.

I do not understand a word of your first. Could you try sepaking as if you are talking to ordinary people? Or just use sentences and no jargon?
